Ye Boxuan quickly wiped away his tears with his hand, embarrassed.
"My nephew or niece?"
"yes."
The two little ones, who had been sitting on their parents' laps, climbed down from their grandparents' legs and walked over to Ye Boxuan. Yueyue stretched out her soft, white hand to wipe his tears; "Cry~ cry~"
Ye Boxuan was stunned. He had never interacted with such a young child before and didn't know what she meant. He looked at his brother.
"Yueyue wants to wipe away your tears."
"oh."
He quickly lowered his head, and Yueyue could see his face. A bright smile appeared on her face. She reached out her small hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes. Her big, watery, black grape-like eyes looked at him with a bright smile, and her eyelashes were long and curled.
"Don't cry, don't cry," the voice was sweet and gentle, and it was very soothing to hear.
Looking at his niece, who was so well-behaved and adorable, Ye Boxuan's heart melted instantly. He reached out his big hand and pulled her onto his lap.
"Yueyue?" he called to her.
When Yueyue heard him call her name, she laughed even harder, kicked her legs, then leaned closer to him and gave him a kiss.
Just then, he felt his pants being tugged. He looked down and met DouDou's bright eyes.
DouDou stretched out her little hand, holding a piece of candy.
"Eat~ Eat~"
Ye Boxuan immediately understood. His nephew was offering him candy, so he excitedly reached out and pulled him onto his other lap.
Xiao Qianqian and Ye Bosen exchanged a glance and smiled simultaneously. Their children were becoming more and more lovable.
"Yueyue, Doudou, your uncle didn't prepare any gifts today. How about I buy you lots and lots of gifts another day?"
Ye Boxuan looked at the two little ones and said gently.
The two little ones nodded; "Okay~ okay~".
"By the way, brother, how are my grandpa and dad?" Ye Boxuan asked while teasing the two little ones.
The others fell silent upon hearing his question.
Ye Boxuan, who was still engrossed in playing with his baby, waited for a long time but did not hear his brother's reply. Sensing something was wrong, he looked up and saw that the expressions of the others were off.
"What's wrong?" he asked, looking at the group of people with a puzzled expression.
"Your grandfather and second uncle... they've passed away." Ye Bosen's voice was low and somewhat hoarse.
"What?" Ye Boxuan was so shocked that he almost stood up before realizing that there were two little people sitting on his lap, and he almost dropped them to the ground.
He quickly sat down and patted them on the back to comfort them.
"Ah Xuan, give Yueyue and Doudou to us."
Fearing that he might startle and drop his grandchildren, Ye Mu quickly reached out to take them.
Ye Boxuan handed the two little figures to his father and mother, his eyes red.
"What happened? They were all fine when I left. How could they have died in such a short time?" Ye Boxuan asked in disbelief, his voice trembling with tears.
"Your mother left, and your father went crazy looking for her. He was either looking for your mother or drinking heavily every day. One day, after getting drunk, Meng Tianze took him to the reservoir and threw him in to drown."
"Meng Tianze? How could he harm my father? My father had no grudge against him." Ye Boxuan's hands were clenched into fists with veins bulging, showing how angry he was.
"Meng Tianze has been arrested. According to his confession, he was acting under orders from someone who was wearing a mask, and he doesn't know who that person is."
"No matter who it is, whoever harmed my father, I will make them pay the price." Ye Boxuan's voice was ruthless.
"Brother, do you have any clues? Who wants to harm my dad?"
“We have people we suspect, but we don’t have any solid evidence yet,” Ye Bosen said, looking at him.
Who is it?
"Your biological father." Ye Boxuan froze upon hearing this answer. His biological father? Why would he harm his father?
"Do you have any evidence?" Ye Boxuan's voice became much softer.
"Not yet, but based on my speculation, it was probably him."
Ye Boxuan fell silent, his head bowed, lost in thought.
After a long while, he finally raised his head, his eyes reddening. "What about my grandfather? How did he die?"
"He couldn't bear the news of his second uncle's death and passed away."
Ye Boxuan didn't say anything more. His hands were clenched into fists, and his lips were tightly pursed, as if he was trying his best to suppress his anger.
The adults fell silent, and the atmosphere became tense.
Almost an hour later, Ye Boxuan finally raised his head.
“It’s my fault that I hurt Grandpa and Dad. If it weren’t for me, Mom wouldn’t have gone to find my biological father, and none of this would have happened. It’s all my fault, my fault.” After saying this, he hugged his head tightly with both hands and cried in suppressed sobs.
"Now is not the time for self-blame. Our task is to catch the murderer and bring peace to Grandpa and Uncle's spirits."
"Brother, don't worry. Whether he's my biological father or not, if he did it, I will never let him get away with it."
"It's best if you think this way. I believe your second uncle and grandfather would be very pleased to know."
"Um."
"Brother, take me to visit my dad's and grandpa's graves another day. I want to pay my respects to them."
"good."
In a corner of Lin Yichen's villa, Mrs. Lin was still quietly answering the phone.
"What did you say? He ran away? How could he have run away?" Madam Lin's face was already filled with anger.
"Find it! Find it for me, whether it's alive or dead, find it for me."
She hung up the phone after hearing what the person on the other end said.
"A bunch of good-for-nothings, they can't even take care of a person properly, I don't know what use they are."
Holding her phone, her face grim, she thought for a moment and then dialed another number.
"Have you done what I asked you to do?"
"No matter what methods you use, I need to see him in the next two days."
"Price? As long as you do what I ask, money is not a problem."
She heard something said on the other end of the line before she hung up, relieved. She walked to a bench in the garden and sat down. She put her phone on the small table, picked up her coffee, and took a sip.
That little brat actually got away! This is getting a bit tricky. If her husband finds out what she did, their relationship will be even more strained. She absolutely can't let her husband find out.
She took the phone; "Send more people to search, no matter the cost, find him for me."
"Yes, Miss."
She was using a power base left to her by her mother, a power base specifically for doing shady things for her, and her husband was unaware that she had such a power base.
Her husband's stable position is inseparable from her assistance, which is why she was so furious when Ye Boxuan and his son appeared.
