Chapter 230 Who is the younger brother?
Nanzhu Pier
Ye Bai contacted Ye Che, who was standing on his friend's luxury yacht at the moment, with the noise of the party echoing in his ears.
Ye Che was standing by the railing of the deck, holding a female companion in his arms. The sunlight shining on him made him look particularly dazzling.
He took off his sunglasses, glanced at the crowd, and saw Ye Bai and Han Jianye.
On the yacht, the music was deafening, the champagne was swaying in the glasses, and handsome men and beautiful women were walking around, chatting and laughing.
Ye Bai and Han Jianye seemed to have accidentally entered a Pansi Cave.
Ye Bai frowned and whispered to Han Jianye, "My brother often has parties with his friends."
Han Jianye nodded to show his understanding.
I could only follow Ye Bai and move through the crowd.
Ye Bai walked straight towards Ye Che and shouted, "Brother, I have something urgent to talk to you about!"
Ye Che was still smoking leisurely, with a slight smile on his face, "Why are you in such a hurry? We came here to have fun."
He glanced at the two female models beside him with a hint of frivolity in his eyes.
The female model seemed to sense Ye Che's mood, and immediately smiled sweetly and said, "Brother Ye, your two friends are so handsome."
As they spoke, the two models tried to hold Ye Bai and Han Jianye's arms respectively, trying to get closer to them.
Ye Bai:…( _ )! ?
Han Jianye:…(_)
Ye Bai frowned instantly, subconsciously dodged, glared at Ye Che with an annoyed look, then pulled his hand hard and said anxiously: "Brother, stop making trouble, let's find a quiet place to talk, it's really important!"
"What's so urgent?" Although he said that, he still stood up and took them to his room.
Ye Bai couldn't wait to ask: "Brother, you are the director of the company, do you know whether there is anyone named 'Xiaong Brother' or nicknamed 'Xiaong' or whose name contains 'Xiaong' among other directors or business partners of the company sixteen years ago and now?"
"Xiaoge?" Ye Che frowned and repeated, "Is this person important?"
Ye Bai nodded solemnly, "It's very important. I came to find you because I couldn't contact my parents."
Ye Che thought for a moment and shook his head. "I don't think so. My parents happened to be abroad attending a friend's son's wedding. They won't be back for two days. Maybe they know something. What's the matter? Why is it so urgent? You even came to my house in person."
Ye Bai urged anxiously, "Brother, we have caught Zhu Qingnan. According to his confession, he and another kidnapper had originally targeted you, but you happened to be detained by the teacher that day, so I took your car home and ended up being targeted by the kidnappers. They caught the wrong person. Now Zhu Qingnan confessed that the person who hired them was a man named 'Xiaoge'. Do you think this is important?"
"What? They want to kidnap me?" Ye Che was shocked and his eyes widened in disbelief.
The air froze in an instant and there was silence.
Han Jianye broke the silence and reminded: "We initially suspect that the 'Xiao Ge' behind this must be someone you know. If he is not a relative who is jealous of your family, then he may be a business competitor."
After hearing this, Ye Che frowned and his expression became serious.
He lowered his head, lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and completely lost his nonchalant look.
"Did Zhu Qingnan say why he wanted to arrest me?"
Ye Bai responded: "He said he was just following the employer's request, and then he arrested the wrong person, so the guy called Xiaoge hung up the phone and left, which led to what happened later."
Han Jianye took over the conversation, "In this case, we can understand that Ye Che is the young man's target. He is not after money, otherwise it would be the same if he arrested Ye Bai. But he just doesn't care about Ye Bai after he catches him, which shows that his goal is very clear."
Ye Che asked: "So the other party wants to kill me?"
"Zhu Qingnan didn't know either. His original words were that the other party handed over the money and the person at the same time."
Ye Che raised his eyebrows and asked an unexpected question: "How much did the other party pay to capture me?"
"Five million."
"What? So little?" Ye Che said angrily, "What lousy kidnapper wants 5 million? I don't even have a sports car worth that much."
Ye Bai was ashamed!
(＃－.－)! ! !
This question is not important, okay?
(ω)! ? Han Jianye thought, was 5 million not enough 17 years ago?
Ye Che was silent for a moment, then he raised his head, his eyes became sharp, and he said in a deep voice: "Give me three days, and I will definitely find this person out."
"Brother, how are you going to find it?" Ye Bai asked.
"Just wait, I have plenty of ways." Ye Che said in a stern tone, looking confident.
Ye Bai keenly noticed that Ye Che seemed to have someone he suspected, so he asked tentatively, "Who did you think of?"
Ye Che snorted coldly, with a disdainful arc on his lips: "Don't forget, I am Grandpa's eldest grandson. You know how many people in the family are eyeing me covetously for the shares Grandpa gave me."
Ye Bai nodded, "So, you suspect that someone in our family was jealous of you and planned this kidnapping."
Ye Che smiled disdainfully, his tone full of sarcasm: "As long as I die, won't the shares that Grandpa gave me be put on the table for negotiation again?"
Han Jianye said thoughtfully, "That makes a lot of sense. If the kidnappers were simply asking for a ransom, it wouldn't matter who you two kidnapped. It shows that Ye Che must have something they want."
Ye Che said harshly, "Wait for my news. I won't let the person behind this go."
After they left the yacht, Han Jianye couldn't help but ask Ye Bai: "Just now your brother said that he is the eldest grandson and all your grandfather's shares will be given to him. What does that mean?"
"The eldest son is the heir. Do you think this is only a concept from ancient times? You don't know that my grandfather attaches great importance to this. In our family, it is no exaggeration to say that the elder brother is the one who is loved by everyone."
Han Jianye showed a surprised expression: "You are the little grandson? Logically speaking, shouldn't the little grandson be the most favored?"
After hearing this, Ye Bai smiled, said nothing, and walked straight towards the car.
In Han Jianye's opinion, Ye Bai's silence seemed to have a deeper meaning, and everything was implied.
So, Han Jianye quickened his pace to catch up with Ye Bai, gently placed his right hand on his shoulder, and said in a gentle and comforting tone: "It's okay, I will spoil you in the future."
The corners of Ye Bai's mouth slightly raised. He glanced at Han Jianye and said softly, "Okay."
"Aren't you touched?" Han Jianye teased him deliberately.
“I am very touched.”
Ye Bai lowered his eyes slightly, his tone gentle but with a hint of seriousness.
Han Jianye gently ruffled his short hair and said softly, "Smile more, you look very beautiful when you smile."
Ye Bai grinned, revealing a bright smile, "Got it."
