Chapter 79
The young man also heard what they said when he came over, but he didn't say much. He just parked the Rolls-Royce in the garage before walking into the villa.
The relatives subconsciously gathered around him and surrounded him and sat in the main seat.
As the relatives walked, they looked at the young man curiously. Although they knew that Song's father and Ye's mother were good-looking and their two sons were also outstanding in appearance, the young man looked as if he had been retouched abroad compared to before.
This made the relatives even more curious about the young man's previous experiences.
It was not until everyone sat down at the dinner table that they figured out what the news about the imprisonment a few days ago was all about.
This story starts with the embassy.
After the embassy received a call that someone had imprisoned one of its citizens, it contacted the local police without hesitation to rescue the person. However, because there was no search warrant and the suspect had great influence in the local area, the embassy returned empty-handed several times.
This incident also attracted the attention of local news media, and it quickly became part of domestic news.
Under the dual influence of public opinion pressure and diplomatic pressure, the local police have applied for a search warrant and promised to rescue the person soon.
"...I also watched the rescue video shot by the local police. At that time, I just thought the person looked familiar, but I didn't expect it was you, brother. By the way, brother, are you mentally okay?"
The little cousin said in shock.
The little cousin was amazed at this case while watching short videos, but she didn’t expect that one of the protagonists was actually her cousin who had run away from home for many years!
And after the rescue video came out yesterday, his cousin actually returned home today!
The relatives at home quickly opened their mobile phones to search for the news, and then looked at the handsome young man sitting in the main seat with shocked expressions.
He was actually imprisoned by a local wealthy man. Just from this brief description, they could imagine a lot of things.
There was also a hint of pity in the look he gave the young man.
However, after the cousin expressed her concern for the young man, they, who were just looking for small gains, swallowed the words that were about to come to their lips to ask for details and began to care about the young man's physical condition.
"...Do you want Second Aunt to introduce you to a few psychologists? They are all from overseas and are from big hospitals. It's hard to get an appointment with them."
"…I, your second uncle, just opened a sanatorium hotel in Sanya. It's right next to the sea and I guarantee you'll have a comfortable stay. Besides, it's full of old men and women and no one watches the news."
"…If you have any problems, tell your family. We are all family, so we should help when necessary."
The words of the relatives at home also woke up Song's father and Ye's mother. Their expressions were quite different from those of their relatives.
"Oh, what kind of psychological problem? He is just being pretentious because he has nothing to do. And he asked for it by being locked up. Who told him to run away from home without saying a word?"
Song's father waved his hand and spoke like a patriarch, while Ye's mother beside him also joined in, frowning and speaking seriously.
"Besides, it's not glorious to tell anyone about this. Let's just pretend that nothing happened. Ye Wangxing should stay at home for a few more days and don't go out. Got it?"
As she said this, she glanced at her outspoken little cousin, which subconsciously made the little cousin shrink her neck.
But she lowered her head, but in her heart she pouted in disapproval. She really couldn't like her aunt and uncle. They were obviously just trying to save face, but they still had to do it in the name of doing it for the good of the children.
Her aunt is fine, after all, she is a special teacher. If she is strict with the children, there are reasons to be aware of it. After all, some teachers value learning the most.
But her uncle was just an ordinary worker who hadn't even become a team leader, but he came home every day and ordered his wife, a top teacher, to work. He had the same position as her father, but her father never let her mother enter the kitchen.
Now he is still showing off his parental power in front of his cousin who came back driving a Rolls-Royce Phantom.
"...Tsk, you just rely on the fact that you are the biological mother and don't treat the child as a human being."
The little cousin muttered something, and was slapped on the thigh by her mother. She finally shut up, but she was still a little unconvinced. She took out her mobile phone angrily and was about to play it when she found a 99+ message popped up in the girlfriends group. She quickly clicked and started scrolling up.
Song Yun felt a little suffocated when he looked at his parents. His parents have always been like this. They always have to belittle their own children in front of outsiders. When something happens, they don't stand on the side of the children but instead say that it must be their own fault.
Normally it would be fine if his parents said anything to him, but this was the first time Ye Wangxing saw them since returning to China. If he ran away from home again, they would probably never find him until they died.
Ye Wangxing now has a net worth of tens of billions!
Song Yun was just about to tell her about Ye Wangxing, but at this moment a calm voice came from the side.
"I don't need a psychiatrist. My personal doctor has already seen me. It's not a big problem. Don't worry about the news. This news won't spread."
As the handsome young man spoke, he poured himself a glass of red wine.
He said this lightly, but his relatives at home were a little surprised. After all, it was the first time they had actually come into contact with someone who had a private doctor.
It was Song's father who frowned and felt as if he had been humiliated.
And Ye's mother's scolding was about to burst out of her throat.
"ah!?"
At this moment, a scream attracted everyone over.
Following the direction of the voice, he saw his little cousin looking at the phone in her hand with her pupils shaking. Then he handed the phone directly to Ye Wangxing who was sitting in the main seat and said in disbelief.
"Brother! The criminal suspect who detained you before said he was your boyfriend - his last name is Aldrin! The Aldrin who was involved in both arms and oil!"
The little cousin's words were earth-shattering. Not only did they stun all the relatives, but they also made Song's father and Ye's mother swallow the words that were about to come out of their mouths.
They looked at their little son with shocked expressions, looking dazed and silly for the first time.
Before Shi Xuanzhu could react and figure out which Aldrin was making his little cousin so excited, he saw the young man take the phone from his little cousin, take a look at it, then instantly frowned, with disgust showing on his face for the first time.
"——Listen to this bastard's fart!"
The handsome young man was so angry that he started swearing.
After swearing, the handsome young man did not say what his relationship with Chris Aldrin was. His expression was slightly ferocious, and he returned to normal after sending a message to someone.
But still no words were said.
The relatives were tactful and didn't ask any more questions, but their eyes revealed some thoughtfulness. The little cousin seemed to realize that she had gotten into trouble, and she huddled beside her parents, not saying a word, just picking up vegetables with her head down.
However, the young man seemed silent and seemed to be worried about something as he was listening to Yijiu in his mind reporting on his investigation.
[…Host, this is the specific situation. The Shi family’s influence in the country cannot be underestimated. Whether it is civil servants, other business departments, or engineers, there are Shi family members. The film and television industry is managed by Shi Xuanzhu, and he seems to agree with the clan’s ideas. ]
Yijiu talked about the previous investigation results and reported all the information of some of the Shi family members, including their record of tax evasion and some disciplinary violations.
[No wonder Shi Xuanzhu looks normal on the surface, even has the charm of an ancient gentleman, but if you listen carefully to what he said and the words and sentences in the painting, it gives people a feeling of incompatibility. It's not because of this. ]
Ye Wangxing had no intention of letting Shi's family off. As a good citizen, he asked Yijiu to find an anonymous email address and send the report directly to the email address the next second after getting the information.
It will depend on when the investigation team arrives.
[…The investigation team will need at least several months. We might not have collected all the information by the time we complete our mission and leave this world, but that’s normal.]
Ye Wangxing said this and brought the topic back to Shi Xuanzhu and Song Yun.
[However, if this family is like this, and Shi Xuanzhu is also disciplining Song Yun by selecting a mistress, then it is no wonder that Song Yun ended up being so sick in the original storyline, wanting to lock up Shi Xuanzhu.]
In the original plot, Song Yun has always been a househusband at home, and strives to become what Shi Xuanzhu wants him to be.
At the beginning of the plot, Song Yun asked Shi Xuanzhu for help because his brother died abroad. Shi Xuanzhu readily agreed and asked him to collect his brother's body.
Song Yun was very happy at first, but unfortunately there were too many things to do and the procedures were too long. Song Yun returned to China a day late. Originally, Song Yun thought it was nothing, but in fact, it made Shi Xuanzhu furious.
Although Shi Xuanzhu was valued in his original family, he was not taken seriously. After he became successful in the film and television industry, he had a little say in the family, but he was still beaten by his father from time to time.
This also led to Shi Xuanzhu subconsciously imitating his father's behavior.
——For example, this incident almost made him use family rules to beat Song Yun.
Fortunately, Song Yun's mind was still clear at that time, and he was not fooled by Shi Xuanzhu. On the contrary, he looked at Shi Xuanzhu with disbelief - and then dialed 110.
The two were taken to the police station immediately, and Shi Xuanzhu immediately pretended to be sober and said that he would never do that again. Song's father and Ye's mother naturally stood on the side of the son-in-law who brought them face, so Song Yun returned home to live a good life again.
Later, Shi Xuanzhu and Song Yun participated in a variety show together. The two did not attract any cyber violence, but it was precisely because of this variety show that Shi Xuanzhu got to know more people in the circle - and his soul mates.
Song Yun also noticed this, but unfortunately Shi Xuanzhu has always been perfect and was only mentally unfaithful.
——But the mental abuse he inflicted on Song Yun was real.
He didn't talk to Song Yun. When he spoke, he gave her tasks. And if Song Yun showed any signs of wanting a divorce, he would go find Song's parents and ask them to come and help to discipline Song Yun.
And Song's parents naturally stood on Shi Xuanzhu's side because of the benefits Shi Xuanzhu gave them.
As expected, there was something wrong with Song Yun's mental state, but it was only his mental state that had problems, not his IQ, so he came up with the best solution.
——As long as he can control Shi Xuanzhu, make him report to him whenever he goes out, and monitor his every move, then he will not be out of his control.
His parents would not divorce him just because Shi Xuanzhu told him to keep the man's heart.
Shi Xuanzhu naturally resisted at first, but when Song Yun laid out all the evidence of their crimes in front of him, Shi Xuanzhu silently agreed to Song Yun's desire for control.
In an interview many years later, Song Yun smiled and said that it was Shi Xuanzhu who led him away from his parents' control, and Shi Xuanzhu also said that it was Song Yun who gave him a sense of security and helped him heal the harm he suffered from his father.
At the end of this mission, Ye Wangxing’s face was full of question marks like an old man in the subway.
He originally wanted to order a song called "Torture Each Other Until We Grow Old", but after thinking it over carefully, Ye Wangxing cancelled the BGM that was playing.
After all, rather than torturing each other, it would be more accurate to say that this was only torturing Song Yun.
From Ye Wangxing's one-sided perspective, Shi Xuanzhu was enjoying Song Yun's control - after all, for so many years, Song Yun was just a househusband, and he had nothing except the evidence in his hands, yet Shi Xuanzhu still listened to his control obediently.
But Ye Wangxing didn’t think this was love, it was just that Shi Xuanzhu finally found the slave who was easiest to control.
If he told Song Yun everything and Song Yun was still willing to stay with him, Ye Wangxing would not think there was anything wrong.
But the key point is that Shi Xuanzhu never told Song Yun about his family affairs.
[…I never thought that the love-brained person in this world would be the protagonist. But the target is not fixed. He might fall in love with anyone who whips him. To be honest, does he really not have a father-loving tendency?]
Ye Wangxing couldn't help but complain when he said this: [The Qing Dynasty has been gone for more than a hundred years, why are there still so many old coffins running around on the road? They must be very long-lived. ]
[Maybe this is what you mean by vested interests protecting their own interests.] Yijiu's calm voice sounded.
Ye Wangxing also sighed: [This situation is the most difficult to deal with. We can only hope that the investigation team will hit harder with their iron fist. It would be best if Shi Xuanzhu also loses her protective umbrella.]
[Besides him, Song's father and Ye's mother were also accomplices. Song Yun was actually a normal person, but they forced her to become a psychopath, and the original owner was not much better.]
Ye Wangxing sighed and said.
The original owner's experience was quite ordinary. He was an introverted child who was belittled by his parents until adolescence. He then began to rebel and finally chose to work and travel abroad on a budget.
He was lucky enough to make some money. Just when he was planning to settle down abroad, he was hit by a stray bullet on the roadside and passed away.
In the plot, after the original owner's body was recognized by his brother, when he returned home his parents didn't even want to hold a funeral for him, as they felt that the original owner was a disgrace.
However, they did not despise the original owner's inheritance.
Only his brother Song Yun ran around for him. He not only bought a tombstone, but also remembered to visit the original owner.
Thinking of this, Ye Wangxing also sighed. This was one of the reasons why he did not speak to Song's father and Ye's mother when he saw them when he entered the door.
[I started to feel lucky for the irritable character I was given - at least I can just curse back if there's anything wrong... but sometimes the swearing is a bit embarrassing.]
When Ye Wangxing thought of the foul language he had uttered a day ago, he wanted to cover his face.
Although saying this in English does not involve the shame of one's native language, I still feel a little embarrassed when I think about the translated meaning.
——Especially since this is used to curse Yijiu.
[It's okay, host. You apologized to me 39 times yesterday. This is just a line.] Yijiu's calm voice calmed Ye Wangxing's somewhat embarrassed mood.
[Besides, I will have more extreme lines later, I hope you won’t mind it then. ]
Ye Wangxing listened to Yijiu's words in his mind and silently covered his face.
Is it possible that he also wrote those more outrageous words?
but……
"I really always remember the food but not the beating." Ye Wangxing looked at his evaluation of three S and one A, and silently suppressed his shame.
Although the lines are a bit embarrassing, the effect is good!
——This was confirmed by Yijiu after analysis!
At the banquet that followed, Shi Xuanzhu, after coming to his senses, took on the role of livening up the atmosphere at the table and worked hard to build a relationship with Ye Wangxing.
He is not a fool. He knows that his brother-in-law must have a relationship with the person from that big family.
And he had just searched Chris Aldrin, who was to some extent the head of the entire Aldrin family.
After all, the results of the presidential election a few years ago sent many members of his family to jail, leaving him alone to guard the family business.
However, even so, he did not let the family business shrink, but thrived. He fought fiercely with the head of another old family, and the situation once reached a freezing point.
Coincidentally, half a year ago, when the situation was at its most tense, the head of that old family died in a car accident, breaking the stalemate.
But after all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. In addition to the person in power, there are other people in the family who stabilized the situation. At least the family did not suffer too much loss, and now it has shown signs of recovery.
But that family has nothing to do with Shi Xuanzhu. As long as he can establish a relationship with Ye Wangxing, it will only take a word for him to be recommended to act in international movies. Isn't it? All he lacks now is an opportunity.
Shi Xuanzhu thought about it and toasted Ye Wangxing with another glass of wine, but the young man sitting in the main seat still did not move. He just looked at Shi Xuanzhu calmly, as if he understood his thoughts.
This made Shi Xuanzhu feel a little embarrassed. After all, he was an award-winning actor, and relying on his family's influence, he was basically able to walk sideways in the entertainment industry. But now he had already drunk five glasses of wine, and the young man still didn't give in. Could it be that he looked down on him?
Shi Xuanzhu frowned and thought, then immediately began to adjust his expression. He turned around and showed his depressed look to Song Yun who was sitting next to him.
Naturally, Song's father and Ye's mother also saw it.
"Ye Wangxing, your brother-in-law is toasting you, why don't you respond?" Song's father said with a frown.
And Ye's mother looked at her son-in-law with heartache and said, "Ye Wangxing, have a drink with your brother-in-law."
She called Ye Wangxing's name word by word, which meant it was a warning.
Song Yun wanted to speak too, but looking at the faint deathly aura on Ye Wangxing and thinking about his experience, the balance in his heart immediately tipped towards Ye Wangxing. He was about to pull his parents back and whisper about Ye Wangxing's experience abroad, so that his parents wouldn't be so aggressive.
But Ye Wangxing spoke first.
"My personal doctor said that I am not fit to drink alcohol right now. And what exactly Goff is planning, he should know himself."
The young man glanced at Shi Xuanzhu and said.
"You want to go on to the international stage through my path, but you want me to talk just after a few drinks and my parents putting pressure on me?"
"When Koreans draw maps, they are not as beautiful as you think."
The young man's tone was still calm, but his words made everyone's nerves beat fast.
Song's father was even more furious, slamming the table and saying, "Ye Wangxing, you have become so capable! What tone did you use to talk to your brother-in-law? I, your father, am still sitting here."
"Ah, I almost forgot about you." The young man turned his head expressionlessly and said to Song's father.
"Were you scolded by your supervisor in the factory?"
The people present were stunned for a moment, and then they heard the young man talking like a machine gun, spitting out a string of words.
"——It seems so, so you plan to vent your anger on me?"
"Since I came in, I haven't heard you care about me at all, but you've said a lot of derogatory words. You're fawning in the factory, but you're hitting your family hard. You're strong on the outside but weak on the inside, bullying the weak and fearing the strong, flattering the superiors and bullying the subordinates. Choose which one you like."
Father Song was so angry that his face turned red, and he shouted directly: "I am your father! You think you are great just because you were sent back by a Rolls-Royce Phantom. I am your father and I will always be your father. I have the right to control you! Besides, God knows where your car came from?"
When the little cousin heard what Song’s father said, she rolled her eyes and her hands started to itch.
The young man was not frightened by these words. Instead, he just looked Song's father up and down.
"You are...trying to pressure me with filial piety? Only when a father is kind can a son be filial. Mr. Song, if Confucius heard what you said, he would have to slam the ancestral door bolt twice."
The young man's venomous words made his little cousin next to him almost applaud - and she also began to wonder if her cousin would poison herself to death if he licked her lips?
Just when Song's father was so angry that he almost fainted and could only talk in a trance, Ye's mother took Song's father's place and spoke.
"You dare to talk back, right? Ah? After a few years abroad, you must have grown up, right?!"
There was some anger in Ye's mother's voice, but the young man still spoke in that calm tone.
"When you find that you are wrong, you start to use filial piety to pressure others. Looks like you will have to use the bolt twice."
Now both Song's father and Ye's mother were so angry that they sat down on the chairs. At this time, the relatives in the family could not stand it anymore. Just before the young man could say something to smooth things over, he spoke softly.
“…Finally, that Rolls-Royce Phantom was given to me by my husband.”
The relatives present paused for a moment after hearing the young man's words, and then they heard the young man speak in a calm, almost sad tone.
“He just passed away last year.”
“…”
Everyone present didn't have time to be surprised. They immediately turned to look at Song's father and Ye's mother who had just been cursing.
—With a look of contempt.
Especially the contempt in my little cousin's eyes was the most profound.
"It's bad enough that the parents don't care about their children, but they also bully the widow. Bah!"
