Hearing Ye Wenyao's words, the old man was overcome with grief, his expression filled with hurt. "That's your older brother. You and he are the same in my heart, I..."
"Shut up! Same? How are we the same? You've always praised him for everything he did since he was little, but what about me? Do you even remember ever praising me?"
Hearing the old man's words, Ye Wenyao felt both angry and resentful.
Same?
That's a joke!
His life from childhood to adulthood was like a gray hell.
He never came back to complain about being bullied at school, because he knew that even if he did, no one would take it seriously.
As for Ye Yunhen, he had excellent grades since childhood, was the darling of the principal and teachers, and the object of flattery among his classmates.
But he was considered trash by the teacher and a target of bullying by his classmates.
Ironically, Yunhen actually pretended to help him that night, but he didn't care at all!
Even if he's lacking in attention, he doesn't care about Ye Yunhen!
All his misfortunes stemmed from him!
Ye Wenyao's words struck the old man like a blow to the head, and he recalled things from the past few decades.
It seemed that back then, Ye Wenyao always hid silently in a corner. Even when he asked Ye Wenyao to come over, Ye Wenyao would always look at him with a detached, indifferent gaze, like a walking corpse, without moving an inch.
From then on, I seemed to care less and less about him.
Later on, the old man seemed to have no recollection of the times he spent with him.
Not to mention praise.
Ye Yunhen was usually very independent, so he assumed that Ye Wenyao was the same way.
At that time, he was busy supporting his family, so he naturally didn't pay much attention to them.
I never expected that Ye Wenyao would think of him this way.
He asked himself honestly, and he knew that his love for both of them had always been the same.
It's just that they have different expectations and different requirements for each other.
He thought that even if there was hatred, it would be Yunhen who hated him, making him bear too much.
Unexpectedly, in the end, it was Ye Wenyao who hated him.
He had always thought that people who lived freely would be happier, but he never expected that Ye Wenyao did not think so.
"It's my fault as a father. I didn't consider that treating you differently might cause you to have unhealthy thoughts. I still maintain that I treat you and your older brother the same." (Love)
It's just that the way it's expressed is different.
The two brothers had the same basic needs for food, clothing, and daily necessities, so he could give them the same things.
Ye Wenyao looked at the old man with a cold smile, finding it all rather amusing.
Same?
From beginning to end, he only had eyes for Ye Yunhen; there was no trace of him.
Ye Wenyao was too lazy to argue with the old man anymore. Now that things were in this situation, talking about the past wouldn't change anything about what he had suffered.
He knew without much thought who the old man was there for and what his purpose was.
But he still wanted to hear what the old man would say.
So, he deliberately asked the question.
“Talking about the past won’t change anything, and it certainly won’t change my mind. Just tell me why you’re here today, just say it directly.”
After hearing this, the old man felt a mix of emotions and was speechless for a moment.
Remembering what he had said to Ye Mohan so confidently before, he said, "If you come back to the Ye family with me and promise not to be at odds with Xiaohan, I will transfer the 10% of Ye Corporation shares that I promised you to your name, and you can also return to a position in Ye Corporation."
~~~~~~
Upon hearing this, Ye Wenyao let out a cold laugh, his eyes growing even colder and more terrifying.
It seemed as if the old man in front of him was not his father, but his enemy.
"Oh? You can make that decision? Aren't you afraid your good grandson won't agree?"
Ye Wenyao squinted and asked in a pretentious manner.
Upon hearing this, the old man looked at Ye Wenyao and said, "I will talk to Xiaohan. You just need to decide whether you agree or not."
Ye Wenyao snorted coldly upon seeing this, not taking the old man's words to heart at all.
"Promise? You said the same thing ten years ago, did you keep your word?"
Ye Wenyao stared directly at the old man, his words sounding somewhat aggressive.
Upon hearing this, the old man's expression changed, and he looked somewhat embarrassed.
Ten years ago, when he asked Ye Wenyao to come back and help him take over the Ye family business, he made this condition an exception.
The matter was dropped after the unpleasant parting six years ago.
I never expected that Ye Wenyao would bring this up now.
He was indeed more in the wrong in this matter.
Although Ye Wenyao's greed also played a part.
And these conditions were indeed set by himself.
“I currently have 15% of the shares, and I can give them to you if you agree.”
Upon hearing this, Butler Jin frowned, clearly disagreeing with the old man's approach.
Others may not know, but he is well aware that the old man currently only owns 15% of the shares.
Six years ago, when the young master took over the Ye family business, the old master transferred half of the shares to him, in order to ensure that the young master would firmly hold the position of the head of the Ye family business.
The 10% share previously given to the young mistress reduced the old man's total 75% stake to only 15%.
This is all the old man has left.
Butler Jin hesitated for a long time before advising, "Master, you mustn't. You..."
When the old man heard Butler Jin speak, he turned his head and gave him a warning look.
Seeing this, Butler Jin had no choice but to swallow back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
Seeing this, the old man turned back to look at Ye Wenyao, waiting for his answer.
He wasn't unaware of what Butler Kim meant.
But if all of this could bring harmony to the family, he felt it was all worthwhile.
These are all external possessions; you can't take them with you when you're born or when you die.
In his eyes, giving it to Wenyao or Xiaohan was the same; they were both from the Ye family.
Now, Xiao Han has grown up and holds 50% of the shares in the Ye Group. The other shareholders of the conglomerate are also under Xiao Han's command and have great faith in him. Moreover, they have witnessed Xiao Han's strength and will not easily turn down money.
Even if Wen Yaozhen still has some ulterior motives, Xue Yatou also owns 10% of the shares, and he believes that the couple can protect the Ye family well.
After hearing this, Ye Wenyao was not grateful for the old man's actions.
From beginning to end, I was never the most important person in his eyes.
In his heart and eyes, there will always be only Ye Yunhen!
Even though Ye Yunhen is now just a pile of bones, no, perhaps no more than a corpse, he still only has eyes for Ye Yunhen's son!
He only deserves what they don't want!
How ridiculous!
He actually wasted so much time on this old geezer, and he even hoped that the old geezer would care about him a little more because of it. He was a joke from beginning to end!
"Get out of here! I'm not that silly kid anymore, I don't need your charity."
I will get what I want by any means necessary, and even if I can't, no one else will!
