Ginger, as expected, is spicier when it's old!
That statement is absolutely correct. From just those few words from his eldest son, Old Master Ye actually guessed something:
"Yutang, have you thought carefully about the consequences of doing this?"
What about the consequences?
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Ye Yutang's eyes: "There are only two possible outcomes: one, my Ye family will stagnate and slowly retreat to the second tier; two, we will successfully trip up those people!"
So, no matter how you look at it, it's not like we're the ones who are losing out, is it?
Old Master Ye narrowed his deep, calculating eyes slightly: "Why are you suddenly starting to suspect the Su family?"
That's a very pertinent question; it seems that this is also what Ye Lao Er (the second son) wanted to know.
Everyone knows that the Su family has problems.
But after all, they are the four major families. Moving one would affect the whole situation. No one would suddenly break the ice. After all, the four families have a complex network of relationships and do business together. Suddenly taking action against one of them could very well end up burning themselves.
"Yeah, bro, what's wrong with you?"
Actually, Ye Lao Er felt it was quite troublesome, and wondered if it was better to leave it as it was.
Why bother going through all that trouble to do these things?
Why not enjoy yourself more!
Ye Yutang glanced at his unambitious younger brother: "Do you think everyone is like you?"
Well, in the Ye family, Ye Lao Er was someone who was disliked by everyone.
However, this person is thick-skinned, carefree, and doesn't hold grudges!
"Me? What's wrong with me? I'm happy every day. I can make money just by sitting down, more than I could ever spend in a lifetime. What more could I ask for?"
To be honest, what Ye Lao Er said does make a lot of sense!
Countless people in this world yearn to live like Ye Lao Er.
Anyway, from beginning to end, or rather from childhood to adulthood, Ye Lao Er never thought about any dreams.
He was lucky to be born into the Ye family.
If this person had been reincarnated into another family, they probably would have been beaten to death long ago!
It was rare for Ye Yutang to explain so much to his younger brother. He looked at Old Master Ye and replied, "This wasn't sudden; it was planned beforehand!"
"oh?"
So, what exactly is it that drives you to come up with this plan?
Ye Yutang didn't speak, and the old man continued, "That girl from the Su family has liked you for many years. How are you going to explain this to her now?"
explain?
Mentioning this name would have been fine, but the moment it was mentioned, Chief of Staff Ye's face instantly turned icy cold:
"Dad, do you think there are any good people left in the Su family? Is Su Yun really as kind as she seems on the surface?"
After being questioned twice, Old Master Ye was genuinely puzzled.
"I've noticed that you usually get along quite well with that girl Yun. She came back from abroad recently, and you two have been interacting more, haven't you? There are a lot of rumors going around."
Chief of Staff Ye had someone in mind as to who was spreading those rumors.
"Dad, it's all rumors. I've never had those feelings for her. Otherwise, we would have been together all these years ago."
This isn't just a matter of a few years or months, but decades—that's enough to prove everything.
Seeing the cold look in his son's eyes, the old man understood that his son truly had no feelings for that girl from the Su family; in the end, he still couldn't forget Ah Chen's mother.
Do you think the old man regrets watching everything happen and not intervening in time to stop it?
The answer is definitely yes!
Of course I regret it!
