Chapter 727: Where is Home?
The more Ye Fei listened, the more unable she was to vent her resentment and anger.
Ye Rui continued, "Little Fei'er, it's alright if you don't understand your grandfather since you don't hold a high position. I built the Ye family up from scratch, and its current status is all because I'm still in power."
During the years I've been in seclusion, Jing Yao has temporarily assumed the position of family head. He hasn't disappointed me, living up to expectations and securing a prestigious family title for the Ye family. Outsiders all believe I've abdicated, but only the Ye family knows that I am still in power.
Ye Fei trembled all over, gritting her teeth as she squeezed out a sentence: "So... for the sake of the Ye family's interests, you didn't even flinch when they ordered me to separate from my mother, did you?"
Ye Rui remained silent.
"Haha..." Ye Feiqing couldn't help but cover her face and burst into laughter, her eyes filled with sorrow.
It turns out that, compared to the mother and daughter who harbored "sin," the so-called family interests were more important...
Nobody cares about her mother's life or death, just because she's a damned demon!
If it weren't for that interception, the original owner of this body would be living happily as the young lady in the Tang family.
She could have been protected very well by the Tang family, and no one would have ever known that she had demon blood. She would not have been hated or resented by the world, and she would never have had any dealings with the Ye family!
But ironically, the person who caused all of this was none other than Ye Rui, who seemed to love her very much!
Outside the window, the rain pattered, and a bolt of lightning pierced through the dark clouds, flashing intense light in an instant. Ye Rui, who used to be kind and gentle to her, now seemed so unfamiliar, so unfamiliar that her heart trembled.
A beam of green light shot out from Ye Fei's sleeve and then transformed into the shape of a young girl, Hua Hua.
Hua Hua's usual aloofness vanished, her pupils narrowing into vertical slits with rage. She glared at Ye Rui with resentment, her expression twisted with rage: "It's all because of you that Jiang Xun has suffered pain she shouldn't have had to endure! Jiang Xun loves Ye Jingyao to the point of obsession, but what has Ye Jingyao given her?"
Even her own child will be forced to separate from her because of your selfish desires! Jiang Xun is indeed a demon, but she has never done anything to wrong Ye Jingyao! You fear that Jiang Xun's identity will bring annihilation to the Ye family, so you'd rather separate a mother and daughter than compromise your utterly ridiculous family interests!
"Ye Rui! You are a complete coward! I curse you to end up abandoned by everyone! I curse the Ye family, to which you have devoted yourself, to be destroyed in an instant! You are a demon more wicked than the demon race, and you do not deserve to enjoy wealth and happiness!"
...
Hua Hua's unprecedented emotional breakdown, her words dripping with anguish, only intensified Ye Fei's resentment towards everyone in the Ye family.
In the end, Ye Fei did not try to stop her and turned to leave the Ye family.
The last vestige of tenderness for the Ye family shattered completely in Ye Fei's heart.
Large raindrops fell all over Ye Fei, making her head spin and her fingertips tremble.
Chi Ye silently stayed by her side the whole time. In order to prevent Ye Fei from being hurt by the raindrops, she used a wisp of her spiritual energy to shield her from the heavy rain.
Suddenly, Chi Ye heard Ye Fei speak slowly: "Is the identity of a demon really so difficult for the world to accept?"
Chi Ye met her gaze calmly. The girl's face was pale and weak, and her once clear eyes were now devoid of any light.
After a brief eye contact, Chi Ye placed his hand on Ye Fei's head and gently rubbed it a few times, whispering, "Fei, you are unique. You should live for yourself, not for the understanding or approval of the world."
