Although Yi Zhe has no memory of his birth mother's face, she was, after all, the mother who carried him for ten months and gave birth to him with great difficulty.
Especially after returning to the Yi family, he received a photo of his mother from his grandmother. Looking at the face that resembled his own by about 60%, his nose tingled and tears streamed down his face.
That is an innate, ingrained closeness.
It's a feeling that no one can replace.
He even fantasized that if his mother were still alive, she would love and cherish him dearly, her eyes so gentle, and she would never let him suffer the slightest grievance.
So in just a few days, he had developed strong feelings for his biological mother.
Now we hear that she did not die in an accident, but was murdered in a conspiracy.
At that moment, my blood rushed to my head.
He rushed forward in a rage, venting his grief and anger with punch after punch, beating them until their faces were bruised and swollen, they were spitting blood, and several of their teeth were knocked out.
The person and chair were even thrown out and slammed hard against the wall.
The chair was accidentally smashed to pieces.
The three brothers were dizzy from the fall.
Only Yi Hai managed to regain his senses, and as soon as he got up, he tried to slip away.
Yi Tianran's eyes narrowed, and she quickly stepped forward, raising her foot to kick him directly in a vital spot in his lower body.
"Ah—" He instantly let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.
He was in so much pain that his face turned green. He immediately covered his lower body, knelt on the ground, and rolled around, unable to get up.
Yi Tianran felt no sympathy for such a beast who would kill even innocent relatives for profit.
Instead of feeling satisfied, she stepped forward and stomped on Yi Hai's instep with her pointed high heels.
"Aaaaah—Stop!" The waves of pain were indescribable. Yi Hai screamed hysterically, "Stop! You bitch, how dare you treat your own father like this? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"
Yi Tianran showed no mercy whatsoever. Instead, her eyes flashed sharply as she said, "What am I afraid of? If the heavenly lightning really strikes down, I promise I won't dodge or flinch. Let's see if it strikes you, this beast, first, or strikes me!"
Yi Hai choked and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The crimson liquid was also reflected in Yi Zhe's eyes, gradually bringing him back to his senses from that frenzied emotion.
He stepped forward and grabbed Yi Tianran's arm, his voice hoarse, "That's enough. Don't dirty your hands with people like this. Just take them to the police station!"
Yi Tianran was surprised that Yi Zhe would still think of her at a time like this, but she also felt that it made perfect sense.
Isn't this just his true nature all along?
Even when their minds were clouded, they never considered using any despicable means to harm themselves.
"Alright, I'll tell you a secret, their crimes go far beyond these." Yi Tianran's lips curled into a cold smile. "Don't worry, once they're sent in, they'll definitely be executed!"
"Hmm." Yi Zhe finally felt a little relieved. Looking at the hand he was holding Yi Tianran's, he quickly pulled it back.
Just now, he almost reverted to his old attitude towards Yi Tianran.
It's as if she's never changed; she's still as bright and clear as the moon in my memory.
He said somewhat awkwardly, "Thank you for this."
"Good boy." Yi Tianran smiled and patted his head, and he didn't dodge.
...
No matter how much the three Yi brothers struggled and cursed, they could not escape the punishment of the law in the end.
Yi Tianran, together with Yi Zhe, sent them to the police station, and then hired the best legal team from Fu Yunchen, determined to make them receive the most severe punishment.
Yi Laosan was also one of the murderers. Although he was in a coma, he was put into a hospital specially set up by the police station. Once he showed signs of waking up, he would be arrested and sentenced.
This incident caused quite a stir. Yi Tianran knew she couldn't hide it from her grandmother, so she told her the truth that very day, along with Yi Zhe. The old lady cried her heart out, feeling both sorrow and resentment. She hated herself for not being able to harden her heart and drive these wolves out of the house, which had led to the death of her daughter.
Fortunately, with the comfort and companionship of Yi Zhe and Yi Tianran, she managed to get through this difficult time.
...
Seeing that the relationship between Yi Zhe and Yi Tianran, which he had finally managed to win over with a self-inflicted injury, was starting to grow closer again after this incident, Yi Qilin felt a strong sense of crisis.
After Yi Tianran left, Yi Qilin took the opportunity to meet with Yi Zhe and probed, "Zhe, you seem to be getting too close to Yi Tianran lately. You haven't been fooled by her sweet talk again, have you?"
Yi Zhe paused for a moment, then hurriedly denied, "No... Brother, don't misunderstand. It's just that she did help my mother find her killer, and I'm grateful to her for that."
“You’re just too naive.” Yi Qilin shook his head helplessly. “Why didn’t you reveal it sooner or later? Why did you have to reveal the real culprit after you returned to the Yi family? Wasn’t it just to win your favor? To make her think that she was genuinely helping you, when in reality it was just to buy you off and use you for her own purposes?”
Yi Zhe wanted to say that it was because the three Yi brothers were trying to assassinate him that his evil deeds were exposed. Yi Tianran did not take this opportunity to put on an act for her; her anger and sadness were genuine.
Moreover, these past few days he had heard his grandmother mention how close his mother and her niece Yi Tianran were when they were young, and she told him many heartwarming and funny stories. Now that the real culprit has been caught, his mother's spirit in heaven will be comforted.
On the contrary, Yi Qilin said that he received care from his mother when he was a child, but he only mentioned it briefly, which made it seem less real.
There was something else that struck him as odd: "Brother, I personally arrested your father, and he was sentenced to death. Don't you hold any resentment towards me?"
Yi Qilin didn't even blink and said, "Do you think I should feel sorry for such a beastly father and resent you? I haven't betrayed my own family for the greater good, which is already the greatest mercy I can show."
Although what he said made sense, Yi Zhe still found it strange.
For no other reason than that he had heard that Yi Lao Si only had one son, Yi Qilin, whom he had doted on since childhood and had never mistreated.
Regardless of how Yi Laosi treated others, he was truly devoted to his son. Yet, in this predicament, his son didn't even bother to visit him.
Seeing that his expression was off, Yi Qilin added, "Instead of asking me, why don't you ask Yi Tianran? Isn't she even more ruthless than me? She truly puts family aside for the greater good!"
Yi Zhe already knew this.
Because Yi Hai abandoned his wife and daughter, and even abused her since childhood, he showed her no mercy or compassion.
Yi Tianran naturally didn't need to have any reservations about such a scumbag father.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Yi Qilin immediately put on a stern face. "What, has your heart already turned to her? Have you forgotten the injuries I sustained while saving you?"
He covered his abdomen.
