Chapter 89 The Madman of the Rich and Powerful Criticizes the Fake Heiress 33
However, Ye Zhenghong was, after all, a cunning old fox.
Even though he was furious, he held back his anger when he thought about the purpose of his visit. He had managed to sneak out with great difficulty, and if he couldn't solve his family's problems this time, he would probably have to go back to jail.
Patience is key; a small lack of patience can ruin a great plan!
He took several deep breaths to keep from suffocating with anger, and even managed to force a smile that looked worse than a grimace.
He looked at Shen Jixue with a tenderness he had never shown before. Since Shen Jixue was the owner of this property, then…
"Silent snow, no, snow after the rain."
It was as if he was saying that name seriously for the first time.
"Child, look, this is truly a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King's temple, one family not recognizing another! After all this commotion, it turns out it was you!"
He tried to appeal to the child's emotions, saying that they had raised the child for so many years and knew his temperament and personality well.
“My child, no matter what, you have lived in the Ye family for eighteen years! In these eighteen years, I, your father, have never mistreated you!”
Everything we eat, wear, and use is the best we can give you. We send you to the best schools so you can receive the best education!
Yes, there is a misunderstanding between us, a huge misunderstanding! But you can't deny the eighteen years of nurturing love we've shared!
"If it weren't for the Ye family, would you have starved to death long ago?"
As he spoke, he observed Shen Jixue's expression. This child was like a dog; she would submit to meat. What she craved was family affection. As long as he gave her a little kindness, she would return to the Ye family.
They have a natural advantage.
“Child, come back! Come back to the Ye family! Your father was wrong before, and your mother was confused! Now your mother is disabled, and no one will treat you badly anymore.”
If you're willing to come back, everything in the Ye family is yours! Company shares, family assets, it's all yours!
You are the rightful eldest daughter of the Ye family! That Ye Canxing, she's nothing! Just nod your head, and I'll kick her out immediately!
Change like a face.
Upon hearing this, Ye Canxing, who was standing next to him, went completely crazy and stared at him in disbelief.
"Dad! Are you crazy?! What did you say?!"
Ye Heng frowned, feeling that his father's words were too harsh. Canxing was his own flesh and blood. If one day he was no longer useful to the Ye family, would his father treat him the same way?
But Ye Heng didn't say anything. This was clearly a stopgap measure, and he couldn't think of a better way to save the Ye family from crisis for the time being.
My sister is so smart, she'll definitely figure it out.
At this moment, Ye Zhenghong's true colors were revealed. He was a businessman who put profit above all else, willing to abandon everything for profit, even his own daughter, let alone an adopted daughter. Dignity and face were of no importance to him.
Shen Jixue watched Ye Zhenghong's performance quietly. Did he even realize how obvious the calculation in his eyes was? If it were her in the past, she might not have understood, and might have even cherished their hard-won family bond.
But now, she has a mother and knows what true care and family affection are like, so she no longer cares about these superficial things.
Ironic, disgusting.
What did she receive in these eighteen years? Cold stares, neglect, suppression, betrayal, and false accusations. Is this also part of family affection?
As Ye Zhenghong waited expectantly, Shen Jixue gave a cool smile.
"Mr. Ye, I cannot accept your kindness."
When you say you've never mistreated me, do you mean you've used me as a tool to shield your own daughter from disaster?
Does it mean constantly beating and scolding me, ordering me around? Or does it mean throwing me away like trash in front of everyone at my coming-of-age ceremony?
"Now that they see I have some use to them, they want to acknowledge me again?"
Do you think I, Shen Jixue, look like a fool?
"Yes," Ye Zhenghong thought to himself, "That's right, is there even a question? She used to be like a fool, she didn't understand anything, and she would come running over as soon as you gave her a little kindness."
"No, no, no, how could you think that way? Dad has always treated you like his own child."
Jixue, there was some misunderstanding about what happened before. Go home, your parents will never abandon you.
Your second brother will be back soon. He'll definitely want to see you when he gets home. How about we have a family reunion dinner together then?
Convincing Shen Jixue alone was probably not enough; in a short time, Ye Zhenghong, whose mind was full of cunning schemes, came up with another idea.
If we can win over Shen Jixue, we can get this villa and move the whole family in. We can then sell the old house to use the money for cash flow.
However, this is only a temporary solution; the best approach would be to persuade Shen Jixue's biological mother, Shen Ci.
If Shen Ci can afford this house, he must have even more assets. To catch the thief, catch the king first; it would be best to take down both the big and small ones!
Then we need to test Shen Jixue's attitude first.
Shen Jixue looked at Ye Zhenghong in disbelief, as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world. Was this still the serious and dignified father she used to know?
"No need. It's just my mom and me in my family. You don't need to bring your daughter up here. You can sell her elsewhere for a higher price."
I have my own biological mother; I don't need to recognize a thief as my father or mother.
If you have any shame, leave my house now.
Shen Jixue was in a good mood. She had witnessed such a performance by the three of them and never expected that they would have this side to them.
Her attitude was very firm. Ye Zhenghong observed very carefully. There was not a trace of hesitation on her face. She had just spoken ill of her to her face, and now she was begging her to go back. Her change of heart was faster than turning the pages of a book.
"Alright, sigh. Since you don't acknowledge your parents, I can't force you. But your older brothers haven't done anything wrong. They grew up with you, and your sibling bond is genuine. What adults do shouldn't affect children."
Today, your older brother didn't want to come, but I insisted he come. Jixue, don't be angry with him. He's always treated you like his own sister.
Ye Heng nodded. What he said was true. He had always treated Shen Jixue as his own sister. It was only because Ye Canxing came home that a misunderstanding arose. But he never thought of actually kicking Shen Jixue out of the house.
I just wanted to teach her a lesson and make her more sensible.
"Aren't you saying all this just to trick me into going back, and then steal the house I own and the assets my mother has?"
Do you think people are stupid just because they don't get angry?
"Officers, did you all hear that? They're still up to no good, daring to run away while in custody. They're perfectly healthy; get them back to jail immediately and don't let them out to endanger society again."
Shen Jixue spoke to the door, but was startled and turned around abruptly, only to see three policemen standing at the door... silent, yet their voices were deafening.
