"Can he really get involved in family matters?" Ye Weiwei asked with a hint of disdain.
In everyone's eyes, Ye Chuwen was just a schoolteacher who couldn't do anything.
He's never been involved in family matters.
Old Master Ye's indifferent gaze swept around, and seeing the faces of his descendants, he was filled with disappointment.
Because all they see is the desire for power, nothing else.
If they continue like this, the Ye family will fall apart sooner or later.
But they couldn't see it clearly at all.
All they know is how to fight.
"Anyone from the Ye family can get involved. I'm making this clear today: Chu Wen will take over my position from now on."
"grandfather!"
"dad!"
One sound followed another, each louder than the last.
Everyone was shocked and bewildered.
Why was it Ye Chu who asked?
Ye Hai frowned and said, "Dad, are you getting senile? Don't you know how long the Ye family can last under Chu Wen's control?
Old Master Ye's eyes sharpened: "He is your son. I only look at character when choosing people, not ability."
“Dad, it’s precisely because he’s my son that I understand him. You can’t hand the Ye family over to him. You should at least hand it over to Honghu.” Ye Honghu is Ye Hai’s eldest son and Ye Chuwen’s older brother.
At this moment, Ye Honghu was clenching his fists, looking at Ye Chuwen with a gloomy expression.
Ye Honghu is not a gentleman; otherwise, he wouldn't be recruiting others to work for him.
“That’s right, it would be much better to give it to Mao Hong than to him,” Liu Yun said discontentedly. “You crippled Ye Mu’s four legs, and now you want to take away the power of our third branch? Old Master, you can’t be so biased. The second branch gets all the benefits, how are we, the first and third branches, supposed to survive?”
Hu Jie also frowned, "Third sister-in-law is right. We don't accept Chu Wen taking charge of the Ye family. It's not his turn to take over. His elders are still here."
If even Ye Hai, as a father, opposes his son, then no one else will be willing to listen.
A great deal of opposition arose inside the room.
Sheng Qian watched this scene without saying a word.
Since Ye Chuwen wants to take over, he should first persuade his family.
Ye Chu knew it was time for him to step forward. "You're having affairs with outsiders and causing trouble at home. Do you dare say your partners aren't eyeing the Ye family? Or do you have the ability to suppress them? Since I've agreed to take over, I'm determined to change the Ye family's current situation. You can refuse to cooperate, but don't blame me for being ruthless."
He's using diplomacy first, then force.
“Chu Wen, you should just teach at school. What’s the point of coming back here to meddle in family matters? As your older brother, I can protect you, but if you want to cause trouble, we’re not afraid of you doing anything serious,” Ye Honghu said through gritted teeth as he stepped forward with a gloomy expression.
Ye Chu looked at his family and raised an eyebrow when he heard his older brother's threatening words.
Looking at the disapproving looks in everyone's eyes, he finally realized that something was wrong.
The Ye family appears united, but in reality, they are a disorganized mess.
If we really want to address this, it won't be easy.
They might even pay a very heavy price.
In the process, I may lose these family members.
Or it could lead to brothers killing each other.
Thinking of that scene, Ye Chu even had the thought of backing down for a moment.
He knew that if he backed down, the road ahead would only become more difficult, and he might be the first to lose his life.
If a person doesn't look out for themselves, they'll be punished by heaven and earth.
Perhaps, at his core, he was also a selfish person.
The more he thought about it, the more determined his gaze became.
"You can oppose me, but I have decided to take over the power of the Ye family. If you are not satisfied, you can challenge me. No matter who it is, I will not back down an inch," Ye Chuwen said firmly.
There can be no harmony without a strong stance.
“Okay, you said it yourself,” Ye Honghu said without hesitation, taking out his equipment and pointing it at Ye Chuwen.
With a "whoosh," everyone pulled out their equipment and pointed it at the side that was potentially in the most danger.
The atmosphere in the room instantly became extremely tense.
Old Ye's face was unusually grim, and he slammed his hand on the table, making a loud clanging sound.
"What are you doing? I'm still here. Do you want to follow in Lao San's footsteps?"
Last time, Ye Laosan led his men to rebel against Ye Lao, but Ye Lao crippled all four of his limbs on the spot and he's still lying in bed.
Ye Hai said, "Dad, we just did what we wanted to do. None of us are convinced that Chu Wen took over the family. Since he had such courage, he should have thought that this would happen. If you still want to use your power to suppress us for him, then he really doesn't deserve to be the head of the family."
Ye Haiming and Ye Chuwen are father and son, but their relationship is so strained that they are worse than strangers.
Ye Chuwen knew that his past resistance had caused his family to have other prejudices against him.
Even his parents felt a certain distance from him.
She once said that she would rather have never given birth to him as a son.
Because they felt they were useless, only good at teaching.
Ye Chuwen had also asked himself whether he should get involved, but his family's attitude made him give up the idea. If it weren't for Old Master Ye suddenly sending someone to take him there, he planned to apply to go abroad and stay away from the troubles in the country from then on.
Plans can't keep up with changes.
He still got involved.
He also knew that his life had taken a turn for the better from here.
If he doesn't ruthless towards such family members, he'll be trapped in a vicious cycle forever.
“Since we’re talking about strength, let’s have a one-on-one competition. Big brother, you and any of them are welcome to come at me. But today, please respect Grandpa’s wishes.”
