Chapter 67: The truth comes out
In the following week, Qi Xing didn't go home. He went to work as usual, went to Ye Xingzhou's place in the morning, and came back here after work. He decided to play the cold war with his father and ignore each other.
Qi Ronghua has been very busy recently and has not had much energy to take care of his son. Of course, the most important reason is that he is too embarrassed to admit defeat and refuses to bow down before his son no matter what.
"Just after get off work, Young Master Ye's car arrived downstairs of the company. The young master got in the car and left with him. When he got in the car, he kissed Young Master Ye on the face. There were many people at the company gate at the time, and they all saw it..."
The assistant reported Qi Xing's whereabouts to Qi Ronghua, but when he saw Qi Ronghua's face as black as the bottom of a pot, he shut up instantly.
Qi Ronghua took a deep breath, trying to lower his rising blood pressure, but he couldn't help cursing: "Little bastard!"
Qi Xing sneezed in the car and said with disgust: "It must be my dad scolding me."
Ye Xingzhou drove calmly and reminded him: "If you don't want your father to scold you, don't deliberately provoke him."
"How did I provoke him? Can't I kiss you? Do you have any objection?" Qi Xing squinted his eyes. Well, he did it on purpose. He kissed Ye Xingzhou in public at the company's gate where there were the most people. It would reach his father's ears in a few minutes. He just wanted his father to know that objection was futile and he must get along with Ye Xingzhou.
The car stopped at the intersection and waited for the traffic light. Ye Xingzhou peeled off a candy that Qi Xing had thrown into his car and stuffed it into the boy's mouth to stop him from chattering.
Qi Xing bit the candy and glared at him. The red light had turned green. Ye Xingzhou looked straight ahead and stepped on the accelerator again.
Qi Xing wanted to say something when his cell phone rang. It was his mother calling, so he casually pressed the answer button.
Wang Cuilan said, "Tomorrow is Saturday. Come home for dinner."
Qi Xing: "If you ask me to take Ye Xingzhou with me, I will go."
Wang Cuilan: “Sure.”
Unexpectedly, his mother agreed so readily. Qi Xing confirmed again: "Really? Will my father agree?"
"Never mind him. If he comes, he can kick you out of the house. You come first and we'll talk later." Wang Cuilan said.
Qi Xing: "Okay then."
After hanging up the phone, he signaled to Ye Xingzhou: "Come home with me tomorrow."
Ye Xingzhou said "hmm", not showing any nervousness at all.
"My mom is much easier to talk to than my dad. As long as you can deal with my mom, my dad will be a paper tiger," Qi Xing taught him the secret to winning over his parents. "As for my mom, you are so handsome, it will be no problem for you to pass the test. You can be a little sweet and thick-skinned, and coax her a few words. Once she is happy, she will definitely not oppose us anymore."
Ye Xingzhou smiled and said, "Okay."
Qi Xing's cell phone rang again. This time the person calling was Li Zechen. Qi Xing was slightly surprised and answered the call.
Li Zechen's first question was: "Qi Xing, were you kidnapped in Las Vegas before?"
Qi Xing: "...How do you know?"
"Then it's true," Li Zechen explained, "The one who kidnapped you was Ye Wanyao from Ye Corporation, right? He's one of my big clients, and I couldn't contact him recently. I asked his former assistant and found out that he was in jail. After a little inquiry, I heard that he was suspected of kidnapping, murder, and illegal use of explosives. The victims were two lovers of the chairman of Ye Corporation, and I guess one of them is you."
Qi Xing said awkwardly: "Well, there is some misunderstanding here, there is no such thing as two lovers."
"Is it really a misunderstanding?" Li Zechen's tone made it clear that he didn't believe it.
Qi Xing: "Things are a bit complicated, and I can't explain it clearly in just a few words. Anyway, the worst one is Ye Wanyao."
Li Zechen smiled: "Okay, I didn't mean to ask about your personal affairs, I just happened to hear about it and came to ask you, are you okay? Are you injured after being kidnapped?"
"No, Ye Xingzhou rescued me," Qi Xing said and warned him, "But don't tell my dad about this, and don't tell anyone else."
"Don't your parents know?" Li Zechen reminded him, "This is not a trivial matter. I think you'd better tell them."
Qi Xing: "Anyway, nothing happened to me, so I won't tell them, least they worry for nothing. Just do me a favor and don't tell anyone."
Li Zechen: "You went out with Mr. Ye, and I helped you hide it. Later, Uncle Qi found out. I am also somewhat responsible for your accident. But forget it, since you don't want your family to know, I won't meddle in your business. I saw your Moments, you registered with him in Las Vegas, right?"
Qi Xing breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, Ye Xingzhou and I got our marriage certificate there."
"That's good. Although I still think you and him are not suitable, it's good to be able to choose someone you like," Li Zechen said sincerely, "Congratulations."
Qi Xing: "Thank you!"
Ye Xingzhou's gaze moved over, Qi Xing ended the call and smiled at him.
Ye Xingzhou didn't ask anything: "What do you want to eat tonight? I'll have someone make it."
Qi Xing: "You do it."
Ye Xingzhou nodded, and was willing to meet Qi Xing's requests as long as he could do it.
When I got home, there was an uninvited guest, it was Ye Xingzhou's uncle.
Seeing Qi Xing coming back with Ye Xingzhou, Uncle Ye was surprised at first, then he thought of something and looked at him again. Qi Xing didn't like this old man and was too lazy to pay attention to him. He went to the kitchen to make coffee as soon as he entered the door.
Uncle Ye had no idea that he was annoying. After he sat down, he asked Ye Xingzhou, "Is that Qi Ronghua's son? What's your relationship with him?"
Ye Xingzhou leaned against the sofa with his legs crossed, his expression slightly cold: "This doesn't seem to be any of your business, uncle."
The other party's face froze, and when he spoke again, his tone became even stiffer: "Wan Yao got into trouble in the United States. Was it you who did it? You have already with dealt Wan Qing and Wan Qi, and now you won't let Wan Yao go either?"
Ye Xingzhou did not answer immediately. He drooped his eyelids and sneered with great contempt.
Qi Xing, who was making coffee, couldn't help but frowning when he heard this. Is this old man crazy? How could he come to the victim and demand accountability with such a righteous indignation?
Uncle Ye seemed to be irritated by Ye Xingzhou's attitude, and his face turned gloomy: "So it was you who really did it?"
Ye Xingzhou said lazily: "Since Uncle knows that he got into trouble in the United States, he must also know the cause and effect. Why bother asking?"
Uncle Ye blurted out: "Are you determined to kill all of our Ye family? You came back unscathed, he didn't do anything to you, but you used extraordinary means to force him to transfer all his shares to you. What you did is not legal!"
It turned out that this was the main reason why the old man came to cause trouble for Ye Xingzhou. Ye Wanyao was indeed forced to sign the equity transfer agreement with a gun pointed at his head, but so what lawsuit? Now that guy is embroidered in a in the United States and has no energy to take care of these things. No matter how indignant others are, it is all in vain.
Ye Xingzhou did not deny it: "I did it, so I did it."
Uncle Ye: "Don't even think about getting your way! As long as I am still alive, the Ye Group will not be ruled by you alone, you..."
"Then you'd better hold on a little longer, otherwise Ye Xingzhou will really piss you off to death one day, and you in the Ye family will blame him again." Qi Xing came from the kitchen and brought two cups of coffee. He handed one to Ye Xingzhou and drank the other himself. As for Uncle Ye, there was no coffee. Anyway, the old man probably didn't like coffee, so it was impossible to treat him with good tea.
He sat down on the armrest of the sofa next to Ye Xingzhou, and when Uncle Ye glared at him, he continued to taunt him: "Why is what I said wrong? After all, you Ye family members are really good at confusing right and wrong. Ye Wanyao's grandson committed kidnapping and murder, and you can even blame Ye Xingzhou. You are so shameless. You are also old, who knows if there are any people with high blood pressure, high blood lipids, heart disease, and diabetes? If something really happened here, can you Ye family members not make trouble for Ye Xingzhou?"
The old man's face turned red with anger: "How can you be so uneducated? Is this how Qi Ronghua taught his son?!"
Qi Xing said disdainfully, "Don't you think my family is a nouveau riche and unworthy of being mentioned in the same breath with you? Since we are country bumpkin nouveau riche, what's the point of talking about family education? Sorry, my family has this kind of family education. If we are targeted, we have to fight back, otherwise we are cowards. How your Ye family fights has nothing to do with me, but since you all know that Ye Wanyao, that bastard, got into trouble in the United States, you must also know that I am the victim. You are his uncle, and it's fine if you don't help him apologize to me, but you are still aggressive here. Your family education is not that good either."
Uncle Ye: “You——”
"What do you mean by you?" Qi Xing retorted, "I think you are just looking for trouble. In short, you are annoying and you don't even know it."
"Don't do that, too much..."
This Uncle Ye was probably facing the first time that he encountered a sharp-tongued young man like Qi Xing who didn't give him any face at all. He was so angry that his chest kept heaving, and his finger was trembling as he pointed at Qi Xing. He couldn't utter a complete sentence for a long time, and it looked like he was really going to have a heart attack.
However, Ye Xingzhou smiled inappropriately at this moment, raised his eyes to glance at Qi Xing who was cursing, ignored his uncle, and slowly took a sip of the coffee in his hand.
Qi Xing, however, did not feel happy. Whenever he thought about how Ye Xingzhou had been bullied in the Ye family for so many years, and how this old man, as an elder, had probably never helped him, but now he was showing off his power here, he could not feel happy.
He put the coffee cup on the coffee table, raised his chin, and signaled the other party in a cold voice: "Mr. Ye, you can leave now. This is Ye Xingzhou's house. Please don't come here casually without his invitation."
Uncle Ye: "I am a member of the Ye family, I come whenever I want..."
Qi Xing took off one of his slippers and waved it in his hand: "Are you going to leave or not? Do you believe that I will hit you with the sole of my shoe? I have no manners or upbringing, and I don't understand respecting the elderly and loving the young."
The old man couldn't stay there any longer. Ye Xingzhou had already contacted the property management of the villa area on his mobile phone, and they sent security guards to "invite" the old man out rudely.
After sending the God of Plague out the door, Qi Xing finally raised his middle finger towards the other party and closed the door tightly.
Turning around, he saw Ye Xingzhou staring at him with a hint of laughter in his eyes. He snorted and walked over: "Don't let this old guy into the house again in the future."
If the other person hadn't been so old and trembling when walking, he would have taken action right away.
Ye Xingzhou nodded casually, not really taking it to heart. If this uncle hadn't been somewhat useful in dealing with other members of the Ye family, he would never have let anyone into the house in the first place.
But Qi Xing was willing to help him, and he was happy to accept it.
叶行洲进去厨房准备晚餐，祁醒跟过来，在一边碎碎念：“你这个小可怜，是不是从小到大都没感受过爱的温暖？你们叶家人看着没一个好东西，我要是你，翻身之后一定要抓着他们一人狠揍一顿，才不会跟你一样，还跟他们演戏搞虚假和平那一套。”
"When I was a kid," Ye Xingzhou said suddenly. When Qi Xing looked at him in confusion, he explained, "When my mother was still alive."
“I see…”
Feeling a little regretful for having touched Ye Xingzhou's sore spot, Qi Xing reached out and hugged him.
Ye Xingzhou knew that Qi Xing had misunderstood, probably thinking that Qi Xing had always been hungry and cold and had been bullied and beaten by others. In fact, the Ye family had never treated him badly materially. As for being bullied and beaten, he also fought back, so it was nothing at all.
But let Qi Xing misunderstand. The more Qi Xing felt sorry for him, the more reluctant he was to leave him.
He would not ask Qi Xing to choose between him and Qi Ronghua and his wife. He just wanted Qi Xing not to give up on him no matter what.
"Didn't you say last time that you were going back to your hometown to help your mother move her grave? Why don't you take me to see it?" Qi Xing offered.
Ye Xingzhou: "You want to go see her?"
"I want to go," Qi Xing said directly, "I'm already married to you, isn't it my responsibility to meet my mother-in-law?"
Ye Xingzhou paused and said, "I'll take you there later."
After dinner, Qi Xing lay on Ye Xingzhou's legs, playing with his phone and watching a movie. Li Zechen's call came in again.
He pressed the hands-free button, and Li Zechen apologized to him: "I'm sorry, my dad heard the call I just made with you. He scolded me and told Uncle Qi that you were kidnapped here. I couldn't stop him."
Qi Xing's heart skipped a beat: "...My dad knows?"
Li Zechen: "Got it."
After hanging up, Qi Xingren was still confused. Ye Xingzhou reminded him: "Your mother called."
Qi Xing looked down and saw that it was indeed his mother's call. He hesitated for a moment. Ye Xingzhou took the phone and answered it for him.
Wang Cuilan's voice was unusually serious: "Where are you? Come home now."
After saying that, he hung up without even giving Qi Xing a chance to refuse.
Ye Xingzhou stood up first and stretched out his hand to Qi Xing: "Get up, I'll go with you."
Qi Xing looked up and Ye Xingzhou signaled him with his eyes.
Qi Xing was stunned for a moment, then put his hand forward. Ye Xingzhou raised his hand and pulled him up. He fell forward a step and almost bumped into Ye Xingzhou.
Ye Xingzhou supported the man and helped him pick up his coat: "Don't think too much, everything will work out when the time comes."
Qi Xing closed his eyes in pain: "My dad is really going to skin me alive this time."
Ye Xingzhou laughed softly: "Let's go."
