Chapter 47: Chapter 47: The Tempted Top Student (21) Chapter 47: Chapter 47: The Tempted Top Student (21) “Daddy…”
The truth of the matter is always so hard to bear.
Ye Xiaoi’s pupils constricted as she trembled, handing the docunts to Ye Shizhi, and turned her head to look at Su Li with eyes full of guilt and embarrassnt.
They were actually indirect accomplices…
It’s terrifying to imagine, if Su Li were just an ordinary girl student, would she have disappeared without a trace beneath all the truth, just like those people, forever unknowing?
Ye Xiaoi didn’t know, everything happened just as she had imagined it really had.
Ye Wanhe had lived a blissful life, cheerfully enjoying the happiness she’d snatched away from others.
Seeing his younger sister in such a state, Ye Shizhi puzzledly took the docunts.
By the end, he was livid, his eyes flashing with blood-red fury.
“Ye Wanhe… damn her…”
“Su Li, we…”
“We owe you an apology…” Ye Shizhi went from rage to dejection in an instant as he hung his head, his entire body exuding an air of decay.
“You have every right to deal with her as you see fit… Let’s just say we were never here today.”
Ye Shizhi had no face to say another word.
Madam Ye, who had just woken up, happened to hear what her husband said and was startled for a mont before coming to her senses.
But her face, distraught with grief, still wore a trace of reluctance, and after hesitating for a long while, she turned her face away, not daring to look at Su Li’s eyes, and whispered, beseechingly, “She…”
“Wan He…”
“You are well now, so please forgive her… From now on, she will no longer be the daughter of the Ye Family…”
Ye Shizhi and Ye Xiaoi’s eyes widened when they heard these words.
Ye Xiaoi sternly chastised, “Sister-in-law, don’t talk nonsense.”
Ye Shizhi, shocked, let go of his wife’s hand and slowly stood upright.
The disappointnt in his wife was evident in his expression, “Do you even know what you are saying?”
Madam Ye had not expected such a strong emotional reaction from her husband and little sister-in-law, and without her husband’s support, her body slumped weakly to the floor.
This ti, no one ca forward to help her up.
She tentatively tried to speak up in her own defense, but her feeble excuses circled her throat several tis, and she couldn’t bring herself to voice them.
“We should take our leave…”
Ye Shizhi stooped and hunched, eager to vanish from Su Li’s view.
His sha was too great to face Su Li and her discerning gaze.
Though the news about his own daughter might have touched him emotionally, it was more driven by vested interests.
Ye Shizhi only hoped that Su Li wouldn’t hold the Ye Family accountable for Ye Wanhe’s foul deeds, much less dare to play the card of familial feelings.
And he definitely could not claim the role of Su Li’s biological father now…
The An Family, witnessing such a dramatic scene, also didn’t dare to speak.
Mr. An’s heart sank.
Jiuge’s sentints towards that mber of the Ye Family were sowhat known to them.
It was entirely possible that Jiuge had done sothing for Ye Wanhe’s sake to the person standing before them…
After managing a portion of it, Su Li turned to the two remaining mbers of the An family with a smile that was sowhat sweet, causing An Fu’s heart to flutter so much he almost reached into his pocket to pop one of his ergency pills into his mouth.
The sa set of docunts was delivered in front of the An father and son.
With so ntal preparation, Mr. An read from beginning to end. Aside from a few involuntary twitches of his face at the start, the more he read, the calr his expression beca.
Finally, he gently closed the docunts and was silent for a good while.
“”
Mr. An looked at the relaxed Su Li in front of him, clearly waiting for his decision.
If Su Li wanted to completely destroy the An Family, she wouldn’t have arranged this eting.
In an instant, many thoughts crossed Mr. An’s mind.
“Our An Family has never had anyone who has committed disciplinary violations or cris. Since An Jiuge has committed a cri, then please deal with it according to the law, and the An Family will have no complaints…”
With these words, Mr. An indicated that the An Family had officially abandoned An Jiuge.
An Fu, however, was unwilling, as Jiuge was the son he had genuinely invested much emotion in. It was hard to let go.
“Dad… Jiuge…”
Mr. An’s authoritative gaze shot towards him, and An Fu slowly fell silent.
“It’s just Jiuzhou… what do you think…”
Su Li smiled, pleased with the other’s understanding, “It’s just a routine investigation by the organization. If there’s nothing wrong, he’ll be back in a few days.”
“That’s good…”
Sacrificing a descendant who was of no use to the family, to save another capable one, was a decisive move by Mr. An.
Su Li couldn’t help but think to herself, power really is a wonderful thing.
Apparently deciding life and death can beco addictive; no wonder so many people are eager to climb to the top.
—
The next day, An Jiuzhou was released.
He understood the whole story behind the incident very clearly.
“It’s all my fault, if only I had asked a little more before…”
An Jiuzhou didn’t expect that the female student he had his brother investigate was the very cause of everything.
They had been too indulgent towards An Jiuge…
But now, even if An Jiuzhou was filled with regret to the point of turning green, it was useless.
The girl they thought was just an ant was no longer soone they could manipulate at will.
Even regarding the treatnt of An Jiuge, they did not dare to ask too many questions.
Madam An was very happy about Jiuzhou’s return, and her spirit lifted a lot, but soon realized that her most beloved younger son had not co back with him.
“Where is Jiuge…” Madam An looked around but did not see An Jiuge.
The other mbers of the An Family could only remain silent in wait.
Mr. An hamred his cane forcefully, said sharply, “From now on, do not ntion that wastrel…”
“Dad, what are you saying… You always cherished Jiuge the most, didn’t you?”
Mr. An snorted coldly, offering no reply, and even though Madam An wanted to continue asking, she was stopped by An Jiuzhou.
“Mom, stop it… Can’t you see that Grandpa and Daddy are very impatient?”
An Jiuzhou was both annoyed and frustrated.
His grand ambitions and aspirations, after such an ordeal, were completely shattered.
And all this was because of his brother An Jiuge; his forr affection for him ultimately eradicated by the disappointnt from the destruction of his career.
“An Jiuzhou, he is your own brother…”
“How can you be so heartless?”
Frustrated by his mother’s persistence, An Jiuzhou’s temper began to flare, “Do you even know what he has done?”
“Do you know who he has offended?”
“It’s just a girl; we’ve had many such issues before; why this ti…”
“Don’t you understand? If it was just an ordinary person, how could our family be in such disarray… It’s all because you’ve been too indulgent and doting on An Jiuge…”
An Jiuzhou had also forgotten that he himself was once a part of that indulgence.
