"I got out to check the situation, but several n in black suddenly got out of the other car. Without a word, they started beating , and then they caught Young Master Ye, attacking him ferociously. I wanted to help, but I was knocked out by them. In a daze, I heard one of them making a phone call, and that person said..."
He suddenly stopped mid-sentence, becoming hesitant.
Noticing his reluctance to continue, Old Master Ye commanded sternly, "Speak whatever you have to say, don’t be evasive here."
"I heard that person ntioning Miss Ye, saying that the task was done, and that Miss Ye should rember to transfer the money into their account," Zhao Yi said with his head down, continuing, "After that, I passed out. When I woke up, Young Master Ye was already unconscious."
Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions varied.
Xiang Zhen pressed on, "Which Miss Ye?"
"This..." Zhao Yi faltered again.
Recalling that her own son was still unconscious, Xiang Zhen’s anger flared as she demanded coldly, "Speak up now."
"It was Miss Ye Jiuliang." Having spoken, Zhao Yi buried his head even lower.
In an instant, the surroundings fell into silence.
Old Master Ye’s face changed, a trace of complexity crossing his eyes.
"Are you talking about Ye Jiuliang?" Xiang Zhen couldn’t sit still anymore, her voice darkening.
"Were those n sent by Ye Jiuliang?"
The special assistant nodded, sensing the solemn atmosphere and not daring to say more.
"How could Ye Jiuliang be so malicious, to send soone to beat my brother like that?" Ye Xin burst out, looking at Old Master Ye and pleading, "Grandfather, you can’t favor Ye Jiuliang over everyone else this ti. You didn’t see it, my brother is covered in injuries, and when he will wake up is still unknown."
"Dad, if sothing happens to Ye Lei, how can I go on living?" Xiang Zhen, who had just managed to stop her tears, began to cry again, covering her mouth and sobbing.
Old Master Ye knitted his brows and looked sharply at Zhao Yi, "Do you have any evidence?"
Zhao Yi recalled for a mont and then said, "Yes, Young Master Ye Rui was also there; he was injured too and heard the man in black on the phone."
"Ye Rui was there too?" Old Master Ye asked.
"We ran into him on the road, he couldn’t get a cab, and Young Master Ye said it was on the way so he offered him a ride," Zhao Yi answered.
"Then why wasn’t he with you?"
"When I woke up, he had been knocked out too. I shook him, and he woke up. Since Young Master Ye’s injuries were severe, he told to call an ambulance to take Young Master Ye to the hospital first. I was busy taking care of Young Master Ye, and he went to see a doctor by himself, so I didn’t notice where he went," Zhao Yi said.
Old Master Ye glanced at him and said indifferently, "Aren, make a call and ask Ye Rui to co back."
Aren nodded.
"Dad, if this matter really was instigated by Ye Jiuliang, I won’t let it go easily," Xiang Zhen said through clenched teeth.
Old Master Ye remained silent, thoughtfully glancing at Ye Yan, "Ye Yan, co outside with ."
After speaking, he stood up and walked outside. Ye Yan patted Xiang Zhen’s shoulder and followed Old Master Ye out.
In the courtyard, the grass was lush green, and the morning mist had not yet cleared, giving the surroundings a hazy beauty.
Old Master Ye suddenly stopped, turned around, and clasped his hands behind his back, "Ye Yan, what do you think about this matter?"
"I will investigate this matter thoroughly, and if all the testimonies and evidence together prove that Ye Lei’s attack is related to Jiuliang, then the matter will be handled accordingly," Ye Yan said with a grave tone, his expression grim.
"Dad, Ye Lei is my own son; would I joke about his well-being?"
Old Master Ye looked at him steadily, "You also think it was Jiuliang’s doing?"
"Dad, Jiuliang has always been hostile towards , and you are aware of this. How much she knows about the past, I’m not sure, but what I can confirm is that she has a motive to harm Ye Lei," Ye Yan analyzed calmly.
Old Master Ye’s face was creased with folds, his brows and eyes steeped with difficulty.
Not long after, Ye Rui returned. His one hand was cast in plaster, and his left leg also seed to be injured as he limped into the room. His face was also beaten up, with bruises on his forehead and the corners of his mouth.
Seeing his miserable state, Ye Yu was also surprised.
"Grandfather."
"Ye Rui, did you hear the person who injured you make a phone call?" Old Master Ye got straight to the point.
Ye Rui nodded.
Old Master Ye continued to ask, "What did you hear?"
Ye Rui’s brows and eyes drooped, and he hesitated.
Xiang Zhen, who never liked him, couldn’t contain her anger at his indecision, "Speak up quickly! Don’t you know that Ye Lei is still in a coma? Hurry up and identify the assailant."
Old Master Ye said sternly, "Ye Rui, just say whatever you have to say."
Ye Rui raised his head to et Old Master Ye’s sharp gaze, "It was... it was Jiuliang."
Old Master Ye’s complexion changed dramatically, "Are you sure you didn’t hear wrong?"
He rembered that Ye Rui and Jiuliang had a decent relationship; at the very least, Jiuliang had helped him once or twice. Comparing with Ye Xin and the others, his relationship with Jiuliang was indeed slightly better.
Now that he said this, could it really be that this matter was related to Jiuliang?
Ye Rui concealed the depth in his eyes and stated with an impassive face, "I heard it with my own ears."
"Dad, you heard it too, this matter is definitely related to Ye Jiuliang, and no matter what, I must seek justice with Ye Jiuliang," Xiang Zhen said with a firm attitude.
"That’s right, Ye Jiuliang went too far, too cruel and heartless," Ye Xin said indignantly.
Having not slept all night, Old Master Ye was headache-ridden from their noise.
Fortunately, Ye Yu gave him a way out, "Dad, why don’t we first try calling Jiuliang to probe?"
Old Master Ye pondered for a while and then nodded his head.
"Aren, dial a call to that girl Jiuliang."
This ti, the incident was not a minor scuffle: Ye Lei’s injuries were serious. He couldn’t deal with this matter hastily; he had to explain himself to Ye Yan and Xiang Zhen.
"Yes." Aren took out his mobile phone, dialed Ye Jiuliang’s mobile number, then pressed the speakerphone and placed the phone on the table.
Ye Rui listened to the "du-du" sound from the phone, and a flash of darkness swept through his eyes.
After a long ti, soone finally answered.
A low and magnetic voice ca through and it was not Ye Jiuliang, "Who is this?"
With a unique tone, everyone imdiately recognized the voice’s owner as Li Mochan.
No one expected that it would be Li Mochan answering Ye Jiuliang’s phone, and for a mont, everyone was sowhat stunned.
In the end, it was Old Master Ye who spoke, "Mochan, it’s . I need to speak with Jiuliang about sothing, let her take the phone."
"Hold on." After dropping those two words, there were footsteps over the phone, like walking in an empty space and creating echoes.
On the other end of the phone, Li Mochan left the bedroom and walked into the next-door toy room, which had been specially designed by the old lady and was filled with toys.
Before the baby was born, Ye Jiuliang tested out all the toys for the baby, liking to spend her idle ti here.
