He clenched his phone tightly, his teeth gritted together. There was intense hatred in his deep, dark eyes.
Jiang Zhengxing, who is worse than a beast!
On the other end of the phone, Ye Xingbei couldn’t hear Ye Xinglan’s voice for quite a while. He nervously asked, “Big Brother…are you still listening?”
Ye Xinglan let out a silent breath, trying to keep his voice steady: “I am.”
“Big Brother, I have something else to tell you,” Ye Xingbei said, “Gu Junzhu said that I have a missing uncle, and my uncle went missing while searching for my aunt who had run away to avoid her marriage. Then, because my father loved my uncle very much, my father and mother had a car accident and died while searching for him… I was thinking… could I trouble you, Big Brother, to help me find my uncle?”
“Gu Junzhu said that my father searched for my uncle for several years, but didn’t find him until my father passed away. I was thinking, if my uncle is still alive, I could help fulfill my father’s wish by finding him, and we could go together to pay our respects at my parents’ grave… My father would be so happy…”
Ye Xinglan held his phone, remaining silent for a long time before asking: “You’re saying that your, your father went missing because he was looking for your uncle?”
“Yes,” Ye Xingbei replied, “That’s what Gu Junzhu said. Given his status, he wouldn’t say such things without evidence. It should be true. So right now I really want to find my uncle and fulfill my father’s dying wish.”
Ye Xinglan closed his eyes, pinched the bridge of his nose, “I got it, I will help to find him.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Xingbei broke into a broad smile, “Thank you, Big Brother!”
“Beibei…” Ye Xinglan suddenly spoke, “…I’m sorry…”
Because I thought you were Jiang Zhengxing’s daughter, with his filthy blood flowing in your veins, I was so harsh on you.
Ye Xinglan slammed his fist on the desk, his eyes filled with icy hatred.
We can’t let bygones be bygones!
“…What?” Ye Xingbei was stunned, “What did you say, Big Brother?”
“Nothing!” Ye Xinglan closed his eyes, took a few deep, silent breaths, and when he opened his eyes, his dark pupils had regained their usual sharpness. “Beibei, you’ve been going on and on about Gu Junzhu. Just what is going on between you two?”
Ye Xingbei’s face instantly turned red; she was at a loss, stammering, “B..Big Brother, didn’t Second Brother tell you?”
She was terrified of Ye Xinglan and didn’t dare to tell him about her relationship with Gu Junzhu.
She thought Ye Xingli would have told Ye Xinglan.
She decided to deal with it ostrich-style: hide when she could.
Ye Xinglan snorted: “As if he would call me.”
Her useless Second Brother is just like her. To him, bumping into Big Brother was like a mouse running into a cat: so terrifying that he would avoid it if he could.
She was actually hoping her Second Brother would make the call to Big Brother.
She must have been scared silly by Big Brother.
She had no choice but to tell Ye Xinglan everything that happened between her and Gu Junzhu herself.
The tension caused her body to stiffen, cold sweat seeping on her forehead, her voice trembling with fear.
Hearing Ye Xingbei’s trembling voice, Ye Xinglan couldn’t help but close his eyes.
Ye Xinglan knew Ye Xingbei was scared of him.
It didn’t bother him before.
But now, knowing that Ye Xingbei wasn’t Jiang Zhengxing’s daughter but the biological daughter of his own uncle, he felt a deep regret in his heart..
