“You…”
From a personal point of view, Ye Shaoguang agreed with Yan Qingsi – he even admired her attitude.
There was nothing wrong with taking revenge, no one could take that away from you. If Yan Qingsi had been giving concessions her whole life, she would have been dead by now.
Ye Shaoguang regretted it – it seemed like he came for the wrong reasons.
Maybe he should not have meddled in Ye Lingzhi’s business in the first place.
When he first promised his uncle to handle this problem, he did not expect it to become this complicated.
Ye Shaoguang said nonchalantly, “I know you hate the Ye family, about your mom’s death, the Ye family is definitely responsible for it, but if you continue pursuing this, nothing good for you will come out of it.”
Ye Shaoguang had limited knowledge about what happened back then – he was only 10 when Yan Qingsi’s mother died.
Ye Shaoguang was only sure of one thing – the death of Yan Qingsi’s mother was not as simple as it seemed. He just did not bother knowing the story behind it, or asking about it.
This had nothing to do with him.
Yan Qingsi wanted to give him a tight slap. “Ye Shaoguang, don’t you dare to pretend to be a f***ing saint in front of me, your hands are filthier than mine, who are you to talk to me like that?”
“You say I’ve been forcing Yan Mingzhu, that’s right, I did, I won’t let go this time until I end her for real. You know what I regret the most? I regret being soft back then and letting Yan Mingzhu live, if I let her die back then, then… nothing will happen now.”
Yan Qingsi knew that she would not have a good ending to her life, she did not think about it either.
Ye Shaoguang felt powerless in front of Yan Qingsi’s burning anger.
“Maybe I shouldn’t have come today, but nothing good ever happens to a stubborn person, even if I can’t stop you from messing with Ye Lingzhi, you might not be able to actually hurt her anyway.”
“Yan Qingsi, you can stop now, Yan Songnan’s already dead, the biggest culprit of your mother’s death is already dead, you don’t have to keep doing this, take a step back, and everyone will be fine.”
Ye Shaoguang knew more than Yan Qingsi did – because of that, he understood it better than Yan Qingsi did. If she made a mistake on her journey, a fall off the cliff awaited her.
Ye Shaoguang actually pitied Yan Qingsi, and wanted to warn her about it.
Yan Qingsi laughed – she had tears from laughing too hard. She looked at Ye Shaoguang as if she was looking at a joke.
“Take a step back? Haha.. you’re telling me to take a step back? I have officially witnessed the full extent of the Ye family’s shamelessness.”
“When the Yan family forced me into a corner, and when I had to escape multiple times during my three years abroad, why didn’t Ye Lingzhi take a step back then? You want me to let her off the hook now – do you know what a pipe dream that is?”
Ye Shaoguang frowned. “I don’t know what happened then, but I can guarantee that Ye Lingzhi will never…”
Yan Qingsi cut Ye Shaoguang off. “And about Yan Songnan, when you killed him, you better not have left evidence that I can find, you ruined my revenge plan, I will not let you off that easily.”
Yan Qingsi did not care about what Ye Shaoguang had to say – she will never change the path she decided on.
Ye Shaoguang was silent. He was deep in thought, and said after a while, “You might not believe what I’m about to tell you, but I think it’s better to tell you anyway, I didn’t kill Yan Songnan, I did want to kill him, but he was already dead before I could.”
