Everyone was confused by Ye Yifan’s reminder. They did not have enough time to react, but they all subconsciously turned around.
A tall man walked into the Rose Castle in a customized suit. He had a long black coat, and he walked in a cool manner. He was not old, and his facial features were really well-refined. He looked a lot like Ye Ling, but he did not seem as cold as Ye Ling. In fact, he seemed nicer. He looked like a charming gentleman. His dark black eyes were deep and distant. He wore glasses, and he looked really elegant. He was like a walking book about proper etiquette.
“2nd Bro…”
“Tingjun, why have you come?”
“Tingjun, you…”
Ye Tingjun entered the hall and pushed up his glasses slightly. Two tall and charming men followed behind him. “Grandma, 2nd Uncle, Aunt, I’m back.”
The old lady’s face changed. It looked mysterious. Zhong Ran’s eyes widened.
Why has Second Master returned?
There was no news about it at all.
Shen Qianshu looked at the person who had just entered, and she was startled. Ye Yifan’s features were very ‘playboy-ish.’ Even if he looked like Ye Ling, his personality was hugely different. Yet, Ye Tingjun and Ye Ling looked 80% identical.
In terms of personality and looks, they had a great similarity.
“Sister, nephew, it’s the first time we’ve met. You can call me Ye Tingjun.”
Tong Hua and Shen Qianshu looked at him expressionlessly. Ye Tingjun was not a person who liked to smile, but he was not as cold as Ye Ling. He was like a mixture of Ye Ling’s distant self and Ye Yifan’s passionate self. He looked like someone who would keep his distance from people, yet he was also warm.
“Grandma, we should just go along with Brother’s wish for his inheritance,” Ye Tingjun said calmly.
Ye Feifei exploded in rage. “Ye Tingjun, what are you talking about? Why should we give them the inheritance? Even if you don’t give the Ye Family a share, the inheritance belongs to you and Yifan. Why should we give it to an outsider?”
“I, Ye Tingjun, do not need my brother’s inheritance,” Ye Tingjun said coldly. “Yifan doesn’t need it either. Brother’s inheritance was built up with his own blood, sweat, and tears. The Ye Family had never contributed in the slightest bit. Naturally, we should not take a single cent from him. It is his problem how he wants to distribute them. Grandma, what do you think?”
“I disagree!” The old lady looked at him coldly. “Tingjun, you have not returned home in years. There are some things that you don’t understand. Keep quiet. I will tell you more at night.”
“Grandma, even if you dislike Brother, it makes no sense for you to pay someone to kill him and then try to get all his inheritance. What’s all of this for?”
“…” Everyone was silent.
My Second Master, this is but your biological grandma! Nice one!
Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua were confused. They had indeed suspected this, but no one had dared to say this without actual evidence. It was better that they kept quiet in case they tried to do something to them. Yet, Ye Tingjun did not seem to have such worries.
“Tingjun, what nonsense are you spouting!”
“Not only do I know that you had made a deal with people of Ghost City to kill Brother, I know who did it as well. Do you want me to say it?” In Ye Tingjun’s eyes, there was a tinge of coldness. “Know where to draw the line.”
“Nonsense!” The old lady was furious. “No matter what, the Ye Family’s inheritance belongs to the Ye Family. No one else can inherit anything.”
“Who said that Shen Jin has no right to Brother’s inheritance?” Ye Tingjun pushed up his glasses and turned around. A man passed him a document, and he passed it to the old lady. “One month ago, Brother made me get the adoption matters done. Legally speaking, he is Brother’s adopted son. An adopted child has the same rights as a biological child. He has all rights to inherit brother’s belongings.”
