A bolt of fury flashed past Shen Qianshu’s crystal clear eyes. Her hands were trembling with anger, and it was as if poisonous weeds were spreading wildly in her heart. She had a strong urge to slash the old lady with a knife. A slash was not even enough to slake her hatred. How dare she threaten him like that.
Going to court and bringing out evidence of Ye Ling’s mental illness.
This meant that the whole world would know that Ye Ling was a lunatic—a mentally disordered person. To Ye Ling, this was applied huge mental pressure in itself. During the times in Golden City, even though Ye Ling’s behavior was slightly weird, he was a man with extremely great strength and skill. Thus, not many people were suspicious of him too. If the old lady brought out evidence of his mental illness, the whole world would surely believe her. She was his grandmother after all!
This old lady was really too evil.
Why would there be such an evil person like her in this world?
Her husband was such a good person.
Ye Yifan was shocked and said, “Second brother, what did you say just now? My big brother had a mental illness?”
“That’s what Grandma said.” Ye Tingjun replied.
Ye Tingjun actually slightly suspected it before. Golden City’s incident was too strange. The people involved either died or were injured, and all news was practically blocked off. Ye Tingyun had been monitoring Ghost City’s developments all along and almost went there too. When he first got the news, he had his suspicions already. Moreover, for the past few years, he came across some matters by accident and thus always had his suspicions. However, he was, after all, his elder brother, and since Ye Ling did not mention it, Ye Tingyun never asked as well. The old lady was so certain to say that Ye Ling was mentally disordered, that the will was not effective, and that they would see the outcome in court. Ye Tingyun believed her.
Big brother’s mental illness must never be revealed.
Shen Qianshu was already Ye Ling’s weakness. If the mental illness was brought in, everyone would know how to tackle him. They would be able to make a big issue through his illness easily. Old lady had not spread the news all along as she might also be keeping it as the last card.
Shen Qianshu clenched her fists tightly. “She wants to bring it to court?”
“If you guys can give up the inheritance, she will keep this as a secret. No one will then know of this matter,” Ye Tingyun said softly.
This seemed to be the only route Shen Qianshu could take.
Obediently giving up the inheritance!
In that short period of time, Ye Yifan became deep in thought.
Mental illness?
Big brother?
His big brother was so handsome, intelligent, and almighty. How could he be a mentally ill person?
If every mentally ill person was like big brother, he reckoned everybody would be willing to have a mental illness.
“Sis-in-law, the decision is in your hands,” Ye Tingyun said.
He had certainly thrown her a difficult problem.
Shen Qianshu’s heart was thundering loudly, palpitating badly, and aching even badly. He was already dead, yet did she have to cause Master to be unable to rest in peace? Why couldn’t she let him off? Tong Hua reached out, grabbed her hand, and said, “Mommy, let’s give up the inheritance.”
“This is not the issue of the inheritance!” Shen Qianshu’s gaze was cold, and she was very rational. “This is Master’s wish. If we give up the inheritance and give up his whole life’s hard work to his enemy without putting up a fight, he will not be able to rest in peace.”
She could almost imagine Ye Ling’s intimidating expression, wanting to settle scores with her.
This is my little princess’s assets. You dare to give it away to others?
You give it a try!
Ye Yifan frowned, and the two brothers exchanged a glance. Ye Tingyun pushed up his spectacles and said calmly, “Sis-in-law, big brother is already dead. Strictly speaking, the matters after his death are not that important. Even if Grandma were to reveal his illness, he’s already dead. There will not be much impact. You don’t have to worry.”
