Chapter 1163: Why Should I Acknowledge You
Grandma Ye had two sons and one daughter. Ye Xinfan was her oldest son, Ye Zhifan was her second son, and Ye Zhixiang was her youngest daughter.
Until now, everyone in the village thought that all three children were Grandma Ye’s biological children. They never suspected that both her sons weren’t her real sons.
Grandma Ye always thought that no one knew this secret. When she brought ‘Ye Xinfan’ back to the village, besides her husband and a few elders who knew the truth, no one in her generation knew it.
As the elders passed away one by one, the secret that Ye Xinfan wasn’t her son got buried in the ground. No one mentioned it anymore.
Also, even though the older generation knew a little of her secret and suspected that Ye Xinfan wasn’t her biological son, they never thought that this ‘Ye Xinfan’ wasn’t her eldest uncle’s son!
The night she went to the city to fetch Ye Xinfan, she was afraid that she would get implicated by her eldest uncle. Additionally, she was jealous that her auntie was better than her in all aspects so when the two of them encountered difficulties, she couldn’t help but abandon the four years old Ye Xinfan at an unknown bus station. After that, she got frightened and went to look for him again but there was no sign of him anymore.
She was desperate and frightened. She followed the path and looked through the dilapidated streets carefully. When she saw a little beggar that was around the same age, she made a decision and brought the beggar back because she was afraid that she couldn’t answer the elders.
Her life was full of turmoil then. Even now, many things were unclear and unexplainable.
As time went by, the truth got covered by the river of time. No one mentioned it anymore. Grandma Ye didn’t want to remember those moments. She had even forgotten that she did something so ruthless and heartless when she was young.
Hence, she was flabbergasted when Ye Jian dug everything up. She was even more dumbstruck because Ye Jian actually remembered everything she said in the past!
Ye Jian’s gaze was extremely sharp. When she looked over, it felt as though nothing was able to escape her eyes. Grandma Ye acted pitifully a moment ago but it didn’t bring up any pity in Ye Jian.
“You never liked my parents. In the past, I don’t understand why you doted on Ye Zhixiang so much. Now, I know the reason. My dad isn’t your son, to begin with!”
“Since he isn’t your son, you won’t feel pain when you hurt him. My dad was injured and needed to rest but you scolded and insulted him every day. That humble man sat in his room alone for the entire day until the sun rose. He carried a few clothes and left the house while coughing to earn money for his family.”
“The money he earned never reached my mom. Everything was taken by you. Grandma Ye, you traded my dad’s life for money. Tell me, why should I acknowledge you?”
“Why should I acknowledge you?”
The last two sentences of ‘why should I acknowledge you’ were filled with strong hatred. It was so powerful Ye Zhixiang screamed again. Grandma Ye couldn’t maintain her image anymore and moved her legs as she tried to retreat.
Ye Jian had been on the battlefield and had killed enemies before. Hence, her gaze wasn’t just filled with hatred. There was a blood-curdling chill in it. Sometimes, she didn’t know how to suppress her emotions probably so Mrs. Tong would get shocked by her expression too.
This time, as she looked at Grandma Ye trying to act all kind and amiable while she was actually evil and heartless, when she looked at that disgusting face and recalled the past that she was unable to forget for both of her lives, the hatred in her heart, the malicious gaze in her eyes, and the killing intent in her voice surged towards Grandma Ye like the waves of a rising tide. Grandma Ye was so frightened that layers and layers of cold sweat appeared on her back.
