Chapter 1364: Two conditions!

Upon hearing this, Su Shoudao trembled uncontrollably!

He truly hadn't expected that his two daughters were actually both still alive!

And, they had both been saved by Ye Chen!

In this way, if Ye Chen really made him trade his life, what should he do?!

He was indeed guilty toward his two daughters, and he indeed hoped that his two daughters could be safe and sound, but he was also a human! He hadn't lived enough! He didn't want to die either!

Thinking of this, he shuddered violently and choked with sobs, "Mr. Ye, I swear to heaven, I really didn't kill your parents back then... Your parents' death really has nothing to do with me!"

Having said that, he hurriedly added, "Let me speak from the heart: in the first half of my life, no matter what I did, I was always suppressed by your father. He was a recognized genius of the entire Yanjing, even the entire China—graceful and talented!"

Speaking of this, his expression darkened, and he sighed, "And me? What am I? I'm just the eldest son of the Su family. Not only was I inferior to him in every aspect, but even the woman I loved deeply always loved him. Even after he died, I always lived in his shadow. This shadow has shrouded me until now! Until now!"

Du Haiqing, who was on the side, heard this, and her expression suddenly showed a bit of guilt.

Su Shoudao continued to cry bitterly, "For so many years, although I never admitted with my mouth that Ye Changying was better than me, I knew very clearly in my heart that I, Su Shoudao, was ten thousand miles behind him! With my ability, how could I have killed him?!"

"When he was alive, I indeed hated him to the bone, but think about it: if I could have killed him, why didn't I kill him when he was at his most brilliant? Why didn't I kill him when he was standing at the peak? Why did I wait until after he retired to make a move on him?"

Seeing that he was emotional and that these words were almost like pouring out his heart and venting, Ye Chen realized in his heart that, looking at it this way, Su Shoudao should truly not be the murderer of his parents.

It wasn't just that Su Shoudao's performance showed no clues.

It was also because his words did indeed have some logic.

Ye Chen thought to himself, "He must have hated my father."

"Therefore, if he had that ability, he would have definitely made a move when my father was at his most brilliant and completely overshadowed him."

"He wouldn't have waited until after my father retired to make a move."

"This doesn't follow logic!"

"Moreover, people say my father was a heaven-sent talent, but Su Shoudao couldn't even touch the edge of being a heaven-sent talent. If my father had truly died at the hands of such a petty person, that would probably be a great insult to my father!"

However, even though Ye Chen concluded that Su Shoudao was not the murderer of his parents, he still didn't intend to let Su Shoudao off.

If for nothing else, just for the four words "Anti-Ye Alliance."

Even if these four words didn't ultimately cause his parents' death back then, Su Shoudao had been working against his father for many years, and this was an undeniable offense and sin!

Therefore, just for these four words, Su Shoudao must pay the price!

Thus, Ye Chen said coldly, "Whether my parents' death has anything to do with you is no longer important now, because as you said yourself, your life is not for sacrificing to my parents, but for trading for your two daughters! Even if my parents' death really has nothing to do with you, since Su Zhiyu and Su Ruoli are already standing here safe and sound today, you must die!"

Upon hearing this, Su Shoudao's face turned ashen.

"Yeah."

"Ye Chen is right."

"Leaving aside the matter of his parents, I just said with my own mouth that I was willing to use my life to trade for the lives of my two daughters. I have already made my two daughters disappointed to the extreme, and I can't let them be even more disappointed now..."

But...

Thinking of this, Su Shoudao felt even more painful and conflicted in his heart.

He didn't want to die.

He didn't want to die ten thousand times over.

On one hand, he didn't want to let his two daughters continue to be disappointed, and on the other, he didn't want to just die like this. He suddenly didn't know what to do.

Seeing him lower his head and say nothing, Ye Chen asked with a face full of mockery, "What, do you want to go back on your word now?"

"I... I didn't..." Su Shoudao blurted out.

Ye Chen asked back, "Then how do you want to die? Do you want to die yourself, or do you want me to help you?"

"I..." Su Shoudao was speechless, his whole body twitching and trembling violently.

At this time, he didn't know what he should say.

Say he would die? Then Ye Chen would most likely force him to commit suicide.

Say let him help? Then he might just blow his head off with a gun...

But, with both daughters here, should he go and beg Ye Chen for mercy?

Wouldn't that be equivalent to him going back on his word again, and casting his two daughters aside again?!

Extreme conflict and fear of death made Su Shoudao collapse to the ground as if paralyzed. He only knew how to cry, but couldn't say a single word.

Watching his appearance, Su Zhiyu felt some contempt, but also some reluctance.

She actually wasn't afraid of her father going back on his word.

She was already very disappointed in her father anyway; there was no need to let her father die to prove his sincerity at this time.

Thus, she hesitated for a moment, then knelt in front of Ye Chen with a thud, choking with sobs, "Benefactor... Zhiyu dares to beg you to spare my father..."

Su Ruoli actually had the same thoughts as Su Zhiyu.

Disappointment was true disappointment.

But the bloodline was still there.

The man lying paralyzed on the ground was still her father.

Even if he was as timid as a mouse, even if he was greedy for money, he was still her father.

He had never harmed her with his own hands, so how could she hope for him to die?

Thinking of this, she also knelt on the ground immediately and begged, "Young Master Ye, please show mercy."

Du Haiqing had a complex expression. She also knelt on one knee and said with extreme piety, "Young Master Ye, for these years, as Su Shoudao's wife, I have always been thinking of someone else in my heart, so I do indeed owe him. Although he has a hundred sins, his sins do not deserve death. Please spare his life."

Su Shoudao truly hadn't expected it to be like this.

He hadn't expected that his two daughters, and the wife who was determined to divorce him, would all be kneeling on the ground begging Ye Chen to spare him.

At this moment, his heart was truly filled with extreme guilt.

He covered his face and lay on the ground crying bitterly, because he truly wanted to live, so he didn't have the face to look at his daughters and wife, and could only wait for Ye Chen's verdict.

Ye Chen was also a bit hesitant at this time.

Hesitating whether he should kill Su Shoudao or not.

If he killed him, the Su family still had other sons. It was said that the Su family had five sons; the eldest and second were gone, but there were still the third, fourth, and fifth.

If he didn't kill him, just the breath of the Anti-Ye Alliance was truly hard to swallow.

At this time, he glanced at Su Zhiyu and suddenly said, "Su Zhiyu, if you want me to spare his life, you must agree to two conditions."

Su Zhiyu said without hesitation, "Benefactor, please speak!"

Ye Chen said sternly, "The first condition: no matter what method you use, you must inherit the Su family within three years!"

After hearing this, Su Zhiyu was stunned beyond belief.

She had never thought about inheriting the Su family, and even if she wanted to, she had no opportunity. Let alone that she was a woman, even her father, as the eldest son, hadn't been able to inherit the Su family for so many years. How could she achieve this goal within three years?

However, thinking that this concerned her father's life, she could only bite the bullet and agree first, at least to save her father's life, so she blurted out, "Okay... I agree to it... What is the second condition?"

Ye Chen said coldly, "The second condition: the day you inherit the Su family, you must hand over that old dog Su Chengfeng to me!"

"Before you hand that old dog over to me, Su Shoudao's life will be temporarily kept with me. Once you hand Su Chengfeng over to me, I will return Su Shoudao to you!"
