Chapter 1367: Harming others deeply

~8 min read 1,406 words

When Hamid heard that Ye Chen wanted to wire him money, he immediately said nervously, "Oh, Brother, you can't do that. You cured my leg; that's already a huge favor. How can I still take your money..."

Ye Chen smiled, "Aren't you short of money? Feeding people and horses, guns and ammunition—it all costs money. I'm just helping out as much as I can. You don't need to be so polite with me, Brother."

Hamid still wanted to decline, but Ye Chen said firmly, "Brother, if you don't take this money, you don't consider me a friend. Then we won't need to contact each other in the future!"

Upon hearing this, Hamid immediately said without hesitation, "Brother! Since that's the case, then I'll respectfully obey! After your friend arrives, I will definitely do my best to treat him well!"

Su Shoudao, who was on the side, heard all this and felt depressed to death.

"This bastard Ye Chen, is he using my money to earn his own favor?! 100 million US dollars! It's not a lot, but it's not a little either! I've paid 100 million US dollars, and I can't even get a favor in return?"

While depressed, Su Shoudao couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "Although this Ye Chen looks very much like his father Ye Changying, his style of doing things is completely different. Ye Changying was a genuine gentleman. Even if others did some small tricks behind his back, he would never use the same methods to retaliate, but would always be upright and have a clear conscience. But this Ye Chen's style of doing things is strange, ever-changing, and doesn't follow the rules at all!"

"If he were like the Su family, taking people's lives at every turn, although brutal, it would at least be straightforward."

"But he doesn't. He just likes to send people to dog farms, black coal mines, Mount Zhangbai, Syria—this kind of way of playing is almost unheard of in the entire upper-class society of Yanjing!"

"However... it's fortunate that this kid has such bad hobbies. Otherwise, if he really just blew my head off with a gun, that would truly be empty, and everything would be gone..."

Thinking of this, he felt more or less comforted.

Su Zhiyu and Su Ruoli looked at each other. Although they couldn't bear for their father to go far away to Syria, they also knew that this was already Ye Chen showing mercy.

At this time, Ye Chen looked at Du Haiqing and asked with a bit of respect, "Auntie Du, I don't know if you are satisfied with this arrangement?"

The reason Ye Chen asked Du Haiqing was also because he knew that Du Haiqing had loved his father deeply for many years, to the point that her life hadn't been very happy, so he felt more or less some sympathy for Du Haiqing in his heart. Plus, she was his father's contemporary and also his elder, so naturally, he had to give her a bit more respect.

Du Haiqing hurriedly said, "Since Benefactor has already made the decision, I naturally have no objections."

Ye Chen said earnestly, "Auntie Du, you and my father can be considered old friends. You don't need to address me like that. Just call me Ye Chen directly."

Du Haiqing nodded with a look of gratitude.

Ye Chen added, "Regarding the divorce Auntie mentioned just now, please don't worry. In April, during the Qingming Festival, the Ye family will hold an ancestral worship ceremony. I have promised to go back to attend it. At that time, I will have someone bring Mr. Su over from Syria to kowtow and apologize before my parents' graves. I will have the divorce documents prepared in advance, have him sign them personally, and then send him back to Syria."

Upon hearing this, Du Haiqing hurriedly thanked him, "That's truly very kind of you!"

Ye Chen smiled slightly, "It's only right."

Su Shoudao heard that he would be brought from Syria to Yanjing in April to kowtow and apologize before Ye Changying's grave, and he felt depressed beyond measure.

However, he also knew that he was currently fish on Ye Chen's chopping block and could only be slaughtered by him.

Subsequently, Ye Chen called Chen Zekai over and instructed, "Arrange a plane, and then arrange for your most trusted person to send Su Shoudao to Syria. Remember to keep it absolutely confidential on the way. Do not let anyone know Mr. Su's true identity. I will give you Hamid's contact information in a moment. At that time, let Hamid arrange for a helicopter to pick him up at the border line directly. Don't use the Ye family's channels anymore."

Chen Zekai said without hesitation, "Okay, Young Master, I'll go arrange it now!"

Ye Chen nodded, looked at Su Shoudao, and said, "The situation in Syria is complex. After Mr. Su arrives there, try not to attempt to escape. Otherwise, if you meet with any accident, you will have to bear the consequences yourself."

Su Shoudao nodded dejectedly and asked subconsciously, "Mr. Ye, can I bring some personal items? That place is short of everything. If I could bring some toiletries, daily necessities, and clothes and shoes, I would feel more at ease after I go over..."

Ye Chen said coldly, "I'm sending you to experience life, so naturally, you must follow the local characteristics. Use whatever they have. Otherwise, I might as well build you a villa there!"

Seeing that Ye Chen's tone carried a bit of anger, Su Shoudao didn't dare to make any more requests. He was submissive, like a frightened quail.

Ye Chen pointed at Su Shoudao and waved his hand at Chen Zekai, "Take him away."

Chen Zekai immediately greeted two subordinates and took Su Shoudao away from the room.

At this time, in the room, only Ye Chen, the two Su family girls, and Du Haiqing remained.

Although Su Zhiyu's mood was extremely complex, seeing the benefactor she had been thinking of day and night right in front of her, her heart was constantly filled with girlish shyness and nervousness.

Su Ruoli was a bit lost. Although she had also been infatuated with Ye Chen for a long time, she had actually had quite a bit of contact with Ye Chen, unlike Su Zhiyu, who had first longed for him for a long time and then searched for him through crowds of people. Now that she finally saw him, she was naturally excited and unable to control herself.

Du Haiqing's mood was equally complex.

She had suspected before whether the benefactor Su Zhiyu was thinking of day and night might be the boy she saw at Ye Changying's former residence who was suspected to be Ye Changying's son.

Now, this suspicion could be said to have been fulfilled.

The reason her mood was complex was because she had been infatuated with Ye Changying when she was young, but hadn't gotten a result, and now her daughter had fallen in love with Ye Changying's son. If she were to repeat her own mistakes, she, as a mother, would definitely feel extremely heartbroken.

After all, for these thirty years, the feeling of loving but not being able to have had made her unable to let go.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "Ye Changying, oh Ye Changying, you truly harm people deeply..."

However, at the same time, she also had a strong expectation and wish in her heart.

She expected her daughter to be able to truly walk together with Ye Chen, to be able to marry him, to be his wife with peace of mind, and to raise his children.

Because marrying Ye Changying had once been the thing she looked forward to the most.

She understood her daughter and had long seen that her daughter was deeply trapped in the web of love. With her daughter's personality, loving so deeply, she was afraid it would be impossible for her to extricate herself.

Therefore, she believed that deep in her daughter's heart, she must also really want to have a happy ending with Ye Chen.

If her daughter could get what she wished, not only would her daughter harvest a lifetime of happiness, but to a certain extent, it would also be a substitute for herself, fulfilling a wish that she hadn't been able to realize in her lifetime...
