Chapter 1500: Not his opponent

Ye Zhongquan's words made Zhong Zhengtao feel very unhappy deep in his heart.

In his view, these words of Ye Zhongquan were clearly protecting his own.

He looked for him, hoping that he could give face, help say a good word to Ye Chen, and see if this matter could be turned from big to small, and small to nothing.

But he never dreamed that Ye Zhongquan would directly say to himself that he couldn't afford to offend his grandson?!

This was also bullying people too much!

Ye Zhongquan seemed to guess what he was thinking and said seriously: "Little Zhong, I know you must think I am protecting Ye Chen in disguise, but I tell you the truth, Ye Chen is my grandson, but even if I and the entire Ye family do not interfere at all, you are simply not his opponent."

Zhong Zhengtao naturally didn't believe it. Hearing this, a burst of anger rose in his heart, and the tone of his speech became a bit harsh. He said coldly: "I, Zhong Zhengtao, am not someone who is afraid, and even less someone who lets people ride on my neck and shit! If Old Master Ye and the Ye family can really not interfere at all, I would like to weigh it with that Ye Chen to see whose wrist is harder!"

Ye Zhongquan sighed and said: "If you really want to break your wrist with Ye Chen, I won't stop you, and I can promise you that I will never interfere. But if you lose to Ye Chen, you will likely not regain your personal freedom in the next few years. You have so many brothers and sisters in the Zhong family, if something happens to you, the control of the Zhong Group will be in someone else's hands."

Zhong Zhengtao was speechless.

Listening to Ye Zhongquan's tone, he suddenly felt that Ye Zhongquan didn't seem to be protecting his own.

However, he really couldn't accept the result of his son being detained so unclearly and having to be a sailor for three years.

However, he also felt that if he really went to break his wrist with that Ye Chen, in case he lost, just as Ye Zhongquan said, other half-brothers and sisters would probably rush up to fight for his resources.

Combining with what Ye Zhangmin just said, he gradually felt that Ye Zhangmin and Ye Zhongquan didn't seem to have lied to him.

At this moment, a thought of retreating sprouted in his heart again.

Subsequently, he called Ye Zhangmin again. As soon as the call went through, he asked in a deep voice: "Zhangmin, tell me the truth, how difficult is it to deal with your nephew?"

Ye Zhangmin thought for a while and sighed: "During the New Year, I wasn't in Yan Jing for more than half a month, do you remember?"

"Remember." Zhong Zhengtao said: "During that time, I kept suspecting whether you had someone else outside. When I asked you to meet, you said you weren't in Yan Jing, asked where you were, you wouldn't say, and you never answered my video calls."

Ye Zhangmin said depressedly: "I didn't plan to tell you about this matter, because it was too shameful, but since it's come to this, I won't hide it from you."

Speaking of this, Ye Zhangmin paused, took a deep breath, and said frankly: "Actually, during that time, I was in Jin Ling."

"You were in Jin Ling at that time?" Zhong Zhengtao hurriedly followed up: "Were you at your nephew's place?"

Ye Zhangmin said gloomily: "I was detained by him in a slum..."

"What?!" Zhong Zhengtao asked in horror: "You were detained by him?! Why?! You are his aunt!"

Ye Zhangmin said sullenly: "In his eyes, this aunt of mine is probably not even as good as a fart."

As she spoke, Ye Zhangmin remembered the suffering at that time, couldn't help but sob, and said: "That time I went to Jin Ling, even Ye Chen's subordinates could slap me at will. When have I ever suffered such grievances in my life? And, during those more than half a month, I could only live in a shanty town with a few hundred yuan of rent a month, with someone watching, unable to go out, unable to shop online, and eating according to the local minimum living standard, it was simply a living hell..."

Zhong Zhengtao was completely shocked.

He knew exactly what kind of person Ye Zhangmin was. If even Ye Zhangmin suffered such a big loss under Ye Chen, it was enough to prove that this Ye Chen was definitely not a good person, and must be a hard bone that couldn't be chewed!

If even Ye Zhangmin couldn't chew it, then he would definitely be enough to choke.

Hearing the crying on the other end of the phone, Zhong Zhengtao hurriedly said: "Zhangmin, why didn't you tell me these things earlier?"

Ye Zhangmin sighed and said helplessly: "What's the use of telling you these things? Even I can't afford to offend Ye Chen, can I let you go to find him and die?"

Zhong Zhengtao said awkwardly: "You... you are considered my woman anyway, if you say a word, I am definitely willing to go through fire and water for you!"

Ye Zhangmin smiled: "I'm satisfied that you have this heart, but I, Ye Zhangmin, have lived for so long, who can be offended and who cannot, I can still see clearly."

As she spoke, Ye Zhangmin paused for a moment and continued: "I used to be just like you, feeling that Ye Chen was just a Ye family member who had been lost outside for many years. First, in a small place like Jin Ling, it's impossible to have any great ability; second, as a Ye family member who had been lost outside for many years, seeing me, this aunt who had never left the Ye family, he must be respectful. However, who could have known that he doesn't put anyone in his eyes at all."

Immediately after, Ye Zhangmin added: "And, Ye Chen is not only strong in his own strength and deeply rooted in Jin Ling, more importantly, his supporters behind him are not just the Ye family, but the entire Gu family! It can even be said that the Gu family's attitude toward supporting him is much more firm than my father's."

"The Gu family?!" Zhong Zhengtao blurted out: "Why does the Gu family support him so much?"

Ye Zhangmin asked back: "Gu Yanzhong and my second brother were sworn brothers, the two families had a marriage contract when the children were young, don't you know this?"

Zhong Zhengtao said awkwardly: "Things from more than twenty years ago, how could I remember so clearly..."

Ye Zhangmin said helplessly: "You should know about Gu Yanzhong's late-stage pancreatic cancer and almost dying some time ago, right?"

"Know." Zhong Zhengtao said: "Heard he got better inexplicably? It's quite unbelievable!"

Ye Zhangmin gave an 'en' and said faintly: "Ye Chen cured him."

"Ye Chen?!" Zhong Zhengtao's chin almost dropped in shock, blurted out: "Isn't pancreatic cancer known as the king of cancers? Even Steve Jobs in the US couldn't cure it, how did he cure it? This is a bit contrary to common sense!"

Ye Zhangmin chuckled twice: "Hehe, I don't know how he cured it, but he really cured it. So he is not only Gu Yanzhong's life-saving benefactor, but also the only son-in-law candidate in Gu Yanzhong's heart. Gu Yanzhong only has one daughter, whoever his daughter marries is the heir to Gu Yanzhong's future wealth. So think for yourself, can you afford to offend Ye Chen?"

Zhong Zhengtao was truly convinced this time.

He finally knew that the Ye Chen his son provoked was a combination of three forces.

Ye Chen himself was a school of his own, and there was support from the Ye family and the Gu family behind him. In this situation, there were probably not many people in the country who could afford to offend him, let alone himself?

Thinking of this, his heart was filled with desolation.

Looking at it this way, his son couldn't be saved.

After thinking over and over, his heart gradually changed from struggling and entanglement to natural abandonment. Subsequently, he asked Ye Zhangmin: "Zhangmin, can you do me a favor?"

Ye Zhangmin then said: "You say."

Zhong Zhengtao said: "Trouble you to say a good word to your nephew, let me have a phone call with Tianyu..." ===== CHAPTER 1501 =====
