Ye Qing took a deep breath. She suppressed those various emotions. In a very helpless tone, she said to Ye Zhen, “Zhenzhen, we’re a family after all. Family harmony is important. You’ve already done enough. Don’t go too far.”
“In that moment when Mr. and Mrs. Ye took that 30 million yuan, we stopped being a family. Kidnapping and extortion is illegal. I don’t think I’ve done anything outrageous!”
Mother Ye tightly grasped Ye Qing’s hand. She was anguished over Ye Zhen’s words that were completely lacking in warmth and feeling.”Ye Zhen, no matter what, he’s your dad. How could you... How could you do something like this?!”
Ye Zhen laughed in anger.
“First, it’s a fact that Ye Zhenting committed kidnapping and extortion. There’s human testimony and material evidence of that. If you’re unconvinced, you can go ask the police officers. Second, Mr. Ye and you were the ones that agreed to a buyout of my relationship with your family for 30 million yuan. I don’t think I’ve done anything wrong in this regard.”
“He’s still your dad. Can’t you give him a chance?”
Ye Zhen’s expression was cold and indifferent. She wasn’t moved at all. “Sorry, this is a criminal case. Even if I want to give him a chance, I don’t have the power to do so.”
Mother Ye looked at Ye Zhen with hatred and resentment. A steady stream of tears dripped down. She tightly held Ye Qing’s hand and angrily rebuked Ye Zhen, “I shouldn’t have given birth to you. I should have strangled you the moment you were born!”
When did the Ye’s start going downhill? After thinking about it for a long time, Mother Ye came to the conclusion that it was when Ye Zhen took Ye Qing’s place in marrying Lu Beichuan.
Since that moment, the Ye’s seemed plagued with misfortune. Nothing went well for them. Ye Zhenting failed in his investment, Ye Qing wasn’t able to become popular in the entertainment industry. And till this day, things still weren’t going well. Ye Zhenting had been put behind bars, leaving Ye Qing and her dependent on each other for survival.
In contrast, Ye Zhen’s life was going so well! She was enjoying the life of being a wife to a rich man. That life hadn’t been meant for her originally.
Ye Zhen mocked, “Did you ask me if I want to be born to you?”
“You...”
Ye Qing tried to smooth things over. She earnestly persuaded, “Zhenzhen, don’t talk back. Be considerate of Mom’s feelings.”
“I don’t have anything else to say to you. I only came here to give my deposition. Now that I’m done with that, it’s time for me to leave.” Ye Zhen clutched Lu Beichuan’s hand and made the motion to leave.
Mother Ye was trembling all over. She stared at Ye Zhen. “So you’ve hardened your heart and won’t help your dad?”
“I’ve already said that Mr. Ye broke the law. There’s nothing I can do about that.”
“Fine...” Mother Ye sneered. She suddenly turned her gaze to Lu Beichuan and stared at him with desperation in her eyes.”
“Lu Beichuan, listen carefully. Ye Qing was the one that your grandfather wanted to marry you when you were in a coma after your car accident!” Mother Ye was going all out. She pointed at Ye Zhen. “Your wife should be Ye Qing! Ye Zhen impersonated her older sister to marry you!”
Mother Ye made it sound as if Ye Qing was the victim.
“Mom!” Ye Qing seemed embarrassed. She patiently endured and quietly said, “It’s all in the past. Don’t mention this anymore. Everything is fine as long as Ye Zhen is happy.”
Ye Qing made it sound as if there really was an untold secret from back then, but she was refraining from talking about it because of hidden sorrow and difficulties. She patiently persuaded Mother Ye and wryly smiled to act forgiving and magnanimous in front of Lu Beichuan.
Her careful painstaking effort to dissuade was a sharp contrast to Mother Ye’s reckless behavior.
“How can I not mention it? Why should I keep quiet? I’m telling the truth!” She looked at Lu Beichuan. Her expression was deranged. “Lu Beichuan, take a good look! Ye Qing is the one that should be your wife. Ye Zhen is the one wrongfully usurping her older sister’s place!”
T/N: Hey guys, we started a new comedic novel, A Fake Holy Mother in the Zombie Apocalypse. It’ll be translating it at least 3x/week. It’s a light-hearted novel where MC follows the system’s tasks to the letter, but not the spirit of it XD.
