Chapter 620: Do Not Want To Hear It
“...and that I should treat you well unconditionally, indulge you, and even tolerate you hurting my son, then I’ll tell you the real reason behind your father’s death.”
“No, I don’t want to hear it!” Ye Hai rejected Leng Jinpeng instinctively.
“Actually, strictly speaking, your father didn’t save my life. He was a military officer under me. Unable to withstand temptation, he engaged in illegal activities with a criminal syndicate in Yamato. He stole military secrets and committed a severe crime. Initially, I set up a trap to capture him and the criminal syndicate in Yamato in one fell swoop, but I accidentally stepped into their trap instead. At the very last moment of his life, he finally returned to his senses and took a fatal shot for me.
“You are also a soldier, so you should know that the consequence of a soldier’s betrayal to his country and the military is a death sentence. Therefore, even if he did not take the bullet for me, what awaited him was death. Your mother couldn’t accept that he was a traitor and committed suicide by jumping into the river. Your family’s illegal income was also confiscated.”
“At the time, you were still young. You had no parents, and you had no source of income, so I took you in on account of him taking the bullet for me.”
Ye Hai, who stood up in agitation, heard the real reason behind his father’s death. When he saw the contemptuous gaze from the police officers around him, he felt like all the energy in his body was sucked out of him. He fell back into the chair with a thud.
“The reason I took you in was—firstly, because I felt sorry for you. Seeing the way you begged me, I couldn’t bear to send you to an orphanage or SOS Children’s Villages. Secondly, it was indeed because your father begged me to take care of you after he saved me. Therefore, I took you in and raised you like my own son. I wanted you to become talented and not become as crooked as your father. But Ye Hai, you disappoint me.”
“No... I don’t believe it! You must be lying to me. You’re just on Lil Rui’s side to stand up for him, so you’re purposely defaming my dad!”
“You can go to the HR department to find out if I’m defaming him or not. Personnel information can be found there.”
With that, all of Ye Hai’s doubts disappeared.
Simultaneously, that meant that whatever Leng Jinpeng said was the truth.
If he still thought that he could claim to be the son of Leng Jinpeng’s benefactor in the past to attempt moral coercion, then he just lost that position.
“Dad! I know I’m wrong! Can you forgive me, please? I didn’t know that my biological father was such a person. If I knew, I would definitely be grateful. Dad, I’ve truly understood that I’m in the wrong. If Lil Rui encounters such a situation again, I’ll definitely stand up and protect him even at the cost of my life, okay?”
“That’s enough. You’re still pretending even though things have already progressed to this point. The commander-in-chief is such a kind person. How did he raise an ingrate like you?”
Ye Hai, “...” What did he do?
“Hehe, can’t believe you’re still acting in this manner. Ye Hai, you won’t confess until we hand you the evidence, will you?”
Station Chief Wang and one of the police officers could not take it anymore. They shouted at Ye Hai angrily.
“Confess? Confess about what? I didn’t break the law, and Lil Rui is fine. What do you want me to confess to?”
Ye Hai said that just to receive Leng Jinpeng’s extreme look of disappointment.
Ye Hai thought, ‘...What’s going on?’
“Ye Hai, truly, the military base has taught you many things! You should be an officer with outstanding results in the military base, right? In the face of kinship, 15 years of raising you, and the law, you still manage to be oblivious. You... really did it!”
