Chapter 1274: A Painful Choice

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Although Tian Donghua had already thought of it, Yang Ming must have stood on the opposite side of his father and had become enemies. Then Tian Donghua must choose a position.

Helping Tian Long to deal with Yang Ming together was impossible. If Tian Donghua had this intention, he would not be put under house arrest, but to help Yang Ming to deal with his father, Tian Donghua still couldn’t do it.

After all, that person was his father, the person who gave life to him and nurtured him. So, Tian Donghua couldn’t be so determined. But recalling what his father did, Tian Donghua himself knew that his father was really hopeless. Yang Ming had to deal with him, and he would never stop Yang Ming!

Even if his father didn’t have Yang Ming to deal with him, he would never have a good ending, so Tian Donghua clenched his teeth and said to Yang Ming, “What about my father?”

Yang Ming nodded. He had to say this to Tian Donghua openly in the end. After all, when Tian Donghua knew Yang Ming had a conflict with Tian Long, he decided to stand on Yang Ming’s side, even at the expense of getting into an argument with his father!

But no matter what, the other party was Tian Donghua’s father. Since Tian Donghua really treated him as a friend and a good brother, Yang Ming couldn’t ignore him. In terms of how to deal with Tian Long, Yang Ming decided to discuss it with Tian Donghua.

“Okay…” Tian Donghua smiled bitterly. “Since my father did such a thing, I don’t want to talk for him. Bro, you should be careful…”

Tian Donghua originally thought that Yang Ming and his father could not fight, but now, Tian Donghua knew that he had looked down on Yang Ming.

Since Yang Ming could buy Zhang Jinguo over to release him and the Sun Family, then Yang Ming could also buy other people around his father. He still had a certain degree of certainty in dealing with Tian Long.

This was a painful choice, but Tian Donghua had to make a choice. After further consideration, Tian Donghua decided not to help either side. One was his father, and the other one was his own brother. Tian Donghua couldn’t make a choice. Secondly, Tian Donghua really couldn’t help.

But what he meant by saying this was to indicate Yang Ming his position – Even if you have to deal with my father, I have no problem here…

One could imagine how painful Tian Donghua was at the moment.

Yang Ming was slightly surprised. He didn’t understand the specific meaning of Tian Donghua’s words, but after thinking about it, he understood. Tian Donghua definitely had a misunderstanding. He still didn’t know that Yang Ming had captured Tian Long!

“Donghua, Tian Long… Your father, I have already caught him…” Yang Ming patted Tian Donghua’s shoulder and pointed to the room behind him where the Sun Family had been under house arrest. “He’s just In that room.”

” Ah -” Tian Donghua was suddenly stunned, but after a little surprise, Tian Donghua recovered himself. “You mean… my dad already…”

Yang Ming nodded. “You are my good brother, so I really don’t have a suitable solution for the handling of this matter. It is really a headache.”

Tian Donghua was also silent. He did not expect Yang Ming to really catch his father. This was really difficult for Tian Donghua. His original thought was that although Yang Ming was powerful, his father was not weak. The best ending was that they could personally negotiate for peace.

But now, since Yang Ming had seized Tian Long and had a relationship with the Sun Family, could his father have a good ending? Actually, Yang Ming could completely settle Tian Long without having to discuss it with Tian Donghua. However, if Yang Ming still spoke to him, it meant that Yang Ming regarded him as a brother.

But the more this was the case, the more Tian Donghua felt guilty, and the more he couldn’t interfere with Yang Ming! Obviously, his father did something wrong. He deserved to be caught by Yang Ming. How could Tian Donghua cover up for his father? That would be too unjust!

What’s more, Tian Donghua also knew about Sun Hongjun’s personality. He was, at least, a person with status in the society. This time, Tian Long ambushed and put him under house arrest for such a long time. He must be furious!

Moreover, Tian Long betrayed first. Once Sun Hongjun had seized Tian Long in reverse, how could he let Tian Long go? Probably this time, Tian Long would be more subject to a disastrous end. Sun Hongjun would never let him go!

Thinking of this, Tian Donghua was sad, but he also knew that if he forced Yang Ming to do anything, Yang Ming would try his best to complete it. But, the key was whether the people from the Sun Family could agree!

Once he asked Yang Ming to give his father a way to live, Yang Ming would definitely do his best. But, in contrast, wasn’t that creating a divide between Yang Ming and the Sun Family?

So after weighing the pros and cons again and again, Tian Donghua said in the end, “Bro, settle it as you see fit. You don’t need to take care of my feelings! My father has this result today because he deserves it. I will not speak for him, letting you be troubled.”

Yang Ming didn’t expect Tian Donghua to say these words. Yang Ming thought that Tian Donghua would ask him not to pursue Tian Long’s responsibility as respect to Donghua, but that was obviously impossible. Even if he did not pursue Tian Long’s responsibilities, Tian Long could not continue to work under the Sun Family.

But Yang Ming never expected that Tian Donghua would let him make the call and not interfere! How much effort did it take to make this choice? However, what Tian Donghua said reduced Yang Ming’s pressure in his heart.

Although Yang Ming also wanted to execute Tian Long, Yang Ming couldn’t do this because of his relationship with Tian Donghua. But even if he didn’t kill Tian Long, he would not let him go easily. However, since Tian Donghua made such a statement, Yang Ming had something in his mind.

Thinking of this, Yang Ming felt a lot at ease and smiled at Tian Donghua. “Let’s go. Come in with me and talk to your father.”

Tian Donghua was also very worried about his father’s situation despite the argument he had with Tian Long and the difference in opinions. After all, they were father and son! But, Tian Donghua still hesitated at this moment!

He didn’t know how to face his father. In the blink of an eye, his father became a prisoner. Tian Donghua was really afraid that he couldn’t help himself and ask Yang Ming to do something which put him into a difficult spot.

So Tian Donghua flinched. He was a person who knew what was right and wrong. Naturally, he knew that there was nothing strange about his father’s current end, so Tian Donghua would not even want to see Tian Long at the moment.

“I… Just forget it…” Tian Donghua sighed heavily and said helplessly.

“What’s wrong?” Yang Ming was baffled. At this time, Tian Donghua should really want to see Tian Long, right?

“Nothing. I don’t know how to face him. The relationship between us, three…” Tian Donghua shook his head. “I’m afraid I can’t help but plead for him.”

Tian Donghua was also a bachelor. In front of Yang Ming, he did not want to hide, so he said his thoughts directly.

Yang Ming didn’t think that Tian Donghua didn’t want to see Tian Long because of this. He suddenly felt dumbfounded. He replied after a brief surprise, “Let’s go. We should go in together and say what you want to say.”

Tian Donghua looked up incredulously and wanted to see Yang Ming’s expression, but found that Yang Ming had taken the lead. Tian Donghua once again lowered his head and carefully pondered upon what Yang Ming said.

Seeing that Yang Ming had gone far ahead, Tian Donghua clenched his teeth and quickly followed.

Zhang Jinguo settled down the Sun Family and ran over to see if Yang Ming needed anything. Until now, Zhang Jinguo’s heart still fluctuated heavily. He thought, It is still Mr. Yang who is more powerful. When I saw him captured, I was terrified. Fortunately, it was a strategy to lure the enemy. It seemed that Tian Long had lost.

“Open the door,” Yang Ming glanced at Zhang Jinguo and informed him.

“Yes!” Zhang Jinguo quickly opened the door in front of Yang Ming and said, “Mr. Yang… Young Master Tian, here you go…”

Zhang Jinguo could notice it as well that Yang Ming was actually a group with Tian Donghua, which was really a mess. The person imprisoned inside was actually Great Young Master Tian’s father. However, these things were not what Zhang Jinguo could speculate. It was better off for him to know less at that level. The more things he knew about the upper level, the worse it was for Zhang Jinguo.

Tian Long heard the sound of the door opening and raised his head slightly. He did not expect to lose, and he lost in Yang Ming’s hands. He was unwilling, but he could do nothing.

Seeing that Yang Ming came in, Tian Long said coldly, “What are you doing here? If you want to kill me, just do it. I have nothing to say to you.”

” Haha , Tian Long, you and I have nothing to talk about. Isn’t there someone you want to meet before you die?” Yang Ming’s voice was peaceful but with an utter chill, causing Tian Long’s heart to be very uncomfortable.

Tian Long was stunned subconsciously, Am I going to die? Before I die, I naturally want to see my two sons… But, will Yang Ming agree with this request?

Tian Donghua, who was about to step forward, heard Yang Ming’s words. His footsteps stopped with his facial expression frozen! Although Tian Donghua was prepared, Yang Ming and the Sun Family would definitely not let go of his father. The ultimate possibility was to plead guilty through death.

But, after actually hearing Yang Ming say this, Tian Donghua’s heart became chaotic, and he didn’t know how to deal with it.

Yang Ming also noticed the peculiar situation behind him. He looked back at Tian Donghua and said, “Donghua, come in. After all, for certain things, you still have to face it in the end.”

Tian Donghua’s face turned dull as he nodded. He walked in and looked at Tian Long, who was tied up on the ground, feeling heartache. Yesterday, he was still high and mighty. The father, who was strategizing, became a prisoner today. But who was to blame for this?

“Dad…” Tian Donghua carefully glanced at his father on the floor. He had so many words to say, but once it reached his mouth, he didn’t know what to say! Indeed, he really didn’t know what to say, having no idea about it.

“Donghua, you don’t have to be sad…” Tian Long saw his son, and the expression on his face became soothing. “There has been a saying since ancient times that justice will be tilted towards the victor, and the defeated will be treated unfairly. Your father has lost. I never thought that I couldn’t fight with this junior in the end… I’m really ashamed…”

“Dad, how come you’re still obsessed until this point?” Tian Donghua listened to Tian Long’s words and suddenly got angry. “Don’t you realize that you have done wrong from the beginning?”

“Wrong?” Tian Long laughed at himself. “There is no absolute right or wrong in this world. The so-called right or wrong is based on one’s own position, and it is selfish!”

“Aren’t you selfish?” Yang Ming couldn’t help but sneer and interrupted.

“Yes, I am selfish! Every man for himself!” Tian Long did not deny it. Instead, he admitted it. “I’m selfish, but I don’t think that what I’m doing is wrong! I did it for Tian Donghua’s future. What wrong do I have? I’m not wrong!”

“Dad, you still don’t understand. My future is my own struggle, not for you to give to me.” Tian Donghua sighed. “I don’t need you like this…”

“No need? Hmph , let me tell you, once Sun Hongjun and I are in the coffin, what will happen to your position in the Sun Family? Are you clear about it yourself? Can they trust you like trusting me? What do you do during that time?” said Tian Long coldly.

“Tian Long, actually you are wrong,” Yang Ming listened to Tian Long’s words and finally knew why he was determined to betray Sun Hongjun. He turned out to be planning for the future.

Since ancient times, a new sovereign came with new courtiers; a new leader came with a new leading body. Tian Long was afraid that after Sun Jie and Sun Zhiwei were in power, they would shun Tian Donghua, so Tian Long struck first to gain the advantage.

“I am wrong? How am I wrong?” Tian Long was not angry but laughed at this time. Tian Donghua said that he was wrong, and Yang Ming actually stirred up here.

“I don’t really put the Sun Family business in my eye. The business I own in Africa is a hundredfold of theirs. Including Sun Jie, they will go with me in the future, so who will I leave Donghai’s Sun Family’s business?” Yang Ming snorted. “Use your pig brain to think about it. Sun Zhiwei is hopeless. Of the friends I trust, except for Zhang Bing, who else will it be? The only one left is your son, Tian Donghua, who is way smarter than you! I will give Song Jiang’s business to Zhang Bing. As for who will be acquiring Donghai’s business, think about it yourself!”

Once Yang Ming’s spoke those words, not only was Tian Long surprised, but Tian Donghua too! Tian Donghua never imagined that Yang Ming would say this. He did not think that Yang Ming would hand over the business for him to take care of!

What kind of trust was this?! Tian Donghua suddenly had a sore nose. He didn’t expect his position in Yang Ming’s heart to be so important. Yang Ming could entrust him with such important things.

” Ha ? You can say anything now!” After a short surprise, Tian Long recovered himself and laughed loudly. “Even if you exaggerated the tale as if pigs could fly in the sky, it is still useless! Who doesn’t know how to boast after the fact? If you have this idea, why didn’t you say it before? Besides, what is the use of your promise? Can Sun Hongjun still listen to you?”

At the moment, Tian Donghua licked his pursed lips and somewhat did not agree. Because he knew that Yang Ming kept his word, he could not merely promise anything.

Sure enough, Tian Donghua thought that way too, but Yang Ming had spoken up.

“First, Tian Long, I can tell you very clearly, what I said is not done after the fact!” Yang Ming looked at Tian Long and said word by word, “You are you. Tian Donghua is Tian Donghua. You, father and son, are different. I will not vent my anger because of your matter, so what I said is still valid! I will hand over all the affairs of Donghai to Tian Donghua before leaving.”

Tian Long didn’t expect Yang Ming to say this. In this case, Yang Ming could still give this promise. In Tian Long’s opinion, it was somewhat ridiculous, but he did not speak. He would rather listen to Yang Ming and see what Yang Ming would say.

Tian Donghua could no longer control his emotions. He felt tears creep into his eyes. “Bro… I don’t want anything…”

Yang Ming waved his hand and gestured for Tian Donghua not to say anything, but to let him continue. “Secondly, about whether or not Uncle Sun agrees, I can tell you for sure. If he knows that the assets I have now are ten times or a hundred times more than his, he won’t care about it anymore!”

“Ten times or a hundred times?” Tian Long’s eyes widened, and he didn’t believe it. Yang Ming actually had so much money! In fact, the Sun Family’s assets should be worth hundreds of millions. If Yang Ming said it was ten times or a hundred times more than that, how much was that?

“Of course, ten times or a hundred times is just a metaphor,” said Yang Ming faintly.

Tian Long breathed a sigh of relief. He thought, Just as I thought. How can it be that much? This kid is great at bragging. Just before he confirmed his thoughts, Yang Ming spoke again.

“It should be at least a thousandfold,” added Yang Ming.

” Ah? ” Tian Long was really dumbfounded this time. He didn’t know if Yang Ming was bragging, or if Yang Ming really reached that height.

“To tell the truth, Tian Long, you are really impatient.” Yang Ming sighed. “However, your thoughts and my ideas for the results are the same which is to let Donghua take care of this business. However, since things have already happened, then don’t blame me for being unkind.”

After Tian Long listened to Yang Ming’s words, it seemed that he finally realized something. Perhaps, Yang Ming had already reached a height that he could not reach, and because of this, Yang Ming could buy the people around him and get things done.

There was still a gap between Tian Long and Yang Ming.

“If you can really fulfill your promise, then I will die without regret.” Tian Long took a sigh of relief. He did not expect Yang Ming’s idea was actually as such. Although he did not know whether it was true, since Yang Ming said it, it was possible. It could be considered a comfort before his death.

“If I said it, it must be fulfilled. Of course, it is only for friends.” Yang Ming looked at Tian Donghua and said, “I don’t have many friends. In school, I only have Zhang Bing and Tian Donghua. So, my promise to him will definitely count.”

Tian Long nodded and said, “Okay. If it is true, I thank you!”

“You, father and son, if there is anything to say, just say it as soon as possible. I will go out first and leave some private space for you.” Yang Ming said this and without waiting for Tian Long and Tian Donghua to answer, turned around.
