Chapter 1168: What Other Secrets Are There!
“Your father is my son. I can do whatever I want to do to him. He’s just someone I picked up from the streets. No one knows where he came from! As for your mother, what if she was a stubborn person. At least I’m alive. She has already turned into a pile of white bones!”
You have a strong personality, right? In that case, I will say things you don’t want to hear. Let’s see if an 18-year-old teenager like you can control your temper!
She purposely lowered her voice at the start but towards the end, as Grandma Ye slowly tightened her grip around Ye Jian’s wrist, her voice got louder too. It was filled with the helplessness of an old lady. “Jian, things that happened so many years ago can’t be fully explained using just your mouth. Your father’s surname is Ye. Your surname is Ye too. Whether you admit it or not, the entire village knows that your father was my son and you’re my granddaughter. No one can change that. You have to acknowledge it even if you don’t want to.”
“You’re still young so you trust bad people easily.” When she said this, Grandma Ye glanced at Princ.i.p.al Chen slightly. Then, she continued in a sorrowful voice, “I didn’t blame you for being insensitive and I’ve never blamed you for not coming to see me. But, my child, no matter how far you walk, no matter how close you are with other people, your surname is still ‘Ye’.”
Her voice was full of sorrow. Within a few sentences, she made Ye Jian into an unfilial child that had abandoned her ancestry.
The ‘bad person’, Princ.i.p.al Chen, raised his eyelids calmly. When he noticed that there weren’t any signs of anger on Ye Jian’s face, a small smile appeared on his time-beaten stern face.
This Grandma Ye was quite a figure. No wonder her daughter and son-in-law relied on her for so many years. She wasn’t able to lay her hands on the teachers so she decided to provoke Ye Jian.
They wanted to take Ye Jian’s registered residence but their ulterior motive was to destroy Ye Jian’s future!
Before the university entrance examination, all students would be protected by their parents and the school as if they were giant pandas. They were afraid that they would get distracted and thus affect their exam.
Last year, the grandfather of a student from Grade Twelve Cla.s.s One pa.s.sed away but the student’s family didn’t tell him so that he was able to concentrate on his exam. They only brought him to his grandfather’s grave after the university entrance exam ended.
They didn’t dare to tell the student even when one of his family pa.s.sed away because they were afraid it would affect his university entrance examination.
On the other hand, Grandma Ye pretended to come to take a look at her granddaughter because she missed her so much but in fact, she had an ulterior motive! They wanted to ruin Ye Jian’s university entrance examination!
Princ.i.p.al Chen could see this so Princ.i.p.al Cao and Mrs. Tong were able to see it too.
If Ye Jian didn’t stop the two of them secretly, based on Mrs. Tong’s temper, she might have already invited Grandma Ye out of the school.
However, Ye Jian’s gaze caused them to feel at ease. For some reason, she always had an aura that made one want to believe her. No talking was needed. One look was enough to let someone’s anxiousness disappear.
Her voice was slightly cold, like the frost on leaves in the early mornings of Winter. “Grandma Ye, isn’t there already one bad guy in your family? I’ve already met a bad guy that wants to kill me. Do you think I will believe bad guys again?”
She lifted the corners of her lips slightly. There was a bright smile on her beautiful face. It was bright but not seductive. There were remnants of darkness in her smile. Even Grandma Ye, who had experienced much of life, felt her heart constricting.
Why did Ye Zhixiang feel guilty? Why did Grandma Ye feel relieved… Ye Jian had so many questions in her heart. She opened her mouth and said, “Grandma Ye, I was able to come out alive from the base of bad guys, the Ye family, because I had good people helping me. Don’t talk to me about good or bad people. I’m afraid that I…”
