As soon as this matter was brought up, Ye Zizheng became angry.
"Five years ago, you were betrayed by a scumbag and fell off a cliff. We've been looking for you."
He emphasized the words "scumbag" with great force, revealing the depth of his resentment towards that person.
"What's worse, the scumbag also got tired of the old and fond of the new! He doted on the innocent girl! He not only killed you but also erased all traces of you, forbidding anyone to mention your name. Anyone who dared to bring you up, whether a person or the media, would be completely blacklisted."
Ye Zizheng clenched his fists as he spoke, a look of righteous indignation on his face.
"..."
Yu He fell into contemplation. According to his words, she was murdered by a scumbag and an innocent girl?
Was she that foolish before?
She actually fell for the deception of a scumbag?!
Yue Yue listened quietly. No wonder Mommy's past information couldn't be found; it was deliberately erased by someone!
"Wow, isn't this just like a cheesy CEO romance novel? The sister snatched the heroine's boyfriend, and they teamed up to kill the heroine. Years later, the heroine returns for revenge, only to meet a domineering CEO..." Duoduo exclaimed.
Ye Zizheng: "..."
"When did you start reading novels?" Yu He narrowed her eyes at Duoduo and asked sternly.
Duoduo immediately covered her mouth and shook her head, "No, I didn't secretly read novels."
"Oh, so it was *secretly*," Yu He responded with a chilling tone.
Duoduo covered her mouth even tighter.
Her past seemed not very pleasant, and Yu He didn't want the two children to listen any further. "Haven't you two done your homework yet today?"
Duoduo: (ΩДΩ) No! I don't want to do homework.
"It's your fault for being talkative!" Yue Yue said reproachfully.
He still wanted to hear more about his mother's past.
Duoduo: "Wuwu, Mommy, I was wrong. I'll stay and promise not to interrupt again, okay?"
She would rather remain silent than do homework.
"No! Anran, take them to do their homework." Yu He said to Xiao Anran.
Xiao Anran put down the pain relief medicine, took a child by each hand, and said, "Come on, Duoduo, Yue Yue, let's go do our homework. The sooner we finish, the sooner we can sleep."
Although the two children were reluctant, they still obeyed their mother and left.
Otherwise, Mommy would be terrifying when she got angry.
Only Yu He and Ye Zizheng were left in the living room.
The frustration in Ye Zizheng's heart was dispelled by this minor interruption. He watched Yu He's interaction with the children and felt that his sister seemed fiercer after becoming a mother.
She used to give off a cold and detached aura, as if she didn't care about anything. That cool, aloof feeling was still there, but she had also become fiercer, more human.
Especially the way she assigned homework felt so familiar.
He himself had achieved what he had today under her assignments. If the Ye family had acknowledged his sister earlier, he, like Yue Yue, would have had outstanding hacking skills at such a young age.
"Continue," Yu He poured him a glass of water.
Ye Zizheng snapped back to reality and continued, "Mom has always been worried about you, feeling depressed and unhappy all day. Brother even hired people and has been persistently searching for you secretly, saying he'd see her alive or dead, but there's been no result so far; and Grandma Yu..."
He paused here, as if adjusting his emotions.
Hearing about Grandma, Yu He's heart suddenly clenched.
Her subconscious told her that this person was extremely important to her!
"Because of this, she felt immensely guilty, fell seriously ill, and eventually became depressed and unhappy. Not long after, she left the clinic and passed away," Ye Zizheng said.
Yu He felt as if something was gripping her heart, making it difficult to breathe.
Ye Zizheng continued, "The Yu Xianyi Clinic was also forced out of the courtyard by the scumbag. Under the suppression of the scumbag and the innocent girl, it's barely surviving. Only Sister Xiao Ya and Sister Xiao Qing are still holding on at the clinic, refusing to disband."
Yu Xianyi Clinic.
Yu He found the name very familiar. "Where is the clinic now?"
"It's in a small, run-down alley in the capital. If you have time tomorrow, I can take you to see it," Ye Zizheng said.
The clinic was his sister's passion project. Now it was on the verge of collapse. Perhaps with his sister's return, it could be saved.
Yu He: "Okay!"
"After visiting the clinic, let's go back home!" Ye Zizheng added.
He wanted to take his sister back to prove to his elder brother that he wasn't lying!
"Okay," Yu He nodded. Perhaps going back would help her recover some past memories.
Seeing her agreement, Ye Zizheng was overjoyed. He immediately took out his phone to add Yu He on WeChat and save her number.
He leaned closer to Yu He and opened the camera, taking a few photos with her, afraid he was just dreaming and wouldn't see her when he woke up tomorrow.
As he lingered, it was already half-past ten. Seeing that it was getting late and the two children were still doing their homework, he prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he took out a bank card and handed it to Yu He. "Sister, take this card. The password is the last six digits of the card number. Spend whatever you want. If it runs out, I'll transfer more to you. From now on, I'll support you all."
Yu He glanced at his bank card but didn't take it. "Is our family this generous?"
"Yes, if you don't accept my card, Dad, Mom, and brothers will definitely give you more. This is just a small gesture. Please take it."
Ye Zizheng said this and forcibly pressed the bank card into Yu He's hand.
"Even if you don't need it for yourself, you should consider my two nephews. We can't let them go hungry or live in inadequate housing, forcing them to rely on competition prize money for their living expenses."
Yu He: "????"
When had she ever let the two children go hungry or live in inadequate housing?
"Alright, I'm leaving. I'll come find you tomorrow," Ye Zizheng waved.
"Wait, who is the scumbag you mentioned?" Yu He called out to him.
"He's already dead!" Ye Zizheng said angrily.
He didn't want his sister to go looking for Qin Beiting again, walking into a tiger's den. That scoundrel wasn't worthy of his sister!
Yu He: "..."
Yu He: "He's really dead?"
Ye Zizheng: "..."
"Uncle, do you want to stay and live with us?"
The two children, who had been eavesdropping, saw Ye Zizheng about to leave and immediately came out of the room. Duoduo asked expectantly.
Ye Zizheng saw that there were so many of them and thought there might not be a bed for him. "I'm in 1506 downstairs. You can come find me anytime to play."
Duoduo memorized the room number: "Okay!"
"Uncle, I'm sorry about this morning. I originally just wanted to play a prank on you," Yue Yue said earnestly.
He felt guilty about causing Ye Zizheng to miss the finals, and now knowing that this person was his own uncle, he felt even more regretful.
Ye Zizheng had already forgotten about it. "It's fine. We can consider it a case of 'fighting leads to friendship.' But don't think you can win against me just because of this. Next time, we'll have a one-on-one."
"Deal," Yue Yue nodded. "Don't worry, I promise I'll never cut your hair in the month of Zheng again."
Ye Zizheng: "..."
I thank you for your consideration.
