Chapter 771 - So What If I Am Alone?
“Guards, guards! Guards!” Grandma Ye was the first to react. Simultaneously, she pushed Ye Zhixiang so that she could leave first.
How could Ye Jian let these two people leave so easily? She stepped on the man who kneeled down because of her kick. Her entire body leaped into the air. She used her legs like a pair of scissors and nipped the neck of the other thug who had regained his senses. As she spun in the air, the man screamed in pain and got slammed on the ground by Ye Jian’s scissors kick.
The man became unconscious. No one knew whether he was dead or alive. Coincidentally, his body blocked Ye Zhixiang’s path. Ye Zhixiang was screaming frantically.
“Grandma, you’re really not kind. You even brought thugs along. Do you miss me? In that case, I can only defend myself!” In a blink of an eye, Ye Jian, who took care of two fighters swiftly, stood in front of the mother and daughter. Her smile remained calm as she said, “Since you chose to invite me like this, I can only ask you to leave this way.”
It had been a long time since someone challenged the authority of Grandma Ye. The amiable face now seemed cold and vicious. She had been praying to Buddha for a long time so she had a calm aura around her. When she smiled, everything would think that she was a kind person.
Now, when her face turned cold, she looked even more chilling than those people who looked ruthless most of the time.
However, Ye Jian already noticed something. Grandma Ye only needed to give Ye Zhixiang one look and Ye Zhixiang would listen to her obediently and immediately.
As for Sun Yaozu, he was waiting outside the door. However, the thugs were listening to Grandma Ye’s orders.
That year, Sun Yaozu’s kick made her faint. Then, he threw her outside when she was unconscious. It was snowing heavily that day. In the end, the village leader was the one who saved her.
In the past, she thought that the entire family was afraid of her uncle. From the looks of it now, Sun Yaozu was standing outside the door but he didn’t make an appearance. He allowed Grandma Ye to make all the decisions.
From his actions, one could tell that the person who made decisions in her uncle-in-law’s family… was still Grandma Ye!
An old lady was still able to control her daughter’s family and even her son-in-law was listening to her. This wasn’t an ordinary old lady!
In that case, why did Sun Yaozu hate her so much? Why would her grandma ignore her when she was beaten to death? Why didn’t anyone step out to stop Sun Yaozu’s violent behavior?
She had never thought about these things before. But, after seeing these people, she couldn’t help but ponder about it carefully.
She was just a child. She had no grudges against Sun Yaozu. How could he hate her so much? In that case, there was only one explanation… It was a grudge between her father’s generation. Sun Yaozu shifted his hate for her parents to her!
Another question arose. Her father and Ye Zhixiang were both Grandma Ye’s children. However, why was Grandma Ye so biased? Did she only think about her daughter and nothing of her son?
As someone who came from a capitalist family, could it be possible that Grandma Ye preferred daughters to sons?
No! That wasn’t right! Grandma Ye loved her two grandsons very much, especially her cousin who had the surname ‘Ye’. She loved him so much even the other cousin had to stand aside!
From this, Ye Jian could tell that Grandma Ye still preferred sons to daughters!
At first, Ye Jian didn’t want to bother about the business of the Ye family. Yet, now, all the torment she received when she was young came back. She lost control of her emotions and her expression turned even colder. Even her gaze gave off a sinister feeling.
“That year, I was young and alone. I suffered so much in front of all of you. Now, I’m not the Ye Jian I was in the past. How can I allow you to act like this in front of me again? My grandma is unkind. My family is heartless. If I don’t become stronger, there might be another headless corpse in this city tomorrow morning!”
