Chapter 1004: Interrogation
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
After hearing Lian Mengzhu’s words, Ye Hongxuan seemed to snap out of a daze. He immediately stood up, his tone carrying a hint of urgency. “You’re right. Wanwan might actually know something. Let’s go and ask her right now.”
After speaking, Ye Hongxuan straightly headed out.
Seeing Ye Hongxuan’s anxious demeanor, a trace of hesitation and regret flashed across Lian Mengzhu’s face. She didn’t know if her suggestion was a good idea. However, she was still a bit worried about her husband.
Without delay, Lian Mengzhu followed quickly. She felt her husband was a little too anxious. Moreover, Wanwan was severely injured and couldn’t handle any stress right now.
At this moment, Ye Wanwan had no idea that her father was coming. She was lying on her bed, her thoughts in disarray.
After finding out that her grandfather and Ye Leng’an had gone missing together, she was really shocked. Initially, she thought her grandfather wanted Ye Leng’an to return to the Ye family. However, she didn’t expect that the two of them would actually go missing together.
She didn’t know what her grandfather intended to do, but ever since hearing this news, she felt unsettled. Especially when thinking about the pills her grandfather had given her before, her heart couldn’t calm down.
Just as Ye Wanwan was lost in worried thoughts, the door was suddenly pushed open.
This abrupt sound made Ye Wanwan shudder involuntarily. Then, she saw Ye Hongxuan enter with a displeased expression
His sudden visit worried her.
Because at this moment, almost everyone in the Ye family was looking for her grandfather and Ye Leng’an. Her father should be extremely busy because of this matter and wouldn’t have time to come looking for her. Thus, his visit gave her a bad feeling.
Indeed, after Ye Hongxuan entered the room, he went straight to Ye Wanwan’s bedside and got right to the point, “Wanwan, tell me, what is your grandfather planning?”
Ye Wanwan was startled by the question. She looked up at Ye Hongxuan and couldn’t help but flinch. Then, she asked, “Father, what are you talking about? I don’t understand anything at all.”
She wasn’t sure if her father knew anything, but she didn’t dare mention her grandfather. Despite his disappearance, she still kept quiet, pretending to be confused.
“Wanwan, if you know something, just say it.” Lian Mengzhu, who had just arrived, quickly said, “Given the current situation, if anything happens to Ye Leng’an, our Ye family won’t be able to handle it.”
Ye Hongxuan also stared at Ye Wanwan intently. “Wanwan, spill it! Now, because of this matter, our entire Ye family is about to be turned upside down. If this continues, our Ye family will not only offend the Huangfu family but also the Enforcement Team.”
After hearing Ye Hongxuan’s words, although Ye Wanwan struggled internally, she still shook her head in the end. “Father, I really don’t know anything.”
Although she didn’t know what pills her grandfather had given her, she knew very well that she absolutely couldn’t let anyone else know about it, even her father. That medicinal pills were too strange.
Therefore, even though she felt guilty and knew the importance of this matter, she still couldn’t say it out loud.
Seeing Ye Wanwan’s evasive gaze, a flash of disappointment crossed Ye Hongxuan’s eyes. Then, his tone became tough. “Wanwan, you have to tell me everything you know. Otherwise, you won’t be able to stay in the Ye family in the future.”
Ye Wanwan was stunned. She raised her head abruptly and looked at Ye Hongxuan, her eyes filled with shock. “Father, what do you mean?”
She couldn’t believe that her father, who had always doted on her, would say such harsh words. Even when she had wronged Ye Leng’an in the past, her father had never said such things.
Even Lian Mengzhu, standing aside, was shocked when she heard Ye Hongxuan’s words. “Hongxuan…”
She barely had time to speak when Ye Hongxuan cut her off.
“Shut up.” Ye Hongxuan glanced at Lian Mengzhu with a warning look. He then turned his head and looked at Ye Wanwan deeply, his tone carrying a rare seriousness. “Wanwan, I’m not joking with you. This matter has implicated our Ye family too deeply. Do you know what kind of situation we’re facing because of this?”
Seeing Ye Hongxuan’s expression, Ye Wanwan felt tongue-tied, unable to utter a word.
Ye Hongxuan didn’t wait for Ye Wanwan’s reply and continued, “Neither the Huangfu family nor the Enforcement Team is easy to deal with. Now that we’ve offended both of them at the same time, do you think the Ye family can escape this calamity? As a member of the Ye family, if things get out of hand because of your concealment, do you think you can still stay? Or rather, you no longer see yourself as a member of the Ye family now. That’s why you want to hide it and put the Ye family in jeopardy.”
After those tough words, Ye Wanwan grew extremely anxious. She hurriedly responded, “No, Father, it’s not what you think. I never meant any harm to the Ye family. I just… It’s just…”
“If you still see yourself as part of the Ye family and us as your parents, spill it all. Also, spill the beans about what you and your grandfather have been doing. Otherwise, I won’t hold back.”
After hearing Ye Hongxuan’s harsh words, Ye Wanwan was utterly frightened. She had no other choice but to tell him everything that had happened recently. Of course, this included the pills Ye Yikun had given her to increase her cultivation.
In her opinion, those medicinal pills were the strangest. This was also the reason why she had never dared to say it out loud because she was afraid that she would have to bear the responsibility.
