The shock was written across Ye Jian’s face, what Third Master Hou meant was, she’s going to be under his care in the future?
With the appropriate amount of shock insight, Hou Zi’s roared even louder with laughter. He thought she would still remain calm, so also she would still be shocked, “If you’re free, come stay in my hotels, Brother Zi doesn’t have anything much, but I have plenty of empty rooms in my hotels.”
Once Hou Zi found someone as pleasant, even his tone was filled with familiarity. This was a man who would not allow others to refuse him, a man who others cannot defy against. It was effortless to feel his sincere thoughts.
Things have progressed so far while she was inattentive. Even though Ye Jian’s brain could process tasks very fast, she still couldn’t catch up to his pace momentarily.
Seeing him leave, till the moment he closed the door, and Ye Jian was still quite shocked.
The person whom she had such a difficult time finding in her past life, had appeared so quickly in her current life, and had directly ordered her to call him ‘Brother Zi,’ and said that if she needed anything in the future, she could hit him up anytime.
After sitting back down in her chair, Ye Jian couldn’t help but to sigh, too much stuff had changed during this life when she didn’t need Third Master Hou’s protection, she managed to acquire it with extreme ease during her current life.
Though she didn’t need it anymore, that was still something that delighted her.
At the very least, when she heard him say ‘you can contact me at any time’, her heart was more or less agitated as if she had accomplished something huge.
Because the thing she hadn’t managed to accomplish until her death in her past life after going through so many hardships was finally done in her current life!
She finally managed to realize the wish of her past life, wasn’t that comparable to something huge?
Pondering about things, Ye Jian’s mood started to turn better. With the protection of Third Master Hou, Old Granny Ye would have a hard time making a move on her, while Ye Zhixiang would feel even more depressed.
If they are unhappy, then she will be happy.
Ye Jian, who had only started digging into her dinner now, didn’t even realize her meal was already cold. While chewing, her laughter-filled eyes suddenly turned glum,… she had just remembered something.
Her Big Boss mentioned everybody on the streets knew who Hou Zi was, the moment Old Granny Ye heard Hou Zi declare his identity, her attitude immediately made a 180 change, she had even called him ‘Third Master Hou’ with a slightly scared tone.
That’s right, and she had indeed called him ‘Third Master Hou,’ using the street’s honorifics to call Hou Zi!
With that said,… Old Granny Ye is involved with gangsters, then Ye Zhixiang’s whole family was also involved with gangsters.
If not, why do they never return to the village year-round? Even if they did, why did they return sneakily?
Sun Yaozu’s right eye wasn’t blinded in the past. Word of the village was that he had injured it because of business, but since he was wounded because of business, why would they still need to return to the village after his eye was blinded?
After pondering about things deeper, even Ye Jian’s expression had turned icy cold.
When Old Granny Ye had left the village, that had happened not long after Mother had died, they left three days before the soldiers were sent into the village.
From then on, Old Grandpa Ye and her had never returned to the village.
Until she was in her fourth year of primary school (5th Grade), on the day of Chinese New Year’s Eve, she brought her young aunt’s whole family over. It was also that time when she noticed Sun Yaozu’s eye was blinded.
Meanwhile, it was also on the same day they had returned, and she was beaten up by Sun Yaozu.
While Old Granny Ye watched from the sides with cold eyes, her young aunt, Ye Zhixiang, was cursing at her out loud, calling Ye Jian and her mother as the bane of the Ye family! She killed her dad with her bad luck, and was now bringing misfortune to their whole family!
The chopsticks that were previously in her hand had fallen to the floor, not only was Ye Jian’s face ashen, a thick curtain of bloodlust could be seen on it.
Her mother died a hero, not long after she died, Old Granny Ye had left.
A few years later, Sun Yaozu came back and started hitting her to the brink of death, Ye Zhixiang was cursing her and her mother as the illbringers of the whole family…, after connecting the dots between events she had never thought about, everything was now making a clear picture.
