A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 731 Tell Him to Leave
Ye Yu-Yan couldn't remember how she managed to leave Lu Tian-He's hospital ward that night.
She felt terribly upset.
And couldn't put her feelings into words.
The chief military instructor wanted her to sound Ye Fan out about joining the army.
But how could Ye Yu-Yan face Ye Fan now?
Those angry words which Ye Fan said seemed to echo in her ears.
"From today onwards, even though we're related by blood, we don't know each other anymore! I'm not an older brother to you, and you're not a younger sister to me either. If we cross paths again, we will be nothing but strangers. Since we're on different paths, there's no point in trying to get along."
Ye Yu-Yan didn't put any thought into it when she first heard these words and treated them as a joke.
She felt that the likes of Ye Fan were only good at talking.
From the looks of it now, it wasn't the desperate cries of a weak indignant man, but the contempt of a truly powerful man.
"I was wrong. I made a huge mistake. I was a snob and underestimated you..." said Ye Yu-Yan in a sorrowful tone with tears almost welling in her eyes.
Ye Yu-Yan never felt this defeated in her life.
Ye Yu-Yan was keenly aware that Ye Fan was so profoundly talented at such a young age that even both the chief and deputy military instructors wanted him to join their ranks.
In the future, Ye Fan would reach heights that were utterly unattainable for her!
After Ye Yu-Yan returned to her room that night, she asked her mother to fill up the discharge paperwork.
Although her arm had yet to recover fully, she could recuperate at home just the same since it was a physical injury.
Furthermore, Ye Yu-Yan had a mission, so she had to hurry home to Yeyang.
The next day.
After finding out about Ye Yu-Yan's discharge, Old Master Ye held a family dinner to help his favorite granddaughter calm her nerves.
Ye Fan wasn't interested at first, but Old Master Ye specially told him to join them. Since it was his grandfather asking, Ye Fan didn't refuse him and simply went over.
He would just treat it as having dinner with his grandfather.
Although Old Master Ye was old, he treated everyone equally and didn't put Ye Fan and his mother in a spot simply because they had fallen from grace.
Instead, Old Master Ye took Ye Xi-Mei and Ye Fan in without hesitation when they were exiled from the Chu family.
Ye Xi-Mei was his biological daughter after all. Even though they once got into a huge argument, now that his daughter was in trouble, how could he sit by and do nothing?
Also, Old Master Ye helped to support them financially often and seemed to feel bad for them.
Both Ye Xi-Mei and Ye Fan would never forget how kind he was to them.
So the person whom Ye Fan respected the most in the Ye family was his grandfather, Ye Guang-Kun!
But right after Ye Fan arrived in the halls of the old residence, Ye Jian sneered, "Ye Fan, what are you doing here? Haven't you done enough damage to Yu-Yan? Are you still resentful? Are you here to gloat? Yes, you're a great fighter. But so what? In my eyes, you are still just a live-in husband. In comparison, Yu-Yan is untouchable and has a promising future. You and Yu-Yan are from two different worlds right from the start!"
Ye Jian spoke coldly to Ye Fan. His words brimmed with contempt for Ye Fan.
"Shut up, you little bastard! I'm not in my grave yet, so you have no place to speak here. We are family, and Fan is your older cousin. Just listen to all this nonsense that you are saying. Hurry up and apologize to Fan," said Old Master Ye furiously as he slammed the table from the main seat.
"Grandpa, stop helping him. All of us got into this trouble thanks to him! I was wondering why he suddenly came back this year after staying away for three years. I finally realized he came home to hide because he caused trouble and offended someone. In the end, he implicated the entire family. Grandpa, Yu-Yan fractured her arm, and Dad broke three of his ribs! Are you still going to defend him? Even his father's family doesn't want this troublemaker, so neither should the Ye family. Or else, he will destroy the family sooner or later!" sad Ye Jian viciously.
Ye Jian had never gotten along with Ye Fan since they were children, and now that their family encountered such a catastrophe because of him, Ye Jian hated Ye Fan to the core.
So he jumped on the opportunity to condemn Ye Fan verbally.
But Old Master Ye didn't buy his words and continued angrily, "What's this nonsense? You are slandering your cousin. I know Fan well. Although he is untalented and unambitious, he knows his boundaries well and never causes trouble!"
"Grandpa, you still refuse to believe me," said Ye Jian as he turned to look at Old Master Ye. "It's fine if you don't believe me, but surely you can trust my father and Uncle Tian, right? They were all present that day, so go ahead and ask them whether Ye Fan was the one who attracted trouble," Ye Jian persisted.
In an instant, everyone in the family looked at Ye Tian and Ye Ya.
"Tian, what happened that day? You haven't given us any details even though you've come back for so many days. Was it related to Fan?" asked their youngest aunt, Ye Xi-Lan, as she looked at Ye Tian quizzically.
"Humph. Who else could it be other than him? The Ye family should never have taken the bastard in. We put a roof over his head, but he was an ingrate. He attracted trouble and stood by to watch when we go beaten up. He watched his uncles get humiliated and watched his cousin almost get beaten to death and did nothing. It is an utter insult to have a nephew like him!" said Ye Tian angrily with a solemn look on his face in a low booming voice.
After tolerating Ye Fan for so long, Ye Tian finally let out all his unhappiness towards Ye Fan.
"Dad, I have tolerated all these years on the account that we are family, but today I'm just going to speak up. Ye Xi-Mei Is my older sister and your eldest daughter, so it makes sense for us to take her in, but the Ye family certainly can't take in this little bastard. He is not a member of the Ye family, so he has no right to attend our family dinner! Tell him to leave."
"That's right, Dad! This boy is nothing but an ingrate! Just tell him to get lost!" chimed Ye Ya.
Even Ye Xi-Lan instantly felt displeased with Ye Fan when she learned what had happened.
"Dad, Ye Fan was genuinely badly brought up. The Ye family shouldn't tolerate someone as disloyal as him!"
