Chapter 2014: Chapter 1974: Another Plea
Ye Qiu just sat there, appearing completely unafraid.
While this old chief occasionally chatted with Young Master Zhou and the others, his gaze was directed at this young man.
Besides feeling that the young man somewhat resembled the old man from the Ye Family, he thought this young man definitely didn’t seem ordinary. If it were a normal young person, seeing him would incite fear, but surprisingly, this person didn’t seem to care.
Soon, the waitress brought breakfast, which was actually a nutritious meal ordered by the health doctor based on the old chief’s condition, mainly composed of vegetarian dishes.
To Ye Qiu’s surprise, it turned out to be millet porridge, which didn’t seem appetizing at all.
After all, being young should mean a preference for meat, and it really didn’t look very tasty.
However, breakfast is mainly about being rich and hearty.
Here, there’s millet porridge, black rice, and boiled eggs, and if ordinary people knew these leaders ate such food, they probably wouldn’t believe it.
But these are specially supplied and completely different from what’s available in the market outside.
As Ye Qiu ate, and nearly finished, he didn’t say anything to the old chief.
He knew that among all the influential people he’s met, this one might be the most significant.
Though retired for a long time, his influence remained.
Ye Qiu thought, knowing it’d be like this, he’d rather have had morning tea with Lin Xiang and the others at the teahouse.
Upon leaving, Cao Long and Young Master Zhou followed him out.
Outside the sanatorium, Cao Long said, "Doctor Ye, the old chief seems to value you greatly."
"He values my medical skills," Ye Qiu replied directly.
Everyone fears death.
Especially the elderly.
Cao Long and Young Master Zhou didn’t expect Ye Qiu to think this way.
Driving back to the villa and parking, he saw an elderly man and a middle-aged woman.
This elderly man, Ye Qiu recognized, was none other than Ye Lao from the Ye Family.
As for the middle-aged woman, she looked extremely fatigued.
Although he didn’t know her and never met her before, judging by appearance, she was definitely related to Ye Feng.
This middle-aged woman should be Ye Feng’s biological mother.
Ye Qiu acted as if he didn’t see the two of them, got out of the car, and prepared to head inside the villa.
Over the past few days of investigation, Ye Lao had figured out clearly that this young man was indeed the Ye Family’s illegitimate child.
However, Ye Lao hadn’t expected Ye Feng to have already sent people to assassinate this young man multiple times, the most serious of which almost cost him his life in a car accident.
He assumed that the young man knew his identity long ago but just didn’t want to connect with the Ye Family.
Ye Feng’s biological mother similarly hadn’t expected that this was actually her husband’s mistress’s biological son, and that her son had sent people to assassinate him.
The middle-aged woman couldn’t understand why her son wanted to assassinate Ye Qiu.
The person had always been over in Jinling.
Now suddenly her son was gravely ill, making it even harder to seek this man’s help.
A few days ago, when Ye Qiu was attacked by the hitmen sent by Ye Feng at a hot spring resort, she had found out. She was here to apologize to Ye Qiu and pleaded for treatment for her son.
Regarding her husband having women and illegitimate children outside, she wasn’t interested at all. All she hoped was for her son to be treated.
"Won’t you talk for a bit?" Ye Lao asked as Ye Qiu walked away.
"Talk about what?"
"Treat your brother."
Brother?
Ye Qiu sneered inwardly.
Ye Qiu suspected that the Ye Family had already discovered his previous identity and relationship with them, but in Ye Qiu’s eyes, it only made him more disgusted.
"Please," the middle-aged woman said.
Logically, she should also be considered his mother.
Yet, realistically, it was merely in name.
Seeing her demeanor, Ye Qiu said, "I don’t know what you’re talking about, and like your Ye Family’s eldest young master, his cancer cells have probably spread all over his body. Even a Divine Doctor couldn’t save him, so why come to me?"
"I want to discuss something else with you," Ye Lao said.
Ye Feng’s life and death was no longer Ye Lao’s concern.
Actually, Ye Feng was very smart, and Ye Lao spent much effort to cultivate him, but to send people to kill family, his half-brother with the same father? Ye Feng seemed narrow-minded to Ye Lao.
After all, it’s not the ancient times where people fought for the throne, there was no need to target Ye Qiu.
In the past, Ye Qiu in Jinling was just an ordinary person and posed absolutely no threat to Ye Feng.
If Ye Feng was indeed dying, Ye Lao felt he didn’t want to focus on such a cruel person.
However, the changes in Ye Qiu after the car accident surprised Ye Lao greatly.
He found Ye Qiu to be different from ordinary people.
Not just his medical skills, but he bought a villa with his own efforts, and had many industries overseas through his ability.
Moreover, Ye Lao knew Ye Qiu had no contact with his son over all these years.
Even his son might not know Ye Qiu’s existence.
"Discuss what? There’s nothing to talk about; I’m preparing to return to Jinling," Ye Qiu said coldly.
He seemed to have no interest at all in staying in this place.
Ye Lao and the middle-aged woman exchanged a glance, both were very disappointed.
Ye Lao was disappointed to find out he had such an outstanding grandson, yet he and his son had been clueless for nearly twenty years.
The middle-aged woman was disappointed that the young man clearly had no intention to treat her son.
Yet, regarding her son’s situation, she had long been mentally prepared.
Death was certain.
Only white-haired sending off the black-haired, and having the last bit of hope and happiness in this world cruelly stripped away, leaving her bleeding in pain.
Ye Qiu entered the villa, where Cao Ling and the other three women were still inside.
The four hadn’t gotten up for breakfast, but knowing Ye Lao and the two had arrived, they stayed inside all along.
"Back so quickly? Weren’t you having breakfast with the old chief?"
"Those are nutritious meals, very hard to eat, just plain millet porridge. I wouldn’t have gone if I’d known, rather taken you guys to the teahouse for breakfast."
Cao Ling was momentarily taken aback.
However, soon, she realized those retired old leaders must not eat much, not because they don’t want to, but because their bodies might not handle it.
Therefore, the sanatorium’s health doctors definitely tailored different nutritional meals for them.
