Chapter 1748: Chapter 1749: Offending Lord Ye
All night!
The Huang Family is in turmoil!
In the brightly lit hall of the Huang Family, all the senior members were gathered, each with a grim expression, as if faced with a calamity.
The atmosphere was once stiflingly oppressive!
Sitting in the main seat, the elder of the Huang Family had a face that spoke of authority without anger, yet now it was full of worry and helplessness.
For a long, long time!
The elder of the Huang Family let out a deep sigh, finally breaking the silence: "Half an hour ago, Huang Wei died."
No one spoke, for everyone was already aware of the news.
The elder closed his eyes powerlessly, his aged face full of melancholy: "After years of hard work, all that the Huang Family now possesses is about to be lost."
The faces of the crowd changed upon hearing this.
A middle-aged man stepped forward and said: "Don’t worry too much, sir. Things might not be as bad as we think. Although Ye Xuan is formidable, he may not destroy us completely. After all, it was purely Huang Wei acting foolishly, and it had nothing to do with the Huang Family!"
"No, the Huang Family is finished."
The elder shook his head with a bitter smile: "From the moment Huang Wei called, it was clear that Ye Xuan intended to destroy us completely."
"Destroy completely?!"
Upon hearing these words, everyone in the hall turned pale instantly, scared and flustered.
If Ye Xuan intends to destroy the Huang Family completely, what does that mean?
The Huang Family faces a dead end!!
"No... Impossible?"
A young woman trembled: "Even though we had Huang Wei, now that he’s dead, Ye Xuan, he... he wouldn’t go that far, right?"
"Yes, sir, you’re being too pessimistic. How could this be possible!" another person said: "By reason and emotion, Ye Xuan has no cause to destroy the Huang Family completely!"
"..."
Whether they truly didn’t believe or it was a subconscious comfort, almost everyone didn’t think the situation was that severe.
The elder furrowed his brow and angrily shouted: "Naive, so naive!"
The chaotic scene immediately calmed down.
The elder took a deep breath, calmed himself, and then spoke in a serious tone: "If it was another matter, Ye Xuan might not care about our Huang Family, but today’s affair concerns Lin Tong, and now Lin Tong is still lying in the hospital. How could he be lenient?"
"This..."
Everyone exchanged looks, finally realizing the severity of the issue.
Throughout East Sea, anyone with even a slight understanding of Ye Xuan knows he’s a fervent protector of his wife.
Lin Tong is hospitalized?!
Instantly, the air in the hallway seemed to drop in temperature, freezing cold as if death was closing in!
"Ye Xuan made Huang Wei call me just to prepare our Huang Family psychologically." The elder sighed, exhausted.
Upon hearing, the crowd panicked: "So... our Huang Family is completely finished? Ye Xuan is going to kill us all?"
"All the wealth and connections the Huang Family has are destined to be lost."
The elder shook his head, speaking with utter powerlessness: "But whether Ye Xuan will kill us all, in the end, depends on the Huang Family’s attitude."
The crowd was puzzled.
The elder didn’t explain further, but stood up and sighed: "Call everyone in the Huang Family, let’s go find Ye Xuan and ask for forgiveness, hoping... he gives us a chance to survive."
Everyone was shocked and horrified!
Everything seems like a nightmare!
Who could have thought that the Huang Family, destined for greatness, would fall to the brink of extinction over one person’s mistake, where survival itself became a luxury?
Before the giant, the ants were truly insignificant!!
...
At this moment, it’s three in the morning!
Lin Family’s private hospital.
Under Ye Xuan’s instruction, Leng Qiuge and Liu Ying both took little Yun Duo home first, leaving Chiba Sakurako to accompany Ye Xuan and take care of Lin Tong.
In fact, taking care of Lin Tong, Ye Xuan did it all by himself, and Sakurako had no role to play; she stayed just to serve Ye Xuan.
At present.
Lin Tong still hadn’t awakened.
Although she was exceptionally intelligent and talented, she was ultimately a mere mortal with a common body, suffering from emotional turmoil and internal bleeding, the damage to her vitality was considerable, and it’s a fortune that she managed to survive unharmed.
Ye Xuan naturally didn’t expect her to awaken soon.
Now, Ye Xuan sat by the bedside, gazing at the unconscious and frail beauty lying there, feeling exceptionally heavy-hearted.
In just one night, Lin Tong, who was originally fine, suddenly ended up in such a miserable state, how could one not feel heartache?
All because of Ye Xuan’s distrust, how could Ye Xuan not blame himself for this?
"Brother Ye..."
Sakurako, sensing Ye Xuan’s internal pain, softly said: "This can’t entirely be blamed on you; no matter how powerful you are, you’re still human, with emotions and impulses. Now that the broken mirror is mended, it’s actually a good thing."
Ye Xuan nodded, his smile bittersweet.
Indeed!
This was already the best outcome.
Imagine if Lou Xinyu hadn’t appeared today to resolve the misunderstanding between Ye Xuan and Lin Tong, leaving Ye Xuan gone forever, with Huang Wei and Zhang Xiaoyue continuing to roam freely, while Lin Tong lies alone in the hospital enduring injustice — that would be unbearably bleak.
If she woke and couldn’t see Ye Xuan, even certain he wouldn’t return, how utterly heartbroken would she be?
"Hoo—"
Ye Xuan exhaled heavily, unable to ease the immense burden in his heart.
Sakurako glanced out the window, pursed her lips, and said: "Brother Ye, there are many people kneeling outside the hospital..."
Ye Xuan, indifferent: "Let them kneel."
...
Outside the private hospital, the Huang Family was already surrounded by hundreds.
From the eighty-year-old elder to the mere five, six-year-old children, four generations of the family knelt uniformly at the hospital’s entrance, as if worshiping a deity.
They were very quiet, exceptionally quiet.
This quietness harmonized extremely well with the time.
And it particularly accentuated their sincere intentions!
Inside the hospital, someone freshly out of surgery was wheeled to a room. Their family witnessed the shocking scene outside and was instantly stunned.
"What’s going on? Why... why are so many people kneeling?"
"Is this... people from the Huang Family?!"
"What’s happening? Has the elder of the Huang Family passed?"
"What nonsense are you talking? Didn’t you see the elder of the Huang Family kneeling too?"
"This... what on earth is going on?"
"..."
People capable of affording private hospital care in East Sea generally have some standing, naturally recognizing people from the Huang Family.
The Huang Family mobilizing in such numbers, it was astonishing.
This is the Huang Family!
An elite family in East Sea!!
Some were confused, curious, and went downstairs to ask the elder: "Elder, what’s going on here? Why are you kneeling?"
The elder remained kneeling with his head bowed, his frail body unmoving, sighing deeply: "Huang Wei offended Mr. Ye, deserving death, and the Huang Family cannot escape responsibility!"
"Huang Wei offended Mr. Ye?!"
Upon hearing this, the kind-hearted inquirer was immediately startled, retreating tens of steps, even wishing to disappear, pretending never to have any association with the Huang Family.
Mr. Ye, Ye Xuan!!
Now truly the only ruler of East Sea, a real giant!
