Chapter 142: Chapter 142: Is what Ye Junqing said true?_1

Translator: 549690339

“Hmph…” Ye Junqiang gave a cold, mocking laugh.

He tightened his arms around the little mermaid in his embrace and looked at Xia Ye Zhao sympathetically, “What video, you ask? Let me tell you, this girl filmed your parents throwing your youngest sister into the sea to fend for herself sixteen years ago. Xia Ye Zhao, it’s hard not to sneer at your naive belief that your little sister ran away from home by jumping into the sea. How old was she back then? She ran away from home, at such a young age? Not even a pig would believe that, but you do?”

“What did you say?” Xia Ye Zhao’s head was buzzing.

Ye Junqiang hadn’t finished: “Your parents learned about the video and must be terrified of it getting out. That’s why they’re planning a murder to keep the secret! They dared to mess with my woman, I tell you, this matter isn’t over!”

Xia Ye Zhao was stunned by Ye Junqiang’s words, he uttered in disbelief, “This can’t be…”

But in the next second, Xia Ye Zhao, with a grim face, turned to his father and demanded, “Is what Ye Junqiang said true?”

“Brother, that’s not the case. How could Mom and Dad abandon our little sister? She’s our own sister…” Xia Yanyan tried to explain.

However, Xia Ye Zhao released his hold on her arms, stepped back, and asked again with disappointment rather than sternness, “Tell me, is what he said true?”

“No, absolutely not!” Xia Wealth was somewhat afraid of his son.

The Xia family’s rise to prosperity was due not only to their daughter’s superstar status but also to their son’s business acumen.

He was blessed with successful children, all of them accomplished except for the youngest daughter. Not only had she won no glory for the Xia family, but she might also become a stain on it now!

Seeing the doubt in his son’s eyes, Xia Wealth vehemently denied it, “Can you imagine me doing such an inhuman thing? She’s the flesh of your mother’s flesh, carrying my blood in her veins. I could never just throw her into the sea. Think about it… it’s impossible!”

“Then why was she gone when I got home that year? She was only six years old. What did a six-year-old child know about running away from home? And given her poor health at the time…”

Xia Ye Zhao didn’t know how to continue.

These were his family!

He felt a cold shiver running up from his feet…

Even Ye Junqiang felt a touch of sympathy for Xia Ye Zhao who had just learned about the harsh truth. However, he was not going to show mercy, especially since they had made his little mermaid cry.

With a cold chuckle, Ye Junqiang retorted, “Xia Ye Zhao, you wanted her to give a reasonable explanation for today’s events, are you satisfied with the explanation? You questioned the person who saved your sister’s life today with such harsh words, you’re just gonna break your sister’s heart!”

“A lifesaver?”

Like seeing a glimmer of light in the darkness, Xia Ye Zhao asked, “Ye Junqiang, speak clearly. My little sister didn’t die, she was saved, where is she now?”

Ye Junqiang knew that Xiao Yuxi didn’t want to expose her identity, and he did not want her to either, in case these people had ulterior motives.

He told the truth, “Xia Qiongqiong is long dead!”

The one who is still alive now goes by the name Ye Xingguang!

After speaking, Ye Junqiang gave Xia Wealth a dangerous look and warned, “My woman is frail but you have reduced her to this state. Xia Wealth, tell me, how will this matter be settled today? If I don’t get a satisfactory answer, I won’t just ruin your house, I’ll call in a hundred bulldozers and level it to the ground!”
