The City’s Strongest Son-in-law

Chapter 618: Chapter 619: Two Choices

Ye Qingcheng felt her goal was achieved, but the words from Ye Lianchen now made Ye Qingcheng realize that Ye Lianchen was still a major threat.

”Sister never said she wanted to get married.” Ye Qingcheng said.

”Sister, you are the beloved princess of the Ye Family. If you never marry in this lifetime, others will surely mock you when they find out. Aren’t you afraid of people talking behind your back?” Ye Lianchen laughed.

Ye Qingcheng quickly adjusted her breathing. She felt that the Ye Lianchen today was very different from the past. She even suspected this person was not Ye Lianchen, almost as if he was not the Ye Lianchen she knew.

What exactly made him change his mind!

”These words, could it be that Yue Qingshan told you to say them?” Ye Qingcheng asked.

”Yue Qingshan, just a mere woman, doesn’t have the right to teach me anything. Even though I am particularly fond of her, she is merely my favorite plaything.” Ye Lianchen said calmly.

If it wasn’t Yue Qingshan, could there be another reason? Ye Qingcheng couldn’t imagine, but if she ever found out what had caused Ye Lianchen’s change, she would make the person responsible disappear without a trace.

”Sister, leave dealing with Su Changfeng to me. I’m just notifying you now, and later I’ll tell our father. I believe Dad will definitely be willing to let me take over this matter. Consider it a bit of practice for me, while you take this time to rest for a few days. Just look at yourself now, you’re so worn out, and I, as your younger brother, am really heartbroken for you.” Ye Lianchen said with concern.

Ye Qingcheng laughed, but it was a particularly insincere and forced laugh, saying: ”You better think it through, dealing with Su Changfeng is not as easy as you think, and I’m afraid you won’t endure the pain it involves.”

Ye Lianchen stood up, walked to Ye Qingcheng, placed his hand on her shoulder to massage her, and said, ”Sister, this exhaustion should now be taken over by me. You’ve borne it for so long, how could I bear to let you keep enduring it.”

Ye Qingcheng’s expression was extremely gloomy. After Ye Lianchen left the room, she immediately clenched her fists, and her expression even turned vicious.

Before long, Ye Qingcheng’s father called her. He told her that all matters in Jiang City were now being handed over to Ye Lianchen, which made Ye Qingcheng even angrier.

Even though her father had told her many times that, in his view, Ye Qingcheng and her brother were on equal footing, Ye Qingcheng knew they were never on the same level. As a boy, Ye Lianchen was obviously more valued by the Ye family, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to take over the tasks she had planned for so long in Jiang City with just a word!

”Ye Lianchen, you originally had the chance to continue enjoying life, but now your only end is a dead end. Don’t blame me, you brought this on yourself.” Ye Qingcheng said venomously.

She let Ye Lianchen become a playboy, maximizing the possibility of avoiding confrontation between them. But now, since Ye Lianchen wanted to seize her position as the Ye Family Master, she must take extraordinary measures.

After so much planning, Ye Qingcheng could no longer willingly hand over the Ye Family inheritance. Ye Qingcheng would stop at nothing to get what she wanted.

In his room, Ye Lianchen no longer had his former nonchalant smile. When he was awakened by Yue Qingshan’s words, he knew what he needed to do now.

Although women were important, inheriting the Ye Family was the most important.

Once he became the Ye Family Master, he would have more girls than he had now.

”Sister, don’t think of taking it from me. After all, you are just a woman, and you should know more clearly that the Ye Family would never let you, a woman, take charge!” Ye Lianchen murmured.

Just then, the room door was pushed open, and Tian Chen entered.

Ye Lianchen didn’t look Tian Chen in the eye and straightforwardly said, ”I also understand that you favor my sister, but this time, there are two choices you can make.”

Ye Lianchen paused, and Tian Chen didn’t respond, just quietly listened.

”First choice, you continue to help my sister, but don’t expect to retire in the Ye Family once I become the master.”

”Second choice, work for me, and I will ensure your safety when you are old.”

Tian Chen bowed his head without directly answering. In his heart, he leaned more towards Ye Qingcheng because everyone in the Ye Family knew that Ye Qingcheng was more competent than Ye Lianchen.

However, Tian Chen also knew very well that as long as Ye Lianchen aimed to be the Ye Family Master, he had an inherent advantage that Ye Qingcheng could not match.

Ye Qingcheng needed to put in 100 times the effort to become the Ye Family Master, but Ye Lianchen only needed to put in a little effort.

From this perspective, Ye Lianchen had a winning rate that Ye Qingcheng couldn’t compare.

”I can’t tell if you’re joking.” Tian Chen asked.

Ye Lianchen was not surprised by Tian Chen’s question. Perhaps most people in the Ye Family would think the same, but at this moment, he was very clear about what the position of the Family Master meant.

Moreover, Ye Qingcheng had been kind to him for so long, but it wasn’t true kindness. It was just because she didn’t want to see Ye Lianchen block her from becoming the master, which left Ye Lianchen with a lot of resentment towards Ye Qingcheng. Ye Lianchen certainly wouldn’t let Ye Qingcheng get her way.

”Promises might seem meaningless to you, as you would never believe them no matter what I say. Therefore, there isn’t much time to consider; the choices are these two. It’s up to you to decide whether you believe me or my sister.” Ye Lianchen said with a smile.

Someone like Tian Chen, who had accumulated countless enmities throughout his life, when his power declined with age, would need a strong backer to ensure a stable life.

The Ye Family could provide future stability, without question. Leaving the Ye Family, Tian Chen couldn’t imagine how many people would be after his life. Perhaps in the end, there wouldn’t even be anyone to collect his remains, which was certainly not what Tian Chen wanted.

It was like a gamble, a bet to decide his life in old age.

”I am optimistic about Ye Qingcheng, but you indeed have a bigger advantage over Ye Qingcheng. What do you want me to do for you?” Tian Chen asked.

Hearing Tian Chen’s words, Ye Lianchen smiled with satisfaction, as if a beggar suddenly got everything he wanted, and the only difference was, the beggar actually owned nothing. He was merely retrieving what belonged to him.
