Chapter 585: No Man Is Content
Ye Ling had been recuperating for quite some time, and he could finally move around and sit up. His bones had not recovered yet, and his injuries still hurt a little. He forced his way to get up.
When there was a first time, there would be a second time. Slowly, he could get on the wheelchair.
Although he despised it.
Shen Qianshu smiled and said, “Master, you look charming even when you are on a wheelchair.”
On the wheelchair, the first thing Ye Ling wanted to do was to go out in the sun. Ye Ling pushed him out for some sunshine, and the sun was really bright. The weather was comfy, and everyone felt lazy. Shen Qianshu accompanied him under the sunlight.
Good times!
Spring had approached. Bright flowers bloomed freely, and vines lingered around in the courtyard.
Zhong Ran passed Ye Ling a mini laptop. “Master, a lot of work has been piling up. Time to clear them.”
“Zhong Ran, you’re so abusive! He just got up, and you’re already giving him work. Can’t you deal with them?” Shen Qianshu exclaimed.
Work was indeed the largest third wheel!
Zhong Ran said, “Miss Shen, you are maligning me! I wish I could help, but I have already done those that I could. These need to be settled by Master personally.”
“One day later is no big deal.”
“It can’t be postponed any longer,” Zhong Ran said. “The Ye Family is exploding. They haven’t received anything from us lately, and we don’t know where they got their information that Master is seriously ill. They are having a really heated argument, and Third Master is having a lot of difficulty trying to calm them down. If Master doesn’t come out and speak up, their argument will just get worse.”
Ye Ling had already switched on his laptop, and they were all AG matters that indeed needed him to personally attend to. He had to hold video conferences as well. If people did not see him, they would never make their decisions easily or follow his orders.
Shen Qianshu moved farther away, and Ye Ling sat at the wheelchair as he began his video conference.
Indeed, things were going crazy on the Ye Family’s side.
Ye Bao said, “Mom, didn’t you say that his illness cannot be treated and that he’s on the verge of dying? Ye Ling personally appeared during the AG meeting today, and he looked normal. The meeting went on for three hours, and he did not even have any issues with his body. Who told you he couldn’t recover? Fake news. That person is bluffing you.”
“Shut up. Don’t sweat the small stuff. What behavior!” The old lady shouted.
Ye Bao quieted down immediately. He did not dare to go against his mother, but deep down, he was really unhappy. All of them were waiting for Ye Ling to die. Who knew that Ye Ling was actually in a good state? It was just too disappointing.
“Mom, what should we do now? All our efforts have gone down the drain.”
“I told you long before. More haste less speed. Even if it was rumored that he wouldn’t wake up again, we should confirm before acting on anything, but you refused to heed my advice.” The old lady expected better from him, but after all, he was her son, and so she still pitied him. “Wait for his return!”
“Mom. Once we start something, we should finish it. Why don’t we…” He gestured to kill.
The old lady squinted. The authorities could not intervene with what they did since they had great powers. If they were to take action while he was abroad, things would definitely be way easier, and people would not associate it with them so easily. “The people of Ghost City must have some men with them abroad. Let them do it, and we will just sit back and watch.”
Honestly speaking, Ye Bao’s words had shot straight into the old lady’s heart. If Ghost City were the ones to take action, what would the success rate be? If she put out a mouse trap but did not get to kill him with one shot, she was afraid that it might cost the entire Ye Family’s peace.
“Let me think about it.”
