Chapter 489: Hug in a ball!

Your mother was killed!

If these words were spoken by an ordinary father, Ye Mingzhu would not be surprised.

But - who is her father?

He was an iron-blooded general who shocked both China and the world. He was a lieutenant general who was unrivaled in Yanjing and China. He was a senior general with a heavy army. How could he say these words so calmly?

How could he tell himself now?

Why?

Since you love my mother and your wife so much, why have you refused to take revenge after so many years?

Don't you dare?

Still not willing?

There was a burning rage in Ye Mingzhu's chest. He was so angry that his whole body was shaking.

Angry for my mother's abnormal death. Angry for my father's inaction.

Snap!

Ye Mingzhu overturned the bowls and chopsticks in front of the table. These exquisite and expensive bowls and chopsticks fell to the ground with a clatter. Everyone who was chatting in the living room was shocked, but the iron-blooded general sitting opposite was as calm as ever.

No abnormalities appeared.

"Give me a reason." Ye Mingzhu said through gritted teeth. "Why?"

Why not avenge your mother?

Why are you only willing to tell me now when you take the initiative to ask?

How did you become such an iron-blooded general?

What do you do as a husband and father?

"Your mother volunteered."

Speaking these words that had been held in his heart for almost thirty years, the iron-blooded general Ye Long seemed to have aged ten years in an instant. This old general who had made great contributions to the country was really too old. He was so old that he was dying. He was so old that he had lost his spirit.

Your mother volunteered!

And she doesn't allow revenge!

At least you won’t allow yourself to take revenge!

Ye Mingzhu was stunned.

Cried too.

My mother was killed, but she refused to take revenge. She refused to take revenge from my father who was capable of revenge.

Why?

What on earth is the mother thinking?

Ye Mingzhu bit his lips to draw blood, and the salty taste penetrated his taste buds, constantly stirring up the anger in Ye Mingzhu's heart.

"So you don't want to retaliate?" Ye Mingzhu asked.

Ye Long fell silent.

When faced with deafening questions from powerful generals, the old general was able to fight back confidently. But when faced with his daughter's heart-wrenching questions, the old general fell silent.

"People say that you are the most ferocious general in China's peaceful times. People respect you as the leader of the hawks. People believe that when war breaks out, you will be the first brave general to lead troops into battle. But - but why is my mother being

Killed. But you can remain indifferent?"

"Ye Long. What makes you so cowardly?" Ye Mingzhu asked in a cold voice.

"I'm sorry." A deep look of guilt appeared on Ye Long's old face.

This is the apology he owes.

Thirty years.

He never avenged his wife and the mother of his daughter. For a man who is a husband and a father, this is really something that he is ashamed to mention.

"I'm sorry?" Ye Mingzhu asked word by word. "Is it Mai Zhicheng."

"Yes." Ye Long nodded.

"Why?" Ye Mingzhu asked.

"Because -" Ye Long said softly. "Because your mother killed the father he believed to be."

"The Chen Yifei you are talking about?" Ye Mingzhu asked with a frown. "Isn't he my mother's brother?"

"Yeah. But your mother had enough reasons to kill him." Ye Long explained. "So Mai Zhicheng wants to take revenge. Take revenge on everyone."

"He doesn't have this chance anymore." Ye Mingzhu said coldly.

"Your mother said she owed this to Mai Zhicheng." Ye Long said softly. "So I must not take revenge."

"You can't. I can." Ye Mingzhu gritted his teeth and said. "Mother never said that I can't take revenge, right?"

"He has evolved into a terrifying beast." Ye Long said solemnly. "It is already very difficult to defeat."

"What does it matter?" Ye Mingzhu pursed her lips and said. "No one who the Poisonous Widow wants to defeat can live in peace and sound."

Ye Long narrowed his eyes slightly and remained silent for a long time. But when he spoke, he said something that made Ye Mingzhu burst into tears: "You and your mother are so similar."

"This is the first time you praise me."

Ye Mingzhu stood up and left Ye's house in large strides.

In the study room.

Ye Zhengying stood beside her old father extremely humbly. After being silent for a long time, she said, "You finally told my sister."

"It's time for him to know." Ye Long sighed softly. "I've kept it secret from her for thirty years. It's time to tell her."

"The reason why you have not let her go home for the past thirty years is because you are worried that she will know about this. Because you know her character. Once you know, you will definitely fight to the death with Mai Zhicheng." Ye Zhengying said softly.

"If it were earlier, she would definitely be like you said. But now, the overall situation has been decided. I believe she is capable of handling this matter." Ye Long said slowly.

"Because of Chuhe?" Ye Zhengying asked curiously.

"Because of many things." Ye Long said slowly. "Of course, he must be the most important factor."

Ye Zhengying said helplessly: "Why do every elder think so highly of him?"

"Because he is Chu Lin's son." Ye Long said matter-of-factly. "And Chu Lin is your Uncle Lin's only disciple."

"This logic sounds a bit rigid. But I have to say that Uncle Lin was so powerful that his disciples were also invincible among their peers." Ye Zhengying said with great reverence.

Mentioning that old comrade, Ye Long's old face finally gained a bit of luster. As if thinking of those turbulent years in his youth, a dense luster appeared in Ye Long's gradually dimming eyes. He said: "

It’s been several years since I last saw that old guy. Zhengying. Go back to Yanda and inform him that I’ll treat him to a drink.”

"OK."

…

Chu He never expected that Ye Mingzhu, who was in Yanjing, would call on the same day and arrive in Baicheng the next day. And he would stand directly at the door of Xiaoshan Villa.

When Chu He dressed up and went out to greet her, this cruel and poisonous widow looked haggard, as if she had just cried.

"What's wrong?"

The considerate Chu He took off his coat and put it on the poisonous widow who was only wearing a thin piece of clothing.

The woman's palms were freezing cold. Even her round shoulders were trembling slightly. Her shell-like teeth were clenched tightly, as if to resist the indelible cold.

"You are right." The woman did not refuse Chu He's coat and gritted her teeth. "My mother was killed by Mai Zhicheng."

"Why did you suddenly believe it again?" Chu He asked unexpectedly.

According to Ye Mingzhu's previous attitude, she didn't seem to believe in herself. But just one day later, Ye Mingzhu changed his attitude. This surprised Chu He.

"Father admitted it himself." Ye Mingzhu gritted his teeth.

When Chu He heard this, he fell silent.

He sent Ye Mingzhu into the living room, and then ordered the kitchen to cook a bowl of soup to keep her warm. It wasn't until this woman who hadn't eaten all day and night drank the black-bone chicken soup handed to her by Chu He that she gradually regained some of her energy.

, asked in a low voice: "How do you know about this?"

His father didn't even tell him. How did Chu He know about it?

Chuhe knew Ye Mingzhu's intention and said helplessly: "Mai Zhicheng came to Baicheng a few days ago. He met my aunt and then me. He told me personally."

"What else did he say to you?" Ye Mingzhu asked.

"He said that he and I are destined enemies." Chu He said with a bitter smile.

"What else?" Ye Mingzhu asked.

"He also said that he would kill everyone related to his father." Chu He said distressedly. "That's why I called you to tell you all this."

"This bastard is really arrogant." Ye Mingzhu gritted his teeth and said, "Sooner or later, I will make him pay the price."

"I think what you should be concerned about now is not Mai Zhicheng, but Huangfu Qi." Chu He kindly reminded.

"Huangfu Qi has now gotten together with Shang Suxin. He has no time to talk to me." Ye Mingzhu said.

"Really?" Chu He asked unexpectedly. "When did the two of them get together?"

"Because we have a common enemy." Ye Mingzhu said.

Chu He nodded to express understanding.

Indeed, when several people share the same enemy, they can easily become allies.

"I advise you to go back to Baicheng now and sort out everything on your hands. No matter what, I believe that in the near future, there will be a war that changes the pattern of China. And I have a hunch that this war will not be too far away." Chu

He said softly.
