Chapter 246: You’re Actually Doing This Because of Ye Yi

He had been as arrogant as Ye Hao and was unable to focus on doing one thing. Thus, he ended up taking a longer route to achieve his goals and it was too late to change by the time realization dawned.

“Ah Hao, I hope that you’d be able to train yourself mentally. If you’re rash, you’ll be more likely to make the wrong decisions. I sincerely hope that you wouldn’t make the same mistakes as I did in the past.”

Ye Hao pursed his lips slightly and he could see the hope and worry in his father’s eyes.

However, he didn’t like people putting pressure on him, nor did he like other’s meddling into his business.

“Dad, I understand. Please take good care of yourself. Don’t worry so much about work.”

“I don’t want to worry either,” Ye Snr. suddenly sighed and worry flashed past his wizened face.

He had three sons and Ye Hao hadn’t grown up by his side, neither had he taken care of this son, so this son had grown up without paternal love. As for his other two sons, he was couldn’t do anything about them either. Ye Yi had failed to live up to his expectations and not only did he fail to meet his standards despite all the effort he spent grooming Ye Yi, he had even become a criminal who smuggled guns and drugs and took heroin. As for Ye Zhe, he was always focused on enjoying life and for all his intelligence, he just wasn’t ambitious enough.

He was a failure as a father.

Ye Hao could see the guilt and pain in his father’s eyes and although he couldn’t tell what his father was feeling guilty about, it made him feel a little uncomfortable.

After all, this man was his father and his father had bequeathed his life work to him.

Ye Hao held his father’s hand and said, “I’ll change my ways. Please live happily with mum and don’t worry too much. You’ve worked so hard your entire life, so you shouldn’t tire yourself out anymore.”

Then, he smiled comfortingly at his father.

Ye Snr. also smiled but his smile was a little stiff.

He took another sip of tea, then he poured some for Ye Hao as well.

“I would like to ask a favor of you,” Ye Snr. looked at his son after he put down his cup.

Ye Hao said, “Sure, please let me know what it is.”

Ye Snr. sighed, then he said after a while, “The first matter is regarding your brother, Ye Yi. I’ve already sent him to a rehabilitation center overseas to help him fight his drug addiction. He had spent three years taking drugs and I’m not sure whether he would lapse into his old habits after he is released from the rehabilitation center. I haven’t got much time left in this world and I don’t know when my time is up but I know that there are some conflicts between Ye Yi and you and there is no brotherly love between the two of you. However, he is still your blood relative and he’s your young brother. After I’m gone, the Ye family will be in your hands. I don’t wish to see you guys fighting amongst yourselves and hurting each other and more importantly, I don’t want to see your brother Ye Yi sink into addiction again and die an unnatural death.”

Ye Snr.’s eyes became slightly red-rimmed. When he was younger, he had placed all his focus on his business but now, he was most concerned about his children.

He knew that he was old and if he had a relapse, it would likely mean death.

Ye Hao’s brows were tightly knitted and his amber eyes suddenly darkened. He hadn’t expected his dad to look at him because of Ye Yi.

“Dad, he’s just facing the consequences of his actions so there’s no one he could blame but himself,” Ye Hao said coldly.

He truly didn’t feel anything toward his brother since they were not brothers from the same mother and Ye Yi had never thought of him as his brother either. Otherwise, how could he have done such a thing to him five years ago?

Ye Hao suddenly pursed his lips tightly at the thought of the past and his eyes turned icy.

“Ye Hao…” Ye Snr. raised his brows.

He felt his heart clench when he saw how cold his son was.

Ye Hao didn’t budge from his initial stance. He stood up and his voice suddenly grew cold, “Dad, if you’re looking at me because of Ye Yi, then I don’t think we’ve anything to discuss. I can agree to not punish him for the things he has done to me in the past and the present, including some of the things Shen Lu has done but you shouldn’t ask me to help him. Whether he lives or dies, or lives in honor or disgrace, all this has nothing to do with me.”
