Chapter 197: Chapter 175: [Father-Son Relationship Exposed]

"Whimper... whimper..."

Shortly after, just when Ye Fan was about to repair Situ Ruoshui’s consciousness on the spot, the sound of sirens suddenly came from the distance.

This discovery made Ye Fan abandon his previous thought and, together with Ye Wenhao and Chu Ji, turn their attention toward the source of the sound, only to see a stream of police cars, ambulances, and several black sedans, roaring towards the villa.

"It seems that the one surnamed Guan has also arrived."

Soon, Chu Ji spotted a brand-new Mercedes-Benz S600 in the convoy bearing Dong hai’s most prestigious official license plate, causing her brows to slightly raise.

Although she was not part of the officialdom, she was extremely knowledgeable about the Huaxia officialdom structure and was well aware that the owner of the Mercedes-Benz S600 was one of the heavyweights in the Huaxia officialdom, and also the second-in-command ’Flag Bearer’ in the Bai Group, just after Bai Guotao!

If even Chu Ji, someone outside the officialdom, knew all this, what about Ye Wenhao?

Upon hearing Chu Ji’s remark, Ye Wenhao didn’t make a sound, his gaze fixated on the Mercedes-Benz S600, his eyes flickering, uncertain of what he was thinking.

Hmm?

Noticing the change in expressions on Ye Wenhao and Chu Ji, Ye Fan suddenly felt that this matter seemed far from over.

A few minutes later, as Ye Fan and his companions waited, the Mercedes-Benz S600 arrived in front of Villa 16, led by an Audi A6L bearing Dong hai’s Police license plate number 1.

The car stopped, and a bald middle-aged man in a police uniform was the first to step out from the Audi A6L bearing the police plate number 1. He glanced sideways at Ye Wenhao and quickly walked towards the Mercedes-Benz S600.

At the same time, the driver of the Mercedes-Benz S600 hurriedly stepped out, opened the rear door of the car respectfully, and stood aside, waiting together with the bald middle-aged policeman for the person inside to alight.

Soon, a dark leather shoe emerged from the car, and under the watchful gaze of Ye Fan and the others, a slightly portly middle-aged man wearing glasses slowly walked out and immediately directed his gaze toward Ye Wenhao.

In an instant, his gaze met with Ye Wenhao’s in mid-air, sparking an invisible flare.

After a brief face-off, he, accompanied by the police commander and several other heads of departments involved in security, walked towards Ye Fan and his companions, while those other senior police officials, department leaders, policemen, armed police, and medical staff stood by on-site.

"Hello, Governor Ye."

Soon, the portly middle-aged man, who had arrived in the Mercedes-Benz S600, reached Ye Wenhao with his entourage, smiled, and not only greeted Ye Wenhao but also extended his hand.

"Hello, Secretary Guan." Ye Wenhao shook hands with the middle-aged man, surname Guan and given name Yi, nonchalantly.

"I just received a call from Elder Xing of the Yanhuang Organization, and I am aware of what has occurred here," Guan Yi said, holding Ye Wenhao’s hand and speaking apologetically, "Because my work was not done well, Governor Ye was involved. I deeply apologize for this and hope you can understand my position."

"Secretary Guan, you overstate the matter. Fortune and disaster are unpredictable, and some things are beyond our control," Ye Wenhao replied.

"Governor Ye, I hope you weren’t injured?" Guan Yi withdrew his hand subtly and asked with feigned concern.

"Thank you for your concern, Secretary Guan, I was not injured."

Although aware that Guan Yi’s concern was insincere and merely for show, Ye Wenhao, who was well accustomed to the rules of Huaxia officialdom, did not feel uneasy but instead expressed his gratitude. Then, changing the subject, he stated, "Secretary Guan, as the host of tomorrow’s meeting, we can discuss these matters then. For now, it would be best if your team could quickly handle the scene."

"Okay."

Hearing Ye Wenhao’s suggestion, a fleeting displeasure crossed Guan Yi’s eyes, but he did not show it outwardly. Instead, he assertively stated, "I will ensure that the staff below fully cooperates with the Yanhuang Organization’s investigation to find the truth and provide Governor Ye with a reply soon."

"We are staying to cooperate with the police investigation. If needed, just ask," Ye Wenhao added, exhibiting a by-the-book posture.

Upon hearing this, Guan Yi’s narrow eyes slightly narrowed, and he smiled like the Maitreya Buddha, "Thank you very much for your cooperation, Governor Ye."

"Director Luo, Director Wang, Commander Zhang, have someone immediately clean up the scene and transport the injured to the hospital."

While speaking, Guan Yi turned his head and authoritatively instructed the three senior officials responsible for safety, "Also, have someone come to record Governor Ye’s statement."

"Yes!"

The three responded in unison, their attitudes very respectful.

Hmm?

From the beginning of their meeting, Ye Fan had sensed that Guan Yi was no ordinary character, and now, seeing the three senior officials responding so respectfully further confirmed this.

In moments, the three officials issued orders, and waiting police officers, armed police, and security bureau personnel promptly divided the tasks as pre-arranged in the meeting, executing their respective duties systematically and with order.

Soon, led by Qi Qi, eight elders from the Dong hai Gang and Feng Jing, along with those at the door whose limbs had been severed by Ye Fan, were successively carried onto ambulances, while the bodies of Situ Chen and others were carried out and laid by the road under white cloths.

Besides this, several Dong hai Gang members hidden within the villa were also successively detained by policemen and armed police.

Meanwhile, Lv Canghai and two members of the Yanhuang Organization, heads bowed, dejectedly boarded a car under the eyes of the onlookers.

At the same time, a senior police official approached Guan Yi with two subordinates, saluted Guan Yi, and then saluted Ye Wenhao, saying, "Governor Ye, you may begin your statement."

"Alright."

Ye Wenhao nodded slightly, and calmly recounted everything Ye Fan had told him earlier without any alteration.

"I apologize, Governor Ye, but according to the relevant regulations, you are only allowed to recount your direct involvement in the case. Speculation and judgments need not be stated," the senior police official interrupted Ye Wenhao before he could finish speaking, unapologetically.

Ye Wenhao’s brows slightly raised.

"What’s with all the nonsense?"

Seeing this, Guan Yi deliberately stiffened his face to reprimand, "All you need to do is accurately record Governor Ye’s words. Are you suggesting that Governor Ye would fabricate stories?"

"Yes!"

Seeing Guan Yi "firing up," the police bigwig didn’t dare to waste any more words and diligently took notes.

Meanwhile, Ye Wenhao paid no attention to the duet of the other two, continuing to cooperate with the investigation.

"Governor Ye, thank you for your cooperation!"

A moment later, having finished recording, the police bigwig saluted Ye Wenhao, leading the way.

"Secretary Guan, the hospital staff mentioned that this girl is also injured and needs timely treatment," the police bigwig finished saluting and left with his people, while Commander Zhang suddenly said to Guan Yi.

"There’s no need; we’ll handle her medical condition," Ye Fan stepped forward when he saw Commander Zhang pointing at Situ Ruoshui.

Hmm?

As Ye Fan spoke, Commander Zhang frowned slightly and looked at Ye Fan.

However, Guan Yi completely ignored Ye Fan, his face showing trouble as he said, "I’m truly sorry, Governor Ye, according to the relevant regulations, all injured parties involved in a case must be arranged to receive treatment."

"Xiao Fan, just arrange for her to go to the hospital," having heard this, Ye Wenhao pondered and said.

"Alright."

Ye Fan hesitated slightly before agreeing, as apart from mental trauma, Situ Ruoshui had no other injuries; staying in the hospital temporarily wouldn’t be a big issue.

"Furthermore, Governor Ye, as you may know, according to standard procedures, all personnel involved in the case must go to the police station for a statement and cooperate with the police investigation."

As Situ Ruoshui was taken away by the medical staff, Guan Yi made another request, "So, I would ask that both Young Master Ling and Lady Chu please cooperate."

Young Master Ling?!

Everyone present, except the police chief at Guan Yi’s side, Director Luo, including Ye Fan, had their expressions change drastically upon hearing these three words!

Astonished and speechless, Commander Zhang and Director Wang—before arriving, they had been puzzled as to how Ye Wenhao was involved in this matter and had many speculations, but it never crossed their minds that Ye Fan, listed as an important person involved, was actually Ye Wenhao’s son!

Compared to them, the shock in the hearts of Ye Wenhao and Chu Ji was beyond anything they had!

Fearing that Ye Fan wouldn’t be able to accept him as his father, Ye Wenhao had never acknowledged Ye Fan, instead, following the original plan, he incrementally deepened his relationship with Ye Fan, planning to acknowledge him when the time was right.

In such a scenario, aside from secretly intervening in Hanghu to scare the Su Family Patriarch into changing his attitude, he never mentioned to anyone that Ye Fan was his son!

And Chu Ji, in order to assist Ye Wenhao and also worried about exposing the father-son relationship between Ye Wenhao and Ye Fan too soon—which might not be conducive to Ye Fan resolving his inner conflict—remained tight-lipped!

Now, however, Guan Yi confidently stated the relationship between Ye Fan and Ye Wenhao, which inevitably shocked both of them.

Shocked, they instantly realized that Su Hongyuan had leaked the information and nervously looked toward Ye Fan.

Under the light, Ye Fan seemed completely stunned.

His eyes widened, he stared motionlessly at Guan Yi and subconsciously asked, "What...what did you say??"

"Nephew Ye Fan, according to the regulations, you need to go to the police station for a statement, to assist in the investigation," seeing Ye Fan’s utterly shocked expression, Guan Yi immediately understood that Ye Wenhao had not yet acknowledged Ye Fan, yet deliberately did not expose it.

Upon hearing Guan Yi’s words, Ye Fan trembled violently as if electrified, his fists clenched, his breathing rapid, excitedly somewhat incoherent, "No...no! I mean, what do you mean by saying Young Master Ling??"

"Governor Ye, according to the information I received, Ye Fan is your son, or is my source mistaken?" Guan Yi asked Ye Wenhao innocently.

Swish!

As Guan Yi’s words fell, Ye Fan immediately turned his head to look at Ye Wenhao, his heart lifted to his throat, his gaze immensely complex.

"I’m sorry, Xiao Fan."

Meeting Ye Fan’s gaze, Ye Wenhao looked at him with a face full of self-reproach and slowly said, "For fear you wouldn’t accept me as your father, I never dared tell you..."

"You...you really are my father??"

Ye Fan still seemed unable to believe it all, he involuntarily interrupted Ye Wenhao, his gaze fixedly staring at Ye Wenhao, his body shaking uncontrollably.

"Yes."

Ye Wenhao nodded heavily, looking at Ye Fan with great tension.

Noticing Ye Wenhao’s tension, looking at Ye Wenhao whose figure suddenly became somewhat stooped, Guan Yi and others were slightly dazed, while Chu Ji felt deeply moved in her heart.

She knew that this man, who had left legends in the Martial Arts World and had a far-reaching reputation in Huaxia Officialdom, possessed a pride not held by ordinary people!

That pride had enabled him, over the past twenty years, to face any challenge and difficulty, always standing tall, head held high, striding forward!

And at this moment.

He bowed his proud spine!

For his son.
