Chapter 701: Chapter 564: Hot Item (Extra for Silver Alliance Leader Arain) (Part 5)

Ye Jian incredulously began, “How is that possible, could the higher-ups have abandoned us?”

“It’s not that the higher-ups have abandoned us, but rather, Wang Hai, who was originally in charge of Area Z, isn’t participating in the operation this time; the person in charge has been replaced,” Ye Quan said coldly.

Ye Tian couldn’t believe it at all, finding the whole thing absurd.

“I find it absurd too, but this is reality. I’ll just tell you who it is, the person who took over is Su Mo. Isn’t that ridiculous? Such an important person, and you guys easily let him slip through your fingers and even managed to offend him!” Ye Quan rebuked directly.

The people at the scene were all astounded, including Ye Wuheng and others who didn’t know what to say.

They couldn’t believe that Su Mo had taken over; it was simply inconceivable.

At this moment, an elder of the Ye Family spoke up, “Clan Leader, don’t be angry anymore; getting angry isn’t going to help. Right now, the urgent matter is to think of a solution. I heard that Su Mo is on very good terms with your granddaughter, Ye Xue. Didn’t you send for Ye Xue to come back a while ago?”

Ye Tian’s expression darkened slightly upon hearing this, but he did not speak.

“What’s the situation, when is Ye Xue coming back?” Ye Quan asked coldly.

Ye Jian, trying to summon his courage said, “Father, we couldn’t persuade Ye Xue.”

“A small matter like this and you can’t handle it? What are you good for?” Ye Quan rebuked angrily.

At that moment, Ye Wei couldn’t help but stand up and say, “Grandfather, we really did say all we could, but Ye Xue wouldn’t listen at all. Big brother even lowered his head to explain to her, but she was completely indifferent, she didn’t consider us family at all.”

“Grandfather, we really did our best, but Ye Xue really isn’t easy to persuade,” Ye Wuheng said helplessly.

“Yes indeed, Ye Xue really didn’t give us any face at all.”

…

Many of the younger generation present began to speak up.

Ye Jian, also mustering his courage, said to Ye Quan, “Father, this knot in our hearts isn’t something that can be untangled in just a day or two.”

“Hmph, look at what you’ve done, both of the most important people have been driven away by you!” Ye Quan was very angry as he struck the floor with his cane in rebuke.

Everyone fell silent, and all bowed their heads.

Then, an elder uncle tried to smooth things over with a smile, “Don’t be angry anymore. Now that a problem has come up, we still need to find a way to solve it. I think ‘the one who tied the bell should be the one to untie it’.”

“Uncle, what do you mean by that?” Ye Tian suddenly raised his head to look at the elder in front of him.

“I mean no offense, but isn’t Ye Xue your daughter? You, as a father, drove her away, so naturally, you’re the only one who can bring her back,” the elder said with a smile.

“I can’t do that,” Ye Tian immediately denied.

“You have to do it, as the new leader of the Ye Family, don’t you even have this bit of responsibility? No wonder the Ye Family has constantly been having problems under your leadership,” Ye Quan stated decisively.

Ye Tian felt utterly helpless inside. These old fellows really had no shame.

Initially, it was they who were skeptical of Ye Xue, they were the ones who secretly pressured, and they were the ones who made him deprive her of rights.

The entire matter of Ye Xue being driven away was orchestrated by his father from beginning to end, and now they acted as if he had nothing to do with it.

Previously, when he hadn’t acted according to their wishes three times over, trying to gloss over the matter in the middle, wasn’t it his father who relentlessly pursued it?

It was merely because they felt Ye Xue’s mother was of humble origin and held no value, not deserving to enter the gates of the Ye Family, that they troubled Ye Xue in every possible way.

Furthermore, since Cheng Xue had been continuously trying to obtain a formal status for her mother, he, after weighing the options multiple times, cruelly took this opportunity to fulfill Cheng Xue’s wish and thus sent her away from the family, this place of conflict.

Now they actually wanted him to lower his head and beg Ye Xue to come back? He’d agree over his dead body.

But the problem was, he still couldn’t refuse now, as his father’s words were very clear.

In the end, Ye Tian responded with a compromise,

“I understand, I will do my best, but I can’t guarantee whether she will come back or not. However, even if she doesn’t come back, I’ll do my best to have her speak to Su Mo on our behalf.”

Seeing Ye Tian relenting, Ye Quan’s expression gradually eased, and smiles appeared on the faces of the elders behind him, their objective achieved.

“Meeting adjourned!”

————————————————

Inside the house, Su Mo was drowsily sleeping.

Loud noises continuously entered Su Mo’s ears.

Su Mo tossed and turned left and right but it was still very noisy, so he finally opened his eyes and sat up.

He wore a helpless expression, “What the hell, why is it so noisy outside?”

Su Mo got out of bed, opened the bedroom door, and walked to the living room.

As a result, he saw Li Fang, Zou Wei, and Lin Yixuan standing by the door like thieves.

“What are you guys doing?”

“Su Mo, there’s trouble, a bunch of people outside are looking for you.”

Li Fang hurriedly said.

“Who?”

“Too many, mostly strangers.”

“If you don’t know them, just send them away.”

Su Mo asked, puzzled.

Li Fang and the others shook their heads like wave drums.

“Can’t do.”

“Why not?”

“Why don’t you take a look for yourself?”

Lin Yixuan swallowed and replied, having never seen such an assembly in his life.

Su Mo walked to the door with confusion and took a look through the electronic peephole, instantly dumbfounded.

Outside were NCOs in various military uniforms from the First Legion, the Second Legion, the Third Legion, and even those from the GT department.

Each of them was holding a gift.

“Don’t say I’m here.”

Su Mo frowned and, saying this, he dashed to Lin Yixuan’s room.

“Hold on, Su Mo, where are you going?”

“I need to lay low for a while, I’ll leave this to you guys.”

Su Mo rushed into Lin Yixuan’s room, opened the window, and swiftly, with a quick flip, jumped down silently.

He then took off running, realizing he couldn’t think about returning to his dorm for a while.

At that moment, Su Mo realized the seriousness of the situation, he had greatly underestimated his role as team leader and the recent exploration mission.

Soon, Su Mo arrived at the doorstep of Cheng Xue’s house in the Upper City District.

As he was about to knock on the door, he suddenly looked at his clothes and felt a bit awkward.

Shucks, he had run too quickly earlier, grabbing only his mobile phone and not even changing out of his pajamas.

It didn’t seem like a good impression, but he decided to go for it.

So, Su Mo knocked on the door.

The door soon opened.

Cheng Xue stared at Su Mo in his pajamas, equally surprised.

“Su Mo? What’s this about?”

“Ahem, some people are blocking my dorm, could I take refuge here for a while?”

Su Mo said with a wry smile.

Cheng Xue, with her fair face showing a hint of a smile, said after hearing this.

“The ones bringing gifts?”

“Yes, and they’re not just anyone.”

Su Mo said, his head aching.

“Come in first. Have you eaten yet?”

“No.”

“Then wait a moment, I’ll make you some breakfast.”

Cheng Xue said gently.

“Okay.”

Su Mo sat down at the dining table.

Soon, Cheng Xue brought Su Mo a plate of bread slices, a jar of blueberry jam, and a large cup of milk.

“Thank you, I won’t hold back.”

Su Mo started to eat.

Cheng Xue sat beside him, resting her cheek on her right hand, quietly watching Su Mo eat.
