Chapter 184: Chapter 184 Can’t Stand the Stimulation and Goes Crazy_1

Little Asheng said, "Big brother, sister says that everyone has their purpose, don’t be sad, you just need to study hard."

Song Yunuan replied, "That’s right, your main job is to study, don’t think about all those messy things. Later, we’ll go buy meat, grandma said she would make dumplings for you tonight, stuffed full of meat."

Song Mingbo immediately swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Just then, a jeep driving from behind stopped in front of them.

Song Mingbo quickly pulled his sister and younger brother to the right side.

Several people got out of the jeep, including an old man with gray hair, looking to be in his sixties.

He was wearing a washed-out Sun Yat-sen suit, his hair neat and immaculate, with a very serious expression, and his face was tense.

Suddenly, he pointed towards where Song Yunuan and her siblings were standing, "Dig there, you’re sure to find something."

A middle-aged man next to him was supporting the old man’s arm, speaking gently, "Okay, okay, Dad, we’ve finally found the place, so we’re not in a hurry now. Let’s go back to the guest house and I’ll find someone to dig."

The old man was stubborn, "No, dig now."

"But I don’t have any tools."

The old man glared at him, "Don’t you have hands? Dig with your hands!"

While he was speaking, he had already vigorously shaken off his son beside him and quickly walked toward the spot where the three Song siblings stood, reaching them rapidly.

Song Mingbo hurriedly shielded his sister and brother.

Song Yunuan peeked out from behind with curiosity, feeling that the old man seemed a little off mentally.

Little Asheng stared at the old man with wide eyes.

Amusingly, all three Song siblings activated their abilities at the same time.

Song Mingbo instinctively began calculating for the stranger.

The old man was born into a wealthy family, an academic researcher. His most trusted student betrayed him, stealing the research data he had painstakingly gathered, likely still unfound to this day.

Song Yunuan’s and Song Mingbo’s insights were almost the same at the beginning.

But Song Yunuan had a more comprehensive perspective.

The student had stolen the data and taken it away.

Back then, there were no computers or backups, all the data was handwritten.

Even the calculation papers amounted to tens of thousands of sheets.

Then the old man couldn’t withstand the shock and went mad.

He was always searching for the data everywhere.

He had just come back from another city, passing through Nanshan County Town. They planned to visit Old Mr. Ji first and then go back to Beidu from here.

Song Yunuan didn’t know what her brother had seen.

But seeing her brother staring at the old man’s chest, it must be some jade pendant or something.

Meanwhile, the old man, with a benign expression, took a stone out of his pocket, "Here, have some candy, good children. This place is going to be dug up soon, so you better go home and play."

Little Asheng curiously took the stone and asked, "Is this rock candy?"

Although Little Asheng was much better now, he was still a greedy little child.

He was about to put the stone in his mouth.

Song Mingbo quickly intercepted Little Asheng as he tried to put the stone in his mouth.

The old man’s son hurried forward to apologize.

After seeing the last scene play out, Song Yunuan felt she understood. Logically speaking, they wouldn’t have encountered each other without reason.

But because of entanglement, they met so coincidentally.

It was a part hidden in the original storyline.

After all, the main plot revolves around the male and female leads, but in a complete world, there are naturally other subplots.

With nine cities in Beidu, naturally, there are several major families responsible for various fields of work.

The Ye family is one of them.

The old man is named Ye Wenzhi, and currently, his eldest son is the one in charge, with his youngest son, Ye Laosi, accompanying him everywhere in search of data, both to soothe his heart and treat his illness.

A year later, they went to Xiangjiang.

One evening, Ye Wenzhi secretly ran out and encountered Xia Xindong, who had just escaped.

At that moment, Ye Wenzhi seemed to have woken up, and he ran toward the direction of the hotel with Xia Xindong.

Soon, they were caught up by the thugs dispatched by Shangguan Heng.

The old man clung to one of the thugs, buying time for Xia Xindong.

The last scene was in the narrow and gloomy alley, where Ye Wenzhi was beaten to within an inch of his life, and passed away a few days later.

The scene had no ending.

Song Yunuan knew that if it had no direct or indirect connection to her, the plot would not be triggered.

So, what should she do now?

From the scene, Song Yunuan saw that the documents had not been taken away. Because the discovery was timely, all checkpoints were guarded.

He didn’t have a superhuman brain, so he really buried them somewhere.

They say the most dangerous place is the safest.

Those three boxes of documents were right underneath the floor of a side room in the Ye family house.

It had been three years already.

That student had now fled abroad and had been taken in by a research institute; he was quite famous now.

This matter was difficult to handle, as there was already suspicion that Ye Laosi was guarding his own theft, because that student had once declared in the newspaper that he was innocent, wronged, and had been framed.

If the old man were told that the documents had actually been in the Ye family’s side room all along, it would likely cause an uproar.

Besides, her mind was still clear, not muddleheaded.

If she revealed the truth, people would ask how she knew it.

Could she really say she dreamt it?

You can’t always use that as an excuse.

It would cause big problems.

Song Yunuan sighed regretfully and pulled Song Mingbo along, saying, "Let’s go, let’s not disturb the uncles at work."

Song Mingbo felt the same.

It’s better to mind one’s own business.

Thus, the three siblings prepared to leave.

But then the old man called out to them, "Don’t go just yet, come here, I want to test you. If you answer well, I’ll reward you."

He then removed the jade pendant he was wearing around his neck.

The jade was of excellent quality.

It was in the shape of a peace buckle, gleaming green, like a pool of water.

Probably, it was for blessing the old man with safety.

Ye Laosi’s face changed.

His lips moved, as if wanting to say something, but in the end, he swallowed his words back.

The old man could not be agitated; you had to go along with his temperament.

But if he really gave the item away, could it be gotten back?

This was a belonging of the Ye family and was very valuable.

Ye Laosi’s gaze involuntarily fell on the three siblings standing by the roadside – two tall and one short.

He had to admit, they all looked quite good.

They were a bit different from ordinary children.

Song Mingbo said, "I’m sorry, Grandpa, but my sister, brother, and I should go home."

Ye Laosi next to him nodded approvingly, but unexpectedly, Ye Wenzhi refused to go along.

He clung to Song Mingbo and wouldn’t let go, tears flowing down his cheeks as he pleaded, "Play with me for a while, please."

Ye Laosi quickly signaled to others, and then people came over, one grabbing each of Ye Wenzhi’s arms, pulling him toward the car.

The old man struggled fiercely: "Let me go, I want to test them, you damn scoundrel, those are your brother and sister too, as their brother you can’t just care about yourself..."
