Chapter 350: Countdown to the End - 19 Points Connected

The older generation is always like this. No matter how unfamiliar they were with each other before, when they meet, they always have endless human kindness to show to you, so that you don't feel too awkward at all.

Siyi was naturally very grateful to this aunt, because she had been taking care of her father all these years.

"Aunt, there's really no need for all that trouble. I just came to see my dad, so please don't bother with all this."

"This isn't busy at all, it's what I should do!" Ye Yali looked at Siyi, who was now so mature and composed, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional. She gently patted the back of Siyi's hand and said affectionately, "Siyi, how tall were you when your aunt left City A? This short, right?" She gestured with her hand to indicate that you were waist-length and said with a smile, "In the blink of an eye, you've grown up so much and even have a boyfriend... Your aunt hasn't contacted you much over the years. Since you're here, you should stay a while longer. It'll also be a good opportunity to spend time with your father."

Siyi forced a smile, knowing that her aunt's rambling was just out of enthusiasm, so she didn't say anything more. Just then, Ye Xiongming's voice came from inside, interrupting Ye Yali, "Who's here?"

Although his voice was somewhat weak, his pronunciation was very clear.

Siyi recalled five years ago when her father had just suffered a stroke. It was so difficult for him to even say a word while holding her hand. Time flies, and more than five years have passed. He has recovered so much, but she has never been by his side all these years. In the end, she can't say she is a filial child.

"Big brother, it's Siyi!" Ye Yali didn't notice the sadness in Siyi's eyes. She pulled her hand and walked inside. "This girl, she didn't even tell us she was coming. She just showed up so suddenly. It really startled me!"

Jiang Yan watched as the older woman pulled Siyi inside, and he had no choice but to follow her in.

"Oh right, a friend of mine came along too." Jiang Yanhui was just getting a little annoyed at being left hanging when Ye Yali enthusiastically introduced him, "His name is Jiang Yanhui."

As she spoke, she leaned closer to Ye Xiongming with a smile, completely unaware of the change in Ye Xiongming's expression. She chuckled softly and whispered in his ear, "He's really quite the handsome man! Siyi has grown up too; I think you'll be a grandfather soon!"

Siyi stood awkwardly to the side, subconsciously glancing at Jiang Yanhui beside her. Jiang Yanhui was much calmer than her, only slightly moving his finger to signal her to stand closer to him. Siyi took two steps back, and Jiang Yanhui had already reached out and hooked his fingers around hers. His slightly rough male fingers gently stroked her palm, and that warmth seemed to travel along her ten fingers to the depths of her heart, giving her immense peace.

The ten fingers are connected to the heart; it turns out that it's true!

"Didn't you say you were going out to buy something? You go ahead, I have something I want to say to Siyi." Ye Xiongming's expression was not good, and Ye Yali noticed it too. Considering that the father and daughter hadn't seen each other for so long, she didn't ask any more questions. She just told Siyi to stay a little longer before taking her wallet and leaving.

Once the unsuspecting person left, the remaining three stood there, and the atmosphere immediately became awkward.

Siyi hadn't seen Ye Xiongming for over five years. Seeing that he looked quite well, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, pursed her lips, and was the first to speak: "Dad, I'm sorry I haven't been able to visit you all these years. I'm only coming now. Are you... are you alright?"

"It's okay if you can't come. As long as you have me in your heart, that's enough." Time is always the most magical medicine. It can make people forget many things from the past, and it can also change a person a lot. Ye Xiongming in front of us is the best example. He is no longer the Ye Xiongming of the past. Even though he has a lot of dissatisfaction with Jiang Yanhui standing next to Siyi, he will not immediately break off relations. He even smiled at Siyi and said, "It's good that you're here. Anyway, your aunt's house has rooms. You can stay with your father for a while longer."

He glanced at Jiang Yan Hui, his gaze finally settling on their clasped hands, and gave a strange laugh. "I didn't expect Young Master Yan to come and see this old man. I wonder what your reason is for visiting me?"

Jiang Yan had anticipated that Ye Xiongming wouldn't give her a friendly look, but he smiled without any surprise, his tone still relatively gentle, "Actually, I wanted to say that I have another identity, but I was afraid that Sisi would be unhappy, so I thought I would come here with Sisi as her friend today."

Ye Xiongming glanced at him again before finally saying, "Since you're my friend, could you perhaps give my daughter and me some space? I'd like to have a private chat with my daughter."

He was still quite polite, although his words weren't exactly friendly. But Jiang Yan Hui naturally wouldn't hold it against him; after all, he was Si Yi's father.

"I'll wait for you in the car outside. Call me if anything happens." Before leaving, he leaned down slightly and whispered something in Siyi's ear.

They were completely inseparable. Looking at his daughter's eyes as she gazed at Jiang Yanhui, Ye Xiongming saw a deep dependence and an overwhelming, unyielding affection. His heart sank; he felt as if fate was playing a cruel trick on him.

Is it a tragic fate?

These two are truly destined for tragedy!

Why is God so cruel to him? After all the twists and turns, his daughter still ended up with that man's child. Even if he were to die, how could he face his Xiaoying?

“Dad, I…” Siyi hesitated before speaking, but Ye Xiongming interrupted her with a deep voice.

"Regarding your affair with Jiang Yanhui, although you and your older brother have been tight-lipped, I do know a little bit about it." His tone still carried a hint of resentment. He sighed, frowning as he looked at Siyi. "You haven't come to see me for over five years, but today you suddenly brought him to see me. Siyi, tell me, do you have some plans?"

Siyi thought for a moment before speaking, her voice unusually calm, "Dad, I did come to see you today because of some things, but it has nothing to do with Jiang Yanhui... No, I think it could be said that it has a slight connection to him, but it's not what you're thinking."

Ye Xiongming frowned. "For something else?"

“Yes.” At this moment, Siyi no longer felt awkward. She had thought about these words countless times on the way here, wondering how best to say them. But when she actually faced Ye Xiongming, she realized that it wasn’t so difficult to say. She took a deep breath and finally said, “Dad, I came for my older brother.”

"Zhenghao?" Ye Xiongming's brows furrowed even more as he looked at Siyi with great confusion. "Did something happen to your older brother?"

Siyi's eyes flickered, and she decided not to play games with Ye Xiongming anymore, so she went straight to the point, "He's alright for now. Dad, actually I learned about my older brother's background five years ago. At that time, you only told me that he was the orphan of a policeman who died in the line of duty. But now I know some things and I feel that they are different from what you said back then, so I came to you to ask you for clarification."

Looking at his daughter's serious expression, Ye Xiongming suddenly recalled Jiang Yan's expression just now. For some reason, his heart skipped a beat, and a thin layer of sweat inexplicably seeped out from his back. He subconsciously gripped the handle of the wheelchair, and when he spoke, his voice was still steady, "What did you hear?"

"My brother's background." Siyi pulled up a stool from the side and sat down in front of Ye Xiongming. She looked intently into Ye Xiongming's eyes and slowly said, "Dad, I don't want you to lie to me. So, regarding what I'm about to say, I just need you to give me the most accurate answer. Because you should know very well that if I know, then one day my brother will also know. Besides, some things, even if you refuse to say anything now, will still find out everything."

Ye Xiongming felt even more flustered. "Siyi, what exactly are you trying to say?"

“I met Lin Zhenbiao before I came to the United States.”

These words struck Ye Xiongming like a bolt from the blue. His mind went blank for a moment, his face turned deathly pale, and he remained silent for a minute, seemingly numb, before finally muttering, "...Lin Zhenbiao...and him...what is his relationship with him?...He...he couldn't possibly know...it's impossible..."

The last few people were almost silent, but his lips kept trembling. Siyi couldn't hear him very clearly, but she could tell from the changes in her father's expression that everything was true!

Lin Zhenbiao hadn't lied to her; her older brother really was his...son!

How could Ye Zhenghao possibly be Lin Zhenbiao's son?!

Despite having prepared herself mentally, when the moment actually arrived, she realized she had overestimated her ability to cope. Her heart sank, as if falling into an endless abyss, the broken parts never to be mended.

"Dad...why?" She tried to control her voice, but it still trembled and she was almost sobbing. "...Is everything Lin Zhenbiao said true? When you convicted him back then, did you really conspire with that policeman?"
