125: Chapter 124: [The Heart of Parents Under Heaven Is Most Pitiable] 125: Chapter 124: [The Heart of Parents Under Heaven Is Most Pitiable] The Luo family trio, who had been extremely excited, after hearing the report from their bodyguard, plummeted from heaven to hell in an instant, hardly daring to believe their own ears.

Ye Tianchen had caused such a huge disaster this time, and in many people’s eyes, it was an irredeemable catastrophe.

He was basically as good as dead.

One must know that the Qin family is the true first-rate family of Capital City, and Qin Yi was a serving vice-national leader.

To be enraged to death by Ye Tianchen—this matter, putting aside the group of people who would rally around the Qin family and not rest until they were avenged, even the national leadership couldn’t turn a blind eye.

This was simply a matter that could shake the entire nation.

When Gudu Ang personally set out to arrest Ye Tianchen, and Luo Songcheng and his sons heard the news, they could not have been happier.

Celebrating with red wine in the villa’s hall, Gudu Ang was a vice-minister; him personally leading troops to make an arrest was indeed a big deal, and it was absolutely impossible for the capture to fail.

Furthermore, Gudu Ang was once a subordinate of Cang Lang, and his skills were no less than Cang Lang’s—a fact known to many.

This was also the reason the Luo Songcheng trio believed Ye Tianchen couldn’t escape even if he had wings.

However, events had taken an entirely unexpected turn.

Gudu Ang, the vice-minister of public security, despite taking action himself, failed to capture Ye Tianchen and instead allowed Cang Lang to take him away.

Clearly, Cang Lang was Yang Yi’s man; they were prepared to help Ye Tianchen.

This development left Luo Songcheng and his sons stunned.

“Dad, what do we do now?

Ye Tianchen was taken away by Cang Lang.

We can’t contend with Yang Yi!” Luo Guanghui, with no idea of his own, anxiously asked.

Luo Songcheng lay on the sofa, a trace of despair in his eyes.

He had thought Ye Tianchen was a goner, but he hadn’t anticipated such a turn of events.

Now, wanting to have Chen Sheng kill Ye Tianchen was impossible.

Moreover, he had not yet reached the level where he could touch Yang Yi.

“Dad, I think we shouldn’t rush this matter, let’s first spread the news, make Ye Tianchen’s murder at the Qin family widely recognized by the public.

That way, when the authorities handle this matter later, they won’t be able to show favoritism toward Ye Tianchen,” Luo Qi considered and then suggested.

“Qi’er is right.

Ye Tianchen killed Qin Heng and infuriated Qin Yi to death.

He absolutely can’t escape this.

What we need to do is to amplify the impact of this incident, so big that it’s not a decision any one person can make alone.

With public opinion pressure, the higher-ups will have no choice but to execute Ye Tianchen!” Luo Songcheng suddenly said with a gleam in his eye.

“Understood, I’ll get on it right away!” Luo Qi said, smirking.

Meanwhile, as Ye Tianchen and Cang Lang headed to Yang Yi’s office, Ye Tianchen’s father, Ye Hong, had already rushed back home and immediately, taking his wife Luo Yan with him, went to the Ye family’s old residence.

This time, a major crisis had arisen, and the first person Ye Hong thought of was the Old Master Ye Yuanshan.

Faced with such a grave situation, he, the Municipal Party Secretary of City H, was utterly helpless.

Even if his father Ye Yuanshan had retired, there might still be a chance to find a solution through his former comrades who were still in office.

“Da Hong, you must find a way.

We only have this one son; we can’t lose him!”

The love of a parent knows no bounds; whatever the child’s misdeeds, however wrong they may be, even if the whole world turned against him, a parent would always stand by their child.

This is the love of being a parent.

Luo Yan, Ye Tianchen’s mother, started crying in the car.

Coming from a great family herself, she knew full well the magnitude of the disaster her son had caused.

It was likely that no one could save him now.

“Rest assured, I will certainly ask the Old Master to intervene.

No matter what, Tianchen is our son.

I won’t let him die!” Ye Hong said anxiously.

Since Ye Tianchen’s discharge from the military and return to city life, he had matured, no longer causing worry for his parents.

How proud and gratified Ye Hong and Luo Yan had been whenever they spoke of their son.

No one could have expected that Ye Tianchen would cause such a huge disaster this time.

Luo Yan tightly gripped her husband, Ye Hong’s hand.

At this moment, her husband was her pillar of strength.

She was truly worried, truly anxious.

Although their son had been taken away by Cang Lang, after causing such a huge disaster, who could guarantee that Cang Lang wasn’t intending harm to their son?

“No, the Old Master has been retired for a long time now.

Even if there’s still some social networking left, I’m afraid they won’t help to save Tianchen!” Luo Yan said anxiously, tears streaming down her face.

Just the thought of her son being arrested and even executed was too much for her to handle emotionally.

“I think the Old Master will do his best, after all, Tianchen is his grandson.

And this time, the matter is no small thing!” Ye Hong said, though his voice lacked confidence since no one had the assurance that Ye Tianchen would be safe.

The incident was too significant; the trouble was too great.

“Maybe, maybe I should go home for a visit.

Perhaps only they can save Tianchen now…” Luo Yan suddenly came up with a thought.

“Yan’er, when you married me despite everything back then, you had already severed ties with your family.

You and your father symbolically cut off ties with three palm strikes.

I’m afraid they will only ridicule us if we go back now…” Ye Hong glanced at Luo Yan and said.

Luo Yan hesitated for a moment but still shook her head.

Just thinking of her maiden home, the people of the Luo family, she didn’t want to go back and beg them.

However, her son Ye Tianchen had gotten into far too much trouble this time, and Luo Yan was desperate, with no other choice.

Had she not been at her wits’ end, Luo Yan would not have wanted to see those people at the Luo family again.

In those years, to marry Ye Tianchen’s father, Ye Hong, Luo Yan had broken through layers of opposition, firmly rejected the arranged marriage her family planned, and even went as far as to sever ties with her own father by a three-strike palm ceremony to be with Ye Hong, a decision that came at a great cost.

At that time, Luo Yan and Ye Hong were in a free love relationship, and the exceptionally beautiful Luo Yan attracted many marriage proposals from sons of high-ranking officials and nobles.

None could sway her, as she wholeheartedly loved Ye Tianchen’s father, Ye Hong, and eventually married him against all opposition, leaving the Luo family completely behind.

In the decades that followed, she never returned, only making a phone call home for her grandmother’s birthday.

“Let’s forget it; we’ll find a way ourselves.

Tianchen definitely will be alright,” Luo Yan said firmly.

Ye Hong nodded and drove quickly to the old Ye family estate, hoping that the family elder, Ye Yuanshan, could think of a solution and use old connections to mitigate the situation.

As long as his son wasn’t sentenced to death—even if it meant decades in prison—there was still hope for a reunion.

This was the worst-case scenario Ye Hong had prepared for.

When Ye Hong parked the car at the entrance of the old Ye family house, he and his wife Luo Yan hurriedly got out and walked inside.

The two bodyguards guarding the residence stepped aside and welcomed them with smiles, a rare occurrence.

In the past, these two lackeys dared to treat Ye Hong and his wife with disdain, but Ye Hong had never minded it, hoping for harmony in the family.

It seemed that Ye Tianchen’s outburst had indeed had some effect.

Just as Ye Hong pushed open the door to the main hall and saw his father, Ye Yuanshan, his eldest brother, Ye Mubai, and his second brother, Ye Heguo, eating together, he hurried over and anxiously said, “Dad, have you heard about the issue with the Qin family?

We need to find a way to save Tianchen!”

To his surprise, before Ye Yuanshan could speak, Ye Mubai cut him off quite indifferently, “The previous troubles caused by that brat weren’t too serious, but this time, he has caused a disaster of epic proportions.

Even if we sacrificed our entire Ye family, I fear it wouldn’t be enough to save him!”

“Younger brother, I’m not trying to blame you, but we’ve told you to discipline that problem child of yours.

Look at what has happened now—big trouble, right?

And who has to deal with him?” Ye Heguo went beyond the bounds of decency, even wearing a faint cold smile on his face as he spoke.

“Eldest brother, second brother, Tianchen may have been disrespectful to you in the past, but he is still a child.

Can’t you just let it go?

After all, we are family!” Ye Hong said urgently.

“Family?

When has he ever seen me as his uncle?” Ye Mubai spoke in a taunting tone.

“He hasn’t regarded me as his uncle either.

This descendant…”

“The two of you, get out of here now, get out!” Ye Yuanshan cut off his second son, Ye Heguo, and roared.

Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo were both stunned, confused as to why their father was suddenly so protective of their younger brother’s family.

They were somewhat displeased but dared not provoke their father, Ye Yuanshan, and meekly left the main hall of the old Ye estate.

“Hong’er, Xiao Yan, don’t be too anxious.

Sit down and we can talk,” Ye Yuanshan invited Ye Hong and Luo Yan to sit down.

In fact, since Ye Yuanshan had a change of heart towards Ye Tianchen and had a deep conversation with Ye Hong, a tacit understanding had developed between father and son.

Everything seemed normal, but when alone, the two would have heart-to-heart talks.

The reason they did not let Ye Mubai and Ye Heguo know was to prevent their jealousy from causing disharmony and disunity in the family.

“Dad, Tianchen, he…”

“I know.

I’ve inquired through old connections after hearing about the situation, and it indeed is quite severe.

Qin Yi’s death is the most serious issue, but Tianchen is safe for now.

Yang Yi seems willing to help Tianchen!” Ye Yuanshan said.

“Dad, even if Yang Yi is willing to help Tianchen, I’m worried about those biased towards the Qin family.

They might kick him while he’s down, and then Tianchen would…” Ye Hong immediately grasped the critical nature of the issue.
