Super Soldier

Chapter 135 The Death of Ye Tianming

Although the other party was wrapped in bandages, Xiao Bing recognized the wheelchair-bound man, who was being pushed into the room. He said shamefully, “Uncle Lei.”

Uncle Lei sounded a little tired and husky. He said, “You didn’t think I would still be alive, right?”

“Yes. Haiz, Uncle Lei. I am ashamed.”

“It goes without saying. You want to harm Boss, so you must get rid of me first. I admire your ingenuity… I am now a disabled person, but I still admire you. However, I want to ask why you want to harm Boss. Is it because you know something?”

“What did I know?” Ye Tianming suddenly became crazy and said, “Know that he killed my mother?”

Yezi widened her eyes and shouted frantically, “Impossible. It is not possible!”

“Why is it impossible? I saw it with my own eyes!” Ye Tianming gnashed his teeth and said, “I saw him strangle Mother, but I didn’t stop him in time… In order not to let him find out, I hid my feelings so to avenge Mother in the future… Indeed, he is my father. However, he was the one who destroyed the family. I want to let him know that he has to pay a heavy price!”

Yezi shook her heads repeatedly and said despondently, “This is impossible…”

“Haha, at that period of time, when did he ever eat at home? He would go out for parties often and didn’t even come back at night. He was obviously unhappy with Mother. We are not children. Isn’t the situation extremely obvious? He already has a mistress outside!”

Yezi said, “It’s impossible. In any case, I don’t believe Father would do such a thing…”

Bao Lei suddenly sighed and said, “He is saying the truth.”

Yezi was shocked. It was as though she was struck by lightning. She murmured, “How could this happen?”

Ye Tianming sneered and said, “Am I right? Unfortunately, I didn’t intend to tell you this. I know that you are feeling very troubled recently.”

Bao Lei sighed emotionally, “However, Ye Tianming, you don’t know the truth.”

“What, what do you mean?”

Bao Lei sighed and said, “In this world, I’m the only person who knows the secret. You and Xinyi are not the boss’s own flesh and blood, only Xiaoxi is.”

“How, how is this possible…”

Not just Ye Tianming, everyone else was very surprised. Did Ye Bancheng not know about this? But if he didn’t know, how did Bao Lei know? If he knew, why would he go out of his way to let Ye Tianming inherit the company and let Ye Xinyi assist him?

Bao Lei said, “I know it sounds incredible. In fact, Lady Boss once had a good friend who was her childhood sweetheart before she got married. However, the man went abroad to work and never came back. When Lady Boss married Boss out of despair, the man came back again. However, he became very down and out. After learning about Lady Boss’ news, he went out of his way to find Lady Boss and wanted to make up with her.”

“At that time, your mother had married Boss, and Boss was very good to her. She refused, but she couldn’t stand the man’s sweet nothings. In the end, she accepted him and often indulged in a tryst. They would do some disgusting things. Soon after, your mother bore two children. In fact, even your mother didn’t know who fathered the children. She didn’t dare to think about or look into it. She didn’t dare to ask, because she knew that an ordinary person, let alone a person of high social status like Boss wouldn’t tolerate such things. If Boss knew about it, her childhood sweetheart would have to die.”

“Lady Boss then blamed herself a lot. Given her current situation, she really let Boss down. She was hesitating whether to make a clean break with the man. Later, she accidentally learned that the man had kept several mistresses behind her back. It turned out that the man approached your mother after learning that she had married a rich man. He kept cheating money from your mother… while he indulged in sensual pleasures and kept several mistresses.”

“After your mother had learned about this matter, she was depressed. She initiated to break off with him. No one knew where the man had gone to… After many years, the man came back to find Lady Boss again, but Boss found out. Boss ordered someone to send the man away secretly. No one knew if the man was killed or sent away. That was Boss’ first blow.”

“Boss once tried to collect a blood sample of you and your siblings. After the blood sample was analyzed, he learned that only Miss Xiaoxi was his own flesh and blood. Since then, the depressed Boss spent his whole day outside getting drunk and often spent his night with socialite… Your mother fell ill not because of anger but because of guilt.”

“Your mother’s illness was getting worse. She was suffering from a psychological disorder so the doctors couldn’t cure her. There was a time when your mother asked about her childhood sweetheart. Boss said that he had killed him. Both of them had a heated argument and Boss acted on a sudden impulse… I realized this matter when Boss was drunk. However, you saw it.”

“No,” Ye Tianming said despondently, “I’m not, I’m not my father’s son? Then he… then why did he give the company to me…”

“Then, after the death of your mother, Boss came to his realization. Actually, he always felt very sorry for your mother. Although he hated your mother for turning him into a cuckold, he loved his wife. He felt that he shouldn’t have killed your mother. He was too impulsive that day… He also said that no matter what, even though you and Big Missy weren’t part of the Ye Family’s lineage, he treated both of you as his own children since he watched both of you grow up.”

Ye Tianming shook his head. Xiao Bing took out a diary from his pocket and said, “This diary, which no one including Yezi had read before, was written by your father before his death. It had been locked up in the cabinet. In order to investigate the case, I specially asked Officer Jiang to retrieve it. Please take a look.”

Xiao Bing threw it to Ye Tianming. After Ye Tianming opened and looked at it, he realized it was indeed written by his father. He had recorded his journey over the years in detail, including his deep feelings and love for his three children, his anger when he learned about the truth, his licentious and drunken days and his sorrow and remorse after killing their mother. Even after he learned that Ye Tianming and Ye Xinyi weren’t his flesh and blood, he still loved them as much as before.

Ye Tianming kept looking. Although he was trying to control his feelings, tears still flowed out from his eyes.

He put the diary on the table. While crying, he laughed and said, “I didn’t expect, I didn’t expect… I planned to kill the person who loved me the most in this world… Haha… He loved me so deeply. Even though he knew that I was not his flesh and blood, he still wanted to give everything to me.”

Ye Tianming took a deep breath and looked at Yezi. He said pitifully and guiltily, “Little sister, I’m sorry… I let you take on so many things that you shouldn’t have taken on. I have destroyed this blissful family… Although I love you, little sister, I’m sorry.”

Ye Xiaoxi shook his head. She was trying not to cry. She said, “Elder brother, no matter what, you are still my elder brother… Brother Bing is right. If you do something wrong, you have to bear the responsibility. Only then can you find peace within yourself. Elder brother, Captain Jiang is here take you away today. Regardless of how heavy your sentence is, you will always be my elder brother forever.”

Ye Tianming sighed emotionally and said, “Xiaoxi, you have become much stronger.”

While talking, Ye Tianming looked at Xiao Bing. He then said, “Brother Bing, thanks to you, I’m lucky to have you beside me. I’m relieved to have you beside Xiaoxi. In fact… to all of you, I may be a heartless person who is blinded by my hatred and have disregarded all familial ties. However, I don’t know if you believe this. Even if I have killed all the people in the world, I won’t hurt Xiaoxi… because to me, she is my only family member, who is worth protecting and caring for.”

“Hence, when we first met, I heard that you and Xiaoxi were dating. I was so surprised. I wasn’t acting. It was real… I was really concerned about Xiaoxi. I cared for her safety and happiness.”

Ye Xiaoxi choked up and said, “Elder brother…”

“Silly girl… You must remember that elder brother will always protect you.”

Ye Tianming walked towards the window slowly. He opened the window and jumped onto the windowsill. When Xiao Bing realized that this was a high-rise building with more than ten storeys, he rushed forward. Ye Tianming shouted, “Stop!”

Xiao Bing stopped. He believed that Lil Bei would save Ye Tianming before he jumped down at his command. However, he saw Ye Tianming’s pleading eyes. He had never seen this look before. This was probably the first time a proud person like him would plead someone. He didn’t want Xiao Bing to save him, because, at this moment, death was probably the best relief for him.

Therefore, Xiao Bing turned around and shook his head slightly at Dumbass and Lil Bei. This was a man’s choice, so Xiao Bing respected his choice.

Ye Tianming breathed a sigh of relief and smiled relaxingly. At this moment, he still looked so confident, friendly and gentlemanly. He even placed his arms in front of his chest and bent forward slightly. He was like an artist giving his thanks after he finished performing on the stage. It was as though he wanted to acknowledge the cheers and applause of those countless people below the stage.

After bending forward, he said smilingly, “Little sister, elder brother will always love you, regardless in this world or in the other.”

Yezi cried and shouted, “No!”

Ye Tianming smiled and said, “Don’t be sad. If you love elder brother, please be happy for me. This is a relief.”

Ye Tianming looked at Xiao Bing again. He smiled in the similar fashion and said, “Brother Bing, it’s nice to know you. I’m glad to be defeated by you because you have shown me hope. Even if I’m not here, as long as you’re around, no one in this world will be able to hurt my sister. No one!”

Xiao Bing sighed emotionally and said, “Yes, I promise. No one.”

“Thank you. Remember my words. You must remember. Help my little sister manage this company. This is my father’s life’s work. In addition, you must always remember to be careful of Master Hou!”

“My life is now over. Goodbye, everyone!”

After speaking, Ye Tianming turned around and jumped off the window directly without any hesitation. He jumped off a high-rise building with more than a dozen storeys. He would surely be smashed to pieces!

Ye Tianming had been a gentleman all his life. Even at the moment of his death, he was so confident and gentlemanly.
