Chapter 606: Initially identified as a ruthless person at 606
Moran still stood holding a gift, performing a solo act which seemed a bit awkward.
Ye Gaosheng always had a straightforward nature, without too many twists and turns in his mind.
In the past, when he had first met Liu Yunqing, he was overpowered by the nobility radiating from him. Now, seeing him again, everything had changed beyond recognition.
"The Liu Family’s gift is more than we can bear. Don’t come giving gifts now and later accuse the Ye Family of stealing from the Liu Family. My family has neither name nor power; we dare not confront the Liu Family," Ye Gaosheng said with a hint of sarcasm in his words.
Liu Yunqing’s expression immediately became complicated as he gazed at Ye Gaosheng, a touch of guilt in his eyes, "There was a reason things happened as they did back then. I had to leave the capital city suddenly and failed to make proper arrangements for you, Brother Ye. It was my fault. Much time has passed since then, and speaking of it now is already useless. However, today I sincerely came to apologize, hoping you can forgive me."
"Forgive?" This was the first time Ye Gaosheng showed genuine ferocity in front of others, "To you, it might have been a long time, but to me, the Liu Family’s slander and the pain of losing my leg feel as if they happened just yesterday, vividly in my sights!"
The pain and humiliation are something that those who have never experienced can never truly understand.
Even though his younger sister had already broken Liu San’s leg in revenge, it could not erase the suffering Ye Gaosheng had endured.
"So, what would it take for you to forgive my mistake?" Liu Yunqing would agree to any demand Ye Gaosheng might make.
It wasn’t so much the trauma that Ye Gaosheng had suffered that gave Liu Yunqing a restless conscience, but because of his aunt, the hundreds of lives of the Liu Family, and his newly discovered cousin, Ye Jiu!
He had never intended to harm Ye Gaosheng or to take anything from the Ye Family, but the deed was done, and he wouldn’t place all the blame on himself.
Today, Liu Yunqing could stand in the grand hall of the Ye Family, so humble and low, all because of a secret that others didn’t know and yet he couldn’t mention.
"What I want?" Ye Gaosheng sneered, "I want you to return what you stole from me, and I want you to compensate for the pain of losing my leg. Will that do?"
Once, he had thought of Liu Yunqing as akin to a celestial being, unattainable. Now, listening to Liu Yunqing’s seemingly generous words, he only found them ironic.
Separated by only a screen in the back hall, Ye Jiu was silent and pensive.
She had always known her brother harbored hatred, but this extreme version of her brother still shocked and estranged her.
Perhaps her brother had played the fool so well that this current unforgiving stance made Ye Gaosheng seem all the more shocking to Ye Jiu.
And then there was Liu Yunqing, who had traveled thousands of miles from the capital city to this insignificant town just to apologize? It didn’t quite seem likely.
No, it didn’t look like it at all.
However, here he was, truly standing in their family’s grand hall apologizing, whether it was an act or not, his tone was nothing but polite and even somewhat humble.
What shocked Ye Jiu even more came after.
Ye Gaosheng wasn’t a bad person; it was just his overwhelming anger that made him demand compensation for the pain of his broken leg.
Unexpectedly, Liu Yunqing fell silent for a moment, then lightly parted his lips and slowly uttered a word, "Agreed!"
No sooner had he spoken than Liu Yunqing, to everyone’s surprise, swung his hand and mercilessly smashed it toward his own leg.
Peeking from behind, Ye Jiu could see that Liu Yunqing’s palm was filled with powerful Inner Strength, and he did not hesitate to strike himself, clearly a ruthless man.
