Shen Ye sneered. “Looks like someone is looking for trouble. I won’t be polite then.”

He calmly finished cooking the dish and washed his hands before heading outside. Ye Ze followed him silently.

Yang Ming and along with ten others charged in to enter the yard. Luckily, Ye Ze’s bodyguards were skilled and managed to stop them outside.

Shen Ye thought of his grandmother and worried that she would be upset if she knew that Yang Ming had sent people to cause trouble. The butler seemed to sense his concern and quickly reassured him, “Master Shen, please don’t worry. Madam Shen is inside the house and can’t hear anything outside.”

Shen Ye breathed a sigh of relief. He stood on the steps, looking down at Yang Ming. “What do you want?”

Yang Ming didn’t like Shen Ye’s attitude. Before, Shen Ye couldn’t even fart in front of him. Why was he acting like this today?

“I’m asking you, what did you do to your brother? Why does he keep complaining about pain?” Since returning home that day, Yang Jizu had been lying in bed, complaining about pain every day. He had been to the hospital several times, but couldn’t find anything wrong with his body.

Shen Ye raised an eyebrow. “I don’t have a brother.”

Yang Ming’s expression became unpleasant. He was about to scold Shen Ye, but then remembered why he had come. He suppressed his anger and asked, “Your grandmother is also here, right? Has she told you about her plans for the future?”

Shen Ye looked innocent. “What plans? Of course, she just wants to stay healthy.”

Hearing this, Yang Ming’s eyes became greedy. The reason he had been keeping Shen Ye’s grandmother was to get his hands on her gold bars.

He spoke in a particularly gentle tone, “You and your grandmother live here alone without any servants. It must be inconvenient. Why don’t you go back home?”

Shen Ye leaned in to whisper in Ye Ze’s ear, “I’ve seen shameless people before, but no one is as shameless as him.”

Ye Ze patted his head and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes. He didn’t even want to argue with him about the prank he played earlier.

Shen Ye waved his hand. “I’m fine. I’ll show him what I’m made of.”

Ye Ze nodded slightly. “You do what you think is best. I’ll bear any consequences.”

Shen Ye flashed him a smile. “Thank you.”

He had handsome features, and when he smiled, his eyes curved into a particularly delicate shape. Ye Ze’s gaze lingered on his eyes and brows, and his lips curved slightly upwards.

“Are you trying to bring me and my grandma back home just to kill us and take over my grandma’s property?” Shen Ye crossed his arms and walked up to Yang Ming, circling him.

Yang Ming’s thoughts were exposed, and he became angry and embarrassed: “What nonsense are you talking about? I care about you guys.”

“Is that so?” Shen Ye sneered at him. “Didn’t you send my grandma to a mental hospital? You are nothing but a greedy person!”

To be blunt, the Shen family had encountered a scumbag like Yang Ming, which was really unlucky.

Yang Ming wanted to get angry, but when he thought of the valuable possessions in Grandma Shen’s hands, he could only hold back his anger and deliberately slowed down his tone: “You have some misunderstandings about me and I can explain it to you. If you don’t believe me, you can come back home with me and see how I treat you. If I treat you badly, you can move out with your grandma anytime.”

For the sake of money, he could say anything.

Shen Ye touched his chin: “I can come back home with you.”

Yang Ming looked pleased.

“But you have to drive Liu Yuejuan and her son away. I don’t like them,” Shen Ye said.

Yang Ming was displeased: “They are also your relatives.”

“Relatives?” Shen Ye sneered. “But I remember, it was Liu Yuejuan who killed my mother.”

Yang Ming frowned: “Your mother died of a serious illness. If you keep talking nonsense, I will hit you.”

Shen Ye whispered in Ye Ze’s ear: “Tsk tsk, this shameless scum really loves his mistress.”

Ye Ze, who was not very happy, glanced at Yang Ming and suddenly grabbed Shen Ye’s wrist.

His grip was strong and it hurts Shen Ye.

“What’s wrong?” Shen Ye raised his head and asked.

Ye Ze tightly pursed his lips and did not speak.

Maybe it was because they had an engagement or maybe it was because they had developed some tacit understanding these past few days, Shen Ye could actually understand his thoughts: “Are you comforting me?”

Ye Ze still didn’t say anything but he held his wrist tighter.

Shen Ye felt a strange feeling in his heart. In his two lives, no one cared for him like this. It felt good.

“I’m not sad,” he whispered in Ye Ze’s ear, “I’m just thinking about how to torture him.”

The boy had a faint scent of grass and trees, which flowed into Ye Ze’s nostrils. Ye Ze also felt a strange feeling in his heart. He tried to capture it, but he had no idea what it was. He remained silent for a few seconds, then threw the elusive emotion to the back of his mind. He slowly released Shen Ye and rubbed his head: “Good.”

Yang Ming continued to coax him when he saw Shen Ye ignoring him: “If you and your grandma move back, I promise Liu Yuejuan and Jizu will no longer bother you…”

Before he finished speaking, Shen Ye interrupted him: “You knew that they are causing me trouble?”

Yang Ming was stunned.

Shen Ye: “You broke up with Liu Yuejuan to be with my mother because you wanted to climb up the Shen family. I can understand that because people want to strive for success. But, you shouldn’t have conspired with Liu Yuejuan to kill my mother after my grandfather died. You also shouldn’t have taken over my grandfather’s assets and sent my grandmother to a mental hospital…”

“What are you talking about? When did I kill your mother?!” Yang Ming shouted angrily, even though he had done all of these things. He didn’t want to be reminded of them, especially not by Shen Ye.

Shen Ye said, “You want to bring me back there to use the same tactics you used against my mother and kill me in that house, right?”

Yang Ming’s eyes flickered as he said, “What nonsense are you spouting?”

Shen Ye stared at his face and said, “Based on your appearance, you have done many evil deeds. Even the heavens cannot overlook them, and retribution will come soon.”

This was a curse and Yang Ming almost burst out in anger. But he suddenly remembered Shi Bajiao’s Weibo post and the fact that Shen Ye had also found the son of a wealthy businessman. He couldn’t help but feel a bit scared.

Maybe…Shen Ye really had some ability?

He bluffed, “I’m your father. If anything happens to me, you won’t be able to escape the consequences.”

In other words, he wanted Shen Ye to stop cursing him.

Shen Ye smiled slightly and said, “I wasn’t planning on taking revenge so soon. But since you’ve come to me, I won’t hold back.”

He also wanted to see the true power of the talisman drawn by the peachwood brush.

Perhaps fearing that Shen Ye would take action, Yang Ming ordered his bodyguards to grab him first.

Ye Ze’s face turned cold as he stood in front of Shen Ye.

Shen Ye looked at his tall and straight back and was momentarily stunned. This was the first time someone had stood up to protect him in a moment of danger. In the past, he had always been the protector. Without hesitation, Ye Ze stood in front of him. It had to be said that this feeling was more moving than when Ye Ze had expressed concern for him. Shen Ye felt soft and warm inside, feeling even better than when he rubbed against the purple aura.

“Leave him to me,” Ye Ze said softly.

He had plenty of ways to make the Yang Ming family pay the price.

Shen Ye came to his senses and shook his head. “I’ll handle it myself.”

On the first day he arrived, he had made up his mind to avenge the original owner himself.

For a few seconds, Ye Ze looked at him calmly but ultimately did not force him.

While they were talking, the bodyguards from Ye’s family had already taken down all of Yang Ming’s men. Yang Ming was scared and ran towards the gate.

Shen Ye blocked his way and said, “As a phoenix man like you who conspired with a third party to kill your original wife and take over your wife’s family’s assets, you will be struck by lightning from the heavens. Do you understand?”

Yang Ming spat, “I don’t believe the heavens can do anything to me!”

For so many years, he had plotted against the Shen family and had also plotted against his peers in the business world. He had more than one life in his hands but had not seen any retribution. Instead, he lived better. He only believed in the saying that if one did not act for oneself, heaven and earth would not destroy them1if a person acts solely for their own benefit, they will eventually face consequences for their actions. But those who act with integrity and consideration for others will be rewarded and protected by the universe.. Speaking of retribution, it was those who opposed him that had all died.

“Unrepentant until death!” Shen Ye’s eyes turned cold and a talisman was thrown toward Yang Ming’s head.

The next second, there was a loud bang above Yang Ming’s head. The talisman paper struck him with a thunderbolt. Yang Ming was scared and ran around but could not escape the pursuit of the talisman paper. In the end, he was hit by the talisman and fell to the ground, barely breathing, with burnt clothes and hair, and open wounds all over his body.

Shen Ye walked up to Yang Ming and kicked him a few times. Yang Ming moaned in pain and screamed out in agony.

“I’ll spare your life today.” Shen Ye kicked him out of the courtyard and lowered his head to stroke the peach wood brush, sincerely saying, “This is really a treasure!”

If he used an ordinary brush to draw talismans, he could not possibly achieve such good results.

Yang Ming had only one breath left and curled up his bruised body, asking weakly, “What method did you use…”

Shen Ye, of course, could not answer him, and said flatly, “Yang Jizu only got hit by the simplest talisman and had to lie in bed as a cripple every day. You are much worse off than him. Go to the hospital quickly, otherwise, you won’t survive.”

Yang Ming’s face suddenly became ferocious, and he glared at Shen Ye with a dark look, as if he wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood. If he could move, Yang Ming would have slapped Shen Ye in the face.

“Little beast, I am your father. I gave life to you and raised you, and you treat me like this. Aren’t you afraid of retribution?!” Yang Ming cursed fiercely. Earlier, he wanted to coax Shen Ye back and get the gold bars from Grandma Shen, but now that they had torn their faces, he had no scruples and cursed loudly: “You are as annoying as your mother! If I had known, I would have killed you directly!”

Shen Ye was not angry at all. Instead, he was quite happy to be scolded, after all, Yang Ming could only show off with his mouth.

“You, an evil creature who does evil deeds, actually believed in retribution?” Shen Ye walked up to him with a smile and kicked him, “Even if there is retribution, it should fall on your head. Weren’t you just struck by lightning a moment ago?”

Thinking of the power of the talisman just now, Yang Ming was scared and hated it.

Shen Ye looked at his blackened face that was burned by the talisman and said, “Let me tell you something else. For more than 20 years, Liu Yuejuan has been cuckolding you and Yang Jizu is not your son. You’ve cuckolded for years.”

Yang Ming spewed out a mouthful of blood, “Shut up! I won’t be swayed by you. Give it up!”

Shen Ye ignored him and continued, “You have a brother named Dai Zhiyin, right? He was your middle school classmate and has been helping you do a lot of bad things behind the scenes. He helped you kill and set fires and helped you transfer the Shen family’s assets. You thought he was your best friend, but you didn’t know that he had long been colluding with Liu Yuejuan and Yang Jizu is his son.”
