Chapter 189 The triplets are not Ye Mian's children

Ye Yaoyao already knew what Ye Mian was going to do from the system. Her playful gaze instantly turned cold, and she clenched her fist and punched Ye Mian in the eye socket.

"You'll use my mother and the Liu family to advance your future."

Ye Mian was struck by Ye Yaoyao's sudden punch, his vision blurred, and he staggered back a few steps, roaring, "You rebellious daughter, how dare you lay a hand on me!"

Ye Yaoyao glared at her angrily: "So what if I hit you? A heartless and ungrateful person like you deserves to be beaten!"

"This is outrageous! Someone come here!" Ye Mian originally wanted to teach Ye Yaoyao a lesson himself, but after seeing the people around him, he changed his mind and called for help.

Ye Xiumu silenced him by pressing his acupoint, and Ye Mian looked terrified.

[You dare send people to the Liu family to plant traitorous and treasonous spies? See how I deal with you!]

Ye Xiumu looked over with a cold gaze, "Yaoyao, I'll teach him a lesson."

"Fine, do as you please! Do whatever you want!"

[Father, give him a good beating and avenge Mother.]

With a "bang!", Ye Mian was knocked to the ground, spitting out blood. He struggled to his feet and went to find a weapon.

"So weak." Ye Xiumu kicked him away with one kick.

Even with weapons, they were no match for their opponents. Unable to speak or escape, they were left only to be tortured.

Ye Yaoyao sat to the side watching Ye Mian get beaten up, and Ye Xiumu only stopped when Ye Mian couldn't get up anymore.

"Too weak, not satisfying at all." Ye Mian was beaten and lay on the ground unable to move, his pressure points released.

"Ye Yaoyao, I'm still your father, aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

Ye Mian glared at Ye Yaoyao with bloodshot eyes.

"You've already forgotten the pain as soon as your back injury heals? Don't you even know how you got struck by lightning?"

Ye Mian shrank back, realizing it was this enchantress.

"Of the four children, you are the only one who brings misfortune to your father. If I had known this would happen, I should have strangled you the moment you were born."

"You don't deserve it." Ye Xiumu kicked him.

"You're no good at literature, and you're even less capable at martial arts. With your genes, the fact that you could give birth to such outstanding triplets is truly thanks to the good deeds of the Liu family ancestors."

Ye Yaoyao meant that Ye Mian's bloodline was lowly, and Ye Mian lowered his head and sneered.

So what? He will be the father of those three bastards for the rest of his life.

He can't control Ye Yaoyao, but he can still manage the other three, since filial piety has always been paramount.

[Host, something important has been discovered. Something important has been discovered.]

[System, what is it?]

The origins of the triplets remain a mystery. Data is loading, please wait.

What? Big Brother and the others really aren't Ye Mian's children.

Ye Xiumu looked at Ye Yaoyao in surprise. If the triplets weren't Ye Mian's children, then what exactly had Yun Shu suffered back then?

Ye Xiumu looked at Ye Mian, his killing intent boiling. He opened and closed his clenched fists, afraid of killing him now. He pulled Ye Yaoyao away quickly.

Ye Yaoyao followed along, her eyes fixed on the information provided by the system.

"Master, little sister." The two met Ye Li'an after leaving Qingzhu Courtyard.

Ye Yaoyao didn't hear it, but Ye Xiumu made a gesture towards him.

Back in Ye Yaoyao's courtyard, they saw her eyes wide open, and Ye Li'an asked softly:

"Master, what has my little sister discovered?"

"It's related to you."

"Damn it! The most important part is gone again." Ye Yaoyao looked it over, slammed her hand on the table, and complained.

"Little sister, what important place is it?"

"Big brother, I've discovered a huge secret." Ye Yaoyao looked at him excitedly.

"What secret?"

"You really aren't Ye Mian's child."

Ye Li'an's pupils widened, and her heart suddenly started racing.

"Ye Mian was originally a failure in the exam. It was Chen Guojiu who orchestrated everything behind the scenes. His goal was to take care of my mother."

“Chen Chengsi did indeed come to your door to ask for your mother's hand in marriage, but was rejected,” Ye Xiumu said.

"He actually liked his aunt. His aunt married his uncle, and he used his mother as a substitute! He only secretly supported Ye Mian because he couldn't marry his mother."

Ye Mian had planned to meet his mother from the very beginning; after their marriage, Chen Guojiu would sleep in Ye Mian's place in the bridal chamber.

Ye Xiumu was furious. "That damned Chen Chengsi, I won't let him get away with this!"

Ye Lian clenched his fists, his face grim. What difference was there between Ye Mian and Chen Chengsi? It was just that his mother had caused him even greater harm.

“Then I am Chen Guojiu’s son.” Ye Li’an closed his eyes in anguish.

"No, my elder brother is not Chen Chengsi's son either."

Ye Lian suddenly opened her eyes and asked anxiously, "Little sister, what exactly is going on? Who is my biological father?"

"I do not know either."

Ye Mian initially thought the triplets were Chen Guojiu's children, but from Ye Mian's perspective, he didn't know who the triplets' parents were either.

"Your mother has been taken away, and your origins are a mystery."

At this moment, the atmosphere in the room was heavy and oppressive.

Ye Li'an was silent for a moment, then said, "No matter what, we must seek justice for our mother."

Ye Yaoyao nodded: "Yes, we must make those who hurt Mother pay the price!"

Sigh! My older brother's background is even more complicated than mine! I wish they were also my father's children.

Ye Li'an looked at Ye Xiumu, whose face was gloomy, and asked, "Is that possible?"

[Host, you've got a pretty good tongue. Why don't you ask your father?]

【Alright! 】

"Father! Where were you when Mother got married?"

“Outside the city, the love potion in my body took effect, and I was soaking in a pond in the suburbs.”

He had no memory of the love potion that day, but he could still hear his daughter's thoughts. But was that even possible?

"Then wouldn't you also be mentally unstable?"

"Yes, I woke up by the pool."

[Host, the chances aren't great! One's inside the city, the other's outside.]

[System, anything is possible. I'm not bad with words, you know? I hope the triplets are my dad's children, and I hope we siblings share the same father.]

[Haha! That works too, host. If you're right again this time, then you'll have the supernatural power of making your words come true.]

From now on, everyone can just treat you like a living deity; there's no need to go to the temple to pray.

[Haha! It doesn't matter if it's accurate in the future, as long as it's accurate this time.]

Ye Xiumu and Ye Li'an looked at Ye Yaoyao with doting eyes.

"We haven't figured out your three backgrounds yet, so don't tell your mother about it."

"Yes, Master."

"Furthermore, Ye Mian is trying to frame my maternal grandfather for treason and has had evidence planted in the garden. Someone will come to search the house first thing tomorrow morning."

"I'll go tell my grandfather right away." Ye Li'an quickly went out and used his light-footed skill to hurry towards the Liu family.

The next day, while Ye Yaoyao was having breakfast, Old Madam Ye came over and caused trouble, carrying a stick.

"Ye Yaoyao, you monster, how can you still eat this? I'll beat you to death."

Ye Jingyang stopped her with one hand.

"Grandma, what's the logic in scolding my little sister so early in the morning?"

Liu Yunshu stood in front of Madam Ye and said, "If you can't stay in this nice home, I'll send you back to your hometown."
