BXBX NOVEL Chapter 4: Chapter 4 I will definitely not let you down!
Risking the scrutiny of odd gazes from all around, seven girls chose to marry him at the same time. What determination and courage that must have taken!
With that in mind, how could he not pull himself together?
By his side, Su Yixue was somewhat touched as she spoke, "Elder sister, aren't you being too harsh on Ye Fan? After all, his intelligence hasn't recovered yet."
Yu Linglong's eyebrows twitched slightly, "The previous checks confirmed that there is nothing wrong with Ye Fan's head, and his nerves haven't been affected at all. We must be missing something. I have recently made contact with the Great Xia Medical Saint Lei Qianjue. He will definitely find a solution. I'll spare no expense to have him treat Ye Fan!"
To invite the Divine Doctor Lei Qianjue to treat him?
A thought struck Ye Fan's heart. If Lei Qianjue came, it would perfectly coincide with a plan of his own.
Ye Fan had already investigated; although his grandfather appeared fine on the surface, the latent injuries from battles in his youth, combined with such a heavy blow, were nearly crushing him.
Without proper care, he feared his grandfather didn't have much time left.
Although Ye Fan was extraordinarily skilled in medicine, he now needed to feign ignorance. To care for his grandfather without raising suspicion, he couldn't act directly. But if Lei Qianjue were to come, he could use Lei's assistance to provide the necessary care.
At this thought, Ye Fan waved his hands, holding his bangle and chirped, "Yay! Yay! I want to be treated, I want to be treated!"
At this moment, Ye Fan still needed to continue playing the fool.
Yu Linglong watched with furrowed brows, feeling that something was amiss but couldn't quite put her finger on it.
The other six stunning girls looked at Ye Fan with eyes full of sympathy.
Stepping forward, Su Yixue embraced Ye Fan, soothingly saying, "Ye Fan, don't worry, we sisters will definitely find a way to cure you! Even if we can't, we will take care of you for the rest of your life, and bear you many, many chubby little boys!"
By the end of her speech, the seven girls' faces were flushed with embarrassment.
Although, at the funeral, in their urgency, they had made such a decision, they were, after all, innocent maidens. When it came to such private matters, they couldn't help but feel shy.
Yu Linglong, being the oldest at 26, was somewhat more composed, "Grandfather, here's our plan! Since Yixue is in Cloud City, she will take care of Ye Fan during the first month. Then, for the second month, Qing Ruolan from Flower Capital in Provincial City will take his care, and then for the third month..."
Yu Linglong described everyone's plan, as Ye Changfeng listened on the side, his tears flowing uncontrollably.
"Good girls! Grandfather thanks you all!"
As he spoke, Ye Changfeng knelt down toward Yu Linglong and the others.
The seven sons of the Ye Family were dead, so by rights, the affairs of the Ye Family should have had nothing to do with these granddaughters-in-law who had not yet married into the family.
Yet they were willing to sacrifice their innocence to continue the Ye family lineage.
This was an enormous favor!
Frightened, Yu Linglong and Su Yixue hurried to help Ye Changfeng up from the ground, "Grandfather, you mustn't! You mustn't! Together we'll work hard, and the Ye Family will surely grow stronger!"
Ye Changfeng stood up and, with a serious look, said to Ye Fan, "Ye Fan, remember this: no matter if you can return to normal in the future, you must treat these seven girls well, understand? If you dare let them down, grandfather will personally end your life!"
It's easy to add flowers to brocade, but difficult to send coal in snow!
In such adversity, the kindness of the seven sisters to Ye Fan, and to the Ye Family, how could Ye Fan forget?
Ye Fan silently swore in his heart, I definitely will not let you sisters down!
But for now, you will have to endure some hardship for a while.
"Oh!" Ye Fan responded, seemingly a bit at a loss to those around.
Su Yixue, feeling pity for him, pulled Ye Fan beside her, "It's getting late, so today I'll take Ye Fan back with me! There's a business banquet organized by Zhao Tianlong tonight, and it's a good opportunity to take Ye Fan out!"
Upon hearing the name Zhao Tianlong, Ye Fan's heart suddenly lurched, and a familiar image surfaced in his mind.
Five years ago, when Ye Fan had a car accident, in the last moments before he lost consciousness, he saw the driver in the cab – a man with a scar on his face.
And just now, while he was in the Ye Family Courtyard, Ye Fan had seen the man with the scar standing right beside Zhao Tianlong.
The car accident that happened years ago must surely be tied to the Zhao Family.
A sharp glint flashed in Ye Fan's eyes!
If that was the case, then revenge would begin with the Zhao Family!
...
In the Ye Family Courtyard, Ye Changfeng had just returned home and nearly collapsed into a chair.
Looking at the empty courtyard, Ye Changfeng couldn't help feeling sorrowful once again.
The Guard Captain, Leng Feng, stood by respectfully and reported in a low voice, "Elder Ye, according to the intelligence, Xu Jian and his son have recently been intensifying their plans to liaise with the major shareholders, aiming to transfer and occupy Ye Corporation's assets. What do you think..."
Ye Changfeng waved his hand, "I've known about their little moves for a long time, those assets worth hundreds of billions, the Ye Family never really cared for them! But now, since those seven girls have chosen to protect Xiao Fan, I need to leave something for them. Pay more attention to the company's situation and ensure everything is within controllable limits."
"Yes!" Leng Feng responded, his lips moved twice, and catching a glimpse of the family photo hanging on the wall, his voice choked up again, "Elder Ye, the young masters must have been plotted against, those people are too ruthless..."
Ye Changfeng leaned powerlessly in his chair, saying helplessly, "I know, and I can more or less guess some of the people who took part in the plot, but now... the Ye Family, alas, what good does it do knowing?"
A family, no matter how decadent or prosperous, fears nothing more than having no successors.
Elder Ye indeed had very strong influence in the military, but all the males with talent and potential in the Ye Family had perished, and what could Ye Changfeng's prestige do?
Could the Ye Family rely on an idiot with the intelligence of a seven or eight-year-old child?
Moreover, even if the seven daughters-in-law chose to continue marrying Ye Fan, that could only delay the decline of the Ye Family.
Unless all seven girls could quickly bear children for Ye Fan, and Elder Ye could live at least another twenty years, ensuring the growth of the fourth generation of the Ye Family!
If that was the case, perhaps the Ye Family would still have a chance to rise again!
"Ah! If only the young master could recover from his idiotic state!"
...
In the Northwest, within a dim courtyard, an elder knelt devoutly before a Buddha statue, holding several sticks of incense respectfully, praying.
By the door, a young man in camouflage waited until the elder stood up before presenting a stack of documents, saying, "Elder Zhang, there's news from Cloud City. The funeral went smoothly, and Ye Changfeng's demeanor was normal, there are no major disturbances in the Northern Heavenly Dragon Army!"
"However, there was a minor incident at the funeral. The Xuan Family called off their engagement with the Ye Family, but Ye Fan's seven sisters-in-law announced in public that they would marry Ye Fan to spread the Ye family's branches. What should we do about this?"
Hmm?
Upon hearing his subordinate's report, the elder snorted coldly from his nostrils, exuding an aura of authority that only those in high positions possess.
"Presumptuous! Are they not clear about what awaits the Ye Family? We must punish them severely, to kill the chicken to scare the monkey! Isn't the Su Family just in Cloud City? Then let them see the consequences of getting close to the Ye Family." The elder paused for a moment, then continued, "Additionally, keep a close watch on Ye Fan. If he shows any anomalies, take action immediately!"
As he spoke, the elder made a throat-slitting gesture to his subordinate.
One moment he was devoutly offering prayers, and the next, he was treating human life as if it were worthless.
With a single sentence, he decided a man's life or death!
In Cloud City, at this time, Su Yixue had brought Ye Fan back to her residence. After changing into a new set of clothes, she was hurrying with Ye Fan to a banquet organized by the Zhao Family.
"Ye Fan, when we get to the event, could you please not say anything out of place? Just stay close to me obediently, and I will protect you!" Su Yixue gently hugged Ye Fan's arm, her eyes filled with tenderness.
Once, Ye Fan had been such a dazzling prodigy.
"Okay, sister-in-law!"
Su Yixue was taken aback, then coquettishly tapped him gently on the shoulder, her face blushing as she said, "Still calling me sister-in-law? From now on, you should call me wife, you know?"
