Chapter 495 Better to Kill the Wrong Person
Ye Qinghao's lips curled up briefly, then he suppressed it: "Alright, as long as you've made your decision, don't worry, I'm your father, and I'll support whatever decision you make."
"Thank you, Father." Ye Qing'an smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes; his words were more eloquent than his singing.
"How are things between you and Xu Mo now?"
A fleeting hint of shyness flashed across Ye Qing'an's eyes, and she lowered her head, her voice a few decibels lower: "I'm doing well with Doctor Xu. Doctor Xu treats me and Eleven very well."
"That's good." Ye Qinghao nodded. "Xu Mo has been gone with Fei Ran for quite some time now, hasn't he? Haven't they returned yet?"
Ye Qing'an sighed: "He did send me a message saying that Mr. Qingyuan said that Fei Ran's illness requires eradicating the root cause, which cannot be done overnight. He has barely managed to save Fei Ran's life, but Fei Ran is currently weak and still in a coma. He needs to be given acupuncture and medicine every day to draw the poison out of his body little by little."
Ye Qinghao frowned: "Will it take a long time?"
Ye Qing'an nodded, then sighed softly, "At least half a year, at most..."
Ye Qing'an looked sad and self-reproachful, then pursed her lips: "However, Xu Mo said that he has discussed it carefully with Mr. Qingyuan and will definitely cure Fei Ran well. He will not leave Liuyun City until Fei Ran is cured. Liuyun City is not far from our Wangjing. If we miss or worry about Fei Ran, we can go to Liuyun City to visit her at any time."
Ye Qinghao walked a few more steps in the fog before stopping: "Can't we bring Feiran back to Wangjing City to recuperate and treat his illness? I can let Mr. Qingyuan stay at the Ye residence and treat him with the utmost respect."
“Mr. Qingyuan said that there is a spiritual spring in Liuyun City that can help Feiran detoxify and recuperate. If he returns to Wangjing City, it may not be as effective. Moreover…” Ye Qingan lowered his head: “From the letter Xu Mo sent, I read that Mr. Qingyuan seems unwilling to join a noble family and get involved in their disputes. If it weren’t for Doctor Xu’s request, I’m afraid he wouldn’t even want to save Feiran.”
“That’s true.” Ye Qinghao didn’t seem too surprised. “Mr. Qingyuan is just like that, very hypocritical.”
After saying that, he waved his hand again: "Alright, let's leave it at that. Fei Ran's health is the most important thing. Since Mr. Qingyuan said he has a way to treat him, then he must have a way. Let him stay there. His health is the most important thing."
Ye Qing'an nodded, but a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes.
What is the most important thing? It is clearly the body. Ye Qinghao never took Fei Ran to heart.
Fei Ran's reputation in Wangjing City hasn't been very good over the years, as he frequently gets into trouble. While it doesn't have a huge impact on him, it does make him lose face.
Ye Qinghao probably wished Fei Ran wasn't in Wangjing City, so someone could keep an eye on him and prevent him from causing trouble. This current situation is exactly what he wanted, and he couldn't be happier.
Ye Qing'an thought to himself, but didn't show it on his face: "Thank you for your concern, Father."
“After all, he’s my son.” Ye Qinghao waved his hand. “But… Feiran will be staying with Mr. Qingyuan for at least half a year. Xu Mo wouldn’t be planning to stay there with him, would he? What about you and Eleven?”
Ye Qing'an's face flushed slightly: "Doctor Xu said he will come back after Fei Ran wakes up."
"Does he know when Fei Ran will wake up?"
"I don't know."
Ye Qinghao frowned: "Then what are we waiting for? We don't have to wait until Fei Ran wakes up before we come back. Send him a message saying that Mr. Qingyuan is renowned and is also his master. I trust Mr. Qingyuan's medical skills and character completely. I feel at ease leaving Fei Ran there. Let him return to the manor as soon as possible."
"After all, you have just been promoted to the Supreme Realm, which is a crucial moment. It would be good if you could have someone to talk to if you brought him back."
Ye Qing'an knew that Ye Qinghao must have had a purpose in bringing this up, but she still obediently agreed: "Yes, daughter understands. Daughter will go and send him a message later."
Ye Qinghao nodded, thought carefully, and realized that he had already explained everything that needed to be explained.
"Alright, that's all. You can leave now."
Ye Qing'an responded, bowed, and then left the study and the main courtyard.
The butler stood at the door watching Ye Qing'an leave the main courtyard before turning around and closing the study door.
Ye Qinghao dragged the teacup over, and the jade thumb ring struck the teacup, making a crisp sound.
Ye Qinghao pursed his lips: "Have you asked them all? Is everything as Ye Qing'an described?"
"Yes, your subordinate has already asked the people we've placed in the palace, and it is indeed as the young lady said. The Emperor wants the young lady to enter the palace as a concubine, but he will not favor her; she will only work for him."
"That old fox has a brilliant idea."
Ye Qinghao snorted coldly: "Is there anything else in the manor?"
The butler released a sound-spy bubble from his sleeve: "After the young lady returned to the manor, the only opportunity I found was to place a sound-spy bubble in the mourning hall..."
Ye Qinghao responded and clicked on the audio bubble to listen.
After listening for a while, Ye Qinghao's face darkened: "What's wrong with Wei Lan? How did her temperament become like this?"
The butler lowered his head: "The second young lady is a bit too vain..."
"If she continues like this, I'll have to think of something. If she's like this, she can't really be used by me, and I can't trust her to work with me. In that case, it would be better to just... get rid of her to avoid any future troubles."
The butler responded in a low voice.
Ye Qinghao continued listening, and after hearing everything, his expression grew even more unpleasant.
After a long while, Ye Qinghao finally spoke: "Ye Qing'an's suspicions are somewhat reasonable. All indications suggest that Ye Qing'an did not lie to us before, and her suspicions are also based on evidence. Liu Xueying may indeed be Ye Mei."
"A Nightshade, yet lacking all the physical characteristics of a Nightshade, appearing no different from a normal person. In this situation, what kind of child is born from a Nightshade and a human? Is it a Nightshade or a human? Could it also possess the abilities of a Nightshade? Could it also weave illusions?"
Ye Qinghao stood up, feeling a chill run through him.
The butler understood the meaning behind Ye Qinghao's words. After hesitating for a moment, he whispered to comfort him, "Is the master overthinking things? Even if a child born from a woman is born from a woman, it doesn't necessarily mean that the child can weave the illusions of the woman."
"It's not certain that it can, nor is it certain that it can't. It's just..."
Ye Qinghao's gaze gradually calmed down, but a cold glint remained in his pupils: "Even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, I cannot let my guard down."
"Better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free."
Ye Qinghao's face was cold: "Liu Xueying must have had a purpose in entering the Ye residence. I have been deceived by Liu Xueying for so many years, and I can no longer continue to be deceived."
