Chapter: 2760
Ye Zhongquan was surprised when Charlie Wade admitted something so easily. He hadn’t expected such openness from him. After a moment, he sighed and said, “Chen’er, you’re making a mistake!”
Charlie frowned and asked, “What do you mean?”
Ye Zhongquan replied, “You’re confused for thinking about going after Su Shoudao. Remember, he’s the eldest son of the Su family. He vanished in Buckingham Palace. The Ye family can’t just ignore that!”
Charlie shot back, “What? Did Su Chengfeng ask you about this?”
“Yes!” Ye Zhongquan said with a worried expression. “Su Chengfeng called me, yelling and threatening that he would retaliate against the Ye family! You know we’ve always kept things civil between us. This time we’ve crossed a line, and the Su family will hit back hard. If we cause trouble, we’ll be the ones in the wrong, and it’ll be tough for us to recover!”
Charlie smiled and said, “Is that why you called me?”
Ye Zhongquan sensed the disrespect in Charlie’s tone and replied seriously, “Chen’er, I know you have a strong temper and don’t like to hold back. But you need to think about the bigger picture! This guy has been completely sidelined by his father. He’s not a threat. What’s the point in going after him? It will only give the Su family a reason to come after us!”
Charlie remained calm and said, “I’m not doing this for the Ye family. I want him to pay for what he did with the Anti-Leaf Alliance. When he targeted my father, I decided to target him back. I don’t just want to hold him; I plan to take him to my parents’ grave at Yeling Mountain during the ancestor worship ceremony and make him apologize!”
Ye Zhongquan was taken aback by Charlie’s words.
“You… you want the Su family to suffer with us! If that’s true, I won’t hold the ancestor worship ceremony this year. We can’t start a war with the Su family now! They are already unhappy with us. If we just wait, the higher-ups will put pressure on the Su family. That will take the focus off us. When trouble comes, it will fall on us…”
Charlie Wade smirked and replied, “Master, don’t be so afraid. This isn’t as complicated as you think. You can relax; I’ve sent Su Shoudao to Syria. No one can find him, and I’ll make sure the outside world doesn’t know where he is, so you won’t get hurt.”
Ye Zhongquan sighed, “Chen’er, why do you think this problem is so simple? He went missing from Buckingham Palace! Even if you handle it perfectly, we can’t just ignore it!”
Charlie Wade smiled and asked, “Father, what was the first question you asked me?”
Ye Zhongquan looked surprised, “What was the first question?”
Charlie Wade said, “Right after you called, the first thing you asked me.”
Ye Zhongquan suddenly realized, “I asked if you were involved in Su Shoudao’s disappearance.”
Charlie Wade casually replied, “Oh, I wasn’t involved.”
Ye Zhongquan was momentarily speechless and then said with a sigh, “Chen’er, you’re being silly… Su Chengfeng isn’t a child. Will he really believe that?”
Charlie Wade smiled and said, “If he doesn’t believe it, just tell him Su Shoudao has never been to Buckingham Palace.”
