Reborn in the 80s: The Smart Wife with a Secret Space Chapter 1255: He Will Let Them Experience What It Means to Draw Water with a Bamboo Basket—All for Nothing

Upon Xinyan's return to the kitchen, He Jinxuan inquired, "Who was on the phone?"

Approaching him with a smile, Xinyan relayed, "Ye Liyan's father has been located. Liyan mentioned he'll be packing up to head back to the Capital soon to settle some matters and plans to introduce us."

He Jinxuan hadn't anticipated that Ye Liyan's father would actually be found.

Before the establishment of Jian Country, the Ye Family was a distinguished lineage. They contributed generously to the war effort, with many of their sons making the ultimate sacrifice on the battlefield.

However, during a period of significant upheaval, the Ye Family became a target and endured severe hardship.

Later, Ye Wande led those in pursuit away, intending to protect his wife and children. From that point forward, all contact was lost.

Ye Liyan's mother faced immense struggles while raising him, eventually succumbing to illness and passing away when Ye Liyan was sixteen.

Had Ye Liyan not possessed a remarkable talent for scientific research and been highly regarded, his situation would have been exceedingly dire.

When cousin Shen Ninghui married Ye Liyan, He Jinxuan initiated an investigation into Ye Liyan and, through specialized channels, discovered his lineage from the Ye Family.

Noticing his pensive mood, Xinyan asked, "What's troubling you?"

He Jinxuan candidly shared the situation with Xinyan, explaining, "Their family has been reunited, but Ninghui has suffered."

Understanding He Jinxuan's emotions, Xinyan offered, "Destiny guides all things; try to find peace beyond what's apparent."

He Jinxuan nodded in agreement. "When they return, it will be an appropriate time to visit the cemetery; it should be around Ninghui's memorial day."

Meanwhile, Mr. Ye beamed with delight, holding a grandson in each arm.

Having found his son, the fear of impending death no longer held sway over him.

Yet, gazing upon his two cherished grandsons, he resolved to live, cherishing these children immensely and desiring to witness their growth.

Today, a call arrived from across the ocean, informing him of his dear second wife's audacious actions; she was indeed quite daring.

He offered gratitude to the heavens for allowing him to meet Xinyan on the train.

Without her intervention, his life might have ended much sooner, especially considering that Xiao Liu was deliberately placed by his side by his second wife.

He had never imagined his second wife to be such a duplicitous individual, projecting benevolence while harboring ruthless intentions.

The prolonged silence regarding his son was entirely attributed to her cunning machinations; he had truly underestimated her.

The notion that she could covet his wealth was a miscalculation on her part.

Looking at the grandson nestled in his embrace, he instructed, "Go play amongst yourselves; Grandpa needs to have a private discussion with your father."

The two boys obediently replied, "Okay."

Once they had departed, Mr. Ye finally spoke, "Son, we shall return to the Capital at the earliest opportunity to manage your affairs. We will temporarily entrust the children to their uncle. You must accompany me urgently."

Ye Liyan felt a slight reluctance to comply, acknowledging his father but feeling uneasy about his father's remarriage there.

Mr. Ye omitted the details of his past betrayal, assuring his son, "In this life, you are my sole son; no one else should ever harbor thoughts of claiming what is mine."

His second wife had undoubtedly wished for his permanent absence, and her nephews were likely celebrating prematurely, but their plans had gone awry.

He needed to act swiftly before they could, to return decisively and catch them completely unprepared.

He would soon demonstrate the futility of their schemes, revealing their premature triumphs as a hollow victory.
