Chapter 1327: Chapter 1327: Feeling Left Out—Why Was I Forgotten?
After Mr. Ye calmed his emotions, he also clarified the matter.
He understood that he had perhaps given them too much leeway. It seemed that after he proposed divorce, that woman started making her moves.
There’s no need to think too hard; she likely wanted to use the two children as pawns to make him compromise.
He guessed correctly. In fact, the stepmother of the Ye Family, upon learning that the old man wanted a divorce, hastily contacted people inland, telling them to find a way to kidnap the two children as her last resort.
However, she chose the wrong person. That person got tied up with family issues, causing delays until now.
Without receiving any news from overseas, believing it wouldn’t delay matters there, he waited until he found someone and understood their daily routine before finally putting the plan into motion.
But what he didn’t know was that after the divorce, the stepmother accidentally fell down the stairs in anger and is still in a coma, cutting off contact with him.
He couldn’t have imagined that the two people he painstakingly selected would end up encountering the variable of Xinyan and He Jinxuan.
After discussing the two children’s affairs, Mr. Ye then remembered he brought his son’s brother-in-law Shen Ningchuan back with him: "Sili, Siyan, quickly see who this is?"
He stood up and pulled the man next to him over: "Quickly call him uncle; this is your uncle Shen Ningchuan."
Then, he looked at his son Liyan: "Liyan, this is Ninghui’s older brother, Ningchuan, your brother-in-law."
Shen Ningchuan at this moment removed the sunglasses from his face. He had had some eye issues recently and the doctor advised him to avoid light exposure. Eager to return home to his roots, he had no choice but to wear sunglasses.
Ye Liyan, seeing Shen Ningchuan’s resemblance, realized this was indeed his brother-in-law because Ninghui looked so much like their father: "Big Brother, I am Liyan, Ninghui’s husband."
With this, he pulled over his two still-stunned sons: "Call him uncle."
The two little ones looked up at Shen Ningchuan, with Ye Siyan speaking first: "Are you really our uncle?"
Shen Ningchuan had a few childhood memories, but not many. Looking at the two young ones who had just experienced danger, he felt a close connection and thought: Perhaps this is what familial bonding feels like.
He crouched down to meet the children’s eyes: "Yes, I am your uncle Shen Ningchuan."
Ye Sili and Ye Siyan, having heard about him from their father and cousins, accepted this well and exclaimed happily: "Uncle."
Ye Siyan, always familiar, reached out and hugged Shen Ningchuan’s neck, causing the grown man’s eyes to fill with tears: "Ah, good children."
He Jinxuan noticed many onlookers around and stepped forward: "It’s inconvenient to talk here. Let’s leave first."
Only then did Shen Ningchuan release the kids and stand up.
Mr. Ye timely introduced: "Ningchuan, this is He Jinxuan, your mother’s cousin, your cousin, who lived with them for a few years."
Shen Ningchuan nodded at He Jinxuan: "Hello, cousin."
He Jinxuan smiled and responded: "Cousin."
While greeting, he pulled Xinyan over: "Cousin, this is my wife, Han Xinyan."
Ye Liyan had been watching their interaction the whole time, feeling inexplicably wronged—how did they forget me?
The group had just returned to the Ye Mansion when they received news from the police. With information provided by Xinyan and He Jinxuan, and testimonies from the two individuals, they quickly caught the mastermind.
The person, seeing that things were falling apart and having received no contact from overseas, knew he couldn’t escape taking the fall and, to hasten leniency, revealed everything in detail.
Mr. Ye was mentally prepared beforehand, so when he got the call, he had only one request—for severe punishment.
Mr. Ye immediately contacted his overseas lawyer, taking his recently divorced former stepwife to court.
While he was on the phone, Shen Ningchuan, having once again confirmed from He Jinxuan that he was indeed from the Shen Family, also learned about the family’s situation since he went missing.
Having already heard about his parents and sister from Mr. Ye, hearing it again brought a sharp pain to his chest and deepened his hatred for his aunt. If she hadn’t deliberately lost him, perhaps their family would not have met such an end.
He hoarsely said: "Jinxuan, I want to visit the Shen Family tomorrow. Can you accompany me?"
The cousin in front of him was the one most familiar with the family’s matters.
He Jinxuan nodded: "Okay."
Seeing He Jinxuan agree, his low voice came again: "I want to pay respects to my parents and sister."
He Jinxuan had anticipated this and had prepared the necessary offerings: "We can go anytime."
Shen Ningchuan looked grateful: "Jinxuan, thank you."
He Jinxuan waved it off: "No need to thank me. If not for our aunt and uncle, I wouldn’t be who I am today."
