Chapter: 2779

"As he spoke, he couldn't help but sigh: 'It's just that America and China are too far apart. If I'm not mistaken, after your mother got married and returned to the country, she only saw me three times, with you along, before her accident in Jinling......'"

"He then said, still looking serious: 'Although my wife and I didn't see each other often, our feelings remained very deep. When your mother was alive, we considered her a dear friend.'"

"Immediately after, he looked solemn again and said: 'Sometimes, the world of adults is like this - although everyone has a very good relationship, due to distance and each having their own life, it's hard for them to meet even once every three or five years.'"

"As he listened, a deep sadness stirred within him."

"Those people around his parents had extremely high praise for them, but unfortunately, he knew very little about their lives as individuals."

"In fact, until his parents passed away, he was just a second-grader who had entered elementary school."

"At that age, children's perspectives on issues and the world were very simple and superficial. He only knew that his parents loved him very much, but didn't know what kind of people they really were."

"Sometimes, he envied Autumn Rui's father, Lang Zhong."

"Because he had known his own father for a longer time than himself."

"He understood his father better too."

"Now, he is also envious of He Yuanjiang."

"Because he thinks that He Yuanjiang understands his mother even better than him does."

"When he saw Leaf Chen look dejected, he couldn't help but go up and pat his shoulder to comfort him: 'It's been so long since it happened, don't let it continue to sadden you. Your mother's life in her early twenties was indeed too brilliant, we used to say that she must have been lacking something from God, which is why she left us so soon.'"

"Now, he lightly nodded his head."

"As for parents, he felt regretful and hurt, most regrettable was that as their child, he lacked a sufficient understanding of their lives."

"He Yuanjiang smiled and said: 'Let's talk about you. How did you become the chairman of the Tianhe Group? Didn't you go back to the Ye family?'"

"Ye Cen bitterly smiled and said: 'I'm not hiding it. I lived in Jinling for nearly 20 years, serving as a son-in-law at Shao's house, and it wasn't until last year that the Ye family found me.'"

"As for the Tianhe Group, it was also a gift from them, aside from the group, they gave me 10 billion yuan as compensation. However, these things mean little to me, I haven't touched a single penny of the Tianhe Group's money up till now, and as for that 1 billion, I initially only used it to pay off medical bills and buy my wife a car and a necklace, and then didn't spend any more.'"

"Talking about this, Ye Cen let out a sigh and continued: 'But these things don't matter. Although I don't take the Ye family's money by force, I also can't deny it. If the Ye family hadn't given me these, I might still be a useless son-in-law who is despised by everyone.'"

"He Yuanjiang sighed and said: 'You really have suffered a lot over the years. Actually, what I'm saying is that if your parents were alive today, you would definitely be the richest person in this world, and I also heard some stories about your father from others. Back then, the Ye family relied on your parents to make it big, just to get to where they are today.'"

"I can responsibly say that the Ye family's assets now have at least 50% of their value owed to your parents' contributions, while the Ye family gave you much less than even one-tenth of their assets. Ultimately, they gave you too little!'"

"Ye Cen bitterly smiled and shook his head: 'These things don't matter. Actually, I'm more hoping to rely on myself to create my own path - a new world, because I still don't know whether your parents' death has any connection with the Ye family, so I want to accumulate enough strength to surpass the Ye family in all aspects, even surpassing the Su family. That way, when the time comes and we find out who killed our parents, I'll have enough bargaining power to make them pay.'"

"He Yuanjiang suddenly realized and blurted out: 'So you're just trying to establish a shipping company?'"

"Ah." Ye Cen nodded and said, "I don't know how much you understand about the Su family. Back then, the Su family and my father were always at odds with each other. The Su family even set up a anti-leaf alliance, uniting many other families to jointly counter my father, so the Su family is also an enemy in my eyes. Now that the Su family's ocean shipping business has come to a standstill, I think it's the perfect opportunity for me to take advantage of the situation.

As he spoke, Ye Cen added, "I originally wanted Winter Snow to take over this business, but he told me that doing this kind of business requires a very deep understanding of international trade and global main trade countries' laws, regulations, taxes, and policies. He felt he couldn't handle it, so he recommended you to me. JrNovels.com
