Chapter: 3259
But now, after hearing Song Wan Ting's account, she realized that Mr. Ye's abilities were not just empty words, but had actual effects.
So, she couldn't help but sigh: "I was worried before that my husband would show people the true nature of his feng shui, which is a kind of underworld trickery, and feared that those people would come back to haunt him. Now, after hearing you say this, I feel relieved."
Song Wan Ting smiled and said sincerely: "Mr. Ye and those underworld swindlers are very different. Mr. Ye has real skills, which is why everyone respects him so much."
When it comes to this, Song Wan Ting's eyes flashed with a hint of curiosity and she said laughing: "Ah, Mrs. Ye, I've always been curious about Mr. Ye's background and how he acquired his skills, being so young and yet so skilled in so many esoteric arts."
Xu Huan replied seriously: "Don't hide it from you, Miss Song, my husband didn't have any formal training, and he lost his parents early on and became an orphan. He was raised at the Gold Mountain Orphanage from a young age, and I'm not sure what they taught him there."
Song Wan Ting quickly followed up: "Mrs. Ye, if Mr. Ye's skills were inherited from his parents before he lost them, it's possible that he could have learned these things at such a young age."
Xu Huan didn't know the implications of Song Wan Ting's words and responded naively: "But Mr. Ye was only eight years old when he entered the orphanage! Even if someone had divine talent, an eight-year-old couldn't possibly learn such profound skills."
"Eight years old?!" Song Wan Ting's heart skipped a beat as she blurted out: "Mr. Ye really started at the orphanage when he was eight?"
"Yes, that's what he told me many times before," Xu Huan confirmed firmly: "He said his parents met with an accident when he was eight years old and he had no other relatives left in the world, so he was taken in by the orphanage until he grew up."
Song Wan Ting recalled the various details analyzed by Naoki yesterday night and exclaimed: "Now it's clear that Mr. Ye entered the orphanage at around the same time as when Autumn Qi started searching for the White Horse Prince, which further proves that Mr. Ye is indeed the White Horse Prince!"
"This also proves that Mr. Ye is not from Gold Mountain but rather from Yanjing!"
"What's more important is that Autumn Qi is not just a celebrity, many people know her family background is extremely strong, ranking among the top five in the country, and she is the only child of Lang Zhong, the chairman of the Gu Family Group!"
"This shows that Mr. Ye was able to enter into an engagement with someone like Autumn Qi from a young age, which can only be evidence that Mr. Ye himself comes from a noble background!"
"As far as domestic circumstances are concerned, there aren't many families that can match the Gu family. Within Yanjing's range, such families are even fewer. It's only Su and Ye families......"
Thinking of this, Song Wan Ting's heart skipped a beat, and her doubts gradually cleared: "Ye family?! Master Ye?! Could it be......"
It was then that Song Wan Ting realized the situation wasn't quite right. All these clues had finally pieced together, and they all fit with Ye Chen. Ye Chen's surname seemed to be the final proof that tied everything together, making her no longer have any doubts about her conjecture.
She thought to herself: "So it seems Master Ye must be the young master of Yanjing's Ye family. The Ye family must have been very close to the Gu family back then, and they had already arranged for their children to get married when they were still young. However, something unexpected happened with Master Ye, causing him to fall into a state of being an orphan in Gold Mountain."
Thinking about this, her entire person was filled with mixed emotions.
In the past, she thought Ye Chen was someone who rose from humble beginnings but achieved success through his own efforts. It was based on this point that she had always felt she wasn't inferior to him, at least in terms of social status and background.
Song Wan Ting didn't have any contempt for Ye Chen. She was just using this perspective to motivate herself, making her feel that she too could be on the same level as Ye Chen.
But now she only knew that her background not only wasn't better than Ye Chen's, but was actually a whopping 10,000 li worse.
Yanjing Ye's family as a whole has a strength that surpasses Song's family by tenfold, not to mention!
If the base is small, tenfold may not seem like a big gap, but if the base is large enough, this gap is simply frightening.
To illustrate, imagine one child holding one lollipop and another child holding ten. The tenfold difference is not significant; parents can just take out a few coins to help children catch up.
But if someone's home has one apartment in the local area while another person has ten apartments, this gap becomes enormous and many people cannot overcome it. JrNovels.com
