Chapter: 3371

After all, this was a grand ceremony that the Ye family only held every 12 years. If himself and the Ye family were sworn enemies, then it would be natural for him to choose this day to launch an attack against the Ye family.

So, he asked Chen Zhonglei: "Wan Pò Jun has never asked you to make any requests, such as arriving in Yanjing before a certain day."

Chen Zhonglei nodded repeatedly and said: "He did ask me to arrive in Yanjing before April 3rd."

"April 3rd..." Ye Chen's eyes narrowed slightly, with a cold tone saying: "April 5th is Qingming Festival. According to what you're saying, this Wan Pò Jun must be planning something on that day."

Chen Zhonglei spoke respectfully: "What specific plans Wan Pò Jun has, I'm not quite clear about it."

Ye Chen nodded and immediately asked Hamid for a satellite phone and dialed Tang Sihai.

After one ring, Tang Sihai opened his mouth to ask: "Hello, please tell me who's calling?"

Ye Chen said: "Tang butler, it's me, Ye Chen."

"Master!" Tang Sihai was surprised to ask: "How did you use an overseas phone to call? Oh, I heard that Grandpa's coordinated aircraft is leaving again. Shouldn't that be sending you to the Middle East?"

"Yes." Ye Chen began speaking: "Tang butler, I'm calling to consult with you about something."

Tang Sihai hurriedly said: "Master, please ask away. I'll answer all your questions and say everything without reserve!"

Ye Chen asked him: "Have you heard about someone called Wan Pao Jun?"

"Wan Pao Jun?" Tang Sihai thought for a moment, then said: "Young master, I don't think I've ever heard of him."

Wan Pao Jun's father, Wan Lian Cheng, was not well-known in Yan City, but he did have a reputation as a loyal dog following Su Shou Dao. Moreover, when Wan Lian Cheng met his end, his son Wan Pao Jun was still just a child, so few people knew about his situation.

Ye Chen asked him again: "Were there any conflicts or disputes between our family and the surname Wan 10 to 20 years ago?"

"The surname Wan?" Tang Sihai thought for a moment, then said: "Yes! There was someone called Wan Lian Cheng who worked for Su Shou Dao. He took it upon himself to take the lead and clashed with your father over some issues. Later, he lost everything in the futures market and eventually jumped to his death, along with his wife who also took her own life..."

"This incident weighed heavily on your father at the time, even though Wan Lian Cheng had provoked him first and your father had defeated him fairly in the futures market. But your father still felt a sense of responsibility for Wan Lian Cheng's death..."

"As for it," Ye Chen heard Tang Sihai's words and couldn't help but furrow his brow, asking: "If it was indeed Wan Lian Cheng who took the initiative to provoke my father and my father defeated him fairly, why should he take his own life and drag his wife along with him? And what does this have to do with my father?"

Saying so, Ye Chen firmly said: "His death, my father has no responsibility at all! As for his wife's death, it has nothing to do with my father either! If not for Wan Lian Cheng's extreme cowardice and choosing to end his own life, his wife wouldn't have followed him in her own demise. So, his wife's death should be attributed to him alone! What does this have to do with my father?"

Tang Sihai sighed and said, "Young master, your father has always been a just and virtuous person. Many times, he sets his own standards higher than moral expectations."

As he spoke, he couldn't help but ask, "What made you ask about this?"

Ye Chen replied casually, "Nothing much, I just met a Chinese person overseas who happened to know some things about the Wan family."

As Ye Chen spoke again, he asked, "By the way, do you know what's going on with the Wan family now?"

Tang Sihai said, "The Wan family has already gone bankrupt. After Wan Lian Cheng and his wife died, the Wanlong Group also went into liquidation, not only without any assets left but also owed a huge debt. Many friends avoided them and cut off ties."

As Tang Sihai spoke again, he said, "Yes, at that time, Wan Lian Cheng had a son who was probably around your age or slightly older. After his mother took her own life, your father considered taking him in but couldn't find him. The Wan family's relatives knew they had failed, so they all kept their distance. As a result, the Wan family basically came to an end. If not for you asking just now, I would have forgotten about them after many years." JrNovels.com
