False Court

Chapter 564 A Sweet Treat

Chapter 133 Inconvenient to Return

Ye Jian said in disbelief, "How is that possible? Could it be that the higher-ups have abandoned us?"

"It's not that the higher-ups abandoned us, but Wang Hai, who was originally in charge of Zone Z, is not participating in this operation. The person in charge has been replaced."

Ye Quan said in a cold voice.

"How is that possible? Who could take Wang Hai's place? Wang Hai is a GT department general, a favorite of Council Speaker Long Ming, and his strength is so strong, his prestige in the military is extremely high. More importantly, he is a candidate for the Federation's future general. Although the position of Federation General has not yet been established, one can imagine its importance. How could such a top-tier existence be replaced?"

Ye Tian didn't believe it no matter what he heard; it was too outrageous.

"I also think it's ridiculous, but this is reality. I'll tell you who took over: it's Su Mo. Isn't it laughable that you easily let such an important person go and even offended him!"

Ye Quan directly rebuked.

The crowd present was in an uproar, and even Ye Wuhen and the others didn't know what to say.

They never imagined that Su Mo would take over; it was simply unbelievable.

At this time, an elder of the Ye family spoke up, "Old Patriarch, don't be angry. Being angry is useless. The top priority now is to find a solution. I heard that Su Mo has a particularly good relationship with your granddaughter, Ye Xue. Didn't we just send someone to invite Ye Xue back recently?"

Ye Tian's expression slightly darkened upon hearing this, but he didn't say anything.

"How is the situation? When will Ye Xue return?"

Ye Quan asked coldly.

Ye Jian braced himself and said, "Father, we were unable to persuade Ye Xue."

"You can't even handle this small matter; what are you good for?"

Ye Quan directly scolded.

At this moment, Ye Wei couldn't help but stand up and say, "Grandpa, we really said all the nice things we could, but Ye Xue is just stubborn. My elder brother even lowered his head to explain to her, but she was completely unmoved and didn't treat us like family at all."

"Grandpa, we really tried our best, but Ye Xue is really not that easy to persuade."

Ye Wuhen said helplessly.

"Yes, Ye Xue really didn't give us any face."

......

Many of the younger generation present spoke up one after another.

Ye Jian also braced himself and said to Ye Quan, "Father, these emotional knots can't be untied in a day or two."

"Hmph, look at what you've done! You've driven away the two most important people!"

Ye Quan scolded angrily, hitting the floor with his cane.

Everyone fell silent, and all lowered their heads.

At this time, an uncle-elder smoothed things over with a smile, "Don't be angry, since things have already happened, we still have to find a way to solve them. I think whoever tied the knot should untie it."

"Second Uncle, what do you mean by that?"

Ye Tian suddenly raised his head and looked at the uncle-elder in front of him.

"I don't mean anything else. Ye Xue is your daughter, isn't she? You, as a father, drove your daughter away. Now, the only one who can invite her back is you."

The uncle-elder said with a smile.

"I can't do that."

Ye Tian directly rejected the idea.

"You have to do it even if you can't. As the leader of the new generation of the Ye family, you don't even have this much responsibility? No wonder the Ye family has been having problems under your leadership."

Ye Quan said without any room for doubt.

Ye Tian was also full of helplessness; these old guys were really shameless to the extreme.

They were the ones who didn't think highly of Ye Xue in the first place, they were the ones who exerted pressure in secret, and they were the ones who told him to deprive Ye Xue of everything.

The fact that Ye Xue was forced away was orchestrated by his father from beginning to end, but now it was as if he had nothing to do with it.

When he repeatedly refused to act according to their wishes, constantly mediating in the middle, trying to smooth things over, wasn't it his father who refused to let it go?

It was simply because he felt that Ye Xue's mother's status was humble, worthless, and not worthy of entering his Ye family, that he made things difficult for Ye Xue in every possible way.

In addition, Qian Chengxue had always wanted to get a formal status for her mother, and after careful consideration, he finally made up his mind to take this opportunity to fulfill Qian Chengxue's wish, and by the way, send her away from the family, this place of trouble.

Now they actually wanted him to lower his head and beg Ye Xue to come back; there was no way he would agree.

But the problem was, he couldn't refuse now; his father had made it very clear.

Ye Tian finally compromised and replied.

"I understand. I will try my best, but I can't guarantee whether she will come back or not. But even if she doesn't come back, I will try my best to get her to help plead with Su Mo."

Seeing Ye Tian relent, Ye Quan's expression gradually softened. The uncles behind him all showed a hint of a smile on their faces; their goal had been achieved.

"Meeting adjourned!"

------------------------------------------------

Inside a house, Su Mo was sleeping soundly.

Noisy sounds kept reaching Su Mo's ears.

Su Mo tossed and turned, but it was still noisy. Finally, he opened his eyes and sat up.

He had a helpless expression on his face. What the heck was going on? Why was it so noisy outside?

Su Mo got out of bed, opened the door, and walked to the living room.

As a result, he saw Li Fang, Zou Wei, and Lin Yixuan acting like thieves, bracing themselves against the front door.

"What are you guys doing?"

"Su Mo, something's happened. There's a bunch of people outside who want to see you."

Li Fang quickly said.

"Who are they?"

"Too many, most of them we don't recognize."

"If you don't recognize them, just chase them away."

Su Mo asked in confusion.

Li Fang and the others shook their heads like rattles.

"We can't."

"Why not?"

"Why don't you take a look for yourself?"

Lin Yixuan swallowed and replied; he had never seen this kind of situation in his life.

Su Mo walked to the door with confusion and looked outside through the electronic peephole. He was immediately dumbfounded.

A group of officers in different military uniforms were gathered outside. Judging from the insignias on their uniforms, there were officers from the First Legion, the Second Legion, the Third Legion, and even the GT department.

Each of them was carrying gifts in their hands.

"Don't tell them I'm here."

Su Mo couldn't help but frown. As he spoke, he ran towards Lin Yixuan's room.

"Hey, Su Mo, where are you going?"

"I'm going to avoid the storm first. I'll leave this to you guys."

Su Mo rushed into Lin Yixuan's room, opened the window, and with a quick hand and eye, he directly flipped over and jumped down silently.

Then, Su Mo took off and ran. He wouldn't be able to go back to the dormitory for the time being.

It was at this moment that Su Mo realized the severity of the situation. He seemed to have underestimated his identity as a team leader, as well as this exploration mission.

Not long after, Su Mo arrived at Qian Chengxue's house in the upper district.

He raised his hand to knock on the door, but suddenly glanced at the clothes he was wearing, and was a little embarrassed.

Oh crap, he ran too fast just now and only grabbed his phone. He didn't even change his clothes, and he was still wearing pajamas.

It didn't seem like a good image. Oh well, he would just have to risk it.

Su Mo didn't care so much, so he knocked on the door.

The door was quickly opened.

Qian Chengxue looked at Su Mo in his pajamas, also with a look of surprise.

"Su Mo? What's wrong?"

"Cough, well, my dorm is being besieged. Can I take refuge here for a while?"

Su Mo said with a wry smile.

After hearing this, Qian Chengxue's fair face showed a hint of a smile.

"Gift-givers?"

"That's right, and not just ordinary people coming to give gifts."

Su Mo's head hurt just thinking about it.

"Come in first. Have you eaten?"

"No."

"Then wait for me, I'll get you some breakfast."

Qian Chengxue said gently.

"Okay."

Su Mo walked to the dining table and sat down.

Soon, Qian Chengxue brought Su Mo a plate of bread slices, a bottle of blueberry jam, and a large glass of milk.

"Thank you, I won't be polite."

Su Mo started eating.

Qian Chengxue sat on the side, propping her chin with her right hand, quietly watching Su Mo eat.
