Chapter 1166 - There’s A Problem, There Are More Problems

Ye Jian’s voice pierced right into their ears. The stinging coldness in her voice spread to all corners of the room. It stabbed into Ye Zhixiang’s body like thin needles. She had nowhere to hide.

Those two black and white photos… No, she didn’t want to see them! She didn’t want to see them!

“What does your university entrance examination have to do with me? You wicked girl, let go! Ah! It hurts! Let go! Let me go!” The louder she screamed, the harder Ye Jian grabbed her. Ye Jian was able to hold heavy weapons with her hands so her grip was not very light. She just needed to exert a little force and the office would be filled with Ye Zhixiang’s screams of pain.

It hurts, it’s painful, it was too painful. It felt as though her bones had shattered.

Her scream caused Grandma Ye’s face to twitch slightly. She scolded, “Why are you still screaming? How old are you? Shut up!”

Ye Zhixiang was in pain and she was agitated. It was impossible for her to keep quiet. She refuted, “This wicked girl is really strong. I think my bones are going to break. Mom, hurry up and pull her away!”

Listen, was this something an adult should say? She was almost 40 years old but she lost to a young lady. She was too impatient!

Grandma Ye’s eyelids drooped from old age and formed a triangle over her eyes. A ruthless gaze flashed past her eyes. When she looked up again, tears were shimmering in them. “Child, don’t scare your aunt. Keep your parents’ photos quickly.”

“Did you hear that, you wicked girl? Hurry up and let go!” Why did she have to take out the photos of those short-lived people? Ye Zhixiang didn’t even dare to look at them. She kept turning her head and tried her best to pull her hand out.

She didn’t manage to free herself the first time. Neither did she succeed the second time. Ye Zhixiang screamed louder. “Ye Jian, what do you want? She’s trying to kill me! Someone wants to kill me! Help, someone please help!”

Her voice was extremely shrill and there was an unknown fear in them. She seemed… very frightened of Ye Jian’s parents’ photos.

Grandma Ye was really scared too. She wasn’t just scared. There was nervousness in both their eyes too. They kept glancing at Ye Jian as though they were trying to find something from her expression.

Ye Jian’s gaze turned dark. Something’s wrong. There was something wrong!

Just now, she got furious when Grandma Ye showed no signs of repentance so she didn’t notice if there were any unusual reactions from the mother and daughter when she took out the photos… Ye Jian retracted her gaze and immediately recalled what happened a moment ago. The scenes flashed past her mind, frame by frame. Very soon, it paused at that second.

Grandma Ye’s pupils constricted and her expression became tense immediately. Then, her lips started trembling slightly and she shifted her gaze away hurriedly.

As for her hand… That’s right, when she held her hands tightly, there was nervousness in her expression. Ye Jian noticed it even though Grandma Ye tried to hide it.

What was she nervous about?

Ye Zhixiang was completely scared from beginning to end. She didn’t dare to face it but when Ye Jian said ‘Grandma Ye, you should be sorry to my father. If you didn’t force my father to go out and earn money, he wouldn’t have died’… There was a hint of relief on their faces!

This wasn’t right, something was amiss! Why were they relieved?

When she mentioned that her father wasn’t Grandma Ye’s son, Grandma Ye’s face turned pale and she started feeling scared again. She seemed to be feeling guilty too.

Fear, panic, relief, guilt… She understood why they were frightened, panicked, and guilty. But, why were they relieved?
