Chapter 112: Now, I Am Truly the Young Master of the Ye Family

With Ye Tianlin personally confirming the truth, Su Weimin finally had a moment of profound realization.

If it weren't for the weight of his true identity, how could the entire Su family, with their usual character, ever admit their faults so readily? Ancestors speaking in dreams? Thinking back on it now, that was pure nonsense—a pathetic and clumsy excuse! Most ridiculous of all was that he had actually believed it, thinking it was a genuine occurrence.

In that instant, all the twists and turns that had occurred previously echoed in Su Weimin’s mind, clicking into place. The answer was undeniably true; everything had finally come to light. As this realization hit him, Su Weimin was shocked to his core, nearly suffering a heart attack. After all his deep contemplation, he never could have imagined that the son-in-law he had repeatedly dismissed as a good-for-nothing was actually the renowned Young Master of the Ye family. It was truly earth-shattering!

At this very moment, Su Weimin finally understood that every action Ye Tianlin had taken previously had been the most correct course of action. In fact, Ye Tianlin was the one who had contributed the most to the family, yet Su Weimin had been too blind to understand, mistakenly believing that Ye Tianlin was doing nothing but foolish things. In reality, he was the fool, constantly belittling Ye Tianlin, acting even more self-righteous and short-sighted than Su Yicai.

"I..." Su Weimin’s face turned from pale to purple. He wished he could find a rope and hang himself, cursing his own blindness in his heart.

Just as Su Weimin stood there, his expression complex and his heart filled with regret, unable to find a way to save face in front of everyone, Ye Tianlin raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, smiling. "Dad, it doesn't really matter. It’s not too late for you to know now, and regardless of anything, you are still my father."

"You... you really don't blame me?" Su Weimin held his breath.

Ye Tianlin shook his head. "Of course I don't blame you. You are my father-in-law, after all. Besides, you’ve suffered quite a bit of trouble because of me over the years. Since you know the truth now, just wait to enjoy the good life!"

Hearing this, Su Weimin’s heart blossomed with joy. He was instantly beaming, unable to contain his triumphant laughter. He threw an arm around Ye Tianlin’s neck and exclaimed, "Hahaha! You truly are a wonderful son-in-law! My life has been worth it; I’ve finally made it to the top!"

"Yes, yes! This is just too exhilarating! To think that after all this chaos, Tianlin was the real deal all along. I never even dreamed that I, Gao Yulan, would one day become the mother-in-law of the Ye family's Young Master!" Gao Yulan was so thrilled she felt like jumping into the air.

Seeing this scene, the surrounding relatives rushed forward to offer their congratulations, as if this were not the Elder Su’s birthday celebration, but a coming-out party for the couple.

Old Master Su, seeing this, did not hesitate to say, "Everything in the past was our fault. We have seen the light now, and we hope that, taking this opportunity, you will return to the Su family and move back into the villa. There is no need to rent a place outside anymore!"

"Exactly, exactly! A family should be united and harmonious!" Su Zhengjun nodded like a woodpecker.

"No, no! If we move, we’re moving into the Bishuiwan Villa. That was a betrothal gift from my wonderful son-in-law, after all. It shouldn't be left empty to go to waste," Su Weimin said, acting extremely smug.

"Wait, where did the betrothal gift end up?" Gao Yulan finally realized and turned to look at Ye Tianlin.

Ye Tianlin curled his lips into a smile, took the access card and key from his pocket, and said nonchalantly, "I already had people move the betrothal gift from there to the Bishuiwan Villa. If you like, you can take some time to visit and take a look another day."

"Oh my heaven! So this access card and key really were for the Bishuiwan Villa? When I was at the hospital, I actually threw them into the trash can! I almost wasted such a treasure!" Su Weimin snatched the key, holding it as if it were a precious gem, his face unable to hide his glee as he began to boast wildly.

"So that betrothal gift has been returned to its rightful owners. Once Rulan is discharged, we will move in immediately and enjoy ourselves," Gao Yulan said, laughing with pure ecstasy.

Old Master Su looked awkward but forced a smile. "Regardless, the Su family hopes you can let bygones be bygones. We certainly don't want any benefits from you; we just want to cherish our family bond!"

"That’s right, that’s right! We are sincere; we aren't looking for favors, so please don't misunderstand," Su Yicai chimed in.

Su Weimin puffed out his chest, knowing full well that this rhetoric could only fool a toddler. If the Su family didn't want any benefits, then the sun would have to rise in the west. However, with so many people watching, he couldn't be bothered to expose them. After all, with his status established, he would not only be rising in the world, but the Su family would also have to act according to his wishes and would never dare to step out of line again.

Su Weimin adjusted his collar and said, "In light of your attitude, I will reluctantly give you a chance!"

Instantly, the entire Su family breathed a collective sigh of relief. Old Master Su, Su Zhengjun, and Su Yicai all swarmed around them, suddenly relegated to supporting roles, constantly fawning over them to curry favor.

Only Su Yixue stood to the side, staring blankly at the scene. She felt a deep sense of bitterness, her palms squeezed so hard by her fingernails that they were nearly bleeding with jealousy.

Before Su Yixue could even speak, Su Weimin’s eyes fell upon her. "Su Yixue, honestly! You caused such a huge misunderstanding, putting our whole family through so much trouble. You kept insisting your future husband was the Ye family’s Young Master, and after all that, it turns out it wasn't him at all!"

"Exactly! You are just too self-important!" Gao Yulan added, crossing her arms.

"This was indeed my mistake. Please don't blame me... just give me a chance..." Su Yixue’s face turned ashen; she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

Su Weimin coughed a few times, feigning a magnanimous gesture. "Fine, I am an elder, after all, so I won't hold it against you too much. Just remember to know your place from now on."

As he spoke, Su Weimin tilted his head back and laughed heartily. "Hahaha! Heaven has finally opened its eyes! I, Su Weimin, have finally held my head high. My wonderful son-in-law... is actually the Young Master of the Ye family!"

Just at that moment, an untimely voice suddenly rang out from the villa entrance.

"It’s just a pity that you’ve realized it too late. He is no longer the high and mighty Young Master of the Ye family, but a stray dog to be trampled upon."

"Because, as of now, I am the Young Master of the Ye family!"

Following the direction of the voice, everyone turned to look. The person who had arrived was none other than Ye Tiancheng!
