Chapter 428

"Elder brother, I wouldn't dare to do this unless it was absolutely necessary. It's my nephew—he didn't intend to let me go. Now that Wang Shoucheng is in, the Old Wang family has no restraint.

Isn't this just threatening me at will?

It's obvious they don't want me to have an easy time!

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence? I sent them to be casual laborers, and He Ming and Wang Qinghe saw them together? It's clear that he deliberately used He Ming!"

He Youde wiped away his tears and snot.

He Zhifei was also shocked. Is this... possible?

What is this about?

Not only was He Zhifei shocked, but even He Quan was stunned. Is this true or false? It sounds so real! If he hadn't brought the Old Wang family here, he would have believed it!

"Impossible! Elder brother would never use me. Third uncle, how can you be so malicious?" He Ming was furious at He Youde's words.

"He Ming, how old are you? What have you seen? Your elder brother is taking advantage of your emphasis on family, deliberately putting on a show for you! Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?

He did it on purpose, to make your father lose faith in our family, to send me to jail, so that all his grievances can be relieved.

He hates me!"

He Youde cried heart-wrenchingly.

It was hard not to believe.

Qi Yingying, who was standing nearby, was also half-convinced. Does the eldest son really have this ability?

Compared to Qi Yingying, He Zhifei was more inclined to believe. Because that child has never called him and Yingying parents, it proves that he holds resentment in his heart.

Could he really have done it on purpose?

"Dad, aren't you going to trust elder brother?" He Ming asked him blankly.

He Zhifei was also taken aback upon hearing this.

Yes, how could he not trust his own son?

Standing nearby, He Quan sensed an opportunity in this matter: "Zhifei, whether this matter was done by Qinghe, we can't say for sure. But Youde is truly wronged. Even if there is a mistake, it's the Old Wang family's fault.

But we can't afford to offend the Old Wang family now.

We can't let your brother really go to jail, can we?

Our family still has to live.

The past incidents were all due to Youde's confusion. He Ming and He Cheng, these two children, were mischievous when they were young, always pestering Youde to take them out to play.

You all saw it.

Could Youde, living in your household, still manage them?"

He Quan quickly twisted the facts, completely clearing He Youde of any blame.

He Zhifei frowned. He knew there was a problem here, but...

Seeing this, He Tian immediately prostrated himself before He Zhifei, and after several times, his head was bleeding.

He declared solemnly: "Uncle Zhifei, my father couldn't have done this. If my father really intentionally harmed your family, then I will definitely not be filial to him in the future.

May he be struck by lightning!"

"Stop making such vows," He Zhifei said, seeing He Tian so agitated, and reluctantly let go of his thoughts.

"Zhifei, Dad knows you care about your son. He is indeed outstanding, but he doesn't share the same loyalty as our family. After all, we are still a family behind closed doors.

Let's just act like today never happened, okay?

Let's keep the family as it was before."

He Quan felt that things could change in a heartbeat.

He Zhifei looked up at the people in the family, each with their own schemes.

But one thing was certain: his closest should be his own child.

He Zhifei thought about his son, who, although he never called him Dad, had always silently allowed him to do these things and often came over.

His wavering resolve suddenly hardened again.

"Even if there are issues in this matter, shouldn't Youde have told us in advance? I can't prove that this has nothing to do with my son, but I also can't believe that Youde is innocent.

Father, I can't keep He Tian. If you want to stay, stay. If not, you can leave with them."

He Zhifei's attitude towards expelling He Tian became very firm.

He Youde had led He Ming and He Cheng astray and made him so estranged from his eldest son. He Youde's child absolutely could not stay in the house.

Otherwise, Yingying wouldn't be able to explain it!

He Quan didn't expect that, even after all this, He Tian still couldn't stay.

He Tian's face also turned extremely ugly, and he hated Wang Qinghe to the core.

It was all because of this bastard. If it weren't for him, his status in his uncle's house wouldn't have become like this.

Now, not only did he lose his watch, but he was also being kicked out.

He was about to win the heart of the factory director's daughter and had arranged for her to visit next week. Now, where would they meet? Where would they go?

"He Ming, go help He Tian pack his things. Father, are you planning to stay?" He Zhifei looked at He Quan.

He Quan looked at his younger son, then at his elder son.

Almost without thinking, he made a decision: "You still acknowledge me as your father?"

"If you are willing to stay, the family won't lack a meal," He Zhifei said, his attitude not as respectful as it used to be. He was willing to keep the old man, but only because he regretted trying to kick him out just now.

It wasn't because of these reasons.

But He Tian had to go.

"Alright, Dad will stay," He Quan sighed.

If he could, he would have liked to leave with his younger son, but doing so would add a burden to his younger son's family.

Moreover, if he wasn’t here, who would keep them informed and connect the two families?

He Tian’s belongings were quickly packed by He Ming, and He Tian looked utterly dejected.

He turned reluctantly to his uncle and said, "Uncle, I..."

"You've been here for years, and now you're all grown up. It's time you went back to your own home," He Zhifei said firmly.

Seeing that there was no way to change the situation, He Tian reluctantly followed He Youde and left.

As soon as they stepped out of the courtyard gate, He Tian couldn’t help but vent his frustration at He Youde: "Dad, what kind of plan was this with Grandpa? Didn’t we agree that you’d help me deal with Wang Qinghe, this big trouble?

Is this your solution? You solved it, alright—by getting rid of me!"

After he said this, He Tian felt a bad vibe. He had been wondering why he had a bad feeling.

Last time, when his father confidently promised to help him deal with the child his uncle had lost, assuring him that he had nothing to worry about, he had felt this same unease.

Not long after his father made that promise, Wang Qinghe appeared in the provincial capital.

This time, his father made another promise, and now he was being kicked out.

He Youde felt a pang of bitterness: "Xiao Tian, listen to me. This was unexpected. I didn’t think we’d be seen."

"What’s the point of saying that now? If Wang Qinghe doesn’t vanish, I don’t see my life going back to normal," He Tian said, his eyes hardening with determination. He didn’t want to return to his old home!

Everything about home felt oppressive.

Even He Huihui is living a good life now—why should he go back to a life of hardship?

He Youde was startled but also felt that He Tian had a point.

"You’re right. Those idiots from Old Wang’s have messed everything up. They must be the ones to fix this!"
