Chapter 619: Suspicion

As long as his father redirected this dissatisfaction to Leng Qirui, Ye Hai would be fine.

However, Ye Hai was thoroughly mistaken this time.

Ever since Zhong Nuannuan warned Leng Jinpeng, Leng Jinpeng started to pay close attention to Ye Hai. Even if Leng Qirui did not have any evidence this time, Leng Jinpeng would have some suspicion on Ye Hai first.

Not to mention the solid evidence that they had in this matter.

After Ye Hai finished speaking, he realized that Leng Qirui, who would usually stomp and leap around in anger, was actually extremely calm today. Leng Qirui's unusual coolheadedness surprised Ye Hai.

"Ye Hai, you've been in our family for 15 years. I don't think I've ever mistreated you all this while. You have everything that Lil Rui has. You've received all the education that Lil Rui received. You can even say that I treat you like my own son. Yet, why do you hate Lil Rui so much? Do you hate him that much that you want him dead?"

Leng Jinpeng's words sounded like a fatal disaster to Ye Hai.

That was because his wings were not strong enough yet for Ye Hai to leave Leng Jinpeng and the Leng family. To him, Leng Jinpeng was like a mountain, or even his sky.

Without Leng Jinpeng, he was nothing.

Therefore, when Ye Hai heard Leng Jinpeng's words, he was utterly dumbstruck and his face paled.

The corners of his lips twitched as he said in a trembling voice, "Dad... Dad, why would you say that?"

"You understand what I just said perfectly, don't you?"

Leng Jinpeng did not miss the look of guilt that flashed across Ye Hai's face alongside the hurt expression that he donned on.

This made Leng Jinpeng even angrier.

Without Zhong Nuannuan, without Selina, he might have lost his son.

Ye Hai did not understand. "What did I do? Just because I did not step forward when there were ten armed criminals? Just because I did not exchange my life for Lil Rui's?"

The more Ye Hai spoke, the more aggrieved he became. He started to wail.

"I've always admired and respected you. Not only do I treat you as my biological father, but you're also my idol and my everything. I've always cherished everything that you've given me. Even though Lil Rui is sometimes insensible and treats me like an outsider, scolding me and beating me up, I really treat him like my own younger brother.

"Could it be that because you've raised me, I should use my own body to block the dagger for Lil Rui even though I know I'm no match for the criminal? Or do you think that just because my father saved your life back then, so as his son, I have to save Lil Rui's life? Isn't our family your benefactor?"

"Hehe." Leng Qirui was amused by Ye Hai.

Leng Jinpeng did not look like he was taking it too well either.

Standing on the side, Station Chief Wang and the police officers could not help but look at Ye Hai with disdain too.

If they did not see the video Leng Qirui gave them beforehand, they would have really believed Ye Hai.

After all, people tended to sympathize with the weak.

After listening to Ye Hai's narration, they might really believe that Ye Hai was a child who had been raised by Leng Jinpeng but had been abused. Or rather, a child who had been wronged his entire life.

However, just by looking at the screen, one could tell that this was an ingrate under a sheep's skin!

"There's one thing that I haven't told you because I don't want you to feel burdened. But since you think your father is my benefactor..."
