Chapter 1818: Impostor

Ye Jun felt something was amiss and took the phone. Chen Nian instinctively wanted to snatch it back but seeing her son’s sudden change in expression, she pretended to sigh, “This morning, Mr. Bo’s grandmother came to say she disapproved of the wedding. Your grandmother got too anxious. She cares about Jiaojiao and wanted to find out what’s going on.”

Ye Jun had just seen Bo Yanching and Nan Jiaojiao tonight. They seemed very much in love, with no sign of reluctance.

What’s more, who among the Bo family would dare to actually oppose Bo Yanching? He could fully control his own marriage affairs.

It’s likely the Ye family was afraid the wedding might be called off, and they wouldn’t be able to rely on the Bo family anymore, hence the tension.

“Mr. Bo’s grandmother? What does she look like?”

“Wearing an ink-colored cheongsam, with her hair pinned up. She looked young; she probably had white hair at the temples but had dyed it black. On the surface, she didn’t look like someone of grandma’s generation,” Chen Nian continued to recall, “though her temper wasn’t great, a bit aggressive. She came in with bodyguards directly.”

Ye Jun’s eyebrows shifted, “She came in by herself, without assistance?”

Chen Nian found it odd, “She’s healthy and able, why would she need assistance?”

Ye Jun’s face darkened, “Mr. Bo’s grandmother is not this age, and she has a leg disability. Even when walking, she uses a cane.”

“Ah?”

Chen Nian’s eyes flickered, “An impostor?”

Ye Jun couldn’t pinpoint it, but everything seemed strange.

He took the phone inside. In the hall, the two elders hadn’t gone to sleep yet. Ye Congjie was also there, holding a teacup. Seeing Ye Jun come in, she acknowledged him with a gesture.

“I’m going to sleep first.”

Ye Congjie stood up and went upstairs.

Su Rong furrowed her brows slightly, words of reprimand on her lips, but she swallowed them. She was always reluctant to scold her youngest daughter. Even when the family was worried, Ye Congjie still seemed to have the mind to sleep. It displeased her, but in front of family members, she swallowed her criticism.

Turning to Ye Jun, her face was all smiles, “Juann is back. Why so late today?”

“I went to see Jiaojiao.”

Old Master Ye suddenly looked up.

Su Rong almost couldn’t sit still, clutching the armrest to steady her outward calmness, “Just Jiaojiao alone?”

“And Mr. Bo, they came together.”

Su Rong’s expression grew even more excited, “What happened? Tell your grandma about it.”

Ye Jun’s expression didn’t change, his voice unexpectedly tinged with a hint of coldness, “No need to inquire. Jiaojiao is indeed with Mr. Bo. Since she informed me, she had no intention of hiding it. She has her own life. If she’s unwilling, it’s fine for everyone to go their own way, no need to pry into her life.”

He placed the phone by Su Rong’s side, displaying dozens of call records.

Su Rong’s face fell slightly, “What kind of talk is that? No matter what, Jiaojiao is our biological Ye family. As her grandmother, shouldn’t I be concerned about her marriage?”

“She doesn’t need it.”

Ye Jun had no intention of saving face; with his uncle and aunt not at home, given grandmother’s nature, she must have notified them long ago. They didn’t come, and her biological parents were indifferent as well. If Ye Jun had repeatedly tried to repair family ties only to be rebuffed, he wouldn’t draw close again either.

“Jiaojiao indeed considers us family. It’s just that this family never sincerely accepted her. I understand her moving out. Since she still remembers this bit of blood family, always keeping up appearances, then she should be given the respect she deserves.”
