Chapter 1275: Resolution
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
This ending wasn’t expected by Tian Long and Tian Donghua. Yang Ming’s tolerance moved Tian Donghua. He was grateful that Yang Ming could see him and his father as two different people, instead of the same group. Of course, this was also the case, but it was very difficult for someone to remain clear-headed in this situation. After all, it was an indisputable fact that he and Tian Long were father and son, and almost everyone would classify them as a group, so Yang Ming’s attitude was very rare at this moment.
“Dad…” After Yang Ming left, Tian Donghua hesitated for a long while before he finally spoke. Although his heart was sad, he also guessed that Yang Ming and the Sun Family would never let go of his father, so he couldn’t plead with Yang Ming.
“Donghua, don’t be upset. If Yang Ming can keep his promise and fulfill what he said, then I will die without regret. You are stronger than your father; you can stay clear-headed at the crucial moment, and not stand on the wrong side. This is already very remarkable! If you really did join my forces, you would be a prisoner like me now.” Tian Long thought about it now. He was currently around fifty years old. His pursuit in this life wasn’t great anymore. He only wanted to let his son have a good life in the future.
Now, Yang Ming had made a promise which was basically the same as what Tian Long envisioned. Although it might be delayed in time, the result was the same.
Thinking of this, Tian Long also settled down. It seemed that it was a wise choice for Tian Donghua to always insist on his own stance. At least, after Tian Long fell from power, Tian Donghua wasn’t affected. Yang Ming could still treat him as a brother which was rare to see.
“Dad… I… I just know what is right and what is wrong.” Tian Donghua sighed. His father’s words made him feel bad, but there was no other way. “So, I can’t, and I will not plead with Yang Ming.”
“I know…” Tian Long waved his hand indifferently. Since he had become a prisoner, he would admit his fate. “Even if you wanted to plead for me, I will stop you!”
“Why?” Tian Donghua was astounded and looked at his father, baffled.
“Hehe, what would Yang Ming think if you pleaded for me? He will definitely think that you are still thinking of me. Then will he entrust you with heavy responsibility in the future?” Tian Long said, “So, I won’t let you do this for your future.”
Tian Donghua listened to his father’s words, and he was a little speechless. He wanted to say that Yang Ming was not such a person, and he wouldn’t think so much about it, but he didn’t say it because Tian Long wouldn’t believe it even if he said that.
Since his father could think it through, he didn’t have to ask Yang Ming. Tian Donghua suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but he was saddened by his inability to save his father.
“Now that I think about it, in fact, I must have the righteousness as a human! I must adhere to my own ideas; I can’t be blinded by money and interests. I was being too stubborn previously…” Tian Long sighed and said, “However, you are also lucky that you have a friend who treats you like this!”
“Not a friend; he’s a brother!” said Tian Donghua.
“Hehe, yeah…” Tian Long smiled; it was a gratifying smile. Perhaps this was his happiest moment before his death.
Tian Donghua didn’t expect that his father could repent. It was said that the person would say the kind and true words when he was about to die. No matter how Tian Donghua persuaded him previously, he insisted on his own point of view. He thought that he was always right, and he refused to repent. But now, he came around to the idea without Tian Donghua saying anything. This made Tian Donghua feel glad instead.
It was Yang Ming’s attitude that made Tian Long finally realize his mistake from the inside. He still underestimated Yang Ming in the end, but he didn’t expect Yang Ming to go beyond the level of personal grievances. This made Tian Long a bit embarrassed.
“Dad, although you finally repented… Ai, I…” Tian Donghua was incoherent. No matter what his father did, Tian Long was always his father. It was tough for him to sit and watch and pay no attention.
Tian Long naturally knew what Tian Donghua wanted to say. He waved his hand and smiled. “Don’t say it; it’s fine. You can go out now. Don’t tell Tian Dongguang about my matter first. That kid is stubborn. I’m afraid that he won’t be able to accept it.”
Tian Donghua nodded silently, stood up, and he was about to go out, but the door behind him opened again.
The person coming in was Yang Ming.
“Are you guys finished?” Yang Ming smiled and looked at Tian Donghua. He also saw that Tian Donghua’s face didn’t look very good; it was somewhat pale and powerless.
“En…” Tian Donghua nodded. “Okay, I will go out now…”
“Donghua, do you have anything to say to me?” Yang Ming grabbed Tian Donghua’s arm and looked into his eyes.
“I… what can I say?” Tian Donghua was slightly stunned, then he smiled bitterly. “Although I want to say something in my heart, I can’t say it. What I want to say is that bro, do what you should do. Forget about him being my father; forget about my feelings! This thing won’t affect the brotherhood between us!
“From the moment I advised my father, and he didn’t listen, I knew I had to stand on the opposite side from him! I had to make my choice, so I have no other way.”
Yang Ming looked at Tian Donghua in appreciation. “Good. You, kid, can discriminate between kindness and hatred; it is not easy!”
Tian Donghua was somewhat helpless; he didn’t know what to say. He waved his hand. “I’ll go out first…”
“You don’t want to hear my final decision?” Yang Ming looked at Tian Donghua and asked.
“I think not…” Tian Donghua shook his head. “Although I know that my father deserves it, I don’t want to watch him…”
Tian Donghua didn’t finish his words, but he believed that Yang Ming must understand him. Tian Donghua said that he did not want to watch his father die.
“Maybe you should listen.” Yang Ming smiled.
Seeing Yang Ming insisted, Tian Donghua couldn’t be helped. Although he didn’t know what Yang Ming meant, he probably wanted to give Tian Donghua the right to know. Otherwise, he might regret it later.
“Tian Long, although you deserve to be punished, it is not an exaggeration to have you die ten thousand times. However, do you know why I finally decided to let you live?” Yang Ming looked at Tian Long and asked word by word.
“Huh?” Tian Long was astounded; even Tian Donghua, on the side, showed a surprised expression! They never thought that Yang Ming would let Tian Long live!
Even Tian Long himself thought that he would definitely die, but at the moment, there was a twist to the event. Tian Long also thought that Yang Ming was fooling him. But seeing Yang Ming’s expression, he didn’t seem to be joking.
“Bro, you want to… let my father go?” Tian Donghua was also somewhat unbelieving; he looked suspiciously at Yang Ming.
Yang Ming nodded slightly. “Killing someone is not the way to solve things.”
“Bro… is it because of me…?” Tian Donghua’s voice suddenly broke, and he couldn’t even speak anymore. He knew that Yang Ming must be thinking about his friendship when he made this final choice.
This feeling of escaping death made Tian Long feel delighted. Although he had prepared to die, who was willing to die? As the saying goes, it is better to live than to die. Tian Long knew that he would be definitely dead previously, so he had no other thoughts.
But now, it was different. Now, there was hope for survival. Tian Long’s mind was naturally alive. Everyone has the desire to survive.
“Because I have a good son…” After Tian Long came around to the idea, he wasn’t hostile toward Yang Ming, so he wasn’t disgusted with Yang Ming’s question. He listened to Yang Ming’s question and answered.
“Yes, Tian Donghua is one of the factors why I am letting you go.” Yang Ming nodded faintly. Although Donghua also said that Yang Ming didn’t have to care about his feelings, in fact, Yang Ming couldn’t ignore Tian Donghua’s feelings! After all, they had a close relationship. With just the reason that Tian Donghua broke apart from his father for Yang Ming, it was impossible for Yang Ming not to show mercy! Yang Ming continued, “However, this is only one aspect. The most important thing is your attitude. You were able to repent on what you did before you died. This shows that you aren’t incurable. If you still didn’t repent even when you were going to die, I would not let you go even with my relationship with Donghua!”
After listening to Yang Ming’s words, Tian Long suddenly burst into a cold sweat! Yes, he did repent, but this was also based on the premise that he was dying. Because Tian Long knew that he couldn’t live long, he really calmed down and considered whether he was right or wrong.
Tian Long would only look inside himself under such a mood. From a fair and equitable perspective, he finally understood that everything he had done was wrong.
Who doesn’t want to live? Tian Long was really scared. If he didn’t have a deathwish, he wouldn’t think of it. Then, even if Yang Ming cared about Tian Donghua’s feelings, he couldn’t spare him.
Thinking of this, Tian Long still said, “Mr… Yang, thank you for not killing me…”
Although it was somewhat unreasonable, Yang Ming did let him go.
“But you can’t stay here anymore. I can’t guarantee that the Sun Family will still hold a grudge against you.” Yang Ming looked at Tian Long and warned faintly.
“I understand; I will leave Donghai tomorrow.” Tian Long clenched his teeth and said. Although it would be hard to see his son after leaving his hometown, Tian Long still had to make this choice.
“Go to my private territory in Africa, but I won’t arrange any duties for you. Just take it as retirement. Donghua can often visit you too.” Yang Ming had already made reasonable arrangements for Tian Long.
Now it seemed that Africa’s Country X was the best place for Tian Long. On the one hand, the Sun Family wouldn’t continue to use him. Instead of letting him be an eyesore here, it was better to send him a little farther.
It was entirely Yang Ming’s private territory over there; he wasn’t afraid of what Tian Long would do, not to mention he wouldn’t assign any position for Tian Long. Tian Long would understand that he was just going there to retire.
Of course, Yang Ming wouldn’t treat him badly. A world-class resort was under construction over there, so Tian Long could fully enjoy his life, but Yang Ming wouldn’t give him any power.
Tian Long naturally understood this. Yang Ming was letting him retire there, but this was already the best result. He thought that since he didn’t have to die, he still had to suffer for the rest of his life, thinking that Yang Ming would send him to do hard labor. Therefore, Tian Long was anxious for a while after listening to Yang Ming saying the first half of the sentence. After listening to the latter half of the sentence, Tian Long felt blissful. He was so old already. Since Yang Ming intended to let Tian Donghua take over the Sun Family’s business in Donghai, then he really had nothing to do. It wasn’t a bad idea to retire early.
“That is most welcome for me!” said Tian Long quickly.
Even Tian Donghua was ecstatic because Yang Ming was too tolerant in dealing with Tian Long. Not only did he not do anything to Tian Long, but he even sent him abroad on vacation.
“Bro… Thank you!” Tian Donghua took a deep breath and gratefully looked at Yang Ming, but he didn’t say those disgusting words because everything happened without saying. Tian Donghua knew that Yang Ming made such a decision to take care of his face.
“Thank you for what…” Yang Ming waved his hand. “Get ready to move tomorrow; I will arrange everything for you.”
Tian Long nodded silently.
“Donghua, you stay here tonight with your father. I will have Zhang Jinguo prepare some dishes. You two can talk well.” Yang Ming patted Tian Donghua’s shoulder and spoke.
Tian Donghua nodded and said, “I understand, bro. You can rest assured.”
Yang Ming once again left the room and gave some space to the Tian Family’s father and son, then he walked to Sun Hongjun’s room. Yang Ming hadn’t discussed with Sun Hongjun on how to deal with Tian Long, so he still had to talk to Sun Hongjun at this time. After all, Sun Hongjun was Yang Ming’s elder.Find authorized novels in NovelFull,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.
When he walked in, he heard Sun Hongjun’s hearty laughter. He looked at Sun Hongjun’s arrogant look. Yang Ming knew that his mood was completely recovered from the previously depressed mood.
“Uncle Sun, what’s made you so happy?” Yang Ming smiled and spoke as he walked into the room.
“Yang Ming, you are here!” Sun Hongjun stood up enthusiastically and walked over to Yang Ming! He spoke while walking, “This time, it’s thanks to you. Otherwise, we wouldn’t know how long we will be imprisoned!”
Sun Hongjun’s attitude had made Yang Ming somewhat flattered. Although Yang Ming rescued him this time, Sun Hongjun was Yang Ming’s elder anyway. This was a fact that couldn’t be changed, so it was an affirmation toward Yang Ming for Sun Hongjun thanking him personally.
“Uncle Sun, this is what I should do.” Yang Ming said with a smile. “I should do my best reasonably.”
As Yang Ming said this, he couldn’t help but look at Sun Jie. Seeing her looking at him with a smile, Yang Ming winked at her, but Sun Jie rolled her eyes at him instead.
Sun Jie must be thinking that Yang Ming was showing off to her, right? But Yang Ming didn’t know what she thought. After this time, he believed that Sun Jie would no longer be ambiguous.
“Yeah, right. We are a family!” Sun Hongjun laughed. After that, he remembered Tian Long’s matter and asked, “Right, Yang Ming, how are you dealing with Tian Long?”
“Uncle Sun, this is what I want to talk to you about.” Yang Ming made an entreating gesture. “Let’s go inside the room and talk.”
Sun Hongjun nodded. He also knew that Yang Ming had something to discuss with him, so he and Yang Ming went into the office inside the suite. This was prepared for Tian Long, but it became a place for Yang Ming and Sun Hongjun to discuss.
Sun Jie was a bit unhappy. She snorted. It was obviously because Yang Ming didn’t look for her and went directly to her father to talk about things, so she was dissatisfied. But this wasn’t a moment to talk about love. If Sun Jie was angry, then let her be. Yang Ming could only ignore it.
After Sun Hongjun entered the office and closed the door, Yang Ming said, “Uncle Sun, please sit…”
“Yang Ming, you are looking for me. Do you want to talk about Tian Long?” Sun Hongjun was very smart; he immediately guessed Yang Ming’s purpose.
Yang Ming nodded and sighed slightly, then he said, “Uncle Sun, you guessed it right. I looked for you, indeed, because of Tian Long’s matter.”
Sun Hongjun was sitting on the sofa without being surprised, then he said, “So, what do you want to do with him?”
“Let him go.” Yang Ming didn’t beat around the bush, but he spoke directly.
“Let him go?” Sun Hongjun was stunned. He didn’t expect Yang Ming to make such a choice. “You’re not pursuing his responsibility?”
“I don’t intend to pursue it.” Yang Ming affirmed. “So, I have to talk to you.”
Sun Hongjun smiled bitterly in his heart. He thought, You have already made a decision. What is the use in telling me? However, he was rescued by Yang Ming, and Tian Long was also caught by Yang Ming, so Sun Hongjun couldn’t really interfere with Yang Ming’s decision!
To say it bluntly, he was Yang Ming’s elder. Yang Ming would respect him. However, if he really wanted to compare, Yang Ming’s wealth and current status were not worse than his!
So although Sun Hongjun’s heart felt a bit uncomfortable in letting Tian Long go, he still didn’t express it. He just said, “In this case, you can decide on your own.”
“Hehe, is Uncle Sun a little uncomfortable?” Yang Ming wasn’t an amateur now; his eyes were keen. He immediately noticed Sun Hongjun’s displeasure.
“Not really…” How could Sun Hongjun admit it? He quickly denied it.
“Uncle Sun, in fact, this time, I know that you were under house arrest, but it’s thanks to my good brother, Tian Donghua. Otherwise, I wouldn’t find Tian Long so quickly, and get a lot of information about Tian Long…” Yang Ming naturally had to exaggerate the role that Tian Donghua played in the matter. “Tian Donghua knew that his father had done bad things, but he wasn’t willing to help his tyranny, so he chose to break resolutely from his father. Therefore, I have to let Tian Long go because of this!”
