He Yuzhu looked at Yi Zhonghai in bewilderment. Listening to what was being said, his father had left food for him and his sister, only for it to be stolen? And his father had left money and a job in Uncle Yi’s hands, which were never given to him either?
He Yuzhu scratched his head, unable to fathom what was going on no matter how hard he thought. "Uncle Yi, how come I didn't know about any of this?"
A flash of hatred flickered in Yi Zhonghai's eyes. If only this fool hadn't dragged him into this! If they had gone home and settled this behind closed doors, everything could have been smoothed over. There was no need to rack his brain and scramble for excuses in front of everyone. It was no wonder He Daqing had run off; if he had a son this foolish, he would have... but no, he couldn't run. A son, no matter how foolish, was still his own flesh and blood—one had to care for him and protect him. Yi Zhonghai pondered this for a long time, eventually sighing silently. What was the point of all that thinking? He didn't even have a son of his own!
