Chapter 251 – Home Again (III)
Across the distance, Ye Wei’s gaze fell on Ye Wuchen. After he calmed himself down, he looked at Ningxue at his ride side and Tongxin at his left hand. All his doubts disappeared. Before coming here, he didn’t have the nerves to tell his wife. He didn’t tell his father either. He’s so scared that it would turn out to be a misunderstanding and everyone would be disappointed. He slammed on his horse, and he was overwhelmed with emotions and tears were forming in his eyes.
How would you feel when you have a surprise?
Three years ago, his world crumbled. He had suffered for three years. The whole Ye Family was living in despair. Even though he won in numerous battles, what did they mean to him? He had lost his son, and there was no one left in his next generation. Three years later, a big surprise reappeared, this time a hundred times more surprising. When he thought of all these times, his father became hopeless, and his wife was crying every day. Seeing Ye Wuchen again, he wanted to laugh, yet he wanted to cry even more.
But as a father, how could he cry in front of his son? He tried to control himself while letting the wind drying his tears.
When the horse got close, he couldn’t wait for the horse to stop. He jumped from the horse and rushed to the front of Ye Wuchen, his hands on his shoulders, and he was looking straight at Ye Wuchen, “Chen’er, is it really you?”
“It’s me, and I am back.” Ye Wuchen smiled and raised his left hand with the Sword God ring. “No one in this world can pretend to be me.”
“Chen’er…” He forcedly controlled the emotions. At this time, his eyes were blurred by tears. There were too many words to say, but in this situation, he was silent. His arms placing on Chen’s shoulders trembled vigorously, showing how emotional he felt.
“Three years ago, I was very close to Hell. And I was told that even if I died, I had to die on a battlefield. That’s the reason why I’m sent back.” Ye Wuchen smiled. He was moved by the man’s tears and his expression. For his son, he couldn’t spare his tears.
Maybe, in Ye Wuchen’s life, he could never say that he was just pretending to be the son of Ye Wei. Ye Wei, as a father, had given him too much love and he could not find anything as a return.
In turn, he could only be “his son” in another way.
“Father, these are my friends. He is called Cold Cliff, and he’s called Chu Jingtian, the grandson of the Sword God, Chu Cangming. We have known each other since forever.” Ye Wuchen introduced his friends warmly.
In the past, if Ye Wei heard about “grandson of the Sword God, Chu Cangming”, he would be in shock. But now, he didn’t even look at Chu Jingtian. His eyes were all focused on Ye Wuchen and the way he called him “Father”. What he was saying didn’t catch his attention.

“You…finally called me father.”
“Well, you are my father.” Ye Wuchen replied. He thought of that particular night, when he and Ye Shuiyao vowed to be a married couple under the moonlight. At that moment, he told himself, her parents would be his parents as well. And he could finally call him father without any doubt.
Ye Wei nodded, and the two smiled at each other.
Ye Wei stood up straightly and looked up. It’s like he was waiting for his tears to dry, but it’s more like he was thanking God for his mercy. He saw very clearly that Ye Wuchen was very weak. But it didn’t matter for him. It’s already good enough that he came back.
A carriage finally chased up on the bumpy road. Ye Wuchen said, “father, let’s go home. I miss home.”
Ye Wei nodded heavily. Home…without Ye Wuchen, that place can hardly be called his home.
Ye Wuchen sat in the carriage under the help of Chu Jingtian, Ningxue and Tongxin also stepped forward. Ningxue turned back and said, “brother Da Niu, that wheelchair is critical to my brother, you must not lose it.”
“Rest assured, and you can count on me, it’s just a piece of wood.” Chu Jingtian patted on his chest, and there was still a little moist in the corners of his eyes. Ye Wei and Ye Wuchen only said a few sentences to each other, but he had already felt a lot of emotions in them. Between two men, nothing much has to be said. They naturally knew from each other’s eyes and expressions. For someone like him who does not have a father, his feelings could be described as sour, awkward, bitter and jealous.
“You both are friends of Chen’er, and you are the guests of the Ye Family, please get onto the horse.” Ye Wei let the two followers dismount, and politely greeted Chu Jingtian and Cold Cliff.
Chu Jingtian said while waving his hand, “that’s too nice of you, uncle. But it might be faster if we walk.”

Cold Cliff nodded slightly.
Ye Wei no longer insisted. He nodded, and he got on the horse. He yelled once and went off.
After they had gone, Chu Jingtian took the wheelchair and said with surprise, “Oh? What kind of wood is this? It’s so hard, it feels like steel and iron.” He didn’t overthink and said seriously to Cold Cliff, “Cold face, do you know why I can never be faster than you? I now know why, that’s because I’m heavier than you. Do you want to compete? Why don’t you try carrying this wheelchair?”
Cold Cliff raised his right hand and took away the wheelchair swiftly. With ease, he grabbed it without having to spend any energy. He said plainly, “I already gave way to you for 10 seconds.”
