Chapter 393: 393 Little Beggar Chapter 393: 393 Little Beggar “That’s right, little sister, when you all brought me back, did you see a boy?” Ye Gaosheng gestured with his hands as he spoke. “Around seven or eight years old, the little beggar who was standing by my side when you found me.”

“I did see him. When I took you away, that kid even asked about you.” Ye Jiu recalled for a moment before asking, “Right, who is he?”

“Speaking of him, he’s also a pitiful child. He’s been begging with his grandfather since he was little and doesn’t even have a proper name. Everyone calls him little beggar. When I ran into him, he had just had his leg broken by Liu San and was left stranded on the streets, just after his grandfather had died. He was just a small child without anyone to accompany him, so he took the initiative to team up with me. During the time I was unable to move due to my injury, he brought me some food every day, which kept me from starving to death. Later…” Ye Gaosheng said, his old face flushed with embarrassment, he opened his mouth but couldn’t continue.

That period could be described as the darkest time in his life.

With a broken leg and little money left on him, Ye Gaosheng had no choice but to give the little beggar a few coins each time to buy him some food to eat. Later, he simply joined the little beggar in begging for a living, all the while trying to find out any news about Ye Jiu.

The two of them, one crippled and the other young, survived those months on the sympathy and charity of others.

He had thought they would depend on each other for life from then on, but now he had been found by his sister, who had become wealthy.

Looking at the situation, it was unlikely that his little sister would agree to let him go back to the beggars’ den.

Ye Gaosheng couldn’t help worrying about the child who had been dependent on him for several months and how he would manage to survive on his own in the future.

Seeing that Ye Gaosheng was too distressed to continue, Ye Jiu could guess that he must have had an extremely hard time during that period.

Looking at Ye Gaosheng with compassion, Ye Jiu firmly declared, “Fourth brother, one day we will take our revenge, and those who hurt you will pay the price and regret treating you like they did.”

“No, no, no…” Ye Gaosheng shook his head in a panic, “Little sister, I have made some inquiries in the capital city during this time. The Liu Residence is not someone to be trifled with; it’s Prince Wenzheng’s Yue Family. They are royal relatives, not someone we commoners can afford to provoke.”

If it were just him alone, Ye Gaosheng, already in his current condition, would have nothing to fear.

However, he couldn’t selfishly seek revenge for himself and risk getting his sister involved as well.

Ye Jiu was not without self-awareness, of course, and wouldn’t recklessly fight a battle he could not win.

But fortunes can change; the Liu Family may stand at the pinnacle today, but that does not mean they couldn’t fall under his feet in the future!

“Don’t worry, fourth brother, I know my limits,” Ye Jiu reassured, “Since the little beggar once helped you, why not ask him if he would like to leave with us? You’ll need to rest to heal your leg during this time, and having him by your side to help fetch you some tea or water would be good.”

“Do you really want to bring him with us?” Ye Gaosheng was not doubting Ye Jiu, but his time begging had made him realize that beggars are looked down upon by many in this world; some wouldn’t hesitate to kick them, let alone be willing to support a little beggar.

Ye Jiu smiled, “I’ll have Wenzheng handle this matter. You just rest up here; I’ll be out for a while.”

Ye Gaosheng nodded.

In his absence, he didn’t know exactly what had happened to his little sister, but he could tell that she was now faintly exuding an air of authority typical of someone in command.
