I Started As A Novel Villain - Chapter 206: Unspoken Rule

Seeing the text he had gotten from Lei Ming, Ye Fei suddenly stood up.

Lei Haoran is dead!?

Thi—So fast?!

Ye Fei was expecting Lei Jin and his son to solve the situation amicably, but he had not expected them to resort to violence!

Furthermore, this issue was remedied in a timely and effective manner.

This came as no surprise to Ye Fei.

However, he soon realized that this was also good news.

With the proof that Lei Haoran had died, Ye Fei managed to remove a major complication, and Chen Luo had lost an ally.

Thinking like this, Ye Fei was both unexpected and pleasantly surprised.

It’s just that he is really curious, how did Lei Haoran die?

In fact, Lei Haoran’s only grave crime was the concealment of a dead body, and the case of being an accomplice in Li Xueqin’s murder was enough for Lei Haoran to be sentenced for more than 40 years in jail.

Ye Fei’s original expectation was that Li Xueqin’s case would be brought to light by Lei Haoran with new evidence but he did not expect the final result to be more rewarding than he initially thought.

Just as Ye Fei was itching with curiosity, Lei Yiming took the initiative to call.

He soon got in touch with Lei Yiming, and on the phone, he calmly told Ye Fei about the situation.

Since Lei Yiming and Ye Fei are allies, and it was thanks to Ye Fei that he learned the truth, he didn’t hide anything and told him outright regarding the situation.

Soon, Ye Fei knew the whole story.

Under the persecution of Lei Jin and Lei Yiming, Father Lei and Lei Haoran finally chose to ‘kill themselves’ in fear.

The involvement of this matter is much more complicated.

According to Lei Yiming’s story, there was a very exciting scene at the Lei family banquet last night.

At the banquet, the Lei family’s elder, Lei Haoran, and Lei Shaohui, including Lei Jin, Lei Yiming and others all attended this family banquet.

At the dinner, Lei Yiming discreetly brought up Huang Yufeng, and directly asked Lei Haoran about what truly happened back then.

Under Huang Yufeng’s testimonial, Lei Haoran’s involvement in Li Xueqin’s murder was completely exposed, which also made Senior Lei extremely angry.

But Senior Lei chose to defend Lei Haoran at first, wanting Lei Yiming to calm down.

Though that begged the question, why was he bringing it up now?.

Seeing such clear favoritism made Lei Yiming annoyed.

Therefore, Lei Yiming continued to bring up Lei Haoran’s crimes, specifically his involvement with Chen Luo.

Lei Haoran didn’t expect to be exposed in this dinner banquet and in a panic, he fumbled his words and showed his true personality.

With the truth laid out, Elder Lei was so angry that he slapped Lei Haoran twice on the spot.

He also realized that his dear grandson did a lot of wrongdoing, and even involved the family in assisting with his crimes.

For Senior Lei, this is an intolerable bottom line!

Among many prominent wealthy families, there is an unwritten rule: no matter how wrong of a crime you commit, you must absolutely not involve the family.

Since this can not only endanger many lives, it may lead to the destruction of the entire family!

Thus, Senior Lei was immediately furious when he learned that Lei Haoran had done this.

But just as the evidence involving Huang Yufeng who was once Lei Haoran’s confidant came to light, Lei Yiming who knew Lei Haoran would try to save his own skin revealed several other cases of malicious crimes involving the family!

Only then did Senior Lei realize that the obedient grandson in his eyes had been doing so much evil without telling him.

The nature of these crimes are really too serious.

Moreover, if Lei Haoran’s crimes are brought to the public, he would undoubtedly be sentenced to prison and killed!

Even then Senior Lei couldn’t help him.

Though this was natural as Lei Haoran has done a lot of evil, and sooner or later, those crimes would have been exposed either way.

With the intense pressure of Lei Jin and Lei Yiming who kept exposing Lei Haoran’s wrongdoings, Senior Lei finally made up his mind.

His decision was ruthless.

In order to upkeep the Lei family’s reputation, Lei Haoran must die.

And to make sure the public wouldn’t know of this, Senior Lei wanted him to write a suicide note explaining that he was constantly under the pressure of others expectations that he had no choice but to kill himself to run away from it.

Thus, that is the reason for his death.

Just because Senior Lei loves Lei Haoran and constantly dotes on him, such kindness can’t be spared when it’s in front of the whole Lei family and he had no choice but to abandon his grandson.

Otherwise, the reputation and future of the Lei family will be destroyed in Lei Haoran’s hands!

In the face of preserving the entire Lei family, Senior Lei had no choice.

At the same time, another piece of information that Ye Fei gave to Lei Jin also came in handy.

This information is the blackmail material related to Lei Haoran’s father Lei Shaohui!

It seems this information got leaked.

Well, Lei Jin asked a reporter to investigate Lei Shaohui as a pretense and provided him with the blackmail information.

Now that father and son have been reduced to nothing but average citizens, Lei Yiming wouldn’t let this opportunity go by.

Therefore, starting this morning, Lei Shaohui was under investigation by the Supervisory Institute, and there will be results soon.

With that it marked the end of the matter.

As for what will happen to Lei Shaohui afterwards, it’s easy to predict.

After listening to Lei Yiming’s narration, Ye Fei also felt a huge boulder lift from his heart.

Lei Yiming thanked Ye Fei again and again. This time he managed to defeat Lei Haoran, and although Ye Fei did not directly participate, he was definitely the final blow contributor.

If it were not for Ye Fei’s guidance, Lei Yiming would never have found Huang Yufeng in his life! After all, Huang Yufeng was living in another country.

In addition, if it weren’t for Ye Fei helping Lei Jin detoxify the poison in his body and seeing through Lei Haoran’s conspiracy, Lei Yiming and Lei Jin would end up dead!

From this vantage point, Ye Fei is the savior of Lei Jin and Lei Yiming’s lives, and this is not an exaggeration!

As a result, Lei Yiming was exceedingly grateful and admired Ye Fei from the bottom of his heart.

Furthermore, he was taken aback by Ye Fei’s strategy, particularly his intelligence capacity, which is far too formidable.

Ye Fei was similarly at ease after learning that Lei Haoran had died.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, the important character Lei Haoran was killed thanks to the hosts effort. You are awarded 1,000 experience points]

At this moment, Ye Fei’s ears rang with the system prompt.

1,000 experience points!

This was comparable to what Ye Fei had gained in killing the protagonist Lin Yufan before!

Such a fruitful harvest!
