Chapter 881: Defending His Fiance

Translator:Dragon Boat TranslationEditor:Dragon Boat Translation

Ye Lengan, at this point, you still dare to threaten Wanwan here.

Before Ye Wanwan could say anything, Zhongyu Jiarui couldnt help but speak out, Let me tell you, all the major families in the Hidden World are here. Dont think you can act recklessly.

Zhongyu Jiarui, since this matter has nothing to do with you, please refrain from speaking, Ye Lengan looked coldly at Zhongyu Jiarui. If you continue to meddle here, dont blame me for being impolite.

As she spoke, Ye Lengans gaze slowly fell on the injured wrist of Zhongyu Jiarui. The threat in her eyes was unmistakable.

That icy stare felt like a piercing arrow straight to the heart. Feeling the waves of pain from her wrist, Zhongyu Jiarui couldnt help but s.h.i.+ver, taking a few steps back.

Seeing Ye Lengan threaten his daughter like this, Master Zhongyu was also furious. However, before he could say anything, Ye Lengans gaze once again landed on Ye Wanwan.

Ye Wanwan, you havent answered me yet!

Facing Ye Lengans relentless pressure, Ye Wanwan pressed her lips tightly together. An unknown glint flashed in her eyes, but she refrained from directly answering Ye Lengans question.

Miss Ye, why are you being so aggressive? When Murong Xingrui saw this, he couldnt help but defend his fiance, Wanwan has already told the truth. As a victim, why should she endure your interrogation? Dont think that just because of your relations.h.i.+p with the Ye family, you can

Xingrui!

As Murong Xingrui spoke further, Ye Wanwan felt a twinge of anxiety. Just as Murong Xingrui was about to reveal Ye Lengans ident.i.ty, she hastily intervened. She couldnt allow Ye Lengans background to be exposed here, whether for her own status or due to her grandfathers strict orders.

Hearing the urgency in her voice, Murong Xingrui couldnt help but furrow his brows. He looked down to see Ye Wanwan gripping his wrist tightly, shaking her head gently, her eyes pleading.

Though he didnt understand why Ye Wanwan chose to yield, he couldnt continue speaking under her beseeching gaze.

A hint of sympathy flickered in Ye Lengans eyes as she glanced at Murong Xingrui.

Perhaps Murong Xingrui still didnt grasp the true nature of his fiance! Or perhaps, he was unaware of the schemes within the Ye family. It seemed he was still too young to suspect Ye Wanwans peculiar behavior!

Even if Murong Xingrui was slow to catch on, he could sense Ye Lengans peculiar gaze. Was the other party sympathizing with him?

A strange sensation stirred in his heart, but now wasnt the time to dwell on it.

Ye Wanwan lifted her head, meeting Ye Lengans gaze directly. Ye Lengan, I no longer intend to pursue this matter.

Having her parents stand by her side was already the days greatest surprise for her. Moreover, with Huangfu Ruiling backing Ye Lengan, even if Ye Lengan had truly harmed her, she wouldnt face any consequences. Her parents wouldnt seek retribution for her sake.

So, putting an end to this matter now was for the best. Moreover, by her own initiative, it would showcase her magnanimity and deepen her parents sense of guilt.

Ye Wanwan, it seems youre certain that I lack evidence, hence your audacity in accusing me! Ye Lengan sneered. But how can you be sure I wont be able to handle you?

Seeing Ye Lengans composed demeanor, Ye Wanwans heart skipped a beat. But she quickly regained her composure. She was certain there had been no one else in the restroom at the time except for her and Ye Lengan. Even Zhongyu Jiarui had entered later, despite her adamant claims.

Therefore, Ye Lengan definitely lacked any evidence to prove her innocence.

Ive decided not to pursue this matter any further. What more do you want? Ye Wanwans expression betrayed her anguish. Must you force me to admit that I went so far as to harm myself just to frame you?

With those words, all sympathetic gazes turned to Ye Wanwan.

Especially when they recalled the bloodstains on her body and her pallid complexion when she emerged. Even her breathing seemed faint, making it impossible for her to have self-inflicted such injuries unless she had a death wish.

Such severe injuries, despite having taken medicinal pills, would likely require a long period of recovery. It was unlikely that anyone could be so ruthless towards themselves!

Ye Hongxuan and Lian Mengzhus hearts ached even more. They couldnt help but feel a hint of resentment towards Ye Lengan. Though they encouraged Ye Wanwan to speak the truth, they never intended to harm Ye Lengan! Why was Ye Lengan pressuring Wanwan like this?

To everyones surprise, shortly after Ye Wanwan finished speaking, Ye Lengan nodded solemnly. It seems youre aware of your place!

Ye Lengan, dont go too far. Ye Hongxuan couldnt bear it any longer. He stepped forward, s.h.i.+elding Ye Wanwan. Wanwan is already injured. What she needs now is healing and recuperation, not to be pressured by you step by step.

Even Lian Mengzhu sighed helplessly. Ye Lengan, we understand that you harbor resentment, but you shouldnt have laid hands on Wanwan. Now that she has decided not to pursue the matter, we hope you can understand and stop being so aggressive.

She spoke in veiled terms because her father had strictly forbidden any mention of the relations.h.i.+p between Ye Lengan and the Ye family. However, she was deeply disappointed in her biological daughter, Ye Lengan.

Though they were biological siblings, the difference was significant without growing up together. Growing up in a small wealthy family in the mortal world, Ye Lengan lacked the demeanor of a young lady from a prominent family. Moreover, her personality was too sharp. This wouldnt bode well for her future.

Though Huangfu Ruiling could tolerate it, he was still young. But what about in the future? Once the sweetness faded, had Ye Lengan considered what her path would be?
