General Lan's eyes were wide open, his fists clenched, and he looked like he had gone mad with anger.

Yes, I saw it with my own eyes, how could it be fake?

He had witnessed it with his own eyes, which is why he never doubted the truth. Moreover, at that time, Lan Yi simply hid in the house and did not come out to testify against anyone.

He really thought Ye Cunsi was a despicable scoundrel, but it turns out Ye Cunjin was the real one, and this bastard even cried wolf! He even tried to kill his own brother!

So why would he suspect Ye Cunjin back then?

He truly had absolutely no doubts!

"I was wrong. Ye Cunsi is a soldier I personally trained. He is brave in battle and has a bright future. Yi'er admires him. He would never and has no reason to bully Yi'er!" General Lan said, his chest swelling as if boundless anger was about to erupt!

"No, General Lan, I absolutely did not harm Miss Lan. I came here today to atone for my brother's sins and to ask for Miss Lan's hand in marriage! Please believe me!" Ye Cunjin kept backing away.

But at that moment, the door behind them opened, and Lan Yi appeared.

When Ye Cunjin saw her, it was as if he had seen a savior. He immediately rushed towards her and grabbed her arms: "Miss Lan, tell them that I didn't bully you that day, right!"

He added, "It's okay if you don't want to marry me! I will never force you! But your reputation has been ruined by the Ye family, so I will find a way to help you with your marriage!"

"If you ever find a man you like in the future, just tell me, and I'll help you! I'll make sure you don't suffer any injustice!"

What may seem like a flattering remark is actually a threat.

If Lan Yi admits that Ye Cunjin was the one who bullied her in the past, then she has no choice but to marry him; otherwise, who else would marry her?

Lan Yi concealed the truth back then because she didn't want to marry him, right? Today, her choice will definitely be the same as before.

That despicable woman, her reputation is ruined, yet she still looks down on him. She's utterly despicable!

Everyone was looking at Lan Yi. The general and his wife were looking at him, as was the Princess Consort of Yu. Even Ye Cunsi, who was sitting in a wheelchair, pursed his lips.

Before she spoke, no one knew what her answer would be.

Only Ye Cunjin remained convinced in his heart, but she dared not speak of it.

However, Lan Yi suddenly pushed his hand away, his gaze sharp as a blade, staring directly into his eyes, his eyes filled with a frenzied hatred that erupted in an instant:

"It was you! The one who tried to bully me in the military camp that day was you! It was you, Ye Cunjin!"

In the wheelchair, Ye Cunsi closed his eyes, his eyelashes trembling, and his fingers gripping the armrests turned white instantly.

Ye Cunjin's body trembled violently as he looked at her in disbelief. She actually admitted it?

How dare she admit it!

"Father, Mother, I was wrong! I was terrified that day. I didn't want to marry this villain, so I begged Cunsi to help me cover it up. Cunsi was just comforting me, but Ye Cunjin and his men rushed over and turned around and bit me!"

The truth was finally revealed, and Lan Yi tensed up, tears streaming down her face.

"I thought that if I backed down, things would calm down, but no, no! That heartless bastard actually dared to come to my door to propose marriage and even dared to force me to marry him!"

When the general's wife saw her crying, she couldn't hold back her tears either. She rushed forward and embraced her, crying, "My poor, wretched daughter..."

It's over, it's completely over!

Ye Cunjin turned to run, but General Lan quickly caught up, grabbed him, and began to beat him mercilessly with his fists and feet!

Ye Qingxue had already come out of the house and was standing at the door, watching this scene with a leisurely air.

When General Lan stopped, Ye Cunjin was unable to get up, his hair disheveled, his face bruised and swollen, lying in a pool of blood.

Princess Consort Yu said, "I will go to the palace now and report this man's evil deeds to the Emperor. He is truly unworthy to inherit the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Valor! Nor is he worthy to be an official of the court!"

Ye Cunjin was already in a daze, his whole body aching so much that he just wanted to lie on the ground and be done with it, but when he suddenly heard what the Princess Consort of Yu said, he was jolted awake from the pain.

He tried to crawl over to beg Princess Yu not to kill him, but it hurt too much, and he couldn't move at all.

"Haha...hahaha!"

Ye Cunjin suddenly burst into wild laughter.

The general's wife, enraged, frowned and asked, "What are you laughing at!"

“On that day in the military camp, Miss Lan was indeed defiled by me, but have you really thought it through to tell the Emperor about this and cut off all my paths?”

"If that's the case, I'll announce to the world exactly how I defiled Miss Lan that day. She's so beautiful, with such fair skin, it's irresistible..."

Although Ye Cunjin was bruised and swollen, he still put on an expression of nostalgia and infatuation for that day.

As parents, how could the general and his wife bear it? They felt so disgusted they were about to vomit!

General Lan stepped forward again and kicked him away with a powerful kick.

Ye Cunjin crashed to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood, but he was still smiling. "I have recorded the events of that day in detail and written them into a small booklet."

"If you destroy me, that booklet will be sent to everyone, and then everyone will know how I bullied Miss Lan, hahaha!"

He looked at the crowd defiantly: "So, do you dare? Try touching me again and see what happens."
