The confidant hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "I wouldn't dare!"
Ye Jingxian sneered: "Dare not? I am no longer the second young master who enjoys unlimited glory in the Prince's mansion, but the second young master who has lost his support."
"What are you people who climb the social ladder and step on the weak afraid of?"
The confidant was so frightened by these words that he didn't dare to look up.
Ye Jingxian felt a tightness in his chest; the smooth sailing of the past seemed unreal compared to the current adversity.
At that moment, a violent rage surged within him. All of this belonged to him, and he would not allow anyone to take away what was rightfully his!
A murderous glint flashed in Ye Jingxian's eyes: "Anyone who stands in my way must die!"
Ye Junfei had already returned to the courtyard. Wu Ge asked him softly, "Young Master, why did you provoke Ye Jingxian just now?"
He knew that Ye Junfei wasn't the type to engage in verbal sparring for no reason, so there must be a reason why he was disgusted with Ye Jingxian.
Ye Junfei's lips curled up slightly. He was in a good mood and offered a rare explanation: "When a person possesses something, they usually don't feel anything special about it."
"And when a person loses these things, he will find it extremely difficult to bear."
"Although Ye Jingxian is foolish, he has a strong sense of crisis. At this time, it is difficult for him to endure any longer. I just added fuel to the fire."
Wu Ge still didn't understand the meaning of Ye Junfei's words.
Ye Junfei smiled and offered no further explanation.
To some extent, this kind of thing is a catalyst that accelerates the development of the whole thing.
When he returned to his room, Lin Xiuyan and Ye Qingwan were laughing heartily about something.
Ye Junfei asked, "What are you saying that you're having so much fun about?"
Lin Xiuyan replied, "The Qu family just sent a matchmaker over, wanting to marry Qingwan as soon as possible."
Upon hearing this, Ye Junfei's face darkened. He had absolutely no goodwill towards the people from the Qu family.
In his eyes, that whole family was nothing but hypocritical scoundrels.
He said coldly, "The young master of the Qu family is not good enough for you."
Ye Qingwan nodded: "I think so too. They are all despicable people. They only married me because they saw my brother's abilities."
Ye Junfei looked at her and said, "Since you know all this, why are you wasting your time with them?"
Ye Qingwan laughed and said, "I think they're just a bunch of monkeys jumping around, it's quite amusing to watch."
“They want to marry me so they can take advantage of my brother. Before they can take advantage, they should at least show some sincerity, shouldn’t they?”
Ye Junfei had always known that his younger sister was a scheming person and not someone easy to get along with.
Hearing her say that, he knew she probably had other thoughts in mind.
He then said, "You are my sister. It's understandable that I couldn't protect you in the capital before."
"Now I don't need you to sacrifice your lifelong happiness for me. You can go and marry someone you like."
“Even if you really can’t get married, I can still support you. My sister doesn’t need to be subservient to anyone or compromise herself.”
Ye Qingwan felt a warmth in her heart, but said disdainfully, "I can't get married? Don't think that just because you've gotten married you can launch personal attacks against me!"
"If you can find a wife, then I can find one too!"
Ye Junfei glanced at her sideways, while Lin Xiuyan laughed so hard her stomach hurt.
Ye Qingwan added, "After all, I also have a beautiful face!"
She used the ointment that Lin Xiuyan had prepared for her during this period, and the scars on her face faded a lot.
Although the half of her face that was once scratched is still not the same as the normal half, at least it is not as frightening as before.
Lin Xiuyan said from the side, "Young Master, there's no need to be nervous. Qingwan has no intention of marrying into the Qu family."
"After all, the Qu family and Ye Mingzhu had a previous marriage agreement. Now that they want to marry Qingwan, they must show their sincerity."
"Once they show their sincerity and the young master's position is secure, Qingwan will marry the young master of the Qu family if she likes him, and she won't marry him if she doesn't."
"After all, Fan Xilou promised Qingwan that once he had control of the Zhou family's business and was worthy of the princess, he would also like to marry her."
Ye Qingwan glared at her and said, "Can you keep this a secret? I just told you, and you're already telling others!"
Lin Xiuyan chuckled and said, "Your Highness is not an outsider. This concerns your lifelong happiness, so Your Highness should know about it."
Ye Qingwan snorted and said, "You're full of twisted logic!"
Lin Xiuyan's eyes crinkled with laughter, but Ye Junfei frowned: "Fan Xilou? He's not good enough for you."
Ye Qingwan smiled and said, "In terms of background alone, he is not good enough for me, but when it comes to feelings, there is no such thing as being good enough or not. It's just a matter of liking or disliking."
"He is the most pleasing to the eye among all the men I have seen so far. I think he is good."
"He was able to avenge his family alone, against an enemy far stronger than himself, yet he still succeeded."
"From a certain perspective, he is capable, resilient, and, more importantly, loyal and devoted."
“A man like this, even if he comes from a humble background, will not be too unsuccessful in the future.”
Lin Xiuyan wanted to give Ye Qingwan a thumbs up after hearing her analysis; she really had a good eye for people.
Lin Xiuyan had witnessed Fan Xilou's abilities in her previous life. As long as he could treat Ye Qingwan sincerely, the two of them could live a very happy life.
She immediately said, "I'm on Qingwan's side."
Ye Junfei sighed softly upon hearing this: "We'll talk about this later. Just keep it in mind."
Ye Qingwan smiled and said, "Don't worry, I know exactly what's going on."
Ye Junfei, however, did not think highly of Fan Xilou, after all, this guy had previously said that he wanted to marry Lin Xiuyan.
It hasn't been that long, and he's already saying he wants to marry Ye Qingwan again. Does this kind of man deserve to be called loyal and devoted?
He was very skeptical.
However, he also knew Ye Qingwan's abilities; if she wanted, she could make that man completely submissive.
So as long as she's happy, that's fine!
Fan Xilou isn't without his merits; all his relatives have died, so if Ye Qingwan were to marry him, she wouldn't have to worry about getting along with her in-laws.
Judging from Fan Xilou's appearance, he probably wouldn't mind marrying into the family.
So after they get married, Ye Junfei will have many opportunities to deal with Fan Xilou.
Thinking about it this way, Ye Junfei realized that the marriage wasn't so bad after all.
Lin Xiuyan then asked Ye Junfei about the Ye family and the Hu family, and Ye Junfei told her everything in detail.
He concluded, "Ye Jingxian is about to lose his composure. If he makes any move, he will surely die."
Lin Xiuyan agreed with his statement. The current situation was very unfavorable for Ye Jingxian, and he could easily become desperate and act rashly.
She smiled and said, "He's been living too comfortably before. Now it's time for him to experience what the young master used to live like."
Ye Junfei smiled and said, "Yes, let's see how crazy he goes. I reckon he's going to pull off something big."
