Yu Ruoer couldn't stand hearing anyone tell her to leave Brother Ye Tian, and her face fell.
"Fourth Senior Sister, please stop talking about these things that make me unhappy."
Li Ruonan was speechless, feeling a sense of disappointment and frustration.
If you try to persuade her again, you're a dog!
Ji Huaishu swallowed his words of advice.
Then there's nothing to talk about.
"Is Ninth Senior Brother a good young city lord?"
Yu Ruoer's words carried a hint of resentment; she still harbored resentment towards her mother for handing over Moyu City to outsiders.
The two were stunned for a moment, then looked at each other again.
One person truthfully said:
"Don't let Ninth Junior Brother's quiet demeanor fool you; he's steady, upright, and perfectly suited to be the young city lord. Master is no longer involved in affairs and has been in seclusion cultivating. Ninth Junior Brother is managing the entire Moyu City and is very popular with the people. Master said that he will hand over the position of city lord to Ninth Junior Brother after some time."
With each sentence her fourth senior sister spoke, Yu Ruo'er's face paled a little more.
“He’s perfect for the job, but what about me? I’m a member of the Yu family… that position should be mine!”
Li Ruonan frowned. "Master said that the ancestor's original intention in making Moyu City independent was to protect the people of the area, and there was no clear stipulation that it was the private property of any family."
Yu Ruoer opened her mouth, but felt a chill in her heart.
"Wait!" Li Ruonan's eyes narrowed, and she grabbed Yu Ruoer's hand, lifting her sleeve.
Yu Ruoer couldn't avoid it, and the wound on her arm was fully exposed. It was a burn from a specific medicinal powder, just like the one her senior brother had suffered.
"Your senior brother's death is related to you!?"
Yu Ruoer's expression flashed with panic, and she quickly shook her head to deny that it was her; she could swear it.
"Junior Sister, you've never been good at lying since you were little. Senior Brother's death is definitely related to you, isn't it!?"
Under their interrogation, Yu Ruoer stammered and tried to cover up the truth, but eventually confessed that her senior brother wanted to kill Ye Tian, but Ye Tian killed him instead, and she was at most the trigger.
The culprit is Ye Tian!
"He killed our senior brother, and you're still with him? All those years of our senior brother's love for you were for nothing!"
The two were greatly disappointed in Yu Ruoer.
Yu Ruoer was already crying her eyes out, blaming the dead for the mistake. In short, she and her brother Ye Tian were both innocent.
They couldn't agree on anything and didn't want to stay a moment longer, so they parted on bad terms.
Yu Ruoer returned to Ye Tian's side with red eyes, while Ye Tian's eyes flashed with cold light. He vowed to teach those who had bullied her a lesson.
"No! They didn't do it on purpose."
Yu Ruoer quickly stopped her and told her senior brothers and sisters that they knew the cause of their eldest brother's death.
Ye Tian had only been putting on an act, but upon hearing this, a flash of murderous intent quickly crossed his eyes, and he said softly:
"Alright, let them go for now..."
