Chapter 12 A Disgraceful Exit
Suddenly, Wei Jinlian collapsed to the ground and began rolling around and throwing a tantrum, shouting, "That's right, it was all my idea, so what!"
"Ye Ran, don't look down on my son, he has nothing to do with me! He fainted as soon as he got home yesterday and didn't say a word! Everything I said to this brat was my decision!"
Ye Ran pressed on, unconvinced, "You mean? Then why didn't you say anything just now? As soon as he arrived, you took all the blame on both of you! Were you trying to cover for him?"
Wei Jinlian glared at Bai Yue resentfully, "It was all my idea..."
"Who told you to be her daughter? You're just like your mother, both despicable! I want to bring you into our house so I can torture you and make your mother suffer unbearable pain!"
Hearing this, Bai Yue and Ye Jun couldn't hold back any longer and said angrily, "Why? Haven't you done enough bad things to us over the years? What have we done to wrong you?"
But they all knew perfectly well that the reason the Xu family had been targeting the Ye family for so many years was because of what happened to Xu Qiang back then.
After Wei Jinlian's outburst, everyone's attention was successfully diverted.
Xu Qingyan looked at his mother in disbelief: "Mom! How could you do this? How am I supposed to face Uncle Ye and Aunt Bai after this? How am I supposed to face Ranran?"
At this moment, Xu Qingyan appeared to be overwhelmed with grief and suddenly fainted. Chaos ensued, and Wei Jinlian screamed as she took her son away. The crowd naturally dispersed.
Ye Ran watched all this indifferently, knowing in her heart that Xu Qingyan had escaped again this time.
Thinking back on Wei Jinlian's words, although part of them were meant to shift the blame for Xu Qingyan, weren't they also her true feelings?
No wonder Wei Jinlian was always very mean to Ye Ran after she married into the Xu family in her previous life, and never showed her any kindness.
It could be said that these few people from the Xu family were the people she hated most in her entire life.
A cold glint flashed in Ye Ran's eyes. It's alright, they managed to evade it this time, but it won't be so easy next time!
In his past life, they tormented her for so many years; this time, he will have plenty of time to play along with them...
Ye Ran smiled enigmatically, and when she turned around, she found that Lu Yi was still there, even smiling as he watched Xu Qingyan's departing figure, his eyes full of disdain.
Noticing her gaze, he suddenly turned around and smiled brightly at her, "The matter has been resolved. Are you alright?"
Such a close-up smile is simply too lethal; those affectionate peach blossom eyes, plus the cinnabar mole at the corner of her eye, make her look like a demon!
Ye Ran cursed under her breath, then said, her ears burning, "Thank goodness. By the way, thank you for saving my life. I will definitely thank you properly!"
"Oh?" Lu Yi raised an eyebrow with interest. "How are you going to thank me?"
Ye Ran was speechless for a moment: "This..."
Bai Yue smiled and gave her a push: "This child, why do you suddenly not know how to speak!"
"Lu Zhiqing, have you eaten yet? If not, why don't you grab something to eat here? Although I haven't prepared anything fancy, Ranran's cooking skills are just as good as any professional chef's!"
Ye Jun nodded in agreement.
Ye Ran looked at her mother with a slight headache: "Mom, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
Lu Yi is a loner who rarely interacts with others. Even the people at the educated youth settlement don't have a particularly good relationship with him. How could he possibly agree to have dinner at her house?
