Are those guards all useless? They didn't even anticipate the appearance of a woman.
wrong!
Those bodyguards were trained by me personally, how could they possibly fail me at such a crucial moment?
Could it be that... it's been taken care of?
The thought flashed through his mind, and a sense of vigilance suddenly arose in his heart.
A startling light flashed in Yi Youyou's eyes as she sat on the ground.
Tears streaming down her face, she wanted to cry for help, but she was afraid that if Chu Lin heard her speak, he would kill her.
Just as she was caught in a dilemma, the woman's clear voice rang out again from outside the alley, "I'll ask you one more time, what are you doing?"
Chu Lin had already sensed that something was wrong. This woman couldn't have appeared out of thin air; something unexpected must have happened.
At that moment, he decided that retreat was the best course of action, and that he should wait until he understood the situation before taking any action, so as to avoid losing more than he gained.
Thinking of this, he turned around and glared at Yi Youyou with his cold and murderous eyes, the warning in his eyes was very obvious.
Yi Youyou was so frightened that her whole body stiffened. Just when she thought the other party was about to make another move, he suddenly ran to the back wall, stood on tiptoe, and jumped off the wall like a martial arts master from ancient times.
The woman outside the alley didn't chase after them either.
After Chu Lin left, she walked step by step to Yi Youyou and reached out her hand, "Are you alright?"
Yi Youyou barely escaped death, and she hadn't even had a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.
Upon seeing the woman's face clearly, her pupils dilated, her breathing became rapid, and she clutched her heart, trembling uncontrollably, screaming, "Ahhh...a ghost!!!"
Yi Tianran narrowed her cold eyes and quickly went up to cover her mouth, warning, "If you yell one more time, I'll really send you to meet the King of Hell."
Yi Youyou's cry caught in her throat, she couldn't catch her breath, her face turned red, her eyes were filled with fear, and she couldn't say a word.
Seeing that she was almost suffocating, Yi Tianran finally took pity on her and let go of her hand.
She never expected that, besides her grandmother, the first member of the Yi family to know that she was not dead would be Yi Youyou.
However, there was nothing she could do. She received an anonymous message and was immediately kicked out of the Fu family home.
There wasn't a single second wasted on the road.
There was no time to disguise myself.
However, now that she's discovered it, why would she be afraid of Yi Youyou?
...
It took Yi Youyou a long time to recover from the intense fear and shock.
The two sat in a private room at a restaurant.
She stared at the unfamiliar yet familiar face before her, her expression complex, and spoke with difficulty, "Yi Tianran, you...you're still alive?"
One second she was thinking that Yi Tianran died too young, but the next second she was performing a zombie act for her.
Yi Tianran said in a cool tone, "If you're not alive, are you a ghost?"
Yi Youyou shuddered as if she had really seen a ghost, and quickly picked up the hot water on the table and took a couple of sips.
A warm feeling filled her stomach, and she finally felt alive again.
"So you weren't dead, you were just pretending to be dead..." Yi Youyou muttered to herself for a while, then realized, "The reason you did this was to seek revenge on the Yi family."
"So what if it is?" Yi Tianran raised an eyebrow, her expression cold. "How did your Yi family treat me? Shouldn't I take revenge?"
Yi Youyou was stunned for a moment, but instead of being angry, she laughed and said, "Good! What a revenge! You really deserve revenge. The Yi family are all a bunch of beasts in human form, especially our biological father. He is willing to sacrifice his daughter to achieve his goals. He should have been punished long ago."
Yi Tianran said indifferently, "He deserves his retribution, but shouldn't you?"
Yi Youyou's smile froze for a moment as she recalled the many evil things she had done to Yi Tianran when they were children, and a chill ran down her spine.
At that moment, she suddenly realized something, her eyes widening like saucers, "Could it be that all the bad luck that has happened to the Yi family recently is related to you?"
Yi Tianran gave a sarcastic smile: "Looks like you're not too stupid."
Yi Youyou recalled the past year or so, from smooth sailing to unbearable suffering and being beaten by everyone, all of which were related to Yi Tianran.
She sat behind them, watching the Yi family fight amongst themselves, while reaping the benefits of their internal strife.
For a moment, a deeper resentment towards Yi Tianran arose in her heart.
"Yi Youyou, things have come to this point, do you still want to blame me?" Yi Tianran saw through her thoughts at a glance and said sarcastically, "It's true that I've been dealing with the Yi family this past year, but I've never led you to make a mistake, have I?"
If you weren't so despicable and shameless, why would you plagiarize other people's work and become a despised scoundrel?
If you weren't so wicked, why would you have fallen into the sea and suffered irreversible damage to the tendons in your right hand?
If you weren't greedy and selfish, why would you have climbed the social ladder by relying on men and then used your body to sell your work to Fu Qingruo?
The series of backlashes you subsequently encountered were all caused by your own actions. If you had lived an upright and honest life, who could have persecuted you?
You brought this upon yourself.
Yi Youyou was so shocked by the rebuke that her face turned completely pale. As she carefully recalled the past, it seemed that she really had never done a single right thing.
For a moment, she looked indignant and resentful, still trying to justify herself, "Isn't it because my birth destined me to be inferior? If I don't work hard to climb up, how can others respect me?"
No one is born inferior unless you believe it yourself.
Yi Tianran said with exceptional rationality, "In this complicated relationship within the Yi family, Yi Hai is at fault, Liu Ruyi is at fault, but you were not at fault from the beginning."
You didn't choose to be the daughter of a mistress; after all, no one can choose their birth, but you can choose how you live your life.
You are bound by your own inferiority complex and arrogance, and you blindly believe that as long as you use any means necessary, you can achieve any goal.
To achieve your goal, you can even bully me and drive me away so that you can be the only young lady of the Yi family.
Good and evil will eventually be rewarded; it's not that they won't be, but that the time hasn't come yet.
"Look at yourself now, doesn't that perfectly illustrate this point?"
Yi Youyou felt as if a thick veil of shame had been ripped off, her cheeks turning blue and purple in turns, utterly humiliated.
But every word Yi Tianran said hit the nail on the head.
It made her feel so powerless to even argue.
An invisible silence spread through the air.
This is probably the first time in their lives that the two of them have been able to sit down and talk like this.
After a long silence, Yi Youyou's eyes reddened, and she said with a mix of grievance and bitterness, "So now, do you still want to take revenge on me, humiliate me, and see me become even more miserable before you're satisfied?"
