Chapter 69 Can't Sleep



Ye Mansion.

Ye Jianyuan was completely stunned.

He didn't know how he had offended the Qiao family in the capital, nor did he know why the people from the Western Depot were also involved.

It seems someone has mistaken their own place for the scene.

The thought that someone would hide people in the woodshed in his backyard and even bring in people from the West Depot and the Qiao family was terrifying.

Two powerful figures he couldn't touch, yet this had happened in his own residence in the distant southern city, leaving him nowhere to vent his anger.

He had given up hope that this matter would eventually reach the capital, and how the people there would treat him was something he had given up on.

It seems he won't even have a place to stay in Nancheng anymore.

Thinking of this, Ye Jianyuan, who had weathered many storms, collapsed to the ground.

He had worked hard for so many years, always conscientious and diligent, but unexpectedly, at the crucial moment, when he was eligible to be transferred to the capital, this happened.

When Madam Ye and her daughter realized the seriousness of the situation, they were so shocked that they fainted and have not woken up since.

Just then, news of the poetry gathering arrived, and Lord Ye immediately broke down.

He had nothing to do with the current events, but because they occurred within his jurisdiction, and because someone from the Western Depot and the Qiao family was hiding in his backyard, he was being watched by them.

"Master—" The steward, seeing this, realized something was terribly wrong.

Even the master fell down, and the entire Ye family was doomed.

When the entire Ye residence was deathly silent, a dart suddenly shot into the ground right in front of Ye Jianyuan.

There was also a letter stuck on it.

Ye Jianyuan knew in his heart that the Ye family could not be saved.

Regardless of how the other party targeted him, he had clearly fallen victim to their scheme.

He was no longer able to struggle; all he could do was wait to die!

He was prepared to die when he suddenly saw the dagger stuck in the ground in front of him.

I only glanced at it; it was the end of the dagger.

"Get out!" Ye Jianyuan suddenly shouted, startling everyone around him.

"Get out of here!" Ye Jianyuan suddenly became angry and shouted at the crowd again.

The butler immediately led everyone away, closing the door the moment they stepped out.

Having followed Ye Jianyuan for so many years, I have never seen him with this expression before. I always felt that there was something strange about that expression that I couldn't quite put my finger on.

Ye Jianyuan, however, stared at the dagger on the ground.

Examine the markings on the dagger carefully.

A pattern of a black eagle's head.

He recognized the sign.

It is the symbol of the evil cult in the martial arts world.

He didn't know why the Demonic Sect was getting involved at this critical juncture.

He only knew that he had no chance of turning his life around and was about to die, but seeing this, he seemed to have a glimmer of hope.

Trembling, he drew his dagger and opened the letter below.

The moment he finished reading it, he seemed to see hope and a future.

Ye Jianyuan's face darkened, and he opened the door and strode out.

"master--"

Ye Jianyuan had no time to pay attention to that. He strode out of the Ye residence and headed straight for the Tao family.

......

The Chen family.

The Chen family has become infamous this time, but in a bad way.

Chen Siyuan was brought back by Tao Yifan, who told her not to be afraid, as he would send someone to protect her.

Chen Siyuan was grateful for Tao Yifan's kindness, and she was also very surprised that this happened today.

On the way back, she wondered who she wanted to hang out with.

No, the other party is more ruthless than I am.

Allowing Chen Xin and Chen Fan to live completely extinguished their hopes.

She seemed to imagine that Aunt Zhao would probably faint from anger upon receiving this news!

hehe--

While away from home, she worried about the Chen family's reputation. Back home, Tao Yifan had already explained the situation to his father, so she didn't need to worry about these things.

He hid in the yard and secretly enjoyed himself.

"Sister, what are you so happy about?"

Chen Siyuan smiled and patted Shang Zizhen's hair. "I was thinking about where to take Yuzhen to catch birds tomorrow?"

Chunlan and Chunping were speechless.

What happened today that wasn't thrilling? What does Miss mean by that?

They applauded the fate of Chen Fan and Chen Xin.

Evil people will be punished by evil people. They've been arrogant for so long, they've finally gotten their comeuppance!

At this point, is the young lady still thinking about where to go for fun tomorrow?

Shouldn't they avoid suspicion?

Should everyone know that Chen Xin and Chen Fan's affair has absolutely nothing to do with the young lady?

Chen Siyuan was unaware of the two maids' thoughts after settling the children.

She started looking at the account books again.

Chunlan and Chunping were very worried about the young lady's busy schedule.

After what happened today, other young ladies would have collapsed long ago.

But the young lady is still busy. What kind of mindset does she need to be so calm at this moment?

They didn't know what had happened during the time the young lady was missing, and as they recalled what they had seen, their eyes welled up with tears.

Why? The young lady is such a good person, why did she have to go through all this?

It hurts to think about it.

Even at midnight, the outside was still noisy, but the young lady was quietly looking at the account books, which her two maids couldn't bear to see.

Chunlan simply took the account book away. "Young Miss, why don't you rest?"

Chen Siyuan looked up at Chunlan and smiled slightly. "I also want to rest, but if I close my eyes, I'm worried I'll see things I shouldn't see."

“Young Miss.” Chunping stood to the side and cried.

Chunlan's eyes also reddened.

Who on earth is so despicable as to treat the young lady like this?
