"Sir, I don't understand what you're talking about. What do you mean I did it? It's as if I was harassed by your Ye family. I'm already being lenient by not seeking an explanation from the Ye family. Is the Ye family trying to make things difficult for me? Elder Ye, although we've settled our score, there's no need to repay kindness with enmity."
Sheng Qian gave a cold laugh.
It's quite possible that Ye Yaodong would harass Sheng Qian.
The Ye family knew exactly what kind of person Ye Yaodong was.
Upon hearing this, Old Master Ye's face darkened.
This wretched child.
I warned him long ago not to have any thoughts about Sheng Qian, but he still took the opportunity to harass her.
Upon hearing this, Old Ye's face turned red with embarrassment.
“Qian girl, the Ye family came to apologize to you today, not to cause trouble for no reason.”
"Oh? So, when Mr. Ye and his son were trying to kill me in Xuan City, it wasn't on your orders, Elder Ye?" Sheng Qian said quietly.
Old Master Ye's expression turned ugly.
“Qian girl, this matter was not the Ye family’s intention. These two beasts were almost harmed because of my poor upbringing.”
“Since it wasn’t Elder Ye’s intention, then I have nothing more to say. The Ye family’s actions are too ruthless, which is not good for the entire family. Elder Ye, for the sake of your past help to me, I still want to offer this advice. If the Ye family doesn’t restrain itself, it will be taken over by someone sooner or later.” Sheng Qian said this out of consideration for Ye Li’s previous help in developing her coal mine.
Even without Sheng Qian saying it, Ye Li knew very well that if things continued like this, the Ye family would really be doomed.
"You're cursing our Ye family!" Ye Laosan angrily took two steps forward, intending to grab Sheng Qian, who was sitting opposite him.
He Weiguo stood calmly and stepped forward to block Ye Laosan, his eyes fixed on him like an eagle.
"Third brother!" Ye Lili shouted.
Ye Laosan retreated with a grim expression.
Sheng Qian's expression turned cold as she saw the murderous intent in Ye Laosan's eyes. "It seems that this Mr. Ye is very dissatisfied with me. Mr. Ye, I'll say it here today: if anyone in the Ye family dares to do anything to my side that is detrimental to me, I, Sheng Qian, will not let it go."
The Ye family members who had come with Ye Li's family darkened at her words.
A woman who lives off a man dares to speak out against the Ye family; she's utterly absurd.
Old Master Ye's expression was solemn.
"The Ye family will not do anything to harm you; I, this old man, assure you of that."
"That would be best."
Sheng Qian looked at Ye Laosan.
"Third brother."
Ye Li issued a warning.
Ye Laosan could only coldly say to Sheng Qian, "As long as Miss Sheng hasn't done anything wrong, we won't easily provoke her."
Sheng Qian nodded upon hearing this: "Then there's nothing else. Elder Ye, I've arranged accommodations here. If you'd like to stay for a while, I'll have someone show you around and let you experience the local customs and culture."
She still had to fulfill her duty as a host.
“I see you’re very busy here, so there’s no need to entertain us. There are still some troublesome matters to deal with at the Ye family. The main reason I came here is to apologize to you.” After the conversation just now, Ye Li also understood who was responsible for the injuries on Ye Fang and his son.
It's the Long family!
As for why, Sheng Qian had already made it very clear in her words.
Because Ye Fang and his son wanted her dead.
You've almost killed me, how could I possibly let you go?
If it were the Ye family, they would have gone even further.
Ye Fang and his son brought this fate upon themselves.
Ye Li did not blame Sheng Qian.
On the contrary, he wanted everyone to learn a lesson from the fate of Ye Fang and his son.
Sheng Qian saw Ye Li and the others off, and only turned back after watching them get into the car and leave.
"Dad, judging from what Sheng Qian said, she's clearly involved in this matter. Are we just going to let her off so easily?" Ye Laosan, who was in the same car as Ye Li, said these words coldly as soon as they got out.
Ye Li's forehead veins throbbed: "Do you think a little girl like her could do something like this? I'm telling you right now, you'd better not touch Sheng Qian, or I'll kill you too."
Ye Li was a seasoned veteran, and his aura was far superior to that of Ye Laosan, a middle-aged man. For a moment, the atmosphere inside the car was oppressive.
Ye Laosan's face turned a liverish color.
The old man actually threatened to kill his son for the sake of an outsider.
That's absolutely ridiculous.
Ye Laosan's eyes grew even more gloomy, and his resentment intensified.
*
The next day.
Sheng Qian led He Weiguo and Jiang Jinqiao to the neighboring Province C.
Meanwhile, in Wutong Village.
When Sheng Guanhua returned home from the university in town, he could hear the voices inside the house even through the outer wall.
It was his uncle Sheng Ping who brought Sheng Muchen to ask Sheng Li for a favor.
It should be said that he asked Sheng Qian to do something.
Their attitude was still as if it were perfectly natural.
Sheng Guanhua frowned upon hearing this.
“Shengli, I’ve helped you a lot before, haven’t I? That girl Shengqian cut ties with her family so easily, it’s really wrong of her. If it weren’t for her, you wouldn’t have fallen like this. Here’s thirty yuan, sister-in-law, please keep it and buy Shengli some food to help him recover. We can’t be as heartless as that girl Qian.” Shengping said, forcefully stuffing thirty yuan into Luo Minjuan’s hand.
Luo Minjuan's eyes lit up when she saw the thirty yuan.
Shengli's injury was to his brain, not elsewhere, so he was able to walk and jump again after returning, and his work was not hindered.
He looked very energetic. I wonder if it was because he ate too well in the hospital, because he became a little rounder and his skin became a bit fairer.
It doesn't feel like suffering, but rather like enjoying happiness.
After listening to Sheng Ping's words, Sheng Li looked at the thirty yuan that Luo Minjuan had taken and said, "I'll find some time to talk to that brat about Mu Chen's matter. As for whether she helps or not, that's not up to me. Don't blame me for not doing my part, brother."
