But just then, a familiar voice rang out from outside the door: "Ye Cunjin, you first tried to defile Miss Lan but failed, then you ruined her reputation, and now you want to hurt her? Are you even human?!"
It was Ye Cunsi's voice!
It was Ye Cunsi's voice!
Lan Yi's movements came to an abrupt halt.
Ye Cunjin was also shocked, never expecting that the lame Ye Cunsi would appear here.
Moreover, didn't the old lady say that she had sent Ye Cunsi to the estate? Why is he here?
Ye Cunjin took a deep breath, strode forward and opened the door. Sure enough, he saw a wheelchair in the courtyard, and Ye Cunsi was sitting in it.
He was just a cripple in a wheelchair, yet he was acting so arrogantly.
Seeing that he was all alone, Ye Cunjin didn't pay any attention to him, walked out the door, and went up to him.
"Did your second brother push his wheelchair here himself? Did General Lan and his wife allow you to come in? Or did you sneak in? Believe me, if I shout 'Stop thief!' you'll be thrown in jail."
Ye Cunsi gripped the armrests on both sides tightly: "You were the one who tried to tarnish Miss Lan's reputation back then! While I was comforting Miss Lan, you called other people over and ruined my and Miss Lan's reputation!"
“We haven’t pursued the past, but you still dare to come to our door and bully Miss Lan today. Do you have no heart at all? Are you even human?”
Ye Cunjin sneered, bent down slightly, approached Ye Cunsi's face, and looked him down.
"How am I not human? I defiled Miss Lan, so isn't it only right that I come to ask for her hand in marriage today?"
"Besides, Miss Lan's reputation has been ruined. My proposal to her is to save her from dire straits. What's wrong with that? I'm doing a good deed!"
Ye Cunsi wanted nothing more than to punch him and smash his smug face, but he refrained from doing so for the time being.
He simply grabbed Ye Cunjin by the collar, pulled him over, and said through gritted teeth, "You came to ask for Miss Lan's hand in marriage not because you realized your mistake, nor because you wanted to save her from her dire straits!"
"Wei Jingtong has been imprisoned, and the position of Minister of War has become vacant. You want to take the position! General Lan is a second-rank general in the current court. If you marry Miss Lan, you can get General Lan's support! The position of Minister of War will be yours for the taking!"
"You have already ruined Miss Lan's reputation in the past, and today you want to ruin her life as well. You are worse than an animal!"
Ye Cunjin was slightly taken aback, then sneered: "So you knew, huh? But so what? Your reputation is completely ruined. Even if you expose it now, who will believe you?"
He was almost about to get the position of Minister of War, but Ye Qingxue ruined it.
Fortunately, he can still follow the Lan family's path.
He used to bully Lan Yi in order to destroy Ye Cunsi, but now he can use Lan Yi to elevate himself to a higher level.
There's nothing wrong with it; Lan Yi is quite pretty.
Ye Cunjin's face was full of wickedness: "No one believes you! The Lan family will only rush up and beat you to death! Second brother, should I call them all in? Or should you go and persuade Miss Lan to obediently marry me?"
Ye Cunjin had his back to the bedroom door and didn't notice that when Ye Cunsi grabbed his collar, Ye Qingxue took the opportunity to slip into the room and close the door.
Lan Yi saw her, paused for a moment, and became very wary: "You..."
Ye Qingxue covered her mouth, pulled her against the door, and listened to the conversation between the two Ye brothers outside.
Lan Yi's face grew paler and paler as she listened, her body trembling slightly. Ye Qingxue gripped her shoulders tightly and whispered:
"Did you hear what that beast said? It's because you gave in when he bullied you in the past that you've ended up like this today!"
Lan Yi stared blankly at her, wondering if the woman before her meant that she had done something wrong in the past.
"Shouldn't a girl protect her reputation when she encounters that kind of thing? Otherwise, if I'm forced to marry him, I'd rather die!" Lan Yi said, his eyes filled with resentment.
