Ye Cunjin slowly retreated until he was in a completely safe position. Then he stopped, raised his hand, and the seven or eight guards behind him rushed towards Ye Qingxue and Ye Cunsi.
Ye Qingxue took back the whip and swept it horizontally, causing the guards to retreat. Before they could react, Bai Qi had already leaped up and pounced on them, biting and attacking.
These people were attacked and fell to the ground one after another, powerless to fight back, and the courtyard was in chaos.
After an unknown amount of time, a servant ran over from some corner and whispered something in Ye Cunjin's ear. Ye Cunjin's fierce aura subsided considerably, as if he had accomplished something.
He said in a deep voice, "Everyone, stand back!"
After the guards retreated behind him, he glared at Ye Qingxue and Ye Cunsi: "I will remember what happened today. Even if you kneel down and beg for mercy in front of me in the future, I will never let you go!"
Ye Qingxue and Ye Cunsi said in unison, "We're ready anytime!"
After they finished speaking, they looked at each other, both surprised by the tacit understanding between them.
Ye Cunjin snorted coldly and left with his guards. In any case, the imperial edict ordering Ye Qingxue's death would definitely be issued before nightfall, and he wouldn't have to wait too long to avenge today's grudge!

Ye Qingxue frowned, recalling Ye Cunjin's various actions just now, as well as the servant who ran up to Ye Cunjin to whisper to him at the end. She suddenly asked, "Is Xiangsizi still in Guanju Courtyard?"
Qiu Shen walked over and said, "I was just about to tell Miss about this, but Xiang Si Zi said that he has a patient outside and he has to go and treat him. If he doesn't go, the patient's life will be in danger."
He said he was treating that person when he was forcibly abducted, forcing him to stop the treatment. He didn't know if the person was still alive and waiting for him.
"Because Aunt Liu has someone to take care of her, he left in a hurry. However, he has only been gone for a short time and should not have left the manor yet. Does Miss need to see him?"
Ye Qingxue frowned, a bad feeling creeping into her heart. After pondering for a while, she suddenly realized something and immediately called Dongbai over, whispering in his ear, "Go and follow Xiangsizi."
After saying that, Ye Qingxue raised an eyebrow, her eyes cold: "Qiushen, tell everyone to get ready and come with me out of Guanju Courtyard to watch a grand show!"
