When it came to Miss Lan's matter, Ye Cunsi clenched his fists tightly, the veins on the back of his hands bulging, and there seemed to be anger in his eyes, but he suppressed it again and again.
"So, go back and prepare tonight. I'll send someone to take you away first thing tomorrow morning. Don't come back."
Seeing Ye Cunsi suddenly look over with resentment in his eyes, Madam Zhou said, "This is not just my idea, but also the idea of all your elders in the Marquis's mansion."
Ye Cunsi froze. He had been crippled and his reputation was completely ruined. Even if his leg healed, he could not truly "stand" up.
However, in order to protect Ye Cunjin, the family still chose to send him away, letting him die in a place where no one knew him.
They always choose Ye Cunjin, just because Ye Cunjin is the eldest grandson?
Ye Cunsi found it ridiculous. He said with no small amount of sarcasm, "For the sake of the eldest son and the eldest grandson, the rest of the people can be sacrificed at will by the Marquis's mansion?"
For a fleeting moment, he wanted to reveal the truth about Miss Lan and let everyone see what a despicable and filthy person Ye Cunjin was!
However, he promised Miss Lan that he would keep it a secret. A man has things he should and shouldn't do. Even if he was crippled, even if his whole family abandoned him, he could never give up his personality and character!
Madam Zhou angrily said, "What do you mean by that? After Ye Qingxue returned to the Marquis's mansion, she hurt so many people. Is that all a lie?"
"You tried to defile Miss Lan, were discovered, were beaten until your leg was crippled, and were then punished by your mother and brother to reflect on your actions in the stable. Was that all a lie?"
"If you hadn't made your own mistakes, who in the Marquis's mansion would have wronged you or abandoned you? Cunsi, do you intend to be as stubborn as Qingxue? Do you want to disappoint and break the hearts of your entire family?"
Ye Cunsi closed his eyes. He couldn't care less about whether his family was disappointed or heartbroken. All he knew was that he was utterly disappointed, heartbroken, and even disgusted by his family!
Since that's the case, let's go. Let's go somewhere far away from the Marquis's mansion and start a new life. There's nothing wrong with that.
He never wanted to see this filth again.
He remained silent not to protect Ye Cunjin, but to protect Miss Lan and to prevent his own integrity from being shattered by his own broken promises. If that happened, what could he trust for the rest of his life?
After a long while, Ye Cunsi opened his eyes and squeezed out a sentence: "Fine, I'm leaving, and I'll never come back!"
Madam Zhou breathed a sigh of relief: "I will tell everyone that you are going to the estate to recuperate, and you will come home once your leg is healed. Tell Ye Qingxue the same thing, otherwise it will not be good for your reputation if everyone finds out the truth."
When Ye Cunsi returned to Guanju Courtyard, it was already late at night, and the surroundings were quiet and without a sound.
He parked his wheelchair at the door and sat there silently for a long, long time.
As the boundless darkness engulfed him, he realized that he was all alone on this road—yes, all alone.
He sat there until midnight, but didn't meet anyone.
He didn't know that Ye Qingxue had already left Guanju Courtyard.
She and Dongbai sneaked into Fushou Residence, waited for the right moment, and quietly headed towards the small Buddhist hall.
She sensed something was wrong here last time and had already discussed it with Dongbai, so they came here to investigate.
At this time, everyone is asleep.
Ye Qingxue found the mechanism of the small Buddhist hall. She asked Dongbai to guard outside, and she slipped inside and saw the skeleton.
The accident happened at that moment.
