Her words were trembling. Ye Chengzhi looked at her and slowly shook his head.
Just when she felt a little pleasure, Ye Chengzhi suddenly said: "I don't hate you, I hate you."
"Ah?" Ye Xueying was confused. She thought she had just hallucinated, "Second brother, what did you say?"
Ye Chengzhi glanced at her and repeated his words calmly: "I said I hate you."
Suddenly Ye Xueying felt as if her body had been struck by a violent thunder. She stared at Ye Chengzhi blankly, with only horror in her eyes.
"Why?" Ye Xueying asked with all her strength.
"You know what you did, you don't need me to say more, right?" Ye Chengzhi paused, a trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, "It's just that I didn't expect that you are the one who hides it the most. What kind of innocence and kindness are you?"
, your heart is black!”
Hearing this, Ye Xueying seemed to have thought of something. She stepped forward and explained quickly: "Did Xia Haitong say something to you? Second brother, listen to me, that's not the case. In fact, she is the bad person. She..."
"I won't allow you to slander Xiaotong!" Ye Chengzhi glared at Ye Xueying, "I hate duplicitous people like you the most. Get out of here!"
Ye Chengzhi's eyes were filled with anger, and Ye Xueying bit her lips, tears of grievance falling from her eyes.
Obviously Xia Haitong is the bad guy, why can't the second brother see her clearly now? Didn't Sister Siqin say that the second brother would be sober when he came back this time? Didn't she say that as long as she did what she asked, the second brother would be free from the witch?
Is he in control? Why does it seem like he is sinking deeper and deeper now?!
Ye Chengzhi looked at Ye Xueying, and he knew what she was thinking.
Of course he knew what Li Siqin said to her, and he also knew that she was instigated by Li Siqin to do this.
But he just hates her. In the final analysis, it is this woman who made his beloved Xiaotong leave him. But even without this, he would still hate her because she is the daughter of the Ye family and her surname is Ye!
"Second brother, please believe me. I didn't dare to tell you clearly before because I was afraid that you would contradict me, but Xia Haitong is really not a good person, really..."
A "pop" interrupted Ye Xueying's words, and bright red fingerprints fell on her tender skin. She covered her face with trembling hands and looked at Ye Chengzhi dully.
"I said, don't slander Xiaotong."
Ye Chengzhi's words were one part cold and one part angry, but Ye Xueying didn't listen to him at all because she was only immersed in her own world.
What was that just now? Second brother hit himself? Impossible, how is this possible!!
She saw Ye Chengzhi's mouth moving, but she couldn't hear what he was saying. This situation lasted for a while. She looked at his face and became more and more impatient, and saw his hand slowly raised.
, saw his warm palm approaching her again.
She instinctively closed her eyes, and at this moment, a stern voice stopped his actions.
"Chengzhi, what are you doing!" Wang Defang quickly came to Ye Xueying's side, protecting Ye Xueying like a hen protecting its chicks, "What do you want to do to Xueying?"
There was anger in Wang Defang's eyes. Ye Chengzhi watched her put down her hands. He turned his head and said, "It's nothing."
Ye Xueying's body was shrinking. Wang Defang's heart suddenly tightened when he saw the bright red palm prints on her face.
She has always warned herself not to be emotional towards the Ye family, because they are destined to be enemies, but...
She can't seem to do it.
Just like just now, she had been standing by the door watching everything happening inside. The first time Ye Chengzhi hit Ye Xueying, she endured it, but the second time, she couldn't bear it anymore.
Wang Defang shook her head. She suddenly remembered the moment when she married into the Ye family more than ten years ago. She still remembered that Chengxuan was seven years old and Xueying was only three years old.
She still remembered that when Ye Zhongzhang introduced her to them for the first time, although Ye Chengxuan's eyes were full of indifference and he refused to call her mother, there was no hostility, while Ye Xueying, at the age of three, only blinked her bright eyes and spoke with
She called her mother, mother, over and over in a childish tone.
She watched them grow up, watched her child integrate into their world little by little, watched the angelic little girl melt away the ice between each other, and watched the indifferent boy slowly open up to her.
Open your heart and start trying to accept them.
But at this moment, she ruined it all with her own hands.
The reason why Ye Chengxuan knew everything she did was because she deliberately told him, because she needed someone to hate her, so that her heart would feel better and she would have a reason to convince herself to keep hurting people, otherwise
How could such a coincidence happen that day? How could she suddenly get drunk and tell all this?
It's just that she regretted her subsequent negligence. She didn't expect that Chengzhi would actually come to see her. She shouldn't have been drinking and talking in her sleep at that time, so that maybe she would be able to discover Ye Chengxuan's departure and her son's entrance.
Wang Defang sighed inwardly, things have changed now, and it is useless to say more, but the cost of the negligence back then was too great.
"Chengzhi, apologize to Xueying."
Ye Chengzhi asked: "Why?"
Wang Defang frowned: "You hit your sister for no reason, don't you need to apologize?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Chengzhi sneered. Wang Defang looked at him and his heart suddenly sank.
Since when did her son have such a cold and disdainful laugh?
"Mom, how long are you going to keep pretending in front of her? You have been acting for nineteen years, aren't you tired?"
Wang Defang waved her hand and said sternly: "How presumptuous! Who taught you to talk to your mother with this attitude!"
"Isn't that you?" Ye Chengzhi paused, "It was you who told me that those who achieve great things should not stick to trivial matters, and even relatives can sacrifice themselves. It was you who told me twenty-three years ago..."
"That's enough! Stop talking!"
There was a hint of panic in Wang Defang's eyes, and Ye Xueying looked at them with confusion and confusion. From the beginning, it seemed that they were saying something she didn't understand.
What on earth is the second brother talking about, and why does he say that his mother is acting? What does it mean to sacrifice one's own relatives, and what happened twenty-three years ago?
Wang Defang took a breath and gently raised Ye Xueying's head. She took her hand and said softly: "Xueying, let's go out to eat with mom."
Ye Xueying looked at Wang Defang, and her peripheral vision fell on Ye Chengzhi. She wanted to say something, but she still couldn't. In the end, she could only cowardly follow Wang Defang and leave the room.
Ye Chengzhi looked at the two figures, the coldness just now suddenly disappeared, and a ripple appeared in his eyes.
A sudden ringtone interrupted his thoughts. He pressed the call button and talked in detail about tomorrow's events with the person on the other end of the phone.
Noon the next day.
Ye Chengxuan and Xia Haitong were sitting in a taxi. Their eyes were covered with black cloth and their hands were tied behind their backs.
The car seemed extremely quiet along the way, so quiet that Xia Haitong didn't even dare to take a breath. Until the moment they got off the car, the person who sent them there never said a word.
Cliff edge.
"Can you untie the black cloth now?"
Ye Chengxuan's voice broke the silence. The man in a coat untied the black cloth for them, but the ropes on their hands still bound them.
Ye Chengxuan looked around and asked, "Where is Ye Chengzhi?"
The man didn't reply.
Ye Chengxuan didn't ask any more questions. At this moment, Ye Chengzhi's figure came into their eyes.
Ye Chengxuan frowned and asked: "Where is Xueying?"
"Don't worry, she's behind." Ye Chengzhi paused and turned to look at the person, "Look, is she here?"
Ye Xueying's figure gradually grew larger, and beside her was Wang Defang.
Ye Xueying looked at Ye Chengxuan and Xia Haitong in shock: "Brother, you, how come you are still here, and you are still with this woman?!"
"Brother, are you satisfied with this?" Ye Chengzhi took two steps forward and extended his hand to Xia Haitong, "Xiaotong, come over to me."
"Wait a minute, I want to say a few words to my sister to make sure it's her." Ye Chengxuan took two steps forward and looked at Ye Xueying tenderly, "Xueying, are you okay?"
Ye Chengxuan's voice brought Ye Xueying back to reality. Only then did she realize that her eldest brother had been tied up behind her back!
"Brother, how come you were tied up?!" Ye Xueying rushed towards Ye Chengxuan and released the rope for him, "How could this happen... What on earth is going on?!"
"Xueying, do you still remember the gift that your elder brother gave you on your eighteenth birthday?" Ye Chengxuan leaned down and gently stroked the hair on her forehead, "The share I gave you in private."
Ye Xueying nodded: "One hundred paper cranes."
Ye Chengxuan's eyes showed tenderness. He hugged Ye Xueying into his arms and said slowly: "Xueying, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. It's my brother who has caused you to suffer so many grievances." He let go of Ye Xueying and asked again.
, “Did they do anything to you?”
Suddenly Ye Xueying thought of the scene last night, but she still shook her head and said: "Second brother and mother are of course very good to Xueying, but eldest brother, why are you here?"
Before Ye Chengxuan could reply, Ye Chengzhi snatched the words away: "Are you done talking about old times?" He took a step forward, "When you're done talking, give them all back to me."
Ye Chengxuan stepped forward and blocked them: "What if I say no?"
The next second, the man on the side caught Ye Xueying. Ye Xueying resisted in horror, while Xia Haitong carefully twisted her wrist, and she was about to break free from the restraints on her hand.
"Bring her here." There was no warmth in Ye Chengzhi's words.
Ye Xueying was surprised: "Second brother, what on earth is going on? What happened to you, eldest brother and mother?!"
"Xueying, stop calling these two people mother and second brother, they are not worthy!" Ye Chengxuan took Ye Xueying's hand, pointed at the two of them and said, "This so-called mother killed our father and our mother.
Your so-called second brother is no longer the same person as before, and now he will only use and hurt you!"
Ye Xueying shook her head and looked at Wang Defang and Ye Chengzhi with pleading eyes: "Mom, second brother, tell me what's going on? Why did the eldest brother suddenly say such strange things?" She paused and focused her gaze on
On Wang Defang, "Mom, is this also Xia Haitong's doing?"
Wang Defang was about to speak, but was overtaken by Ye Chengzhi: "I told you not to slander Xiaotong again, wasn't the lesson last night enough?" He paused, "Your elder brother is right, my mother did treat you
