C825 (1/2)
”Bastard!”
”Ye Ling, even though we do have a deep grudge between us, you have to give me an explanation today!”
”If you didn't kill Crown Prince Xuan Hong, how could I have been sent to the North Sea as a bargaining chip by our family?”
Leng Xueyan turned angry from embarrassment, her hatred for Ye Ling was not something that could be expressed in a few words. She told everything that she had done, including the cause and effect, only to see Ye Ling's face turning completely red.
What Leng Xueyan said was based on evidence. He, Ye Ling, had become everyone's hero, but he wanted to make Ye Ling pay for his sins. This was not fair to Leng Xueyan.
When Emperor Huang heard this, he could not sit still any longer. What Leng Xueyan said was indeed true, the matter would start from Ye Ling, naturally he could not allow Leng Xueyan to repay the debt.
”Your Leng Family is really full of cowards.”
”To think that you would think of such a method. It looks like you, Leng Xueyan, are only so mediocre in Leng Family?”
Ye Ling's expression was odd as he looked at Leng Xueyan with ridicule. After all, Leng Xueyan's father was the Patriarch and her grandfather was the Great Clan Elder. Even she couldn't protect him, what kind of status did Leng Xueyan have?
”Are you laughing at me?”
”Wasn't Leng Ruyan the same back then?”
”Could it be that you want me to learn from Leng Ruyan and become your scapegoat?”
Leng Xueyan clenched her teeth, and looked at Ye Ling with a gaze filled with anger. It was true that she liked Ye Ling, but that was in the past. Ye Ling did not have much of an affection towards her, and she wished that she could kill him as soon as possible.
However, because she had failed multiple times, she did not hold much hope. Ye Ling was not someone she could handle, but she would not throw away her life for Ye Ling.
Leng Ruyan was the best example, but he did not want to repeat the same mistake again. Moreover, Leng Xueyan had an enemy relationship with him, so why should he care about this girl's life?
”Well said.”
”Unfortunately, I don't care. What can you do to me?”
Ye Ling's expression was cold, looking at Leng Xueyan, he spoke indifferently. His tone was steady, not impatient, but it was extremely infuriating.
Hearing that, Leng Xueyan's face immediately turned pale white, and looked at Ye Ling with a resentful gaze. Biting his lips, his eyes turned bright red, and he hated Ye Ling to the core.
Ye Ling shook his head and ignored him, holding his teacup and drinking to his heart's content.
”You …!”
Leng Xueyan was furious, but when she saw Ye Ling's cold-blooded and emotionless appearance, she actually felt extremely wronged.
Emperor Huang frowned, it was rare for him to be at peace, but he was disturbed by Leng Xueyan.
Ye Ling frowned, the teacup in his hand suddenly shattered, water splashed in all directions, and Ye Ling suddenly stood up, staring at Leng Xueyan with his ice tiger eyes wide opened.
Thump! Thump!
Leng Xueyan's expression froze and fear surfaced on his face. He could not help but retreat quickly as his face turned purple and he looked like he was about to suffocate.
”You are crying in front of me, do you think I will sympathize with you? Or will they obey you? ”
”You want me to help you, yet you are making a ruckus here? Do you think that I am afraid of you, or do you think that I do not dare to touch you?”
Ye Ling's tone was sharp and his voice was high, his temper exploding in an instant.
He had been enduring Leng Xueyan for a long time. If it wasn't for the fact that Leng Xueyan was pitiful, he really would have hurt Leng Xueyan. How could he tolerate Leng Xueyan being so arrogant and despotic in front of him?
Leng Xueyan's face was as white as paper, her expression terrified and uneasy. It was her nature, she was born with the temper of a big miss, and she did not know how to beg for help, she only knew how to order and act arrogantly.
Only after being scolded by Ye Ling did Leng Xueyan realize that his tone was too unyielding, which was why he treated her so coldly.
It was no wonder that Ye Ling would like Leng Ruyan and ignore her. All of this was because of her temper and arrogance.
Leng Xueyan lowered her head in shame, her tears pouring down like rain, she had no face to face Ye Ling anymore, only that he slowly turned and actually chose to leave.
Her life should have been like this. She could only blame herself for not knowing herself, and even more so for not knowing her ugly appearance.
Seeing that Leng Xueyan was about to leave, Ye Ling had a strange expression.
”How do you want me to help you?”
Just as Leng Xueyan was dispirited and prepared to accept her fate, Ye Ling suddenly asked her.
Hearing Ye Ling's question, Leng Xueyan's body suddenly trembled, he could not help but stop in his tracks, and slowly turned his trembling body, his face filled with tears as he looked at Ye Ling.
”You … You want to help me? ” Leng Xueyan didn't dare believe it, she even thought that Ye Ling was probably going to make fun of her again, but she longed for that final sliver of hope in her heart.
”Don't look at me like that!”
”I just don't want to take advantage of those animals. It's not because of you that I chose to help you.”
Ye Ling revealed a serious look, looking at Leng Xueyan, he spoke some words that were not true, because he could not put down his pride.
Emperor Huang smiled but did not speak. When he shook his head to look at Ye Ling, he accidentally cast a glance out of the window, only to see him staring blankly out the window with narrowed eyes at the street below.
He was Leng Tianxing, standing in the middle of the streets with a strange expression on his face, and when he saw Ye Ling, he was actually nodding to him.
”Could it be that he brought Leng Xueyan here?”
Emperor Huang frowned, he suspected that Leng Tianxing was Leng Xueyan's grandfather after all, and finding them easily was not a problem for Leng Tianxing.
”Thank you.”
