Ye family hall.
Ye Jingjing's heart-wrenching screams filled the air.
It was as if she had suffered a huge injustice, painfully unbearable.
She forced Qinqin, completely broken down, "Qinqin, why did you conspire with Annuan to falsely accuse me like this? Why are you doing this? After so many years of affection between us, is it so easily shattered in your eyes?"
Clearly threatening Qinqin, telling her not to speak nonsense.
Qinqin was also crying uncontrollably.
She didn't want to expose it either.
Although the young miss had a bad temper and twisted personality in private, and was not very nice to her, the madam, the master, and others were good to their servants. As servants, they were grateful in this household.
She didn't want to hurt anyone in this family either.
Seeing Qinqin fall silent for a few seconds, Ye Jingjing thought she had persuaded Qinqin. After all, Qinqin had followed her for so many years, she knew Qinqin’s personality well. She was not the kind of person who would stir up trouble, and she was acting so distressed. Qinqin would not still oppose her!
So at that moment, she hurriedly pointed at Annuan and said painfully, "Sister-in-law, you can beat me, scold me, take revenge on me for my false accusations however you want. But why did you say I like my third brother? Even if I have a bad personality, I would not be so twisted as to like my own brother. You used this excuse to hurt me so deeply. You really want me to die in front of you all to prove my innocence..."
"If I hadn't discovered that you like Ye Jinghuai, I really would have admitted to falsely accusing you," compared to Ye Jingjing's emotions, Annuan was clearly much calmer. Her unhurried tone made her seem mature and stable, contrasting sharply with the uncultured Ye Jingjing who could only cry and scream now.
She said, "When I married Ye Jinghuai on the first day, I really didn't want to provoke any contradictions with anyone, let alone cause contradictions between everyone. I even felt that you disliking me and deliberately falsely accusing me was understandable. After all, Ye Jinghuai and I had a flash marriage and were unfamiliar with each other. You didn't know what kind of person I was. Judging from outside comments, your prejudice against me was acceptable. After all, in time, as we got to know each other, misunderstandings would be resolved."
Ye Jingjing looked at Annuan with tears streaming down her face.
She didn't know what this woman was plotting after saying all this.
But.
No matter what she said, she could not admit that she liked her third brother.
"But when I discovered that you like Ye Jinghuai, I felt that the matter really should not be left at that. After all, liking him is very inappropriate. You are siblings by blood. Frankly, feelings like that are filthy."
"I don't like him, I absolutely don't like him! My feelings for third brother are only sibling affection. Why do you have to portray it like this? Why do you have to make it sound so disgusting!" Ye Jingjing vehemently retorted!
"Qinqin," Annuan said to Qinqin, "take out the young miss's diary."
Qinqin's body shuddered.
At that moment, she was like a frightened bird.
Any little sound would startle her.
She looked up at Annuan, then silently turned to look at Ye Jingjing.
Ye Jingjing's expression changed again at that moment.
This time it was completely hideous.
No.
How did Annuan know about her diary?
How did Annuan know?
She couldn't.
She couldn't let everyone see that diary.
The diary not only recorded her feelings for Ye Jinghuai, but also the all the malicious things she had done and the darkness and twistedness in her heart that she wrote down.
Because she could not share her joys and successes with others, she wrote everything in her diary for herself to read.
Every time she read it, she would
feel so excited!
She had always been very careful, very careful not to let anyone know she kept a diary, except Qinqin!
Qinqin!
Ye Jingjing's eyes were like knives stabbing Qinqin.
Qinqin's body kept trembling.
Once when the young miss forgot to put away her diary, Qinqin came across it when tidying up for her. Out of curiosity, she flipped it open and read a little. After reading it, she was really shocked by what the young miss had written in her diary.
She didn't expect the young miss's heart to be so dark.
She didn't expect the young miss to resent everyone having a bad ending.
Including.
Her parents who gave birth to her and loved her so much.
She resented them for not giving her a healthy body, resented them for not being normal like others. She had even cursed them before, wishing they would get hit and killed by a car when going out!
The diary contained too many, too many cruel thoughts.
Of course it also mentioned the young miss having feelings for the third young master. It was written very clearly, a woman's feelings for a man, and even fantasized in the diary about them getting married...
Qinqin didn't even dare read further.
She was really frightened by the words in the diary.
"The diary is locked in the young miss's drawer." In the end, Qinqin still mustered the courage to speak out.
"Qinqin!" Ye Jingjing's frantic screams were piercing in the hall.
At that moment Qinqin had already gone upstairs to fetch the diary.
Ye Jingjing hurried to chase after her.
Annuan directly blocked her path.
Ye Jingjing's facial expression was truly distorted beyond recognition.
She knew very clearly that once the diary was exposed, she would really...really no longer have any face left to stay in this family.
She would only have...
Ye Jingjing's eyes flashed!
She suddenly turned and tried to crash into the hall's grandfather clock.
She wanted to use this method, threaten with death, to stop Qinqin from revealing the diary's contents!
Annuan saw Ye Jingjing's actions and reacted quickly, hurriedly reaching out to grab Ye Jingjing.
The moment she grabbed her, Ye Jingjing suddenly scratched Annuan's arm viciously with her nails.
Annuan winced in pain.
At the same time.
A figure directly pushed Ye Jingjing away.
Ye Jingjing was already weak to begin with.
At this moment, being pushed, she fell heavily to the ground.
She then saw Ye Jinghuai fiercely pull Annuan into his embrace, clearly protecting her.
Ye Jingjing looked at the two people in front of her with bloodshot eyes.
Seeing Ye Jinghuai protect Annuan like this yet be so cold and heartless to her, thinking of everything she had endured today, thinking of how her disguises were about to be completely exposed, thinking of the unprecedented humiliation she felt, she finally unleashed all the emotions in her heart.
"What's so lacking about me compared to Annuan, compared to those cheap women by your side!"
Her hideous roar finally exposed all her disguises over the years, finally exposed the feelings hidden in her heart without a trace left.
