His eyes widened for a second before narrowing in anger. A quiet rage built inside as his sister’s words rang in his ears.
He had kneeled in front of his father’s chambers and allowed the two stepmothers to humiliate him.
The Second Madame had even lashed him maliciously in order to get even for her daughters. All of this was in hope that Ye Tian Kuang would forgive his sister.
He perceived that he was willing to undergo any sufferings for her. But he forgot what a personality she had.
How could she possibly care for his forgiveness?
“I understand, Sister…..” Ye Feng Yu squeezed out these words as he lowered his head.
Ye Qing Luo recalled what she had spoken about her teachings towards her brother.
He was almost an adult. He had tried to be the honest, upright and brave man beyond all measures. There were many ways to protect a loved one. But he had chosen the most foolish one this time.
Even if he had fulfilled his father’s request, he probably would not spare her either. With too many doubtful factors, it was best to grasp all certainty in one’s hand.
She casted him an eyeful and watched as he leveraged his thoughts.
In spite of the excruciating pain, Ye Qing Yu pulled himself up.
His weak and shaky legs were dripping with blood, barely withholding the weight of his body.
Step by step, he made his way towards Ye Qing Luo.
A slow smile worked its way across her face as he advanced with each step. Inching slowly, he eventually reached to his sister.
“Well done. Now remember all the pain you have undergone today.” She grinned and stroked his messy hair.
“Send him to my courtyard” She instructed Zi Ling. With her permission, Zi Ling rushed up to Ye Feng Yu and aided him while supporting his arm.
Before the three of them had time to come out of the hall, they heard a sharp sneer: “Seventh Young Miss, the ancestral hall is a resting home for the Ye’s family generation ancestors, how dare you act unruly here!”
Outside the door, Second Madame stepped forward tardily from the crowd of several women.
“It is Old Master’s orders to punish the Eighth Young Master. Shouldn’t you seek for his approval before taking him away?” Hatred and enmity welled up between her brows as she stared at Ye Qing Luo.
How could she not resent her?
Both of her precious daughters were severely injured all because of her. Ye Qing Ling became disabled after her profound heart jade was destroyed. And if she had not managed to get her hands on the medication from her maiden’s home in time, her elder daughter Ye Qing Qian would had been disfigured!
All of these would not happen if not for this wench – Ye Qing Luo!
As the second mistress lifted one foot to step into the ancestral hall, a whispering voice echoed through: “Second Madame… accordingly to the rules, you are forbidden from entering the hall as well.”
Her face turned white upon hearing the sentence. What she loathed the most was the title given to her. She was the second wife of old master, considered only to be a concubine of the Ye’s. Her name was forbidden to be listed in the genealogy, let alone to access the hall.
“Not only is Seventh Young Miss ruthless, even her glib tongue can spare no man!”
The second lady’s sullen eyes narrowed as she clenched her fists under her long robe.
Ye Qing Luo raised her brow and responded with a faint sneer “are you human?”
Second Madame lifted her finger and pointed at the young matriarch as she quivered in anger:
“You… You…..”
Ye Qing Luo looked amused, leaned forward and said: “A good dog shall not get in the way”
The second lady was aghast by what she heard, gritted her teeth as she stared at her.
