Chapter 236: The Heroine Whose Luck Was Taken Away
Ye Ruoxing's eyes were as firm as a rock. She said, "This servant has a clear conscience."
For the first time, Master Ye was shocked by her gaze. He had never expected that his little daughter, whom he had never taken seriously, could have such a shocking look in her eyes.
He originally planned to interrogate her and try to use his authority to force her to tell the truth and not lie.
Seeing her current attitude, he changed his mind instantly. He suddenly had an idea that even if he really wanted to use his power to force her to bow her head, it might be difficult.
So, he planned to find more people to inquire about what happened at the Xu family today. He sighed and waved his hand, "Forget it, forget it. You can leave first."
Ye Ruoxing then stood up from the ground, bent her knees slightly, and said, "In that case, I will withdraw first." Ye Ruoxing breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. After paying her respects, she was about to walk out, but as soon as she turned around, someone grabbed her wrist forcefully.
"Hiss" she gasped in pain, frowned slightly, turned her head to look at Ye Yichen who was holding her hand, suppressed her impatience, and asked, "Master, is there anything else?"
Ye Yichen was not going to let her go. Ye Furong's sobbing made her feel extremely distressed. He originally wanted Ye Ruoxing to kneel down and apologize to Ye Yichen, but thinking of her injuries, he took a step back and said, "Don't leave. You must apologize to Ye Furong before you can go back."
He felt that he had already made a big concession. Even though Ye Ruoxing had gone too far this time, he didn't ask her to kneel down. He just asked her to apologize, which was already a light concession.
Ye Ruoxing was stunned. She turned around and looked at Ye Yichen with a determination she had never seen before. She flatly refused and said, "Master, although I am of humble status, I am also a human being. I also have dignity. I beg you not to force me. I just want to live in peace."
She meant that she didn't want to kneel anymore. Ye Yichen felt that she was simply being too arrogant. He said coldly, "Don't go too far. You humiliated Furong so much, and I just asked you to apologize, but why is it so difficult for you to say it? Don't you always call yourself a slave? What, do you think a slave still needs dignity?"
"I am also a human being." Ye Ruoxing suddenly raised her head, staring at Ye Yichen intently. She said, "Even ants have dignity. They would rather die than bow to a powerful enemy. What's more, compared to ants, I am still flesh and blood."
Ye Yichen was provoked by these words. He pushed Ye Ruoxing to the ground with all his strength and shouted angrily, "Do you really think I haven't seen through your tricks? I tell you, even if my father was deceived by you, I won't. Kneel down here. If you don't apologize to Furong today, you can't leave here smoothly."
This was a resolute statement. Today, Ye Ruoxing must be forced to kneel. Ye Ruoxing sneered and suddenly looked at Master Ye and said, "Didn't Master Ye want to know if I knew the Emperor's uncle?"
"There's no smoke without fire. I'm sure Master Ye has heard the rumors on the street a few days ago. I have only one thing to say now: the Emperor's uncle has agreed to welcome me into his palace. In other words, I'm his person now. With such status, how dare you touch me?"
She originally didn't plan to move the emperor's uncle out, but under the circumstances, she had to move the emperor's uncle out.
Master Ye didn't expect Ye Ruoxing to suddenly mention the emperor's uncle. There was a hint of surprise in his eyes when he looked at Ye Ruoxing, and when he looked at Ye Yichen again, he was somewhat dissatisfied.
In any case, Ye Ruoxing is the legitimate daughter of the Ye family. Asking a legitimate daughter to kneel down seems a bit inappropriate.
But Ye Ruoxing's attitude made him even more unhappy. After all, no one likes to be threatened, especially someone like Master Ye, who usually has the final say in the Ye family.
After all, when he was trying to please everyone in the officialdom, he was just a small official of the sixth rank. This made him feel inferior when facing those old foxes, and he had to curry favor with them on a daily basis.
So when he returned to the Ye family, he naturally had to put on airs. He had always suffered in official circles, and if he continued to suffer when he returned home, wouldn't it be a waste of his life?
"evil creature!"
Master Ye slammed the teacup in his hand to the ground. With a "bang", the teacup fell to the ground and broken porcelain pieces flew everywhere.
He looked at Ye Ruoxing and scolded her with a stern face, "Do you think you can do whatever you want now that you have a backer? What happened? Where did that submissive look of the whole family in your debt go? I tell you, even if the emperor's uncle came today, I would still beat my daughter."
……
As soon as Master Ye finished speaking, Ye Yichen immediately handed him a whip. It was a horse whip. Even a horse couldn't bear it, let alone a delicate girl like Ye Ruoxing.
Looking at the whip about to fall, Ye Ruoxing had already made a decision in her heart. If Master Ye really dared to hit her, she would run away decisively.
Although she could ask the system for medicine to block out the pain, this beating was not worth it. She had put in so much effort these days to develop the original owner's body into its current state. If it was injured, it would not be worth it.
What's more, she had originally planned to find a suitable opportunity to attack the emperor's uncle these days. If this left some marks on her body that could not be eliminated in a short time, her plan would be greatly reduced.
Seeing that Master Ye had already swung the whip, Ye Ruoxing silently counted in her heart, 1, 2... Before she counted to three and was about to run, a cold voice came from the door.
"Master Ye is so arrogant."
Mr. Ye's hand remained in mid-air. Everyone in the Ye family looked up and saw Jiang Wuchen walking in from the door.
Ye Ruoxing's face was full of shock. She didn't understand why Jiang Wuchen came here. No matter how she explained, Jiang Wuchen would never come here.
Although Ye Ruoxing didn't understand, since he had already arrived, everyone immediately knelt down to greet him.
"I've met the emperor's uncle."
……
Jiang Wuchen just glanced at these people coldly, then walked up to Ye Ruoxing, frowned at her current miserable state, took out a handkerchief from his bosom, carefully wiped the water stains from her forehead, and asked her, "Why did you get yourself so embarrassed?"
"My humble daughter greets the Emperor." Ye Ruoxing's eyes widened. After a moment of surprise, she immediately lowered her head and smiled faintly, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Emperor."
Seeing is believing. Now her miserable life has been fully revealed to Jiang Wuchen, which just corresponds to what she said to him before.
But when she thought of this, Ye Ruoxing instantly understood why Jiang Wuchen happened to appear here. She raised her eyes to look at Jiang Wuchen and gave him an ambiguous smile.
