Chapter 12 Innocent(1/2)
Blood flowed out from the tip of the sword, staining Ye Zhaoyan's purple robe red.
Ye Zhaoyan's eyes widened. She never imagined that this would happen.
"You know the consequences of betrayal!" An angry shout came from the archery station.
The young man immediately calmed down his expression and returned to his previous indifference.
His mother's safety made him no longer hesitate.
His dignity, innocence and life no longer belong to him.
Looking at Ye Zhaoyan whose shoulder was bleeding, he closed his eyes, picked her up by the waist, and walked out of the dense forest.
"You!" Ye Zhaoyan pointed at the other party, his eyes full of anger, "Why are you..."
Before she could finish asking, the boy flicked his wrist and tore her sleeve.
The clothes on her body were already in tatters, revealing her pure white skin, and now her pair of slender arms were even more exposed.
Ye Zhaoyan instantly understood his intention.
Her eyes were wide open, filled with disbelief.
Unexpectedly, Xue Huaidan would go to such lengths to prove that her innocence had been ruined.
Her mind raced, and she quickly thought of the trip south.
If she is innocent and disgraceful, it will be inevitable for her to go south to avoid the limelight, and it will be natural for her to even be set up by him to marry her.
Xue Huaidan planned so boldly for his own ambition.
Tiger poison does not even eat seeds.
This made her wonder if she was his biological daughter.
Ye Zhaoyan's heart gradually became cold.
The young man made no further moves, he just hugged her tightly and walked out.
"Sir, the man has been found! In the back mountain forest." A secret guard rushed over and reported to Xue Huaidan.
After hearing this, Xue Huaidan's brows relaxed and the corners of his lips raised into a smile.
Although things were turbulent, he was more than ten years more experienced than Ye Zhaoyan.
How can a daughter outsmart her father?
At this time, Xue Zhiyan, who was wearing a cloak, slowly walked out of the temple with the support of Lianshuang.
Even though she had changed her inner clothes to cover up the miserable state of her body, it still revealed that something was wrong.
The temples under the hood were sweaty and there were suspicious red marks on his face.
The whole person was extremely haggard.
"What are you doing here?" Xue Huaidan looked at Xue Zhiyan, a look of displeasure rising between his brows.
Xue Zhiyan lowered her head, tears flowing uncontrollably.
She looked very embarrassed, which made people think about that.
Xue Huaidan was a little disgusted.
But if that was the case, she probably wouldn't have the shame to see him at this moment.
His expression softened slightly, but he still said with a straight face: "What happened?"
"I...I..." Xue Zhiyan heard his question and felt a sense of grievance welling up in her heart. She couldn't help but swallow more and couldn't say a complete sentence.
What should she say? She said that she was kidnapped in the backyard. The thief tore her clothes and got close to her, but he did not take the last step.
The most important thing is that she cannot let others know that she is being frivolous.
But what is the explanation for this fascinating appearance?
Seeing this, Xue Huaidan felt a little annoyed in his heart.
He was a man in his prime and not a fool, how could he not know what she was thinking.
He took a deep breath, tried hard to control the anger in his heart, and asked: "Why did you stay in the inner courtyard just now?"
Xue Huaidan clearly sent people to disperse the redundant female relatives.
Xue Zhiyan was startled when she heard this and shook her head in panic.
Xue Huaidan already understood when he saw this.
His carefully designed trap actually caused his niece to run into it.
It is also one of the most outstanding training places.
In order to clear up the relationship, he found a secret chess player who had never shown up.
The man he raised as An Qi was unknown to anyone in the Ye family.
This was originally a great advantage, but it became the biggest flaw in the failure of the matter.
What a strange combination of circumstances.
"You are so disappointing." Xue Huaidan's tone was full of disgust.
Fortunately, he only asked the man to show off, and Xue Zhiyan must be in perfect condition at this moment.
As long as she covers it up, she can still be useful.
Seeing this, Xue Zhiyan gritted her teeth and knelt on the ground.
"Please uncle punish me."
Xue Huaidan pondered for a moment and said: "Because you are ignorant and it is your first offense, I will forgive you this time. But don't let anyone know about this!"
"Thank you uncle, Zhiyan realized that she was wrong." Xue Zhiyan kowtowed quickly.
Lianshuang beside her also trembled when she heard this and knelt down together.
Xue Zhiyan noticed the movement and raised her eyes to glance at Lianshuang.
The person who knew the inside story was the maid next to him who had served Ye Zhaoyan.
She couldn't help but pinch her palms and made up her mind.
Xue Huaidan nodded, his eyes lingering on Lianshuang for a moment.
Lianshuang must have seen something, but this girl is still useful.
"You should step back first!"
Here, Ye Zhaoyan was taken to a hillside by a young man in Tsing Yi.
The hillside is surrounded by open fields.
The cold wind howled under the setting sun, making the trees rustle.
The young man stopped on the hillside and rested for a while.
Ye Zhaoyan raised his eyes and saw that there was heavy fog under the hillside, and he could vaguely see a small river with fast water.
This is a hidden path going down the mountain.
"Why are you taking me down the mountain?" she asked in disbelief.
"Of course I'm going to give you a ride!" The young man didn't answer directly and bent down to hug her again.
His eyes are very beautiful, like a deep pool.
There was just a heavy layer of indifference and alienation in his eyes.
This is a person who looks gentle but is actually cold.
Ye Zhaoyan suppressed the sense of uncertainty in his heart and asked softly: "How do you think about what I just discussed with you?"
"I can't bear the risk, so I won't accompany you." The young man still kept walking, his expression calm.
Ye Zhaoyan heard the alienation in the other person's tone. She raised her head and met those dark and deep eyes.
The other party's eyes were very cold, even under the sunset, they still exuded a chill, making her feel uncomfortable all over.
A strong sense of despair surged into my heart.
After she was taken down the mountain, what greeted her might not be that simple.
I didn't see anyone along the way. Ye Zhaoyan didn't believe that Xue Huaidan was afraid of embarrassing her and went out of his way to avoid suspicion.
She always felt that there was a darker trap waiting for her ahead.
Suddenly, she saw a team of carriages and horses passing by in the distance.
Maybe it will be a turning point for her salvation!
The idea was squashed as soon as it came up.
Because she saw Butler Xue Er.
He is about sixty years old, wearing a gray brocade robe, with a half-length beard and hair, and a very kind face.
