In the garden of Ye Mansion, Ye Zhaoyan was being led to the main hall by Granny Li.

The morning dew was still heavy, and the wind felt slightly cold on my face.

The flower branches swayed gently in the wind, and the leaves made a soft sound when they fell to the ground, looking particularly hollow.

The chirping of birds could be heard faintly outside the courtyard wall.

There are many more guards in Ye Mansion than usual.

Ye Zhaoyan stretched out his right hand and smoothed the hair from his temples behind his ears, making his eyes clearer.

In the past few days, she had been paying attention to Xue's movements, but she did not find any clues and had no idea what Xue Huaidan was planning.

"Miss Zhaoyan, come with me quickly."

Seeing that her steps were a little hesitant, Grandma Li hurriedly waved to her.

After learning the lesson from last time, she would not dare to cause trouble for Ye Zhaoyan again openly.

It's just that today's errand was handled by the old lady herself.

What's more, after today, the wind direction of Ye Mansion may change drastically.

Thinking of this, she quickened her pace.

As soon as they walked out of the garden, they saw a figure in gorgeous clothes.

Xue Zhiyan stood at the entrance of the arch and saw Ye Zhaoyan and hurriedly greeted him.

"Sister Zhaoyan, here."

Seeing Xue Zhiyan looking at her passionately, the corner of her mouth curled into a stiff arc.

"Sister Xue, is there something wrong?"

Her tone was polite and distant, neither salty nor cool.

Xue Zhiyan glanced at the nanny, and she quickly left.

"Sister Zhaoyan." She took Ye Zhaoyan's left hand warmly and said affectionately, "Thanks to you for saving me that day, I was not harassed by that deceitful disciple."

Ye Zhaoyan was slightly startled, and the scene of praying in the backyard of the hidden temple instantly appeared in his mind.

She pulled out her hand without leaving a trace, and said in an indifferent tone: "I don't know whether Sister Zhiyan has been harassed by a deceitful person."

Ye Zhaoyan saw through her intentions at a glance when she went to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing.

Xue Zhiyan actually had a wishful thinking and asked Ye Zhaoyan to clarify the dirty things that day for her.

"Isn't sister Zhaoyan blaming her sister? It was my sister who was rude that day, and I hope sister Zhaoyan won't care about it."

Xue Zhiyan confessed to Ye Zhaoyan sincerely.

Thinking about the big event that was going to happen in the main hall later, she had to do some work in advance.

If Ye Zhaoyan reaches a desperate situation and bites her, the gain will outweigh the loss.

"Sister's words are serious. If sister is offended by that person, Zhaoyan really shouldn't be allowed to testify."

Ye Zhaoyan said lightly, with a distant smile on his face.

She hit the nail on the head with just one sentence.

Xue Zhiyan's face immediately lost its composure, and her pretty face turned red.

"Sister Zhaoyan, I was reckless that day and it was also due to urgency. I hope sister Zhaoyan will understand me..."

Ye Zhaoyan chuckled softly when he heard this, and said in a cold tone: "Sister, don't worry, Zhaoyan is a person who knows his grudges clearly. It was my sister who blocked the trap for me, and I suffered that humiliation. Zhaoyan will never do it."

Forget this kindness."

Her tone was calm, but every word pierced Xue Zhiyan's heart like a sharp blade.

Xue Zhiyan's face turned pale.

She originally thought that as long as she spoke nicely, Ye Zhaoyan would willingly agree to help her.

But I didn't expect that this girl was so difficult to deal with. She showed weakness again and again, but this girl actually refused to let go.

It seems that she is still too naive. This little bitch is simply indifferent...

She gritted her teeth, feeling secretly resentful.

If her uncle hadn't planned something like that and Ye Zhaoyan was so cunning, how could she have encountered such a thing.

At this moment, I still have to endure such ridicule for my life.

After Xue Zhiyan's expression changed several times, she finally returned to normal. She raised her head and looked at Ye Zhaoyan and said with a smile: "Sister Zhaoyan is indeed a sensible person. In this case, sister will not beat around the bush. If sister Zhaoyan can help me,

I will also reciprocate the favor and explain something to Sister Zhaoyan."

She stretched out her slender white jade fingers and gently pulled the corner of Ye Zhaoyan's clothes with a low attitude.

Now that Ye Zhaoyan's reputation has been irreparably damaged, no matter how much she tries to explain, it's just to put it nicely.

It was different when Ye Zhaoyan said a few nice words for her. The only person who witnessed the truth in the Yin Temple that day was the maid.

And Xue Huaidan, who knew something inside... would naturally keep it a secret for her.

But Ye Zhaoyan...

If something unpleasant came out of her mouth, it would probably arouse others' suspicion.

Although there has been no movement since Ye Zhaoyan came back, if it were today... she was a little worried about what Ye Zhaoyan would say when the key point came.

After all, it would be difficult if Ye Zhaoyan took revenge on her because of the grudge.

"Oh?" Ye Zhaoyan raised his eyebrows and said in a neither salty nor cool tone, "How can I help you?"

Xue Zhiyan lowered her eyes slightly, covering up the cunning look that flashed quickly in her eyes.

"Sister Zhaoyan only needs to say that that day when we were praying in the house, that disciple was not alone with me..."

Her tone was full of pleading, which made Ye Zhaoyan feel sick.

Not alone?

That's her, Ye Zhaoyan, and Na Deng's disciple together?

Or three of us together?

Then whose voice should the woman in the room belong to?

She was not a fool, so she naturally heard what Xue Zhiyan was thinking.

I couldn't help but find it funny. Did Xue Zhiyan really think that she was an idiot?

He actually wanted her to be his scapegoat.

Ye Zhaoyan looked puzzled and asked in a somewhat surprised tone: "Sister Xue, I'm sorry for Zhaoyan's stupidity, but there are clearly only two people in the room. If the woman is not you, who should she be?"

When Xue Zhiyan heard this, she cursed in her heart, damn bitch, for not accepting her favor.

However, she only thought about this in her heart and would not say it out loud.

She smiled slightly and said: "Sister Zhaoyan, why do you think so? I just want my sister to be a witness for me! What's more, my sister really has nothing to do with him. It's just that I have no one to prove it, so I asked my sister to come out and testify."

Her beautiful fox eyes blinked, as if she were looking forward to it.

A sarcastic smile flashed across Ye Zhaoyan's eyes. This man was really shameless.

She pretended to be surprised and looked at her with an expression that was hesitant to speak.

"Sister Xue, if you say that, aren't you asking Zhaoyan to lie to everyone?"

Ye Zhao asked back with sarcasm.

Xue Zhiyan did not expect that she would be so uncooperative.

The smile on her face froze.

"Is it possible that my sister is unwilling to clarify for her sister?"

she asked somewhat eagerly.

Now Ye Zhaoyan has not really fallen into the quagmire.

For a moment, there was really nothing she could do to him.

Ye Zhaoyan did not respond, glanced at Xue Zhiyan indifferently, and continued walking forward.

Xue Zhiyan watched Ye Zhaoyan pass by her, and then walked towards the main hall without looking back.

His face suddenly turned extremely pale.
