Yeyuwei met Ye Feiran's cold gaze and was instantly startled. She swallowed hard before continuing, "Miss, Yashuang was just momentarily angry and spoke nonsense. Please don't take it seriously."

"Hehe, Yeyuwei, so this is how you win people's hearts? Since that's the case, I'll help you achieve your goal. Roll out twelve times right now!" Ye Feiran said with a cold laugh.

Yeyuwei blinked, her eyes misty, and her voice choked with emotion, "Miss, Yeyuwei will roll out now."

"Third Miss, no, we can roll out ourselves."

"That's right, we can roll out ourselves."

The crowd spoke up, their gazes toward Ye Feiran sharp like knives.

Yeyuwei looked up at them, a faint smile on her pale face, and said softly, "This is Miss's order. How can Yeyuwei not obey? You all should also obey Miss's order."

The crowd looked at Yeyuwei, their feelings even more complex.

Ye Feiran raised an eyebrow slightly, her beautiful eyes fixed on Yeyuwei, a mocking smile curling at the corners of her lips.

In comparison, Yeyuwei's cunning was much greater than Ye Yuting's.

With today's actions, she would surely gain the gratitude and loyalty of these twelve Ye family disciples.

Then, Yeyuwei took a step forward, preparing to roll.

Ye Yashuang quickly stepped in front of Yeyuwei, stopping her, and turned to the Third Elder, her tone urgent, "Third Elder, can you just stand by and watch Third Miss roll out?"

Yeyuwei lowered her eyes, her hands clenching slightly, a hint of tension in her heart. She was also a genius of the Ye family; surely the Third Elder would help her?

The Third Elder stroked his white beard, glanced at the calm Ye Feiran, and said slowly, "This is Miss's decision. I have no right to interfere."

A simple sentence clearly expressed his stance.

Ye Feiran glanced at the Third Elder, a faint smile curling at the corners of her lips. The Ye family still had someone with good judgment.

Ye Yashuang looked at the Third Elder, her face full of disbelief, "Third Elder, Third Miss has outstanding talent. As an elder of the Ye family, how can you protect a useless person who can't cultivate? Do you deserve the Ye family?"

Upon hearing this, the Third Elder frowned in displeasure, his aura instantly enveloping Ye Yashuang.

"Pfft"

Ye Yashuang was only at the Fifth Stage of Qi Cultivation and could not withstand the pressure of the Foundation Establishment stage. She immediately fell to the ground, spitting blood.

"Ye Yashuang, insulting the direct-line Miss deserves punishment. If you insult Miss again, I will expel you from the Ye family, never allowing you to step in again."

Ye Yashuang looked up at the Third Elder, her eyes full of fear. The next moment, she fainted.

The crowd watched this scene, all lowering their heads, not daring to breathe loudly.

Although the Third Elder was responsible for guarding the library, his status was higher than other elders because his strength was at the Ninth Stage of Foundation Establishment, the same as the Ye family's patriarch.

Yeyuwei glanced at Ye Yashuang, took a deep breath, and rolled out.

Once, twice, twelve times!

Yeyuwei lay on the ground, dirty all over, her beautiful eyes filled with growing hatred as she looked at Ye Feiran.

This humiliation, she would remember. She would make Ye Feiran pay back a hundredfold, a thousandfold.

The other Ye family disciples glared at Ye Feiran and quickly carried Yeyuwei and Ye Yashuang away.

Chunlan and Qiujun watched this scene, their feelings very complex.

Ye Feiran glanced at them, raised her eyes to the Third Elder, and raised an eyebrow, "Third Elder, your ability to change with the wind is quite impressive!"

The Third Elder was slightly taken aback, then laughed, "Thank you, Miss, for your praise. I hope Miss will not hold past actions against me."

"Will not hold past actions against you? That depends on your performance."

With that, Ye Feiran flicked her sleeves and walked into the library to continue reading.

The Third Elder watched Ye Feiran's back, shaking his head with a smile.

As long as the future of the Ye family was promising, how Ye Feiran treated him was irrelevant.

The news of Yeyuwei rolling out of the library quickly spread throughout the Ye family. Most people felt even more hatred toward Ye Feiran, feeling indignant on Yeyuwei's behalf, while only a small number of people remained neutral.

After all, Ye Feiran had publicly exposed Ye Yuting the day before, even making Ye Hai swear a blood oath, and today made Yeyuwei suffer humiliation. These actions clearly showed that Ye Feiran had changed.

Ye Hai and Zhu Shi had just finished dealing with Ye Yuting's matter when they heard about Yeyuwei's situation and hurried to the Rose Pavilion.

Zhu Shi, seeing Yeyuwei covered in dirt, looked heartbroken, "Yeyuwei, how are you?"

Yeyuwei, seeing her parents, burst into tears, "Wah, Father, Mother!"

Zhu Shi tightly hugged Yeyuwei, checking her condition, and reassured her, "Yeyuwei, don't cry. Quickly tell Father and Mother what happened?"

Yeyuwei wiped her tears and recounted the library incident, adding more details.

"Despicable! We gave the Third Elder so many herbs, and he actually protected that useless Ye Feiran." Zhu Shi said with a dark face.

Ye Hai's face was no better, his teeth grinding, "I will go and ask Ye Changcheng for an explanation right now."

"Father, no!" Yeyuwei quickly stopped him.

Ye Hai and Zhu Shi looked at Yeyuwei, puzzled.

"Yeyuwei, why? Ye Changcheng received our herbs, he should protect you."

Yeyuwei's face showed a bitter smile, "Father, the Third Elder has clearly taken Ye Feiran's side. His strength is at the Ninth Stage of Foundation Establishment. Can you defeat him?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Hai's face darkened even more.

Zhu Shi looked at Ye Hai, still angry, "Lord, I can't swallow this. We must teach Ye Feiran and Ye Changcheng a lesson. Our Yuting, wah wah..."

Ye Hai closed his eyes in pain, took a deep breath, and said, "My lady, rest assured, I will find a way to teach them a lesson."

Yeyuwei quickly glanced at her parents, then lowered her eyes, a sharp pain flashing in her heart.

Ye Yuting was already ruined, yet why was she still so important to her parents?

Was it just because Ye Yuting had the favor of the Crown Prince?

Thinking of this, Yeyuwei looked up at Zhu Shi and asked softly, "Mother, what do you plan to do about the Crown Prince?"

Zhu Shi and Ye Hai exchanged glances, their faces not good.

"Yeyuwei, don't worry about the Crown Prince. For now, don't provoke Ye Feiran. Mother and Father have important matters to discuss. Go take a bath first," Zhu Shi said with a smile.

Yeyuwei lowered her eyes, hiding her emotions, "I understand."

After Ye Hai and Zhu Shi left, Yeyuwei lifted her head, a deep pain in her eyes.

How was she inferior to Ye Yuting?
