Chapter 4

Yafei's figure darted to dodge, suddenly realizing, "Second Sister, so you lost your purity! But what does it have to do with me? Don't spout nonsense!"

"Waste of space, it was you who set me up, I will kill you!"

Ye Yuting's rationality had long lost control. She roared and continued to lunge at Yafei.

Those two big men were clearly the killers she hired; who else could have set her up besides Yafei?

Yafei nimbly dodged Ye Yuting, speaking calmly, "Second Sister, without evidence, spouting nonsense is just that. If you say I set you up, you need to provide proof!"

The onlookers, who had been driven away, heard the conversation between Yafei and Ye Yuting and were even more reluctant to leave.

Ye Hai and Lady Zhu exchanged a glance and had to personally step forward to pull Ye Yuting back to the Ye residence.

Yafei glanced at the couple, dodging Ye Yuting's claws while speaking seriously, "Uncle, Aunt, Second Sister is slandering me. I think it's best to clear this up in front of everyone. After all, my reputation has already been damaged by you, and it can't be ruined any further. Otherwise, how will I face Grandfather, and my parents in the afterlife?"

Lady Zhu angrily roared, "What to explain, Yafei? Don't you know that family disgrace should not be aired in public?"

She knew the plan of her eldest daughter all too well. The current Yafei looked different from before and absolutely could not be allowed to expose those matters.

Lady Zhu directly used her spiritual power to grab Ye Yuting, not even letting her speak.

Seeing this, Yafei had a look of sudden realization, "So Aunt knew it was a family disgrace! But why, when I made mistakes in the past, did you never call it a family disgrace, allowing Second Sister to scold me in public?"

Lady Zhu was immediately speechless, "I—"

"Aunt, Second Sister's slander is a big deal. It must be cleared up in public today. Otherwise, if it's handled behind closed doors, I fear I won't even see tomorrow's sun, no, not even today's sunset."

As Yafei finished speaking, the onlookers began to murmur.

"What does Miss Ye mean? Is Miss Ye going to be killed by Lady Ye if she explains in public?"

"It's possible. Why else would they be so eager to pull Miss Ye back to the residence? They must be afraid of their daughter's reputation getting even worse."

"Ah~ This acting head of the Ye family and Lady Ye are too vicious, trying to kill Miss Ye while the old master is away. Although Miss Ye can't cultivate, the old master cherishes her."

"..."

Ye Hai and Lady Zhu almost spat out a mouthful of blood at these words.

Especially Ye Hai, his face darkened. He hated being reminded that he was just the acting head of the family, which was a sore spot for him.

His elder brother, Ye Long, died over ten years ago, and the head of the family should have been him, not waiting for the waste of space, Yafei, to grow up and take over.

Therefore, he had always wanted to climb the tree of the Crown Prince. When the Crown Prince acts, his position as head of the family would be secure.

"Yafei, you are a descendant of the Ye family. How can you speak such nonsense and tarnish the Ye family?" Ye Hai looked at Yafei with disappointment.

"Ha ha," Yafei laughed lightly, looking at Ye Hai with sarcasm, "Uncle, who is tarnishing the Ye family, you know very well!"

"Yafei, airing family matters in public is tarnishing the Ye family," Lady Zhu immediately chimed in, trying to take Ye Yuting back to the residence.

Yafei naturally saw through her intentions and directly blocked her, speaking sarcastically, "Aunt, who is tarnishing the Ye family will be clear soon. If you keep going back to the residence, it proves you are guilty. And if airing family matters in public is tarnishing the Ye family, why wasn't it when Second Sister did it in public? Aunt, you are too biased!"

"I—"

Lady Zhu wanted to argue but was silenced by a cold look from Ye Hai.

Ye Hai looked at Yafei, narrowing his eyes. Why had Yafei become so capable overnight? Was it all an act before?

The next moment, he put on a kind uncle's face, "Yafei, there must be some misunderstanding. With so many people outside, let's go back to the residence to clear it up."

Yafei glanced at Ye Yuting, who was being held by Lady Zhu, and slowly lifted a few strands of hair that had fallen on her face, then gently blew them away.

No one knew that as Yafei lifted her hair, a colorless and odorless powder was scattered in the air, blowing towards Ye Yuting.

It was an enhanced version of a powder that causes madness, colorless and odorless!

Yafei calmly put down her hand and said, "Misunderstanding? Where are so many misunderstandings? Clearly, Second Sister is slandering me, and you, as her biological parents, are trying to cover for her."

Then, Yafei looked at the onlookers at the entrance of the residence, speaking calmly, "Everyone, you must stand up for Yafei!"

At this moment, Yafei was seen as a weak one by the onlookers, and their sympathy overflowed.

"Miss Ye, we will stand up for you!"

"Head of the Ye family, Lady Ye, Miss Ye is the only descendant of Young Master Ye. How can you treat her like this?"

"Exactly, if the head of the Ye family doesn't handle this matter today, he doesn't deserve to be the acting head."

Ye Hai's face turned green and white at the surrounding words.

Just then, the madness-inducing powder on Ye Yuting's body took effect.

She forcefully broke free from Lady Zhu's grip and lunged at Yafei like a madwoman, roaring, "Waste of space, I didn't slander you. It was you who set me up. I will kill you, ah—"

A smile flashed in Yafei's eyes as she nimbly dodged Ye Yuting's claws.

The next moment, she caught a glimpse of a white figure out of the corner of her eye, and a light flashed in her eyes, "Ye Yuting, it was clearly you who envied my betrothal to the Crown Prince, hired killers to whip me, and tried to ruin my purity. Unfortunately, I am strong and saw through your plan, narrowly escaping. Don't you dare deny it?"

"I will kill you and ruin your purity. Why should I deny it? Betrothal? Ha ha, you are just a waste of space. What qualifications do you have to be the Crown Princess? I am not only the first beauty of Nanyue but also a genius. Only I am worthy of the Crown Prince!"

Ye Yuting roared like a madwoman, her face twisted, no longer resembling a lady.

Ye Hai and Lady Zhu were too late to stop Ye Yuting.

As she finished speaking, the entire scene fell into a dead silence.

Yafei looked at the twisted face of Ye Yuting and sneered inwardly.

Ye Yuting's admission of hiring killers to set her up could not be overturned, and her reputation would only get worse.

Original owner, did you see that?

Lady Zhu was extremely anxious and quickly explained, "Everyone, Yuting must have been framed and is speaking nonsense. Don't take it seriously!"
