Chapter 7

When Ye Hai heard the three words "Ye Er Ye," his heart churned with a surge of emotions. He hadn't heard these words in a very long time.

These three words were a source of shame for him, constantly reminding him that he was merely a temporary head of the family.

"Ran'er, do you really distrust Uncle so much? Besides, you have always enjoyed all the privileges of being the Ye family's legitimate daughter. Now—"

"Uncle, stop talking nonsense and take the oath quickly! My time is precious." Ye Hai hadn't finished speaking when Ye Feiran interrupted him.

Meeting Ye Feiran's gaze, Ye Hai knew he had no room for maneuver.

After a fierce internal struggle, he gritted his teeth and took the blood oath.

"I, Ye Hai, swear here that from today on, I will restore all the privileges of a legitimate daughter to Ye Feiran. If I break this oath, may heaven and earth punish me!"

As he spoke, a burst of light appeared, and the blood oath was sealed.

Ye Feiran raised her eyes to look at Ye Hai, a smile playing on her lips. "Uncle, you should add that no one is allowed to bully me."

Hearing this, Ye Hai glared at her in anger.

No one is allowed to bully her?

If he were to swear to this, wouldn't he have to protect her at all times?

This was simply a dream!

In the next moment, Ye Feiran's voice, which could drive anyone to despair, sounded again.

"However, it doesn't matter. I remember Grandfather said that Uncle is only a temporary head of the family, and his power is not as great as mine, the legitimate daughter."

"Spit!"

Ye Hai couldn't hold back any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Ye Feiran gave Ye Hai a cold glance and then turned to the surrounding people, smiling and saying, "Everyone, Ran'er thanks you for your help. Please go back!"

The people around her greeted Ye Feiran and then turned to leave.

Seeing this, Ye Hai couldn't help but spit out another mouthful of blood.

"Spit!"

Without even looking at Ye Hai, Ye Feiran strode into the Ye residence.

"Uncle, don't forget your blood oath."

Ye Hai watched Ye Feiran's back, his face contorting with rage.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and angrily returned to the residence to arrange matters.

As soon as Ye Feiran entered the Fenghua Pavilion, two maidservants followed.

They quickly walked to the front of Ye Feiran and bowed respectfully, "This servant greets Miss!"

Ye Feiran glanced at the two maidservants, a smile playing on her lips. "Oh! It seems Ye Hai is quite efficient!"

She then walked to the stone table and sat down, asking with a smile, "Speak! Who is your master?"

The two maidservants quickly exchanged glances and said in unison, "Miss, your servant's master is naturally you."

"Ha ha~"

Ye Feiran laughed lightly, her beautiful eyes looking at them as she said slowly, "I hope so! Otherwise, if I find out you have another master, the consequences will not be good! If you want to try, I don't mind at all."

The two maidservants lowered their heads, their hands clenched, clearly very uneasy. After all, they had heard that the head of the family had been forced to take a blood oath by the young miss.

Ye Feiran glanced at them, a cold smile playing on her lips. "Introduce yourselves!"

"I am Chunlan."

"I am Qiujun."

"I want to bathe and have lunch."

Ye Feiran's tone was lazy. After speaking, she walked to the beauty couch, lay down, and closed her beautiful eyes, seemingly lost in thought.

Chunlan and Qiujun responded respectfully and then went their separate ways to carry out their tasks.

Once they left, Ye Feiran began to tour the Fenghua Pavilion.

The Fenghua Pavilion was a courtyard specially built for Ye Feiran by Ye Lao Ye.

The pavilion was adorned with terraces and water pavilions, with flowing water and stunning scenery, a riot of flowers, and a beauty that was beyond description!

Suddenly, Ye Feiran's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

"Nerium oleander!"

Who planted nerium oleander here?

Nerium oleander blooms in spring, summer, and autumn. It is a flower that can be both admired and used for medicinal purposes, but it is also highly toxic. Its stems, leaves, and flowers are all poisonous.

Nerium oleander secretes a milky white liquid that can cause poisoning if one is exposed to it for a long time, leading to symptoms such as drowsiness and cognitive decline.

Thinking about this, a sarcastic smile played on Ye Feiran's lips. She wanted to see who had planted the nerium oleander here and would make sure they experienced a pain far worse than nerium oleander poisoning.

As soon as Ye Feiran stepped into her boudoir, Chunlan quickly walked to her front and said respectfully, "Miss, the hot water is ready. This servant will help you bathe."

Ye Feiran had intended to refuse, but then changed her mind and walked to the bathtub behind the screen without a word.

Chunlan immediately went over to help Ye Feiran undress. She kept her head down, not daring to look at Ye Feiran, appearing to be a sincere servant.

When only her undergarments remained, Ye Feiran looked at Chunlan with a smile and asked, "Do you fear seeing the scars on my body?"

Chunlan quickly glanced at the shocking scars on Ye Feiran's body, a flash of surprise in her eyes, and then lowered her head, unsure of how to respond.

Ye Feiran had been silently observing Chunlan's reaction. Seeing how composed Chunlan was, she was certain that Chunlan was not an ordinary maidservant.

"If you dare to betray me, your scars will be a hundred times worse than mine. Do you believe me?"

Ye Feiran's light words made Chunlan shudder. "Miss, this servant dares not."

Ye Feiran's lips curved into a faint smile. "You may leave."

"Yes!" Chunlan responded and then left.

Ye Feiran walked into the bathtub, and the pain spread throughout her body, but her face showed no sign of suffering.

After half an hour, Ye Feiran came out from behind the screen.

Hearing her footsteps, Chunlan knocked on the door. "Miss, the head of the family has sent Doctor Tong to treat your injuries. Doctor Tong is waiting outside."

Ye Feiran glanced at the scars on her hand, thought for a moment, and then said, "Let her in."

Soon, a woman in white, with her hair tied up, entered.

"Doctor Tong Yixin greets Miss!"

Ye Feiran nodded and gestured for Doctor Tong Yixin to take her pulse.

Doctor Tong Yixin's slender fingers felt Ye Feiran's pulse and then examined the scars on her hand. She said seriously, "Miss, you have been slightly malnourished recently. With proper care, you will be fine. As for the scars on your body, I have prepared a special ointment. If you apply it consistently for half a month, they will heal completely without leaving any marks."

"Oh~ What kind of ointment? Let me see." Ye Feiran said lightly.

She herself was a master physician, and malnutrition and the scars on her body were trivial matters for her.

The reason she let Doctor Tong Yixin examine her was to see if the Ye family would take any action.

Doctor Tong Yixin handed the ointment to Ye Feiran and then remained silent.

Ye Feiran opened the bottle, and the scent of the ointment wafted out.

Just by smelling it, Ye Feiran knew the ingredients of the ointment.

"Did you prepare it yourself?"
