Chapter 422 is no lie.
Upon hearing Ye Qing'an's words, Ye Zirui and the steward couldn't help but look at her, their eyes filled with surprise.
"Heading to the Monster Forest?"
The butler and Ye Zirui exchanged glances, and after a long while, Ye Zirui finally spoke: "Why would you have such a thought, eldest sister?"
Ye Qing'an smiled and said, "I suppose the steward has already told you that Father's disappearance this time was a ruse to show weakness so that the Emperor would not be able to find a pretext to weaken the power of our Ye family."
"But even though we know that Father's disappearance is a hoax, we still have to make this act real."
Ye Qing'an stood up and paced back and forth in the room a few times: "I've been thinking about how to make this matter seem more real. If Father really has an accident, how should we, the children of this household, react?"
"After much thought, I feel that I should go to the Monster Forest myself."
“There was no one in the manor before, so I should have been in charge of things there. But now that Zirui has returned, the situation is different, so I should go to the Monster Forest myself.”
Ye Zirui's gaze fell on Ye Qing'an. He had anticipated many possible reactions from Ye Qing'an.
Previously, Ye Qing'an held the power of stewardship, and he always felt that this power was in Ye Qing'an's hands. Even if he returned, Ye Qing'an would definitely not want to hand over this power.
Therefore, Ye Qing'an is very likely to try to suppress him secretly and take action against him.
He had already figured out how to play the game with Ye Qing'an.
But she never expected Ye Qing'an to do this...
Suggesting to go to the Warcraft Forest?
To hand over the entire Ye Manor to him directly?
Ye Zirui looked Ye Qing'an up and down several times. "Her?"
Is Ye Qing'an playing hard to get...?
"The Demon Beast Forest is dangerous, and the Emperor and our manor have already sent many people. Even if eldest sister doesn't go, the Emperor shouldn't suspect anything."
“If I don’t go, the Emperor will certainly not doubt me, but if I go, the Emperor should be able to believe me more.”
Ye Zirui stared at Ye Qing'an for a long time, then suddenly laughed: "According to what you said, eldest sister, shouldn't I go? If I go, the Emperor will probably believe me more."
“You can’t go.” Ye Qing’an shook her head, her expression very serious. “Fei Ran is currently poisoned and has not yet been cured. We don’t know how he is doing. You are a man, and the only male in our household who is capable of supporting the family. No matter what, you should stay in the household. Only if you are here and well can the Ye family be well.”
"I'm the one who has to put on this show. But don't worry, even though I'm going to the Monster Forest, I know my own limitations. I won't venture deep into the Monster Forest myself; I'll just keep watch from the outside to make sure I'm the first to know if there's any news."
“This way, the Emperor will trust me more, but he won’t doubt me. After all, everyone knows I’m a good-for-nothing. I’ve decided to set off first thing tomorrow morning.” Ye Qing’an pursed her lips tightly. “I’ll have to trouble you, Zi Rui, to take care of everything in the manor.”
……
"What is it you're doing, Miss?" Granny Wei frowned, her eyes filled with worry. "The Demon Beast Forest is so dangerous, what are you going there for, Miss?"
"Dangerous?" Ye Qing'an curled the corners of her lips: "I'm not going into the Monster Forest, so what danger could there be?"
"I think it would be more dangerous for me to stay in the manor now than to be in the Monster Forest."
Granny Wei looked bewildered: "Why do you say that, Miss?"
Ye Qing'an laughed: "Ye Zirui is back."
"Although Liu Xueying's current state has little to do with me, her and Ye Weilan's previous situations were more or less related to me. Now that Father has handed over the family head's seal to me, along with so many shops and power, will Ye Zirui be happy about that?"
"He is, after all, the eldest son of the Ye family. He grew up under his father's tutelage. Although he usually appears gentle and refined, he is certainly not lacking in scheming and plotting."
"He will never allow me to live well and wait for my father to come back."
Upon hearing Ye Qing'an's words, Granny Wei's eyelids twitched violently: "Then... what should we do?"
That's why I'm leaving.
Ye Qing'an chuckled, "Go outside the Monster Forest and wait for Father's news. Father will be alright. When Father is rescued, I will be the first person he sees. He will be very moved and trust me even more. If I go back to the manor with Father, even if Ye Zirui is unhappy, he won't dare to do anything to me."
Granny Wei frowned and thought about it, but she also felt that what Ye Qing'an said seemed to make some sense.
Granny Wei sighed, "Oh dear, what a mess this is."
"Don't worry, Granny. It won't be long before Father and I return, and things will be completely different."
"Alright, I'm going to take a short rest. You guys go and see if there's anything I need to bring, and help me pack."
"Yes."
After Wei Mama and Zixiao left, Jiuxiao walked out from the side: "Your skill in deceiving people is truly amazing."
"What do you mean by being afraid of Ye Zirui, what do you mean by waiting for Ye Qinghao..."
Jiuxiao had a complicated expression on his face: "But why did you suddenly decide to go to the Monster Forest?"
Ye Qing'an lay down on the soft couch, a slight smile playing on her lips: "I really didn't expect Ye Zirui to return to the manor."
"Now that Ye Zirui has returned to the manor, everything should be re-planned."
"As I said before, my aim in scheming against the Ye family was to avenge the original owner of this body and her mother, but the Ye family is not what I truly want."
“Since Ye Zirui cares so much about the Ye family, then I will give it to him. The Ye family is no longer a coveted property; it is in a precarious state. If he wants to keep it, then let him keep it.”
"Now that I am the Supreme Being..."
Ye Qing'an curled the corners of his lips, a flame seemingly igniting in his eyes: "If the world cannot know that I am the Supreme Being, then the existence of this Supreme Being is meaningless."
“I was missing an opportunity, but now I’ve figured out what to use as that opportunity.”
“What I told Granny Wei before, that when I come back, the situation will be completely different, is no exaggeration.”
"When I come back, Ye Zirui, Liu Xueying... ha..."
"I don't need to pay them any attention."
