Chapter 268: Asking for forgiveness
They didn't see any monks or Taoist priests, but the Li family did indeed come to their door.
"General Li came in person, along with Miss Li. General Li rode a horse, and Miss Li rode in a carriage. They got off the carriage at the gate of our mansion. Miss Li was carrying a bundle of thorns on her back, saying that she came to apologize."
There are quite a few people watching the commotion at the entrance.
Ye Qing'an narrowed her eyes: "At the main gate?"
"Yes." Granny Wei frowned, her eyes full of confusion: "What's going on here?"
"What's going on?" Ye Qing'an quickly realized what was happening and just sneered, "What else could it be? Miss Li undressed in public and lost all her composure. Rumors have spread everywhere. Naturally, she wants to drag me down with her and tell everyone in Wangjing that I'm the one who harmed her."
Granny Wei's eyes widened: "Then what should we do?"
"What should we do?" Ye Qing'an curled the corners of her lips: "Then naturally we should not accept their apology and should deny it to the death."
"Just because she sings opera with me doesn't mean I can't sing opera anymore."
After Ye Qing'an finished speaking, he strode out of the courtyard and headed straight for the main gate.
It was nearing evening, and the sunset glowed fiery red in the distance. The main gate of the Night Mansion, which should have been deserted, was now bustling with noise.
Li Siya, carrying a bundle of thorns on her back, knelt on the ground, gritting her teeth, surrounded by pointing and whispering people.
Li Siya gritted her teeth, her heart filled with hatred. It was all Ye Qing'an's fault, it was all her fault!
She schemed against her, making her look bad in front of so many people. Now she has to continue to be pointed at and gossiped about…
Ye Qing'an! You just wait!
Once this matter is over and she has restored her reputation, she will definitely settle the score with her!
She and Ye Qing'an are locked in a life-or-death feud!
As Li Siya was thinking, the gates of the Ye residence suddenly opened.
Li Siya looked up and saw Ye Qing'an walking out from inside.
Night, may you rest in peace!
Li Siya's eyes seemed to be spitting fire, and just as she was feeling that she could no longer suppress her anger, she suddenly remembered her father's light cough.
Li Siya suddenly snapped out of her daze, remembering why she had come back in the first place...
Li Siya gritted her teeth, took a deep breath, and then looked up at Ye Qing'an: "Qing'an, Qing'an, please forgive me. I was wrong at the Gu residence. I spoke rudely. I was wrong. I shouldn't have called you a good-for-nothing, and I shouldn't have mocked your premarital pregnancy..."
"You've already taught me a lesson, making me look bad in public. You should have gotten your revenge and feel better now, so please forgive me."
The crowd outside immediately started discussing it.
The story of Li Siya at the Gu family had already been widely circulated in the city. So, it turns out that this matter is also related to Miss Ye?
"Huh?" Everyone turned to look at Ye Qing'an, only to find her looking completely bewildered: "What is Miss Li talking about?"
"Did you make sarcastic remarks about me at the Gu family's place before? How come I didn't know?" Ye Qing'an's expression was somewhat stunned: "Did you call me a good-for-nothing? Did you make sarcastic remarks about me being pregnant out of wedlock?"
"This shouldn't be considered rudeness, right?" Ye Qing'an's gaze swept over the onlookers, her face showing a hint of naivety. "I really can't cultivate, and I did have an accident right after I came of age, giving birth to my child."
"If you mentioned these two things before, then these two things are true, right? So it's not like you're insulting me, is it?"
As Ye Qing'an spoke, the look of bewilderment on her face deepened: "But when did I ever discipline you? And when did I ever embarrass you in public?"
Ye Qing'an tilted her head, looking as if to say, "What are you talking about? Why can't I understand you at all?"
"what……"
Ye Qing'an suddenly realized: "You're talking about that time you undressed and scratched incessantly in public... But what does that have to do with me? Everyone saw it. The person you were fighting with in mid-air was a dancer..."
Upon hearing Ye Qing'an's words, Li Siya's eyes suddenly flashed with anger: "You're lying!"
"I'm lying?" Ye Qing'an was even more bewildered. "But hundreds of people witnessed what happened back then. What does Miss Li mean?"
Ye Qing'an's expression changed instantly: "Miss Li, are you worried about your reputation being damaged and your bright future being affected, so you want to find someone to take the blame for you? So you came to me and put on this show in front of so many people, just to make everyone think that I was the one who did it before? And then throw all the blame on me, making yourself the victim and me the perpetrator, condemned by everyone?"
Ye Qing'an looked incredulous: "Just because my reputation isn't very good to begin with, just because I'm pregnant out of wedlock, do you think that since I don't have to get married in the future, I can take the blame for you?"
"Why did you do this?" Ye Qing'an's eyes were red, and her lips trembled slightly. "I considered you a friend, and I considered Miss Gu a friend, so I went to the small banquet today to congratulate Miss Gu. Who knew you would do this?"
"I am indeed a useless person, but is it something I can choose to be useless? If I could, I would also like to be born with amazing talent! I was indeed pregnant out of wedlock and gave birth to the child, but I am also a victim. If I could, I would not want to be harmed by bad people and have my whole life changed from then on."
“I sympathize with Miss Li for what happened today. However, I cannot allow Miss Li to pin the blame for this crime on me. After all, although I am nothing, I am still a young lady of the Ye family.”
“It doesn’t matter if my reputation is damaged, but this matter will inevitably implicate the Ye family, and I will not allow such a thing to happen.”
Ye Qing'an took a deep breath: "And the person who entangled with you in the air this afternoon and harmed you, anyone with eyes can see that her Xuanling technique is not weak. How could I, a piece of trash, be that dancer? Even if Miss Li is going to lie, she should at least make up a plausible one, right?"
Li Siya was completely taken aback to be turned on by Ye Qing'an like this. Her face changed, and she looked extremely ferocious: "Ye Qing'an!"
Ye Qing'an trembled violently, as if she had been frightened.
The General of the Cavalry, who had been standing to the side, frowned and finally spoke: "Miss Li."
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a group of people suddenly emerged from the main gate of the Ye residence, led by Ye Qinghao…
