“Your wings haven’t even hardened yet, and you’ve learned to collude with Yuan Xudong to ruin my plans?” Yuan Luochen glared at Ye Xiaoxi like a venomous snake, his body brimming with murderous intent.
“Second Uncle, 1 didn’t…” Ye Xiaoxi struggled to explain, “I just wanted to avenge my friend. I didn’t conspire with Uncle Xudong.”
“Do you think I’ll believe your nonsense?” Yuan Luochen sneered and tightened his grip. “Little brat, your grandfather likes you, so I won’t do anything to you for the time being. However, if you continue to be with Yuan Xudong and ruin my plans, it won’t be difficult for me to think of some ways to torture you. So, be careful. Don’t fall into my hands, understand?”
Yuan Luochen squeezed out the last word, and his grip tightened.
Ye Xiaoxi’s slender neck was almost broken by his grip.
She couldn’t breathe, and the air in her lungs was being squeezed dry bit by bit. Her vision began to darken.
At this moment.
A figure rushed out and fiercely pushed Yuan Luochen away!
That person waved his fist and punched his cheek heavily.
Bang!
Yuan Luochen winced and took a step back. He raised his eyes and stared at the person in front of him. He shouted angrily, “You’re just a servant. How dare you lay hands on me? Are you tired of living?”
He covered his face and lifted his leg to kick Li Yu.
Li Yu stood firmly in front of Ye Xiaoxi, protecting her with a strong sense of guardianship, not allowing her to be harmed.
Just as Yuan Luochen was about to attack Li Yu, Ye Xiaoxi suddenly spoke up. “Grandpa, why are you out here?”
Yuan Luochen stopped abruptly and looked behind him.
In the end, no one was there!
He instantly realized that he had been fooled and turned back angrily. “Ye Xiaoxi!”
Ye Xiaoxi endured the excruciating pain in her neck and said with a smile, “Second Uncle, so you’re also afraid of Grandpa. The Yuan family is not entirely under your control yet, right? You want to kill me so brazenly. Do you believe that I’ll tell Grandpa about everything you’ve done?”
“Go ahead as you wish! Let’s see what the Old Master can do to me!” Yuan Luochen said arrogantly.
Ye Xiaoxi held Li Yu’s hand and turned around to look for Old Master Yuan.
However, after taking two steps, Yuan Luochen’s warning came from behind.
“Ye Xiaoxi, if you really dare to go to Old Master, 1’11 report that you and Yuan Xudong conspired to vie for the position of the Yuan family’s heir. Also, don’t even think about living a good life in the future. I’ll let you taste the bitterness of not dying!” Yuan Luochen threatened word by word.
Ye Xiaoxi paused in her tracks and said, “I’ll say it one last time. I have no conspiracy with Uncle Xudong. If you insist on not believing me, then I can’t do anything about it.” She continued walking forward.
When she turned the corner, she bumped into Elizabeth-Qianqian, who was walking towards them.
She glanced at Ye Xiaoxi and remained silent.
The three of them brushed past each other.
And then.
Ye Xiaoxi heard Elizabeth and Yuan Luochen’s conversation and slowed down.
“Qianqian, why are your eyes red? Who bullied you? Tell me, I’ll stand up for you. I’ll definitely teach that person a lesson!” Yuan Luochen was as arrogant as ever.
After two seconds, Elizabeth choked up. “Yuan Luochen, Yuan Xudong refused to get engaged to me. Will you dare to beat him for me?”
“Of course! It’s his fortune that you value him! He actually dared to reject you. He really didn’t know what was good for him! Qianqian, I’m different from him. I like you. Let’s get engaged…”
Smack!
A slap was heard.
Elizabeth said angrily, “Who wants to get engaged to you? A toad lusting after a swan! Get lost!”
When Ye Xiaoxi heard that, she felt refreshed.
“Serves him right!” she thought.
He had always wanted to become the head of the Yuan family.
But no one bought into it!
“Was he beaten up by Elizabeth? That’s satisfying!” she thought.
For the first time, Ye Xiaoxi found Elizabeth adorable.
“Are you alright?”
A gentle voice of the gentle youth came from above.
Ye Xiaoxi looked up and met his concerned gaze. Her heart thumped wildly, and her cheeks turned red. “I’m fine…”
She had just said two words when she felt a severe discomfort in her throat.
Ye Xiaoxi coughed softly.
Li Yu blamed himself, “I’m your bodyguard, but I failed to protect you. I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay. I asked you to leave,” Ye Xiaoxi said as she recalled the scene just now, “Besides, neither of us expected him to be so ruthless.”
He dared to make a move at the Yuan family’s old mansion. This Yuan Luochen was really arrogant..
