?
Lu Yan could no longer fake her tears. She could only put on an aggrieved expression. âSister Qian, forgive me for chasing you out of the Gu family for my own selfish interests. Iâm sorry!â
Ye Qian did not speak.
And there was not a trace of apology in Lu Yanâs eyes.
Ye Qian said plainly, âShouldnât I thank you? Without you, I would not have become the person I am today.â
Lu Yan couldnât even maintain her expression.
She slowly stood up and bent down to rub her knees. âSister, are you doing this on purpose? How can you watch me just kneel before you?â
Ye Qian said, âYou were the one who willingly knelt. I didnât have to stop you, did I? Once you knelt, I did feel better.â
Lu Yan sat down opposite Ye Qian. âThen shouldnât sister also apologize to me?â
Ye Qian raised her eyebrows. âWhy should I apologize? I didnât do anything to offend you.â
Lu Yan gritted her teeth and said, âYou have ruined my reputation in public! Sister, have you forgotten it so quickly?â
Ye Qian smiled. âI just exposed the truth that no one knew for a while. How did I ruin Sisterâs reputation? If Sister didnât do such a thing, how could I even expose it?â
âYou...â Lu Yan was so angry that she couldnât speak.
Ye Qian suddenly came to a realization. âOh, my Sister isnât here to apologize to me. My Sister is here to denounce me, right? What? Is the Gu family also going to chase my Sister out of the house? Thatâs not possible, right? My Sister is the Gu familyâs biological daughter, unlike me who was an adopted daughter. No matter how well I served the Gu Family, it didnât matter in the Gu Familyâs eyes. But the biological daughter shouldnât be gauged the same way, right?â
Ye Qianâs every word pierced Lu Yanâs heart.
Lu Yanâs face was deathly pale.
Ye Qian smiled. âWhat can I do for my Sister? Can I help you with anything?â
Lu Yan took a deep breath. âOf course, you can help. Iâm just afraid that you wonât help me.â
Ye Qian nodded. âYouâre right. After all, it seems that I donât have this obligation.â
The veins on Lu Yanâs hand that was holding the corner of the table were already bulging. It was obvious how much anger she was suppressing in her heart. However, she still endured it. After all, she was the one who needed help now.
âSister and Gu Nian are friends. I would like to ask Sister to be a middleman so that I can get back together with Gu Nian.â Lu Yanâs tone was very calm. It was as if she was saying, âtodayâs weather is very nice.â
I couldnât help but think to myself, How thick-skinned is this Lu Yan?
Ye Qian didnât seem surprised at all. âIt looks like the Gu family is really ruthless!â
Lu Yan bit her lip and looked at Ye Qian.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ye Qian looked at Lu Yan. âIâm afraid I canât do anything. What kind of man would be able to get back together with his fiancée after personally witnessing her cheating on him? Maybe you can ask Master Gu Er and Master Wei Wu to help you? Maybe Gu Nian will give them face.â
Lu Yan blurted out with a sobbing tone, âThey are the ones who gave me this mission! They want me to complete my marriage with Gu Nianzhi no matter what method I use. Otherwise, Iâll be in serious trouble!
âAs long as I can marry Gu Nian, I donât care what conditions he has!â Lu Yan gritted her teeth.
âEven if he wants the entire Gu Family as the dowry?â Ye Qian asked casually.
Lu Yan was stunned for a moment and looked straight at Ye Qian.
Ye Qian smiled. âI was just joking, but I really donât have the position to convince Gu Nian. Since you have the time to pester me, why donât you just talk to Gu Nian directly? Who knows, if you kneel down to him, he might even soften his heart.â
Lu Yan looked at Ye Qian, who was pretending to be dumb, and said coldly, âSo, are you not going to help me?â
