Chapter 4

Promise

There was suddenly a voice in Ye Xiyuan’s mind when she was about to kick Ye Leng’an out.

She was not surprised at all. It was obvious that she knew about the existence of this so-called system. “Do you mean that I can’t kick her out?”

When Ye Xiyuan returned to this world, she realized that she was already bound to this system. It was also with the help of the system that she was reborn. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Under the auspices of the system, she had already made preparations for her return. She was now different from what she used to be in her previous life.

In her previous life, when she returned to her own family, she did not know anything at all. Compared to Ye Leng’an, she was extremely lowly. However, things were different now. Even though she just arrived here, she was still very gracious, like a young lady who had grown up in a wealthy family.

Moreover, she had the help of the system now. She would definitely be able to trample Ye Leng’an under her feet.

“It’s not that you can’t. The system just proposed a reasonable deal.” The mechanical voice in her mind continued to ring out, “It’ll be more helpful if Ye Leng’an stays than being kicked out.”

Ye Xiyuan didn’t show any emotions on her face, but her heart was already racing. She trusted the system very much. Without the system’s help, she would not have been able to return to the Ye family so early.

In her previous life, she was only recognized by the Ye family after she turned eighteen.

At that moment, she had already made up her mind.

Ye Xiyuan didn’t notice that while she was communicating with the system in her mind, Ye Leng’an glanced in her direction. There was a thoughtful look flashing across Ye Leng’an’s eyes.

“Sister, don’t leave.” Ye Xiyuan looked up. “I never wanted you to leave. I came back because I wanted to be with my own family. Besides, I never had any sisters since I was young. I’m very happy to have you as my sister. Moreover, I just returned to this house, I need your help. Also, you can’t bear to part with dad, mom, and brother, right? So, don’t leave. Stay with us, okay?”

When Ye Li, Lin Wanqin, and Ye Anyun heard this, they couldn’t help feeling gratified.

“Xiyuan, thank you for your kindness.” Ye Leng’an didn’t relent. “But I need to return to my own home eventually, right? Since you’re back now, your adoptive parents will certainly miss their biological daughter.”

In her previous life, she was deceived by these high-sounding words. When she chose to stay in the end, it was eternal damnation, not family love, that awaited her.

Ye Xiyuan’s expression froze for a moment. “Sister, you…”

She was very dissatisfied in her heart. She had already put down her pride, but she did not expect Ye Leng’an to be so ungrateful. Wasn’t it better to stay in this wealthy Ye family than to return to that poor one?

“Xiyuan, you don’t need to persuade me anymore.” Ye Leng’an raised her hand and then looked at the rest of the Ye family. “Dad and mom, I’m very grateful for your kindness in bringing me up all these years. However, I have to leave today. In the future, if you need my help, I can agree to one of your requests.”

Although Ye Li and Lin Wanqin played a part in her death, their kindness in raising her was indelible. She was a cultivator, and she was particular about the cycle of karma.

Therefore, she had to repay the kindness Ye Li and Lin Wanqin had shown her. Today, the only thing she left behind was a promise.
