The first patriarch said it very loudly. Not understanding why the first patriarch gave such an order, Ye Yuwei’s mind went blank for a moment.

Ye Yuwei looked at everyone panicking and realized that the first patriarch might in fact be the hardest to deal with.

Every entrance to the fortress would be blocked by the closed gate. The ones who were outside the fortress would not be able to enter, and the ones who were inside would not be able to leave. There would be no contact between the inside and the outside of the fortress, not even by a phone call or text message.

“What do you mean, Uncle?” Bai Ying asked, looking at the first patriarch.

“Ye Shu has been dead for some time, Bai Ying. There are a lot of things that I didn’t say or comment on, because I promised Master Bai to take care of you for as long as I live.”

Bai Ying lowered her gaze. She would be lying if she said that she wasn’t moved by the first patriarch’s words.

“Bai Ying, Master Bai led us to fight for the Bai family and its future. Can’t you understand why we try so hard to protect and uphold the Bai family?” The first patriarch asked with his bony hand hanging mid-air.

Ye Yuwei was standing between the first patriarch and Bai Ying. She feared that Bai Ying might cave in when she looked at the first patriarch playing the victim card and Bai Ying with her head down.

“So what?” Ye Yuwei said loudly, “The Bai family is far from innocent.”

A slapping sound filled the air—the second patriarch who was standing next to the first patriarch had slapped Ye Yuwei’s face.

Gu Juexi stopped what he was doing when he heard the sound and clenched his fists, his expression vicious.

Ye Yuwei crashed to the floor. She could feel her face swelling and taste blood in her mouth.

“What are you doing, Second Patriarch?”

Qian Yikun’s voice pierced the air just as Nalan Chunbo was about to get up from his chair.

Gu Juexi was on his way to the lobby but stopped walking when he heard the voice—Qian Yikun had arrived.

Ye Yuwei felt her ears tingle after the slap, but it didn’t stop her from recognizing the voice.

It was a deep and magnetic voice that used to make her feel at ease, but now…

Qian Yikun walked towards Ye Yuwei and squatted to hold her arm. Ye Yuwei bit her lip and felt her face throb painfully.

“Don’t touch me,” Ye Yuwei snarled when Qian Yikun gripped her arm. She stood up without Qian Yikun’s help and tried to fling his hand off.

Qian Yikun helped Ye Yuwei up and looked at everyone in the lobby. “Ye Yuwei is definitely Mistress’s daughter, I can guarantee that. I am late because I went to get this—the DNA test result of Mistress and Ye Yuwei,” Qian Yikun declared as he put the doc.u.ment down on the table, and then said to Ye Yuwei, “there is no need to make a scene for this.”

“Let go of me,” said Ye Yuwei angrily. “Stop pretending that you didn’t stay around me because of who I am, Qian Yikun.”

Qian Yikun shrugged without denying Ye Yuwei’s accusation. “People are with each other for a purpose, Yuwei. It’s the same even for Gu Juexi. Didn’t he use you back then?”

“That has nothing to do with you even if it is true,” said Ye Yuwei as she shook off Qian Yikun’s hand.

“Being stubborn is not a good thing sometimes, Yuwei.” Qian Yikun smiled.

“It’s still a better way than using women to get what you want.” Ye Yuwei scoffed, “Bai Yuyan didn’t dump you. You approached her in the first place with the purpose of using her.”
