The White Demon

Chapter 124: Dismal Exit

Ye Qingwan stood on the first step, looking at the astonished expressions of the crowd leisurely. Unconsciously, she had already assumed the posture of a superior.

"Hey, what are you talking about, kid?"

"That's right, Pan'er, this is a matter concerning your reputation, you can't talk nonsense!"

After being surprised, Duke Tang and his wife hurried out to smooth things over.

Zheng Kai's face clearly showed a moment of struggle, and he obviously didn't expect Ye Qingpan to be pregnant.

He looked at Ye Qingwan's expression and agreed, "Yes, Sister Pan'er, is there any misunderstanding between us? You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want."

"Oh, misunderstanding?..."

Ye Qingpan was so angry that he laughed, "Brother Kai, then tell me what misunderstanding is that you can give birth to a child but you dare not admit it? Uh huh..."

Ye Qingpan wanted to say something, but her mouth was covered tightly by the Duke's wife. "You guys, if today's incident gets out, none of you will be able to leave the Duke's Mansion alive!"

The Duke's wife issued a gag order to all the servants. Fortunately, except for the three members of the Zheng family, the rest were from the Duke's Mansion.

The servants in the Duke's Mansion were all trembling with fear, and they all placed their hopes on the future head of the family, Ye Qingwan.

Unconsciously, he looked at Ye Qingwan standing beside him. It was really that the current master wanted to beat or kill them at any time, and they always felt like they were serving him in a state of uncertainty.

The Duke's wife was still showing off her power when she suddenly felt a pain in her hand.

"Ah!" she screamed and let go of her hand.

Ye Qingpan bit the Duke's wife's hand, but suddenly burst into laughter, as if he was crazy.

"Hahaha, bah! Zheng Kai, I was blind to believe your lies! It turns out that you kept dragging your feet and not wanting to marry me because you just wanted to use me from the beginning!"

"Pa!" The Duke's wife, with wounds on her hands, slapped Ye Qingpan hard, "Pan'er! Are you sober? If you want to go crazy, don't take us with you!"

"Do you know that if a woman gets pregnant before marriage, her reputation will be in jeopardy. In our Tea Country, she will be thrown into a pig cage! The family's reputation will also be damaged. Do you still want your brother to get married normally?!"

After beating her daughter, the Duke's wife burst into tears out of heartache!

Ye Qingpan seemed to be getting more and more desperate. "Okay, okay, I'm sorry to damage your reputation and embarrass you!"

"Zheng Kai, please say something. Why, now even you don't want to say a word to me?"

Zheng Kai's face turned red, then pale, and after several changes, he finally turned around slowly, "Sister Pan'er, I know you love me deeply. But after all... I am the eldest son of the Zheng family. Our statuses are very different, so I can't marry you. But if Sister Wan agrees, it's not impossible for me to take you as a concubine..."

Ye Qingwan was originally standing aside eating melon and enjoying herself. Suddenly, Zheng Kai pointed the finger at her. She was speechless.

"Hey, just talk about your own things, don't try to get involved with me. Zheng Jia Dalang, our engagement has been cancelled long ago. Whether you marry Ye Qingpan or not has nothing to do with me."

This guy is not only second-hand, but also has ulterior motives. He is not as good-looking as Dabai and has a bad character. Is she crazy to marry him?!

She had no idea how the previous engagement was inexplicably arranged.

But from now on, she must draw a clear line between herself and such a scumbag.

But Zheng Kai seemed not to accept this result. He quickly took another step forward and said, "Wanwan, please listen to my explanation. You and I are both legitimate sons and daughters of our families. We are a well-matched couple..."

Seeing Zheng Kai coming straight towards her, Ye Qingwan quickly flicked her sleeves and set up a spiritual barrier to isolate Zheng Kai.

The reddish barrier looked like a layer of gauze, and it also seemed to be on fire.

As soon as Zheng Kai touched it, he was burned and took a half step back...

Seeing how Zheng Kai was very attentive to Ye Qingwan but ignored her, Ye Qingpan finally became completely desperate.

"Ahahaha, Zheng Kai, why do you think I must be the legitimate daughter? Because you like the identity of the legitimate daughter!

So what if I was put into a pig cage? I, Ye Qingpan, have committed more than just this sin... I also have that spiritual root..."

Ye Qingpan wanted to use the secrets between her and Zheng Kai to gain attention, but before she could finish her words, Zheng Kai came to her side and knocked her unconscious...

Tang Xian, who had always been nonchalant and indifferent, suddenly straightened his face at this moment.

He knocked Zheng Kai's hands away, "Let go! Don't touch my sister!"

There was coldness in his eyes.

The servants also came over to help hold Ye Qingpan up.

At this moment, Ye Qingpan was dragged out of the gate like a dead object, and he seemed to have no resistance at all...

Zheng Kai turned around and his expression became kind again. He wanted to explain to Ye Qingwan again, but at this time he saw someone walking in from outside the yard.

The man was dressed in light yellow brocade clothes, had a dignified appearance and a handsome face. He was holding a folding fan and walking slowly, but his expression was normal and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

Wherever he passed, people knelt on the ground and shouted in unison...

Behind her were two rows of palace maids carrying makeup boxes of various sizes.

Everyone in the courtyard came to their senses and immediately knelt down, including Ye Qingwan who was behind the spiritual power barrier.

"Meet Prince Rui!"

"It seems that I have come at the wrong time!" Prince Rui felt the spring breeze on his face, gently waved his folding fan a few times, and came to the main seat in the courtyard.

There was a moment of silence in the place, and naturally no one dared to respond to his self-deprecating remarks.

He closed his folding fan and immediately straightened his expression.

"Today, I am here to present a gift to Miss Ye, following the order of my father. There is no need for you to be so reserved. Everyone, get up."

Everyone stood up slowly, and Ye Qingwan also removed the spiritual barrier.

Only then did Prince Rui see Ye Qingwan's face clearly.

But she was not only dressed simply, but also had dark circles under her eyes, so she asked calmly:

"I haven't seen you for a few days. What happened to Miss Ye's eyes?"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Kai and Zheng Xiu immediately shrank back...
