CHAPTER 152: CHAPTER 152: THE YE FAMILY SENDS HER NEWS OF A DEATH

Ye Ningwan removed her veil, revealing her true face.

Xie Mingyu’s eyes showed astonishment, and he smiled, "My Wanwan is so beautiful, where is she ugly?"

"Not your Wanwan, I’ve said it, the engagement is void, I could never like you," Ye Ningwan said speechlessly.

Xie Mingyu’s face darkened, "Why? Because you like Zhan Hanjue? But don’t forget, he wants to kill you."

"It wasn’t him, I believe him," Ye Ningwan replied.

Xie Mingyu said, "You might not know yet, but the Zhan Family has issued an assassination order against you. If not him, then who could it be? Wanwan, you are too naive. Although I don’t know Zhan Hanjue well, I’ve heard about him. He is aloof, and if he believes you are using him, he won’t let you go easily. Only by staying with the Xie Family, we can protect you."

"Do you think I would want to be with you for protection? Do you like such an engagement?" Ye Ningwan retorted.

Xie Mingyu’s face stiffened but he quickly said, "I believe if you spend more time with me, you will like me. You refuse now because you don’t know me well enough yet. I’ll let you see my good side."

"You like me because I saved you, but how much do you know about me? Do you know who I am or what you like about me?" Ye Ningwan questioned again.

Xie Mingyu frowned harshly for a moment before saying, "I know you don’t trust me, nor do you trust yourself. It’s okay, there’s plenty of time ahead, I’ll make sure we understand each other. You’ll realize I’m more suitable for you than Zhan Hanjue."

Ye Ningwan shook her head.

She didn’t know if he might be more suitable than Zhan Hanjue.

However, right now, she just wanted to explain things clearly to Zhan Hanjue.

Regardless of whether he believes it or not, she has to explain to him that she hasn’t been using him all this time.

Perhaps, at first, she did use him to find out the cause of her parents’ death and to seek revenge.

But with the issue of the precious medicinal herbs, she didn’t use him at all.

"Sis, do we really have to stay here?"

Ye Ningwan looked at Ye Shao.

Ye Shao was reading a book, even though his arm was injured, it didn’t affect his studies.

Seeing Ye Ningwan come over, Ye Shao put down the book and frowned, asking.

Ye Ningwan nodded.

"We don’t have anywhere else to go for now. Going out would be dangerous, it’s safer to stay here for the time being."

"But that Xie Mingyu... I heard from people here that he likes you," Ye Shao said unhappily.

Ye Ningwan laughed, "What, do you dislike him?"

"He’s prettier than a girl, just a pretty boy, I think he’s not worthy of you," Ye Shao muttered softly.

Ye Ningwan patted his shoulder, "Once I’ve sorted things out outside, we’ll leave. But for now, if you don’t like it here, just bear with it and study well here. The Xie Family allows you to continue taking the college entrance exams, cherish this opportunity."

"Mm, sis, don’t worry, I’ll study hard," Ye Shao nodded.

Ye Ningwan left Ye Shao’s room and returned to her own, then called Wu Taotao.

"Taotao, something happened here."

"Ningning, what’s wrong?" Wu Taotao asked in surprise.

Ye Ningwan told her everything that happened here.

Wu Taotao was shocked, widening her eyes for a while before saying, "How could this happen? Did Zhan Hanjue really act against you?"

"Those people were sent by the Ye Family, it should be true. But as for the Zhan Family...maybe not, perhaps Xie Mingyu deliberately made them say that, or it could be someone else. So I want to meet with Zhan Hanjue, to ask him face to face."

"But what if it really was him?" Wu Taotao asked in a low voice.

Ye Ningwan’s heart hurt, and she said bitterly, "If it really was him...I don’t know, I’ll see when the time comes. But right now, I need to find a suitable opportunity to return."

"You come back, I’ll help you meet him, I’ll look for Senior Brother, he’ll help," Wu Taotao said.

"Leng Ziqing?"

"Senior Brother Leng will definitely help. I know you suspect that the assassination order against you might involve Mrs. Leng. But even if it is true, I believe Senior Brother Leng doesn’t know about it."

"Alright, since you trust him, I trust him too," Ye Ningwan said.

But before she was ready, an opportunity came unexpectedly.

Ye Pengcheng passed away.

After months of torment, in the end, he still died.

The Ye Family actually sent the news to the Xie Family to inform her of the funeral, asking her to return to attend Ye Pengcheng’s funeral.

Xie Mingyu said, "You can’t go, the Ye Family is setting a trap for you. If you go, it would be a perfect opportunity for them to act against you."

This was a good opportunity to return to Jiangcheng, Ye Ningwan didn’t want to miss it.

"I have to go back, after all, he is my grandfather. Since the Ye Family came to inform me, they wouldn’t do anything to me."

"What if they do act against you?" Xie Mingyu asked.

Ye Ningwan said, "I’ll be careful, but not going would be disrespectful, and I wouldn’t be able to face my father in the future."

"I’ll go with you."

Xie Mingyu thought for a moment and suggested.

Ye Ningwan frowned, "Is your body suitable for long journeys? Xie Mingyu, don’t push yourself too hard. With the bumpy ride to Jiangcheng, you might lose half your life. I’ve worked hard to save you, don’t go looking for trouble."

Xie Mingyu frowned, his handsome eyebrows knitted together.

Ye Ningwan had to coax him, "Just stay at home and recover. Your body needs at least a month of rest before you can go out. If you’re really worried, let Tingyu go with me. She’s strong enough to fight ten people. With her by my side, you don’t need to worry."

"Take both Tingyu and Wangyue with you," Xie Mingyu said sternly.

Ye Ningwan nodded, "Alright, I’ll take both."

Only then did Xie Mingyu’s expression improve slightly, and he immediately called Tingyu and Wangyue over, instructing them to accompany Ye Ningwan.

It was Ye Ningwan’s first time meeting Wangyue.

Unexpectedly, she was a very cute little girl.

Tingyu was full of the domineering older sister vibe, looking as cold as ice, speaking stiffly.

Originally, Ye Ningwan thought traveling with her would be stifling.

Unexpectedly, Xie Mingyu was thoughtful enough to have her bring Wangyue.

Wangyue was much cuter, thoughtful, and considerate.

As soon as she saw her, she widened her eyes in surprise, "Miss Ye, you are so beautiful, even more so than celebrities."

"You’re very cute too," Ye Ningwan smiled.

Wangyue squinted her eyes with a smile when complimented.

"Miss Ye, are you going to be our Young Madam? That would be great, you’re so beautiful, and our young master is also very handsome. If you two are together, your children would be stunning."

Ye Ningwan felt awkward.

"Ahem, Wangyue, do you follow stars? Which celebrity do you like?"

"I like..."

"Wangyue."

Tingyu frowned, signaling Wangyue to be quiet.

Wangyue stuck out her tongue and had to shut her mouth.

The three of them, along with a few bodyguards, set off for Jiangcheng by car.

Along the way, they encountered two incidents, both resolved by Tingyu.

The second time, Ye Ningwan had Tingyu capture the person, as she wanted to interrogate them.

In the hotel room, Tingyu had the person tightly bound kneeling before Ye Ningwan for interrogation.

"Who sent you? Or rather, who paid to hire you?"
