Realizing She Misunderstood The Villain, The Heroine Begs For Forgiveness - Chapter 127.2
Chapter 127.5:
The scene took a different turn.
At this moment, no one dared to underestimate Ye Xuan anymore.
Everything he had done seemed ridiculous to them. However, what was even more ridiculous was that they were ultimately wrong, and Ye Xuan was right.
As for Ye Xuan’s character, no one dared to speak out of turn anymore.
Even if Ye Xuan had truly done something to offend their palace master in this life, to be honest, it had nothing to do with his past life.
If they tried to mock Ye Xuan using his past life’s actions, they might end up getting slapped in the face due to bad luck.
So why bother? It was better to just watch quietly.
After all, some people already felt embarrassed from being slapped in the face several times, and their heads were still buzzing with embarrassment.
So, at this moment, everyone in the palace watched the scene seriously.
(On the screen)
After some thought, Ye Xuan decided to return to the Hu Mansion.
Although he knew that his master wouldn’t let him off easily, now that his master had killed Hu Wanquan and possessed his body, it was actually a chance for him.
After all, although he had learned about Hu Wanquan’s secret, compared to that, Hu Wanquan’s reasons for wanting to kill him weren’t that significant.
Hu Wanquan had only targeted him because he fancied Yu Ling’er. But Yu Ling’er was his master Yu Tieshan’s daughter. After possessing Hu Wanquan’s body, his master wouldn’t be interested in Yu Ling’er. In this way, Yu Ling’er was safe. However, in this situation, Hu Qian’er was in danger.
Even though Hu Wanquan wasn’t a good person, Hu Qian’er didn’t know everything he had done. She shouldn’t be a bad person either. If not, Hu Wanquan wouldn’t have done such things behind her back. As a father, he obviously wanted to leave a good impression on his daughter. Since that was the case, he couldn’t just watch an innocent woman fall into trouble.
With this in mind, Ye Xuan resolutely headed toward the direction of the Hu Mansion.
(Outside the screen)
After hearing Ye Xuan’s current thoughts, the Jade Fox Palace disciples were somewhat puzzled.
According to Ye Xuan’s thoughts, what he had done could indeed be considered noble. But the problem was that what he did afterwards didn’t seem to match that. What was going on?
(On the screen)
“I can’t directly go save Hu Qian’er, otherwise, that crafty old man, my master, will definitely figure out that I know something,” Ye Xuan thought to himself as he arrived outside the Hu Mansion.
“I need to find a way to let Ling’er protect Hu Qian’er.”
With that in mind, he took a deep breath and headed toward the room where Yu Ling’er lived. He had to pretend not to know what was going on, or he would undoubtedly die. Therefore, the first thing he had to do upon returning to the Hu Mansion was to elope with Yu Ling’er!
Sure enough, just as Ye Xuan was about to reach the door of Yu Ling’er’s room, he felt a sense of danger approaching him from behind.
The next moment, he felt himself being restrained and forcibly taken to an empty courtyard.
Then, the person who had restrained him let him go. Obviously, he was completely fearless that Ye Xuan would escape from his grasp.
“Nephew Ye Xuan, where are you going? It’s not appropriate to break into a woman’s room in the middle of the night,” said a voice as Hu Wanquan’s face appeared in front of Ye Xuan. He looked at Ye Xuan and smiled. ”
Ah… you… Master!”
Ye Xuan looked at Hu Wanquan, pretending to be shocked. “Senior Uncle… you didn’t…”
“Hahaha!!!”
At the sound of this, Yu Tieshan, who possessed Hu Wanquan’s body, laughed at Ye Xuan. “Did you think I died at the hands of your master? Your master was always inferior to me and ended up dying at my hands.”
“Is… is that so? I thought… my master was coming to kill you…”
Hearing this, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but show a disappointed expression.
“Are you going to kill me now, Senior Uncle? Then, you can just come at me… I only ask that you don’t let Ling’er know the truth, otherwise, she will be in pain for the rest of her life.”
As Yu Tieshan listened to Ye Xuan’s words, he looked at Ye Xuan with surprise.
This brat seemed to care about Ling’er genuinely… He could easily kill him now, but that would inevitably cause some trouble.
It would be better to plan slowly. However, what Hu Wanquan had said before was truly despicable. He still had to pretend to be interested in his daughter now; otherwise, Ye Xuan would definitely suspect something. If he were to reveal his affairs when he wasn’t paying attention, it would inevitably cause more trouble. Although his martial arts skills were formidable and ordinary people couldn’t deal with him, if someone contacted legendary righteous cultivators, he would be finished. Since that was the case, although he couldn’t easily kill him, he couldn’t let him off easily either.
“Your master wants to kill you, and you’re still grieving for him?”
He smiled at Ye Xuan. “You’re truly sincere. I actually admire you, but unfortunately, this senior uncle has taken a liking to Ling’er, and Ling’er likes you… Your Senior Uncle can’t let you go. What do you think?”
“Ha… ha… Senior Uncle… actually, I always saw Ling’er as a little sister. In fact, I prefer someone like your daughter, a wealthy and gentle lady who knows etiquette. Although she’s not as beautiful as Ling’er, she dresses beautifully…”
(Outside the screen)
“Where am I not as beautiful as Ling’er!”
At this moment, Hu Qinzao felt extremely frustrated.
Looking at Yu Ling’er, she was sure she was now more beautiful than her. Ye Xuan was just spouting nonsense with his eyes wide open. But she didn’t say anything because everyone was watching the scene. There was a bit of sympathy in their eyes.
(On the screen)
At this moment, Ye Xuan felt extremely humiliated. He never expected that he would say such shameless words one day just to survive. To be honest, he would rather die at this moment. But he hadn’t reminded Yu Ling’er yet. Although he didn’t know what Yu Tieshan would do, he still had to remind Yu Ling’er first to be careful of Yu Tieshan. At the same time, he also had to try to protect Hu Qian’er if possible. If not, why would he return at this moment? Why would he willingly endure such humiliation?
He had always acted with composure and remained unchanged in the face of changes, but only at this moment did he feel so uncomfortable.
From childhood to adulthood, he had never experienced such a humiliating loss of freedom.
(Outside the screen)
Uncomfortable?
Hearing Ye Xuan’s inner thoughts, the Jade Fox Palace members felt sorry for him.
Indeed, Ye Xuan’s previous display of excellence had surprised them. Such a person, forced to say such words to protect others… just thinking about it made people feel uncomfortable.
Yu Ling’er also naturally felt uncomfortable. Because she thought that Ye Xuan must have stayed for her in his past life. Clearly, he could have escaped far away, but he didn’t. He did it for himself. He endured this humiliation for himself. However, his efforts would obviously be in vain.
“He’s not doing it for me!” Hu Qinzao said indifferently to herself. “He must be doing it for Yu Ling’er. Saving me is just incidental. Hmph, and besides, this is something from the past life. I don’t need to worry too much about it.”
Thinking like this, she couldn’t help but feel a sense of gratitude in her heart for the past Ye Xuan’s actions. She also felt a bit uncomfortable watching Ye Xuan’s current ordeal. Perhaps, Ye Xuan from the past life was truly a good person. He shouldn’t have suffered such humiliation.
