Chapter 99 - Merciless

As he had expected, Xu Huan Zhen should be arriving soon.

As expected, before he could finish his train of thought, he heard Xu Huan Zhen say, "Since today is the first snow and everyone is so interested, why not heat up another pot of Little Wine?"

Wei Ruo Yi and Wei Yan looked over at the same time. Wei Yan had only taken a glance before her expression abruptly changed.

Xu Huan Zhen was not the only one who came, following behind him was a handsome young master dressed in gorgeous clothes.

Wei Ruo Yi had also seen this person before. His name was Chen Jian.

"Greetings County Owner." Chen Jian cupped his fists and bowed to Wei Ruo Yi, then smiled and looked at Wei Yan, "It has been a long time since I last saw Eldest Brother Wei. How are you doing? "

Wei Yan's body had obviously stiffened for a moment, the expression on his face became extremely unnatural. His fair white hands were originally under her sleeves, but now, she nervously pressed on the armrests of the chair.

He answered with a low voice and a serious expression.

Weird, Wei Ruo Yi secretly took Eldest Brother's reaction into his eyes. In truth, Eldest Brother was a very gentle person, probably because he had followed Aunt Mei on his temper, if not, he would not have suffered so much and not said a word.

Someone who could make Eldest Brother show such an expression must have had some sort of enmity with him.

It's just that Eldest Brother hasn't been out for a few years, how did this person know Eldest Brother? And why did it make Eldest Brother so uneasy, even a little bit of resentment was hidden in the depths of his eyes.

"You two know each other?" Wei Ruo Yi asked.

"It's more than just knowing each other." Chen Jian laughed, "Speaking of which, perhaps County Owner has already forgotten about me, but my family and Marquis's Mansion's are fated to be together, and almost became relatives."

Wei Yan's face became even uglier, and she started coughing uncontrollably.

"I really don't remember." Wei Ruo Yi said honestly, "You said that you almost became relatives with our Wei Residence, what kind of relatives are you?"

Chen Jian looked at Wei Yan, and then laughed: "My sister was once engaged to Eldest Brother Wei, did County Owner forget?"

F * ck me! Wei Ruo Yi was immediately embarrassed.

How could she have known that the Eldest Brother would have such an incident? She had been together with the Eldest Brother for so long, but the Eldest Brother did not mention a single word about this matter. Furthermore, the Eldest Brother had such an ugly expression on his face, so there was no need to speak anymore.

Now, Wei Ruo Yi suddenly understood why the Eldest Brother did not like him getting close to Wei Rong's friends.

Probably because of this Chen Jian.

"You're talking about the past." Wei Ruo Yi laughed lightly in disdain, then rolled his eyes: "Why do I have to put in so much effort to remember this so-called 'cheap' relative who doesn't know anything? Don't I have anything else to do? " She was an arrogant County Owner with a despotic reputation, it didn't matter if she was a little bit more arrogant now. After she finished speaking, she looked towards his own Eldest Brother, and said to Wei Yan, "For a talent like mine, and also a Eldest Young Master of ours, what kind of woman do you want? What kind of person is your sister? You also said that your sister is engaged to my Eldest Brother, what qualifications do you have for me to remember a woman who has been dissolved? What a joke! Stop messing around with relatives, I can't afford to lose face like that! "

Actually at times, Wei Ruo Yi really felt that this despotic name was quite useful.

In any case, in the eyes of others, she was just a piece of ice in a deep well. Come, come, bicker with her. Come and hurt each other. Let's see who can hurt who!

Speaking of playing rogue and rogue, Wei Ruo Yi felt that he still had some Inherent Skill.

Wei Ruo Yi's rebellious attitude and contemptuous eyes truly provoked her deeply.

Even Xiao Jin raised his eyebrows slightly, it was a little similar to the Wei Ruo Yi he was familiar with. It was just that previously, when Wei Ruo Yi was acting so arrogantly, he hated her so much that he wanted to send her flying with a kick. However, when she revealed that expression just now, he didn't feel that she was annoying anymore.

Xiao Jin suddenly felt that it was very scary ? Could it be that seeing Wei Ruo Yi go crazy and see too much, something was also not right with her ?

Chen Jian's face alternated between white and red. He had always used this matter to provoke Wei Yan, and every time he accompanied Wei Rong to the Marquis's Mansion, he would go there to talk about this matter. Every time he saw Wei Yan coughing incessantly because of this matter, the hatred in the depths of his heart would be greatly relieved. She did not expect that when she brought up this matter again today, she would be repelled by Wei Ruo Yi with just a single sentence.

How did he become a random relative ?

It was clearly her elder sister who despised that sickly Wei Yan. It was already disgrace for her to be a Prefecture Overseer and be befitting of a Hou Mansion's bastard. After finding out that Wei Yan was so sick that she could not even leave his home, how could her elder sister be willing to accept it?

Wei Yan stared blankly for a moment before slowly raising her eyes. The pressure on the armrest of the chair that was originally pressed down on him had slowly relaxed. He pondered for a moment, and actually started to smile lightly.

He wasn't willing to see himself become like this, wasn't willing to be despised by others, and when all his unwillingness gathered together, it once again became the deepest feeling of inferiority. He gradually sealed himself away, and after knowing that even those who he had engaged to marry would rather die than marry him, he felt even more inferiority than to the extreme ?

He had released the girl, and since he took the initiative to cancel the engagement, the girl's family also agreed. However, Chen Jian always used this kind of thing to provoke him whenever he saw him. It was just because he occasionally went out and coincidentally met Chen Jian once or twice, and she was just about to exit the gambling den.

Actually, it was because of Big Sister Chen Jian that he told the Chen family about Chen Jian gambling. His original intention was good, he hoped that Chen Jian could remove this habit of his, but who would have known that Chen Jian would hate him for it.

Wei Ruo Yi's words were as if they were filled with wisdom, causing him to instantly become clear.

Why should he be so insolent? Since that young mistress of the Chen family had treated him like this, he didn't need to be so depressed and anxious about this matter. Those who knew that he loved him, no matter how he changed, would never leave him, just like his mother or Wei Ruo Yi. As for those who did not know him and did not love him, even though he was in good health, those people did not value him, but rather his status or other external conditions.

He thought about how he had actually suffered a divine injury for such a long time, and even Wei Yan started to feel that it wasn't worth it.

Thus, he smiled. After smiling, he instantly felt relaxed.

He gratefully looked at Wei Ruo Yi. Ever since she had returned home, she had been like a beam of light shining into his dark gray world. A lamp, warm and bright.

He had finally thought it through and untied the last knot in his heart. He was like a man who had carried a heavy burden for a long time, and suddenly felt that the world around him had become much brighter, as if he could walk freely.

Wei Rong tried to smooth things over, "This is all just a matter of the past, it's fine if you don't want to talk about it."

"Don't mention it." Wei Ruo Yi said. She felt that since some people were so shameless as to stick their heads out for her to hit, she would not hold back. Her Eldest Brother, such a good-natured person, had been angered by this Chen Jian to such an extent by him. If she did not mention that Chen Jian's face was swollen, she would really let down her title of Little Heavenly Empress.

Wei Ruo Yi rolled his eyes again, and directly threw it at Chen Jian, "I can't rub any sand in my eyes, what kind of useless person are you guys bringing up the matter of almost becoming relatives with our family? If I really sit here, if news of this spread, people would really think that our Wei family is related to that ignorant family!" Wei Ruo Yi said, "I would never sit with such people. We just said that we can't lose face for that person. " With that, she stood up and pulled on Wei Yan's sleeves, "Eldest Brother, let's go, isn't it just a pan? Let's go back to the State Protecting Temple and eat. Let's invite Fang Shen to eat with us and also thank him for trying so hard to help us two siblings these past few days. "

Wei Yan held back her laughter, and lightly nodded her head, "Okay."

What's the big deal!

Wei Yan also stood up.

Seeing that, Wei Rong looked towards Chen Jian. He was leaving and gave him a look.

Chen Jian's lungs were about to explode from anger.

After meeting Wei Ruo Yi, he had deeply experienced what it meant to be an Elementary Scholar to meet with a soldier.

This person was quite unreasonable. He had messed around until he reached a certain level.

No matter how much he endured, his voice still trembled slightly. "Since County Owner is so detested, then this one has nothing to say."

"If you have nothing to say, then don't say it. I just hate you, yet you still want me to continue to despise you. Do you think you're cheap or lowly?" Wei Ruo Yi continued. Oh. I forgot, look at my memory, you're called Chen Jian right? It really is cheap! "

Chen Jian almost vomited a mouthful of blood.

How ungrateful...

Chen Jian was so angry that he did not even want to say goodbye, and directly flicked his sleeves and left.

"Halt!" But Wei Ruo Yi was unwilling to let it go, and said coldly.

Chen Jian stopped in his tracks, turned around, and glared back.

"How dare you!" Seeing that he actually dared to stare at, Wei Ruo Yi's heart became even more excited, this man, was truly a man who could only submit after fighting! Wei Ruo Yi slammed the table, and the cups on the table started to tremble. She used a lot of strength, and this time she really almost smashed a whole table full of rosewood.

Chen Jian was just someone who studied, how could he have seen such a formation? He was truly intimidated by Wei Ruo Yi's aura and stared blankly at the furious Wei Ruo Yi.

"Who the hell are you? How dare you throw this County Owner's face?" Wei Ruo Yi said coldly, "You are merely a commoner, and this County Owner is a Chong'an County Lord personally sealed by the Emperor. I did not know that this Lishan Academy would teach people such rules. You, go and call your mountain chief over! Today, the Japanese County Owner will properly ask him what is respect and order! "
