Chapter 554
After Ye Chen left the roof of the building, he did not return directly to Huiren Traditional Chinese Medicine Hall.
Instead, he went directly to the top of Xishan Mountain.
There is a huge stone on the top of Xishan Mountain, which emits a warm white light like white marble under the moonlight.
Ye Chen sat cross-legged on it and carefully took out the blood letter from his arms.
Looking at the blood stains shining purple-red under the moonlight, Ye Chen seemed to have seen the tragic situation of that year.
The night wind gently blew Ye Chen's hair and clothes, and he just looked at the moon in the sky, lost in thought.
As time passes, the first ray of sunshine appears in the east.
Ye Chen stood up with a sigh, carefully put away the blood letter, and patted the dust and dew on his body.
Suddenly they heard the sound of the door opening, and Long Yunjiao and Qin Feixue, who were preparing breakfast in the Chinese Medicine Hall, turned their heads.
When the two saw it was Ye Chen, they ran over quickly with expressions of joy and worry on their faces.
Qin Feixue looked Ye Chen up and down, "Why didn't you come back all night? Are you okay?"
"Well..." Ye Chen nodded.
Long Yunjiao, who was beside him, put his hands on his chest and walked forward timidly.
She opened her mouth, but no words came out.
Because she could clearly feel that something was wrong with Ye Chen's expression, and he didn't even look at her since he entered the door.
Ye Chen raised his head slightly and looked at Long Yunjiao, the expression between his eyebrows became even weirder.
Thinking that the marriage contract between the two turned out to be a plan to destroy the entire family...
Ye Chen felt anxious and cramped in his heart, which showed on his face with a little irritability and sadness.
But he didn't resent Long Yunjiao, after all, she was just a little girl at the time.
The reason why Ye Chen's expression was so complicated was because he was filled with self-blame.
He always felt that he had participated in the destruction of his family.
He even felt in his heart that if he had not been born, maybe the other party would not have found the means and opportunity to destroy the Ye family.
Long Yunjiao was so sensitive that she could naturally see the look between Ye Chen's brows.
But she still smiled and said, "I'm back...you...what happened? It seems like something is wrong with you."
"Tell us about it, it will make you feel better, don't hold it in your heart."
Long Yunjiao wanted to ask why Ye Chen had such an expression!
But Ye Chen just sighed softly, walked over and hugged Qin Feixue with his left hand, and Long Yunjiao with his right hand.
Looking at the rich breakfast on the table, Ye Chen swallowed. Although he had no appetite, he still forced a smile and said, "It's so rich. Let's eat first!"
Seeing that Ye Chen changed the topic and didn't want to say it out loud, Long Yunjiao smiled.
The three people sat at the dining table, and the atmosphere became a little strange.
Everyone had rice and chopsticks in their hands, but they just sat there. Ye Chen stared at the food on the table, while the two women stared at his face, and no one moved their chopsticks.
After all, Long Yunjiao's character couldn't stand such an atmosphere. She looked at Ye Chen and said, "I don't know what you have been through, and I don't know what kind of news you have heard."
"But I can see...there's something wrong with the way you look at me!"
Qin Feixue next to her looked at the two people with worry, but she also knew that she couldn't interrupt now.
Ye Chen put down his bowl and chopsticks and turned his head to look at Long Yunjiao.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and Long Yunjiao turned her head away, a tear falling from her eyes.
After sobbing, she quickly wiped away her tears pretending to be nonchalant.
He turned around and looked at Ye Chen seriously.
"If it's because of me... that makes you embarrassed or something else..."
"Anyway, you don't have to tell me, but Ye Chen...if I become an obstacle to you, I beg you to tell me immediately!"
"I promise I won't pester you or make things difficult for you. I will leave immediately... If this doesn't work..."
Long Yunjiao paused and bit her lip hard, "I can die for you! As long as you can be well, I am willing to do so!"
Ye Chen looked at this woman very moved, and finally sighed heavily.
"I'm not resenting you, I'm blaming myself!"
The two women looked at Ye Chen who lowered his head and felt heartbroken for a moment.
Long Yunjiao leaned over and grabbed Ye Chen's hand, placing it on her chest, "Can you tell us?"
Ye Chen raised his head and looked at her, then at Qin Feixue, who also nodded.
After pursing his lips, Ye Chen repeated what the Liang family's head said on the rooftop last night.
As Ye Chen spoke bit by bit, the expression on Long Yunjiao's face became more and more desperate.
In the end, his lips were pale and his face was filled with a sad, forced smile.
"So... our engagement was just a scam!"
Ye Chen hurriedly hugged her and comforted her gently, "It's not your fault. I didn't dare to tell you, just because I was afraid you would be so sad!"
Long Yunjiao closed her eyes, but tears still filled her eyes.
She shook her head gently, thinking that she was about to find happiness.
But now I realize that the happiness I thought I had was just a pawn in my grandfather's hands.
And this self-righteous happiness turned out to be the trigger that destroyed the family of the one he loved...
Long Yunjiao felt a twinge of pain in her heart, and strong self-blame and sadness surrounded her whole body like a tide.
At this moment, she could not help but regard herself as a sinner! An unpardonable sinner!
Disappointment and pain slowly climbed up Long Yunjiao's face.
Ye Chen understood this feeling very well, because he also felt that he was a sinner in his heart.
The two sat together in silence, Qin Feixue also leaned over and gently rubbed Ye Chen's palm.
At this moment, Long Yunjiao's cell phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and saw that it was the head of the Long family.
She looked at the jumping icon on her phone and smiled bitterly, "Hello?"
"Ah, Jiaojiao, how are you with Ye Chen? Grandpa, I've been thinking about it recently and it's better for you to get married as soon as possible."
"I can also hold my grandson as soon as possible!"
Unexpectedly, until now, his grandfather is still thinking of using him...
My life is simply a tragedy! Were you destined to be a chess piece from the moment you were born?
Why? Why should you add this gap between yourself and the man you love!
"Grandpa, am I important to you?"
"Of course it's important!"
"It's an important prop! It must have been used to destroy the Ye family back then and now it's used to destroy Ye Chen."
"What are you talking about?" A trace of panic flashed across the face of the head of the Long family, but he tried his best to deny it.
Long Yunjiao smiled bitterly, "Let me tell you, Master Long! I, Long Yunjiao, will never be your prop again. I will not marry Ye Chen, nor will I die!"
"Stop trying to take advantage of me, just give up!" Long Yunjiao said and closed her eyes.
