Chapter 732 [Under the Brocade 28]
Yuan Jinxia and Yang Yue infiltrated the Chunxi class, and they were doing very well in it. They traced back to Yun Zhaiyue.
Before the clever Jin Xia could find out the truth, something even more terrifying happened. Yun Zhaiyue was murdered and died!
At this time, Jin Xia already had a bold guess in her heart: the person who killed Yun Zhaiyue was most likely the same person who killed Lord Zhou before!
Fortunately, the thoughtful Yang Yue had made preparations in advance. He called Youyou and Lu Yi to come for support. Just when the murderer was about to kill Yun Zhaiyue, Youyou, who was quick to react, acted like lightning and caught the murderer firmly. But when everyone saw the murderer's face clearly, they were all shocked - this person was Zhai Lanye!
Youyou stared at Zhai Lanye in front of her with disbelief, her eyes wide open, her heart filled with shock. Zhai Lanye was also extremely surprised after seeing Youyou, because she had always thought that Youyou was a man, and never thought that he was actually a woman.
At this time, Lu Yi came forward with a stern face and said coldly: "I didn't expect you to be the murderer?" Facing Lu Yi's questioning, Zhai Lanye bit her lips tightly and said nothing, but her flickering eyes revealed her inner fear and anxiety. Obviously, she was thinking about how to escape from the current predicament.
In a flash, Zhai Lanye took advantage of everyone's carelessness, broke free from Youyou's restraints, and turned to escape. At this critical moment, a sedan chair with extremely luxurious decorations slowly stopped by the side. The curtain of the sedan chair was gently lifted, and the elegant Yan Shifan walked out from it.
Yan Shifan's eyes were sharp, and he appeared beside Zhai Lanye in a flash. With just a few moves, he easily helped Lu Yi subdue Zhai Lanye again.
When his eyes swept across the crowd, he suddenly found Youyou standing there. He was slightly stunned and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Then, he frowned and asked in confusion: "Youyou, why are you here? I remember you told me that you were going to stay in a farm in the suburbs for a few days, why did you come to Yangzhou again?"
Youyou blinked her bright big eyes and said in a tender voice, "Brother, what are you doing here?" Her clear and pleasant voice was like the sound of a yellow oriole singing in a valley.
Yan Shifan frowned, stared at Youyou sharply, and asked in a deep voice: "I just happened to pass by here, but what are you doing here? You are actually staying with Lu Yi and the others!"
Youyou put her hands on her hips, raised her chin, and retorted unconvincedly: "What's the matter? Can't I come here? Besides, no one restricts my freedom, I can go wherever I want! No one can stop me!"
Yan Shifan turned to look at Lu Yi and asked in a serious tone: "Lu Jingli, I wonder how you and my sister met? Also, why is my sister here with you?"
Youyou quickly interrupted and said, "Brother, don't worry about me. I've already told father about it, and even father didn't say anything!"
However, Yan Shifan said firmly: "No! This place is full of mixed people, the situation is complicated, and it is very unsafe. You must return to the capital with me immediately!"
Youyou shook her head stubbornly and said loudly: "I don't want to go back! Wherever Lu Yi is, I will be there!"
Upon hearing this, Yan Shifan's face darkened and he raised his voice to ask, "What do you mean by that?"
Youyou did not flinch, but straightened her chest and answered bravely: "It means exactly what it says! I like Lu Yi, and I believe that he will become your brother-in-law in the future!"
Yan Shifan's eyes widened with anger, and he refused categorically: "I will never agree to this!"
Youyou looked at the person in front of her stubbornly and said firmly: "Even if you don't agree, I have decided on him! Anyway, I like him as a person, not other things. It doesn't matter even if you don't agree. I don't need your approval at all!" Her eyes were full of persistence and indomitable spirit.
Yan Shifan was so angry that his face turned blue. He pointed at Youyou and said the word "you" three times in a row: "You...you...you really make me so mad! Father will definitely not agree with you doing this!" He never thought that his always well-behaved and obedient sister would so resolutely resist the family's wishes.
However, Youyou did not have the slightest intention of backing down. Instead, she raised her head and responded, "So what? I can marry Lu Yi without being a member of the Yan family. And brother, don't forget that I take my mother's surname. Even if you all don't agree with this marriage, it doesn't matter to me!" Her words were powerful, as if she had made up her mind to be with Lu Yi.
Seeing that his persuasion was ineffective, Yan Shifan turned his attention to Lu Yi and shouted angrily: "Lu Jingli, are you the one who instigated my sister to do this on weekdays?"
Facing Yan Shifan's questioning, Lu Yi seemed very calm. He smiled slightly, and then answered solemnly: "Master Yan, please calm down. Youyou's affairs are my affairs. But please rest assured that our Lu family will not neglect the etiquette and procedures. After returning to Beijing, I will definitely let my father come to propose marriage, and marry Youyou in the most grand way. I will never treat her badly." After that, he looked at Youyou beside him affectionately, his eyes full of tenderness and love.
"Okay, let's put this matter aside for now! What are you doing here in such a sneaky way? And you choose to fiddle with these things in the middle of the night." Yan Shifan frowned and asked suspiciously.
"It's just to lure the snake out of the cave." Lu Yi responded calmly, his words concise and clear.
After that, Lu Yi walked towards Zhai Lanye with big strides, staring at her with a sharp gaze, and asked sternly: "Zhai Lanye, let me ask you, why did you kill Yun Zhaiyue and Lord Zhou? Also, how did you develop such impressive kung fu skills?"
Zhai Lanye raised her head slightly, a hint of barely perceptible panic flashed in her eyes, but she soon regained her composure. She opened her red lips and slowly said, "My father was originally a wandering man, so I learned some martial arts from him since I was a child. Later, my family suffered a sudden change and fell into poverty. I had no choice but to hide in this opera troupe to avoid disaster. When I first joined the troupe, I fell in love with Yun Zhaiyue. Unfortunately, things did not go as planned, and Yun Zhaiyue lost his voice due to an accident. Seeing him so depressed and lonely, I felt so distressed, so I personally wrote a good play for him, and even hid behind the scenes every day to sing for him on stage. For all these efforts, I have never complained. However, what I cannot tolerate is that Yun Zhaiyue accepted my help with peace of mind on the one hand, but on the other hand, he fell in love with another woman." At this point, Zhai Lanye's tone unconsciously became heavier, and deep resentment was revealed in her eyes.
