Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant

Chapter 432: Chapter 432: Don’t You Regret It

Without waiting for Ye Wenjuan to speak, he continued, ”If something really happens to them while they’re with us, the Ye Family won’t let us off the hook. The consequences are not something we can afford. By then, it won’t just be about getting my mother out. We might all be doomed.”

Ye Wenjuan’s expression changed as she asked him, ”Does that mean you’re not going to help me?”

Wu Bingjie saw her face turn cold and didn’t know how to respond. He could only try to persuade her, ”Given the temperament of the Ye family members, if they find out something happened to them here, they definitely won’t let it go easily. Have you considered the consequences?”

Whenever Ye Wenjuan recalled her second uncle’s family sending monthly packages to Ye Wenhui, and Ye Wenhui even receiving packages from their great-grandfather, she felt uneasy. Thinking about the contents of those packages filled her with genuine envy. I, on the other hand, have only received a package every two months since coming to the countryside, and I always find its contents shabby. Previously, when I shared a dorm with Ye Wenhui, I could occasionally mooch some of her things. But when I needed her most, Ye Wenhui changed dorms without a second thought for our sisterly affection. When the truth about my not being a biological Ye family member surfaced, Ye Wenhui didn’t mention a word of it to me. If it hadn’t been for the Zhang Family, I’d probably still be in the dark. How laughable! This is such a big deal, yet they all treat me like an outsider. Now, I just want to see the expressions on the Ye family members’ faces if those two sisters meet with disaster!

Though Wu Bingjie fancied Ye Wenjuan, he wasn’t foolish enough to gamble his own fate and that of the entire Wu Family. Ultimately, he did not agree to Ye Wenjuan’s demand.

Ye Wenjuan was furious. She kept her voice down but still roared at Wu Bingjie, ”If you won’t help me, someone else will! You’ll regret this!”

With that said, she ran off without looking back.

Wu Bingjie, worried she might get into trouble, quickly chased after her.

But Ye Wenjuan ran as if possessed, completely disregarding her still-unhealed leg along the way.

Ye Wenjuan, running ahead, had a face full of resentment. It’s bad enough that I can’t compare to Ye Wenhui and Ye Wenyue! But ever since I found out about my true parentage, I’ve secretly observed Chuyunyi many times. I discovered that even her life is better than mine! I’m so jealous I could die! What angers me most is that Chuyunyi clearly knows our true identities, yet when she sees me, she acts so nonchalant, as if she doesn’t even see me! I really can’t stand it! Right now, I just want to destroy them! Let’s see how they can still act so high and mighty, so nonchalant then!

As Ye Wenjuan neared the Zhiqing Point, she finally schooled her expression and slowed her pace before walking inside.

Wu Bingjie watched her enter the Zhiqing Point with a complex expression, then turned and left.

However, not long after he left, someone came looking for Ye Wenjuan.

At first, Ye Wenjuan assumed it was Wu Bingjie. After acknowledging the person who delivered the message, she had no intention of going out to meet anyone.

But soon after, someone else came in and called out, ”Ye Wenjuan, there’s someone outside looking for you.”

Ye Wenjuan said, somewhat impatiently, ”Tell him my leg is bothering me, so I can’t go out to see him.”

Not much later, the messenger returned, likely irritated from shuttling back and forth in the cold. ”That person said if you don’t meet him, he won’t leave. Hurry up and go.” After saying this, the messenger left, not caring whether Ye Wenjuan went or not.

Ye Wenjuan, worried that Wu Bingjie might still be around and cause a scene that would lead to gossip, went out with a cold expression on her face.

When she stepped outside, however, she didn’t see Wu Bingjie. She couldn’t help but mutter a curse, ”Bastard.”

After muttering the curse, she was about to head back inside when someone called out to her, ”I can help you with what you want to do.”
