Chapter: 2325

Describing Su Shouli's situation at the time, a classic poem would be perfectly fitting: 'I intended to direct my thoughts towards the bright moon, but what can I do when the bright moon illuminates the irrigation canal?'

It can be said that Su Shouli's wife was desperate in her pursuit of Ye Changqing without hope and only married him after exhausting all possibilities."

So, Su Shouli has always lived in the shadow of Ye Changqing.

Talking about it, Ye Changqing's father was absolutely the most hated person by Su Shouli his whole life.

Su Ruzhi clearly understands these matters, but she never thought in her dreams that she would one day get to know Ye Changqing's son.

Moreover, she couldn't have imagined herself getting into so many stories with him.

Even her right leg is currently being held by him now.

Thinking of this, Su Ruzhi suddenly felt that the world really plays tricks on people.

She couldn't help but think to herself: "Throughout my life, I've always devoted myself to serving the Su family, even willing to sacrifice my own life for them"

"But I never thought in my dreams that the Su family would have me in this situation now, and almost took my life away"

"And this Ye Chen, as a descendant of the Ye family, was originally an archenemy of the Su family. Plus, he's the son of Ye Changying, which makes him a thorn in the side of his father Su Shoudao. Yet, it's ironic that this archenemy of the Su family happened to save my life at the most critical moment."

Ye Chen saw Su Ruizi's expression was very rich and couldn't help but tease her: "How? Now that you know I'm a member of the Ye family, are you going to immediately unleash your hatred for me as a member of the Su family?"

Su Ruizi hurriedly waved her hand, looking somewhat flustered: "It's not like what you think. If I knew you were a member of the Ye family before today, I would definitely hate you even more"

As she spoke, Su Ruizi sighed and said with regret: "Ah, now I've completely realized it - I'm just a tool for the Su family, and a disposable one at that. They don't care about me, their illegitimate daughter"

When she got to this point, Su Ruizi's expression was tinged with self-mockery as she said: "My father has always been extremely worried that my mother would find out about my true identity. Maybe he thinks it would be a good thing if I were to die, at least then my identity would disappear and he wouldn't have to worry about his beloved wife finding out about the reality of his past betrayal"

Ye Chen looked at Su Ruizi with some sympathy: "You don't need to be too sad about this. In fact, it's not all bad - you've at least gained a clear understanding of their true faces, and your fundamental nature hasn't been severely damaged. That's better than suddenly realizing it just before your death"

Su Ruizi nodded lightly, looking at Ye Chen's eyes with red rims, her voice trembling: "Ye Gongzi, I truly appreciate your kindness - thank you for being able to save my life without hesitation. If today's events were reversed and you were killed in front of me, I might not have had the heart to save you"

Ye Chen spoke seriously: "That's definitely true - you wouldn't even think about saving me, and you would actually want to kill me."

Su Ruizi suddenly felt ashamed and embarrassed, lowering her head, whispering: "This matter is indeed too foolish of me. I've always been thinking about serving the Su family and my biological father, but I never thought about what others see me as"

Ye Chen asked her: "So, do you have any plans now?"

Ye Chen looked at Su Ruizi with some surprise: "You're not saying you want to take me to Jinling, are you? Are you going to change your mind?"

"Yes." Ye Chen nodded and said: "I am indeed planning to take you back to Jinling, and I'm not afraid to speak my mind in front of you, even now. As for you, I don't absolutely trust you."

When he said this, Ye Chen continued: "So, after we get back to Jinling, I won't give you complete freedom right away. Instead, I'll keep you restricted until I've finished dealing with my own matters or until I feel that you're a person who can be completely trusted, then you can regain your freedom."

Su Ruizi nodded without hesitation and said sincerely: "I understand what you mean. If I were in your shoes, I wouldn't trust myself immediately either."

Then Su Ruizi smiled slightly, her expression bitter: "Leaf Gongzi, from now on, you'll have to put up with me causing trouble again" JrNovels.com
