“Haha, Yuan Silei, what kind of joke are you telling?” Ye Leng’an’s face was filled with mockery. “Who do you think you are? What makes you believe you can sway me? Moreover, you’re not qualified to deal with Ye Xiyuan!”
Even though Ye Xiyuan’s IQ wasn’t exceptionally high, she was cunning. Being reborn gave her an edge over Yuan Silei. Moreover, unlike Ye Xiyuan, she didn’t need anyone else’s help to deal with her. She could handle it perfectly on her own.
“l can do it,” Yuan Silei said anxiously. “Ye Xiyuan trusts me. If you truly want to deal with her, I can assist you.”
Yuan Silei couldn’t fathom that Ye Lengan harbored no resentment towards
Ye Xiyuan. Given Ye Xiyuan!s actions – usurping Ye Leng’an’s position in the Ye family and repeatedly scheming against her – she believed there was no way Ye Lengan could tolerate it.
“Yuan Silei, no wonder you and Ye Xiyuan are friends! It turns out you are cut from the same cloth!” Ye Lengan found it amusing. “She thinks you’re my best friend, enabling her to get close to you. Now, for your own gain, you’re betraying Ye Xiyuan here.”
Every word from Ye Lengan was humiliating for Yuan Silei. She wanted to escape, but for the sake of her body and future, she had to endure the humiliation.
“Ye Lengan, this is a fair deal!” Yuan Silei hurriedly spoke. “You must hate Ye
Xiyuan now. Helping you deal with her would make things easier for you, isn’t it?”
“Do you genuinely believe you hold such an important place in Ye Xiyuan’s heart?” Ye Lengan looked at Yuan Silei. “She never considered you a friend; you’re just a prize she won from me. Don’t overestimate yourself. Moreover, Ye Xiyuan’s thoughts run much deeper than yours. Unless she wants you to know, you won’t know anything by her side. Yuan Silei, understand your limits. You can’t outplay Ye Xiyuan.”
Yuan Silei’s face alternated between pale and red as she struggled to respond to Ye Leng’an’s cutting remarks.
“Yuan Silei, don’t waste time on me,” Ye Lengan said coldly. “We have no friendship. Remember, your current health issues are a result of your attempt to harm me backfiring. Do you not feel shameless seeking my help now?”
“l…” Yuan Silei’s face turned red. After Ye Leng’an’s harsh words, she felt ashamed and angry. Yet, she suppressed her feelings and pleaded earnestly, “This is my fault, but I’m willing to compensate. If you help me cure my illness, I’ll do anything you ask.”
“Do you truly acknowledge your mistake?” A cunning glint appeared in Ye Lengan’s eyes. “There’s something I want you to do.”
Yuan Silei’s spirits lifted at Ye Leng’an’s words. Urgently, she asked, “What is it? I’ll agree to anything I can do.”
“You can certainly do it,” Ye Lengan said calmly. “Leave immediately and don’t appear in front of me to disturb me again. That’s the greatest compensation you can offer.”
Yuan Silei’s hope turned to despair. Infuriated, she accused, “Ye Lengan, you did this intentionally! You’re toying with me.”
“Yuan Silei, you brought this upon yourself,” Ye Lengan replied coldly. “We never had any friendship. Even without Ye Xiyuan’s interference, we couldn’t be lifelong friends. We were never on the same side. I don’t blame you for agreeing to harm me for your family’s sake. We have no connection. Every man for himself. You chose the path beneficial to you. But now that you’ve chosen, bear the consequences. There’s no having the best of both worlds. If you want something, pay the price. It’s only fair, isn’t it? Your current predicament is the price you pay after receiving that huge sum of money. Accept the outcome. Don’t be shameless, seeking help from the victim. Isn’t what you’re doing now truly shameless? Put yourself in my shoes. Would you help someone wanting to harm you for their gain?”
Yuan Silei was left speechless. She couldn’t refute but remained unwilling to let go.
“My stance is clear, Yuan Silei,” Ye Lengan continued. “Perhaps I’ve been too lenient, making you think I’m easy to bully. Hence, you keep coming to me! I’ll warm you now. If your familys business encounters a setback once, it can happen again. I wonder if anyone will come to help you the second time.” Yuan Silei’s face turned pale. Trembling, she expressed fear, “Ye Lengan, you
can’t…’
“l can,” Ye Lengan interrupted without hesitation. “If you persist and affect my mood, I might complain to Huangfu Ruiling. I can’t guarantee the consequences then.”
She was genuinely fed up with Yuan Silei’s pestering. However, it wasn’t to the extent of wanting to destroy her. Therefore, she used Huangfu Ruiling to deter her..
