The moment Ye Qingtang’s words came out, the Great Elder’s face froze.

“If the Great Elder really wants to investigate, you can go check with the Qin Luo Pavilion. Perhaps you can find out the real mastermind?” Ye Qingtang looked at the Great Elder with a smile.

At that instant, the Great Elder’s face darkened to an extreme.

Never in a million years did he expect that Ye Qingtang would actually notice the word at the end of the assassins’ sleeves. Although those assassins had oddly betrayed the Great Elder, he could not just bring them over and confront them.

After all…

He was the one who first hired the Qin Luo Pavilion’s people to assassinate Ye Ling.

Although the assassination did not succeed, if the news spreads out, he would…

The Great Elder’s expression became increasingly uglier. He did not dare to press on the matter after Ye Qingtang mentioned the Qin Luo Pavilion and could only forcefully suppress his emotions. Faking a calm front, he said, “Since you saw it yourself, I will send people to check with the Qin Luo Pavilion later. If it really is their doing, I will definitely make them hand in the real mastermind behind the scenes.”

The Great Elder took a deep breath and laid his words straight.

He absolutely could not let Ye Ling or the Second Elder’s people head to the Qin Luo Pavilion to investigate. Otherwise, the consequences would be unbearable.

“Since it is so, the Second Elder is innocent before the truth is uncovered,” Ye Qingtang said in a smile as she single-handedly spoiled all of the Great Elder’s plans.

At that instant, the Great Elder’s expression was ugly as if he had eaten excrement.

Failing to get rid of Ye Ling yesterday was a slip up, and Ye Qingtang’s discovery of the four assassins’ identity today caused him to be unable to charge the Second Elder for the crime.

The Great Elder no longer wanted to say anything and merely gave a faint, undetectable nod.

“Since Second Uncle has ended his seclusion, we can head back now,” said Ye Qingtang with a smile, which only deepened upon seeing the Great Elder’s ugly expression.

The Great Elder scoffed and turned around to get on the carriage without saying anything.

Seeing the Great Elder’s departure, the Second Elder finally opened his mouth after staying silent all this while.

“Tang Tang, it’s been so long since I last saw you, and I’ve never expected that you would change so much. Now, I can finally set my mind at ease.” The Second Elder looked at Ye Qingtang amiably. Both he and Ye Ling were originally worried that Ye Qingtang’s personality was too cowardly and that she might not be able to manage if she were to inherit the position of family master.

But now, it seemed that both of them had worried for nothing.

“Second Uncle, father has ordered people to prepare good wine for you since a few days ago. This is not a good place for us to talk. How about we get on the carriage and continue our conversation there?” Ye Qingtang looked at the Second Elder with genuine warmth.

In her previous life, no matter how cowardly and weak she was, the Second Elder always carefully protected her. It could be said that the Second Elder had already become her family. In this life, the regret from her past life was more or less resolved now that she stopped the Great Elder from killing the Second Elder.

“Sure! It’s been long since I drank to my heart’s content. I must drink my fill.” the Second Elder laughed.

Then, Ye Qingtang got on the carriage along with Ye Ling and the Second Elder.

The carriage moved. Although the Second Elder was injured, it was nothing serious. He picked up the wine and drank to his heart’s content while, in between, asking about the Ye family’s situation when he was not around.

When he knew that Duan Tianrao had broken off the engagement with Ye Qingtang and entered an affair with Ye Xun, his face darkened immediately.
