“Order two men to enter.” She instructed Ye Zhixiang with a low voice.
Though the sound of her voice was low, Ye Jian had heard everything with clarity. After hanging up the phone, she noticed Ye Zhixiang was walking towards the outside, and a cold glimmer flashed beneath her cold pupils.
She continued while brushing her off: “Old Granny is still acting unreasonably like last time. Last time, I was still young, still immature, but now that I’m mature and I’m able to see through the masks of some people. Old Granny, don’t you think that I have to put my guard up?”
Walking before the coffee table, Ye Jian glanced at tonight’s dinner, the corners of her lips arched even higher. Captain Xia was quite proficient at ordering food, and it was a combination of reds and greens, her appetite was gaining just by looking at it.
After taking a look at her dinner, Ye Jian coldly glanced at the two bouncers who had just entered the room, and there wasn’t only coldness in her eyes; there was also mockery in them.
She swept a meaningful glance at the door, without a trace of fear on her face, she continued with an unhurried pace: “After all, I’ve almost died in the hands of my young aunt’s family, wasn’t Old Granny sitting there as well? I was really truly scared at that time, you know? Your granddaughter was almost beaten to death, but Old Granny, you didn’t even stop them.”
After the past was mentioned, Ye Zhixiang started cackling with a stern expression, “Yo, young people definitely have a good memory, they even remember things of a time long past. If it wasn’t because you shoved your cousin into the snow, why would your uncle go as far as to get angry?”
“Young aunt has grown old, though your memory is still well, I clearly remember Ye Ying and little cousin fought over food, and instead, I, the one who didn’t even have food nor clothing, was punished without reason.”
With an expressionless face, Ye Jian walked before the two bouncers, because these two men were standing right behind Old Granny Ye.
Standing before Old Granny Ye, Ye Jian pursed her lips and exclaimed longly: “Granny, the heartlessness you had shown me all those years ago, your granddaughter still remembers it till now. I’m not the only one who remembered that everyone in the whole village remembers, and they have always reminded me something afterward ‘Neither the venom of a viper’s fangs nor a scorpion’s tail can compare to the most venomous of them all, the hearts of married women,’ and urged me to stay away from Granny.”
Currently, the complexion on Old Granny Ye’s face was as sunken as water filled with rust, dark and brooding, yet still like water, “Looks like your older aunt had regressed over the years, spoiling you so much that you have an exaggerated opinion of yourself, and even dares to rebuke your own Grandmother.” She raised her hand and ordered the men behind her, “You two, escort this insolent granddaughter of mine back home.”
Years ago, she sat there in her chair, expressionlessly watching as Sun Yaozu beat Ye Jian till she fainted. Six years have passed, and she still wants Ye Jian to respect her as her Grandmother? She’s really out of her mind.
“Granny, I wouldn’t dare follow you. It’s been so tough for me to stay alive. Do you think I’ll dare acknowledge you? Dare to keep you here? Dare to follow you home?” Ye Jian let out a long sigh, and the beautiful Ye Jian stood before the two men who had stepped forwards, her right hand caressed her left wrist, the silver wire that had become a bracelet was now in her hands.
Between the time it took for her to sigh, she smiled faintly and said: “If you were in my shoes, would you dare follow after a person who wanted to kill you? I doubt it.”
She attacked promptly, entirely out of the blue, she wrapped the silver wire in her hands around the neck of one bouncer, tugging at it with her arms. She tightened it hard, and then she weaved beside the man whose face was immediately flushed red, she raised her leg and forcefully kicked at the man’s kneecap,
This sudden occurrence happened all too quickly, it was over before Old Granny Ye, and Ye Zhixiang was able to react, the bouncer whose neck was being strangled was half-kneeling on the floor without even letting out a shriek.
