The Physician Wife Who Overturned The World

4. Be prepared

Xue Fanxin took the chicken leg again and started chewing on it. His gaze seemed to be filled with disdain as he looked at Li Yaoyao, who was standing in front of him. He sneered coldly. "Cousin, do you think that after pushing me off the cliff, I will still let you live a life as a rich woman in the Duke's Residence?"

The moment it was said, Li Yaoyao's face turned pale. He took a few steps back and almost lost his balance.

Xue Fanxin's words made Xue Batian recall this matter. His originally good mood turned to rage as he slammed the table and stood up, scolding furiously, “I almost forgot about this, how stupid I am. Li Yaoyao, how dare you plot against my precious grandson! Do you think I, Xue Batian, am dead?”

When Xue Batian slammed the table and stood up, Li Yaoyao was so frightened that she immediately knelt down and cried pitifully. He looked miserable and tried his best to explain himself, “No, I didn't push him off the cliff. There must be some misunderstanding here. Cousin Fanxin, if you want Yi Tian, I will give it to you. I beg you, please give me a way out.”

Yi Tian also remembered that Xue Fanxin had once mentioned how Li Yaoyao pushed him down the cliff. His heart was a mess, and he had not yet sorted out his thoughts. However, when he saw Li Yaoyao kneeling in front of Xue Fanxin and pleading, his heart ached. He stepped forward to speak for her, “Mr Duke, I'm sure Yaoyao wouldn't do such a thing. There must be a misunderstanding.”

"A misunderstanding? Do you think little Xin'er won't even know who hurt her?” Xue Batian believed completely in Xue Fanxin, standing by her side in every way.

As a result, Xue Batian's words were unbelievable to Yi Tian. To Li Yaoyao, she preferred to oppose Xue Batian. “Duke, everyone in the Duke's Residence knows that Miss Fanxin often opposes Yaoyao for my sake, so this matter is most likely a lie made by Miss Fanxin to deal with Yaoyao. He wrongly accused Yaoyao. I hope you can be fair and unbiased.”

"You ..." Yi Tian's words enraged Xue Batian, but he did not know how to retaliate.

Li Yaoyao knelt on the ground and secretly felt pleased. Thank goodness he got Yi Tian to come. Otherwise, he really did not know what to do now.

However, just as Li Yaoyao was feeling arrogant, Xue Fanxin casually said, "Cousin, this is why you made Xiao Tao trick Yi Tian into coming to the hall, right?"

It had to be said that Xue Fanxin's words had the power to change the situation. A simple sentence alone was enough to make Yi Tian, who was biased towards Li Yaoyao, waver. Although he liked Li Yaoyao, he was a smart person. Xue Fanxin's words made her understand that she had been taken advantage of.

However, he was willingly used by Li Yaoyao. “Nona Fanxin, maybe Yaoyao guessed that you would be after her, so she asked me to come.”

"Is that so?" Xue Fanxin laughed mockingly. He put the half-eaten chicken leg into his bowl, then raised his head and said domineeringly, “Despite whether Li Yaoyao pushed me off the cliff or not, we will rule out this matter for now. When the evidence is conclusive in the future, I will settle the matter with him. Let's talk about your wedding now.”

As soon as they circled back to the topic of marriage, Li Yaoyao became anxious. He didn't want to stay on the topic of pushing Xue Fanxin, but he didn't want to talk about marriage either.

However, the current situation was extremely unfavorable for him. He can't do anything!

When Li Yaoyao heard Xue Fanxin mention the marriage, she quickly began to think of a way to reject it. Moreover, he had to do it beautifully so that no one was suspicious.

“Sepupu, I know my mistake. I will not take Yi Tian away from you again. I won't say anything bad about you in front of her anymore either, and I'll never dream of marrying her again. So, I'm begging you. Don't come after me again, okay?”

“I'm just an orphan. My parents are dead. You are the only family I have in this world. I just want to live a peaceful life in the Duke's Residence. I dare not think too much about anything else. Cousin, I'll give you whatever you want. I just hope you won't expel me from the Duke's Residence.”

Applause, pat, clap.Xue Fanxin clapped a few times, and an unexpected smile appeared on his face. She said casually, “Sepupu, you said it so beautifully. I admire you so much! To be able to practice acting to such a level, you have to put in a lot of effort in this aspect, right?”

While Li Yaoyao was begging pitifully, Yi Tian's heart ached. Seeing that Xue Fanxin was still making things difficult for him, he was furious. No matter who Xue Fanxin's supporters were, he still reprimanded her. “Xue Fanxin, don't overdo it. Yaoyao is your oldest cousin. How can you treat him like this? I don't like you. I don't want to marry you. If you have something to say, just come to me. Don't bully him.”

“Yi Tian, have you heard this saying? Humans are invincible when they are shameless. Regardless of whether you understand what this means, I will leave you with these words. Also, I wish you luck.” Xue Fanxin easily dealt with Yi Tian's reprimand and had no intention of getting angry.

"Mr Duke, aren't you afraid of disappointing your subordinates by being indiscriminate and taking sides?" Yi Tian was not afraid of Xue Batian and started arguing with him. He really intended to protect Li Yaoyao.

“If I, Xue Batian, can't even protect my own granddaughter, why am I still alive?”

"Lord Duke, sooner or later you will be harmed by this granddaughter."

“You need not worry, Young Master Yi. From now on, you will no longer be part of the Duke's Residence. My temple is too small for you.”

"You ..." Yi Tian could not win against Xue Batian. Moreover, Xue Batian had saved his life, so he could not say too many bad words to her.

Li Yaoyao was very happy to see Yi Tian arguing with Xue Batian because of her. At least he didn't fight alone.

He wanted to see if the Duke really wanted to expel Yi Tian, his right hand.

Whenever Li Yaoyao felt that the situation was in her favor, Xue Fanxin would add fuel to the flames and counterattack. “Grandfather, you don't have to fight anymore. It is useless even if you fight. Yi Tian, you can take Li Yaoyao and leave the Duke's Residence. From now on, you will have nothing to do with the Duke. As for Li Yaoyao pushing me down the cliff, after all I did not suffer too much, so I will not argue with you anymore.”

Not a dispute..is it possible?

Impossible.

He only wanted to see if Li Yaoyao would really leave the Dukedom with Yi Tian.

"Are you serious? You didn't play any tricks?” Yi Tian did not believe that Xue Fanxin would be so good.

“I'm a silly and stupid girl. What tricks can I play with a smart guy like you? Since you don't believe me, go pack your things and leave the Duke's Residence immediately.”

Xue Fanxin's words made Yi Tian's heart soar. She had already started to suspect Li Yaoyao, but she still chose to stand by her side.

No matter what the truth was, he would protect Li Yaoyao.

“Two of you, get out of here. I don't want to see you again,” Xue Batian also stated.

Li Yaoyao originally wanted to struggle, but because of Xue Batian's words, she knew that the outcome was already determined. He sat on the ground with a pale face, his heart filled with hatred.

He hated Xue Fanxin.

Xue Fanxin, just wait .. Even if I had to leave the Dukes' Residence, I wouldn't let you go.
