"I didn't expect you to be the head of Youyue Pavilion!"
In the box, Ye Rushuang looked at Lin Bai with a complicated expression.
When they first met, Lin Bai gave her the first impression that he was arrogant and liked to show off in front of others.
But soon, Lin Bai proved to her with his actual actions that he was indeed arrogant.
Her attitude towards Lin Bai also changed from disgust at the beginning, to expectation later, and then to appreciation now.
But even so, she didn't believe too much that Lin Bai could help her solve the marriage contract.
Because she knew very well what her marriage contract with Lu Yu meant to the Ye and Lu families.
However, she didn't expect Lin Bai to actually do it.
And it was the kind that completely cut off her and Lu Yu's possibility.
What she didn't expect was that the person who killed Lu Yu was actually Lu Yu's younger brother, the second young master of the Lu family, Lu Feng!
At first she was puzzled, but when she listened to Lin Bai's explanation, she understood why Lu Feng did it.
If it were her, she would kill Lu Yu without hesitation.
After all, the competition among the wealthy families is quite ruthless.
But what shocked her the most was that Lin Bai was actually the current leader of Youyue Pavilion who was elusive.
As the eldest daughter of the Ye family and the president of the Ye Group, how could she not know what Youyue Pavilion represented?
That entertainment sanctuary that attracted all the nobles and dignitaries had a pivotal position in Yecheng.
Even many first-class families did not dare to act recklessly in Youyue Pavilion, which showed that it was extraordinary.
Even the Ye family and even the Lu family had to think twice before they could move the Youyue Pavilion.
And Lin Bai, a college student who had not even graduated from college, was actually such a mysterious leader of Youyue Pavilion.
How could she not be shocked?
This guy not only had the capital to be arrogant, but also had a lot of capital!
Lin Bai looked at Ye Rushuang calmly.
"I said I can help you get engaged, and I never break my promise."
After being shocked, Ye Rushuang became worried.
"But have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this? Although it was Lu Feng who killed Lu Yu, you and Youyue Pavilion are also involved in this matter. Aren't you afraid that Lu Nantian will find out something and then retaliate against you and Youyue Pavilion?"
"Are you worried about me, senior?" Lin Bai teased.
Ye Rushuang glared at Lin Bai unhappily.
"Be serious, I'm serious!"
"Senior, do you think I didn't consider what you said before I took action?" Lin Bai chuckled.
"Since you know, why are you still..."
Halfway through the words, Ye Rushuang suddenly thought of something, and an expression of disbelief appeared on her face.
"You wouldn't..."
Lin Bai's mouth corners slightly raised, and a meaningful smile appeared.
...
Ye Rushuang's mood at this moment should not be too complicated.
She thought that Lin Bai's identity as the head of Youyue Pavilion was shocking enough, but she didn't expect that Lin Bai had other cards.
But she didn't ask more, after all, everyone has secrets.
"Since we have finished talking about the senior sister, let's talk about other things." Lin Bai suddenly became serious.
"Senior sister, how much do you know about your stepmother?"
"Chu Jun? Why do you want to know about her?" Ye Rushuang was puzzled.
Lin Bai did not mean to explain, but stared at Ye Rushuang with a sharp gaze.
"If I am not mistaken, the identity of the senior sister's stepmother should not be simple, right?"
Ye Rushuang was slightly shocked, and even the cup in her hand trembled a little.
She quickly drank a sip of water, and then pretended to be calm, "You think too much, she is just an ordinary woman."
"Since she is an ordinary woman, why doesn't the senior sister live at home, but choose to move out?"
Regarding this point, Lin Bai initially thought that Ye Rushuang didn't want to marry Lu Yu, and moved out in a fit of anger after a big quarrel with Ye Tian.
But when he found out that Chu Jun might be the direct descendant of the Chu family, one of the seven major families in Longguo, he found something wrong.
If he guessed correctly, the reason why Ye Rushuang moved out was most likely related to Chu Jun!
Such a sharp question also made Ye Rushuang even more flustered.
"That, that's because of me, I..."
However, before he could finish, Lin Bai interrupted her.
"Senior sister, you know that your stepmother is from the Chu family, one of the seven major families in Longguo, right?"
Ye Rushuang's pupils shrank suddenly, she looked at Lin Bai in disbelief, and her voice trembled a little.
"You, how do you know?"
Lin Bai narrowed his eyes slightly. Sure enough, Chu Jun was Chu Jun's direct descendant, but how could she, a direct descendant, marry Ye Tian?
After an unknown period of time, Ye Rushuang suddenlyThen she picked up the knife and fork on the table and faced Lin Bai with a vigilant look.
"Who are you? How do you know the seven great families of Longguo?"
Lin Bai couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw Ye Rushuang actually using a knife to attack him.
"Senior sister, you don't have to do this. No matter who I am, I won't hurt you."
Ye Rushuang frowned, and she put down the knife and fork in her hand after a long time.
"How did you know Chu Jun's identity?"
Lin Bai's mouth curled slightly.
"If I say I guessed, will you believe it?"
"What do you think!" Ye Rushuang couldn't help but roll her eyes at Lin Bai.
Seeing that Lin Bai didn't want to say it, Ye Rushuang didn't force it.
She just sighed and said.
"Chu Jun is the second young lady of the main branch of the Chu family, one of the seven great families of Longguo."
Sure enough!
"Isn't it said that the seven great families of Longguo will not marry outside? How could Chu Jun marry your father?" Lin Bai asked curiously.
Ye Rushuang was also a little surprised. She didn't expect Lin Bai to know all this, but she soon returned to normal.
"Under normal circumstances, the seven families of Longguo will not marry out in order to ensure the purity of their bloodline. But there are always special circumstances."
"Special circumstances?"
Ye Rushuang took a deep breath and said.
"In fact, Chu Jun is my mother's biological sister!"
When these words came out, Lin Bai was completely stunned.
If Chu Jun is the biological sister of Ye Rushuang's mother, then Ye Rushuang's mother is the eldest daughter of the Chu family?
Then Ye Rushuang and Ye Qingxue are half members of the Chu family?
Oh my god! !
This news really shocked him.
"29 years ago, my father met my mother, the eldest daughter of the Chu family, in Kyoto, and they quickly fell in love.
My father also won the recognition of the Chu family for his outstanding performance. As long as my father agreed, he could marry into the Chu family, but my father did not want to be a son-in-law, so he refused.
At that time, my mother was pregnant. She knew that my father had great ambitions, so she resolutely chose to leave with my father.
As the eldest daughter of the Chu family, my mother would never let the Chu family let her elope with a man, and she was eventually caught back.
But my mother did not want to be separated from my father, and began to threaten the then head of the Chu family, who was also my grandfather, with her life.
However, my grandfather's attitude was extremely tough, and he was determined not to let my mother leave. My mother, who was forced to do so, finally made an impulsive decision!"
When she said this, Ye Rushuang's eyes turned red, and her body trembled involuntarily.
The considerate Lin Bai hurried forward to comfort her.
After a few minutes, Ye Rushuang gradually calmed down.
"Because grandpa always disagreed, my mother, who was sick with lovesickness, finally chose to abandon her ancient martial arts skills. Abandoning her skills is almost equivalent to taking half of her life, not to mention that my mother was pregnant at the time.
When she was found by the Chu family, she was almost dead. After a rescue, my mother was finally rescued and the child was safe."
"That child is my senior sister, right?" Lin Bai asked.
Ye Rushuang nodded, "When my mother abandoned her skills, she tried her best to protect me, so I was safe."
"What happened after that?" Lin Bai asked.
"After feeling my mother's determination, grandpa finally softened his heart. After recuperating in the Chu family for a few months, grandpa sent someone to send Chu Jun back to Yecheng.
But the price was that my mother could never return to the Chu family, and the child she gave birth to had nothing to do with the Chu family."
Well, the opportunity to curry favor with the powerful is gone!
My dead mother-in-law, you are confused!
"What's wrong with you?" Ye Rushuang looked at Lin Bai with a look of regret and asked in confusion.
"No, nothing, go on."
Ye Rushuang didn't think much and continued to recall.
"My mother gave birth to me the year after she reunited with my father, and then gave birth to Qingxue 7 years later. Because she abandoned her cultivation, my mother's body has always had hidden dangers.
After Qingxue was born, these hidden dangers broke out. My father took my mother to find famous doctors, but none of them could help.
My father, who couldn't bear my mother's suffering, went to the Chu family without telling my mother. But my grandfather still hated my father for kidnapping my mother, so he was determined not to see him.
In this way, my father knelt in the Chu family for three days and three nights. Until the second before he fainted, the soft-hearted grandfather agreed to see him.
When my grandfather learned that my mother's hidden danger had erupted and she was almost dying, he was furious on the spot and severely reprimanded my father.
It was also from then on that my father knew that my grandfather missed my mother all the time, but as the head of the Chu family, he could not help himself sometimes.
After staying at the Chu family for a day, my grandfather sent the Chu family doctor to accompany my father back to Yecheng. At that time, my mother's sister, Chu Jun, also came back with him. "
Calculating the age, Ye Qingxue was just born when my mother-in-law had an accident, and Chu Jun was only about seventeen or eighteen years old at that time.I didn't expect her to come to the Ye family so early.
"Since then, has Chu Jun stayed in the Ye family?" Lin Bai asked again.
Ye Rushuang shook her head.
"Chu Jun has a good relationship with my mother. When my mother left, she was only 11 years old. She really missed her mother so much that she begged grandpa to come back with her.
After the doctor of the Chu family rescued my mother from the gates of hell, Chu Jun followed the doctor back.
But since then, Chu Jun has come to Yecheng to stay for a few days every once in a while. My father and I knew that Chu Jun was actually visiting my mother on behalf of my grandfather, so we didn't stop him.
This went on until Qingxue was five and a half years old. That day was Qingxue's birthday, and Chu Jun happened to be at the Ye family.
After spending Qingxue's birthday with her, my mother returned to bed, and then my father took Qingxue and me into the room one after another. When Chu Jun came out again, my mother had closed her eyes."
Speaking of this, Ye Rushuang couldn't hold it anymore, and tears flowed down.
Lin Bai reached out his hand and carefully held her in his arms.
She just hugged Lin Bai and started crying.
After a long time, Ye Rushuang got up from Lin Bai's arms a little embarrassedly.
"Thank you."
Lin Bai smiled lightly, "Compared to the thanks from senior sister, I am more curious about what will happen next."
Ye Rushuang frowned, "Why are you so curious about Chu Jun's affairs?"
"Senior sister, tell me first, I will tell you later."
Ye Rushuang could only enter the memory again.
"After my mother passed away, Chu Jun took her ashes back home. I thought Chu Jun would not return to the Ye family after my mother left, but Chu Jun came back three days later."
"Come back?"
"Yes. That day, Chu Jun and my father talked for a long time in the study. A few days later, Chu Jun married my father.
Later, Chu Jun stayed in the Ye family as the wife of the head of the Ye family until now."
"Senior sister, you moved out of the Chu family, it should also be related to Chu Jun, right?" Lin Bai asked.
"Do you know why Chu Jun married my father?"
"Is it because she wants to take care of you two sisters instead of your mother?" Lin Bai guessed.
Ye Rushuang nodded.
"Chu Jun did want to take care of Qingxue and me instead of my mother, but later I found out that she had other purposes."
"Other purposes?" Lin Bai was a little surprised.
Ye Rushuang said word by word.
"She wants to take me and Qingxue back to the Chu family!"
Lin Bai's heart suddenly shook, but he quickly reacted, "This should be the intention of senior sister's grandfather, right?"
"Since my mother took me away from the Chu family, my grandfather regretted it, and my mother's death made my grandfather blame himself.
So when Chu Jun proposed to take care of Qingxue and me instead of my mother, my grandfather agreed directly despite the opposition of everyone in the Chu family.
However, as a price, Chu Jun will take Qingxue and me back to the Chu family after we become adults."
"Did senior sister's father agree?" Lin Bai asked.
"On my 18th birthday, my father told me everything and let me make my own choice."
"Senior sister finally chose to stay in the Ye family?"
"Yes."
"Why would Chu Jun agree? Isn't her mission to take you back to the Chu family?" Lin Bai was puzzled.
"In the six years since my mother passed away, I have already regarded Chu Jun as my biological mother, and Chu Jun also regards me as her biological daughter. How could she do something to force me?"
Ye Rushuang's tone revealed deep emotion and gratitude.
"So you moved out of the Ye family?" Lin Bai frowned
"Since I became an adult, my grandfather has been urging Chu Jun to take me back. Chu Jun didn't want to force me, but when she saw me, she couldn't help but think of her mother and grandfather."
"She was afraid that she would waver one day, so she discussed with my father and asked me to move out."
Lin Bai was speechless. He didn't expect that the reason why Ye Rushuang didn't live in the Ye family would be so outrageous.
"I have another question."
"Since your grandpa wants you and Qingxue to return to the Ye family, why doesn't he send someone to take you back?"
"I don't know about this, but I think it should be related to Chu Jun."
"Okay."
"Now can you tell me why you are so curious about Chu Jun?"
"Actually, it's because of Qingxue."
"Qingxue?"
