I have suffered enough in my previous life, my cousin will never marry me

Chapter 102 Transformation
Ye Wanshu had no intention of paying attention to Qi Yunsheng at this moment. She quickly walked to the rack and helped Ji Yunze down.

Seeing that he had been tortured to the point of being in a daze, Ye Wanshu couldn't help but feel sad.

"Yunze, are you okay? I'll take you out right now."

Ye Wanshu was about to leave with Ji Yunze when Liu Zhang stopped them. "Cousin, Ji Yunze was caught raping a decent young woman. His behavior is extremely abominable and he has been sentenced to death. You can see him, but you cannot take him away."

Hearing this, Qi Yunsheng also stepped forward cautiously and echoed with ill intentions: "Miss Ye, there are witnesses and evidence in this matter, and no one has wronged him."

"Miss Ye, I haven't done anything to let you down. Please believe me."

Ji Yunze regained consciousness and saw Ye Wanshu beside him. He mustered up all his strength and quickly explained.

Ye Wanshu's eyes were filled with bitterness as she nodded repeatedly, "I know, I know you've been wronged. I won't believe their frame-up."

After saying that, he glared at Qi Yunsheng fiercely.

Qi Yunsheng didn't care and laughed extraordinarily: "Miss Ye, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. It's enough for everyone to believe in the court."

Ye Wanshu half-closed her eyes and looked at him, "Qi Yunsheng, are you so sure that you won't suffer retribution?"

Qi Yunsheng felt a little guilty: "I don't understand what Miss Ye is talking about?"

Ye Wanshu curled her lips: "It's better if you don't understand."

Liu Zhang knew his cousin's temperament. She had a harmless face and seemed gentle and well-behaved. If he really provoked her, he didn't know how miserable the ending would be. He secretly exchanged glances with Qi Yunsheng and quickly dismissed him and left with the jailers.

Gazing at the dark surroundings, Ye Wanshu first helped Ji Yunze to sit on the bench next to her, and gently leaned him against the wall.

After Ji Yunze was imprisoned, he guessed that Gu Tingchen had deliberately framed him. Now when he saw Ye Wanshu coming, he already knew Gu Tingchen's intentions.

I'm afraid he wants to use me to threaten Miss Ye to compromise and go back to Lin'an with him.

"Miss Ye, I am not afraid of death, but you must never agree to let Gu Tingchen go back to the Duke's Mansion with him."

Ji Yunze had long since disregarded life and death; his only concern was her safety. "Gu Tingchen is a cruel man who will do anything to achieve his goals. You finally managed to leave the Duke's Mansion, so you must not fall into his clutches again."

"I won't go back with him." Ye Wanshu shook her head and said soothingly, "A real man can bend and stretch. Don't talk about life and death lightly until the last moment. You must live."

"It's useless." Ji Yunze wanted to hold her hand, but found that his palm was covered with blood. He was afraid of dirtying her, so he just kept shaking his head.

He recounted the story of how Qi Yunsheng had used Liu Rouer to plot against him, and finally said, "Miss Ye, listen to me. You saved my life. I am satisfied to see you one last time before my execution. I have no regrets. I only hope that you can live your life as you wish and not be burdened by others."

"Don't say such depressing things." Ye Wanshu raised an eyebrow. "If it weren't for this world, you would definitely be the most dazzling person in the world. Promise me that you will survive no matter what."

Ji Yunze felt a pang of pain in his heart, knowing that he had implicated Miss Ye, and no matter how Ye Wanshu tried to persuade him, he refused to agree.

"You were able to endure the hardships of studying for ten years, so are you going to give up your life now because of this little setback?"

Ye Wanshu pondered silently for a moment and realized that it would not be easy to overturn the verdict in this case.

Liu Rouer is Qi Yunsheng's cousin. They have made the matter a dead end. The only way to reverse the case is to let Liu Rouer give in, or let the instigator change his attitude.

It's a pity that Qi Yunsheng is such a beast. It's bad enough that he let Chu Yin down, but now, in order to please Gu Tingchen, he disregards his cousin's innocence and doesn't even consider how his illegitimate son will face people in the future. Ah Yin was really blind in the beginning. How could she fall for such a man?

In her previous life, she had experienced many hardships and seen many people who had suffered greatly. Therefore, in her new life, she had never thought of wantonly taking anyone's life. She only hoped to get rid of the Gu brothers and live the life she wanted. But the world was not going according to her wishes.

If that’s the case, then let’s destroy this world.

If we don't let her have a good life, no one will be comfortable.

Looking at the disheartened Ji Yunze, Ye Wanshu said solemnly, "Ji Yunze, I'm sure you've heard about my past. From the Ji family to the Duke of Rong's Mansion, I've suffered countless setbacks in life, but I've never given up pursuing my dreams."

"Life is full of disappointments. All we can do is try our best to survive. Only by living can we have the right to fulfill our wishes. If you died because of me today, I wouldn't think you were great, I would just think your death was pathetic."

Not sure if he would take her words to heart, Ye Wanshu finally advised, "So promise me, live on. Do your best to survive."

After saying this, he resolutely walked out of the prison of the Pacification Commissioner's Office.

Since Gu Tingchen did not make Ji Yunze's crimes public, she guessed that this bastard did this just to force her to return to him, so it was not difficult to get him to let Ji Yunze go.

But if he wanted to completely protect Ji Yunze's life and future, he could only find a way to let Gu Tingchen personally get rid of Qi Yunsheng and his lowly cousin, so as to avoid any hidden dangers.

This time, she must have a good fight with those two despicable guys from the Qi family to see who is more evil.

Looking at the graceful figure gradually disappearing from the depths of his sight, silent tears slowly slid down from Ji Yunze's narrow eyes.

He had already guessed that Miss Ye would compromise with Gu Tingchen for him.

His heart was stabbed with pain, a heart-wrenching pain he had never experienced before. It was like his soul was being pulled out of his body alive, the pain was unbearable.

In the past, he only thought that passing the imperial examination would allow him to stand out, realize his ambitions, and give his beloved a peaceful life. Now it seems that everything he thought was too naive.

In this world, only supreme power can protect everything you want.

In the dark prison, Ye Wanshu's words echoed in his ears again and again. Ji Yunze gritted his teeth and clenched his fists secretly.

Perhaps, what Miss Ye said was right. She, a girl, could remain unyielding. How could a man like me take life and death lightly?

He will definitely take back today's humiliation a hundredfold.

Ye Wanshu returned to the mansion where Gu Tingchen lived. He was sitting at the dining table with a comfortable look on his face, eating fresh hand-pulled meat.

Seeing his cousin come back, Gu Tingchen smiled faintly: "How is it, Wanwan, now that you've seen her, can you sit down and enjoy your midnight snack in peace?"

After wiping his hands with a handkerchief, he stood up and helped Ye Wanshu sit down at the table, still with a smile on his face.

"I remember when my grandmother was alive, she would always buy a lot of fat sheep during the Lunar New Year. My eldest brother didn't like the smell of sheep, so my brothers and sisters forced him to eat it. Over time, he also fell in love with this delicacy."

Ye Wanshu had no intention of listening to him talk about these old stories. She just asked him coldly, "Gu Tingchen, what do you want in exchange for letting him go?"

Before Gu Tingchen could reply, Qi Yunsheng was already furious: "Miss Ye, don't be ungrateful. The Censor has shown great favor by allowing you to see that pervert, and you actually want him to let him go. Are you trying to frame the Censor?"

After he finished speaking, he added viciously, "My cousin's innocence was ruined by that scoundrel. Doesn't she deserve justice?"

Ye Wanshu shook her head with disdain. "Your cousin is so despicable that she doesn't even realize it. You've kept her out there and been living with her for so many years. How can she still be innocent?"
