Fang, her head bowed, hesitated to speak. A sharp pinch from Madam Liu prompted her to start, but she was cut off by Ye Nanshen’s chilling warning, “Choose your words wisely. Any lies, and you’ll regret it.”

Fang’s legs shook, the threat rendering her mute.

Mrs. Ye Sr., irked by Fang’s evident fear, snapped, “Just speak up! What are you afraid of?”

Ye Shaochen tried to reassure her, “Fang, don’t worry about my brother’s threats. Just tell us what you saw.”

But Fang knew Ye Nanshen’s reputation for ruthlessness. Just days ago, he had brandished a gun in a confrontation, a fact well-known within the family.

Fang felt as though she was in a no-win situation, doomed to offend someone no matter what she said.

With no good options, Fang steeled herself and spoke, “I saw Master Shaoxian… kneeling before Madam Qi. Then she pushed him into the pond.”

She added, her voice trembling, “What I said is the truth, not a single lie. I only saw this much, and I didn’t witness what happened between Master Shaoxian and Madam Qi before that…”

Ye Shaochen turned to Rong Qi, seeking confirmation. “Is this true?”

Fang clutched her clothes, anxiously waiting for Rong Qi to deny it, fearing Ye Nanshen would announce her doom.

Sweat beaded on her forehead as she trembled.

Ye Shaoxian remained silent, his gaze dark.

Rong Qi, unflinching, confirmed, “Yes, that’s what happened.”

The room erupted in murmurs, shocked by her frank admission.

Rong Qi dismissed Fang with a nod, “Thank you, you may leave.”

Fang, relieved and grateful, hurried out, thankful for Rong Qi’s unexpected kindness.

Fang felt as if she had been pardoned. She was so touched by Rong Qi’s words that she almost cried. She did not expect Rong Qi to be so brave and kind.

Grateful, Fang left the room.

In the ensuing silence, Ye Shaochen sought Ye Nanshen’s opinion, “The testimony and Rong Qi’s admission match. What’s your take, brother?”

“I trust my own judgment,” Ye Nanshen responded curtly, deflecting the question.

Ye Shaochen, frustrated by his brother’s nonchalance, struggled to contain his irritation.

Fan Hui, worried about Rong Qi’s position in this controversy, spoke up, “I was with Rong Qi earlier. Perhaps I should clarify things.”

However, Old Master Ye addressed Rong Qi directly, “Tell us, why was Shaoxian kneeling before you in the garden?”

At the mention of kneeling, Ye Shaoxian’s anger flared, his heavy breathing and seething demeanor evident to all..
