Chapter 321 Letting go of his brother and running away alone
The Wei family deserves to be a family of military generals. Although the eldest son of the Wei family has no martial arts attainments, he still inherited his father Wei Mingting's observation and insight. Otherwise, he would not have found the place where they were detained so quickly.
It's a pity that Young Master Wei still underestimated the enemy. He didn't expect what kind of enemy he was facing, so he became a prisoner with them.
But this is no wonder to him. Mr. Wei, who is in Taizhou, probably never dreamed of how powerful the forces involved in this kidnapping were.
Wei Yichen is not in any mood to listen to any praise for him at the moment.
He just wants to know why that simple Wanwan got together with a man.
"Wanwan, tell the eldest brother, what is going on? Why are you so close to this man?"
At this moment, Wei Qingwan's body was still tightly attached to Qi Zhen's, and the intimacy between the two was self-evident.
Realizing this, Wei Qingwan hurriedly distanced herself from Qi Zhen, and then tried to explain: "Brother, don't be angry, I'm just afraid of the cold, so I get closer to Mr. Qi to keep out the cold..."
"The woman I saw having a tryst with this person on the back hill of Anzhou Academy that day was you, and you still lied to me that you had never been to Anzhou Academy!" Wei Yichen accused again.
Wei Qingwan bit her lip, she couldn't defend herself this time.
She did go that day, because she had something to do with the magistrate that day, and everyone had half a day off, so she went out for a walk with Mr. Qi in the name of learning embroidery from the embroiderer during that half day.
Wei Qingwan's silence shattered Wei Yichen's last hope.
No matter what the owner of the shop said before, no matter how some signs explained the problem, Wei Yichen was unwilling to believe that the younger sister he watched and grew up would do such an outrageous behavior.
"How could you do such a shameless thing?" Wei Yichen was very angry, not only angry at Wei Qingwan's outrageous behavior, but also angry at her deceiving herself.
"Brother, don't be angry, Mr. Qi and I are in love with each other. We have never done anything beyond the rules!" Wei Qingwan quickly explained to Wei Yichen.
"Are you still saying that you have not violated the rules? Did you teach you this way when you were young?! After studying for so many years, you have learned to be as frivolous as a girl in a hook?!" Wei Yichen was heartbroken.
"Brother, I really didn't do anything beyond the rules! Mr. Qi is Mr. Qianqian, and nothing else happened between the two of us. We just admire each other. Brother, you have to trust me!" Wei Qingwan Tried to defend himself.
Wei Yichen didn't want to hear any more excuses from Wei Qingwan, he closed his eyes in pain, if possible, he even wanted to close his ears.
Seeing Wei Yichen like this, Wei Qingwan was scared and sad, and couldn't help crying again.
Qi Zhen watched quietly from the side, and did not express his opinion on the dispute between the siblings.
At this moment, there was another commotion outside, and the movement was even bigger than the previous one.
After a while, the door opened again, and a few men in casual clothes came in with torches in their hands, illuminating the small room at once.
"Young master!" The visitor saluted Qi Zhen.
Immediately afterwards, he came forward and untied Qi Zhen.
"How's the situation outside?" Qi Zhen asked.
The sound of fighting outside has not yet ended.
"My lord, the opponent has a large number of people, and it is difficult for us to settle down in a short time. We are afraid that the opponent will have reinforcements, so we can only choose to break through first to rescue the son. Please also leave with us as soon as possible, sir."
Qi Zhen nodded his head, and then ordered someone to untie Wei Qingwan beside him.
After gaining freedom, Wei Qingwan wanted to untie Wei Yichen, but was held back by Qi Zhen.
"If you save him, you won't be able to live. He already knows about you. If he spreads the word, there will be no place for you in this world." Qi Zhen reminded Wei Qingwan.
Wei Qingwan was stunned.
Qi Zhen continued to remind Wei Qingwan: "Think clearly, even if you and I talk about marriage in the future, if the news of your private tryst gets out, my family will not agree to me marrying you."
"But...he is my elder brother, he probably won't..." Wei Qingwan lowered her voice, and then looked at Wei Yichen.
Wei Yichen has opened his eyes at this moment, and his eyes met Wei Qingwan's.
"You said this, which means that you are not sure whether he will say it. Looking at him like this, it is hard to say whether he can forgive you for deceiving him. How can you guarantee that he will keep his mouth shut for you? Or do you want to Gambling your own future and life? Once the news gets out, have you thought about what kind of situation you will face?"
Wei Qingwan's face was waxy white.
She is not the biological daughter of the Wei family, if this happens again, she will definitely be kicked out by the Wei family!
Without her identity and her reputation, the only thing waiting for her is death!
No! Can't! She doesn't want to die! She doesn't want to be kicked out either!
"Let's go." Qi Zhen urged.
"But..." Wei Qingwan hesitated, looking at Qi Zhen and Wei Yichen.
Seeing that Wei Qingwan couldn't make a decision, Qi Zhen pulled her away with him.
Wei Qingwan took two steps and turned her head, her gaze refused to move away from Wei Yichen's body, with hesitation in her eyes.
But her feet still kept pace with Qi Zhen, and she left the cell where they were held step by step...
Wei Yichen watched Wei Qingwan leave helplessly, watched the light in the room dissipate little by little, and returned to the original darkness, and watched the door close again.
He didn't reprimand loudly, let alone ask for help.
Just watching calmly, his once most trusted and beloved sister left him to escape alone.
After a long time, Wei Yichen suddenly laughed.
At the beginning, it was a low-pitched laugh, laughing and laughing, the voice became louder and louder, until the end of the laugh, the voice became shrill...
After an unknown amount of time, the commotion outside stopped.
Someone entered the room where Wei Yichen was locked up again, and the other party was a little surprised when he found that there was only one person left in the room.
"I didn't expect to leave one, but it is probably useless. Forget it, let's report to the master first, and see if we still want to save this person's life."
Wei Yichen didn't know who the master he was talking about was, nor did he know what kind of dispute he was involved in.
The answers to these questions don't seem to matter so much to him today.
He knew that he would most likely die, and there was a high probability that he would never be able to get out of this cell again.
He leaned against the yellow muddy wall, looking at the only small window, feeling the chill that should not have been in July.
The coldness in the prison cell can't match the bone-chilling coldness of being betrayed by the sister who I trusted and grew up with.
