"These are all lies, all lies! Don't believe them!"
Lan Wanyu frowned coldly. "If they are all lies, why are you so anxious, Junior Brother? The more you want to destroy this thing, the more it shows your guilt."
Ye Xiuyuan paused, and in his gaze towards her, a hint of hatred flickered.
"Senior Sister, I have no enmity with you. Why do you want to harm me like this? Everything I've experienced—was it all your doing?"
He suddenly recalled the cup of tea he had drunk and became agitated. "It was that cup of tea! There was something in it that misled my thoughts, and all these scenes are fake!"
Song Xiaoling's voice turned cold. "Junior Brother Ye, my formation has no fixed pattern; it changes freely according to the inner thoughts of those who enter it. The unfolding of these scenes is merely a projection of your own mind. The fact that such scenes appear only indicates that this is how you truly think."
Ye Xiuyuan couldn't believe it. "Senior Sister, did you also interfere in this?"
He looked at the others present; aside from his Senior Sister, everyone else was here. Suddenly, he realized, "You all conspired together to frame me?"
Hearing the word "frame," Su Lingyue frowned slightly, feeling quite uncomfortable. She couldn't help but scoff coldly. "You're just crying thief while catching the thief! I’ll take you straight to Master and let you confess!"
"You can't do this! When my father returns, he won't let you off!"
At that moment, the door of the small room was pushed open quickly, and a figure in pale yellow rushed out to stand in front of Ye Xiuyuan.
The girl furrowed her brows and looked at them warily. Her expression shifted from confusion to something strange, mixed with a hint of struggle.
She moved her lips as if she had finally made a decision. "Even if Junior Brother Ye made some mistakes, there’s no need to cause a scene before Master, right?"
Her voice grew softer with each word. Under the suspicious gazes of her Senior Sisters, her face flushed slightly; she felt somewhat unable to lift her head.
"Junior Brother Ye has only made a small mistake; why be so harsh? We can just have a private talk about it. If we make a fuss before Master, how will Junior Brother Ye ever face anyone again?"
As soon as she said this, everyone’s faces showed disbelief.
"Third Junior Sister, do you even know what you're saying?"
"Third Senior Sister, wasn't this your suggestion? Why are you suddenly backing out now? Do you really believe his words? Third Senior Sister, you're being too foolish!"
Su Lingyue stared at her intently, remaining silent.
Something was off with the Third Junior Sister!
As she listened to their conversation, Yu Miaoyin's face showed a hint of confusion.
Before?
It seemed that this matter was indeed her suggestion. She had been angry and determined to drive Ye Xiuyuan away. But why had she suddenly changed her mind?
Her mind felt as if it were stuck in glue; every thought came with great difficulty. She stared blankly at Ye Xiuyuan's fair profile and suddenly realized something.
At some moment, she had begun to feel that Ye Shidi was not a bad person; the more she looked at him, the more agreeable he seemed. If he was a good person, then why did they have a small conflict? There must be some misunderstanding involved.
Yes, there must be a misunderstanding!
Listening to Ye Xiuyuan's various defenses just now, Yu Miaoyin suddenly found them very reasonable. After all, everything that had happened in this formation was merely an illusion; how could they take it seriously?
If someone killed in a dream, does that mean they are truly a murderer? It was just an illusion—there was no need to take it to heart.
The more Yu Miaoyin thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed. To accuse Ye Shidi based on an illusion was too careless! I think Ye Shidi is right; you might have wronged him.
Song Xiaoling and Lan Wanyu were momentarily stunned by her words, unsure of how to respond.
Lan Wanyu took a step back and quietly tugged at Su Lingyue's sleeve, whispering, "Senior Sister, the Third Junior Sister is clearly not herself. Could it be because of Ye—"
Su Lingyue gently patted her hand, signaling her not to worry. Her expression remained unchanged, calm and composed, leaving Ye Xiuyuan unable to guess what she was thinking for the moment.
"We were too agitated earlier," Su Lingyue said slowly after reflecting. "After thinking it over, what Ye Shidi said to the Third Junior Sister does make some sense."
Song Xiaoling turned back in shock, her eyes seeming to say, "Are you out of your mind?"
Su Lingyue simply gave her a look, urging her to remain calm.
Ye Xiuyuan was taken aback, feeling both incredulous and somewhat uneasy. The Senior Sister had been so easily persuaded by him?
He fell silent for a moment before speaking softly. "If Senior Sister can think this way, then that's wonderful."
He lowered his head slightly, an expression of guilt and struggle faintly appearing on his face.
I admit that in the past, Senior Brother Qi bullied me, and I did think about getting revenge on him. After all, there were times when he was truly excessive. However, I only thought about it; I never actually went through with it.
Just now, in the illusion, I lost my composure for a moment, which led to a misunderstanding among the senior sisters. It’s all my fault.
A hint of sympathy appeared on Yu Miaoyin's face.
How could she have doubted such a good person like Junior Brother Ye?
Junior Brother Ye, it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have formed a biased opinion about you beforehand. Now that this misunderstanding has escalated so much, it’s entirely my issue.
Don’t worry; I will explain everything clearly to them.
Ye Xiuyuan smiled weakly, a trace of gratitude showing on his face.
Thank you, Third Senior Sister. I don’t ask for anything else; I just hope that you won’t misunderstand me again in the future. I truly never tried to frame Senior Brother Qi.
Every word he spoke sent ripples through her heart.
She had never imagined that someone could speak so melodiously, so pleasingly, as if he were touching her very soul.
She nodded repeatedly, feeling even more guilty.
Junior Brother Ye, it’s all my fault.
Senior Sister, this isn’t your fault. You’ve just recovered from a serious illness; it’s understandable that you might misinterpret things regarding me.
Watching the three of them reconcile in such an absurd manner, they felt this scene was utterly ridiculous.
Yu Miaoyin’s bad temper—could it really change so quickly? If she were that easy to appease, she wouldn’t have spoken so harshly to Qi Xiao in the first place.
Junior Brother Ye, today’s incident was due to our mishandling, which startled you. You should go back and rest for now.
Ye Xiuyuan turned his eyes around and realized that this place was indeed not suitable for him to linger any longer.
He glanced at the stone in Lan Wanyu's hand, hesitating slightly.
Since it was a misunderstanding, it would be better to destroy such an object to avoid any further complications.
Lan Wanyu pursed her lips and hid the stone behind her back with some reluctance.
After all the effort it took to obtain this evidence, how could she just destroy it because of a few light words from Ye Xiuyuan?
Senior Sister, I think it’s still not…
