Wei Bingyan and Li Yuyan walked out of the academy one after the other. Anxiang looked at them, lowered her head and followed closely behind them.

"You hit Lord Chu's daughter, she won't let it go." Li Yuyan suddenly opened his mouth softly, his eyes looking straight ahead calmly, his pupils very deep, it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

"I was just using her way of reasoning to deal with her." Wei Bingyan said calmly.

Li Yuyan nodded and said, "This approach is actually quite good." The truth is that whoever is more powerful wins.

"Master Li, there's really no need to trouble you to send me off." Wei Bingyan's delicate brows were tightly furrowed. She had no idea what Li Yuyan was trying to do.

He was clearly very wary of her before yesterday, feeling as if she would drag down and slander their Li family. Why is he suddenly so concerned about her today?

Wasn't he unwilling to acknowledge her as his junior sister?

"Junior sister, there's no need to be so polite. You were frightened just now, and it's only right for me to send you back." Every word Li Yuyan said made people feel refreshed, and he also had a handsome face. Anyone who heard these words would be eager to make a move.

But that was someone else, not Wei Bingyan.

"Third Senior Brother really makes me feel extremely humbled." Wei Bingyan said coldly. She was not sure whether this side of Li Yuyan was his true character.

Whether in her previous life or this life, she felt that such a man was not like a real person. He seemed to be wearing an exquisite mask, and no one knew what he was really like.

"Junior sister, just get used to it gradually." Li Yuyan said with a smile.

How come she didn't realize that Li Yuyan could have such a despicable side?

Wei Bingyan held her breath, and she couldn't win the argument with him no matter what, so she just said nothing, pursed her chubby red lips, and didn't speak another word to Li Yuyan until she stepped out of the academy and got on the carriage.

Li Yuyan sat in his carriage and followed closely behind Wei Bingyan. The warm smile on his face disappeared without a trace, and the expression on his face became unfathomable.

After Wei Bingyan's carriage stopped in front of the Wei family's gate, she did not go to thank Li Yuyan. After getting off the carriage, she walked into the house with Anxiang, without even looking at Li Yuyan who was following her from time to time.

Li Yuyan looked at her back, which seemed to be getting smaller and smaller with a raging flame, and his lips suddenly pursed.

Wei Bingyan walked quickly into the inner courtyard and saw Li Yong, the servant beside Wei Zhong, coming over in a hurry. When she saw her, she was obviously relieved, "Miss, you are back."

"What happened?" Wei Bingyan asked.

"The old man just came back from Lord Chu's place. He heard from others about the young lady and Miss Chu. He was talking to his wife about it and asked me to go to the college and invite you back." Li Yong said.

Wei Bingyan raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that the news would reach Wei Zhong's ears so quickly. "Is my father very angry?"

"Master... he doesn't look very happy." Li Yong said softly, "Miss, please don't get excited and talk back to Master. Master still loves you from beginning to end."

"Got it." Wei Bingyan smiled lightly and walked towards the main courtyard.

As soon as he walked into the room, he saw Wei Zhong sitting there with a sullen face as expected. Xiao was listening to him speaking softly, but it was unclear what he was saying.

"Father, Mother." Wei Bingyan bowed respectfully with a faint smile on her face, without any sign of nervousness at all.

"Bingyan, you are becoming more and more reckless and less and less well-mannered!" Wei Zhong scolded angrily.

Just now at Lord Chu's place, the marriage between the two families was being discussed well, when suddenly Mrs. Chu came with her daughter, pointed at the swollen and loud slap marks on her daughter's face, and said that it was caused by his daughter, and kept muttering that the marriage would not take place.

It was Lord Chu who scolded Mrs. Chu and her daughter back, otherwise he would not have known what to say.

Wei Bingyan lowered her eyebrows and closed her eyes, "Father, I don't know where I went wrong."

"Don't you know you are wrong? Did you beat the legitimate son of the Marquis of Chu?" Wei Zhong asked loudly.

"I hit him!" Wei Bingyan said softly, with an attitude that showed she was sincerely admitting her mistake.

"You..." Wei Zhong was so angry at her beating that he stared blankly, "Don't you know that we are going to be relatives with Lord Chu? How can you beat his daughter?"

Wei Bingyan raised her head and looked at Wei Zhong calmly, "Father, Chu Xueying beat Xie Shujing and wanted to beat me now. This is her logic. Her logic is that whichever family has the most power is the right one.

In this case, I naturally need to reason with her. Moreover, she embarrassed me in front of everyone and asked why I was not betrothed to Prince Chu, and deliberately humiliated me...

Father, I am a young lady who has never married out, and I am a member of the Wei family. How can I be insulted by her like that? I must let her know that the Wei family is not so easy to mess with. "

"She wanted to hit you? Did she hit you? Are you hurt?" Xiao immediately stood up worriedly, pulled Wei Bingyan to examine her carefully, with a look of heartache on her face. However, she knew deep down in her heart that her daughter would never be bullied by Chu Xueying. She just wanted to do it to show Wei Zhong.

Wei Bingyan squeezed Xiao's hand tightly, "Mother, I am fine. I am the legitimate daughter of the Wei family. How can I allow others to oppress and bully me so easily? Didn't father say before? It is better to bully others by three points than to let others oppress us by one point."

"I actually remember your words very clearly!" Wei Zhong snorted.

"I will never forget what my father said." Wei Bingyan said humbly, "Besides, even if Chu Xueying is the daughter of Lord Chu, so what? She doesn't take our Wei family seriously, so why should I respect her?"

"The misunderstanding between you little girls should be cleared up. It's not as serious as you say. After all, the Chu Marquis' family is our children's in-laws. You are not allowed to create any conflicts with Miss Chu again." Wei Zhong said unhappily.

It was actually the woman of Lord Chu who attacked first, so he naturally couldn't blame his daughter. Therefore, he did not scold Wei Bingyan harshly, but repeatedly warned her to pay special attention to her behavior in the future.

The contradiction has already arisen, how can it be easily resolved? Wei Bingyan bowed her head and deeply learned from him, "Yes, father, your daughter will not be emotionally excited anymore."

Wei Zhong nodded, and naturally believed that the Lord of Chu would not let such a trivial matter affect their big things!

Afterwards, Wei Zhong talked about going back to the capital in a few days, "...You seem to be feeling better, would you like to go with me this time? After all, the New Year is coming soon, and it would be better if you could host the ceremony at home."

Xiao originally wanted to go back with him, but she felt bad when she thought about how he had been staying in the two newly-built houses every day. "I actually want to go back to take care of the household affairs, but...Mrs. Li said that the acupuncture treatment cannot be stopped and needs to be continued for a while. I'm afraid I won't be able to go back this year."

Wei Zhong's request was inappropriate. Anyway, the old man had said that Xiao should rest and recuperate here, and not worry about the family. "That's great. You should get well and go home early."

"Yes, sir!" Xiao said softly.

After giving some instructions, Wei Zhong left.

Wei Bingyan, who had been standing aside, had already disappeared without a trace due to the anger she felt in her heart caused by Li Yuyan.

Thinking that Wei Zhong was going back to the capital, and that she and her mother would live a happy life again, how could she not be happy deep down in her heart?

"Mom, when March comes, let's go enjoy the peach blossoms together." Wei Bingyan happily sat next to Xiao and said with a smile.

Xiao tapped her nose coquettishly, "What happened to you in the academy?"
