Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved

Chapter 217 Responsibility, Not Love

Xie Chengyin was leaning against the railing, enjoying the breeze and drinking fine wine alone. He was drinking enthusiastically when he heard a female voice behind him: "You did it?"

Xie Chengyin turned his head and saw Yan Ci, dressed in blue, coming in from the door. He walked to his side, leaned on the railing, and looked at the people walking back and forth below like him.

He glanced at Yan Ci and continued drinking his wine without asking her how she knew he was here.

"Which one are you talking about?"

Yan Ci raised his chin and motioned Xie Chengyin to look downstairs. Two people who happened to be walking downstairs were talking excitedly about the incident of destroying a wild goose with a ruthless hand.

Xie Chengyin understood and knew that Yan Ci was talking about the gossip about Xiao Yizhu. He chuckled and said with some pride: "It's me. How is it? The effect is not bad, right?"

He deliberately found a lot of unfamiliar faces to spread the story of Xiao Yizhui's ruthless destruction of Yan in Dongdu. Even if someone wanted to trace the source, they would not be able to find him.

Yan Ci looked at Xie Chengyin, whose face was slightly flushed, and said bluntly, "I think your behavior is a bit childish."

Xie Chengyin raised his eyebrows, "Why?"

Yan Ci did not answer directly, but asked Xie Chengyin, "You don't think that this can ruin your brother and Xiao Yizhen's marriage, do you?"

Xie Chengyin said disapprovingly: "Even if I can't destroy it, it won't be in vain if I can let my brother see Xiao Yizhu's true nature."

According to common sense, Xie Chengyin's move is indeed a good idea, but for Xie Chengyi and Xiao Yizhui, this method is somewhat inappropriate.

Yan Ci had earlier learned from Xie Chengyin about the entanglement between Xie Chengyi and Xiao Yizhui. Their marriage had nothing to do with love. She didn't know whether Xiao Yizhui liked Xie Chengyi or not, but what was certain was that Xie Chengyi didn't like Xiao Yizhui.

Yan Ci said: "If you ask me, Xiao Yizhu's true nature is actually not important to your brother, and your brother may not know what kind of person Xiao Yizhu is. The reason why he insists on marrying Xiao Yizhu is that your brother regards it as a responsibility, so no matter what Xiao Yizhu is like, he will marry her unwaveringly."

Xie Chengyin frowned tightly when he heard this. He also felt that his brother's feelings towards Xiao Yiju were more of responsibility than love.

But his brother is a man who values ​​his promises very much. In his heart, personal feelings are not worth mentioning compared with the responsibilities he should bear.

Xiao Yizhui injured her leg because of him. Now, not only is she disliked by her family, but she has also never found a good marriage. He naturally regards it as his responsibility, so his brother insisted on marrying Xiao Yizhui despite his opposition.

But Xie Chengyin would never let his brother marry Xiao Yizhui.

Xie Chengyin's brows were furrowed into a "川" shape. He raised his head and drank the wine in the glass. "Even so, I can't just do nothing. As long as I can make them have conflicts and clashes, it is still possible to break them up."

Yan Ci laughed. Although she didn't know much about love, under Qiu Fuqiu's influence, she knew what could enhance feelings, especially in a situation like that between Xie Chengyi and Xiao Yizhui.

"Xie Chengyin, I have heard of a situation where two people originally had no feelings for each other, but when they wanted to be together, they were strongly blocked. For this reason, the two worked together to fight against it. Over time, their hearts became one, and slowly they developed feelings for each other. In the end, the two of them were in love with each other and could no longer be separated."

Yan Ci turned to Xie Chengyin and told him concisely, "You are not destroying the marriage, but creating an opportunity for the two of them to develop feelings for each other."

"Where did you hear this theory?"

"Qiu Fuqiu told me."

Xie Chengyin curled his lips, "You believe what she says."

Xie Chengyin said that Qiu Fuqiu's theory was too unconvincing, but when he looked at Yan Ci, he began to believe it a little.

Although his situation and Yan Ci's were different, the starting point of their feelings was the same. They faced the same things together and fought against common enemies. Over time, feelings developed between them without them realizing it.

Xie Chengyin shook his head, shaking off the chaotic thoughts in his mind.

Yan Ci's mention of Qiu Fuqiu gave him new ideas.

It's difficult to tear them apart by force, and I'm afraid they will develop feelings for each other, so what about adding another person in?

Among three people, one has to be eliminated.

Xie Chengyin curled the corners of his mouth and drew a new blueprint in his mind.

He asked Yan Ci casually, "Come to think of it, doesn't Qiu Fuqiu like my brother very much? If she tries hard to make my brother like her, then all our problems will be solved."

"Don't count on her. She was drunk the day your brother got married. Aunt Qiu said she talked nonsense all night. It seems she was really heartbroken."

"What's the use of just being sad? She needs to work hard."

"No matter how hard she tries, your brother rejected him himself, how can a girl be so eager to take the initiative? Besides, your brother has not only asked for an imperial decree, but has also gone through the formalities of accepting marriage. If Qiu Fuqiu goes again, she will be the third party. Does she want to be a concubine?"

Yan Ci became more and more excited as he spoke. It was clearly a matter between Xie Chengyi and Qiu Fuqiu, but Yan Ci was even more angry than Qiu Fuqiu.

Xie Chengyin was about to annoy Yan Ci, and was about to apologize and appease Yan Ci when he heard a loud shout from behind.

"Xie Chengyin, did you do this?"

Xie Chengyin and Yan Ci looked at each other, then both turned around and saw Xiao Dingyan standing not far behind them with angry eyes.

It was obvious that Xiao Dingyan came in a hurry. Although his clothes were neat, he looked dusty.

Xie Chengyin naturally would not admit it.

Xiao Dingyan also knew that Xie Chengyin would not admit it.

He has spent a lot of effort in the past few days but has not found even a trace. However, he knows that the lack of traces is the biggest problem.

He went through the people who might target his sister and knew about her leg disease in his mind, and the first person who popped into his mind was Xie Chengyin.

Following his memory and thinking, Xiao Dingyan felt that Xie Chengyin was the most suspicious. Since the Fengyang Mountain Resort, Xie Chengyin had shown great malice towards Xiao Yizhu. Although he did not attend the Naji ceremony, the pair of wild geese came from the Yongding Marquis's Mansion, so he could do something about it.

Xie Chengyin is the person who most fits both the criteria of knowing that his sister has a leg disease and having ill will towards her.

Now that he had the answer in his mind, he immediately came to settle the score with Xie Chengyin.

He wanted to compete with Xie Chengyin, but he didn't expect that the girl from the Yan family was also there.

He had met Yan Ci more than once, but every time he saw her, he couldn't help but look at her twice more, and this time was no exception.

When he saw Yan Ci standing next to Xie Chengyin, his fierce eyes froze for a moment, then he nodded to Yan Ci and said, "Miss Thirteen."

Facing such a polite Xiao Dingyan, Yan Ci couldn't give him a cold face, and could only respond with a faint smile, "Master Xiao."

"I wonder if Miss Thirteen could step aside for a moment. I have something to say to Xie Chengyin."

Before Yan Ci could answer, Xie Chengyin asked, "Is there anything that Miss Thirteen cannot hear?"
