Chapter 137

Lin Yuan subconsciously grabbed Lin Ye's sleeve, tightly, and hid behind Lin Ye.

This look only made Lin Ye feel more and more distressed, and he said in a deep voice, "Yuan'er, you have the courage to say that as long as I'm here, no one dares to do anything to you!"

When he said the last half of the sentence, Lin Ye glared at Qiao Nian fiercely, as if she was some heinous person.

But unexpectedly, a timid voice came from behind, "Brother, sister just came to talk to Yuan'er, she didn't do anything to Yuan'er."

Hearing this, Lin Ye couldn't help but turned his head to look at Lin Yuan, pointed at the mess on the ground and said, "She overturned the table for you, and you still protected her?"

Lin Yuan frowned and lowered her head, "Sister, it's for my own good. I was confused for a moment and killed several people. Now that their bones are still cold, I can't live so comfortably."

At this point, Lin Yuan glanced at Qiao Nian secretly, and then continued, "Brother, Yuan'er has decided. In order to atone for his sins, Yuan'er will not eat or drink from today until he has atone for his sins." until."

Lin Ye's eyes suddenly widened, as if he heard something unbelievable, "You want to go on a hunger strike?"

Lin Yuan glanced at Qiao Nian timidly and then nodded.

It was this glance that made Lin Ye grasp the key point.

He looked at Qiao Nian suddenly, his brows full of anger, "You forced Yuan'er to go on a hunger strike? Qiao Nian, why are you so cruel!"

Qiao Nian had already expected Lin Ye's reaction.

Not only Lin Ye, but even the entire Hou family will point the finger at Lin Yuan after learning about her hunger strike.

But, so what?

As long as Jing Yan's father can be rescued, everything is worth it.

At that moment, he curled his lips and smiled, "Young Master Marquis is so interesting. Miss Lin herself said it was to atone for her sins. Why do you turn around and say that I am vicious?"

Having said this, Qiao Nian raised her eyebrows slightly, glanced at the brother and sister, and then continued, "Weren't you ruthless when you killed those beggars?"

After listening to Qiao Nian's words, Lin Yuan's mind pictured the beggars lying on the ground covered in blood, and she couldn't help but stiffen.

Lin Ye naturally sensed Lin Yuan's fear, and immediately lowered his voice and said, "Even if Yuan'er is at fault, dad has already punished her with house arrest in Luomeiyuan to think about her mistakes, so why do you need to do anything extra!"

Qiao Nian sneered and said, "Thinking about it, huh, a few lives, just thinking about it. It seems that the Marquis has deliberately targeted me several times before because he wanted to use family methods against me."

Hearing this, Lin Ye hesitated for a moment, but then followed up, "How can you and Yuan'er be compared? Yuan'er is timid, this punishment is enough to make her realize her mistake! But what about you? You are as stubborn as a cow! Dad! Even if I use family methods, I’m afraid you may not be convinced!”

As he said that, Lin Ye couldn't help but sigh hard, and then continued, "I just don't understand. Why do you have to be so stubborn when you can obviously admit your mistake and you can get over it!"

"I'm right, why do you have to admit it?" Qiao Nian raised her chin slightly, scanning the faces of Lin Ye and Lin Yuan with her eyes, and then continued, "In short, from today on, Miss Lin will go on a hunger strike to atone for her sins until Lin Ye The Marquis is willing to let him go."

Hearing this, Lin Ye couldn't help but be startled, and then he looked like he was angry and laughed, "I'm just saying, how could you have trouble with Yuan'er because of a few beggars? In the end, you are still fighting for a Jing." rock!"

"I am for Jing Yan, and I am also for justice!" Qiao Nian raised her voice and said, "Three years ago you just wronged me for breaking the glass bowl, but now you want to wrongly accuse an innocent person of killing someone! Why should the real murderer not be imprisoned? , Jing Yan’s father must be sentenced to death?”

This real murderer refers to Lin Ye.

Lin Ye also understood, and suddenly clenched his fists, "If you want Jing Yan's father to be safe, it's very simple, just break up with Jing Yan!"

"I will not break up with Jing Yan." Qiao Nian responded coldly, his eyes falling on Lin Yuan, "Miss Lin will help the Hou Mansion atone for his sins. When the time comes, it will depend on the Marquis' heart, whether I can The marriage is more important than his only daughter!"

Lin Yuan saw a hint of threat in Qiao Nian's eyes, and reacted immediately. She hurriedly pulled Lin Ye's sleeve and said, "Brother, since Vice General Jing's father is innocent, he shouldn't be wronged." ! Please go and persuade dad! If dad refuses to let me go, I won’t eat for a day!”

Hearing what Lin Yuan said, Lin Ye was furious, "You girl, you must have been brainwashed by her too!"

But seeing Lin Yuan's timid look, Lin Ye understood again, "What exactly did she threaten you for? Are you so afraid of her?"

Lin Yuan lowered her head with tears in her eyes, "Brother, if you feel sorry for Yuan'er, just go and persuade your father to let her go, okay?"

"You!" Lin Ye was furious, but facing Lin Yuan like this, he really couldn't bear to blame him.

He could only shout at Qiao Nian, "Don't forget, who did you follow? If dad finds out that you used Yuan'er to blackmail him, see if he is willing to let me go!"

"He will definitely be willing." Qiao Nian vowed, with a smile on her lips that was both proud and bitter, "because Lin Yuan is the one on hunger strike, not me."

If it's Lin Yuan, he will definitely be anxious and distressed!

But if she is the one on hunger strike, even if she is afraid of starving to death in the Marquis Mansion, Marquis Lin will not let go.

She knew this clearly, so she came to Lin Yuan.

Qiao Nian's words only made Lin Ye's heart twitch one after another.

However, he didn't know why he had such a reaction.

In the end, there was only anger left, "You, okay, okay! I'll tell Dad right now, just wait and see who will suffer in the end!"

After saying this, Lin Ye turned away.

Without protection in front of her, Lin Yuan subconsciously took two steps back.

The eyes looking at Qiao Nian were full of fear.

Qiao Nian just looked at her quietly, she actually didn't quite understand why Lin Yuan was so afraid of her.

Obviously, Lin Yuan was the real eldest lady in this mansion, and even if she was threatened by her, she shouldn't be so cowardly.

Is it because she is born like this?

Or has the life in the past fifteen years made her like this?

Qiao Nian frowned, not wanting to investigate the matter in detail. His cold eyes swept over the mess on the ground, and then he said, "It seems that the maids here are useless! How about this, I'll let Ningshuang come to serve Miss Lin for a few days. She was originally from the young marquis's courtyard, and she can teach the maids around Miss Lin how to serve the master."

No matter how stupid Lin Yuan was, she could understand that Qiao Nian arranged Ningshuang to come and monitor her.

Was he afraid that she would eat secretly?

She didn't dare to speak, so she could only nod slightly.

Qiao Nian snorted coldly, "It's getting late, Miss Lin should go to bed early."

After that, he left with a wave of his sleeves.
