Chapter 1340: Chapter 1139 True Feelings_1 Chapter 1340: Chapter 1139 True Feelings_1 Believing herself to be a target, Qiao Xiaomai stayed inside the Imperial Palace without leaving anywhere, while Tong Sanlang took on the task of head of the security team, patrolling Capital City every day.
After several days passed, one day, Yang Ye entered the palace again, no, more accurately, he fled into Da’an Palace in a very disheveled state.
The only person who could drive him to such a state, the only person who could make him flee, was Bai Zhi.
“You don’t know how relentless she is; she truly wanted to hang herself in my Wang Residence,” Yang Ye leaned on the chair, ceaselessly patting his chest with one hand while fanning himself with a fan in the other, his handsome face flushed red.
This was due to panic.
Just now, Bai Zhi had chased him all the way into the palace, and not daring to seek out Yao Xian, he came to Da’an Palace.
Da’an Palace isn’t a place one can simply barge into, not even if one is desperate.
Qiao Xiaomai was grinding soy milk with a small millstone; she initially did it at the kitchen door, but Yang Ye called her, so she moved the small millstone to the main hall.
Seeing Yang Ye’s state at this moment, she couldn’t help but click her tongue, “Hang herself?”
“Exactly, she was holding a length of white silk, saying that if I dared to marry another woman, she would hang herself in front of me. If she couldn’t have me in life, then in death, she would become a vengeful ghost and cling to me,” he said.
Having said this, and remembering the way Bai Zhi spoke, a layer of goosebumps formed on Yang Ye’s skin, and he could no longer fan himself; he put the fan down and rubbed his arms vigorously.
“Does she genuinely wish to die?” asked Qiao Xiaomai.
“She truly does, with her eyes blood red,” he replied.
Qiao Xiaomai, “… What a sin.”
“Why did you provoke her in the first place?” she asked.
At her words, Yang Ye sprang up from his stool, “Who provoked her? I’ve never flirted with her, not even when I was young and ignorant, I never spoke of marrying her or anything like that.”
“Then why is she so convinced?” Qiao Xiaomai couldn’t understand.
“How would I know!” Yang Ye slapped the table, visibly enraged.
Perhaps it was the charisma he involuntarily exuded that bewitched Bai Zhi into refusing to marry anyone but him.
But he was wronged!
He didn’t do it on purpose!
Seeing him like this, Qiao Xiaomai said, “Actually, she’s just counting on the fact that you wouldn’t really let her die.”
“Are you suggesting that I should actually drive her to death?” Yang Ye glared at her.
Qiao Xiaomai with an innocent face, “Then you just shouldn’t get married.”
“I don’t want to get married either, but the Emperor and the Empress are pressuring me to do so; I have no other choice,” he said.
“Then it would be perfect for her to make a fuss to the Empress. After all, the selection of the consorts is handled by the Empress; she should go find the Empress,” she suggested.
“She won’t go to the Empress; now that she’s set her mind on me, she follows me wherever I go, she even wants to follow me into the latrine,” Yang Ye said, hitting the table again, frustrated.
Qiao Xiaomai “…”
Suddenly feeling a bit of sympathy for Yang Ye.
Meeting such a crazed girl was terrifying.
But Bai Zhi’s behavior was selfish–it was an unrequited love from the start, her own infatuation. Now she was even using her life to force Yang Ye not to marry.
Too selfish.
“Doesn’t Bai Lao Wangye take care of her?” Qiao Xiaomai asked.
“He can’t control her; Bai Lao Wangye has been unwell and bedridden, and the guards of the Wang Residence can’t manage her,” he replied.
“Then this truly is an unsolvable situation,” Qiao Xiaomai was at a loss for words.
This was like the previous situation with the Zhang Family, who insisted on staying with Tong Tiehu, but the Zhang Family had Tong Tiehu to take care of it. Now, Bai Zhi clung to Yang Ye every step of the way and no one could handle her.
