Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 504 Trust (5)_1

"Young Master, it’s terrible! The Eldest Young Master has been poisoned!"

"What?" Ye An exclaimed in shock, taking a deep look at Shangguan You before striding towards the room. Shangguan You let out a light chuckle. He had ultimately chosen the Eldest Young Master over her, abandoned her. Should she cry, or should she laugh? Her life had been discarded once again. But it was alright this time—she hadn’t fallen too deep, and she still had her family.

"Shangguan You, what poison did you actually use on my elder brother?" Second Young Master Ye’s icy voice rang in her ear.

"Do you think I need to use poison? If given another chance, I would burn him with fire again, without a shred of mercy, because he doesn’t deserve it," Shangguan You sneered, turning away without looking back.

In the room, the Eldest Young Master’s entire body was pitch black. He lay stiffly on the bed, vomiting blood in spasmodic gushes. His face was as pale as paper, his breath weak.

"Young Master, the Eldest Young Master has been poisoned. If an antidote isn’t found soon, he may not survive half an hour," the doctor said. As his words fell, Ye An’s figure flashed and vanished from the room.

No sooner had Ye An left than the Eldest Young Master, who had just been vomiting copious amounts of blood, opened his eyes, the corners of his mouth curving slightly. Trying to compete with me? You’re still too naive. Third Brother is Third Brother; his heart will always belong to the Ye Family, and in his heart, I, his Eldest Brother, am still very important.

"Eldest Young Master," the doctor began.

The Eldest Young Master waved his hand, silencing him. This self-inflicted injury ploy had worked wonderfully. He hadn’t needed to say a word, merely acted. Not only had he dealt with Shangguan You and made his younger brother turn against her, but he’d also made his younger brother give up on her completely. Then, if An Ya tenderly healed his younger brother’s wounded heart, wouldn’t the two of them become a pair?

Thinking of this, the Eldest Young Master’s mouth curled into a smile.

"Girl, give me the antidote. No matter what, he is still my elder brother. Could you really bear to watch him die?" Ye An blocked Shangguan You’s path.

"Do you really think I’m capable of poisoning him?" Shangguan You sneered, her hands clenched tightly, feeling even more disappointed in Ye An.

"Girl, regardless of anything, regardless of what he has done, he’s still my Eldest Brother. I don’t want you to get into trouble, and I don’t want anything to happen to him either," Ye An implored, his voice thick with desperation.

"Young Master, don’t waste words on her! Shangguan You, hand over the antidote now, or you won’t leave here alive today!" An Ya shouted furiously. In an instant, Shangguan You found herself surrounded.

"Get lost!" Ye An bellowed.

"Young Master..." someone protested.

"Did you not hear me? Get lost!" With a sweep of his palm, Ye An sent An Ya flying. Seeing their Young Master’s fury, everyone bowed their heads and swiftly retreated. Tranquility returned to the area. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"Girl, do you really have the heart to make me suffer?" Ye An slowly approached Shangguan You, wanting to pull her into his embrace once more.

Shangguan You sidestepped lithely, her once-clear eyes now an expanse of ice. With a flick of her wrists, a vial appeared in her hand. She tossed it to Ye An. "This potion can cure a hundred poisons."

"Girl, thank you! I knew you wouldn’t have the heart to see me in pain."

Shangguan You sneered. She didn’t have the heart, true, but she hated being used even more, and she despised Ye An’s distrust. If there was no trust, why force this charade?

The Eldest Young Master. At the thought of that name, her eyes grew colder. She cast Ye An a deep look before turning to leave.

Watching her receding figure, Ye An’s mouth moved, as if wanting to call her back, but he ultimately restrained himself. Only when her silhouette had completely vanished did he murmur, "Girl, I’m sorry."

From upstairs, the Eldest Young Master watched the scene unfold with cold eyes, a slight smile playing on his lips. Even if Third Brother can’t let go, it doesn’t matter. I’ll ensure the rift between Third Brother and Shangguan You becomes irreparable. The poison in my system is one I administered myself. I don’t believe her medicine can cure it. I won’t let Shangguan You off easily.

"Eldest Brother, this is the antidote. Take it," Ye An said, taking a pill from the vial and placing it in the Eldest Young Master’s mouth.

"Young Master, what if this medicine is fake? The Eldest Young Master’s poisoning is very severe; ordinary medicine might not be effective," the doctor began. But before he could finish, he watched as the cyanotic hue on the Eldest Young Master’s face slowly receded. His body gradually recovered, and even his internal injuries began to heal. The words "the Eldest Young Master is in critical condition" that he had been about to utter caught in his throat, unvoiced.

Seeing the Eldest Young Master’s complexion gradually return to normal, Ye An heaved a long sigh of relief. Only after the Eldest Young Master had fallen asleep did he turn and leave.

The warm morning sun lazily bathed everything in comfort, the golden light enveloping Hidden World Village in an exceptionally soothing embrace.

Shangguan You wore comfortable jeans and a T-shirt, her hair casually tied back—an appearance so ordinary it couldn’t be more so. She was young to begin with, and this attire made her look even younger. Her originally innocent face now carried an added layer of indescribable purity, mingled with disappointment. Ye An didn’t trust her. He had even chosen the Eldest Young Master over her. To say she didn’t care at all would be a lie.

The warm sun on her skin brought no comfort; instead, her entire body felt terribly cold. After leaving the Ye Family’s villa, she had entered her space again to change out of the Ye Family clothes and into her own. Her identity was now public knowledge; there was no need to pretend or continue the charade any longer.

Ye An. The thought of his name brought an inexplicable ache to her heart. She walked step by step towards the Zhuge Family’s residence. Before leaving, she wanted to see Zhuge Feng again, and also Zhuge Feng. One was the person who had never abandoned her under any circumstances and had always believed in her. The other was the relative who had cared for her since childhood, looked after her like a father, and had even arranged everything for her.
