Chapter 2 Ye Ling'er: You are at the Qi training stage, and you dare to slander me? Ye Ling'er looked suspicious and asked, "What bracelet?" "Oh, you're playing dumb, aren't you?" Qin Rou said unhappily, "It was the gold-inlaid white jade bracelet I got on my birthday a few days ago, which was worth eight hundred taels of silver." "I showed you that jade bracelet yesterday, and you said it was beautiful and you liked it very much. Have you forgotten it?" Ye Ling'er reminisced for a while and remembered the matter of Qin Rou's bracelet. After Qin Rou got the bracelet, she brought it to school and showed it off to her classmates. He even insisted on showing her the bracelet, and she could only politely compliment it on how beautiful it was. Ye Ling'er shook her head. "I didn't see it, let alone steal it." "I do not believe!" Qin Rou sneered and said, "I put the bracelet in the desk last night, but it disappeared when I came here today."
"You are the last one to leave after school every day. If it wasn't you who stole it, who else could it be?" Ye Ling'er was a little annoyed and repeated again, "I said, it's not me." "You still don't admit it?" Qin Rou was so angry that she clenched her fists and was about to cry. Ye Ling'er knew that Qin Rou was used to playing this kind of trick on a daily basis, and her tears fell as if there was a switch on. It is precisely because of her profound green tea skills that many rich young men surround her and are bewitched by her. As expected, seeing Qin Rou's tears in her eyes, the boys instantly felt sympathy for her and began to condemn her. "It was obviously you who stole it, why don't you admit it?" "If you dare not take the responsibility for something, what kind of hero are you?" "Are you not ashamed of yourself for a dignified Xiaoyao Palace to engage in such sneaky activities?" "Humph, their Ye family has long been in decline, what kind of royal palace is it?" "The entire Ye family is dead, only his father is left, and he's a hopeless drunkard." "I heard that the drunkard was living a life of drunkenness and had no time to discipline his daughter." "It's normal to do such sneaky things..." When Ye Ling'er heard someone mention the Ye family, she instantly became angry. "You are not allowed to slander my father!" Qin Rou was not afraid at all, "Then return my bracelet to us! Let us search!" "Why?!" Ye Linger said angrily, "You are making false accusations..."
However, at Qin Rou's command, the boys surrounded them without saying a word. He kicked over Ye Ling'er's desk and turned out everything in the cupboard. He also snatched her schoolbag and poured the contents all over the floor. Ye Ling'er clenched her fists in anger, but still forced herself to suppress her impulse and stood quietly aside. "Huh? No." "What happened? Did she hide it?" The boys turned Ye Ling'er's things into a mess, but could not find any trace of the bracelet. Qin Rou glanced at Ye Ling'er beside her, a sly sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth. The reason why she slandered Ye Ling'er was due to long-standing jealousy. In Bailu Academy, she is well-known for her excellent character and academic performance. Only Ye Ling'er can surpass her in every aspect. In terms of appearance, Qin Rou had to admit that Ye Ling'er had whiter skin and more handsome features than her. Many boys secretly regard Ye Ling'er as their dream lover. It’s just because Ye Ling’er is aloof by nature and rarely pays attention to other people’s conversations. Otherwise, these boys would definitely gather around Ye Ling'er every day instead of circling around her like they do now. When it comes to studying, Ye Linger is excellent in both academic subjects and spiritual practice. She always overshadows her and gets praised by her husband. Qin Rou couldn't stand the existence of a girl who was better than her in every way. However, today's false accusation was instigated by her father, who taught her what to say and what to do. As for why her father did this, she had no idea. The boys searched for a while but found nothing, so they all stepped back silently. Ye Ling'er picked up her schoolbag and said coldly, "It was not found, it was a false accusation." "Kneel down and apologize." "You...what did you say?" Qin Rou looked annoyed. But before she could open her mouth, the boys around her started to defend her. "nonsense!" "Ms. Rou'er has always been kind and excellent in both character and study. How could she possibly slander you?" "That's right, Miss Rou'er is the daughter of Prime Minister Qin!"
"Prime Minister Qin is a role model for scholars in the world, and is well-known for his ability to educate his daughter. How could he possibly slander you?" "It's obvious that your Ye family has fallen into decline, so a thief like you appeared!" Faced with everyone's accusations, Ye Ling'er simply laughed out of anger. Even with overwhelming evidence before them, they were still defending Qin Rou. Don’t these people have fully developed brains? "I see!" Qin Rou suddenly thought of something and said in a sharp voice, "My bracelet was lost last night." "You must have stolen it last night and hid it in your palace!" "Everyone, please accompany me to search the palace!" Hearing this, Ye Ling'er could no longer suppress her anger, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes. "You are so brave!" "Our Ye family is full of loyal heroes, how can we allow you to sully them?" "You obviously see that my Ye family has fallen into decline, with only my father left to support the family, and you think we are easy to bully!" Qin Rou sneered and said disdainfully, "My father is the prime minister of the dynasty, at the peak of his career. How dare you, a declining royal palace, slander us?" "ungrateful!" Ye Linger said coldly, "If it weren't for the Ye family's ancestors who fought against the demons, do you think your father would still be able to sit in the court?" "Oh, my father's talent has been appreciated by the emperor." Qin Rou said jokingly: "As for you, the Ye family, in my opinion, is just a group of incompetent rabble." "It's just that the current emperor has pity on you, so he gave you the title of King Xiaoyao." "If it wasn't because of incompetence, how could the whole family die out and only one drunkard be left?" "Oh, no, there's also you, a bastard who was born of a mother but not raised by one!" "Hahahaha!" After hearing Qin Rou's words, everyone else burst into laughter. Some other students couldn't help laughing as well. Listening to the people's laughter, Ye Ling'er's eyes revealed a strong murderous intent. Insult yourself, yes. Insulting the Ye family... She couldn't stand it! Ye Ling'er took a deep breath and a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"Qin Rou, are you sure...I stole your bracelet?" "You are the most suspicious!" Qin Rou sneered and said, "If you didn't steal, let us search the palace to prove your innocence." "Otherwise...it must have been you who stole it!" Ye Ling'er did not continue the topic, but asked with interest: "What realm are you in now?" Qin Rou was confused by the question and answered subconsciously: "Sixth level of Qi Refining... What's wrong?" Ye Linger smiled and said, "Then guess what realm I am in?" Qin Rou asked suspiciously: "Foundation building? What does it have to do with me? We are discussing the bracelet now..." The next second, no one could see clearly what happened. Then there was a shrill scream, and Qin Rou flew out. "A mere Qi Refiner... dares to slander me?" (End of this chapter)
