The matter of the mute girl was thus resolved; staying by Ye Jiu's side, as long as she was not married off to the two monsters, she could do anything.
However, Ye Bai and Ye Hei often came and went from Ye Jiu's place. Ye Hei could remain calm whether he was truly or feigning it when seeing the mute girl, but Ye Bai couldn't manage. He lacked composure and couldn't help but harbor resentment whenever he saw her, even though he never acted on it physically.
In his heart, he believed he had been good to her, had even saved her life. If she didn't want to marry him, that was one thing, but she had even reported him to the master.
If the person she reported them to wasn't the master, both he and Ye Hei would probably have been captured and burned by now.
This was something Ye Bai could not accept.
While fixing Ye Jiu's hair, Liang Xia asked Ye Jiu, "Commandery Princess, why was Master Bai's marriage to the mute girl suddenly called off?"
