After being reborn, I hugged the villainous boss tightly.

Fu Yizhou's face remained expressionless.

"The one I love is Ye Zhuxi!"

Ye Zhuxi glared at him, looking aggrieved: "Then why won't you let me hit her!"

"I'm afraid of hurting your hand. Besides, they don't have many good days left. Once Miao Xingren's crimes are proven, you won't even need to lift a finger; none of them will escape!"

Fu Yizhou's indifferent demeanor at this moment was completely different from his previous one. Ye Fan frowned. He was clearly coaxing Ye Zhuxi in a low voice, so why did she feel that he was just being perfunctory?

"Alright, you can go now!"

For a moment, Ye Fan couldn't understand Fu Yizhou. She pursed her lips and turned to leave.

Ye Zhuxi pouted: "I don't care, once everything is settled, you have to hand Ye Zhuxi over to me!"

Fu Yizhou took a few steps back, putting some distance between himself and Ye Zhuxi.

He frowned, his gaze sweeping over her for a long while before he said, feigning sadness, "Zhuxi, you've always been a gentle and kind girl. How did you become like this? All you think about is killing people all day long!"

"..."

Ye Zhuxi was stunned; she had almost forgotten her current identity.

After regaining her senses, she weakly accused the man with red eyes.

"It's all because the way you look at Ye Fan is so strange. I'm clearly the one you love the most, but you keep showing favoritism towards her..."

She paused, her eyes filled with tears, a sight that evoked pity in those who saw her.

"I'm afraid you don't love me anymore, afraid you'll fall in love with Ye Fan, this substitute!"

Fu Yizhou watched her cry, her eyes brimming with tears. Even though she had the exact same face as him, he felt an increasing loathing for her.

"You have too little faith in me!"

Ye Zhuxi looked up and met Fu Yizhou's cold gaze. She panicked, thinking that she had angered him by being unreasonable. She stared blankly at the man.

"It seems I've spoiled you too much lately, making you so unruly! It would be best if we saw each other less often in the future, so you can reflect on your behavior!"

After he finished speaking, he turned and left, never looking at Ye Zhuxi again.

Ye Zhuxi clenched her fists tightly.

"hateful!"

She thought that having this face would allow her to act recklessly, but she never expected that she would be restricted instead.

However, when she thought about who was responsible for all of this, Ye Zhuxi's eyes instantly turned fierce.

"Ye Fan, why weren't you killed in that fall?!"

……

Ye Fan played with Miao Miao for a while, when suddenly he felt a cold air flow around him, making her hunch her shoulders.

She looked up at the sky, which had been clear and sunny, but now it was getting cloudy and looked like it was about to rain.

"Miaomiao, come here, let's go inside and play, it's going to rain soon!"

Miao Miao nodded obediently: "Okay!"

Sure enough, no sooner had they entered the house than a torrential downpour began, followed by deafening thunder.

Miao Miao was quite daring; she even reached out and started playing with the water.

"No playing in the water! If you get sick, you won't be able to eat any delicious food!"

Upon hearing that she couldn't eat anything delicious, Miao Miao immediately withdrew her hand and ran to her mother's side, holding up her wet little hands: "Mommy, wipe them!"

Ye Fan couldn't bear to scold her, so he sighed and wiped her hands clean for her.

As she was carefully wiping her daughter's hands, she didn't notice several guards walking menacingly toward her from a distance.

By the time she saw him, he was already standing in front of her.

Seeing their fierce eyes, Ye Fan was afraid they would hurt his daughter, so he shielded Miao Miao behind him.

"What are you going to do?"

"Of course I'm here to take your life!"

Ye Zhuxi walked out from behind the group.

Seeing how much she loved her daughter, Ye Zhuxi raised her eyes and gestured to her subordinates.

"Throw this bastard into the well in the backyard and drown her. Keep the mother; I want to torture her properly!"

"You are not allowed to touch my daughter!"

Ye Fan held Miao Miao tightly, but she was no match for the strong guard and was pushed to the ground. Miao Miao was then carried away.

"Mother, mother!"

Miao Miao kicked her little legs, tears streaming down her face.

"Ye Zhuxi, if you have a problem, come at me! Miaomiao is just a child!"

"It's because this little bastard is your life that I want her dead, so you can experience this pain."

"You're so vicious!"

Ye Fan shouted angrily.

Ye Zhuxi curled her lips into a smug smile and ordered, "Take her away!"

Seeing her daughter being taken away, Ye Zhuxi knew what they were going to do. Her face turned pale instantly. She wanted to rush forward, but was helplessly stopped.

"Please, please don't hurt my daughter! I'll do anything you want, please!"

Looking at the woman weeping bitterly in front of her, Ye Zhuxi felt a surge of satisfaction.

"Snapped!"

She slapped Ye Fan across the face.

"You hit me before, now I want you to pay me back tenfold."

As she spoke, she raised her hand and grabbed Ye Fan's hair tightly, pulling it back with all her might.

"I'll let you hit me, just let Miaomiao go!"

Ye Fan's mouth was bleeding from the blow, but he was still pleading.

Not satisfied with the beating, Ye Zhuxi kicked Ye Fan several more times.

Seeing that she was still so worried about this little bastard, she suddenly thought of another fun idea. She curled her lips into a cold smile and uttered all sorts of vicious words.

"Don't throw it in the well, that would be too good for them. Cut off this little bastard's fingers, and remember, cut them off one by one!"

The subordinate obeyed the order, grabbed Miao Miao's hand, and took out a knife.

"do not want!"

Ye Fan crawled over despite his injuries.

Ye Zhuxi lowered her eyes as if looking at something disgusting, and kicked her hand away.

Ye Fan knew that, given Ye Zhuxi's personality, if he repeatedly compromised, she would only become more unreasonable.

She quickly stood up, raised her hand, and grabbed Ye Zhuxi's neck tightly, applying force with her grip.

Ye Zhuxi didn't expect her to resist and was almost unable to breathe from being choked.

"Make them release my daughter right now, or I'll strangle you!"

Feeling the grip on her neck tightening, Ye Zhuxi fearfully commanded, "Let...let her go."

After being put down, Miao Miao forced back her tears and ran to Ye Fan's side.

Ye Zhuxi was focused on her daughter, but when she wasn't paying attention, a guard kicked her in the stomach, sending her flying.

Ye Fan was kicked into the rain, rolled several times, and his head slammed hard against the stone steps.

A sharp pain shot through her, and instantly a flood of images flashed through her mind: her and Fu Yizhou, playing in the snow, being chased, falling off a cliff, and finally, pledging their lives to each other in a cave…

The version of herself in the story actually liked Fu Yizhou so much.

Ye Fan got up and then spat out a mouthful of black blood. A black worm was wriggling in the blood and then slowly melted away.

When Fu Jingyuan ran over and saw that Ye Fan was injured, he stopped pretending and ran towards her with all his might.

"Joruo!"

Fu Jingyuan picked her up and raised his hand to wipe the blood from her mouth, but no matter how he wiped, the blood kept flowing out.

Ye Fan looked up at the man's flustered expression and gave a weak smile.

"Fu Jingyuan, I... I remember!"
