Chapter 1,694
It is a crime for an ordinary man to carry a jade without any guilt!
Ling Yu didn't have to own this piece of Qiankun Jade, but fate didn't give her a chance to choose and forced it to her.
She had regained her life. She didn't want to die, so she couldn't let others do such cruel things to her.
Ye Rong saw Ling Yu's angry look and thought about what the old man had said to her in secret before leaving, and she half believed it.
He was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.
As Eunuch Mo said, Ye Rong does not act like the orthodox people in the Ye family at all. He will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals.
But he also has his own bottom line and will not kill innocent people indiscriminately!
If Ling Yu was someone like Zhao Ruirui, Ye Rong would not frown even if he heard that such cruel methods were needed to take out the Qiankun Jade.
But Ye Rong had been in the imperial capital for a few days and had gotten to know Ling Yu somewhat. How could he let Ling Yu die like this?
The most important thing is that Ling Yu has such a pair of familiar and kind eyes!
There was another thing that troubled Ye Rong, which was also the main reason why he agreed to the old man to go to Western Qin to find Ling Yu.
His biological mother!
Ye Rong's current mother is the wife of his father Ming Yuan.
Ye Rong's biological mother was a concubine, and when Ye Rong was three years old, she was imprisoned for making a big mistake and was kicked out of the Ye family.
As long as Ling Yu is brought back this time, the old man promises that Ye Rong will personally come forward to save Ye Rong's biological mother.
Ye Rong no longer remembers what his biological mother looks like, but if you don't repay the kindness of giving birth, what's the difference between that and an animal!
In addition, Ye Rong already knew that his biological mother had been imprisoned in a water prison. In order to prevent her from continuing to suffer, he should save her out of both emotion and reason.
"Ling Yu, I don't know if what you said is the truth, but regardless of whether it is the truth or not, I have sworn to take you back!"
Ye Rong hardened his heart and swore: "As long as you go back and pay errands with me, I will risk my life to protect your life and I promise not to let them do such cruel things to you!"
Ling Yu looked at Ye Rong with some disappointment. After explaining the consequences clearly to him, he still insisted on going back with him. Did he not take his own life seriously?
"Is your guarantee reliable?"
Ling Yu mockingly said, "Can you resist your old man's order?"
"Can you fight against the entire Ye family?"
Ye Rong's expression changed. What Ling Yu said was true. If Ye Jia insisted on taking out the Qiankun Jade from Ling Yu's body, he would not be able to save Ling Yu even if he risked his life.
But Ye Rong also knew that this was his last chance to save his mother!
If he can't complete the task, the Ye family will no longer be able to accommodate him!
For a moment, Ye Rong suddenly regretted why he had lived in such a muddle before. If he had known that one day he would face such a choice, he should have worked hard to become a supreme powerhouse.
It’s not like now that I can’t save my birth mother and I can’t protect the people I want to protect!
Ling Yu watched Ye Rong's expression change unpredictably. The look of despair and pain appeared on her face, which made Ling Yu feel distressed.
"Brother Rong, are you in any trouble?"
"Did Yejia use someone or something to force you to take me back?"
Although Ling Yu doesn't know Ye Rong very well, the short time they got together last night made her feel that Ye Rong is not the kind of crazy person who wants to die by himself. He doesn't look like this because he is in pain because he can't complete the task!
But the pain of having to do something!
