Among the three of them, only the Third Elder heaved a sigh of relief. He was genuinely happy that Ye Qingtang had returned.
However, he was also puzzled. Why did Ye Qingtang return in one piece?
The Third Elder secretly glanced at the Great Elder's expressionless face. He knew that the Great Elder would not dare to fall out with Ye Qingtang in front of her and would not kill her in the Ye Family. Otherwise, it would only hinder the Great Elder's path to the position of the Master of the Ye Family.
So close, so close. She had finally made it through this ordeal.
The few people in the hall were all preoccupied with their own emotions. For a moment, there was silence, and no one spoke.
Ye Qingtang was the most casual. She sat quietly at the side with a faint smile on her face. Although she did not say anything, just sitting there was enough to make the Great Elder uncomfortable.
"It's getting late. I'm tired from the long journey. I'm going back to my room to rest." The Great Elder did not want to look at Ye Qingtang's face anymore. He stood up with a straight face and left.
Ye Xun followed obediently.
The Third Elder's tense expression only relaxed a little after the two of them left the hall. He secretly looked around the hall to make sure that the Great Elder did not leave any spies nearby. He then hurried to Ye Qingtang's side.
"I didn't expect the Great Elder to return so suddenly. I sent people to the Si Family immediately to look for you, but they did not find you." The Third Elder's tone was a little anxious. He was afraid that Ye Qingtang would think that he had teamed up with the Great Elder and would do something to Ye Ning.
Ye Qingtang looked at the Third Elder who was trying to distance himself from her with a faint smile and nodded slightly.
She believed that the Third Elder would not joke around with Ye Ning's life.
"I had some matters to attend to and was not in the Si Family."
"Then … then did you meet with that person?" The Third Elder asked cautiously.
"Who?" Ye Qingtang raised her brows slightly.
The Third Elder deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Ye Qi. The Great Elder sent Ye Qi out the moment he returned today. I think he went to look for you."
"I didn't see him." Ye Qingtang replied calmly.
"…" The Third Elder was a little confused.
Ye Qingtang didn't see Ye Qi?
Could it be that Ye Qi did not find Ye Qingtang?
That was impossible!
"Do you think I'm Ye Qi's match?" Ye Qingtang smiled at the Third Elder's disbelief.
This question made Third Elder dumbfounded.
After thinking about it, it seemed to make sense.
If Ye Qingtang met Ye Qi, she would not be able to return.
"Now that the Great Elder is back, do you have any preparations? I'm afraid he won't let you off so easily. You have to be more careful in the future. "The Third Elder warned.
"Third Elder is really concerned about me." Ye Qingtang smiled at the Third Elder.
The corner of Third Elder's mouth twitched after hearing her retort.
Who cares about you!
If you hadn't taken my precious grandson, who would care about your life or death?
Even though he was unwilling, the Third Elder could only smile and nod his head.
"I have my ways with the Great Elder. Don't worry, Third Elder," Ye Qingtang said with a smile.
As long as there was no news of Ye Qi, the Great Elder would not dare to act rashly. She could still take a breather.
"It's good that you have an idea. If there's really no other way, you can go to the Si Family to lie low. No matter what, the Great Elder will not dare to go to the Si Family to ask for you. Otherwise, if the people in Lin Town find out about his intentions, his plan will be ruined." The Third Elder gave advice sincerely.
