Ex-Husband Wants To Marry Again - Chap 57
But Ye Yunping would never admit it.
He knew that Ye Linghan had no intention of divorcing Ji Ran, only of forcing Ji Ran to leave on her own.
“Ahan is my son, and I know him very well. He wouldn’t do something so disgraceful. You know better than I do what means you used to bind him. I won’t allow someone like you to stay in the Ye family.”
“Then, Mr. Ye, could you please call the Civil Affairs Bureau and cancel the marriage between me and Ye Linghan? I’m willing to divorce.” Ji Ran said calmly, her face serene.
Ye Yunping was caught off guard and his face turned red and white, looking extremely unattractive.
Duan Yizhen and Gan Rui came downstairs and saw the scene of the two people confronting each other.
Duan Yizhen had just hung up the phone with Gan Rui’s mother and explained the situation, feeling irritated and upset, and when she saw Ji Ran, she couldn’t help but become angry.
She rushed over and slapped Ji Ran in the face. “You conniving bastard, you used tricks as soon as you walked in. Do you think you can become the Lady of the Ye Family if this matter gets out? Let me tell you, you don’t have a chance.”
Duan Yizhen used a lot of force in this slap, leaving five finger marks on Ji Ran’s face. He squinted his eyes slightly, and a terrifying light appeared in his eyes. “I never thought of entering your house.”
“You dare to talk back!” Duan Yizhen raised her hand to hit her again, but Ji Ran grabbed her wrist and pushed her.
Duan Yizhen stumbled and bumped into Gan Rui behind her.
Gan Rui was knocked backwards, and Duan Yizhen was frightened and turned pale. “Ah!” she exclaimed.
Fortunately, the servants were quick to catch Gan Rui, but despite this, Duan Yizhen was still frightened and turned pale.
As soon as she steadied herself, she rushed to Gan Rui and anxiously asked, “Xiao Rui, are you okay? Where did you hit?”
“Aunt, I’m fine!” Gan Rui shook her head at Duan Yizhen.
Duanyizhen turned around and glared fiercely at Jiran, saying in a stern voice, “You wicked person, you actually wanted to get rid of the baby in Xiao Rui’s belly.”
Jiran found it ridiculous. He was just fighting back normally. Was it necessary to frame him with a crime?
“You hit me, am I not allowed to fight back?” he retorted.
“This is outrageous! It’s really outrageous!” Duanyizhen was so angry that she trembled all over.
Gan Rui held her hand and comforted her, “Auntie, don’t be angry! I think Jiran didn’t mean it. And as for the news, he probably just wanted his family to acknowledge his identity, so he impulsively revealed this matter.”
“Xiao Rui! You’re too naive and kind-hearted. He almost killed your baby just now, and you’re still speaking up for him.”
Duanyizhen’s face changed rapidly. She smiled at Gan Rui and immediately turned ruthless when she looked at Jiran. “This kind of behind-the-scenes thing should be properly dealt with, to let him know that there are laws in the country and rules in the family!”
In the spacious living room, Jiran was kneeling on the floor.
Two servants stood behind him, holding sticks and brutally beating his back.
Jiran’s back was covered in blood, and his white shirt was soaked with it.
With each strike of the stick, blood splattered onto the floor.
Yeyunping and Duanyizhen sat on the sofa, watching this scene with peace of mind.
“Uncle, aunt, I think we should forget about this matter,” Gan Rui insincerely pleaded. “Jiran didn’t mean to do it.”
“Xiao Rui, don’t worry about this. Go upstairs and rest. You’re carrying a child now, and you can’t watch these bloody scenes.”
Duan Yizhen personally escorted Gan Rui back to his room.
After returning downstairs, he commanded the servants to continue beating.
Ji Ran’s back was very straight, like an unyielding poplar tree.
The beating was very painful, causing every part of his body to shake and his breathing to become difficult. His fists were clenched tightly, and veins bulged on his forehead as he tried to endure the intense pain.
Ji Ran didn’t utter a word of plea for mercy; he wouldn’t bow down in front of the Ye family.
This made Ye Yunping somewhat uneasy. He felt that Ji Ran’s existence would be a potential threat in the future.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he wanted to make Ji Ran learn his lesson and leave Ye Linghan as soon as possible.
After the beating, Ye Yunping ordered Ji Ran to be locked up in the wine cellar.
The cellar was dark and cold, with a very low temperature.
After being thrown in, Ji Ran leaned against a wooden barrel filled with red wine, feeling cold all over. His back wounds had not been treated, and although the bleeding had stopped, they were particularly painful.
Any slight movement would cause the wounds to pull, so Ji Ran found a place to lie down and gradually became very dizzy.”
Suddenly feeling hot and cold, it didn’t take long for him to develop a fever.
No one paid attention to him or brought him food and water.
The whole day, Jiran didn’t eat anything. He was delirious with fever and had no idea what day or night it was.
Many times, he had hallucinations and saw many beautiful things.
But every time he reached out to touch them, they shattered before his eyes.
Occasionally, when he was lucid, Jiran looked at the dark wine cellar and couldn’t help but wonder: Will I die here?
The plane landed at the airport in H country, and Ye Linghan immediately took out his phone to call Jiran.
But Jiran didn’t answer!
Ye Linghan frowned, his face particularly unsightly.
He walked out of the airport and got into the car. On the way to the hotel, Ye Linghan kept dialing Jiran’s phone, but there was no answer.
Not answering his phone was asking for trouble!
Ye Linghan returned to the hotel with a dark face and called Gan Rui.
“Mr. Ye!”
Gan Rui’s gentle voice came through the phone.
“Where is Jiran? Let him answer the phone!”
Hearing Ye Linghan’s words clearly, Gan Rui’s smile couldn’t hold up.
He checked the time, and Ye Linghan’s plane had just landed.
He called Jiran as soon as he got off the plane, and when he couldn’t get through, he actually called his phone.”
