Ye Mei shook her head and sighed. “Back then, my brother and I were taken care of by the Jin family and we lived a comfortable life. Unexpectedly, someone suddenly came looking for me and said that my biological parents were someone else. I’m actually the daughter of the Prime Minister, the Ye family. I was surprised, but they didn’t give me time to ask and took me away.” “Prime Minister Ye?” Jin Xinming shouted in surprise.

Ye Mei nodded and said, “But when I arrived, I realized that they had made a mistake. It’s just that there’s only one young master in the Ye family who’s crippled, so they insisted that I be the daughter of the Ye family. I originally thought that it was not a big deal, but who knew that Prime Minister Ye was actually a beastly person? He… he wanted to use me as a bargaining chip in his official career and use my marriage to rope in others!”

Jin Xinming’s heart broke when he saw her crying. Jin Xinming said angrily, “How can he do this! You’re not his daughter. How dare he try to use your marriage? Damn it! Let’s go and report it to the government!”

“It’s useless.” Ye Mei shook her head. “The officials will protect each other. Moreover, Ye Maocai has the power to do whatever he wants in Long Ye. I once wanted to write a letter to Qinzhou to ask for your help, but I was stopped. Actually, my brother and I have already been grounded by the Ye family. It’s rare for us to go out like this today.”

Jin Xinming was so angry that his expression was extremely ferocious. He had always liked Ye Mei. Back then, after Ye Mei and her brother disappeared,

Master Jin said that they escaped because Ye Mei did not want to marry Jin Xinming. Jin Xinming was a little angry. Now that his beloved girl was crying, how could he be angry? He was even angry with himself for not appearing early enough to save Ye Mei.

Ye Mei looked up and said, “Brother Jin, I’ve been missing you all the time. I only hope that one day, I can regain my freedom. Brother Jin, can you help

Jin Xinming nodded repeatedly. “Yes. What can I do?”

“Brother Jin, I don’t want anything else now. I just want you to help me leave the Ye family.” Ye Mei smiled with tears in her eyes and said, “If I can be with Brother Jin, I won’t have to be afraid every day.”

Jin Xinming’s heart was beating fast. It had to be known that in the past, although Ye Mei treated him very gently, it was different from now. She had never made it clear in the past, and her attitude was unclear. However, her words now clearly showed that Ye Mei treated him as a very important person.

Although he was wild with joy, he did not lose his rationality. The Ye family was not someone like him could offend. He said, “This… the Ye family is very difficult to deal with.

Ye Mei did not speak and only looked at him with her beautiful eyes. Jin Xinming’s heart skipped a beat and he said, “There’s a way. Mei, do you know why I came to Long Ye?”

Ye Mei shook her head.

Jin Xinming said proudly, “I have a friend who’s also a merchant. Last year, he went to Ming Qi. I heard that this year, he has established a relationship with the royal merchants in Ming Qi. He might even be able to get an official position. I thought about it. Instead of being an ordinary merchant in Qinzhou for the rest of my life, I might as well go out and make a name for myself. That friend invited me to go with him. I came to Long Ye to discuss this with that friend of mine..
