"itch!"

Li Yunyan's cheek twitched, then she continued sleeping.

Chen Que didn't kiss her again, but pressed his face against hers, feeling her steady breathing.

"Yanyan..." His voice was gentle and tender.

"Um?"

Have I ever said that I love you dearly?

"......Um."

When Li Yunyan gave birth to this child, Shen Que and Li Jingshu were waiting outside the delivery room.

These were her closest relatives. She didn't keep them waiting long and successfully gave birth to a son and a daughter again.

She had just given birth when Shen Que rushed in impatiently.

He didn't hide anything, rushing straight to Li Yunyan's bedside and grabbing her hand.

"Yanyan, how are you?"

Li Yunyan glanced at her sister, who was staring in disbelief behind him, then looked at Chen Que and said, "I'm fine! Let's check on the child first!"

Two swaddled babies were brought over, and Li Yunyan looked them over with her eyes down. The children still looked more like her.

She kissed their little faces, then said to Chen Que, "Take the children out first, I have something to say to my sister!"

She was worried that if she didn't get the answer for her sister soon, her sister would explode!

Shen knew exactly what she was going to say, and squeezed her hand. "It was all my idea! It's all my fault!"

"It's okay!" Li Yunyan comforted him, "She's my own sister, she'll understand!"

"Yes." Shen Que emphasized again, "Don't be afraid, no matter what, I'll be here for you!"

"I understand! Now you can leave!"

Shen Que, holding the two children, bowed to Li Jingshu, called out "Big Sister!", and then reluctantly went to the outer room.

Li Jingshu took a breath, sat down next to her, and calmly asked, "Would you like some ginseng soup?"

Li Yunyan burst out laughing, "Sister, you have such a good mentality!"

"What can we do? We have to take care of your health first, and then we can wait for you to answer my questions!"

This is what family is all about!

Li Yunyan felt a warmth in her heart and took Li Jingshu's hand, "Sister, I didn't tell you before because I was afraid you'd worry! Actually, Shen Fengxian and Li Mingshan, they're a couple..."

Under Li Jingshu's increasingly wide gaze, Li Yunyan recounted the whole story to her.

She concealed some things that couldn't be said, but told her everything she could know!

Li Jingshu finally lost her temper!

"Those two scumbags, Shen Fengxian and Li Mingshan! I never imagined they were such despicable people! It's too easy for them to die like this! They should have been utterly disgraced!"

"I'm so angry! They actually schemed against you like this! And they even tried to scheme against me?! How dare they!"

"Yan'er! You did the right thing! If you hadn't fought back, they would have bullied you to death and no one would have known!"

"You can know a person's face but not their heart! When Shen Fengxian came to our house to propose marriage, he acted like he couldn't live without you! He even swore a poisonous oath before the ancestral tablets! Wasn't he afraid of being struck by lightning?"

"I'm so angry! Those two bastards! I'm going to dig up their graves!"

"......"

Li Yunyan kept her lips pursed and smiled secretly as she watched her sister unleash her full power.

Her older sister is now considered one of the wealthiest merchants in Shengjing City. Not only is her family fortune growing, but her temper is also becoming increasingly outrageous.

She has the perfect mature and sophisticated aura!

Li Yunyan really liked her type! She interrupted her spellcasting with a smile, her expression gossipy: "Sister, how are things going between you and that Young Master Qin from Bincheng?"

"Cough cough!!"

Li Jingshu was so flustered by her interruption that she didn't know whether to answer her or continue scolding.

Forget it, I'll scold her slowly when she gets back!

She paused for a moment, her tone nonchalant, "Actually, it's nothing much! I don't plan to get married again! My relationship with that Mr. Qin was just a fling; we'd stay together if we liked each other, and part ways if we didn't!"

Li Yunyan's eyes lit up, "Actually, this isn't bad at all!"

Open your mind!

Li Jingshu raised an eyebrow, "Right?!"

Li Yunyan nodded frantically, "My sister is awesome!"

Their conversation was so shocking that Shen Que, standing outside, could only stare blankly, his temples throbbing.

After Li Jingshu left, Shen Que sat by Li Yunyan's bedside, holding the child, his eyes filled with resentment.

The way he looked at Li Yunyan was as if he were looking at an irresponsible, heartless man.

Li Yunyan rubbed her temples. "What are you doing?"

Chen Que's expression was both aggrieved and determined, "Yanyan, I am determined to marry you!"

ah?

You can't just play along with me!

?

You have to take responsibility for me!

"......"

Shen Que raised her eyes, her reddened eyes filled with tears, "Sister, will you marry me? I promise I'll be very obedient!"

After saying that, he brought his head close to her face, rubbing his cheek against hers like a puppy wanting to be petted.

"Sister, promise me, okay?"

It rubbed against me again.

Li Yunyan's heart fluttered as he rubbed against her, and she immediately surrendered, "Okay, okay! I promise you! I'll marry you when I have the chance!"

His dark eyes finally lit up, and he stared at her happily for a long time, seemingly smiling, but with a hint of tears in his eyes.

Feeling a pang of pity, Li Yunyan reached out and poked his cheek. "Good boy!"

He sniffed, brought his face close to her ear, and said softly and affectionately, "Sister, I love you!"

"Stop! Don't say anything yet!"

"elder sister?"

"I just had a baby, so you'd better be careful!"

"yes."
