She had just woken up and was feeling exhausted.

If there are people willing to help you out, you might as well use them.

Lin Yi, who was in the car, watched the two people walk away before he dared to stretch.

He had been cooped up in the small space of the car for several hours, and he hadn't gotten enough rest these past two days. He felt like he was about to fall apart.

Li Ming then moved his body and stretched his muscles.

Afterwards, Lin Yi asked Li Ming to take him home.

However, Jian Yixue soon regretted it.

——

Inside the castle.

As soon as the door opened, the living room was brightly lit, and some sounds could be heard.

Jian Yixue, nestled in Ye Mohan's arms, looked up and immediately wished she could run away on the spot.

In the living room, Lin's mother and Aunt Qiu were chatting, and a little girl was watching TV.

Perhaps hearing the noise at the door, they all looked over in confusion.

When Ye Ling'er saw the two people at the door, she was taken aback at first, then realized what was happening, got up and walked over, "Brother, why are you back?"

Jian Yixue quickly looked away and turned to Ye Mohan, saying, "Put me down quickly, someone is watching."

Seeing that Jian Yixue in his arms was genuinely embarrassed, and noticing Ye Ling'er approaching out of the corner of his eye, Ye Mohan said, "Okay."

Ye Mohan then looked at Ye Ling'er and asked, "Why are you still here? Why didn't you go back with Grandpa?"

Ye Ling'er was here, but Ye Mohan was unaware of it.

He had heard from his subordinates that Grandpa Zui had gone back to the old house, so he assumed that Ye Ling'er had gone back with him.

Ye Ling'er: "I want to stay here for a few days."

Sometimes she wanted to go out for a walk, but if she stayed in the old house, her grandfather would definitely ask about it, and she didn't want him to worry.

But given recent events, only by staying here can her grandfather feel at ease.

After all, what happened some time ago scared not only her grandfather but also her.

Ye Mohan frowned and said, "I'll move to your villa tomorrow, and I'll have Lin Yi arrange bodyguards to protect you."

He didn't like having too many people in his house, and he understood Ye Ling'er's concerns.

Ye Ling'er was stunned. The thought of that villa under her name, which she had never lived in, made her shudder.

"Brother, just let me stay here for a few days, I promise I won't disturb your time with your wife," Ye Ling'er said coquettishly.

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue finally took a good look at Ye Ling'er in front of her.

The girl had a pair of beautiful, bright, and clear eyes. Her jet-black hair was tied in a neat ponytail, and below her delicate nose was a small, pink cherry-like mouth. She was both playful and cute.

These in-laws have really good genes; their children are all incredibly good-looking.

Even she, a woman herself, thought Ye Ling'er was very beautiful. If she were a man, she would probably fall in love with such a lively and charming girl.

Unlike her, Ye Ling'er, although she lost her parents at a young age, still showed from her clear and transparent eyes that she had been well protected. Her eyes held the innocence and love for the world that one should have at her age.

Just as Ye Mohan was about to say something, he noticed someone tugging at his sleeve. Looking down, he saw Jian Yixue shaking her head at him.

Seeing this, he understood Jian Yixue's meaning perfectly.

His wife had already spoken, so what could he possibly object to?

Ye Mohan turned to look at Ye Ling'er and said calmly, "Okay, but remember what you said."

"Hmm?" Ye Ling'er originally thought that Ye Mohan would definitely refuse her, but she didn't expect him to agree.

I didn't react for a moment.

Ye Mohan frowned. "If you don't want to stay, go back to Grandpa's and keep him company."

"Let me think about it. Thank you, brother. I'll go keep Grandpa company, but I don't need to stay here," Ye Ling'er said with a smile.

"If you want to thank someone, thank your sister-in-law."

Ye Mohan ignored Ye Ling'er and led Jian Yixue into the living room.

Upon hearing this, Ye Ling'er, who was lagging behind, thought for a moment and understood. She quickly said loudly, "Thank you, sister-in-law!" and then followed her inside.

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue turned her head and nodded slightly to her.

Seeing Jian Yixue approaching, Aunt Qiu and Lin Ma quickly stood up, smiling kindly, "Xiaoxue, you're back."

Seeing that Aunt Qiu looked quite well, Jian Yixue knew that she must have been doing fairly well lately.

Jian Yixue nodded, let go of Ye Mohan's hand, stepped forward and pulled Aunt Qiu's hand to sit down together, "Yes, you're back. How have you been doing in the countryside lately?"

Aunt Qiu smiled broadly, glanced at Lin Ma beside her who was also grinning, and said, "It's great, Sister Lin is taking good care of me, I've even gained several pounds."

Jane Yixue was not surprised by this answer.

He smiled and said, "That's good then." Then he looked at Lin's mother and said gratefully, "Thank you for your hard work, Lin's mother."

Lin Ma smiled happily and said, "Madam, you're too kind. It's what I should do."

Then, as if remembering something, he said, "Look at my memory, Madam, are you hungry? I've made you some bamboo mushroom and chicken soup in the kitchen. You can eat it right away if you're hungry."

Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue nodded, "Okay."

She smelled the delicious aroma as soon as she entered the room, but since they were all there, she didn't rush to suggest eating.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ma chuckled and said, "Yes, Madam. I'll go prepare right away."

Then he turned around and went into the kitchen to get busy.

Ye Ling'er stepped forward and stood beside the abandoned Ye Mohan, saying with a hint of schadenfreude, "Looks like even you have limited charm, brother."

Look, he's been left out in the cold by his sister-in-law.

Looking at Jian Yixue, who was surrounded by family affection, Ye Mohan's eyes were full of doting. Hearing Ye Ling'er's words, he glanced at her unhappily and said, "I think you should go and keep Grandpa company."

Upon hearing this, Ye Ling'er immediately cowered, "It's my fault, brother. I'll leave right now."

She had already eaten, but she happened to hear the news of Ye Mohan's return, so she stayed to wait for her. Otherwise, she would have gone back to her room long ago.

At the dining table.

Ye Mohan very gentlemanly pulled out a chair for Jian Yixue, and after she was seated, he personally served her a bowl of fresh chicken soup.

"Here, have some soup to warm your stomach."

Jian Yixue accepted it with a happy expression, "Thank you."

Aunt Qiu had already eaten, but wanted to see Jian Yixue a little longer, so she sat down at the table.

Seeing this loving scene between the two, I couldn't help but shed tears of emotion.

Jian Yixue didn't notice that she was about to take a sip of soup when her nasal cavity was immediately filled with a meaty smell.

Jian Yixue immediately put down her bowl, got up, and ran to the toilet.

Ye Mohan's expression immediately changed, and he quickly followed.

Seeing this, Aunt Qiu became very worried and almost fell when she got up, but fortunately Lin Ma was there to support her.

Jian Yixue was standing in front of the sink, dry heaving.

She hadn't eaten for over twenty hours, and there was practically nothing in her stomach; she was even about to vomit bile.
