"What kind of big brother is this? He's a demon. Luckily, I was already incredibly good-looking back then, which is how I managed to escape his suppression. I won by sheer luck and that's how I got to my current top position."

Xiaoxi rolled her eyes.

"This eldest brother is quite terrifying. Our Ye family has so many sons. Seventh Brother, Fourth Brother, and Third Brother can do legitimate jobs. Why can't our Second Brother and Sixth Brother do what they like?"

Xiaoxi is going to follow the path of chain repair, and I also want to do what I love. So, big brother, don't interfere with me, but he can't control me anyway.

Ye Yanche laughed heartily, "So Xiaoxi is the most considerate, and understands Second Brother and Sixth Brother the best."

The three siblings decided to put aside the unpleasant things, eat and drink as they pleased, and play until they were completely satisfied before returning to the courtyard house.

It was already 3 a.m. when they got back to the courtyard house. Xiaoxi was so sleepy that the three siblings quickly went to rest.

The next day, while having breakfast, Xiaoxi realized that she had forgotten something important the night before.

"Second Brother and Sixth Brother, what made you decide to go to the antique street yesterday? You even found a painting at Zhenbaoxuan."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yanche winked at Ye Zhongnan, and Xiao Xi indeed noticed that her second brother looked very unnatural.

After a while, Ye Zhongnan finally mustered up tremendous courage.

"Xiaoxi, let's have breakfast and then go to the study to talk."

Ye Zhongnan felt quite ashamed and embarrassed to say it in front of everyone, especially his master, Old Master Ding.

Grandpa Ding didn't take it to heart; after all, they were going to go out again after breakfast to buy some gifts for relatives and friends.

This piqued Xiaoxi's curiosity, so she quickly finished her breakfast and dragged her second and sixth brothers into the study.

Upon arriving at the study, Xiaoxi looked on expectantly at her second brother, wondering what he was going to say.

Ye Zhongnan eventually spoke up.

"Xiaoxi, it's like this. I know you like antiques and artifacts, so yesterday I dragged your sixth brother along to the antique market to find a treasure for you."

But nothing seemed to suit his taste, so he reluctantly bought an antique painting, and then... well, Xiaoxi found out the rest later.

Ye Zhongnan felt quite regretful.

Xiaoxi suddenly became happy, "Wow, so my second brother is going to buy me a gift! I'm so happy!"

Xiaoxi understands. All along, she has been helping her second brother realize his dreams, and now that he has regained his true identity, her second brother truly wants to thank her, his sister, from the bottom of his heart.

Although the second brother was also very wealthy, he always felt guilty that he was not capable enough to give Xiaoxi an island like the third brother did.

He was mainly embarrassed because he couldn't buy Xiaoxi the gift she wanted, and it also caused his sixth brother to be locked in the cellar.

"Second brother, let me see that painting you bought."

Xiaoxi felt that the value of an antique painting wasn't in its price, but in the fact that her second brother doted on her; that made her very happy.

Seeing that Xiaoxi was really happy, Ye Zhongnan felt a little relieved.

“This painting was with your sixth brother. It was in the painting tube yesterday, and I was carrying it on my shoulder. Later, when your sixth brother was collecting his treasures in the stone house, he put the painting in with him.”

Ye Yanche: "Haha, I didn't even notice. Let's take out all the boxes we received yesterday and take a look. We didn't examine them carefully yesterday."

Ye Yanche had become quite adept at using the mustard seed storage ring, and with a thought, he...

A series of thumping sounds came from the study, and many boxes jumped out, stacked high, taking up most of the study's area.

While the baby certainly wants to see it, what Xiaoxi wants to see most right now is the ancient painting that her second brother gave her.

Ye Yanche quickly found the painting in the pile of boxes.

Xiaoxi unfurled the scroll and exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, isn't this 'Travelers in the Western Hills' by Wu Li, a master painter of the Qing Dynasty?"
