The matchmaker was so frightened by Yun Xiao's voice and eyes that she took several steps back. Qing Yu, who was standing next to her, was also frightened by Yun Xiao's appearance and her eyes turned red. She tightly grabbed her aunt's sleeve and dared not speak.
Because the two people were standing in a position that blocked Han Yiyi's view, Han Yiyi only heard Yun Xiao's somewhat deep and angry voice, but did not see his cold and icy eyes.
Naturally, Yun Xiao didn't want her to see it, so the moment the matchmaker stepped back, he concealed the coldness and iciness in his eyes.
At this moment, the matchmaker Qing dared not speak to Yun Xiao anymore. Even Qing Yu put away her previous impetuous nature and tugged at her aunt's sleeve, not daring to speak recklessly. She never imagined that such a handsome young man would have such a terrifying gaze.
But we can't let this trip be in vain, so the matchmaker glanced at Han Yiyi's courtyard again, then turned her gaze back to Han Yiyi, twitched the corners of her mouth, and said with a smile.
“Madam Han, although my younger brother is a few years older than you, he is more considerate of others as he gets older. How about this, I will have my younger brother come to propose marriage tomorrow, so that he can help you take care of the child sooner, and you can also…”
"Thank you, but I don't need it. We have other things to do, so please leave quickly..." The voice clearly showed impatience.
The matchmaker's expression turned somewhat unpleasant as the two repeatedly tried to drive them away.
She's a well-known matchmaker in the surrounding area; everyone treats her with utmost respect.
Now, being yelled at by this noble young master from Kyoto is one thing, but even this divorced woman in front of her dares to give her attitude. So, as soon as Han Yiyi finished speaking, she heard her snort coldly.
"Hmph, Madam Han, do you think my brother is too old? I'm not trying to be mean, Madam Han, but do you still think you're a young girl? You're a divorced woman from the Fan family. Someone like you, do you really think you can find a young and handsome young man? If it weren't for the fact that I thought you still had some looks, I would kindly let you be my brother's second wife. Don't forget your place. In a couple of years, when you've lost your looks, you probably won't even be able to be a second wife..."
At this moment, Han Yiyi was already looking for a broom. It would be a waste to say another word to someone like that. But before she could find it, she heard the person opposite her scream.
"ah……".
Before the matchmaker could finish speaking, she felt a sharp pain in her mouth. When she touched it, she found her hand covered in blood.
It turned out that Yun Xiao had picked up a pebble from the ground and hit him directly in the mouth.
The eldest son of the Yun family is always on the go, so how could he not have some martial arts skills? However, his skills are no match for those of Nangong Yuan, but they are more than enough to protect himself and deal with this kind of shrew.
The matchmaker looked at the blood on her hands, not yet realizing what had happened, when she heard Yun Xiao's cold voice again.
"If I say another word to you, you'll lose your tongue. And if you ever dare to mess with Yi Yi again, I'll cut your tongue off and feed it to the dogs..."
Then he pulled Han Yiyi, who was standing next to him, to his side and put his arm around her shoulder.
However, when he looked at the two people opposite him again, a hint of killing intent flashed across his eyes.
When Qingmei and Qingyu saw the murderous intent in his eyes, they were so frightened that they knelt down on the ground. Seeing Yun Xiao embracing Han Yiyi, they understood everything. They just couldn't understand why the owner of a dignified restaurant would take a fancy to a discarded woman.
However, this was not the time for her to think about this issue. She quickly pulled her niece aside and kowtowed to her.
At this moment, Qingyu saw the jade-like hand resting on Han Yiyi's shoulder and her eyes turned red with jealousy. While she was still in a daze, her aunt pulled her to kowtow.
However, remembering the murderous intent that flashed in Yun Xiao's eyes just now, she dared not have any other thoughts and hurriedly begged for mercy along with her aunt.
"Young master, spare my life! Young master, spare my life..."
Looking at the two of them, Yun Xiao's eyes were full of disgust, and he spoke coldly.
"roll……".
Upon hearing Yun Xiao's words, Qing the matchmaker felt as if she had been granted a pardon and quickly pulled Qing Yu away.
Han Yi was furious when she saw the two of them scrambling around. They were such cowards who bullied the weak and feared the strong. She thought to herself, if Yun Xiao hadn't been here and she was afraid that her stun gun would have been exposed, she would have definitely given that old hag a good beating.
Turning her head, she saw the hand still on her shoulder, and Han Yiyi subconsciously patted it, then turned to the side and spoke.
"Thanks..."
In her opinion, Yun Xiao did this to help her, and besides, it was just a simple pat on the shoulder, so Han Yi didn't think there was anything wrong with it.
However, Yun Xiao was still savoring the feeling of pulling the person to his side just now; for a moment, it felt as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest...
Han Yiyi turned her head and saw that the person was still standing there in a daze, so she couldn't help but call out.
"Hurry up, it's getting late, otherwise it might be dark by the time we get back..."
Even though I ran into two idiots first thing in the morning, I can't let it interfere with my business...
At this moment, Yun Xiao seemed to only come back to his senses when he heard Han Yiyi's voice. Whether he was stimulated by the matchmaker's words or was still a little excited from holding her in his arms, he turned around and called out to Han Yiyi.
"Yiyi, I, I love you...", but her voice was clearly tinged with nervousness.
Perhaps out of shyness, she didn't dare to look Han Yiyi in the eye, so when she called out, her head was slightly lowered.
After shouting, Yun Xiao didn't hear a response from the other side for a long time. He mustered up his courage and looked up. Well, there was a big boy and two little boys staring at him with expressions of utter disbelief.
In that instant, the air seemed to freeze, and only the sound of one's own heartbeat echoed in one's ears.
"Heh! Heh! Heh! Well, I was just kidding. My mood was ruined all morning by those two idiots who came out of nowhere, so I was just making a joke to lighten the mood..."
To hide his embarrassment, Yun Xiao forced a smile and spoke, but a sense of disappointment crept into his heart. He could see that Han Yiyi's eyes had only shown astonishment, not a trace of the shyness or joy he had hoped to see.
"Alright, stop dawdling. If we don't leave now, it'll be dark by the time we get back..."
Hearing Han Yiyi's words, Yun Xiao couldn't help but complain in his heart. This woman is really something. How can she be so clueless about romance? He, a gentleman as refined as jade, has expressed his feelings to her, and this is how she reacts.
Perhaps I confessed at the wrong time. I jogged after him, already planning in my mind that I must find a better opportunity next time...
