When they were at the Lin residence, they didn't exchange many words because of the awkward atmosphere between them.
At this moment, because of this series of changes, there was a sense of shared misfortune.
The key point is that Ye Junfei also understood the implication in Fan Xilou's words: he would no longer have designs on Lin Xiuyan.
At this time, Fan Xilou had no interest in romance.
His mind was completely focused on how to seize the Zhou family's business and how to kill the Prince of Pingnan.
Ye Junfei glanced at Fan Xilou and chuckled softly.
As long as Fan Xilou can maintain a proper balance, Ye Junfei will not make things difficult for him again.
On the way back, he simply asked Lin Xiuyan, "How do you know Fan Xilou can help Father?"
Lin Xiuyan didn't hide anything from him and directly told him about how Fan Xilou had helped Zhou Chenyang and Ye Junfei do the wrong thing in her previous life.
After finishing her sentence, Lin Xiuyan said with some emotion, "When Fan Xilou lived in the Lin residence before, I already discovered that he was a very intelligent and observant person."
"He is extremely sensitive to numerology and has a very quick mind."
“He may lack some experience in doing business now, but as long as my dad is there to guide him, he will definitely be able to get the hang of it quickly.”
Ye Junfei asked unhurriedly, "Is he very smart? How does he compare to me?"
Lin Xiuyan: "..."
She was speechless. Was he jealous again?
She looked at him earnestly and said, "Your Highness is the most amazing person I have ever met in this world!"
"Not only are you exceptionally skilled in martial arts and unparalleled in wisdom, but you are also loyal and righteous!"
"The important thing is that he's also a good man who loves his wife!"
Ye Junfei asked her, "Do you really think so?"
Lin Xiuyan nodded seriously, and he chuckled and pulled her into his arms: "I never listen to what others say, I just look at what they do."
"You've praised me like this, you should at least show some appreciation, right?"
Lin Xiuyan could easily figure out what he wanted to say at this moment.
She felt that she couldn't spoil him too much in this matter, otherwise every time they were alone together in the future, all they might do was kiss.
So she said sternly, "Is Your Highness doubting my words?"
Ye Junfei looked at her, and she said in a serious tone, "I never lie. If you want to believe me, then believe me; if you don't, then forget it."
She broke free from his embrace after speaking, preparing to go out riding, but Ye Junfei pulled her back into his arms: "Are you angry?"
Lin Xiuyan turned her head and looked at him seriously, saying, "If you weren't the best one in my heart, why would I have married you?"
"So you don't need to be compared to any other man in front of me."
"Because in my heart, all the men in the world combined are not as good as you."
Ye Junfei's eyes lit up instantly. He stared at her intently, seeing her resolute gaze and the slightest hint of retreat.
A smile played on his lips as he asked her, "Will you still think about leaving me?"
Lin Xiuyan thought about it seriously and said, "The reason I thought about leaving you before was because I was afraid of you."
Now that I know you cherish me like a treasure, how could I bear to leave you?
"In the years to come, as long as you treat me the same way you did at the beginning, I will never leave you."
They had said similar things before, but never with the same solemnity as this time.
Lin Xiuyan also discovered that although Ye Junfei was exceptionally intelligent, he actually lacked a sense of security.
He doesn't care about many people, but those who can enter his heart are people he's willing to protect with his life.
Lin Xiuyan was reborn into a new life. She had given up on love, but he warmed her heart little by little and made her believe that there was still love in the world.
This tyrant, who had killed countless people in his past life, was even more lonely than she had imagined.
She was also willing to warm his heart with her own, giving him the greatest warmth she could offer in this world.
Ye Junfei hugged her tighter and whispered, "I won't give you any excuse to leave me."
Lin Xiuyan chuckled softly, reached out and hugged him, saying, "Okay."
Night was falling, and Fan Xilou was riding his horse behind the carriage.
She asked Fan Xilou, "Why do you blush whenever you see me?"
The question was too direct, and Fan Xilou didn't know how to answer it for a moment, so his face turned even redder.
Ye Qingwan laughed when she saw his expression: "I'm asking you a question, so just answer it. Why are you blushing?"
Before Fan Xilou could answer, she added, "I've heard people say that people only blush when they see someone they like."
"You blush whenever you see me, even before you say a word. Can I take that as a sign that you like me?"
Fan Xilou's face turned even redder instantly, and he hurriedly said, "No..."
"You don't like me?" Ye Qingwan looked at him and said, "I am a princess, how could you not like me?"
Fan Xilou was sweating profusely: "No..."
"Oh, so you like me then," Ye Qingwan said with a smile. "But you don't have a chance."
"A young master from the Qu family has already come to propose to me. If nothing unexpected happens, I should marry him."
This time, Fan Xilou paused for a moment and asked, "Is it the Qu family, which is known for its literary tradition?"
Ye Qingwan nodded: "Yes, you know about their family, which proves that they are quite famous."
She smiled slightly at him as she said this, and asked, "However, although their family is very famous, they are quite disgusting."
"The one who was originally engaged to their family was actually Ye Mingzhu, who is my second sister."
“But recently my brother has become more powerful and holds the position of heir apparent. They think my brother can inherit the Pingnan Prince’s Mansion, so they broke off their engagement with Ye Mingzhu and want to marry me.”
Fan Xilou frowned slightly upon hearing this: "Isn't the Qu family known for its literary tradition? They are a family that values etiquette the most. How could they do such a thing?"
Ye Qingwan smiled and said, "There has never been a shortage of people in this world who seek fame and fortune among the powerful and influential families."
"They measure many things from the perspective of self-interest, and they often resort to any means to achieve their goals."
Fan Xilou asked her, "Since you know that the Qu family's request for your hand in marriage has ulterior motives, you can completely avoid marrying into their family."
Ye Qingwan smiled and said, "But as long as I'm willing to marry into the Qu family, they will help my brother."
"With their help, and with my brother's abilities, no one can shake his position as heir apparent."
"Besides, I'm already twenty years old this year, and my face is disfigured. I'm an old maid who can't get married."
"At this time, someone is willing to marry me, which is a good thing for me, so why shouldn't I marry him?"
Her words ended with a hint of self-deprecation, which left Fan Xilou feeling extremely uncomfortable.
He asked, "Is this also the Crown Prince's intention?"
Ye Qingwan shook her head: "Brother said that those people from the Qu family are a bunch of scoundrels who are not worthy of me."
"He didn't agree to me marrying him, but it was my own choice."
