After she finished speaking, everyone looked at Shen Chenxi as if she were an idiot.
Before Shen Chenxi could even feel sad after speaking, she noticed everyone's gaze and asked in confusion, "What's wrong? Why are you all looking at me like that? Did I say something wrong?"
Everyone looked on with a sense of helplessness and looked away, heading to other places.
Seeing this, Zhou Yuxuan gave Shen Chenxi a kind look before leaving, gesturing towards Ye Mohan and Jian Yixue, and then slipped away.
Shen Chenxi followed the gaze and looked over. When she saw Jian Yixue, she suddenly realized what was happening.
Oh my god, it seems he's made a mistake again.
Asking my brother to talk about this in front of his sister-in-law is like pushing him into a fire pit!
What do we do now?
Can he just leave as if nothing happened?
Shen Chenxi mustered her courage and looked at Ye Mohan. Seeing that he looked slightly displeased, she immediately smiled and explained, "Second brother, I meant that fourth brother has had a tough time. I didn't mean anything else. Sister-in-law, don't overthink it. Someone is looking for me over there. I'll go over there for a bit."
They then fled without hesitation, not daring to linger for even a moment.
Seeing that everyone had left, Jian Yixue looked up at Ye Mohan and asked, "What are your feelings for Huangfu Xin'er?"
Although she knew that Ye Mohan was extremely cold to Huangfu Xin'er in her past life, she still couldn't help but ask.
Ye Mohan looked at Jian Yixue with his deep black eyes and said seriously, "She's just a younger sister. Don't overthink it. I only have feelings for you."
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue swallowed back the question she had originally intended to ask.
Since that's what they've said, it wouldn't be good for her to keep pressing the issue. Besides, he never gave up on loving her until the very end in her past life, so she believed him. She only asked him out of a woman's curiosity.
Jian Yixue smiled and nodded. "Yes, I believe you."
Seeing this, Ye Mohan smiled at Jian Yixue with a doting gaze. If it weren't for the inappropriate location, he would really like to pamper his lovely little wife in front of him.

On the other side, Huangfu Ming, who went upstairs, did not go to the room of the old master Huangfu he mentioned, but instead went to the door of Huangfu Xin'er's room.
Huangfu Ming stood at the door in deep thought for a while. Recalling what happened yesterday, he felt it was necessary to remind his sister.
Don't let her cause any embarrassment at Grandpa's birthday party; if something happens, he might not be able to protect her.
Huangfu Ming finally knocked on Huangfu Xin'er's door.
Soon a pleasant voice came from inside, "Please come in."
Huangfu Ming pushed open the door and went in, where he saw Huangfu Xin'er looking towards the door.
Huangfu Xin'er was somewhat surprised to see Huangfu Ming walk in. "Brother, what brings you here?"
Shouldn't my brother be downstairs greeting guests at this time?
"Let's see how your preparations are going."
Huangfu Ming walked over and stood in front of Huangfu Xin'er, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating.
Hearing this, Huangfu Xin'er's doubts deepened.
This is Grandpa's birthday celebration, what does she need to prepare?
The brother's words were clearly full of holes, and his expression showed that he was not paying attention.
"Is there something you need from me, brother?"
Huangfu Xin'er asked.
Upon hearing this, Huangfu Ming remained silent for a moment before looking at Huangfu Xin'er. "Xin'er, tonight is Grandpa's birthday. No matter what you see later, don't cause any trouble."
Upon hearing this, Huangfu Xin'er became even more puzzled.
What trouble could she possibly cause?
How could she possibly cause trouble at Grandpa's birthday celebration!
Just as she was racking her brains trying to figure it out, something suddenly popped into her head.
Without having time to say anything more to Huangfu Ming, she quickly put down the lipstick she was holding, turned around and ran out of the room.
Huangfu Ming had not expected Huangfu Xin'er to do this, and by the time he tried to stop her, it was too late.
With a furrowed brow, he turned and ran after Huangfu Xin'er.
After running out of the room, Huangfu Xin'er did not go downstairs immediately. Instead, she stood on the second-floor corridor, looking down at the glaring couple in the lobby, and her feelings were extremely complicated.
She said, "Why did my brother, who was perfectly fine, suddenly say those things to me?"
At the time, she didn't understand, but when she suddenly thought that Brother Mo Han would also be coming tonight, and that her brother had made a special trip over, she had a guess.
She ran out only to confirm her suspicions.
Sure enough, Brother Mo Han really brought that woman.
Mo Han didn't believe her words, but instead believed that fickle woman.
Didn't they lack an emotional foundation?
Why does she feel that what she is seeing is telling her that she is wrong?
Huangfu Xin'er shook her head violently, her eyes brimming with tears, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall.
Impossible. All of this was done by Brother Mo Han to appease Grandpa Ye.
That woman is not good enough for her brother Mo Han at all.
She is the perfect match for Brother Mo Han!
Huangfu Ming, who had been running right behind her, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Huangfu Xin'er in the corridor, then stopped and walked over.
When Huangfu Xin'er saw her looking so aggrieved, Huangfu Ming felt a pang of heartache.
Should I have never supported my sister in pursuing Ye Mohan?
He knew perfectly well that Yi Ye Mo Han treated Xin Er as a younger sister.
At the time, he saw that there was no one else around Ye Mohan, and he thought that if his sister liked him, he should go and pursue her.
If he succeeds, he can entrust his sister to Ye Mohan with peace of mind, after all, they have been good brothers for more than ten years.
He had complete confidence in Ye Mohan.
Ye Mohan had no feelings for Xin'er, and he could guess that.
To his utter surprise, in just one month, Ye Mohan actually fell in love with the arranged marriage.
He was at a loss as to how to resolve this situation.
On one side is his biological sister, and on the other is his brother of more than ten years. He is unsure how to avoid hurting either of them.
Thinking of this, Huangfu Ming couldn't help but wonder if, had he stopped her back then, his sister wouldn't be so deeply in love and suffering like this now.
But now, it's all too late.
Her sister seems to be stuck in a quagmire with no way out.
Huangfu Ming was now beside Huangfu Xin'er, and followed her gaze.
As expected, it was indeed Ye Mohan and his group.
Otherwise, his sister wouldn't have shown such pain and sadness.
Huangfu Ming turned to look at Huangfu Xin'er with a pained expression, "Alright, stop looking. There are plenty of good men in the world. I can always pick one for you."
Upon hearing this, Huangfu Xin'er, looking heartbroken, turned to Huangfu Ming and said, "But no matter how good a man is, he is not my brother Mo Han."
Upon hearing this, Huangfu Ming did not refute it, nor did he know how to refute it. He was well aware in his heart that Huangfu Xin'er was telling the truth.
But that man already had someone he loved, so how could he possibly spare any more attention for his sister?
Not to mention, Ye Mohan never had any feelings for his sister from beginning to end.
Huangfu Ming could only remain silent. He knew that saying anything more would be superfluous and would only make him seem more powerless.
