Yesterday at the dinner table, Ye Lingfeng saw Xiaoxi and Fifth Brother talking quietly. Now, the same scene has been added with the addition of the eldest brother. Judging from the tone, he must be talking about him.
He was very curious: Could they be saying bad things about me? Or are they plotting something about me, or up to some wicked scheme?
The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt.
But because his parents were talking to him, he couldn't find the time to investigate.
It was Liang Wanyi who noticed that Ye Lingfeng kept glancing at Xiaoxi and the others.
"Fengfeng, you don't need to keep talking to us. After what happened just now, I'm a little tired. Your dad and I are going back to our room to rest. You can go and catch up with your brothers."
Then Ye Lingfeng went to find Xiao Nai.
"Xiao Nai, look what Ye Xiaoxi, my eldest brother, and my fifth brother are discussing. Is it related to me? Can you hear what they're saying?"
Xiao Nai sighed and looked at Ye Lingfeng with strong disapproval.
"You're wrong to say you're not going to rise to prominence. This morning, your parents, brother, and Xiaoxi were all so protective of you."
They truly treat you like their own brother, so why are you always suspicious? Can't you see that their feelings are genuine?
Even if I had the ability to know what they were saying, I wouldn't do it.
If you want to know something, just ask away.
Ye Lingfeng blushed instantly; Xiao Nai meant that he wasn't being honest enough.
Yes, if you want to know something, just ask them. If they want to tell you, they definitely will. If it's a lie, you won't find out even if you try, and they will cover it up.
So Xiaoxi and her two siblings walked straight over to Ye Lingfeng.
"Hey, Ye Lingfeng, we were just about to have a chat with you! You seem to sense our kinship, or perhaps you're secretly wondering what kind of mischief we're up to now?"
Ye Lingfeng was extremely embarrassed when he heard his little sister say that. Xiao Xi had indeed expressed part of his thoughts.
Fifth Brother Ye Xingxian said, "Xiao Xi, why are you teasing him? Let's get down to business."
Xiao Xi stuck out her tongue and immediately stopped arguing. Since she and her older brother had a conflict with Ye Lingfeng anyway, she might as well leave it to a third party, and her fifth brother could talk to Ye Lingfeng.
So she shrugged and sat down to the side, just eating snacks.
Ye Xingxian spoke up, "Eighth Brother, we have indeed been talking about you, and I have also learned about your situation from Eldest Brother and Xiaoxi."
"oh."
Ye Lingfeng lowered his head. Now that his elder brother and Xiao Xi had also dragged his fifth brother into their camp, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.
"Eighth Brother, I don't expect you to open up to everyone, and what we're talking about isn't what you imagine. How about this, don't just listen to us, just watch from the sidelines."
All the other brothers had gone boating on the lake to enjoy the scenery, leaving only the four siblings on the lakeside.
Then Ye Lingfeng noticed that the surrounding scenery had changed; they were originally by the lake, but now they were under towering ancient trees.
He's been through a lot with Xiaoxi, and he's much calmer now.
Fifth Brother told him to observe from the side, so he kept quiet and watched to see what Fifth Brother and the other two were trying to say.
Fifth Brother then took out the white jade divination tube from before and shook Jiang Hao out of it.
Even in broad daylight, Jiang Hao was trembling with fear.
"Minister Ye, Major General Ye, thank you for sparing my life. I've thought it all through. From now on, I'll listen to you and do whatever you ask me to do."
