Lin Shuyue snorted and said, "You think it's shameful? Then let me ask him now, and that won't be shameful anymore?"
"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. That guy's always idle at home and he's always arguing with Wang Jia. We have to find him something to do!" Lin's mother said helplessly.
Lin Shuyue looked at Ye Yun and asked softly, "What should we do?"
"Just tell him he can give it a try, but it's quite tiring work, and I'm afraid he won't be able to handle it," Ye Yun said softly.
Lin Shuyue nodded and said loudly, "It's possible, but Ye Yun's project involves building a house, which is quite tiring. Do you think Lin Jiang can handle it?"
"As long as there's work to do, it's up to him whether he can stick with it. Besides, I think Lin Jiang seems quite afraid of Ye Yun, so maybe Ye Yun can really keep him in check."
"Hmph, of course Ye Yun can control him. His way of managing people is to use force when soft methods don't work. I'm just afraid you'll feel sorry for your son then," Lin Shuyue teased.
"I don't care about him at all! I'm already fed up with this brat. I'll be thanking my lucky stars if someone can keep an eye on him and teach him a lesson. Just tell Xiaoyun to do it his way, as long as he doesn't cripple or kill him," Lin's mother said angrily.
"Oh, it's not that exaggerated. This matter... I'll take care of it. I'll talk to him about it later."
"Okay, then Mom won't bother you anymore. You should get some rest!" With that, the footsteps faded into the distance.
Lin Shuyue breathed a sigh of relief, then glared at Ye Yun with a mixture of shame and anger, and whispered, "You said I was bold, but you were even more reckless than me, and you almost got caught!"
"Hehe, you haven't been discovered yet, have you? I didn't realize you were so reliable. You can't really find any flaws," Ye Yun teased.
"Hmph, you bad guy, it's my turn to get revenge." With that, Lin Shuyue began her retaliation.
After they finished their activities, the two lay down on Lin Yarou's kang (a heated brick bed) to rest.
Smelling a fragrance different from Lin Shuyue's, Ye Yun suddenly thought of what happened at noon and asked, "Was what your mother said at noon a joke?"
"What did you say?"
"They said they wanted to set me up with Ya-rou."
Lin Shuyue sighed and said, "She's probably not joking. She's been through that, so she must be serious."
"Oh no, what should we do then?"
"What do you mean, 'what to do'? That's up to you. What do you think of my sister?"
“She’s very pretty. You’re her older sister, and you’re so pretty, she must be just as beautiful,” Ye Yun said.
"So you've taken a liking to her?" Lin Shuyue asked, displeased.
"No way, if I were attracted to someone just because they're pretty, I'd be a stud," Ye Yun retorted.
"Hmph, you think you're not?" Lin Shuyue sneered, "Su Yue, me, and that Zhang Ya, we've already had three women, fine!"
"Ah, how did you know about me and Zhang Ya..." Ye Yun looked at her in shock.
"Nonsense, you two were exchanging glances during dinner that night. And what were you doing in her room when I went there? Don't tell me you were helping her out. Judging from her flirtatious look, you two definitely weren't up to anything," Lin Shuyue analyzed.
"This..." Ye Yun was speechless for a moment, then sat up and apologized, "I'm sorry, Sister Shuyue, I admit that I was fickle. You can hit me or scold me if you want, I will definitely not fight back."
Seeing Ye Yun's sincere apology, Lin Shuyue sat up, pinched his cheek, and said, "Okay, if I'm really angry, we can talk about this again in a month. After all, you've never been in a relationship before, and Zhang Ya is really something else, she's got great qualities in every way. I bet she's the one who seduced you!"
Ye Yun nodded and said, "Although she seduced me, I was also moved. I don't want to know about her past; it's mainly her maturity and sensitivity that attracted me. A woman like that won't cause trouble or bother me."
"Oh, so it seems you really like mature women. You didn't even want Lu Xiaoqing, who was practically offering herself to you, but you ended up being won over by Zhang Ya, whom you've only known for a short time," Lin Shuyue teased.
"You're wrong. It's not that she's manipulating me, but rather that I'm manipulating her," Ye Yun said confidently.
"Really? That's good. At least I don't have to worry about her messing up our relationship or taking you away from me."
"Don't worry, I won't be manipulated by others, I'll only manipulate others." Ye Yun pinched Lin Shuyue's chin and said confidently, "Just like you, Su Yue, Zhang Ya, all three of you are manipulated by me."
"Really?" Lin Shuyue smiled playfully, grabbed it, and Ye Yun was startled.
What are you doing?
"Let's see if I can control you?"
"Oh dear, that's not what I meant, you..."

Before they knew it, it was afternoon, and the two who had wandered back from outside were resting inside.
Ye Yun checked the time; it was already past five in the afternoon. He touched his stomach, looked at Lin Shuyue, and asked, "Are you hungry?"
"I'm alright, what's wrong?" Lin Shuyue lay on the kang (a heated brick bed), swinging her long legs.
“I heard before that a self-service hot pot restaurant opened in town. You probably haven’t tried a self-service hot pot before, right? How about we go and give it a try?” Ye Yun suggested.
"All-you-can-eat hot pot!" Lin Shuyue sat up, looking at Ye Yun with curiosity, and said, "I've seen this online. Is it true that once you go in, there's no limit to what you eat, and you can eat as much as you want?"
"Hmm, would you like some?"
"Yes, I've wanted to try it for a long time." Lin Shuyue got off the kang (a heated brick bed) and excitedly sat down next to Ye Yun.
Ye Yun smiled faintly, put his arm around her waist and said, "Ya Rou should be getting off work around this time too, let's invite her along as well!"
"Okay! Wait, why are you suddenly concerned about her? You haven't actually fallen for her, have you?" Lin Shuyue asked warily.
Ye Yun flicked her forehead in annoyance and said, "I'm not the kind of horny womanizer. Your sister is alright, but she's still your sister. Besides, I'm not planning on dating right now. After all, there are three of you. Dating and marriage aren't in my plans. I might play around with a pretty older woman, but if it's a real relationship, I won't ruin someone else's life."
"Hmph, you're smart enough to know your place. I was just giving you a heads-up. Of course, I believe you're not that kind of person. But the problem is, my sister seems to really like you. I'm afraid she'll be like that girl Lu Xiaoqing and rush to send you off," Lin Shuyue said worriedly.
"What's there to be afraid of? Just keep an eye on her. If all else fails, I'll just confront her and tell her I have another woman, that'll do." Ye Yun said nonchalantly.
Lin Shuyue nodded in agreement, "That's alright. If you push me too far, I'll just lay my cards on the table. I don't believe she can compete with her sister for my man."
