Chapter 21 The Fake Daughter of a Prominent Family
"I want to sleep. I'm so sleepy."
Su Youran quickly raised her hands in surrender. Ye Jiuzhou angrily harassed her for a while, but finally let go of her hands and feet:
"Go to sleep! Otherwise the big bad wolf will be unable to resist eating the little white rabbit."
Su Youran smiled secretly and slowly fell asleep in his arms.
Ye Jiuzhou looked at her sleeping face and sighed silently, I don’t know when I can make you mine?
He laid his head against hers and closed his eyes as well.
When the sound of someone walking in the corridor was heard, Ye Jiuzhou woke up from his sleep instantly and opened his eyes.
The whole person is like a cheetah ready to pounce. Once he finds the enemy, he will rush up and bite off the opponent's neck without hesitation.
When he saw the surrounding environment and the girl in his arms clearly the next second, Ye Jiuzhou's tense nerves relaxed and his expression became unusually gentle.
He listened carefully to the noise outside. It should be Wu Shuxian who got up. She probably went downstairs to listen to the servants' report and might come back to check on her later.
Ye Jiuzhou patted Su Youran gently: "Of course, of course...it's time to get up."
Su Youran was sleeping soundly, and was a little annoyed by being disturbed. She nudged her head into Ye Jiuzhou's arms again, as if she thought that as long as no one could see her, others would stop calling her.
Ye Jiuzhou felt so much pity for her that he really wanted to hold her like this until the end of time.
But if he didn't call out now, and Wu Shuxian really found out that the two of them had been in the same room for such a long time, his Ranran would probably blame him.
Ye Jiuzhou pinched the back of Su Youran's neck, sometimes hard and sometimes lightly. Su Youran was annoyed by the disturbance and raised her head to scold him.
Ye Jiuzhou quickly sealed Su Youran’s mouth with his lips. This time, Su Youran really couldn’t sleep anymore. She made some noises in her mouth and her eyes were filled with anger.
Ye Jiuzhou let her go, and before she got angry, he quickly said "hush", and whispered to her like a thief:
"Aunt Wu got up and just went downstairs. If we delay any longer, she might come up."
Su Youran glanced towards the door and stood up angrily: “You did this on purpose.”
Ye Jiuzhou then sat up and hugged her from behind:
"It's unfair. I'm just afraid that if you're caught by Aunt Wu, you'll blame me."
Su Youran extended her elbow to him: “Why don’t you let go?”
Ye Jiuzhou let her go with a smile, got off the bed, carefully put her shoes on, and finally kissed her lips:
"I'll go downstairs first, you go back to your room and change your clothes, take your time, don't rush."
He listened carefully at the door for a while, and then opened the door after making sure there was no sound. Su Youran twisted Ye Jiuzhou's waist, passed under his arm, and tiptoed back to her room.
Ye Jiuzhou rubbed her waist with a smile. Her little hands looked very tender and soft to the touch, but were surprisingly strong.
By the time Su Youran simply washed her face, changed her clothes, re-braided her hair and went downstairs, Ye Jiuzhou was sitting on the sofa chatting with Wu Shuxian over a cup of tea.
Seeing her coming down, Ye Jiuzhou smiled very gently: "Are you awake? Did you sleep well?"
Su Youran rolled her eyes at him from an angle where Wu Shuxian couldn’t see. She was pretending again!
Ye Jiuzhou's eyes were full of helplessness: Isn't this just to prevent you from being exposed?
If it were up to him, he would have wanted everyone to know that they slept in the same bed and got married quickly.
Ye Jiuzhou sighed in his heart. If he didn’t know that Ranran would definitely be unhappy about this, he really wanted to do this.
Wu Shuxian waved at Su Youran:
"Why don't you answer Jiuzhou's question? How about your clothes? If you need to alter them, you should do it quickly. The banquet is only two days away."
Su Youran sat down next to Wu Shuxian:
"I slept well. My clothes didn't need to be altered. Master Fu's craftsmanship was intact. They look great."
Wu Shuxian scolded her:
"You kid, even though Master Fu doesn't make clothes himself very often now, his skills must still be there. Otherwise, I wouldn't have asked her to do it."
Ye Jiuzhou poured a glass of water and handed it to Su Youran: “You just woke up, drink some water.”
Su Youran took over and continued Wu Shuxian’s words:
"It would be great if craftsmen like Master Fu could pass on their skills well. I'm afraid that when it comes to her apprentices, their skills won't be as good as hers."
Wu Shuxian placed the snack next to her and said, "Then don't worry about it. You'll have something to wear after all."
Su Youran shook her head to express her disapproval. “That’s our culture too. We need to protect it.”
Wu Shuxian nodded at her vaguely:
"I see that you are really worried about the country and the people now."
Su Youran put down the cup, picked up a piece of dessert and said with a smile:
"I'm not that capable yet. The one who truly cares about the country and the people is sitting opposite you."
Ye Jiuzhou added water to her cup and joked with her: "Miss Su's evaluation of me is really high. I am flattered."
Su Youran ignored his antics and ate another bite of snack. Ever since she praised Ye Jiuzhou for the snacks he brought, he would buy fresh snacks for her every day.
Now the fat lady in the kitchen is probably worried about losing her job.
Thinking of this, Su Youran wanted to laugh:
"Don't bring these snacks tomorrow. Our Fatty Aunt is about to lose her job."
Ye Jiuzhou looked at the snacks and said, "I will stop bringing them when you get tired of them."
Su Youran noticed that he looked serious and didn’t seem to be joking. “No matter how delicious something is, you can’t eat it every day.”
Ye Jiuzhou moved another plate towards her:
"But I'm afraid that one day you'll want to eat it but don't have it on hand. Even if you can buy it right away, you still won't be able to eat it while you're waiting, right? I can't bear to think about it."
Wu Shuxian lowered her head and drank her tea, pretending that she heard nothing.
Su Youran glared at Ye Jiuzhou with eyes full of affection, which made half of Ye Jiuzhou's body numb.
I lamented in my heart for the umpteenth time: When can I get married?
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang. Uncle Lin went to pick it up. Without saying a word, he respectfully said to Ye Jiuzhou:
"Mr. Ye, it's your call."
Ye Jiuzhou was startled. Everyone knew that he was at the Su Mansion. Unless it was an important matter, they would generally not disturb him. They would basically wait for him to go back or go to him early in the morning to report.
He stood up and answered the phone. Su Youran only heard him say two words in a low voice: "It's me." She thought to herself:
Just listening to the sound makes it sound quite stylish.
Ye Jiuzhou listened to a few words, turned around to look at Su Youran, and replied in a deep voice:
"I'll be right back."
Even Wu Shuxian looked up worriedly. What happened?
Ye Jiuzhou hung up the phone and smiled at the two of them reassuringly:
"It's okay, there's just an urgent document that Ye You doesn't have a seal on, so I need to go back and use the seal."
"Then Jiuzhou, please go back quickly." Wu Shuxian waved her hands quickly and patted her daughter who was sitting next to her: "Go and see Jiuzhou off."
Su Youran pouted and stood up. Ye Jiuzhou put on his hat and said goodbye to Wu Shuxian:
"Then Aunt Wu, I'm leaving first. I'll come back tomorrow. Please don't find me annoying."
Wu Shuxian smiled: "How could I find you annoying? I wish you could stay here."
Ye Jiuzhou glanced at Su Youran, who glared at him. "What? Do you still want to agree? What will happen if I really move into the Su Mansion?"
Others will say that you married into the Su family!
Ye Jiuzhou didn't care what others said. He just wanted to marry into the family. What was more important was to be able to see his beloved one day and night.
But he had to consider Su Youran's thoughts, so he could only sigh and continue waiting.
Su Youran walked Ye Jiuzhou to the door. Lin Sheng had already driven the car back. He handed over the keys and quickly left.
Su Youran frowned slightly. “Is there something difficult going on?”
She didn't believe what seal was used. What kind of urgent document couldn't even be used after Ye Jiuzhou returned?
Ye Jiuzhou touched her head: "It's nothing serious..."
Seeing that Su Youran was a little unhappy, he quickly explained:
"It's really not a big deal. It's just a robbery incident. I've always suspected there was something fishy going on, and I just found out in the past two days. But that man has a close relationship with my father, and maybe the news leaked out. Before he was arrested, he called my mother for help, and now it's my mother who's looking for me."
Su Youran’s frown didn’t relax, but instead tightened. “Did he ask you to release that person? But didn’t he want to cause trouble for you?”
Ye Jiuzhou's originally slightly irritated heart was instantly healed by Su Youran's words. He couldn't help but hold her in his arms, without a single distracting thought, he just wanted to hold her quietly.
It's as if my heart is filled.
Su Youran let him hold her, wrapping her arms around his waist. Ye Jiuzhou rubbed the top of her head with his chin:
"Don't worry, you are the most important to me. No one can influence me except you."
Not even the biological mother.
Su Youran watched Ye Jiuzhou drive away, then turned around and smiled. As expected, everyone has a weak side, and as long as you seize this opportunity, it will be easy to break through someone's defenses.
Although she believed that Ye Jiuzhou's heart was already full of her, she never minded others loving her more.
Su Youran remembered what Huo Yu said to her yesterday. She went back to the living room, said hello to Wu Shuxian, and went straight to the back.
A Da was still found in the stable.
Su Youran looked at him helplessly: "Why are you here again?"
There was longing and surprise in Ah Da's eyes. Even though Su Youran came to talk to him every day, he still missed her so much.
Ah Da washed his hands and led Su Youran out:
"Miss, if you want to see me, just tell someone to come and call me. This place is dirty and you shouldn't come here."
Su Youran put her hands behind her back and looked at him, "So why do you come here every day?"
Ada moved to another position and stood upwind. Then the sky suddenly became cloudy and windy.
"I have nothing to do anyway, so I might as well help out as much as I can."
And you can also find out all kinds of information.
After a few days of observation, Ah Da discovered that Aunt Qin seemed to pay a lot of attention to the young lady. Every time the young lady came from behind, she would secretly hide and watch.
A Da didn't realize that she had any ill intentions, but why was she so concerned about the young lady?
Su Youran didn't notice Ah Da's thoughtful expression. She glanced at her shadow, which was hidden by the tall man beside her, and spoke hesitantly:
"Ada... do you know the Huo family?"
