This young lady from aristocratic family probably realized that she was praising Chen Ye for his good looks and that she was too unqualified to be a love rival, so she couldn't help but blush.
Chen Ye was speechless. He glanced at her and asked, "Is there something wrong?"
"You...you..." The young lady from the aristocratic family was called Huang Ziyao, the youngest daughter of the Huang family. Being stared at by Shen Ye, she felt a little uncomfortable. After a lot of effort, she finished her words, "I just want to see what Young Master Ye's partner looks like."
Shen Ye raised his eyebrows: "What kind of partner my husband looks for is none of your business?"
Huang Ziyao: “…”
She was speechless and became even more nervous for a moment.
Shen Ye: “Get out of the way.”
Huang Ziyao was shocked by his aura and involuntarily turned sideways.
Shen Ye walked past her expressionlessly. After just two steps, he turned back and asked, "Do you have anything else to talk to me about?"
His gaze fell on Huang Ziyao's face, and his tone was very firm.
Huang Ziyao widened her eyes.
…She did have something to ask Shen Ye.
I didn't expect that Shen Ye guessed it after just two glances. It seems that the other party is really capable.
"I'm sorry, Master Shen, I wasn't questioning you just now... I just think you're too young and good-looking to be a Taoist priest... People online say you're amazing, and I thought Young Master Ye was deliberately inflating your reputation to make your status match his." She spoke somewhat incoherently. "I'm not looking down on you... I just want to know what it's like to be someone that Young Master Ye takes so seriously..."
Shen Ye interrupted her: “Do you like my husband?”
Huang Ziyao was stunned, then shook her head.
"Oh." Shen Ye was not surprised. He had already seen from her face why she stopped him. "So you are standing up for your sister?"
Huang Ziyao's expression changed.
Master Shen indeed saw that the problem lay with her sister.
She twitched the corners of her lips and whispered, "My sister just has a crush on Young Master Ye. They haven't had much interaction, and he probably doesn't even remember what she looks like... And there are so many people who have a crush on Young Master Ye, and my sister isn't the best..." At this point, she sighed softly, "But my sister is probably the most stubborn one."
Shen Ye remained silent, waiting for her to continue.
Huang Ziyao paused for a few seconds and said, "My sister fainted after receiving the invitation from the Ye family yesterday... She probably couldn't accept the news that Young Master Ye was getting married... I, I was just a little angry, so I came to bother you..."
Shen Ye raised his eyebrows: “What kind of trouble is this? I don’t even take you seriously.”
Huang Ziyao: “…”
"Your sister fainted and it has nothing to do with me and my husband! It's a good day, don't make me unhappy, otherwise I will make your Huang family disappear completely." Chen Ye snorted coldly, "It's cold and broken, I mean what I say!"
Huang Ziyao didn't dare to breathe.
She had just witnessed Shen Ye's ability, so how could she dare to cause trouble now?
"I...I actually want to ask you for help with something." She stammered.
Shen Ye glanced at her again: “Don’t hesitate, don’t you just want me to save your sister?”
Now Huang Ziyao was even more in awe of him, after all, he had calculated everything.
"Well, my sister was in a coma yesterday and hasn't woken up yet today... I'm very worried about her." Huang Ziyao said softly, "As long as you are willing to help, you can get any reward you want."
Shen Ye crossed his arms over his chest: "Why should I help my love rival?"
Huang Ziyao was stunned, and then showed a look of disappointment.
If Shen Ye was unwilling to help, she could only look for other Taoist priests, but not every Taoist priest had the real ability like Shen Ye...
"It's not that I can't help." Shen Ye changed the subject, "But you have to pay twice as much."
Just because Huang Ziyao had troubled him on a day like today, he couldn't let her off easy. Even if she was standing up for her sister, what did her sister's fainting have to do with him? Does every person who secretly loves Ye Ze and commits suicide have to be blamed on him and Ye Ze?
Hearing that he was willing to help, Huang Ziyao said excitedly: "That's great!"
As for the reward, she didn't care at all. Although their Huang family was not as wealthy as the Ye family, they had accumulated wealth for generations and were not short of money.
Chen Ye was in a good mood after seeing that he had made a deal. He took out a piece of talisman paper and gave it to Huang Ziyao, saying, "Put it under your sister's pillow. She will definitely be safe. In a couple of days, when I'm not busy here, I'll go to your house to check on the situation. If you encounter any problems in the meantime, you can come to the Ye family to find me."
He could tell from Huang Ziyao's face that her sister was destined to have this disaster, and it had nothing to do with him.
In other words, Huang Ziyao's sister fainted not because she couldn't accept Ye Ze marrying him, but for other reasons.
Besides, even if she fainted because he and Ye Ze got married, what does it have to do with him and Ye Ze?
Huang Ziyao took the talisman paper and thanked him gratefully.
Shen Ye ignored her and walked towards the bathroom.
Xu Sisi had been watching from the side for a long time. When she saw him and Huang Ziyao separate, she came over with a smile and asked, "Love rival?"
Shen Ye glanced at her: “Sister Si, wait for me to go to the bathroom first, then you can gossip, okay?”
Xu Sisi: “…”
As a result, when Chen Ye came out of the bathroom, Xu Sisi was still standing not far away waiting for him.
...The power of gossip is truly infinite.
Shen Ye had no choice but to say: "She asked me to tell her fortune."
Xu Sisi looked at him suspiciously: "Looking at her attitude just now, I thought she wanted to fight you."
"You think too much." Shen Ye said, "It's her sister who likes my man."
Xu Sisi thought thoughtfully: "Aren't you angry?"
"No, it's enough that my husband only likes me." Chen Ye shrugged, "Besides, I'm also very likable. There are even more people who have a crush on me."
Xu Sisi: “…”
Well, she doesn't even need to persuade him, he is very open-minded on his own.
"Your husband is here." Xu Sisi patted his shoulder, "You should explain to your husband how many people have a crush on you."
Shen Ye: “…”
Sister Si must have deliberately let Ye Ze hear it and set a trap for him.
Ye Ze had already walked over and looked down at him: "Secret love?"
Chen Ye felt extremely wronged, pointed at Xu Sisi and said, "She framed me!"
"Oh?" Ye Ze looked at him casually.
Shen Ye: “…”
Xu Sisi chuckled, holding the red wine glass and drifting away: "You guys chat, I won't disturb you."
Shen Ye: “…”
Ye Ze chuckled and hugged him gently: "Don't be angry, Sister Si is taking revenge on me."
"Huh?" Shen Ye didn't understand for a moment.
"Yesterday I told her chopped pepper fish head wasn't as delicious as mine, and she was still angry."
Shen Ye: “…”
Oh my god, is Sister Si such a vengeful person?
He decided to take good care of Sister Si from now on. This woman was so scary.
Ye Ze kissed the child's lips: "But...what about secret love?"
The man brought the topic back.
"..." Chen Ye hugged his waist and snorted, "It's unfair. I should be the one who is jealous."
He told her about Huang Ziyao's sister.
Ye Ze recalled and said, "I don't remember any intersection between me and the two young ladies of the Huang family."
Shen Ye had already guessed his man's reaction, and kissed him with a smile: "Good performance, I'll reward you with a kiss."
"One is not enough." Ye Ze chuckled and held him in his arms.
The two kissed for a long time before separating.
Fortunately, there were no guests outside the bathroom, so no one saw what they were doing.
After the banquet started, Grandpa Ye brought Ye Ze and Shen Ye to the stage, introduced Shen Ye to everyone, and announced the news of Ye Ze and Shen Ye's marriage in public.
In fact, the imperial capital's aristocratic families had long known Shen Ye's identity. Today was just a formality, allowing everyone to get to know Shen Ye up close. Of course, Grandpa Ye was also warning the other aristocratic families that Shen Ye was now a member of the Ye family. With the Ye family's protection, no one could bully Shen Ye.
The whole banquet went very smoothly except for the episode involving Huang Ziyao.
Mo Dashi also attended the banquet today. Ever since Chen Ye gave him the talisman paper, his cold has completely healed and he's in good spirits. He enjoys photography, a hobby he started when he was ten years old.
When Shen Ye and Ye Ze walked onto the stage, he kept pressing the shutter button, witnessing and recording the scene of the two handsome men.
When the banquet was about to end, Mo Dashi sent some nice photos to Ye Ze and Shen Ye.
Shen Ye saw himself and the man standing side by side, and he didn’t know how well matched they were… He really liked it!
He immediately found Mo Da and asked, "Do you have any other photos?"
"Yes." Mo Dashi said with a smile, "I took a lot of photos. You and the boss are a good match. I'll upload them to my computer and send them to you when I get home tonight."
Shen Ye was very happy: “Thank you.”
Mo Dashi shook his head, suddenly remembering something, and said, "I still have photos of the eldest brother when he was a child. Do you want to see them?"
He started learning photography at the age of ten, using a point-and-shoot camera at the time, but he kept all his photos very well.
Shen Ye was very interested and immediately said, "I want to see it, please send it to me."
Ye Ze was protected by purple energy, so Shen Ye couldn't see his face clearly, but Shen Ye was very curious about what the man looked like when he was a child. There were photos of him there, so how could he let them go?
The matter was settled, and Chen Ye was particularly looking forward to it. He had been captivated by Ye Ze's suit all day and had planned to drive with him as soon as he returned to his room. But then he thought of Ye Ze's childhood photos, and the temptation was even greater than driving. So after returning to his room, he didn't rush to Ye Ze, but instead stayed by the computer, waiting for Mo Dashi to send the photos.
Ye Ze: “…”
He gazed dimly at the child's back as he sat in front of the computer. He silently unbuttoned his white shirt, leaving only the last button, revealing the child's favorite chest and abdominal muscles, and then whispered, "Baby."
Shen Ye knew the man was calling him because that was what he called him when they were in bed.
But he was still thinking about the photos. Just then, Mo Dashi sent him a folder. He just nodded and continued to stare at the screen.
Ye Ze: “…”
It was the first time Ye Ze experienced the feeling of being ignored by a child, and he found it difficult to describe his feelings.
He stared at Shen Ye's back in silence for a while, then walked over, leaned over slightly and asked, "What are you looking at?"
The man's breath was hot, and it brushed into Shen Ye's ears, causing Shen Ye to tremble involuntarily.
He subconsciously turned around and met the man's ink-black eyes. There was fire burning in those eyes, as if they wanted to devour him.
Shen Ye’s waist suddenly softened.
“…”Is the man seducing him?
Shen Ye’s head was dazed, and his eyes fell on the man’s upper body.
The man's shirt was unbuttoned, and because he was slightly bent over, his chest and abdominal muscles were exposed.
Shen Ye swallowed and stood up.
...What kind of photos are they? They are not as important as driving!
They were happy all night, and Shen Ye didn't wake up until noon the next day.
Ye Ze kissed his forehead: "Grandpa asked me something, you eat breakfast first, I will be back to accompany you later."
Shen Ye agreed and waved at the man.
After breakfast, Chen Ye recalled the happiness of last night and smacked his lips. Then he remembered that he had not received all the photos last night. He quickly made a spell to relieve his fatigue and ran to the computer.
The file shows that it has been transferred successfully.
Mo Dashi sent three messages:
[Sister-in-law, I'm fine now.]
【Are you not here? 】
【……Good evening. 】
Chen Ye quickly typed a reply: [Thank you.]
Then he opened the folder, which contained subfolders named from 'Ten Years Old' to 'Twenty-Eight Years Old'.
Shen Ye opened the folder about being ten years old without hesitation.
Ten-year-old Ye Ze wore a birthday hat and celebrated his birthday with his family, smiling brightly.
Shen Ye slowly looked over and came to the page of eighteen-year-old Ye Ze.
When he clicked on the first photo, his eyes suddenly froze.
It should be a party with many people inside, and on Grandpa Ye’s left hand side, there was an old Taoist holding a whisk.
