As for Madam Xiao, she was already beaming with joy.

She stayed with those women the whole time and didn't leave, talking about Xiao Ran and Ye Haitao the entire time.

Seeing the overwhelming online publicity, the women in the family showered their young mistress Xiao Ran with compliments, praising her to the skies.

They even started discussing when the eldest daughter would get married, how the Xiao family should prepare, and what the dowry should be...

Every word he said touched Mrs. Xiao's heart, making her extremely happy.

Of course, the women didn't forget to praise Madam Xiao: "Only our lady could give birth to such an outstanding daughter!"

"Of course! Don't you know who our lady is? Back in her youth, she was the most beautiful woman in the entire capital!"

"It's truly a blessing from heaven that the Xiao family has such a young lady as Xiao Ran!"

No, it's because our ancestors had foresight, finding such an outstanding person as Madam, that we have such an exceptional Miss Xiao!

"I can already imagine how the Xiao family will flourish and regain its former glory once our eldest daughter marries into the Ye family..."

Flattery and sycophancy rose and fell in waves.

These women weren't just flattering Madam Xiao to please her; they were speaking from the heart.

After all, they are women of the Xiao family, and they hope the Xiao family will get better and better.

What they feared most was the decline of the Xiao family. Once the Xiao family fell, they and their descendants would be finished.

As for the other major powers and families, they were quickly shocked by the news.

Faced with the overwhelming publicity, everyone felt that this matter had a sinister undertone, and they all frowned.

To be honest, no family or power is not jealous of the three great families, and no one doesn't hope that the three great families will collapse and resources will be redistributed.

Now that the Xiao family is finally showing signs of decline, what many families and forces want to see most is the complete downfall of the Xiao family. Some have even tacitly joined forces to suppress the Xiao family.

Only when the big tree falls can the surrounding saplings grow quickly.

Which family or power doesn't want to become a thousand-year-old aristocratic family, or not want to be among the top three aristocratic families?

Upon seeing this news, they all frowned immediately.

"Is this a marriage alliance between the Ye and Xiao families? Have the two great families joined forces?"

"With the Ye family's support, the Xiao family won't collapse anytime soon!"

"That Miss Xiao, wasn't she always interested in a young man from Ningcheng and even rejected Young Master Ye? Why is she suddenly going to marry him?"

"I've heard that this Miss Xiao is no ordinary person. It seems we can't touch the Xiao family for the time being!"

Even the covert suppression must be stopped for now. If it's discovered, the Ye and Xiao families will definitely retaliate together!

"Man proposes, God disposes. It seemed the Xiao family was about to fall, but then this happened!"

……

The fact that Ye Haitao and Xiao Ran were openly dating not only caused a stir in the Ye and Xiao families, but also stirred up a huge wave among the major families and forces in the capital.

Those who had previously looked down on the Xiao family and wanted to take advantage of the situation were now on high alert and restrained their actions.

After entering the villa, Xiao Ran and Ye Haitao smiled at each other and tossed their phones aside without turning them on.

"Honey, let's both stay home and enjoy some quality time together today!"

Ye Haitao said gently.

How come this man is getting bolder and bolder, and more and more eloquent and adept at pleasing women?

Xiao Ran's heart skipped a beat, but her face was full of shyness. She nodded gently. She clearly understood Ye Haitao's meaning: they were going to have a good date in this villa today, and maybe even take things further.

"Darling, come, let me show you around my villa!"

Seeing Xiao Ran shyly lower her head, looking completely at his mercy, Ye Haitao, despite feeling some resistance and fear towards women, couldn't help but feel a flutter in his heart.

But soon, his heart sank again.

He's not a real man at all; it's all an act to solidify his marriage with Xiao Ran, making her his nominal wife, and thus deceiving everyone.

Nevertheless, he stepped forward and hugged Xiao Ran tightly.

Xiao Ran's face turned even redder, her heart filled with anticipation. She wanted to give Ye Haitao a surprise. She was still an innocent girl who had never had intimate contact with a man before.

She had made all the preparations long ago and had been looking forward to this moment.

But just as she was filled with anticipation, Ye Haitao put his arm around her slender waist and whispered in her ear, "Darling, come, let me show you around my villa."

"Look at this living room, it's a full 200 square meters. The floor is covered with marble imported from Europe, and the decoration was specially designed by the top decoration company in Beijing..."

As he spoke, he led Xiao Ran on a tour of the living room, his tone full of pride.

After touring the living room, Ye Haitao went on to see the other rooms, becoming more and more excited as he talked, and he kept talking non-stop.

This villa covers more than ten acres, and it took one or two hours to visit all of it.

For the past hour or two, Ye Haitao had his arm around Xiao Ran's waist, but that was all. He kept talking, constantly showing off all the good things about the villa.

What's wrong with this man?

Did he invite her to his villa for a date just to show off and let her see the villa?

Or is it that he's too reserved and doesn't know how to take things to the next level?

But how did his eloquence suddenly become so good?

An hour and a half passed, and Xiao Ran was not only getting impatient, but also feeling increasingly annoyed.

She could sense that Ye Haitao had changed a lot, especially his mouth. He had become sweet and eloquent, and sweet words that he couldn't say before could now come out of his mouth effortlessly.

No matter how sweet his words were, his hands were always very measured, only resting on her waist and never crossing the line.

Keep in mind that there are only the two of them in the villa right now.

Logically speaking, like on previous dates, Ye Haitao should have been unable to restrain himself and his hands should have been restless.

But now, even though he's holding her, he always seems distant.

This man seems like a completely different person.

No matter what, we must take him down today!

As they walked, Xiao Ran yawned, leaned lazily against Ye Haitao, and whispered, "Darling, your villa is so luxurious, I really love it. But darling, I'm a little tired now, how about we rest for a while before continuing our tour?"

"Oh? Honey, are you tired?"

Ye Haitao seemed to suddenly realize something, and took a slight step back, as if trying to increase the distance between himself and Xiao Ran.

"Yes, honey, I'm really a little tired. Do you have a bedroom or a guest room? Let's rest for a bit..."

Xiao Ran rolled his eyes inwardly, but his tone became even gentler.

She had already put her mind to it, but to her surprise, Ye Haitao seemed to suddenly understand, clapped his hands and laughed, "Darling, it's all my fault. I forgot you're a girl, you must be tired after touring for so long. Come, come, I'll take you to the guest room, you can have a good rest!"

He spoke with a gentle smile on his face.
