When Cui Yiyi saw her eldest brother appear, the tears she had been trying so hard to hold back suddenly burst out. She threw herself into Cui Xuan's arms and cried miserably, "Wow, eldest brother, eldest brother, you are finally here. She bullied me! I didn't provoke her, but she bullied me. Wow, she is so scary, so scary! Wuuwuwu..."

Everyone, "..."

Cui Xuan looked at his sister who was crying so pitifully. She had never been bullied like this before. A cold light flashed in his eyes.

"Okay, it's okay. Miss Ye is well-known for her kindness in Kyoto City. She will definitely not bother with a little kid like you." Cui Xuan comforted his sister softly without any intention of blaming her. However, his words were flattering Ye Qingyu.

If Ye Qingyu hadn't dared to drag Wuyang Houfu into this mess by taking advantage of his sister's gossip, he would have let her taste the frustration of being entangled in his words. How dare you take advantage of her sister's innocence and deceive her? Humph, it all depends on whether he agrees or not!

Ye Qingyu smiled faintly. He seemed like an acquaintance. He was indeed a well-dressed but beastly creature! No matter how good-looking he was, he couldn't hide the fact that he was a black-hearted and ruthless person!

"It's Prince Cui! Prince Cui, you are so kind! I don't even know when I got the reputation of being kind. Besides, I'm still a few months away from my coming-of-age ceremony. If I remember correctly, your sister has already reached that age, right?"

Your sister is older than me, yet you have the nerve to keep calling her a child and not argue with her. Who is the child anyway?

Ye Qingyu froze for a moment as she looked at Cui Xuan's gentle smile. "Haha, I didn't expect Miss Ye to be under the age of 15. It's my fault."

He sighed, his voice full of pity. "Yiyi has been weak since she was ill, and her temperament is simple and naive. She easily trusts others. I don't know what she heard that made her say those nonsense. It's my fault as her brother that I didn't educate her well, causing Miss Ye to suffer unwarranted injustice. In the future, I will definitely discipline her and teach her what to say and what not to say. I don't know how Miss Ye can forgive Yiyi for what happened today."

Princess Yongjia's pretty face turned pale when she heard Cui Xuan's words. Cui Xuan was saying that it was she who instigated Cui Yiyi to say such outrageous words. It was all her fault and had nothing to do with his simple and innocent sister!

Princess Yongjia gritted her teeth secretly, but did not dare to look at Cui Xuan.

Ye Qingyu looked at Cui Xuan with a smile, "Oh, Prince Cui, are you saying that Miss Cui was instigated by the Yongjia County Lord?"

Princess Yongjia and Cui Xuan both widened their eyes. They didn't expect Ye Qingyu to dare to say anything!

Princess Yongjia couldn't bear it any more than she could, but she couldn't really take the blame. Her face was pale, and she stared at Cui Xuan with a pair of watery eyes, looking pitiful and weak. "Prince Cui, how could you wrong me like this! I, I never said anything to mislead Yi Yi. I, wow, there are so many people here, is Prince Cui putting the blame on me just to clear his sister's name?"

Cui Xuan's gentle smile visibly cracked. He looked at Princess Yongjia with cold eyes, "Princess, please be careful with your words. This prince did not say that."

He turned to look at Ye Qingyu, and the look in his eyes was no longer the contempt he had before, but a look of intense scrutiny.

Just a few words had sown discord between them. This Ye Qingyu was indeed not as simple as what His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince had said.

He was careless today.

Cui Xuan bowed deeply to Ye Qingyu. "I, Cui Xuan, would like to apologize to Miss Ye on behalf of my sister. It was Yiyi who was ignorant and said things she shouldn't have said. I hope Miss Ye will be magnanimous and not take it personally against such an innocent child. Miss Ye, please feel free to ask for anything. Cui Xuan will do his best to fulfill it. I hope Miss Ye can understand the love a brother has for his sister."

Ye Qingyu saw that Cui Xuan was so willing to put aside his pride and bow to apologize to her in front of so many people. Although she knew that he was a beast, his love for Cui Yiyi was genuine.

How can you be so caring towards your own sister and treat other people’s sisters like that?

Cui Yiyi had never seen her arrogant brother being so humble to others, and it was all because of her.

She widened her almond-shaped eyes and bit her lips tightly, "Brother, the mistake was mine, I apologize, brother, get up."

Cui Yiyi wiped the tears from her face with her sleeve, pursed her lips, knelt down and bowed to Ye Qingyu to apologize, "Miss Ye, it's me, I'm ignorant, I spoke without thinking, and I didn't know how to speak. Please forgive me, it was unintentional."

The eldest son of Marquis Wuyang and the legitimate daughter of Marquis Wuyang, both of such noble status, had already paid her a solemn apology. If Ye Qingyu continued to make trouble, it would seem that it was really too much.

Ye Qingyu also knew when to stop. She had no conflicts with Cui Yiyi. If she hadn't followed Princess Yongjia and teased her, she wouldn't even recognize who she was.

Flirt with her first! She won't tolerate it!

Ye Qingyu smiled gently, "Please stand up, both of you. Now that we've talked it out, there's no need to forgive or not forgive. Miss Cui and I didn't know each other to begin with, and I was just angry just now. I felt inexplicably targeted, so I retaliated in this way. In my anger, I went a little too far. I hope Master Cui and Miss Cui will forgive me."

After Ye Qingyu finished speaking, she looked at Princess Yongjia with a smile, and her meaning was very clear. If Princess Yongjia hadn't dragged Cui Yiyi into causing trouble, she wouldn't have fought back. All the mistakes were caused by Princess Yongjia.

She is generous and doesn't care. You should resolve the issues between you two among yourselves.

Clearly sowing discord.

After hearing what Ye Qingyu said, Cui Yiyi realized that it was Princess Yongjia who suddenly led her to say bad things about Ye Qingyu, so she foolishly followed her.

She looked at Princess Yongjia angrily, "So you're using me as a pawn. Humph, I thought you were a good person, but I didn't expect you to have such evil intentions! I won't play with you anymore."

Princess Yongjia suddenly felt dizzy and was so angry that smoke was about to come out of her head.

She was the one who said all the nasty words. She was trying to lead the way, but she was stupid and got fooled. Now that something has gone wrong, everyone is putting the blame on her!

This brother and sister, both smart and stupid, are so annoying!

"Qingyu, Qingyu! Please move aside!"

At this time, an anxious voice sounded. Ye Qingyu looked over and saw Pei Xuqing anxiously squeezing in from the crowd, his face full of worry, holding a little girl of five or six years old in his hand.

Seeing Ye Qingyu standing in front of the counter calmly and nothing happened, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister Pei? Why are you here too?" Ye Qingyu looked at Pei Xuqing, who was panting with a thin layer of sweat on her forehead, and took a few steps forward to pull her to her side.
