Touya Yaoyao

Seeing Shiratoya leave, Aiden subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. But the next moment, Shiratoya suddenly turned around, pushed Aiden aside without any politeness, and then opened the wardrobe without any politeness, ignoring Aiden's obstruction.

The wardrobe was empty; there was no Yu Yaoyao, no clothes, just a bare frame.

At that moment, Yu Yaoyao opened the door, holding a gift box in her hand. She had a beaming smile on her face and seemed very happy.

The moment Yu Yaoyao entered the room, she sensed something was wrong. She glanced at Aiden, who had his arms crossed and looked furious, and then at Bai Taoyi, who was opening the wardrobe and looked flustered. She felt that she shouldn't have come in.

Subconsciously, Yu Yaoyao took a step back awkwardly and reached for the door. But before she could close it, Bai Taoshi, having heard footsteps, closed the wardrobe door expressionlessly and left on his own.

Before leaving, he glanced at Yu Yaoyao, then at the brocade box in her hand, glared at her fiercely, and then stormed off.

Yu Yaoyao was glared at and looked completely bewildered, thinking that Bai Taoshi was seriously ill.

Just now, when she went out with Aiden, she happened to run into her older brother Ye Qihua, who was there to pick her up. So she stayed and chatted with him for a while, and even asked him to help her choose a gift.

She had finally chosen a gift, but fearing Aiden would leave first, she hurriedly ran back. Who knew that this was the scene she would witness upon her return!

What's a grown man like him doing opening a wardrobe?! Is he some kind of pervert?! Could it be that he's suddenly fallen for his senior sister and wants to surprise her?! But doesn't Bai Taoshi know that his senior sister is getting married soon?! Isn't what he's doing a bit inappropriate?!

As Yu Yaoyao was lost in her fantasies, Aiden glanced disdainfully at Bai Taoshi's almost fleeing figure, then looked at the brocade box in Yu Yaoyao's hand and asked with a curious expression:

"A gift for me?!"

Yu Yaoyao nodded obediently, then pushed the brocade box over. Aiden took the box, glanced at her, and placed it directly on the bed beside her without opening it.

Seeing her senior sister put it aside, Yu Yaoyao couldn't help but ask in surprise:

"Aren't you going to open it and take a look?!"

Aiden shook his head dismissively, then took out a box containing ring samples from his pocket, opened it himself, and took out the ring inside, asking curiously:

"Do you want to try it?!"

Although she felt something was off, Yu Yaoyao hesitated for a moment, looking at Aiden's expectant expression, before nodding and saying:

"OK"

Seeing that she agreed, Aiden didn't stand on ceremony and let Yu Yaoyao try on the ring. She started with her thumb and worked her way down to her little finger, finally settling on her ring finger. Aiden then held Yu Yaoyao's hand with the ring on it and looked at her, saying:

"It seems only the ring finger is suitable?!"

Yu Yaoyao glanced at the ring on her ring finger, opened her mouth, but said nothing.

My senior sister meant well. She was thinking to herself, perhaps she wanted to give her a gift, but she didn't realize that the ring she gave her could only be worn on the ring finger. Maybe she didn't know that only wedding rings can be worn on the ring finger?

Just then, Aiden released Yu Yaoyao's hand. Yu Yaoyao noticed that there seemed to be a ring on her ring finger as well. Just as she was about to ask, Aiden changed the subject:

"The movie's almost over, isn't it?! Aren't you coming over?!"

Distracted, Yu Yaoyao forgot her doubts and hurriedly headed towards the stage. Aiden watched her leave, subconsciously turned the ring on his hand, and smiled.

Aiden could only deceive himself. He pondered with some melancholy, wondering how long she could hold on, or whether she would become a victim of an arranged marriage like him.

Yu Yaoyao rushed over and finally arrived at the gathering place, only to see Bai Taoshi sitting far away, sulking. Liu Yuexin, far away from him, looked at the movie screen, which was nearing its end, with a look of horror. Shen Xiu and Wei Yihang looked okay, but they were holding the armrests nervously.

Apart from the sound of the movie, the only sounds in the hall were the screams of people who were trembling with fear. Yu Yaoyao glanced at the trembling people and inexplicably felt that she had done a pretty good job, at least she hadn't screamed out loud.

Bai Taoshi was still sulking when he suddenly saw the ring on Yu Yaoyao's hand, and he was completely taken aback.

If he remembered correctly, this ring was the pair of rings Aiden had bought a few days ago. Now it was brazenly appearing on Yu Yaoyao's hand, on her ring finger no less. What was this stupid woman trying to do?!

Or rather, what exactly is Aiden trying to do?! Giving someone a pair of rings out of nowhere, and then wearing them on her ring finger—does she think she's dead?!

And Yu Yaoyao, what do you mean by this?! You like women, don't you?! And you just let her put it on you so casually. If you need a ring, you can just tell me, and I'll buy you a whole bunch. Is it necessary to wear a ring that someone else gave you to annoy me?! Especially since the other person is a woman?!

Bai Taoshi, his face flushed with anger, felt that if he sat down any longer, his wife might be snatched away. So, he stood up decisively and moved closer to Yu Yaoyao.

Yu Yaoyao was busy observing everyone's reactions and had no time to pay attention to him. Just then, the movie finished playing, and the originally dimly lit hall was instantly brightly lit. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the brightly lit hall, feeling as if they had returned from hell to the human world.

As the movie ended, Aiden and his group were about to leave. Therefore, before Bai Taoshi could get close to Yu Yaoyao, Aiden pulled her away first.

Even during the curtain call, Aiden deliberately held Yu Yaoyao's hand, making Yu Yaoyao stand with her, while Bai Taoshi was separated from Shen Xiu, Wei Yihang, and Liu Yuexin, becoming the last person at the very end.

Bai Taoshi knew that Aiden was doing it on purpose, deliberately keeping him away from Yu Yaoyao and deliberately preventing him from taking off the ring, but so what?! She would leave eventually, and he would have his chance to throw the ring into the sewer.

Yu Yaoyao was excited, but mostly saddened, as it was the first and last time she would stand on stage with her senior sister.

This parting is now, and I don't know when we'll meet again. And what will she look like when I do?! Although I know that parting is inevitable after a thousand miles of travel, Senior Sister, I really wish you would stay rather than let you leave.

But I know you can't stay. You have your responsibilities and ambitions, just as I can't be truly free. But I wish you all the best and hope you get what you want.

After the final bow, the movie screen retracted, and the stage curtain slowly fell, marking the end of the event. Aiden subconsciously brushed a stray hair from Yu Yaoyao's cheek and spoke earnestly and sincerely, word by word:

"Yaoyao, no matter what happens in the future, no matter what you go through, remember to be happy."

Yu Yaoyao looked at Aiden, instinctively hugged her, and said in a muffled voice:

"Senior sister, you must be happy, you must be cheerful, you must be happy every day. I will definitely come to the European region to find you."
