Touya Yaoyao

Only after Bai Taoshi signed his name on the contract did Ye Yunshen feel as if a weight had finally been lifted from his heart.

He let out a long sigh of relief, and then his gaze towards Yu Yaoyao softened considerably as he spoke gently:

"In that case, Yaoyao, you should go and rest first. I'll talk to Taoshi about the details we need to pay attention to regarding variety shows!"

Since it was a private matter, Yu Yaoyao had no reason to stay. She obediently nodded and subconsciously turned to leave, but Bai Taoshi pulled her back and said to Ye Yunshen:

"If you need anything, you can talk on WeChat or call. My assistant or agent will communicate with you."

Caught off guard, Yu Yaoyao was nearly knocked over by Bai Taoshi's pull, but she managed to regain her balance in time, preventing herself from falling into his arms. She frowned, looking at Bai Taoshi with displeasure, and questioned him coldly:

"what?!"

Shiro Momoya smiled at her, then, looking smugly at her displeased expression, calmly said:

"I helped your third uncle so much, shouldn't you give me some reward?!"

Yu Yaoyao looked at Bai Taoshi's smiling face speechlessly, and complained in an annoyed tone:

"So what?! What are you planning to do now?!"

Seeing her disgusted expression, Shirato wasn't annoyed. Instead, he reached out and patted the top of her head, teasingly saying:

"You left without saying goodbye back then, and you still owe me a dance, so let me make it up to you today."

He spoke with absolute certainty, but Yu Yaoyao frowned. Looking at Bai Taoshi with suspicion, she couldn't help but question him:

"How come I didn't know I promised you that?!"

Shiro Touya looked at her calmly, then put his hand on her shoulder, muttering to himself with a hint of smugness and pleasure:

"Never mind that. Anyway, you have to dance with me at the prom today. I've been waiting for this for years."

Yu Yaoyao didn't want to pay attention to his unreasonable demands, but Bai Taoshi dragged her out of the house without saying a word and brought her to a secluded open space.

The bright moonlight draped the surrounding buildings in a silvery veil, making the plants here appear more ethereal. Bai Taoshi gently held Yu Yaoyao's hand in one hand and placed the other on her waist, leading her to dance gracefully in this open space.

Perhaps because of dancing, the two were very close, close enough to hear each other's breathing.

This was the first time Yu Yaoyao had been so close to a man, so much so that her expression showed a subtle mix of helplessness and panic.

Shiro Touya clearly noticed this, and couldn't help but move even closer to her, teasing her in a low voice:

"Are you blushing because you're shy?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Yaoyao couldn't help but glare at him and blurted out:

"Who's shy?! Don't talk nonsense."

When Shirato saw that she wouldn't admit it, he wanted to expose her, but in the end he held back.

He gently held her hand and led her in a graceful turn and movement under the moonlight, letting her dance the dance he had longed for under his guidance.

However, just as their dance steps came to a stop, and he released Yu Yaoyao's hand, she was pulled away and shielded behind him.

Ye Qishi was the one who pulled Yu Yaoyao. He looked at Bai Taoshi in front of him with a wary expression, his eyes full of vigilance and defensiveness, as if he was afraid that something would be coveted and taken away by someone else.

Bai Taoshi glanced at Yu Yaoyao, who was being protected by Ye Qishi, and only after seeing that she was not panicked did he casually shift his gaze to Ye Qishi's face.

Ye was actually a few years older than Shiratoya, and his temperament was more mature and composed. To be honest, Ye was quite popular with young girls, but for Shiratoya, Ye was nothing special.

Although it wasn't explicitly stated, Ye actually disliked Bai Taoyi quite a bit, especially ever since their family adopted Yaoyao, Bai Taoyi always liked to come to their house.

Not only does he run away, but he also likes to stick to Yaoyao. Even when Yaoyao tries to avoid him, he still pesters her. It's really annoying to look at him like that.

Therefore, Ye looked at Shiratoshi in an unfriendly tone and coldly warned him:

"It's getting late. If you have nothing else to do, Young Master Bai, it's best not to linger here, lest someone see you and start gossiping."

Shiratoshi subconsciously raised an eyebrow, looked at Ye Qishi without fear, chuckled, and said sarcastically:

"Uncle Ye hasn't said anything, so it's best if Young Master Ye doesn't cause any trouble. After all, the Ye family still needs the Bai family's help, doesn't it?!"

When Ye Qishi heard him bring up this matter, he subconsciously gritted his teeth. He looked at Bai Taoshi, who was arrogant in front of him, with an unfriendly expression, but didn't say anything. Instead, he pulled Yu Yaoyao away from there with a gloomy face.

As Bai Taoshi watched Yu Yaoyao being taken away, he didn't say anything, but his expression wasn't very pleasant.

Not only does Yoru dislike Touya Shirai, but Touya Shirai also doesn't have much affection for Yoru.

In his eyes, Ye had been using his status as Yu Yaoyao's adopted brother to cause him trouble. He not only deliberately kept Yu Yaoyao at a distance from him, but also liked to speak ill of him to Yu Yaoyao.

As a result, Yu Yaoyao was always lukewarm towards his advances, and even somewhat resistant, which gave him a lot of headaches.

He thought that the other party had grown up and would no longer subtly increase the difficulty of pursuing him like they did four years ago, after realizing the importance of the Bai family to the Ye family. He never expected that after so many years, the other party had not made any progress at all.

Thinking this, he subconsciously narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but clench his fist. It seemed that he had to find something for Ye Qi to do. If he had something to do, he wouldn't have time to bother Yu Yaoyao.

Ye, with a gloomy face, forcibly dragged her several meters away. Yu Yaoyao obediently remained silent. She knew that if she said another word at this moment, she would definitely be scolded, so it was better to simply pretend to be mute and say nothing.

Even so, Ye could still find fault. He looked at Yu Yaoyao's silent and cautious demeanor with disdain, snorted coldly, and said sarcastically:

"Heh, you've really grown up, all wings have hardened, huh?? You think that just because you've hooked up with Bai Taoshi, I can't control you anymore?! Yu Yaoyao, are you really so shameless, knowing full well that the Bai family is a pit of fire, you still jump in?!"

At this point, he raised his voice on his own, pointing at Yu Yaoyao with a look of exasperation and scolding:

"Don't you know what kind of people the Bai family are? How many times do I have to tell you? They're a big and powerful family, what kind of women haven't they seen?! They're only nice to you now because they think you're easy to manipulate and won't cause trouble. Everyone else avoids you like the plague, and you're already chasing after them? What?! Are you afraid they won't want you, afraid you won't be able to get married?!"
