Ye Qingyou raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of mockery on her lips.

Qianlingye smiled for a moment, his slender fingers toying with the wine cup, the jade-colored cup swirling between his fingertips.

Ye Qingyou sized up Qian Lingye, whom everyone despised and called a纨绔 (a spoiled brat).

His looks were still top-notch, after all, his mother was such a beauty.

Compared to his mother, he was more handsome and refined, not so strikingly beautiful, probably because he resembled his father.

There were still some crumbs of pastry on the corners of his lips, which added a touch of childlike innocence to his appearance.

In short, looking at him, Ye Qingyou always felt that he was a very deep person who was hiding his true nature.

As for why she hid it, she didn't know.

While Ye Qingyou was observing Qian Lingye, Qian Lingye was also observing Ye Qingyou.

Her skin, in the candlelight, shimmered like the finest pearls.

Just one glance was enough to fill my heart with tenderness.

Qian Lingye frowned immediately and looked away. Could this woman be strange, which was why he had lost his composure?

Seeing his strange expression, Ye Qingyou ignored him.

At that moment, time seemed to stand still. Just as the two of them stopped speaking, the door was pushed open from the outside.

Qianjiao was in the lead, and it was obvious that she had pushed them aside.

"sorry!"

Then came Tang Mulian's apologetic voice with her head bowed. As soon as she raised her head, she saw Qian Lingye sitting there, and tears immediately welled up in her eyes.

"Ling Ye!"

Her voice was choked with emotion, clearly indicating great surprise.

"mother!"

Qianlingye stood up and walked to Tang Mulian's side.

"You're alright, that's so good!"

Tang Mulian reached out and hugged Qian Lingye's waist, tears streaming down her face.

"Mother, today is a joyous day, please don't cry anymore!"

Qianlingye reached out and gently patted Tang Mulian's back twice.

"Yes, I won't cry, I won't cry!"

Tang Mulian quickly wiped away her tears and looked at Qian Lingye, saying softly, "You don't know, I'm crying tears of joy."

"Yes, tears of joy!"

Qianlingye didn't expose her, and just smiled.

"Big brother, are you really alright!?"

Qianjiao walked up to Qianlingye, trying to make her presence known.

My eldest brother is not only handsome, but also has both literary and martial talents.

But what I don't know is that outsiders insist on calling my elder brother a spoiled brat.

She rarely went out, but every time she did, she heard it again and again. Whenever she argued with people, she was only ridiculed.

It's said that the brother and sister in their family are both dissolute and spoiled, neither of them has a good reputation.

She cried to her older brother several times, and he always smiled and told her that it was okay, and that what others saw was only what they saw.

Do you look like something's wrong?

Qian Lingye had always doted on this younger sister, and seeing her red eyes, he pinched the tip of her nose.

"Big brother!"

Qianjiao immediately smiled, just like a little kitten.

Ye Qingyou watched and found it amusing.

She was completely enraged by Qianjiao's previous attitude towards her, and was ready to scratch her at any moment, but when facing her older brother, she was so well-behaved.

"Alright, Jiaojiao, stop bothering your older brother. Let's go out!"

Tang Mulian quickly pulled Qianjiao away.

Qianjiao was reluctantly dragged away, and as she left, she glared at Ye Qingyou.
