Chapter 1076 (Daring to Deceive Me!)
"Sister-in-law..." Yi Yi still wanted to ask when she could see Ye Ye.
"Yi Yi... Yi Yi..." A familiar voice echoed, and Yi Yi immediately looked at the mirror in her hand. Inside, Ye Juetian's handsome face appeared, truly striking.
"Ye Ye... Ye Ye... Is it really you?" Yi Yi became excited in an instant, tightly holding the delicate, bean-sized tears streaming down her cheeks. Three days without seeing each other felt like an eternity.
"Yeah, it's me. Yi Yi, how have you been these past few days?" Ye Juetian was also quite emotional now, wishing to break through this barrier and rush to Yi Yi's side, embracing her to protect her.
"Good, Ye Ye, are you still busy? Am I disturbing you?"
Hearing Yi Yi's guilty tone, Ye Juetian felt uncomfortable.
"No, you're not disturbing me."
"That's good. I heard people say that those living in the palace are very busy, dealing with many important matters."
"Silly girl, don't cry. It's me who's bothering you." Ye Juetian said with a smile in his voice, enjoying the happiness of their conversation.
"No, Ye Ye, you didn't bother me." Yi Yi spoke seriously, but her earnestness touched Ye Juetian deeply.
That night, the two of them kept chatting, even discussing their future, feeling happy and looking forward to what lay ahead.
However, in Ye Hua's bedroom, he pretended to know nothing. He opened his arms, and his three charming wives were on the side, assisting him in undressing.
"Yuqing, where did you just go?" Ye Hua asked casually.
Qian Yuqing was startled internally but quickly calmed down. She softly smiled and said, "I went to see Little Tian and then prepared some food for your breakfast tomorrow."
"You've worked hard." Ye Hua rarely showed a hint of a smile, but it wasn't a genuine one.
But Qian Yuqing didn't know. It was the first time deceiving Ye Hua, and she was nervous. Would Ye Hua discover her antics?
After undressing, Ye Hua lay on the large bed, with his three wives as beautiful as celestial maidens lying beside him. He pulled Qian Yuqing into his embrace, and his big hands were not idle, 'daring to deceive me, all three of you are bold!'
"Yuqing," Ye Hua softly called.
Qian Yuqing's fair skin turned red.
"Ye Hua..." Qian Yuqing couldn't help but tremble.
"How did Little Tian react today?" Ye Hua asked calmly.
With this question, Qian Yuqing shivered, tightly holding Ye Hua's arm.
After a long time, Qian Yuqing spoke in a low voice, "He's much better than before."
"That's good. I'll ask again tomorrow. Sleep now." Ye Hua said softly.
Qian Yuqing felt annoyed. 'Why hasn't he touched me yet?' He's done everything else, just that final touch is missing.
Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi felt something was amiss. After all, being an old couple for so many years, they could still grasp a bit of Ye Hua's thoughts.
The next morning, Ye Juetian stretched lazily, in a good mood, feeling that his relationship with Yi Yi was getting better.
This silly woman could really make people happy.
However, at this moment, Ye Juetian heard his big brother's voice in his mind.
"Come over and have breakfast with mother."
Ye Juetian was stunned, quickly responding. He saw that the barrier outside had disappeared. Did big brother intend to let him go? This was truly great!
At this moment, Ye Juetian wished to run out and embrace Yi Yi, but reason told him he couldn't do that. If he did, he would surely anger both his mother and big brother, putting Yi Yi in danger.
Suppressing his impulsive heart, Ye Juetian went to his mother's chamber.
Ye Juetian walked in and respectfully greeted, "Mother, big brother, sister-in-law."
"Little Tian, take a seat." Le Jing spoke gently.
"Sure." Ye Juetian sat beside Le Jing, sneakily glancing at big brother. His face looked normal, finally easing Ye Juetian's tension.
Then he sneaked a look at sister-in-law, seemingly asking what was happening today. Did big brother lose his mind?
Qian Yuqing didn't say anything, but warned Ye Juetian with her eyes not to speak recklessly.
Something felt off today.
At this moment, Le Jing was eating dumplings made by Gorefiend, dipping them in soy sauce, and they tasted delicious.
"Little Tian, how's your reflection these days?" Le Jing asked.
Putting down his chopsticks, Ye Juetian earnestly replied, "I've figured it out. Big brother and mother are doing this for my own good. So, I'll follow the arrangements and won't think about anything else."
Le Jing was very satisfied with this promise, and Ye Hua nodded.
Qian Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief. Consider yourself clever, knowing to advance when you should retreat. This was the only way to protect Yi Yi.
At this moment, Ye Hua asked calmly, "Little Tian, are you saying you don't like that girl anymore?"
"Big brother, I just had a moment of impulse, a fleeting enthusiasm. After it passes, everything will be fine." Ye Juetian said seriously.
Ye Hua looked very pleased. "Little Tian, you can say that. Big brother is very happy. In a few days, there should be news. By then, you can choose freely. Spend some time together, and once the family is established, you can go out and conquer the world with your big brother!"
"Yeah, big brother, I understand." Ye Juetian patted his chest, but he was thinking differently inside.
He could express dissatisfaction later, that was the only way.
After the meal, Ye Juetian obediently returned to his chamber. He found the barrier was indeed gone. Did this mean... he could secretly go out?
'No, no. Big brother was full of tricks, likely to be secretly monitoring!'
'Cannot go out. Now is a critical time, absolutely cannot drop the ball.'
'For now, we'll continue using this mirror to chat and figure out a plan later.'
Five days passed quickly. During these days, Ye Juetian behaved very obediently and didn't step out of the imperial palace.
They only used the mirror to communicate, seemingly having endless topics to discuss. The bond between them seemed to be deepening, and both longed to see each other.
One night, they were chatting as usual.
"Ye Ye, I'm going to sleep."
"Huh, going to bed so early?" They had talked for a very long time before, to the point where their eyes could barely stay open.
Yi Yi, with a mischievous smile, said, "Yes~ Tomorrow, I'll give you a surprise."
"A surprise? What surprise? Tell me now."
"No~"
"Hurry up and say, or I'll tease you."
"I don't want that, I don't want that. I'm going to sleep now." Yi Yi cut the connection directly.
Ye Juetian chuckled. After these days of getting to know each other, Yi Yi seemed innocent and romantic, with a touch of charming foolishness that made her even more adorable.
So, they say, when a beautiful woman acts foolish, it's cute; when an ugly woman does, she's just plain foolish.
With a satisfied smile, Yi Yi went to sleep, eagerly looking forward to tomorrow, confident that Ye Ye would be very happy.
