"That's just like the old lady, hoping that you can find a good family! Look at the second young master, he's almost the father of two children now, and the old lady is so worried about you not making any progress."
"Don't get involved with my mother. I know everything."
Aunt Lin hummed, then walked over and said softly, "In fact, I have carefully looked at all the young people who came here today. Speaking of which, apart from the two young children in Vice President Yu's family, there is really no one who can be compared with our Second Young Master. Take Young Master Yunchuan for example. Although he is excellent, there is still some gap between him and our Second Young Master. It's a pity. I heard that Vice President Yu already has a girl he likes. As for Second Young Master Yu, he is not your age."
Bai Suye was somewhat helpless, "Don't worry about it like my mom does, it's too early for my problem!"
"Oh, right! Speaking of which, there's another one! He was brought in by Leng Fei later. I almost forgot about him."
Aunt Lin suddenly remembered something and her tone rose several decibels.
When Bai Suye heard the tone, a figure emerged in her mind.
The next moment, Aunt Lin said, "I don't know his name. But the tall one is very eye-catching. He has an extraordinary demeanor and is particularly manly. When he came in, everyone in the hall stood up. The ambassador from abroad was very respectful to him. This kind of man is definitely the type you girls would like. However, he has no hope..."
Bai Suye glanced at Aunt Lin, as if waiting for her to continue.
Originally, her tone was full of displeasure, but unexpectedly, when this person was mentioned, the eldest lady suddenly became interested, and Aunt Lin immediately became interested as well.
"When I first entered the hall to serve tea, I heard people chatting. A few people were eager to introduce their daughters to him as a girlfriend, but he rejected them all, saying that he already had a girlfriend and that he was about to get married. You see, nowadays, all the slightly better young people have girlfriends..."
Good things are coming
Bai Suye's heart trembled, and her hands shook unconsciously. The hot water spilled out and burned her hand. She came to her senses and looked down, and saw that her index finger was burned red.
"Are you okay? Quick, quick, put the water down. I told you, these things are not something you can do!"
"I'm fine."
"Rinse it quickly with cold water, and I'll give you some sugar to apply."
"No."
Bai Suye shook her head and put the kettle down, feeling a little exhausted. Her fingers felt like they were burned and hurt badly.
actually…
To her, this was really just a minor injury. If it was usual, she would not even bother to use medicine. But today... she felt a little painful for no reason.
Good things are coming...
He and Nalan
She put her finger in her mouth and said, "Aunt Lin, you go ahead and do your work. I'll go upstairs and find some ointment first."
"No more sugar?"
"Just use the medicine. I'm a little tired, so I want to go upstairs and rest for a while."
"Oh, okay, then go ahead. We'll be busy tonight, don't tire yourself out."
Aunt Lin watched her leave. When her figure disappeared in the kitchen and went to the living room, she was still looking at her back, thinking to herself, was it my illusion? I always felt that the eldest lady's mood suddenly dropped and she was lost when she heard that the man was about to get married.
That's right. It would be strange if I wasn't heartbroken if these two elders died at the same time.
… … … …
Bai Suye pinched her fingers and went upstairs.
For a long time, Aunt Lin's words "good things are coming" were all in her mind, and she felt a little confused. She closed the door and was about to turn on the light in her room - she rarely came back to live in her room, and usually when she was not there, she would not only close the windows in the room to avoid dust from entering, but also draw the curtains tightly, so that no light from outside could penetrate. She didn't like this kind of darkness, and subconsciously looked for the light switch.
However, just as I touched the light switch, before I could press my finger, my wrists were suddenly grabbed. Then, both wrists were pressed above my head.
Just from the smell of White Millet Leaf's breath, one could tell that the person coming was none other than Night Owl.
Heart, tighten.
He didn't leave
"Why are you here?" she asked in a low voice, trying her best to hide the unrest in her tone.
When exactly did he come up here? Why did he suddenly appear in her room
"Just now, were you looking for me downstairs?" Ye Xiao was only a few centimeters away from her. When he asked, his voice was low. In such a dark space without a trace of light, the voice ringing in her ears seemed particularly seductive.
Bai Suye's mind was filled with Aunt Lin's words "good things are about to happen". She tensed her body and leaned against the door, trying to stay calm and not be tempted by him again.
She nodded with a muffled voice, "I was indeed looking for you."
Ye Xiao seemed to have not expected Bai Suye to say this suddenly, and his eyes, which had been calm and peaceful, suddenly showed some bright colors.
She was always strong-willed and stubborn, and she would hardly say such words. Even in bed, when he tortured her in every way, she would never say a word to please him. Her greatest skill was to make him angry.
"Do you have something to talk to me about?" His tone was not as tough as before.
"… fine."
He raised his eyebrows and didn't say anything else, as if waiting for her to continue.
She then continued, "I just wanted to see if you had left."
Ye Xiao's usually cold and handsome face softened a lot at this moment. The corners of his lips curved up slightly, "Don't you want me to leave?"
Bai Suye took a deep breath and didn't answer. She just looked at him straight in the eyes, "What are you doing here?"
His expression suddenly turned much colder, and he snorted, "From your tone, it's not that you don't want me to leave, but that you don't want me to stay?"
“…” She did not refute, but agreed.
Ye Xiao just said it casually, but he didn't expect her to have such an attitude. His face became colder, and when he spoke again, his tone was even colder, questioning, "You spent the night with him, what's the matter?"
really…
He still listened to that sentence.
So, the reason why he came upstairs to question was because... he didn't allow anyone to covet even a dog by his side
It’s been a long time since I last spoke to him, but when I think about it now, I still feel a chill in my internal organs.
Bai Suye still didn't answer, she just moved her hand which was a little painful from his grip, "Can you let me go first? My hand was just burned and it hurts a little."
She was not as tough as before. Today, she felt somewhat powerless. She didn't even have the energy to fight him.
Night Owl seemed to be considering it for a while, then his brows relaxed and he let go of her hand. She touched the light switch and turned on the light with a click.
