Chapter 4

It was lunchtime, but Ye Wanmei still hadn't shown up.
You Qinyuan sat in his seat and looked at Ye Hua's calm expression.
He asked worriedly, "Meier didn't go out, did he?" Yehua Huazhichao shook his head, "Don't worry, I don't know what this girl is doing.
I don't know what she's doing."You Qinyuan looked at him suspiciously and wanted to ask something, but in the end, he gave up.Just then, Ye Wanmei smiled, "Big bro, don't slander me in front of big sis!
There's nothing that can't be told to others.
I'm just in the kitchen.""Cook?
What are you doing in the kitchen?" Yehuazhi asked with an amused expression on his face.
Ye Wanmei ignored him and walked over to You Qinyuan's side, "Big sis, all the dishes for lunch today were made by Meier alone.
In order to celebrate big sis's stay in my house, big sis, you have to eat a little more later."You Qinyuan's eyes were filled with disbelief, "Meier knows how to cook?
Big sister will definitely have a good taste of Meier's culinary skills later on." Ye Wanmei clapped his hands, and the girls brought up the plates.When the dishes were served, You Qinyuan smiled and praised, "The fragrance is already there, but I wonder how it tastes?" Ye Wanmei said proudly, "Big sis, don't worry.
I guarantee that the fragrance will be complete." You Qinyuan picked up a piece of plum blossom cake and placed it into his mouth.
Then, he smiled and nodded, "Hmm...
it tastes good.
Meier's culinary skills are actually so good."At this time, Yehua Huazhicai smiled, "This girl has been interested in cooking ever since she was young, so she's naturally proficient in culinary skills." You Qinyuan smiled, "It seems like I've been blessed with a mouthful of culinary skills in the future."Yehuazhi said, "Yuan Er, this girl doesn't cook so easily." Ye Wanmei smiled and shook his head, "That's not necessarily the case.
As long as Big Sister You likes it, I can make it for her every day!
Wait...
Big brother, what did you call Big Sister just now?" You Qinyuan was also stunned.Did he just call me Yuan Er?
Did I hear wrong?Ye Huazhi didn't seem to mind, "Yuan Er!
We're already familiar with each other, and we'll have to live under the same roof in the future.
Could it be Miss You and Miss You?" So that's how it is.
You Qinyuan felt a sense of disappointment in his heart.
Ye Wanmei looked at Ye Huazhi and then at You Qinyuan, "That's right."Big sister, don't call me Young Master and Young Master.
Just call me Big Brother...
Uh...
How about calling me Big Brother Ye?" You Qinyuan didn't know how to respond.
Big Brother Ye?
It felt so strange.Ye Huazhi opened his mouth and said, "Just call Ye Huazhi or Hua Zhi." Both You Qinyuan and Ye Wanmei were stunned, unable to react for a long time.Ye Huazhi noticed that neither of them had responded, so he smiled and asked, "What's wrong?
Why aren't you two talking?" Ye Wanmei responded, "Nothing much..." You Qinyuan lowered his head and didn't say a word as he played with his chopsticks.Actually, she didn't know what to say at all.
Hua Zhi?
Haha...
It felt like their relationship had become ambiguous.You Qinyuan found an excuse to leave early.
He returned to his room and closed the door.
She lay on the bed.
She didn't know how to face the night's brilliance.
She didn't know how to address her next time they met.
After lying down for a while, she finally sorted out her chaotic thoughts.
She was the pavilion master of the Yin Pavilion.
If there was anything she could do, it would be her.Wasn't it just a salutation?
Was she afraid of it!
Since she had come here, she could rest assured.
After thinking it through, she felt much more at ease.
She got up, straightened her clothes, opened the door, and walked out again.She strolled around the courtyard.
In the quiet courtyard, she was the only one.
She walked to the tree where the night brilliance practiced swords, closed her eyes, and a white figure appeared in her mind again.
The corner of her lips unconsciously curved upwards, revealing a charming smile.The sound of footsteps echoed from behind her.
She opened her eyes and didn't turn around.
With her internal force, she naturally knew who it was, and her face returned to its usual icy coldness, "How did you know I was here?
Didn't you say that you had something to tell me?
What did you come here for?" Gong Shuye took two steps forward, "Yuan Er, why didn't you tell me?" You Qinyuan turned around and looked into the distance, "Why didn't you tell me that you're here to see him?
Yuan Er...
You...
You like him, don't you?" You Qinyuan was stunned.
He took two steps back and raised his voice, "What are you talking about?!
You clearly know I'm an assassin.""I clearly know that I don't love..."Gong Shuye turned around and looked at her, "Yuan Er...
you don't have to lie to me.
I know that you called him by his name in your sleep...
Your expression has never been gentle before...
You...
don't lie to me..." You Qinyuan shook his head.
She wasn't lying to him, but she didn't know either.She didn't believe that she would fall in love with him, "No...
I won't...
Shuye, stop talking!" It was only now that Gong Shuye realized that she didn't even know that she liked that man.He smiled wryly and shook his head, not saying a word.
You Qinyuan turned around and no longer looked at him, "You should hurry up and leave."You really shouldn't have come here.
Shuye, let's go back..." Gong Shuye knew that her heart must be in turmoil right now, so he couldn't say anything else.
Thus, he nodded and turned around, vanishing into the night...You Qinyuan silently stood where she was, unmoving.
Her mind was blank, like a toy without electricity.
Without a trace of vitality, she stood upright like a statue.
After a long time, she heard someone calling her name from a distance.
She slowly turned around and walked towards the source of the voice.
There was no expression on her face.
Her eyes were empty, like a walking corpse that had been extracted from its soul.She walked slowly until Ye Wanmei's figure appeared in front of her.
Only then did she stand still.Ye Wanmei looked at her soulless appearance and was startled, "Big sis?
What happened to you?
What happened?" You Qinyuan snapped out of his daze and shook his head, "Meier, I'm alright." Ye Wanmei looked at her suspiciously, "Are you really alright?
But you look..." You Qinyuan squeezed out a smile and said softly, "I'm really fine."Meier, on the other hand, was looking for me?"Ye Wanmei nodded, "Mm, big sis, can we sneak out and play?"You Qinyuan's eyes widened, "Leaving out?
Now?" You Qinyuan looked up at the sky, "It's already so late.
How about we head out?" Ye Wanmei smiled slyly, "It's alright, big sis.
We'll sneak out and return.
We won't be discovered."You Qinyuan felt a little awkward, "If your older brother came looking for us, wouldn't he be done for?" Ye Wanmei smiled and waved his hand, "I won't.
I just told my older brother that I'm going to rest.
He won't come looking for me.
As for you, big sis, he wouldn't have come to your room for no reason, would he...?"Even so, with Yehua's martial arts skills, she couldn't hide it from him for too long.
She wasn't worried that she would be reprimanded by Yehua, but what would happen if the two girls left at such a late hour?
She couldn't use her martial arts in front of Ye Wanmei.She glanced at Ye Wanmei.
Her eyes were filled with expectation, and she couldn't bear to irritate her.
There couldn't be such a coincidence in this world, right?
She nodded, "However, we have to return earlier.
I'm still afraid that your brother will find out.""Ye Wanmei pulled her towards the back door, "Alright, I can't promise you."Ye Wanmei secretly glanced around and saw that no one was guarding the room.
He quietly opened the door, crouched down, and quickly rushed out.
You Qinyuan held his forehead.
Why did it feel like he was a thief?
Ye Wanmei looked at her and said softly, "Big sis, come quickly!
It's over if you're discovered!" "You Qinyuan quickly passed through the door, and Ye Wanmei sighed softly, "Phew...
I'm finally out.""..."You Qinyuan couldn't help but chuckle, "Alright, Meier.
Where do you want to go next?" Ye Wanmei pondered for a moment, "It's a pity that you didn't change into men's clothing.
Otherwise, you'd have to go to the brothel to take a look." "If You Qinyuan had any water in his mouth, he would've immediately spat it out.
She looked at him in shock, "Meier, you..." Ye Wanmei chuckled, "Big sis, don't misunderstand me."I was just curious.
I had never entered a brothel.
I wanted to see what kind of place it was that would cause so many men to forget about it."..."The corner of You Qinyuan's lips twitched, "It wasn't Qinglou himself who had made them forget about their past, but rather the gentleness of their homeland." Ye Wanmei didn't seem to understand, "But I still want to take a look." You Qinyuan walked straight ahead, "Next time, I'll take you there.
I won't be going there today.""Ye Wanmei's eyes lit up, and he quickly followed You Qinyuan, "Really?" You Qinyuan turned around and smiled, "Sister, when have I ever lied to you?" "Ye Wanmei was stunned by that smile.
Big sister You's smile is truly soul-stealing.
Even a woman like her can't resist it, let alone other men."No, she had to speed up and let her brother and sister be together as soon as possible.Hehe...You Qinyuan sighed again.
Had he been in bad luck recently?
Why was there always someone who wanted to trouble her?
In front of them stood three lecherous-looking men who looked at them with malicious expressions, commonly known as thugs.Ye Wanmei furrowed his brows, "Who are you?
How dare you block my path?
Are you tired of living?" "You Qinyuan thought that Ye Wanmei might have some ability.
After all, you're the young master's sworn sister.
You should have some self-defense techniques, right?" She tugged at Ye Wanmei's sleeves, "Meier, can you deal with these people?"Ye Wanmei didn't even turn around.
Instead, he whispered softly, "How is that possible?
I don't know martial arts either." You Qinyuan immediately felt that she had overestimated him, "Then how dare you speak to them in such a manner?" Ye Wanmei thought that Ye Wanmei was rather intelligent, "There's still a need for momentum.
It's possible that they would be scared off after hearing what I said.""You Qinyuan sighed softly, "However, why do I feel that not only are your words useless, but you've also aroused their interest in us?" "Ye Wanmei's smug face immediately collapsed, "Huh?
What should we do then?
Big sis, what should we do?"You Qinyuan took a step forward and said indifferently, "May I ask why you all are here?
We don't seem to know any of you.
Please make way for me and my sister." "Those hoodlums are looking at You Qinyuan with increasingly thick perverted eyes.
You Qinyuan frowned in disgust, and his voice became even colder, "I hope you can move out of the way.""..."Everyone was stunned by You Qinyuan's cold aura.
Ye Wanmei hid behind her and didn't dare to speak.
The hoodlums glanced at each other, and one of them stepped forward to touch You Qinyuan's face.
You Qinyuan quickly dodged, and his brows furrowed even tighter.
The man spoke with a teasing tone, "What are beauties doing so far away?
It's been a long time since I've seen such a beautiful woman.
I'll just go back with my big brother today.
My big brothers will definitely love you both dearly.""After that, the others started laughing loudly.You Qinyuan shielded Ye Wanmei and took a few steps back.
Then, Ye Wanmei suddenly spoke up, "Do you know who I am?
I am Young Master Chouye Yehuazhi's younger sister!
If you dare to touch me, I'll call my big brother to dismember your bodies and feed them to the dogs!"The others stared blankly for a moment, before bursting into laughter once more, "Ye Huazhi's younger sister?
So what if she's Ye Huazhi's younger sister?
We're still happy!" "You Qinyuan shook his head at Ye Wanmei, indicating that she shouldn't speak.
If she doesn't make a move now, we'll be in grave danger tonight.
She narrowed her eyes, and just as she was about to make her move, a bewitching voice drifted over, "Someone actually dares to plot against the two ladies on such a beautiful night?"Looking towards the source of the voice, You Qinyuan's eyes widened -?It's him!?He was the handsome man I'd met once in the inn.
The man looked at You Qinyuan, who was fanning himself with his hand.
His phoenix eyes narrowed, and he smiled, "Miss, we meet again." "You Qinyuan didn't say anything.
He just looked at him.
It's already so late, so why is he here?"The perverted trio looked at the young master holding the fan who suddenly came out of nowhere and said angrily, "Where did this kid come from?
He actually dared to disturb this old man's good fortune?
Is he tired of living?" That male holding the fan nodded slightly at the squire beside him, and that subordinate quickly rushed forward.
In less than three minutes, the three perverted hooligans fell to the ground, clutching their stomachs and screaming..The man slowly walked over to the three of them.
"Today is just a lesson for all of you.
It won't be that simple next time.
" The three of them looked at each other in dismay.
They endured the pain and ran away.Ye Wanmei looked at him with a look of adoration.
He didn't expect there to be such a good-looking man in this world.
He was practically on par with his older brother!
You Qinyuan had always looked at him vigilantly, and she was now even more certain that he wasn't an ordinary person.
This person was someone who even possessed such profound martial arts skills as a squire, so this person definitely wasn't simple.She could not see through him.
Although he had always maintained a smile, that smile was not from the bottom of his heart.
It could only be said to be a disguise.
Her intuition told her that this person was very dangerous.He couldn't help but chuckle when he saw You Qinyuan staring at him, "Miss, don't tell me you don't remember me?" "I do." You Qinyuan retracted his gaze, "The word 'indifferent' doesn't carry any emotions.
Ye Wanmei asked curiously, "Big sis, do you know this young master?" "I can't say I do.
It's just a meeting."Ye Wanmei didn't dare to say another word, "It's still a cold voice.
She feels that You Qinyuan doesn't like this young master holding a fan.
He even intentionally distances himself from her."You Qinyuan glanced at him, "No matter what, thank you for your help.
Meier, let's head back." The man smiled nonchalantly, "I hope that you'll be more careful when you return." "You Qinyuan left with Ye Wanmei, without even looking back.
Ye Wanmei didn't say a word as he silently followed her.He sighed.
He didn't know why this woman was hostile towards him.
He ordered the attendant beside him, "Follow her secretly and escort her back.
We'll also see which family she belongs to.
" The attendant nodded and disappeared into the night.The man turned around and slowly walked back.
He believed that they would meet again.
