Hearing Ye Mo’s words, Ye Yang and Ye Ling said nothing else. The three of them sat in silence again.
On the other hand, Liu Duo laid in bed, twisting and turning but unable to sleep. Yet no one came to coddle her or accompany her.
At that moment, she missed Ye Liu. If he were there, he would have followed her and cheered her up because she was feeling particularly frustrated. She couldn’t explain why she was so angry just now.
Second brother, Ye Liu, Second Liuzi. Mr Liuzi? Haha… She began to laugh as she kept thinking, and decided to address Ye Liu as Mr Liuzi, not using his name anymore.
She would wait for the day of Ye Liu’s return. When he heard her call him Second Liuzi, he would desperately retaliate.
She felt better, more relaxed now. Not long after, she closed her eyes and took a short rest, but she did not fall asleep.
The wooden door creaked as it was pushed open. Ye Ling entered silently. He sat by the bed and looked at Liu Duo with her eyes closed, like she was dreaming in sleep.
“Duo Er, Mo will stay far away from Chunmei from now on, and he absolutely did not have any feelings for her. I think Chunmei might be interested in him. So you have to trust Mo. We won’t disappoint you.”
He spoke softly, not even caring if Liu Duo was really asleep or not.
She had never fallen asleep. When she heard him, she thought, Gosh, this man is so protective of his brothers!
She was confused though. She had been so angry earlier, so why hadn’t he spoken up for Ye Mo? Now that everything was cleared, only then did he come forward to clear Ye Mo’s name.
Liu Duo did not know that the poor guy had been terribly frightened! For a woman to say she wanted to repudiate her husband was overbearing and unheard of. Throughout the kingdom, no one had ever talked about it or done it!
Liu Duo turned sideways on the bed, her head resting on the pillow and looking at him, tilted, “Ling, how do you know Li Chunmei is interested in Mo?”
Even Ye Ling, as innocent as he was, could feel it, so why didn’t Ye Mo? Liu Duo was seriously suspecting Ye Mo might have other ideas!
He looked at her with his head hanging low and shyly said, “I could feel it, and Mo said he has absolutely no feelings for Chunmei, so Duo Er, please don’t overthink it.”
“It better be, or else I’ll repudiate him. I won’t tolerate another woman!” Liu Duo squinted her eyes, making her face seem that much fiercer.
Seeing Liu Duo’s aggressive side, somehow Ye Ling suddenly felt that she was not their shared wife, but rather that they seem to be her shared husbands.
Ye Ling gulped. Although this was not the first time he had seen Liu Duo like this, he found her quite ferocious. Nevertheless, he liked it. Whichever form she took, he liked them all.
Liu Duo giggled and patted him on the side when she found him silent and stunned, like he had just been frightened. “Ling, come on. Lie down with me for a while. I’m not scolding you. Don’t be scared. I’ll only love you.”
Liu Duo had returned to her usual gentle self, the smile on her face resembling an illusion to Ye Ling. He thought, Just as Liu said, this woman changes her mood faster than one can turn the pages of a book!
If Liu Duo had known that was what Ye Ling thought of her, she would have definitely said, Oh my, the little white rabbit knows how to mock people now, does he? And at me, of all people! Got some guts there.
Ye Ling was not used to sleeping during the day, but he would obey Liu Duo. He took some time taking off his shoes before getting into bed.
Liu Duo, without a blanket, quickly rolled towards him. As she laid sideways against him, she teased, “Ling, why are you staying so far away? I won’t bite.”
