Chapter 117 Immortal Brother~
"What? My little sister ran away from the palace without a word, and now that she's back, shouldn't I, as her second brother, come to see her?" Ye Mobei said, sounding like a caring older brother. If Liu Ruxuan hadn't experienced it firsthand, she might have believed that Ye Mobei was genuinely concerned about Ye Liuli.
Ye Liuli smiled and said, "It's nothing, Liuli thanks Second Brother for his kindness." Seeing Liu Ruxuan come out, Ye Liuli walked over to her and asked, "Ruxuan, did you sleep well last night?"
Liu Ruxuan glanced at Ye Mobei, only to see him looking at her with a strange expression. Liu Ruxuan quickly turned her head away and said, "It's fine."
"That's good." Ye Liuli said, then pulled Liu Ruxuan and said to Ye Mobei, "Second brother, we've already discussed it with my third brother. We're going to Ye Ming Garden today, so I'll take Ruxuan with me first."
Ye Mobei said understandingly, "Okay, you can go ahead, but be careful."
Ye Liuli didn't reply, and simply pulled Liu Ruxuan away. Ye Mobei glanced into Liu Ruxuan's room, snorted coldly, and left.
Dugu Juechen stood in front of the door, watching Ye Mobei leave.
As Ye Liuli and Liu Ruxuan walked along the wide road, they saw a girl shouting from afar, "Royal Sister, Royal Sister!"
"Royal sister? Is that your cousin?" After Liu Ruxuan finished speaking, Ye Liuli nodded: "Yes, her name is Chu Yao, and she is fifteen years old this year."
As soon as Ye Liuli finished speaking, Chu Yao came to the two of them, followed by four palace maids: "Royal sister, where have you been playing again? Oh? And who is this?"
"I went to the Qian Yuan Continent. This is a friend I met there, Liu Ruxuan." After Ye Liuli finished introducing her, Liu Ruxuan extended her hand and said, "Hello, my name is Liu Ruxuan."
Chu Yao looked Liu Ruxuan up and down, then suddenly smiled, revealing two small dimples on her face. Chu Yao hugged Liu Ruxuan tightly: "Hello, Sister Ruxuan, my name is Chu Yao."
The sudden hug made Liu Ruxuan stiffen, and she smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Hello, nice to meet you."
"It's a pleasure to meet you too." Chu Yao said, still clinging to Liu Ruxuan, so Ye Liuli had no choice but to lift her off.
"Sister Ruxuan, did Chu Yao scare you?" Chu Yao looked at Liu Ruxuan with her two big, watery eyes. Liu Ruxuan smiled and said, "No."
Chu Yao, without any hesitation, took Liu Ruxuan's left arm and wouldn't let go of Ye Liuli either, pulling one on the left and the other on the right. As they walked, she chattered incessantly, introducing every place in the palace, even talking non-stop during lunch... Liu Ruxuan was getting a headache, and Ye Liuli was utterly dejected.
Ye Liuli really didn't want to listen to Chu Yao's nagging, so she made an excuse to have Chu Yao fetch a bottle of apricot blossom wine from her courtyard, thus sending her away. Liu Ruxuan finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Your little cousin is too talkative!"
"She's outgoing and talks more than anyone else." Even Ye Liuli couldn't stand her.
Chu Yao skipped and hopped into Ye Liuli's courtyard. As soon as she entered, she saw a man who looked like a god sitting in a rattan chair, resting with his eyes closed. Chu Yao stared at him, unable to look away.
"Princess, Princess, it's not proper for you to stare at him like that..." A maidservant at the head of the palace whispered a reminder from behind Chu Yao. Chu Yao's eyes were fixed on Dugu Juechen, unwilling to look away even for a moment: "I...I...I can't help it...I can't take my eyes off him...There's such a handsome immortal brother..."
Upon hearing this, the palace maids behind Chu Yao exchanged glances and collectively facepalmed...
