[Fantasy] Maiden Bai Yaya (Complete) - 7-9

Chapter 27 Night

Stroll My eldest brother returned home very late, just as everyone was about to have dinner. Seeing him return home alone, we were all curious about our father and second uncle. It turned out that my brother's carpenter had developed a very innovative carving technique, and they planned to study it with the craftsmen before returning—they were all workaholics!

Once home, my brother told my third brother and me to put on thick clothes and hurry with him. Although we were suspicious, we obediently complied. The carriage reached the riverbank, and we switched to water transport. Where were we going? Although it was winter, the Ling River still flowed swiftly. A large ship swayed majestically beside the dock, its bright lights casting a hazy, yellowish glow on the surrounding water. White gauze curtains fluttered in the wind along the wooden walkways, exuding an eerie aura in the heavy night. A black flag with white characters, bearing the ancient character for "white," was held high at the bow.

"Wow, what a magnificent boat! Is it ours?" Despite the cold wind, my heart was still awestruck. It's good to be rich!

"Yes. This is the kind of useless stuff that's fashionable in the capital." My eldest brother chuckled. "Fifth Sister, Third Brother, let's go up." With that, he tossed his cloak and took the lead, climbing up the ladder. My third brother and I followed closely behind, watching the servants emerge one after another, bowing to us, "Greetings, Master, Third Master, Miss." My eldest brother ignored them and didn't tell them to get up. I, too, strutted around with my head held high, what a grand spectacle! Ugh… the wind on the river was really strong; it had already made my ears red, forcing me to lower my head and tuck it into the warm fur collar of my cloak. My third brother chuckled softly behind me. I ignored him.

"Fifth Sister, Third Brother, make yourselves at home. There's an entertainment tonight, your eldest brother will take you to see it." The eldest brother took off his outer robe and tossed it to a maid beside him, ordering, "Burn the brazier brighter, and heat the wine." I thought to myself, why is the eldest brother a businessman? With that kind of aura, he should be a mafia boss!

"Yes." Actually, the maids had already heated the wine, just waiting to bring it up; their professionalism was impeccable. Without anyone ordering, a table full of steaming hot, pre-prepared dinner was brought out one by one. Someone also helped my third brother and me change clothes and wash our hands. A golden basin, a white soft cloth draped beside it, lemon slices soaking in the water—just for washing hands…how luxurious! In our family, we always wash our hands before eating…Suddenly I felt like a country bumpkin! I glanced at my third brother; he was still so elegant, using everything methodically and skillfully. I wasn't intimidated; those who have studied abroad are indeed extraordinary. (These past few years, he's seen all sorts of places, and you're just a country bumpkin in the family.)

"Our boat is usually used to entertain the city gentlemen. You haven't been here in the summer, Fifth Sister. The river ripples, accompanied by the melodious voices of fisherwomen, tea brewing in incense burners, and ornately decorated pleasure boats gliding by. The scenery is picturesque from afar, and lively up close too." My brother said cheerfully, taking the hand warmer offered by the maid and handing it to me. "This summer, I'll definitely take you on a trip." My eyes lit up... Life in the capital is so pleasant.

"Brother said there's something planned for today?" An Yang sipped his wine and said to me, "This is top-quality Five Dragons Brew, very strong. Drink slowly, Little Sister. It's different from the Osmanthus Wine you usually drink. It's very effective at warming you up, but this wine has a strong aftereffect." I nodded obediently.

"Third brother is still as thoughtful and considerate as ever. But fifth sister is family, and she'll have her future husband to cherish her. While you're being considerate to your sister, shouldn't you also find yourself a suitable heiress?" The eldest brother, holding a wine glass, smiled knowingly, his shrewd eyes narrowing as he teased the third brother.

"Eldest brother, it's too early to worry about me. I wonder where my dear sister-in-law is now?" An Yang was equally adept, responding fluently. It wasn't easy for anyone to get a verbal advantage from him. But… third brother also needs to get married… A sudden tightness gripped my chest. What… what was the reason?

"Heh, I knew you were a sly one, insisting on dragging me into this. Let me tell you, Father asked me about this today, and I've already agreed. I'll be back in the spring. Now let's see what you all have to say." A low laugh spread across his face, his large, dry hand casually swirling the enamel cup.

“There’s a lot to say, for example…” An Yang smiled, his eyes slightly raised, then stopped smiling and continued, “Besides, even if eldest brother gets married, there’s still second brother, so it’s still a long way off for An Yang.” I rested my chin on my

hand and smiled as I watched the two of them banter. This kind of atmosphere was rare; the brothers were joking and teasing each other, so harmonious and friendly. “That would be good if it really was still a long way off.” Eldest brother glanced at me and then asked the maid, “Have we arrived yet?”

“Reporting to mistress, we’re almost there. We can already see Prince Yue’s ship ahead.”

“Even Prince Yue has come? He’s really giving the Bai family a lot of face.”

“Could it be that this ‘program’ was arranged by eldest brother?” An Yang smiled faintly.

"Isn't this Third Brother and Fifth Sister here? Why not have some fun in the dead of winter? Let's take this opportunity to invite some old friends to pass the time. They'll have to thank my Fifth Brother for this." I smiled sweetly at my eldest brother, who took my hand and said, "Prince Yue's arrival is just in time. I'll introduce you later. You're about the same age, you'll definitely get along. This young Prince Yue is quite witty, let our Fifth Brother take a look." Young Prince Yue? I thought princes were all old men… Turns out this one is quite young. Looking up, I saw my eldest and third brothers exchanging glances, both smiling, but my third brother's usually gentle smile held a hint of fierceness. My eldest brother raised an eyebrow and turned away.

"Perhaps it's a coincidence. My younger sister and I may have already met this young prince today," my third brother said casually. Met him? Suddenly it dawned on me—didn't I meet someone who claimed to be surnamed Liu today? Could it really be such a coincidence?

"Oh? Prince Yue went to Juchun Garden today too?" the elder brother asked with interest.

"Indeed, a young prince from the royal family wanted to invite my sister and me for a chat." He briefly recounted how they met, omitting my anecdote about how a teacher is worse than someone who eats excrement. "...So Anyang thought that getting involved with the royal family would be troublesome, so it would be better to avoid it. That young master was just curious; it wouldn't cause any big trouble. He'd only be concerned for a couple of days."

"Heh, this matter... I think Prince Yue's personality means he won't let it go so easily." The elder brother twirled the ring on his thumb, pondering.

After saying this, the ship sailed into a harbor, sheltered from the wind. The maids took our cloaks and helped us put them on, then opened the side doors, letting in a cool breeze that caused the white gauze curtains beside the doors to flutter. I saw a much larger ship opposite us, its deck high, only half a deck shorter than our double-decker vessel, yet far more brightly lit. Orange lanterns swayed gracefully in the breeze, casting flickering shadows. A tall white curtain served as a backdrop, casting long, thin shadows of people—was this… a stage on the water? A

cacophony of voices filled the air, not just from the ship opposite us, but also from many other groups scattered around us, apparently invited dignitaries from the capital. Curious, I looked closer and saw a bright purple ship nearby, not very large but exquisitely crafted, with purple hulls and golden railings, and elegantly dressed maids moving about. This must be the young Prince Yue's ship. Looking further afield, I saw ships of various sizes, all exquisitely crafted and grand. I sighed; I really should have brought Ah Qing to see this too.

"Fifth Sister, it looks novel, but it's not as comfortable as watching it on land. The dance boat is cramped and confined; how can it compare to the spaciousness of a theater? But the gentlemen here are all about aesthetics, it's quite a waste of money and resources." My eldest brother seemed to scoff at these frivolous displays. But when you walk by the river

, you're bound to get your shoes wet; you have to say one thing to one person and another to another, it's part of the job. But I don't care, as long as it's novel and interesting. "It's freezing cold with the doors and windows wide open in the dead of winter. If you're cold, come here to Third Brother." An Yang held out his hand, and I hesitated before taking it. I couldn't be too blatant in front of my eldest brother. He looked at me amusedly, brushed a strand of hair behind my ear, and whispered, "Little Sister, you seem quite timid lately. Are you afraid Third Brother will eat you up here?" His words were ambiguous, and hearing the word "eat," my cheeks flushed. I glared at him, but he just smiled and didn't seem to care. When I looked up again, I saw my older brother smiling and watching us. I panicked, and An Yang tightened his grip on my hand.

"Is everyone here? Even if not, how can we wait around when His Highness is here? Let's begin." He then gave the order, and the opposite ship was bustling with activity, seemingly announcing that the performance could begin. After a while, everything quieted down, and the sound of a guzheng filled the air, creating a truly extraordinary atmosphere. My eldest brother stood up and said, "Third and Fifth Sisters, keep an eye on things for now. I'll just wander around for a bit and then come back." Knowing my brother was busy, I obediently agreed.

The maids frequently changed the wine, ensuring it was always warm but not scalding. I took a large gulp from my third brother's cup, and it burned from my throat all the way to my stomach—the taste was just like Erguotou (a type of Chinese liquor). Anyang had been watching me the whole time, and after I finished, he drank it down in one gulp, still holding my lip print, and even licked his lips afterwards. I remembered the kiss in the carriage and last night, and my cheeks flushed slightly, whether from embarrassment or the alcohol, I didn't know. Seeing my reaction, Third Brother chuckled softly, his breath brushing against my earlobe as he whispered, "Little sister, you always seem so alluring after a few drinks, your eyes watery. I really want to get you drunk every day... and then..."

I glared at him and said, "Dream on!" He chuckled again.

"Little sister, you've really fallen. You're treating Third Brother more and more like a lover... but Third Brother is very happy about this change." His fingers, gripping my wrist, slipped inside his sleeve and caressed my skin. I was startled. It seemed... that was indeed the case. Was I becoming more and more accustomed to his company and intimacy? Was this a good thing or a bad thing? Suddenly, voices from downstairs interrupted my thoughts.

"Are Third Brother Bai and Fifth Miss upstairs?" The voice sounded very familiar. "Hao Lei said that the extraordinary person Xiao Wang met today is upstairs, so Xiao Wang came uninvited." As he spoke, Liu Yue entered the room. "Ah, these two must be the third brother and little sister of the Bai family. Do you still remember me? I've been looking for you all day." He then put on an expression of annoyance and regret.

"This humble subject greets Your Highness, the Prince of Yue." The third brother said this, but showed no intention of rising to bow, and the prince didn't seem to mind. Seeing me rise to curtsy, he quickly grabbed my wrist, saying there was no need, seemingly without any airs.

"Little sister Bai is Hao Lei's beloved, how could I accept such a perfunctory greeting? I'm afraid Hao Lei might get angry and not take me out next time he goes out to play." This person had large, round, bright eyes, and a face even whiter than a woman's. He was very handsome and pleasing to the eye, though still quite young, not much older than A Qing. He wore a dark purple robe with a silver mink-collared cloak, and a large pearl was set in his hair on a trembling red tassel, making his face appear even more like a silver basin.

"Your Highness is too kind. Although Your Highness is magnanimous and disdains such formalities, the respect of the people towards their ruler cannot be disregarded. If others don't see it that way, not only will Your Highness be seen as magnanimous and understanding of the people's opinions, but they might also think that I, a commoner from the mountains, am indiscriminate in distinguishing between superiors and inferiors and causing chaos between the ruler and his subjects." After saying this, I gave a slight curtsy and said, " This humble woman greets Your Highness,

may Your Highness be well and blessed." "The fifth son of the Bai family is truly sharp-tongued; this humble man cannot argue with you. It also reminds me of a couplet that the fifth son recited at Juchun Garden today, which was hilarious. He is truly a wonderful person who is both extremely clever and unconventional." This Prince Yue speaks vividly, and his exaggerated expressions and actions are quite amusing. If Mei could appear in public, she would probably get along very well with him.

"Your Highness must be mocking this humble woman for being uncouth and barbaric." I smiled faintly, took a sip of wine, and picked up a sliced strawberry with my handkerchief and put it in my mouth.

"No, no, why would Xiao Wu twist my meaning? Although I'm not often in that suffocating palace, I've never met anyone as interesting as you. If your two elder brothers and Master Bai were willing to spare some time, I truly wish you could spend more time with me, so I could benefit from your witty remarks." He then stood up and bowed to me. "Your Highness

will likely be disappointed. My younger sister is only visiting relatives and will soon be returning to her hometown in the north. It's truly difficult to fulfill Your Highness's kind request, and I hope Your Highness will forgive her." My third brother said slowly and apologetically, but I couldn't detect any real remorse in him.

"That's truly a great disappointment, Xiao Wang… Xiao Wang…" he said, seemingly unable to bear it, as if I were a long-time friend about to embark on a long journey, appearing about to shed tears. Seeing his expression, I felt no emotion whatsoever; in fact, I almost spat out my wine. What a dramatic act!

"Your Highness, there's no need for such concern. The capital is surely teeming with extraordinary people and events. My sister is merely innocent and outspoken; why worry so much?" My third brother comforted me softly, truly putting on a convincing act.

"Sigh... Tears fall like flowers, birds startle with sorrow at parting." My face arched dramatically at a 45-degree angle...

"Cough..." I choked. It's definitely more comfortable and pleasant to be with family. Chatting with strangers like this requires not only elaborate writing but also extreme caution. So stifling.

"Oh, Your Highness has arrived? Is my sister so charming?" My eldest brother returned just then.

"Ah, Brother Haolei, come and judge! I finally met an interesting person, but good things don't last forever; she'll be going home soon!" The boy pounded his chest, seemingly deeply distressed.

"Prince Yue is indeed very loyal and affectionate. There are ways to make it last, but we'll have to ask my father's opinion..." My eldest brother smiled knowingly, his words carrying a hidden meaning. I felt annoyed. Here we go again? Does this topic have to be brought up every few days? Am I already an old maid? Everyone's suddenly concerned about my marriage.

"Ah, Brother Haolei's suggestion is indeed excellent, but I wonder what your father's temperament is like? How should we get along?" He really knows what's going on.

"Eldest brother seems to have forgotten, little sister hasn't had her coming-of-age ceremony yet. We can discuss it later." My third brother had a faint smile on his lips, his voice unhurried, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

"What? Little Fifth hasn't had her coming-of-age ceremony yet?" the young prince asked curiously. My head was a little sore. Could you please not discuss this in front of me?

"Ya Ya has had a bit too much to drink... her head is very sore. Your Highness, please forgive her, please let Ya Ya rest." I maintained a sweet and friendly smile.

"Your Highness, elder brother, let me help my younger sister downstairs to rest. Please, Your Highness, take your leave." With that, my third brother helped me out the door. As

soon as we were outside, An Yang, not caring if they could still see us, scooped me up and strode down to the lower room. I pressed my face against his neck.

"Third brother..." I called him muffledly, my heart filled with unbearable frustration. He lowered his head to kiss my cheek, but I pressed my lips to his, eagerly sucking on them.

What's going on? Am I, Bai Yaya, in such a hurry to get married? It's one thing for my father and third uncle to remind me, and it's another for my third brother to join in the fun, but how come my elder brother has already picked out a husband for me after only two days in the capital! So what if he's a prince? Is he that special? Why doesn't anyone want to ask me what I think? Ask their daughters, their sisters, who they like, who they want to marry?

Third Brother opened the nearest door, slipped inside, and slammed it shut with his heel. He extinguished the candle with a gentle flick of his wrist, plunging the room into darkness…

He carried me to the bed, placed me on it, and pressed himself against me, his lips never leaving mine. His weight deepened the kiss, not passionate, but tender and careful. Yet, I felt it wasn't enough. At that moment, I needed to be crushed to release the pent-up emotions in my chest. I let out a soft moan, wriggling in protest. He thought I didn't want to leave and was about to pull away when I raised my arm. The loose sleeve slipped down, and my smooth, slender hand snaked around his neck. His breath quickened, and his tongue began its hot, probing exploration. I raised my chin to meet his touch, sucking and teasing his tongue as it entered my mouth, the rhythm mirroring the rhythm of lovemaking…

“Baby, don't play with fire,” An Yang's voice was hoarse, his warm breath brushing my face. In the darkness, his bright eyes were misty and half-closed. I pulled his head down, and just as my lips touched his, he groaned and forcefully captured my cherry lips, biting them hard. Although it hurt, how could I care at this moment? I pushed him down forcefully and rolled onto his lower abdomen, retaliating against his rudeness. He groaned in pain as I held his cheeks in my hands and lifted my face. His already disheveled hair slid down his face and neck. Beneath me was my third brother's already swollen and hard penis, throbbing and pressing against my flower cave through my clothes.

I couldn't see his extremely beautiful face and deep expression clearly, but I could clearly feel his affection and desire.

"Third Brother."

"Baby..."

"Third Brother, does Ya Ya really have to get married? Can't she stay even a moment longer?" I asked seriously.

"Baby... Third Brother hopes you will never get married." He answered rather casually.

"Tch, you're so selfish, hindering your sister's life's most important matter for your own desires." I was almost amused. I deliberately moved my pert buttocks back and forth, rubbing against his erection. He snorted, seemingly both happy and pained.

"Little vixen, do you think your sadness makes Third Brother feel better? What life's most important matter? Your happiness is the most important thing." He gripped my slender waist with both hands, his breath ragged, and couldn't help but start grabbing me and pressing me hard against the spot he desired most.

"Oh? Then little sister doesn't feel uncomfortable at all now, I wonder if Third Brother is uncomfortable?" After saying that, I found the protrusion on his chest through his clothes and drew circles with my fingertips. His erection, already swollen to its limit, suddenly thrust forcefully into my already aroused flower. I let out a soft moan, "Mmm..." It felt so numb... With him doing this, how could I possibly have any thoughts of self-pity or anything else?

"Third Brother is in so much pain, does Little Sister have any way to make Third Brother feel less uncomfortable?" He pulled my body down to press against him, licking my earlobe as he said, "And baby, don't call me that. Calling me so seductively will only make Third Brother feel worse..." He made me weak all over, half of my body numb.

"Third Brother... no..." Good heavens... my ear was being sucked, and the other half of my body wouldn't obey me.

"Then beg for mercy for Third Brother." He said again, his warm breath filling my ear, I was going crazy.

"Third Brother... please..." I couldn't believe I could make such a soft, seductive sound. My cheeks flushed, and as soon as the words left my mouth, I realized I'd been tricked again... What was I begging him for?! It seemed like he was begging for sex…

“Oh, baby…you’re so irresistible…” He suddenly grabbed me and rolled over, pinning me beneath him. Because of this, his erection thrust hard against my vulva, sending a shiver of pleasure through my body…we both groaned softly; desire tasted so delicious. He rested his chin on my chest, rubbing it gently, and said, “Little sister, can third brother touch here?”

Even though I was clothed, I could still feel my right breast tingling from his breath. I quickly shook my head, and he added, “Third brother won’t take off your clothes.” I hesitated slightly, remaining silent. “Is little sister giving in? Or are you thinking about it?” He took the opportunity to bite my nipple through my clothes, then tightened his lips around it, teasing me.

“Mmm…” I bit my lip, trying to stop any more screams from escaping, but my body had already arched up in response. An electric-like pleasure surged through my body from that spot, making me tremble slightly. I quickly grabbed the sheets, breathing heavily.

"Baby, can I touch here now, Third Brother?" He actually asked, he... he'd already done it... why was he asking me? Seeing that I still didn't answer, he kept asking "Can I?" while gently thrusting his hard member against me. I was almost driven crazy, and my soft moans finally couldn't be held back any longer. "Mmm... mmm... yes, yes..." I closed my eyes in embarrassment, refusing to look at him, insisting that he say it out loud.

"Little sister is so understanding... mmm..." He took it in his mouth, the feeling! It was so intense… I could almost feel the shape his mouth and tongue were tracing. Opening my eyes, I saw that he had unbuttoned my outer robe and inner garment, and was now sucking on most of my breast through the thin gauze of my undergarment… His saliva had already soaked my undergarment…

“Mmm… Third Brother… no…” The intense pleasure of being sucked almost overwhelmed me… My vagina loosened, and a gush of love juice flowed out… I couldn’t help but tremble, tilting my head back and arching my back, pushing my breast even further into his mouth…

“Ya Ya, baby…” He was also panting against my chest… His large, hot hands gripping my waist trembled.

Suddenly, there was a flurry of hurried footsteps in the cabin, and I could vaguely hear words like “Fifth Miss, Third Young Master.” I knew that Liu Yue had probably left, and my eldest brother was sending people to look for us. I raised my soft arm and pushed my third brother’s face, signaling him to get up quickly so they wouldn’t discover our current state.

“Little sister, are you scared?” My third brother smiled wickedly, “Afraid of being caught in bed with another man by your eldest brother?” That bastard.

"Hey...no...mmm" He kissed me again, sucking on my tongue.

"Shh...don't make a sound if you don't want to be discovered. Let your brother kiss you again and I'll take you out." He supported the back of my head with one hand and kneaded my breasts, which he had just teased, with the other. His palms were hot, making my heart tremble. He picked me up in a flash and sat on the edge of the bed facing outwards, making me straddle his waist. The moment I sat down, my flower was facing his erect penis. I let out a "mmm..." and went limp against his shoulder as I was thrust into him. Ah, I'm going to die...I was almost out of my mind! He swallowed all my moans. If it weren't for our clothes separating us, from that angle, he could have penetrated deep into my flower. Just thinking about it was unbearable. I was practically pinned between his legs, my wetness soaking his trousers... If my clothes were thin enough, I think he could even feel my vagina contracting...

The voices in the distance were getting closer, almost reaching the next room... I panicked, but dared not ask again. I bit his tongue, which was still wrapped around my mouth. Who knew he would lift my long skirt, his slippery fingers slipping inside my panties… I was so frightened that my flower-like opening contracted, “No…” The noise grew closer, the sounds from inside the cabin almost audible, and his wicked fingers were already probing my entrance… He whispered in my ear, “Baby, you’re so wet, can I come in, Third Brother?” His fingers roamed over my petals, teasing the gushing moisture, making me unbearably itchy and numb. I shook my head violently, because the maids and servants outside were already knocking on the door of the next room… “Baby? Really not? We don’t have time…” Ah… His thumb maliciously pressed and scratched my clitoris… I trembled all over… I bit his shoulder hard and shook my head violently… Another gushe of honey-like fluid gushed out from my lower body as I contracted with pleasure. “Really not? Little sister… they seem to be coming in soon…” The voices outside were practically right outside the door!! But he had a wicked look on his face, unhurried and determined to get rid of me until he agreed.

"Third Brother, is it okay?" He was covered in sweat and trying hard to hold back... He curled his index finger and patiently teased the entrance of my flower hole with his thick, hard knuckles... "Baby... is it okay?" I was panting heavily, grabbed his collar, opened my already dazed eyes and looked at him, and nodded! With the already overflowing lubrication from my vaginal fluids, he inserted his finger, which was immediately and tightly enveloped by the flesh. Third Brother sighed in pain, "Oh...you're so small..." I tensed up, my eyes widening from the instant surge of pleasure...the moan I was about to utter was swallowed whole by him. The suppressed pleasure and the thrill of the affair came rushing in, and I felt a wave of pleasure contracting in my lower body, a torrent of love juice spraying onto his wet palm...I couldn't care less about being shy, because the intense, dazzling climax had arrived...He chuckled softly, "You're driving me crazy..." Third Brother had only inserted one finger...without even a slight thrust, yet I was already at my climax. Just then, there was a knock at the door...

a deadly, suffocating pleasure arrived...and with extreme tension, I fainted.

Hao Lei saw his younger sister, covered by a cloak, being carried upstairs by An Yang. His sister was sleeping soundly. He stroked her cheek; she was indeed drunk, her face still so hot.

"An Yang, were you in too much of a hurry today, brother? Did you frighten your little sister?" Bai Haolei looked at An Yang's unusually alluring eyes with a strange expression.

"How could I?... I have to thank you for this..." An Yang smiled brightly and carried the beauty away.

Chapter 28 Exposing

Back at the Bai residence, An Yang entrusted Ya Ya to Mei Lai's care and was then invited to a small hall by Hao Lei. Bai Haolei slowly sipped his tea, only looking at him without speaking. An Yang simply smiled faintly, and after a while broke the silence, saying, "Brother, did you call me here without saying anything? If not, then I, your third brother, do have something to say." Bai Haolei gestured for him to speak, and An Yang continued, "Being related to the royal family is naturally good; they have power and money, which is even more beneficial to our Bai family. However, firstly, Father and Uncle have already decided on my younger sister's marriage, and secondly, this person who came halfway through doesn't know anything about her background. I'm afraid my younger sister will suffer in the future. Since he is a prince, he may already have several favored concubines in his mansion, but who can guarantee what will happen in the future? Should my younger sister be forced to compete with other women for his affections? With her temperament, she may not be able to bear it. Furthermore, although our family is somewhat well-off, we are still just a merchant family, without power or influence. What are we in the eyes of those royal family officials? Being so helpless and alone, my younger sister's life will inevitably be difficult." An Yang's words were gentle, but his usually calm eyes were now slightly solemn.

"In your opinion, who is the right person?" The eldest brother asked lazily, skimming the foam from his teacup.

"Naturally, it's Mengzhi."

"Oh?" The eldest brother glanced at him and chuckled, "No ulterior motives?"

Bai Anyang chuckled, his bright eyes sparkling with amusement. "Ulterior motives, of course. Are you curious, brother?"

"Curious? I am a little, but well, she's my younger sister after all." He paused, his gaze fixed intently on his usually uninterested third brother. "Now you should tell me, what did you do in the cabin just now?"

"Oh? That's a strange question, brother. A man and a woman alone in a dimly lit room, with a bed in the middle... what else could we possibly do...?" Anyang's expression was serious. If there had been a third person in the room, no one would have guessed that such suggestive, ambiguous, and flirtatious words could come from someone with such an expression.

"Don't try to fool me. My little sister's coming-of-age ceremony hasn't been held yet. I don't believe you're so ignorant as to take her virginity."

"Sigh... Big brother, speaking of this, sometimes I even suspect that our father is deliberately torturing us by delaying the ceremony for our little sister. We can only look but not touch..."

"We?" Hao Lei frowned and said, "Bai An Yang, watch your words. You're a refined gentleman in everyone's eyes, how can you speak so frivolously and disrespectfully?"

"Yes, Third Brother understands." Bai An Yang chuckled softly again.

"What do you mean by 'we'?"

"Naturally, it means that besides me, there are many others who fantasize about our little sister."

"Bai Meng Zhi? Who else?" Bai Hao Lei was very dissatisfied with his cunning third brother deliberately keeping him in suspense.

"Big brother is right. Besides Meng Zhi, there are others. As far as I know, Fourth Brother is also quite restless."

"Fourth Brother and Fifth Sister have been together since childhood, so their relationship is extraordinary. Are you misunderstanding something?" Bai Hao Lei pondered.

"That would be best, but I'm afraid Fourth Brother is already deeply in love, and Little Sister is willing to play along." An Yang thought for a moment and then added, "Oh, there's also Little Sister's shadow, but that's not a problem."

"Shadow? That's alright. As long as Fifth Sister is willing, she can be close to him after she gets married. Just don't forget, Xingzhi thinks about her every day on the mountain." "

If Little Sister marries her brother, I'm afraid it will put an end to his hopes." An Yang was somewhat uncertain.

"...It's all so confusing. Having a daughter in the family, it's like she's meant for you wolves." Bai Haolei frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Have you considered that Bai Yaya is your own sister? How will you face her in the future if you have such feelings for her? How will you explain it to her husband? Will you ever get married?"

"Can't you see I'm trying my best? Luckily, we've confirmed today that she's not opposed. If my brother-in-law is Mengzhi, I think he'll be prepared. As for whether she'll marry in the future, if my younger sister can accept us, marrying her would be an explanation to Father. Even if she doesn't, it's not a big deal. The Bai family has many male heirs; it's fine if my older brothers continue the lineage." An Yang smiled faintly, seemingly envisioning a foreseeable future.

"You're thinking far ahead. Did you and Mengzhi have a secret agreement?" Bai Haolei felt a sense of powerlessness. His younger brothers were unpredictable. Since they had already made an agreement, he figured his sister couldn't fight them all. Besides, she was young and innocent, and these beauties were all stunningly gorgeous. Sooner or later, she would be their prey and seduced away.

"It's not really a secret discussion, but if Mengzhi wants to win the heart of his beloved, our help would be more reliable. We all know that."

"Have you asked Fifth Sister what she thinks? Does she... like Mengzhi? What if she likes someone else?"

"Brother, don't worry. Little Sister has been raised in seclusion since childhood and has had very little contact with men, mostly just the few in the family. Besides, she doesn't treat Mengzhi or Xingzhi any differently. If Xingzhi were her childhood sweetheart, they've been separated for so many years, and he'll probably still be stuck in the forest by the time Little Sister gets married. It's pitiful. Besides, with Mengzhi's methods, as long as Little Sister isn't only thinking about Xingzhi, it won't be a big problem." An Yang's expression flickered, somewhat jealous, and he said, "I'm afraid our Little Sister is thinking about someone else..."

"Oh?"

"Heh..." An Yang smiled bitterly, "I'm afraid Little Sister's heart belongs to Fourth Brother."

"..." Bai Haolei suddenly didn't know what to say. In recent years in Kyoto, I've heard many scandalous stories about powerful families. Incestuous relationships are not uncommon, especially among prominent families, with the imperial family being the most decadent. However, it's rare to hear of almost the entire family involved. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "You must not let Father know your thoughts..." Otherwise, there might be endless trouble.

"Third brother understands," An Yang frowned, probably because his second uncle had already noticed something amiss... "Third brother has a favor to ask of eldest brother."

"Tell me."

"Eldest brother, could you please tell Father that after your marriage, you should hold a coming-of-age ceremony for your younger sister? She's of age, and it's even a little late now." A hint of embarrassment flashed across An Yang's fair face.

"Heh," Hao Lei chuckled, looking at him. This younger brother, who was always impassive and incredibly shrewd, was now blushing. "What? Can't stand it?"

"Big brother, don't laugh at me. It's just that my little sister is too beautiful. I'm not the only one who can't stand her."

"I suppose our handsome and dashing Bai Anyang could have any woman he wanted, and countless women would willingly offer themselves to him. Who knew that his only problem was not knowing how to win over his own sister..." Hao Lei laughed loudly, showing no mercy. "Alright, this favor concerns the happiness of my brothers, so I have to help."

"Then thank you very much, big brother." Hao Lei waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for further discussion. "Also, if that Prince Yue makes any further moves, I'll have to trouble you to help me fend him off."

"Since I know what you're thinking, and my little sister has no interest in him, it's only right."

Suddenly, there was a noise from the outer room, presumably my third brother had returned. Actually, I had been awake for a while but hadn't made a sound. My cheeks burned, and I let out a soft moan as I hid under the covers. We had done *that*. Suddenly, footsteps approached, and the door to the room was pushed open. I quickly lay back down and closed my eyes. The footsteps stopped at the doorway, and I heard my third brother say softly, "Just bring him in, be gentle."

"Yes," several older maids replied, their voices not very clear.

"Alright, go out," my third brother added. Soon everyone in the room was gone, and the door was closed again. Although my eyes were closed, the heat on my face couldn't lie, and my hands were clenched tightly under the covers. At this moment, facing the man I had been having an affair with, I truly didn't know how to face him. I was so ashamed…

Third Brother came to the bedside, leaned down, and his breath touched mine. His soft lips met mine, and after a few moments of gentle kisses, a soft laugh came from behind me. "Your eyelashes are trembling, little sister, are you still pretending?" Seeing that he had seen through me, I opened my eyes and gave him a reproachful look before burying my head under the covers. "Come out quickly, the bathwater is ready. You were all sweaty on the boat, aren't you going to wash up? Are you waiting for the water to cool down?" He saw me laughing as I pulled the covers up.

"I'll wash myself, you go out first," I mumbled from under the covers.

"Okay, Third Brother, go out first. The toiletries and clothes are all laid out by the tub."

After a while, there was no sound. I peeked out and saw that he was indeed gone. A corner of the bathtub was visible behind the screen, steaming. I pinned my hair back with a hairpin, took off my clothes, and stepped inside. I exhaled, feeling so refreshed. Standing inside, I pondered, thinking I still had some self-control, but who would have thought I'd be so easily defeated by him? Remembering his shameful fingers and the frenzied pleasure, my still sensitive flower-like opening began to secrete sweetness again. I clutched my burning cheeks, wishing I could disappear into the ground.

"What are you thinking about, little sister? Why is your face so red? Are you perhaps thinking about what happened with Third Brother on the boat just now…?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind me, startling me and causing me to turn around. There stood An Yang, only wearing his undergarments, leaning against the screen, looking down at me.

"You…you, how did you get in?" I quickly glanced down at myself. Whew, thankfully the water was high enough to barely cover my chest, only my shoulders were visible. There were so many flower petals in the water that I couldn't see my body clearly.

"Little sister just told Third Brother to 'go out first,' and Third Brother has already gone out. Little sister didn't say you couldn't come back." He was playing word games with me! I stared at him, dumbfounded. I had never seen such an unreasonable person before.

"Can I say it now?" I said weakly.

“No.” He smiled slightly, bracing his hands on the edge of the tub, looking down at my upturned head from behind. “Even the gods wouldn’t leave now that they see my little sister with her half-exposed breasts and flushed face, let alone your brother, whose body aches from missing you so much.” Hearing him say his body aches, my cheeks burned again. He slowly leaned down and captured my lips. For some reason, I didn’t pull away; it was a feeling of anticipation mixed with fear of being hurt. He held my pink lips and sucked on them for a while, then slowly slid down my ear, my neck, and down to my collarbone. My body went weak from his kisses, and I had to raise my arms to grab the edge of the tub to prevent myself from sliding down. His sweet kisses landed on my arms… My body was still incredibly sensitive, and I couldn’t help but tremble slightly. One of his wicked hands secretly slipped over my shoulder and into the water, grabbing one of my breasts… I gasped and cried out softly, “No… Third Brother!”

“My little sister’s voice is so beautiful, say a little more.” He kissed my cheek and sighed.

"..." I closed my eyes, biting my lip to keep from making a sound. He squeezed my breast hard, and I cried out in pain, "Ah..." He chuckled softly, then traced circles on my nipple with his fingers. So my nipple was my sensitive spot. I tilted my head back and lay on his shoulder, breathing softly against his neck. He turned his head and kissed my lips passionately, while his other large hand found my breast in the water and began to knead both of them. "Mmm..." My moan was muffled by him, and I thrust my chest forward, offering it to his hands. The thought that the person playing with me like this was my own brother filled me with both shame and excitement. I wondered what I would do if Xiao Si did this to me?

"Baby, are you not paying attention? Is Third Brother making you uncomfortable?" He slightly withdrew from my already swollen cherry lips, leaving a trail of ambiguous saliva. He teased it with his tongue, his half-closed eyes brimming with desire, licking the saliva left on my chin as he seductively asked, "Then, baby, do you want to play something exciting with your brother?"

"No..." Before I could finish speaking, he grabbed my breast with one hand and hooked my slender waist with the other, lifting me up. I gasped, my buttocks landing on the edge of the tub, my legs still in the water, my back tightly held against his hot chest. The water droplets on my body had already soaked his thin undergarment, and his equally hot penis was pressed against my waist.

"Little sister's body is truly beautiful and alluring, the first time I've ever seen anything like it, making your brother unable to put it down." My body was exposed to the cool air, but being held by such a lustful man, I didn't feel cold at all; instead, I trembled from the heat. I looked down at myself, my body glistening with water, still clinging to a few petals that had been floating in the water. My pubic area, which had never grown any hair, was innocently exposed. My slender waist was firmly held in the man's arms, and one of my breasts was reddened from his kneading.

"Waaah... Third Brother, no..." I cried out. This... this is too lewd... I twisted my body restlessly, hoping he would put me down.

"Baby... be good, don't move." Third Brother's breath was unsteady, and his large hand, which had been holding my chest, moved down to my lower body without warning. Four fingers squeezed between my tightly closed legs, his thumb searching near my clitoris...

"Ah... no..." I threw my head back so high that my hairpin fell to the ground, and my long black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, landing on his shoulder and my chest.

"Baby... you are so beautiful. How can I let you go!" He kept kissing my earlobe, and his fingers between my legs parted the petals, effortlessly probing inside. I was breathing heavily, and he groaned softly as well. The hard object pressing against my lower back grew even larger. He adjusted his breathing and began to gently thrust his fingers in and out. His arm around my waist had already wrapped around my breasts, and he was vigorously kneading one of them…

“Third Brother…stop, stop…mmm…” I gasped, my words incoherent, my surging desire fully aroused. I parted my long, slender legs slightly to make it easier for him to thrust.

“My body is more honest than my mouth…” Third Brother actually had the mood to tease me at this moment. "Baby, why are you so wet and tight? Are you too excited?" He laboriously probed into my body, and I shyly turned my head away, only to see the scene reflected in the bronze mirror beside me... A handsome young man, wearing only an undershirt, was holding a naked girl in front of him, his head lowered to nibble on the sweetness of her fragrant neck, his right hand wrapped around her chest, kneading her tender breasts until they were deformed, while his left hand erotically reached between her legs, thrusting in and out. The girl tilted her head, her eyes languid, breathing softly and moaning... No, was the girl being played with by the man in this lewd scene myself?

Chapter 29 Sigh

"No, Third Brother... let me go!" I shouted, suppressing my unbearable desire. I don't want this! How did things turn out like this? I struggled with all my might, but this only made the fingers in my honey hole go deeper, rubbing intensely! "Ah...let go...ah ah..." The intense pleasure in my body contrasted sharply with the shame of my inner defeat, causing my flower to contract tightly, trying to expel that wicked finger. Third Brother wanted to continue thrusting, but he was unable to move because of the gripping. He groaned in pain and suddenly squeezed my nipple, pushing his finger forcefully inside, almost touching the thin membrane. "Ah...no..." The pain and stimulation on my bud made me arch my back. My innocent petals could not withstand such a brutal attack. The flowing nectar had already run down my fair thighs with each thrust... My legs trembled uncontrollably. This dazzling pleasure almost made me lose myself, lost in his powerful yet gentle lust. I bit my lip, forcing myself to regain what little reason I had left. "Third Brother..." I gasped, "Please let me go..." He seemed deaf to my pleas, pressing his thumb against my nipple and twisting it forcefully. "Ah...ah ah..." A wave of intense pleasure washed over me, and I could no longer bear the stimulation. I groaned loudly, turning my head away with shame and hatred, biting his upper arm that was still wrapped around my chest...

"Hmm..." He groaned, squeezing my breast tightly. As his fingers loosened inside me, I forcefully pushed away his embrace and fell into the now-warm bathtub... He

was still panting heavily behind me. I lay on the edge of the tub, tears welling up in my eyes. Why did things turn out this way? Why was this fourteen-year-old body so easily aroused by this jade-like boy? Was I born so wanton? This pleasure was too much for me to bear!

“Baby…I’m sorry.” He groaned hoarsely, seemingly regaining his senses, and reached out with his hot hand.

I turned my shoulder away and muttered, “Third Brother, do you want my life?” As I asked those words, tears welled up in my eyes.

“Baby, you’re the one who wants my life.” He sighed, moved to face me, and squatted down across the bathtub, wanting to touch my face. But I turned my head away, so he could only tidy the messy hair behind my ear. Seeing my eyes were red, he kissed my hair affectionately and sighed again… “Is it because I’m Third Brother?” he asked abruptly, but strangely, I understood him. I silently shook my head… “Then why?” He cupped my face in his hands… his clear eyes fixed on me. Seeing the lingering desire in his eyes, I felt embarrassed. Unable to escape his control, I could only lower my eyes. “This is too… too lewd…” My face flushed red as I said this. “It’s like Third Brother is… playing with me. Ya Ya doesn’t like it!…” As I said this, I suddenly felt very wronged, and tears streamed down my face like broken pearls. When my third brother saw me crying, he panicked and tried to wipe my tears with his sleeve, only to find it soaked from our passion. He could only gently kiss away each glistening tear.

"Baby, don't cry, it hurts me to see you crying," someone comforted me, but I cried even harder, sobbing uncontrollably. All the grievances I'd suffered these past few days—my father was too busy to pay attention to me, my eldest brother had found me a husband with such an inappropriate personality and acted as if it were his right, and I'd been repeatedly bullied and humiliated by this scoundrel, even being brought to climax by him with just one finger… My pride! All the grievances burst forth, and I almost wailed, pounding my fist on his chest, cursing him for making me lose face. Third Brother froze, ignoring my flailing arms and legs. He grabbed my struggling little hands, pulled them down, kissed them gently, and placed them on his chest. He kissed my face repeatedly, whispering, "My darling, my darling is the best, I love you the most." He sighed softly and pulled me out of the water. I was so shocked I forgot to cry and stared at him with wide eyes. He kissed my forehead again and said, "The water's cold." He then pulled a robe from the screen and wrapped me in it.

I grabbed the collar of the robe with one hand and held onto the edge of the tub with the other for balance. My two small, white feet landed on his large foot. My nose was red and I was sniffling slightly. I looked down at this handsome young man, who, even in this disheveled state, remained gentle and elegant... He used both hands to wipe the water droplets off my body with the cotton robe... My eyes widened. This lecherous devil had touched my body all over through the robe again! As he brushed my calves, he knelt down in front of me. His robe swayed, slightly revealing my slender, straight legs. My face flushed, and I was about to pull the robe up to cover myself when he gently lifted it. His head was now at my lower abdomen, and a breath of hot air rushed towards my private parts. He… he… kissed me! Startled, I tried to pull my hips back, but the bathtub behind me blocked my way. He followed closely, hooking his arm around my thigh and opening his mouth to take my white flesh in. I almost moaned, but bit my lip to prevent it from escaping. After a few wet kisses, he extended his erotic tongue, slowly sliding it between my legs before withdrawing. I glared at him fiercely, my chest heaving, the soft, tingling sensation still lingering on my petals. But then he looked up at me with an innocent expression, even licking his lips with lingering pleasure… Looking at his expression, I couldn't bring myself to hate him.

"My darling is so sweet, Third Brother wants more." Seeing my face flush red and about to explode, he chuckled and scooped me up, carrying me to the bed. I panicked and clutched my robe, but he gently placed me under the covers, then covered me completely. Inside the covers, he removed my damp robe, and whether intentionally or unintentionally, his fingers brushed against my nipple… But seeing his serious expression, I couldn't stay angry. He got into bed too, but lay outside the covers, elbows on the pillow, head propped up in his hands. I closed my eyes and ignored him.

"Little sister, Third Brother apologizes for my recklessness today." My eyelashes trembled slightly. "Sigh...it's all because Third Brother is so greedy. Having my sweet cherry lips, he longs for the feel of my tender pink breasts; having my soft bosom, he wants to know how passionate my lovely little hole is; when my fingers are gripped tightly by my deadly tightness...he wants to taste the honeyed fluid that flows out...and even more, he wants to know what it feels like to put something even bigger inside..." I stared at him, my face flushed, eyes wide. This person...this person is apologizing? Who apologizes like this?

"Heh..." He smiled slyly at my expression and continued in a seductive, husky voice, "Little sister, go to sleep first. Third brother is going back. Otherwise, lying in the same bed with you... all I can think about is your naked, fair, flawless body under the covers. Third brother's mouth is so dry... I really want to transform into a wild beast and pounce on you... then devour you whole..." As he spoke, he grabbed my hand and began to suck on each of my wet fingers, a tingling sensation spreading from my fingertips to my lower abdomen... Hearing him utter such shameful, lewd words, my cheeks flushed, and my body felt hot... "Little sister, go to sleep, be good," he said, kissing my cherry lips again. I let out a soft sob, but he turned and left.

How annoying! How can anyone do this! How can I sleep?

Mei saw his master emerge from the young lady's room, his hair plastered to his forehead with sweat, his white undergarment soaked through at the chest and cuffs, his cheeks slightly flushed, and his usually cool and indifferent eyes now brimming with a bewitching aura, the emotions swirling within almost a dark red. His master, one hand on his lower abdomen, the other gently guiding him to remove his undergarments, his brow furrowed, yet a smile played on his lips.

"Master..." Mei murmured.

"Hmm?"

"This is bad for your health..."

"I know."

"Even without touching the young lady's body, there are many other ways to resolve this..." Mei's eyes flickered.

"I know," An Yang glanced at him, saying, "but that's my sister, not some other woman. How can you force her to do those things?"

"..." Then he'd suffer himself... For a man, doing this too many times could be deadly. Mei sighed helplessly; his master was utterly in love with the young lady.

"Sigh..." An Yang sighed, recalling how Bai Yaya, though using seduction to tempt him, had only succumbed to the allure of lust. Her inner struggle was obvious to everyone, and they couldn't help but feel saddened. Even if he forced himself on her, he feared he would only push her further away from her heart... It would be difficult to get her to willingly submit. "Heh..." She couldn't help but smile again. Whether she was tempted by lust or genuinely loved him, at least now she could treat him like a woman treating a man, not like a sister treating a brother.

"..." Mei looked at her master's expression, which alternated between distress and smiles, with a sense of frustration. Miss... do you know how determined and self-controlled this man is usually... now he's going crazy for you. 01-30
Chapter 30 Extra - Mei 1

I've been an orphan since I was little, ha, that's not surprising. Which of the Shadows of the Bai family isn't an orphan? My life hasn't had any major twists and turns. In fact, I don't care much about those things. Perhaps others might think the Bai family is truly benevolent, adopting poor orphans, providing them with food and clothing, allowing them to eke out a living in this chaotic world… Those naive children will spend their entire lives repaying them, but I just want to laugh… What kindness, what charity? It's nothing more than wanting to feed a few single-minded dogs. However, being a dog isn't easy; they need to kill each other. In the dog world, it's survival of the fittest; ability equals power, and everything is decided by strength. And this kind of trivial matter is a piece of cake for me…

I've never taken that rabble seriously. Ever since that life-or-death struggle I experienced at age seven, no one has dared to come within a meter of me. They're afraid of me. Have you ever seen someone kill while smiling?

This is all thanks to the murderer who wiped out my entire family back then, a frail-looking boy who slaughtered everyone in the village just to get a full meal. His melancholy eyes, his faintly smiling lips, everything about him seemed so delicate yet harbored such murderous intent. Crimson blood splattered on his face, yet he put it in his mouth, smacking his lips and tongue, as if savoring the taste of the blood. His weapon, thinking about it now, is so laughable—just a piece of firewood he picked up at random. My wet nurse hid me beside the chicken coop, quietly and calmly observing all of this, as if it had nothing to do with me, even though among those cruelly slaughtered in all sorts of bizarre ways were my father, mother, second aunt, third aunt, two not-so-close older brothers and sisters, and several other people I saw in the village almost every day. I was three years old, and strangely enough, I remember it clearly, and even stranger, I felt no fear. At three years old, I began to think—ha, don't laugh, I really did think—why wasn't I upset seeing such a scene like a living hell? At that time, I didn't know what fear was; I only knew that discomfort was discomfort.

Watching the boy devour a hot meal in the courtyard, amidst the gruesome corpses and gushing blood, I saw him finish the food he had cooked before his death. He wiped his mouth and let out a satisfied burp. My stomach rumbled. He looked up, his lazy gaze sweeping in my direction… What kind of person was he? What kind of eyes were those? His tattered clothes were now stained crimson with blood, his pale hair was whipped about by the wind, blood still stained his face, his eyes were shifty yet sharp, his thin body squatting on the ground so casual yet so arrogant… I saw he had noticed me and shakily stepped out. I touched my stomach; I was indeed hungry, because what I should have eaten was now in his stomach. He silently watched me, a half-eaten chicken leg placed at my feet on a plate, the china plate clattering as it spun around. I didn't take it, but just pointed to my nose and glanced at the corpses scattered on the ground. He actually understood what I meant. He said expressionlessly, "You wouldn't stop me from eating, so why would I kill you?" He pulled over a corpse beside him—my stepmother's large embroidered skirt—and sat her on it. He picked his teeth with a hairpin he'd casually pulled from her hair, and lazily said, "Your food smells so good, and you eat so much. I should have come to your house first; I wouldn't have had to go through all this trouble." I found it somewhat amusing; dressed so disheveled, yet so concerned about the dirt on the ground.

"They wouldn't have resisted, so you killed them too," I asked, pointing to my older brother and sister on the ground, their faces still showing fear even in death.

"Shouting and yelling, it's disgusting to watch," he replied casually.

"Oh, I saw you laughing the whole time. What's so great about killing people? Why didn't you smile at me?"

"My father said a smile is the best weapon to lull the enemy into a false sense of security, so I smiled. Do you want me to smile at you?" He laughed heartily, but I suddenly felt a chill run down my spine. "Your little brother is quite strange. He doesn't cry or make a fuss, and he's not afraid of me at all. He's even quite lucid when he asks questions. What, were these people not good to you before?" He casually pointed to the corpses on the ground.

"My wet nurse was very good to me," I said, somewhat annoyed. Who would feed me now? Sing me songs to lull me to sleep?

"Oh? Do you want revenge?"

"Revenge? What do you mean by revenge, little brother?" I asked, confused. Ignoring it, the immediate problem was more serious. "Little brother, take me with you. You killed everyone here. Aren't I going to starve to death?" I frowned.

"Tch, forget about revenge. You want me to take you along as a burden? No way." He seemed to disdain me. I felt even more annoyed, unsure of what to do next. Just then, a chaotic shouting came from the doorway, as if many people had arrived. He snorted and shouted, "I'm in a good mood now that I'm full. Stop making trouble, and I'll let you off the hook." A bunch of people rushed in through the doorway, each carrying machetes, hoes, rakes, and other farm tools. Only Uncle Wu, who usually slaughtered pigs, had a gleaming butcher's knife. Uncle Wu liked me a lot because I often begged my family to sell pork—well…because I loved meat.

"What are you doing there? Come here!" Sure enough, Uncle Wu was terrified when he saw me standing behind what they considered a murderous maniac.

"Huh?" Before I could react, the village chief's son yelled, and everyone rushed over, wildly brandishing their weapons—a chaotic mess… The boy had lost the firewood stick he'd been carrying during dinner and was now empty-handed. He darted left and right, weaving through the crowd. Wherever he went, someone would fall. His killing method was practiced; he grabbed the victim's neck with both hands, twisted it forcefully, and with a snap, the neck bone broke cleanly and swiftly. I searched his expression, and sure enough, there it was—that alluring, faint smile.

Just then, Uncle Da Wu rushed towards me in the chaos. Before he could reach me, his eyes widened, he froze, and slowly fell to the ground… I saw a gold hairpin embedded deep in the back of his neck, almost without a handle. This murder weapon was the one the boy used to pick his teeth… I squatted down in front of him, thinking that this hairpin belonged to my second mother and had now taken Uncle Da Wu's life; it seemed to hold great sentimental value… I tried to pull it out, but it wouldn't budge.

"Here," the boy said, walking over to me and taking it from me, tossing it to me. Those who had attacked him were all lying on the ground. He was truly ruthless; not even a single one was left barely alive. "I'm leaving," he said, carefully walking around the corpse and turning away. I wanted to call him back and take me with him, but my mouth smacked and I couldn't say anything. I looked down at the bloodstained hairpin in my hand, which seemed rather pointless, and tossed it to the ground. How troubled I was at three years old... What would I eat in the future?

This memory is too vivid, and the composure in it might be my own doing. Sigh, how could I expose my embarrassing side to you? But it's pretty much the same.

Speaking of which, after my group of Shadows went through that life-or-death struggle, they were all terrified of me. My seemingly harmless smile made everyone tremble. But I had no intention of using this to classify them as my subordinates. I'm used to being a loner, and having a few people with me makes me feel very constrained. As long as they don't bother me, I don't bother with others. Except for one person, who later became known as Kui. He was a real cool guy, stern and unsmiling. Hmph, I guess he's the one who's traumatized! His methods were on par with mine, enough to inspire awe in anyone, and those guys all acknowledged him as their leader. But I had no interest in competing with him; it was pointless. Anyway, if the young master of the Bai family were to challenge me, we'd both be a foregone conclusion, there was no competition. But would I truly submit to someone so readily? Let that person control my destiny, my life? What if he was a lecherous scoundrel? Would I lose control and kill him? Sigh, although I don't have the feminine appearance of that new brat who arrived when I was eight, I consider myself quite good-looking. Speaking of that brat, he was incredibly naive, so completely trusting of his master. Tch, what do you mean? It's his responsibility to teach you well; his care for you is just to avoid wasting a martial arts genius. That kind of soft-hearted personality… he'll suffer for it sooner or later. I can't help but wonder if the massacre of his own kind that awaits him will be exciting? Killing a brat with such pure eyes… wouldn't that be thrilling?

Several more years passed, so long I can't even remember. One day, I was lazily basking in the sun in the corner of the courtyard when my noisy master rushed in, saying that the third young master of the Bai family wanted to choose a shadow master. I was quite surprised. Weren't the young masters of the Bai family supposed to be sixteen or seventeen before they could choose a shadow master? I hadn't had enough of my carefree days yet. Anyway, with my current strength, no one could bully me. Why should I choose a master now? I couldn't help but look at the guy who had just come out of the house with three or four henchmen behind him. His cold gaze was also fixed on me, without any ripples. I chuckled. Still so boring. Why bother with all that? Let's see what kind of person this third young master is.

The old man continued, saying that this third young master was incredibly cowardly. Although he had studied at the forest farm for four or five years, he wasn't interested in this art. He was a refined but uncouth man. His skills were very poor, which was why he needed special protection. Breaking the precedent, he wanted to choose a shadow master now. For this reason, he would inevitably need to find a powerful protector. Having said that, he looked at me and the guy. Yes, to be honest, the old man only had the two of us to his name. I chuckled. Whether he wanted me to submit depended on whether the person had the ability. Although the guy didn't show any expression, his eyes conveyed the same meaning. His henchmen were quite nervous; of course, they didn't want their boss to be chosen… Without their boss, seeing me every day would be terrifying.

"Heh..." I smirked, thinking that if that guy got rid of him, it would be quite fun to play around with them all day. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a young man in a light blue robe turn and enter the courtyard. He must have heard my laughter earlier; he was looking at me with his clear eyes. My heart skipped a beat. What kind of person was he? What kind of eyes did he have?

Chapter 31 Extra - Charm 2

It's laughable, really. I only glanced at him, and I was instantly captivated.

Honestly, the light blue color really suited him. He stood there like a painting, or perhaps a fragrance—so ethereal, so unreal, so incredibly unreal. I couldn't help but rub my eyes, afraid it was just my imagination, afraid that in the blink of an eye… he would vanish. This boy had an angelic aura. His eyes and brows were alluring and captivating, radiating a faint smile, perhaps something else entirely, hard to describe… It was a feeling, a sense that when he exuded that aura, you felt yourself succumb, willing to do anything for him.

Only after following him for a long time did I realize that when we first met, he was still young, unable to conceal his presence, which explained the complex and contradictory feeling he evoked. Years later, when he appeared before others, that eerie, bewitching aura had completely vanished… leaving only a serene tranquility to inspire awe.

Speaking of which, when I first met this third young master of the Bai family, I was completely oblivious to all of the above. The aura he exuded was so familiar, so familiar that I compared him to the frail boy I remembered from when I was three. They didn't resemble each other in any way, their ages were vastly different, one lived in heaven, the other in hell, their temperaments were angelic and demonic… but that soft, fragile smile, that alluring yet serene gaze… I was stunned. I couldn't believe that the broken figure who had tormented and haunted my memories was willing to give me another chance. I made up my mind; this time, I absolutely couldn't let him abandon me like that again. It's funny to think about it now. Perhaps I'm just naturally heartless, feeling no resentment towards the murderer who brutally killed my entire family, but rather a strong admiration, even wanting to follow him without a second thought…

I gave the still-hesitating guy a flamboyant smile. This opportunity is mine. Seeing me get up, the followers visibly breathed a sigh of relief. I thought to myself with a touch of regret, "You guys are really lucky."

Only after following my master did I discover that this boy, the same age as me, wasn't as weak as the rumors suggested. Just when you think he's a peaceful white crane, you realize he's a cunning fox; a moment of relaxation could lead to utter ruin. This strange realization didn't affect my loyalty to him; instead, it brought with it a long-lost excitement. He didn't want to kill, not out of some laughable compassion, but because if the person wasn't worth dying, he wouldn't bother with them. If the person truly deserved to die, even though there were a thousand ways to end it, he would let them live, torment them in agony, until they finally decided to repent. Then, he would ask them with great patience and kindness, "Do you regret it?"

"Yes, I regret it."

"Is it too late?"

"Yes, but I'm willing to spend my whole life making amends."

"Then you must already know where you went wrong."

"Yes, killing solves nothing. It only widens the pain."

"Hmm…you certainly understand. However, you haven't paid the price for your actions."

"Price? Isn't all my long repentance and suffering a price?"

"Your price is worthless to the dead."

"You…what do you mean? What do you want?"

"Heh, I don't want anything, but you should apologize to them in person."

"Go to the memorial tablet to repent? I've already gone secretly."

"No, go to hell."

"Why?…I…I've already repented!"

"Heh, you…"

"Here~~"

"Send him away."

"You...you...you said killing doesn't solve problems!!"

"I'm not solving problems, I'm just putting an end to it."

"Ha, Master...he talks more than I do." My thin willow-leaf knife lightly sliced across his throat, not too deep, not too shallow, not too light, not too heavy. Just enough so that he could clearly feel his blood drying up...and then, death.

"This time the control was good, no blood splattered on your clothes. Let's go."

"Hehe, Master is right, my knife technique is fast-paced, the most perfect is 'the blade leaves only a thin red mark, and after a while, the blood gushes out,' by then we'd be far away, even if the wound is on the neck, a place with a lot of blood flow, it won't stain our clothes. I'll follow Master's teachings." I smiled insincerely, he just smiled faintly, "But Mei still likes that passion of personally feeling the blood spurt out...the passion of the last moment of life~" He shook his head as if helpless, and walked away. I hurried after him… but disappeared into the woods. From afar, I could only see him, a solitary figure, drifting aimlessly.

I remembered that year, when my master and the young masters from the forest farm went home for the Mid-Autumn Festival, he idly returned to this Bai mansion, a place with less-than-pleasant memories. I was once that elusive shadow, cough, and I still am now. But I played a trick, disguising myself as a personal servant and sneaking into the main hall. My master usually wouldn't mind such idle play, just a smile, not paying much attention. However, the real servant seemed to have a lot of grievances against me, secretly resenting that I had taken his job. Because of me, my master rarely needed servants anymore; I helped with anything I could. After all, our relationship in this life was more trustworthy than that of blood brothers. I grinned at the servant, only to find, to my dismay, that the guy wasn't afraid and even glared at me. I couldn't help but wonder, if I reached out and grabbed his neck, the moment he shrank back... would he regret laughing like that? Just as I was hatching this mischievous plan, my master called me "Mei." I slurred, straightened my hat, and stopped fooling around; it was my master warning me.

I was almost yawning, watching the various little performances. This matchmaking banquet for the eldest son of the Bai family... utterly boring. Just as I was about to fall asleep, a small pink and white figure walked past me. A sweet fragrance swept past me, instantly rousing me. I saw her strike a pose with an air of expertise, her delicate hands resting on the strings... her youthful face behaving like an adult's, making me want to burst out laughing. Then I heard her sing, "The autumn wind is clear, the autumn moon is bright, fallen leaves gather and scatter, crows perch and are startled again, when will we meet again? This time, this night, my heart is filled with unbearable longing." I was stunned. In this scene, such a clear voice spoke of such tender feelings... I couldn't help but scrutinize the girl's face. Her delicate face, no bigger than a palm, was rosy, her large, clear eyes were sparkling, and her small, cherry-red lips were pink and glistening. What was most striking was the mixture of maturity and childlike charm. She was clearly just a teenager, yet her posture when walking and talking was so confident, and her expression when singing was full of emotion? This girl wasn't stunningly beautiful, but she was unbelievably interesting. I couldn't help but glance at my master. I wondered whose daughter she was. I hoped that the young master hadn't taken a liking to her. She would be a perfect match for our third young master. I couldn't help but lean closer to my master and ask, "Master, whose girl is this? It's too much of an old cow eating young grass for the young master. Why don't we take her and prepare a wife for you?" I thought my words were frivolous, but certainly not outrageous. To my surprise, my master turned around and gave me a strange look, saying something that left me speechless for a long time: "She's my sister."

Later, my master's sister, cough, the fifth young lady of the Bai family's teacher, asked her what she had just sung. After listening, she asked if there was more to the song. I couldn't help but hold my breath and eavesdrop. That soft voice drifted to my ears: "Entering the gate of longing, you know the bitterness of longing. Long longing, long remembrance; short longing, endless longing. If I had known it would bind my heart so, I would rather we had never met." Obviously, my master had heard it too. He turned to look at her in surprise, his expression unreadable. I was originally someone who had nothing to do with poetry and songs, but I gradually picked it up after following my master, and I definitely had never heard this song before. How could that young girl know the meaning of "longing for someone" and write such tender and poignant verses? Who wrote them? Where did she hear them from? Did she truly understand the emotions expressed within?

Heh, it's funny, this was merely my first impression of the Fifth Miss Bai. This Mid-Autumn Festival trip home quickly came to an end, and I thought things would end there… I could never have imagined that this was the foreshadowing of my master's life. That little vixen—to this day, I only call her "little vixen" in my heart, but I call her "Fifth Miss" to her face. That little vixen's innocent appearance, the fleeting glints of intelligence in her eyes, her inexplicably sexy charm—all these would combine to form a poison, a poison that would lead to utter ruin. My master ultimately succumbed, while whether the others could escape depended on luck. Sigh, if I had risked my life to kill her the first time we met, would everyone's lives have returned to normal?

Heh, thinking about it is pointless; anyway, things have come to this. Besides, it's quite interesting...

Chapter 32 Extra - Charm 3

"I don't know why, but when Ya Ya touched brother like that, brother felt incredibly good. How about another time, little sister?"

Eavesdropping on the carriage roof, I almost burst out laughing when I heard my master say that. As expected of my master, even his abduction is so profound! ~ Only the little vixen in his arms would believe such absurd statements.

After dinner, I noticed curiosity and amusement in my master's eyes. Although since returning to the manor and being with Young Master Meng, my master's behavior seemed more purposeful. Who knew that this purpose, which had caused him so much trouble, was, today I confirmed, his own sister. I must get to the bottom of this. My master finally couldn't stand my resentful wandering around the room and asked, "What do you want to say?"

"Master, Fifth Miss..." I was interrupted before I could finish, but I didn't care, wanting to get the inside story quickly. Although his expression later seemed doubtful, as if he refused to acknowledge his feelings for his own sister. But having served him for so many years, how could I not see it? My master is such a detached and indifferent person, one could say he doesn't care about anything. When has he ever been troubled by anything? If he were truly heartless, why would he bother to ponder such things? To be honest, I'm quite looking forward to the possibility of something happening between my master and his sister, and I don't think it's a big deal. The little vixen is quite interesting, worthy of a man's affection. So what if they're siblings? It only shows how close and pure their relationship is, how pure their bloodline is. Although my master isn't the kind of person who fears worldly etiquette, I still couldn't help but say, "Every decision my master makes is beyond question in my eyes! In my heart, my master has the appearance and wisdom of an immortal." These words were flattering, but they were the truth. I have never seen anyone more wise than my master.

"Heh, an immortal?" My master's eyes were shrouded in a wicked light... as if he thought I was telling a joke, something so ironic. …I was speechless. My master's expression always sent chills down my spine; it always seemed to foreshadow something bad about to happen.

"No, no…" An ambiguous atmosphere permeated the dark bedchamber, each suppressed, broken breath incredibly delicate. Suddenly, my mouth went dry… My master beside her must be dozens of times more uncomfortable than I was. "No, Third Brother… Ah, you can't touch there… um…" Where did he touch her? The little vixen cried out weakly and pitifully, her cries making my heart ache and my whole body go numb. What an idiot! Doesn't she know that this only fuels a man's destructive desires? I forced myself to stay alert, scanning my surroundings for any unusual activity to divert the tension from the deadly erotic trap. It's laughable, really. I consider myself a heartless person, yet today they've stirred up such arousal. Even more lewd scenes during missions usually don't affect me at all. What's wrong with me now? Could it be… incest between siblings that excites me so much? My lord, my lord…hehe, you're so wicked~ How does it feel to tease your own sister? For the first time, I feel that being a shadow is really damn unlucky, even more pitiful than being a eunuch in the palace. Although eunuchs accompany the emperor every day, they've lost that thing, so it's not too bad, but I'm a living, breathing, healthy man~! Thinking that my lord is even more unbearable now, I suddenly feel much better, and even have a feeling of schadenfreude…Ahahaha~ Suddenly there was a noise upstairs. I lightly climbed to the second floor. It turned out that the little rascal prince was about to take his leave. After lingering for a while, the boy mentioned the little vixen again, "Brother Haolei, does Little Wu'er hate me? She left with Third Brother Bai after only sitting for a short while today." I rolled my eyes like crazy. That pitiful, abandoned little white rabbit expression is exactly like that little rascal Bai Xingzhi in the forest!

"Your Highness is overthinking it. It's probably just my sister's first time drinking such strong liquor, and she can't hold her liquor. I'll respectfully escort Your Highness back."

Can't hold her liquor? Do you know what she's doing downstairs right now? After seeing Prince Yue off, the eldest son of the Bai family pondered for a while before calling for someone to check on his sister's condition. Oh no, that little vixen must be half-undressed and sprawled beneath my master, a pool of spring water. I can't let them see this. I nimbly returned to the ground floor.

"Hmm...okay, okay..." Just as I approached, I heard the little vixen's suppressed, shy whispers, the unspoken meaning practically saying, "Come on!" It was truly tempting... "Ah..." This was clearly a moan of pleasure after being satisfied... I adjusted my breathing and gave the secret signal that only my master and I understood. Although I felt bad about interrupting their intimate moment, this place, though exciting, was not a place to linger. Of course, the master heard the signal. Who would have thought that instead of letting the little vixen go, he would escalate his actions… “My darling is so wet, can brother come in?” It was the first time I’d heard the master speak such erotic and provocative words in such a hoarse, restrained voice… Ugh, so wet… I couldn’t bear to listen anymore. I went to where the maids were going downstairs and saw them going into each room to look for someone. I couldn’t help but think of just knocking one of them unconscious and dragging her to bed…

Back at the Bai residence, the master was summoned for questioning by the eldest young master. With that shrewd businessman’s sharp eyes, how could he be blind to the lewd atmosphere when the master carried the little vixen out? But I was tasked with taking care of the little vixen, so I couldn’t go along to see what they were saying.

Bearing the light, fragrant, and sweet weight of her on my arm, I felt like I was holding a hot potato. This was the master’s own sister, his woman. I absolutely mustn’t have any fantasies about her! So I rushed into her room, gently placed her on the bed, and hesitated before turning to leave. I sighed, turned back to carefully tuck her in, opened the window, and leaped out. I sat cross-legged on the tree trunk by her window, watching her, somewhat puzzled. Why did all the shadows prefer to use windows instead of doors? Was there no rule? Was it perhaps cooler? I rambled on, determined not to think about anything more perplexing or inexplicable… like… cough cough, stop! Ugh, why do they prefer windows? It's so puzzling! The strange silence between Master and the little demon girl after that night's madness. Not only were there no more explicit scenes, but even their usual kisses and caresses had decreased significantly. I watched Master laughing and joking in front of her, still the same gentle and considerate lover, cough, the same good brother! Behind his back, he often frowned, a sign that something was on his mind, but I couldn't bear to ask. I knew without asking that it was probably because the little vixen couldn't get past that final hurdle. I really couldn't understand it. They'd already been almost completely honest with each other, so what was there to hesitate about? The master was easy to understand; he was practically obsessed with her. Even if someone asked for the moon, he'd kill to get it (- -~that's just your opinion, isn't it...when did Anyang become so violent?). But the little vixen...what was she hesitating about? I really wanted to shake her awake. This man, who was usually so aloof that no one was worthy of his presence, was willing to marry his beloved to another just to have you. He cared about your feelings and wouldn't force you to do anything, preferring to suffer himself rather than show any sorrow in front of you. Did he know how much he cared about you? You...do you even know?

Beside our master, we were both lost in our own thoughts. I sighed softly, which only made our master laugh and cry at the same time.

"Mei, you sighed? Did I hear that right? That's quite rare."

"Master, don't laugh at me. Mei is just worried about you, isn't she?" I gave him a resentful look. I was indignant for you, and he was laughing at me? How heartless!

"Oh?" Our master raised an eyebrow, looking completely calm.

"It's all because of Fifth Miss. She's really tormenting me! If I were you, Master, I'd just knock her out and elope. Why bother with all that? Why marry Bai Mengzhi? Find a place where nobody knows you and live a much more comfortable life."

"Heh, you've always been so reckless. Elopement? How could you even say that?" He chuckled softly. A bluff! He clearly thought it was a brilliant idea! "I don't care, I'm just afraid... I'm afraid my little sister still can't let go..." Before I could say anything, someone came to report that Prince Yue had arrived. Here again? This Prince Yue has been causing trouble countless times these past few days, not seeing Miss even once. He's really persistent... I couldn't help but look at my master. He had no expression, but his eyes held a hint of coldness. Heh heh, others might not notice, but how could I not?

Hiding wasn't an option, so Miss, knowing this, reluctantly said, "Please invite Prince Yue over." Miss and master prepared to greet this uninvited guest, while I slipped away to watch the show. Although Prince Yue was handsome, his behavior was far too excessive.

"This humble woman greets Your Highness, may Your Highness be well and blessed," Miss said meekly. My master remained seated, sipping tea, without uttering a sound. Prince Yue seemed to completely ignore his master, heading straight for the young lady.

"Little Wu'er, I heard from Brother Hao Lei that you caught a cold on the boat that day and haven't been feeling well. I've been very worried about you, coming to visit every day but not being able to see you, it's truly torturous." He then mimicked Xi Shi clutching her heart… as if she had suffered a great injury… He continued, "Little Wu'er, I searched through Father's pharmacy and brought back this thousand-year-old ginseng, the snow lotus of the Cold Mountain, and the ten-thousand-year-old lingzhi… See if you can use any of it, you must get better." With that, he waved his hand, and a group of maids followed, flowing in and standing in a grand line, all opening the red velvet boxes they carried… I rolled my eyes. This guy's really going all out to woo her! Does he think the young lady won't live much longer? …

The little demon girl opened her mouth wide, still holding a teacup, looking at Prince Yue with a strange expression, stammering, “You…did your mother throw you away when she gave birth to you and raise the placenta instead? Huh?” She…raised the placenta? Seeing my master's arm tremble, almost spilling the tea…I also swayed, nearly falling…The room was completely silent…Suddenly, laughter erupted from outside the door…It was the eldest young master.

Chapter 33 Spring Dream

Looking at this room full of top-grade tonics, I was speechless. Did my older brother say I had a terminal illness and was about to die? That's terrifying! Even if I had a minor cold, it wouldn't warrant bringing out thousand-year-old ginseng or ten-thousand-year-old lingzhi. Are the imperial family members all this precious? “You…did your mother throw you away when she gave birth to you and raise the placenta instead? Huh?” Nonsense!

"..." He blinked his innocent eyes, "Little Wu'er... I..."

"Hahaha, Your Highness has wasted your efforts this time. Such a valuable gift, my sister is probably not worthy of receiving it." My elder brother strode in, in high spirits, laughing without any regard for appearances.

"Your Highness, I am still recovering from a serious illness and feel very tired. I feel exhausted after talking to you for a while..." I pretended to be weak and rubbed my forehead.

"Alright... Little Wu needs to rest more. I'll go back now and come see you another day." He immediately replied, showing some understanding. Then he asked, "And this thing..."

"Your Highness's kindness is appreciated. I'll take it back to your residence on your behalf."

"How can that be? It's for Little Wu to nourish her body."

"Then I'll accept it." After seeing the prince out, I glanced at my eldest brother and asked, "Big brother, where did you find such a living god? If I weren't your own sister, you would definitely think that you have a grudge against me and that's why you're tormenting me like this."

"Although Prince Yue doesn't know what's important, he's still a very good person. Especially towards his little sister..."

"Spare me!" I cried out.

"Heh," my third brother, who had been watching the show from the sidelines, suddenly laughed and asked, "So, little sister doesn't like being overly attentive."

"That's going too far..."

In the past two days, my third brother had been very peaceful with me, without any sneak attacks or seduction. I knew he wanted to give me some time; pushing too hard might backfire. But thinking about those two outbursts a few days ago… I still blushed. If I were to marry one of them, Meng Zhi or Xing Zhi, I wonder how we would get along? Ugh, they've brainwashed me; I'm actually thinking about marriage!!

After lunch, I returned to my room and couldn't help but feel sleepy, drifting off to sleep…

“Mmm…” In my dream, my third brother gently kissed me. This guy is getting more and more naughty; he captured my cherry lips and sucked on them repeatedly. His wicked hands slipped under the covers and grabbed my two already erect nipples, kneading them lightly and heavily. His hair slid down my neck, tickling me. I shook my head to try and get away, but he sucked on my earlobe. “Mmm…” I groaned from the tickling, and his two large hands skillfully unbuttoned my shirt and slipped inside… My third brother is so annoying, coming to my room in broad daylight to tease me! His mouth licked down my ear, making me feel incredibly itchy and tingly. It moved past my neck and collarbone to my open chest, and the moment he sucked on it forcefully, I cried out, "Ah... Third Brother..." I felt him pause, but he kneaded my breasts even harder, sucking back and forth between them. I was already panting heavily... even my lower body felt a sweet sensation. Since it was just a dream, I didn't care about being reserved... I raised my arms and hugged his large head rubbing against my chest, arching my back and thrusting forward... Seeing my enthusiasm, An Yang took off his shoes, climbed onto the bed, and slipped under the covers. My clothes slipped off like flower petals onto the floor, and soon I was only left with my undergarments. The loose inner robe hung askew on either side, revealing two beautiful, tender breasts and a large expanse of smooth, jade-like abdomen. Only the belt still bound the lower half of my legs. My third brother, draped in a blanket, was on top of me, one knee pressed between my tightly closed legs, gently against my vulva… “Mmm…” I shuddered, it was so stimulating. Seeing my moan, he became even more excited, his wicked knee thrusting against my already wet vulva, his large hands roaming over my body. “Ah…no…” I didn’t know when he had already removed my underwear, and he pulled his knee away, inserting a thick finger…oh…it was his thumb! Because it was constantly rubbing against my nectar and smearing it on my petals, his body slid down, licking and sucking my restless lower abdomen. I breathed softly, and then... finally came to my little pearl. He first blew a breath of hot air on it, and I nervously and expectantly contracted my flower hole... He groaned, and his thumb inside my body maliciously scratched a few more times. I breathed even more heavily, and at this moment, his wet and hot mouth took my little pearl into his mouth... licking it in circles... "Ah... ahhh... no..." I groaned loudly, and couldn't help but twist my body... unable to bear such pleasure. He withdrew his fingers, and the emptiness immediately followed. I frowned and whimpered in protest. He chuckled softly, seemingly saying something I couldn't quite make out, something like, "Greedy little thing..." His lips and tongue moved to where my fingers had been, teasing the flowing fluid... A shocking stimulation washed over me. I ran my fingers through his hair, writhing restlessly in my lower body. God... I could feel Third Brother's slippery tongue moving in and out of my little cave... Waves of tingling pleasure climbed up my back... My legs tensed uncontrollably, and my long, slender thighs snaked out from under his, rubbing against his trousers... He pulled away from my lips and tongue with an "Oh..." and began sucking even more intensely. "Mmm... Ya Ya... Ya Ya is uncomfortable... Third Brother..." My flower cave contracted incessantly, stinging with desire... I so wished he would fill me up right now... God... Is lovemaking in dreams this breathtaking? He inserted two fingers into my already wet little hole... thrusting in and out... while his mouth sucked hard on my little pearl, the feeling of being stretched open was both swollen and stimulating, "I want it... give it to Ya Ya, okay... mmm..." In my dream, I didn't care about being reserved. I shamelessly begged An Yang for pleasure, only to feel him temporarily leave my flower cave, then hook my thigh, which was still wrapped around his lap, onto his waist, kneeling up. The rustling sound of him undressing filled the air. "Ah..." A fiery thing, many times thicker than a finger, bounced against the outside of my flower cave, burning me with heat... He held his hot penis, rubbing it against the wetness at the entrance of my flower cave... making a squelching sound, making my cheeks burn... God, I must have leaked so much... Third Brother let out a muffled groan, gently touching the entrance of my flower cave with his erect penis... as if he were doing something incredibly painful... I twisted my lower body relentlessly, letting out whimpering moans, my jade legs hooking around his strong waist as he thrust heavily into me... "Ah... take me..." I contracted in waves of stimulation, he had already inserted half of his head, it hurt and stimulated at the same time... Ugh... so full...

"Oh... Third Brother!!" he growled. Huh? What does it mean when the third brother calls the third brother "Lao San"?

Bai Anyang pushed open the door and was greeted by this lewd scene.

The girl lay on the bed, her cheeks flushed and her clothes disheveled, revealing her alluring white breasts, two small red plums standing proudly on her snowy peaks... A loosely tied, irresponsible belt cinched her waist, as only this belt was visible on her body, the hem of her robe had slipped to the sides, and the girl's fair legs were spread wide, wrapped around the waist of the boy kneeling between them, her two beautiful little hands gripping the sheets beneath her tightly... Anyang gasped as he approached, her incomparably beautiful, wet flower-like opening struggling to envelop a small part of the boy's hot iron hardness, their point of connection overflowing with lustful fluids, soaking the sheets... Anyang felt a surge of heat in his lower abdomen, wishing he were the one inside her right now...

"You used drugs again?" he glanced at the beautiful boy, who was covered in sweat.

"It's just a sleeping potion! It keeps her from waking up for a while, containing only a tiny bit of aphrodisiac." The boy said aggrievedly, still feeling numb all over from the tight contractions of the girl beneath him.

"Did you taste the bitterness?" An Yang asked, seeing how hard he was trying to hold back.

"Alright, Third Brother, yes, yes, yes... I shouldn't have used such a despicable method... I just missed her so much." He then rolled his eyes and smiled seductively, "Did you hear that just now? She kept calling me Third Brother... I wonder what you did to her... Oh, baby, you're killing me..." The boy couldn't help but slightly thrust his body, and his petals were pushed in a little... "God... She's so small! Third Brother, look, if I just rush in like this, I'll definitely squeeze her poor petals in... Ah... Don't shrink back..." The boy patiently pinched the girl's thigh... controlling himself from actually rushing into this sweet forbidden land.

"Still playing?" Bai Mengzhi felt a surge of desire in his lower abdomen at the sight of the lewd scene, especially since the girl beneath him was Bai Yaya…

"Then why aren't you helping?"

Bai Anyang pulled apart the girl's tender legs, which were tightly wrapped around the boy's waist, and gently lifted them up, freeing them from the boy's control. The boy let out a heavy groan, and the girl's unobstructed flower cave immediately gushed out even more abundant nectar… "Ugh… Third Brother…" The girl's soft voice was on his neck, and Bai Anyang's heart softened. He gazed deeply at her flushed face and lovingly kissed her cherry lips… His darling, did she still call out his name in another man's arms?

"Tch, my heart is wounded…" the enchantress comforted him, teasing his own desire.

"Do you have an antidote for this incense?"

"It's just incense, not poison… there's no antidote."

"Then give her some of your blood to drink." This enchantress's blood was a very precious antidote.

"Hey, An Yang, are you even being reasonable? My blood mixed with aphrodisiacs should only make the effects stronger! I already told you the little princess wasn't poisoned!"

"Then what are we going to do about this?"

"Nothing, this sleeping potion only lasts a moment, it won't harm the body... it's no big deal." "

..." Bai An Yang was helpless... Compared to him, how rational he was, how praiseworthy he was... An Yang put the girl down on the bed, pulled his clothes up to cover his exposed skin, and then took a handkerchief to wipe the moisture from the girl's petals. Each touch elicited a soft cry from the girl. Swallowing, An Yang wiped the thin layer of sweat from his forehead... He couldn't help but glance at the person kneeling beside him. Well done!

Chapter 34 Going Home

Speaking of which, spring dreams really leave no trace...

Could it be that Third Brother hasn't been making any big moves lately, and I'm starting to crave him? No way! How embarrassing… I woke up close to dinnertime. I checked my clothes; the blankets were still on, and everything seemed normal, except for this inexplicable heat… Waaah, I'm such a hypocrite! I absolutely can't let my third brother know this, or he'll think I crave him and he'll take advantage of me even more! I took a step, and after regaining my balance, I instinctively grabbed the bed curtains, hunching over and panting. Good heavens… this small movement was incredibly arousing! I suppressed the tingling pleasure and moved to the dressing mirror, slowly calming the turmoil within me. I gazed at the woman in the mirror: her eyes were moist, her cheeks flushed, her slightly parted lips panting softly, her disheveled hair a picture of someone just waking up from a spring nap. I let out a soft moan and clutched my burning cheeks. I have to keep my distance from Bai Anyang!!! I don't want to wake up every day like this, so sexually frustrated! The door creaked open, and I could see it clearly in the mirror. Bai Mengzhi's large head peeked in! Huh? I think I just dreamt about him too! Oh no… what kind of dream was this? A threesome? Did I have precognitive abilities when I transmigrated? How come he appeared right after I dreamt about him?? I quickly straightened my hair and composed myself, turning around.

"Brother Mengzhi? Ya Ya must be mistaken, right? What are you doing in the capital?"

"Sigh… Little princess hasn't seen her cousin in so long, not at all surprised… how can your cousin bear this?" He leaned casually against the door, watching me comb my hair.

"Little sister, are you awake? You've been sleeping for so long, come and have some water." My third brother's voice came from the outer room. I was indeed thirsty, and as I straightened my clothes, Mengzhi helped me over.

"My little princess, you're so heartbreaking. I finally found an excuse to come see you, but you weren't even happy enough to throw yourself into your cousin's arms... Don't you miss your cousin at all?" He leaned against the coffee table, arms crossed, his beautiful face beaming with a smile, his eyes shining brightly as if they were blessed.

I gulped down my warm tea and replied dismissively, "Yes, I miss you terribly. Where's my Qing? Didn't she come?" I looked around, but there was no sign of her. Meng Zhidu had come; there was no reason for him to stay home with my second uncle. That was strange.

"Hey... if there were another person accompanying you to fetch your beauty, it wouldn't show how much I've missed you. Didn't I tell you that my little darling brought a craftsman and came by herself? Haha!" I suppressed the urge to glare at him and looked up at my third brother, who was usually more normal, and asked, "Are you taking me back?"

“Father didn’t say he was sending us back.” Bai Mengzhi grinned shamelessly. Third Brother glanced at Bai Mengzhi and then said to me, “Little sister, it’s like this. Father and Second Uncle met the carving craftsmen at Eldest Brother’s place and thought the designs were very intricate and exquisite. So they sent someone to ask the carpenters at home to come and exchange ideas and improve their skills. Also, since they’ve already set a wedding date with Eldest Brother, probably in late spring or early summer, the family should start preparing. Father and Second Uncle can’t go back yet, and Third Uncle is busy with his business at home. He was worried he wouldn’t be able to handle everything, so he asked Mengshang Forest Farm to ask your Second and Fourth Brothers to come back early to help with the preparations. Who would have thought that this guy would come here with a few craftsmen…”

“Tch, they said they should go home, but who wouldn’t be eager to go home except your Second Brother…” Third Brother was interrupted before he could finish. But I couldn’t care less about their undercurrents. Second and Fourth Brothers are coming back? Fourth Brother is coming back? Little Fourth is coming back? " Oh my god...

" I couldn't help but confirm again, "Brother Mengzhi, you said you came... to take... me... back...?"

"Yes, your second brother sent word that he's breaking through some unknown level of divine skill and won't be back for the time being. He might not come down the mountain until Haolei's wedding; my younger brother doesn't care about anything, it's good enough that he can take care of himself, let alone help? Your fourth brother is also not young anymore, so we should ask Anyang to take charge of the overall situation. As for the little princess, would she like to go back with us? It must be quite boring being watched by a few old men here..." He winked at me, and for the first time, I felt that what he said was so pleasing to the ear! I liked it!

"Yes, Ya Ya is going back with Third Brother and Brother Mengzhi! When are we leaving?" My heart leaped with joy... It's been so long... 6 or 7 years...

"I'm afraid Father will be too busy, so let's do it as soon as possible." Mengzhi and Anyang exchanged a calm glance and said lightly.

"Hmm! Hmm!" I patted Bai Mengzhi's shoulder hard. "Big cousin, I didn't realize you were so responsible! A real man!" This guy looks so pleasing to the eye today, I really want to hug him and give him a kiss. "Third Uncle is so pitiful, hurry up and eat! Ah, I'm hungry, let's go eat first." In a great mood, I swaggered out of the room first. Huh? I forgot to wear my coat. I was just about to go back to get it when something big suddenly covered my head, pressing my hair down! I struggled to get out and saw that it was my outer robe. "Hmm, very good, very timely, but 'Mei!!! You're a shadow guard, not a ghost!! Would it kill you to hand it to me yourself???'" A few crows fluttered by in perfect unison...

"...You're probably right, she's definitely going back. I just don't know if it's for Lao Si or Xingzhi."

"Heh, no point in thinking too much, we'll know when the time comes..."

"If it's Xingzhi..."

"What, you're going to give it to him?"

"How could I? If it's Xingzhi, it'll be more troublesome...hehe..."

"Heh, a sibling rivalry..."

"Hey~ don't talk like you brothers don't fight, okay?" "

..."

"Ha...this is the first time I've seen you speechless after being shut down by me~ I admit it."

"Heh, do you think those two will already be waiting at the door when we get home?"

"Hmm...based on the time I arrived, they'll probably be home by the time I get here."

"..."

"..."

"Heh, no point in thinking too much, let's deal with it as it comes. If possible, don't let your Xingzhi cause any trouble."

"...I also want your fourth brother to stay away from her!"

On the first day, I was incredibly excited in the carriage, singing non-stop! If there had been more space, I probably would have sung and danced.

"Only you can take me to the West to retrieve the scriptures~~~ Only you can kill demons and monsters~~~ Only you can protect me! No need for those clam spirits and crab spirits to

dap me!

Only you are so powerful, only you~ ... " Wouldn't it be so convenient to make someone lose their soul at first glance?" Sitting next to me was a guy even more beautiful than myself, and I couldn't help but gleam with malice… A man who's more beautiful than a flower, does he want women to die?

"Cousin, you've gone to so much trouble to see him?" Bai Mengzhi looked at me with a mournful expression, and my face flushed red…

"You've been acting strangely for two days, only calming down today. Are you nervous about seeing him later?" he asked, leaning closer. I protested shyly and stammeringly like a young wife whose secrets had been exposed…

"Cousin, you're so jealous! Cousin is so biased!" He narrowed his phoenix eyes, tightly gripping my two small hands, his burning gaze fixed on me. I lowered my head, not daring to look at him… I'd been exposed! How embarrassing!! He added, not without jealousy, "Xingzhi is so lucky!" Huh?

"Huh? Xingzhi?" The topic suddenly shifted to what? I didn't react for a moment… staring blankly at him. To my surprise, he simply turned his head and smiled at Third Brother. Third Brother, equally bewildered, nodded at him, glanced at me with an indifferent look, and then closed his eyes. Mengzhi also released my hand, crossed her arms, leaned back against the carriage wall, and closed her eyes to rest.

What? What's going on? I was still frozen in the position Mengzhi had been holding my hand. What were Third Brother and Mengzhi doing? Why was my brain suddenly short-circuiting, unable to keep up with their train of thought? Then, belatedly, I suddenly wanted to slap myself! These two were clearly teaming up to find out who I wanted to see! Ahhhhhh, I can't fight them! Waaaaaah… Little Fourth, save me.

As if hearing my call, the carriage swayed and suddenly stopped, the driver calling out to the horses. I heard the driver shout in surprise, "Fourth Young Master!" Upon hearing this, I jumped up and flung open the curtain. I froze.

In the pure white world of swirling snow, a young man in white stood before me. Strands of hair, ruffled by the wind, brushed against his handsome face, his eyes and brows brimming with smiles. My breath caught in my throat, and I remained staring at him, still holding the carriage curtain open. Six years, no, perhaps longer. It had been so long since I'd seen him. A thousand words seemed to be on my mind, yet I couldn't recall a single one. He slowly raised his arm, extending it towards me. As if bewitched, I placed my fingers in his warm palm. He pulled me close, and I fell into his familiar embrace.

"Ya…" His soft call, like a sigh, brushed against my ear… Suddenly, he lifted me by the armpits and spun me around rapidly. His clear laughter echoed across the silvery-white earth, mingling with mine. My little 4, you've finally returned. I've missed you so much.

Chapter 35, January 30th: Little

4 held me up like that, our eyes met, snowflakes danced in the air, and my heart suddenly felt so full. So… so I had been waiting for him all along. I reached out and stroked his cheek, and he slowly lowered me. I kissed his beautiful eyes, smiling and murmuring, “I missed you…” He tightened his arms, lifted his cloak to encircle my head, and, with his back to the carriage, trapped me in his embrace, his passionate lips pressing against mine. I tilted my head back, basking in this incredibly sweet intimacy, and couldn't help but smile. He chuckled softly against my lips, “Silly girl…” I didn't answer, only chuckled softly.

“Ya Ya, Xingzhi missed you terribly too… Xingzhi wants a hug and a kiss too…” A wronged voice came, and my lips twitched as I turned my head. Xingzhi was right behind us? I hadn't even seen him… God, that look in his eyes. Suddenly, I remembered that we were being all lovey-dovey, and there seemed to be quite a few spectators around… I peeked out from Xiao 4's shoulder and looked around. Mengzhi had already gotten off the carriage, arms crossed, leaning against the side with a strange smile. Third Brother hadn't gotten off; the curtain blocked his expression. I turned my head to look at Xingzhi. He was pouting slightly, his red lips twitching, looking back and forth between me and Xiao 4 with dissatisfaction.

“Hehehehe… Xingzhi’s here too! It’s been so many years, let your sister have a good look at you.” I wanted to go over, but Xiao 4 wouldn’t let go of my waist. I tried to pull away slightly, but couldn’t. I glared at him and twisted his waist. He yelled exaggeratedly and ignored me! I went over, intending to pat Xingzhi’s head, but he had grown a whole head taller than me in the past few years. Helpless, I could only pat his shoulder instead…

“Ya Ya always forgets. Xingzhi is several months older than you—he’s your older brother!” Seeing his pouty lips, rosy cheeks, and fluttering round eyes, he was incredibly cute. I chuckled and pinched his soft cheek. "Xingzhi misses Yaya so much, even more than Brother Zhanfeng!" He pulled me close and grinned at Xiao Si with a show of force.

"Hey... what are you doing!" I pushed him away. This kid... he chuckled.

"So, if Xingzhi calls me 'sister,' Yaya will give me a hug?" He nestled his head against my neck, rubbing against me pitifully.

"Haha, okay..."

"Sister, sister, sister... Xingzhi misses you~" He leaned in, about to kiss my lips, but I turned my head and a wet kiss landed on my lips. I was about to struggle and speak when the weight on me lightened. It was Mengzhi pulling Xingzhi's collar...

"Alright! You're pushing your luck, aren't you?" Mengzhi smiled, but a flash of coldness appeared in her phoenix eyes.

"Alright, what are you doing standing here in this freezing weather? Let's go home." Third Brother got out of the car and said in his usual calm tone.

"Let's go." Xiao 4 walked to my side, put his arm around me, and strode towards the carriage.

"Xingzhi also wants to ride in a carriage, won't the horses that came follow?" I looked doubtfully at the two groups of horses wandering in the distance, puffing out white steam.

"The coachman will handle it."

Back home, everyone tacitly gathered at the Mirror of Love and Lust. I looked helplessly at the four guys who were brazenly occupying the bed, the stool, and the floor. The one sitting elegantly at the table drinking tea was naturally the well-behaved Third Brother. The one lying on the bed with his arms outstretched was none other than Mengzhi. The one sitting obediently on the edge of the bed with his hands on his knees was little Xingzhi. Little Fourth pulled over a few cushions and sat directly on the floor, leaning against them. Little Qing also appeared at the right time, standing by the window looking at me expectantly... Well, six people can make a table for a game of six-on-one!

Xiao Bi and Xiao Yue were also overjoyed to see me come back. One happily helped me change into casual clothes, while the other went to greet the few unapproachable young masters. Poor Qing, after looking at me eagerly for a while, turned around and disappeared again. It seems that his skills have really become even faster~ Yes... the job of a shadow is always to be hidden in the shadows.

"Alright, Mengzhi, let's go back. They haven't seen each other for years, so they can have a good chat." Third Brother took another sip of tea and said to Mengzhi, then turned to me and Xiao Si and said, "Just don't forget to come over for lunch later. Uncle knows we're back, so he'll definitely be able to find time to come back from the shop for a meal." Xingzhi and I nodded obediently, and Xiao Si also nodded.

"Heh, Xingzhi, come with me." Mengzhi stood up listlessly and pressed down on Xingzhi's shoulder with a little force.

"Huh? Xingzhi is leaving too? Xingzhi just saw Ya Ya." Xingzhi opened her mouth slightly in disbelief, widened her eyes, and looked up at her older brother pitifully.

"Yes... Big brother just saw you too..." Mengzhi looked at Xingzhi with a kind smile, but the warning in her eyes was not to be ignored.

"But... but Xingzhi misses Ya Ya so much..." Xingzhi stammered and pouted.

"Doesn't Xingzhi miss her older brother?" Mengzhi's phoenix eyes curved again, the threat growing stronger...

"Yes..." Xingzhi searched for my and Third Brother's eyes pleadingly. Seeing that we had no intention of helping, she could only dejectedly follow Mengzhi.

"Then you two catch up on your long-lost sibling bond... Heh, don't miss lunch!" Mengzhi grabbed Xingzhi's slender neck, turning back to give her an ambiguous reminder before leaving.

"Thank you for worrying, cousin. Ya Ya and I will have plenty of time in the future, no rush." Hearing Xiao Si's seemingly pointed remark as she took my hand, I casually sank further into the soft cushion, waving at them without turning my head, lazily saying, "I won't see you off." Third Brother paused as he passed Xiao Si, glanced at her indifferently, and strode out, his emotionless back revealing nothing of his feelings.

The room suddenly became quiet, leaving only the two of us.

My cheeks felt even hotter. Good heavens… I'd been so reckless! We're siblings… how could I kiss him like that in front of others? Besides, he hadn't even said anything to me yet! …He was staring at me without blinking; being stared at like that made my head feel hot. I needed to say something.

“Little 4, how long are you staying?” The words immediately left my mouth, and I wanted to spit them out! Why did it sound like I couldn't wait for them to leave? “That's not what I meant. I meant… how long are you staying before you leave?! Uh, no… I don't want you to leave, I don't want you to leave!” I kept rambling on and on, unable to articulate myself properly. So this is what they call incoherent speech! Frustrated, I twisted the pillow beside me, biting my lip, wanting to burst into tears. …

“Haha~~ How can my little sister be so silly and so cute!” Little 4 across from me suppressed a laugh, her dry hand cupping my cheek, her thumb rubbing my lips back and forth. As he slowly approached with a lazy smile, almost touching my lips, I involuntarily closed my eyes… an overwhelming tension made my eyelashes tremble slightly, and my hands clenched into small fists, pressing them firmly against my knees… But instead, he turned his cheek away from my lips, pressing it against mine, and chuckled softly in my ear. I opened my eyes wide in confusion. Huh? Suddenly, I felt both ashamed and angry. What?! He did it on purpose! He made me think he was going to kiss me? I bit his neck hard, which was so close to mine. He let out a dramatic "Ouch!" and lay down, pulling me close. A warm, throbbing sensation spread through my chest. He laughed and said, "My Ya Ya, it's been so long. Still so silly, it makes me want to tease you." Seeing that he dared to tease me, I straddled his lap, pinning him down, and pinched his side repeatedly. "Ouch! Ouch! I was wrong, Ya Ya, please forgive me!" He laughed so hard he could barely breathe, yet dared not resist too much, afraid of knocking me to the ground. I released him, panting heavily, and said fiercely, "Scared now? See if you dare again!"

"Of course I dare again..." He suddenly sat up, his extremely handsome face pressed close to mine. His cheeks were still slightly flushed from the commotion, his deep eyes shimmering, reflecting my delicate, youthful face. I froze, almost melting under his gaze. "Ha~ Ya Ya tickling me? Have you forgotten you're ticklish too?" His eyes suddenly narrowed wickedly, a malicious smile playing on his lips. He pushed me down and began to grope me! "You've got to tormented me, and I'll show you what's what!" He chuckled coldly, his nimble fingers scratching my waist and armpits, his breath hot on my neck.

"Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother!" I cried out, breathless. Back then, we were both ticklish but stubbornly refused to admit defeat, tickling each other in bed until we were both laughing until tears streamed down our faces, ending in a draw. But now he was no longer the little boy he once was; his strength and physique had grown considerably. How could I possibly be his match? I was already dodging in every way imaginable, even the pillow was pushed aside. "Fourth Brother... have mercy, have mercy on me..." I managed to squeeze out those words, still kicking my legs.

"I can... but there have to be other benefits." I didn't have time to look at his expression, continuing to roll around.

"Okay, okay! Just don't tickle me anymore... mmm..." Hot lips pressed against mine, his slippery tongue prying open my teeth and slipping inside. He held down my arms on either side, his forceful tongue sweeping through my mouth, licking my teeth and palate, the tip almost probing my throat, sending shivers down my spine. Mmm… my wild little 4… “Mmm…” I squinted, my consciousness beginning to blur, especially since the kiss was from him. He released my hands, pulling me up to hook my arms around his neck, his waist tightening as he lifted me. He supported my hips with one hand and held my waist with the other, placing me on the windowsill beside us. My knees pressed uncomfortably against him, so I spread my legs, and he stood between them. He cupped my flushed face, stepping back slightly, gently pecking my slightly swollen lips.

“So sweet, my Ya Ya is so sweet…” I clung to his neck, feeling a tickle on my lips. Opening my still-dazed eyes, I met his deep, dark gaze. Was that girl with moist eyes and an unguarded expression really me? "Does Ya Ya miss me?" His enchanting voice came, and I could only nod foolishly. "Then does Ya Ya like me?" I couldn't help but answer that I liked him very much. His eyes lit up, and he kissed me fiercely again, only letting go of my lips. His kisses rained down on my eyes, cheeks, nose, forehead, chin, and hair... so tender and careful. I closed my eyes and smiled, my heart so soft, because of this boy...

Chapter 36 Conspiracy

At night, three handsome young men sat or lay in a secluded room, each with a different expression.

"Zhan Feng, welcome back." A very alluring boy said in a voice so gentle it gave me goosebumps.

"Ha~ It's like we haven't seen each other for lifetimes. It's only been a few months." Another boy sitting in a wicker chair rocked back and forth, his mockery undisguised.

"Heh, a few months... I'm afraid many things have already surfaced." The elegant boy sitting at the table had a hidden smile in his eyes and gracefully adjusted the lamp wick. The candlelight crackled and flickered, as if hinting at something.

Time seemed to stand still, and no one spoke for a long time. This game, which could no longer be suppressed, was about to begin, all for the person they missed so much that it hurt their hearts. Two of them were her blood relatives, who had lost their right to compete from the moment she was born, and the only one who was qualified had not even been able to touch her heart.

"She is destined not to be alone," Bai Anyang said calmly.

"Interesting, why should I listen to you?"

"Because if you also want her, tsk, you'll probably have to cooperate with us." The smile in his phoenix eyes was deep, and he looked back and forth at the young man in the rattan chair, not missing even the slightest frown.

"I thought that after today, you should have given up!" The words were light and unremarkable, but the provocation and certainty in them were clear to everyone. Bai Zhanfeng rubbed his temples and said casually.

"So what if she likes you? Can you propose to her father, tsk... that is, your father, Fourth Young Master Bai?" Bai Mengzhi crossed his arms and raised an eyebrow.

"Ha... It's better for her to like me but not be with me than for her to dislike you and force herself to be with you..." Zhan Feng shrugged, looking at Bai Mengzhi with pity.

"Hey, you really care about your sister's happiness..."

"Of course, I'm her brother."

"Tch... I hope you remember when we were in bed."

"Of course I remember, you'll never experience this forbidden sweetness in your life..."

"Oh?" Bai Mengzhi raised an eyebrow and looked at An Yang, asking with ill intent, "Is it really that intoxicating?"

Although Bai Zhan Feng knew he was deliberately trying to provoke a conflict and dampen his spirits, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his eyes. Just who had his Ya Ya gotten involved with? Including himself, of course, what had he done to her? He turned his head to look at his usually composed third brother, who indeed showed no awareness of being exposed, remaining calm as if Mengzhi was talking about someone else, expressionless. But things were definitely not as they seemed. Logically speaking, if it was just Mengzhi coming to see him today, then it would be easy to understand, nothing more than someone who couldn't wait to be with him. If his third brother got involved, it would be… because his third brother never did anything pointless. Bai Zhanfeng suddenly felt a headache coming on. Indeed, he liked Ya Ya, even loved her, and had felt that way for many years. But what would happen in the future? He had never thought about it, or rather, he had never dared to think about it. He was her biological brother, a direct blood relative. Even if they discovered that Ya Ya had feelings for him, what could they do? She was destined to marry someone else, and at that time, he would no longer be a part of her world. He would be her brother, and only her brother. Their forbidden love was doomed from the start… Look at Bai Mengzhi, when did this boy he used to spend every day with harbor such intentions? He wanted to marry his sister, and he was even willing to ask for his cooperation to get her. Why? Was he afraid he couldn't compete with his own brother? Ha, he really went to great lengths. But did they really think Mengzhi was still that weak little boy? And, just how deep were Mengzhi's feelings for Ya Ya? Had he considered that he could marry any woman except Ya Ya, then he would never again have the chance to enjoy the blessings of having two wives like Ehuang and Nüying, because that would absolutely not be allowed by his elders? If this thought was just a passing fancy, the price was too high. Bai Mengzhi's frivolous and dissolute nature was always on the surface, but no one had ever been able to touch his heart. However, what was even more puzzling was this usually calm and composed third brother. What kind of magic flowed through Ya Ya? It had not only bewitched his own brother, but even his third brother, who had never had anything to desire since childhood, had developed such thoughts? Given his character, it was impossible that he simply found it amusing. Zhan Feng put away his thoughtful expression, smiled lightly, and looked at his third brother.

"Third brother, Mengzhi is here now, I understand somewhat, but you... what is it for?"

"What you think is what I think. That's all." His calm tone revealed no emotion, but the determination in his eyes was clear to both of them.

"Oh? You love her?" Bai Zhanfeng raised an eyebrow, staring intently at his expression, unsure of his thoughts.

"...Very much." After a long silence, long enough that everyone thought he wouldn't answer, Bai Anyang finally smiled faintly and spoke.

Bai Zhanfeng's heart skipped a beat, but his lips curled slightly. "What would happen if I said 'yes' now?"

"Tch, such a childish question, how could Fourth Young Master ask it?" Bai Mengzhi curled his lips and turned his head to look at the desolate night outside the window. The thick, oppressive atmosphere hinted at the eerie mood, and his eyes no longer held any mockery or frivolity; instead, a trace of melancholy flowed within them. "Naturally, Bai Yaya is my wife, and you two beastly brothers will become her lovers. Of course, how to make her willingly undress for you is up to yourselves." Her phoenix eyes narrowed, a smile returning, and she chuckled, continuing, "Ah, now that you mention it, I feel like I'm the one who's at a disadvantage! Can I change my mind now? I'll go beg Yaya myself, you all better stay away!" As she finished speaking, Meng Zhi's voice turned cold, a thick layer of malevolence flashing in her eyes, which then disappeared in a flash… "Ha, seems unlikely. One of you is the Bai family's wise and shrewd Third Young Master, whose words are always listened to, and the other is the little princess's beloved Fourth Brother… both carry considerable weight." Neither of them spoke, each lost in their own thoughts. An Yang calmly sipped his lukewarm tea, while Zhan Feng curled his lips and simply closed his eyes.

"Worse than beasts? That's quite an apt description. Three men here at this very moment are plotting how to calmly divide up their own sister." Zhan Feng chuckled, rocking his chair again. "I wonder if Ya Ya is pleased with her charm, or... sadly mocking her own depravity." Zhan Feng opened his eyes, his deep gaze both sarcastic and sorrowful as he observed the expressions of the two boys.

"Even so, there's no need to shift blame. You both care for the same woman; you should make her happy. Since things have come to this, let's consider it our fault. Meng Zhi... I hope you truly love her, and don't transfer your feelings for us onto her because of that ridiculous jealousy." Bai Anyang, unusually, stopped smiling, giving him a faint glance that carried a warning.

"Third Young Master, put your mind at ease. How could you not cherish something you've worked so hard to obtain? Ha... It's laughable, do you think I'm being hypocritical? Could I feign indifference to such an important matter as my life's destiny, just to play along?"

"Don't be so ungrateful... I think your brother might be more willing?" Bai Zhanfeng chuckled lazily.

"Let's go back." Bai Anyang stood up, paused, and added, "Since you all know what's going on, don't be too hasty. Don't forget that your little sister's coming-of-age ceremony hasn't happened yet. Be mindful of your actions." With that, he left.

"Ha..."

Bai Zhanfeng still couldn't believe he'd so easily agreed to their absurd proposal. Before tonight, he would have insisted on the purity and pain of his feelings for Ya Ya. But now? The desire that had been hidden deep within him had awakened, revealing the evil light they had offered! He had found a reason to stay with her, even though that reason was so tragic, so absurd… He strode towards Ya Ya's courtyard. He didn't want to do anything more to her; he just wanted to quietly observe her, to quietly observe what she was doing, to see if her innocent, oblivious smile was comforting him for his decision to betray her, or if it was a deeper, more intense pain in his heart. He couldn't understand… His poor Ya Ya, his innocent sister, was it that things too beautiful always fueled an irresistible urge to destroy them? Now, a sigh escaped his lips, a contempt for himself… So, once he knew the reason he could have her, he never considered letting go… Then how was he any different from Bai Anyang and Bai Mengzhi?

Looking at Ya Ya, kneeling and smiling on the edge of the bed, her shadow lying obediently cross-legged on the floor below, Zhan Feng felt a pang of sadness. Ya Ya reached out and gently stroked A Qing's soft hair, while a happy smile graced his lips... Ah, this heartwarming scene, for some reason, didn't bother him anymore... Yes, since he had already given up protecting her purity, what right did he have to be jealous? A Qing suddenly seemed to sense his approach, casting a wary glance in his direction. Ya Ya asked him what was wrong, and he immediately averted his cold gaze, turning his head to look at his mistress with bright, almost tearful eyes, smiling as he said, "Nothing." His face was slightly turned away, his eyes glancing over her again.

Zhan Feng felt a faint sense of loss. The person he had longed for day and night was right before him. But having finally returned to her side, he discovered that apart from her still-present feelings for him, many things had changed. And he wasn't the only one who wanted to protect her. I strolled slowly, leaving faint traces in the snow... I looked up at the exceptionally beautiful moon and smiled faintly... Ah, all that pure love from the past... It turns out they had long since turned to foam, gradually disappearing...

Chapter 37 Turbulence

I woke up early in the morning and stared blankly at the ceiling, suddenly remembering that Xiao 4 was really back. I smiled sweetly, so happy. I jumped up and called Xiao Yue to bring me clothes. Just as I changed out of my pajamas and tied my undershirt, laughter rang out in the yard, and several people filed in.

"Ya Ya, you little lazybones, are you only just getting up?" Xiao 4 came over, pinched my cheek, and kissed me, his smile full of affection.

"You got up earlier than the chickens." I blushed and retorted. I quickly glanced at Third Brother and Mengzhi. Mengzhi came to the bedside, picked up the clothes, and examined them with a tsk-tsk sound. I was about to snatch them when Xiao 4 stopped me.

"If he likes it, let him have it. It'll save you trouble by helping him put it on." I glanced at Xiao Si strangely, but he cheekily kissed my cheek again without explanation.

"Go get some hot water for your master, and also bring breakfast. Bring the young masters' breakfast here too." Third Brother ordered as if he were the master of the place. Xiao Bi and Xiao Yue didn't even look at me and went to do their bidding.

"Ha, what's wrong with being a servant? It's an honor to help the little princess get dressed." Meng Zhi smiled enchantingly, pulled me from Xiao Si's hands, her warm palms holding my wrists tightly, and gently pulled my arms to put on my inner robe.

"But..." I was full of doubt. What's wrong with me today? Are they in a hurry to go somewhere? So anxious that they came here to catch me?

"But what?" Xiao Si found my shoes and socks from somewhere, warmed the white socks in his hands for a while before pushing me to sit down, and picked up one of my slender feet to help me put on the socks. "Ya Ya's little toes are so chubby and cute."

"You're the chubby one!" I pouted, trying to pull my lips away, but he held on tightly...

"Fourth Young Master, don't tease the little princess, you're moving around so much I can't keep up." Meng Zhi's voice sounded beside me. I looked up and met his phoenix eyes, which were full of laughter. My face flushed and I turned my head away. "Is the little princess shy? Your cousin is so happy~" He chuckled and said mischievously. His pleasant scent could almost be smelled on my face, but his nimble fingers, which were fastening the buttons, were not messy at all.

"Here, go comb your hair. Does it take this long to put on your shoes?" Third Brother came up, picked up a comb and handed it to Little Fourth. He then took off the socks that Little Fourth had made tangled up, and carefully lifted my feet to put them on again. He didn't look up at me, as if he was doing something perfectly natural.

"This little master is quite the expert at combing hair. I don't know how many times he's combed her hair when we were kids." Little 4 took off his shoes, climbed onto the bed, and sat cross-legged behind me, gently combing my soft, long hair. The lightness of his fingertips was so obvious, as if he was afraid of pulling on a single delicate strand and hurting me. Perhaps it was too light, because it made my neck tingle.

"Does it hurt?" Third Brother felt my slight tremor and looked up at me gently.

"No..." I blushed.

"How could that be? I couldn't be any gentler." Little 4 immediately protested loudly, afraid of wrongly accusing him. Meanwhile, Mengzhi had finished buttoning her clothes and was taking out her outer robe to put on me...

Was I still half asleep and dreaming? What... what's going on?

The three boys were chatting and laughing as if doing something very natural, like dressing up a doll!? Although this doll really is me, it's still hard to believe. I remember yesterday they were acting strangely, their words carrying a hidden tension, as if they were openly and secretly at odds. How come they're acting like best friends today?

I couldn't help but glance at Mengzhi, who was closest to me. He still had that alluring smile on his face. He looked up at me, and seeing my confusion, he smirked and said, "Why is the little princess's red lips slightly parted? Does she want her cousin to kiss her?" Ignoring his flirtatious tone, I turned to search for Xiao Si's expression.

Seeing me turn around, he smiled smugly. "Ha, it seems Ya Ya wants my kiss." He then leaned closer, and I took the opportunity to stare into his eyes. He didn't seem angry at all at Mengzhi's blatant teasing? Why?

"What's all the fuss about so early in the morning?" Just as Xiao Si was about to kiss me, Third Brother's large hand blocked my lips. Xiao Si's slightly pouting lips landed on the back of Third Brother's hand.

"Third Brother, you're disgusting..." Xiao Si lazily touched her lips, her other arm supporting her on the bed, her cross-legged posture still so handsome.

“Third brother finds you disgusting too.” Third brother waved his hand dismissively, pulled me to my feet, and smoothed out the wrinkles in my clothes. Seeing Xiao Si's discomfiture, I couldn't help but laugh.

“Hey, you two brothers are both disgusting… don't laugh at each other.” Before Mengzhi could finish speaking, we heard a series of footsteps at the door. We turned around and saw Xingzhi pouting as she ran in.

“Your brothers are bullying Xingzhi! You went to eat early this morning and didn't see anyone. You had to ask the servants to find out that Ya Ya and your brothers were eating here. Nobody told Xingzhi!” Whether from anger or from running, Xingzhi's fair face was flushed red, her little fists clenched, and her other arm raised, pointing at us—a serious accusation.

Third brother and Xiao Si remained silent, but their eyes were already glancing at Mengzhi. I chuckled inwardly; answering such an absurd question naturally depended on Xingzhi's older brother.

"What's all the shouting about so early in the morning?" He saw Xiao Bi standing at the door with a steaming basin, waved for her to bring it in, and then said to the sulking Xingzhi, "It's just breakfast, what difference does it make where you eat it?"

"How is it the same? Nobody pays attention to Xingzhi when you're all together... Ya Ya is so biased!" Huh? Why is the blame being directed at me again?

"I only found out when they arrived~~~~" I blinked innocently, indicating that you saw it all, I was the second to last person to know besides you.

"That's still not right! It's all Big Brother Zhanfeng and Anyang's fault!!!" Xingzhi accused him again and again, but no one answered him, everyone seemed busy.

"Hurry up and wash your face." Xiao Si got off the bed and followed Third Brother, who was already pulling me towards the basin. Mengzhi was already testing the water temperature.

"Just right, not too hot, little princess, come here quickly." Mengzhi beckoned.

"Your hair is freshly combed, don't tie it up, let me hold it." Mengzhi placed a towel against my chest as I bent down to wash my face. Xiao Si helped hold up a large clump of hair from behind to prevent it from slipping into the basin.

"Has breakfast arrived yet?" Third Brother asked Xiao Bi in a deep voice.

Everyone was busy...

"Reporting to Third Young Master, Xiao Yue has already gone to deliver it, it should be here soon." Xiao Bi stood respectfully to the side, her eyes fixed

straight ahead. "Hmm, tell them to bring Young Master Xingzhi's as well."

"Yes."

I took the handkerchief Mengzhi handed me and wiped my face, glancing at Xingzhi's expression. The poor little guy was flushed with anger, his chest heaving as he gasped for breath. Only after Third Brother said those words did he pause, calming down somewhat. It was as if he had rushed here to confront me, forgetting to order his food to be brought here as well. I suppressed a laugh; poor Xingzhi. Clearly, Third Brother and Mengzhi had reached an agreement, and he was being ostracized…

“Xingzhi, don’t be angry, let’s eat together,” I smiled at him. His lips trembled, and he looked like he was about to cry. He came over and grabbed my arm, crying out in grievance, “Ya Ya… all the brothers are bullying Xingzhi.”

“Reporting to the young masters, breakfast has arrived and is laid out at Fengyue Pavilion, along with Young Master Xingzhi’s,” Xiaoyue announced as she entered. I wondered what had happened here; the atmosphere was so strange.

“Let’s go,” Third Brother said, leading the way out. I pulled Xingzhi along, following closely behind.

Sure enough, even though it was almost early spring, the morning air was still terribly chilly, and my breath was all white vapor. A few birds chirped sweetly among the trees, and the distant winter plum blossoms wafted a subtle fragrance; a deep breath was invigorating. My third brother, walking steadily ahead, his pale blue robes fluttering in the wind, occasionally turned back to smile slightly at me. I couldn't help but recall some stories with him in the capital, and a blush crept onto my cheeks as I lowered my head.

Xingzhi turned to look at me, asking in confusion, "Ya Ya, why are you blushing?" I stumbled, but he caught me, and then my third brother chuckled softly. I glanced sideways at Xingzhi. Why was he exposing me for no reason? Of all these devils, this one was the most harmless, yet he betrayed me so innocently.

As we spoke, we arrived at the brothel. The old woman waiting there, seeing us approach, had already

sent word inside. Before we even reached the door, a maidservant had already lifted the thick curtain, waiting for us to enter. During the meal, Xiao Si and Mengzhi were still bickering, while Third Brother calmly ate his food, displaying an air of superiority, as if he were the most important person even without his older brothers—quite the demeanor of a patriarch. Although Mengzhi was the same age as Third Brother, she was too carefree and lacked any sense of self-respect.

“It’s almost early spring now, and since my eldest brother’s wedding is set, the family should start making preparations. My eldest brother, father, and second uncle are currently in the capital, and it will be at least a month before they return. The family business is entirely managed by my third uncle, who is also tied up. My fathers’ suggestion is that we, a few idle people, take on this task to do our part.” Third Brother’s words were perfectly reasonable. Mengzhi and Xiao Si already understood this; the person about to marry was their own brother, so how could they object? Xingzhi and I, being people who love excitement, could only pat our chests and guarantee to complete the task.

“However, there’s still a lot to do. The bridal chamber isn’t decorated, the wedding dress isn’t made, the auspicious date hasn’t been chosen, and we haven’t finalized the guests or informed the bride-to-be.” Third Brother rambled on, speaking at a steady pace, and his thoughts were thorough. He might have overlooked some minor details, so everyone chimed in, even Xingzhi joined the discussion. I watched their lively conversation with a smile, imagining how spectacular it would be if they suggested a pastor officiating, white veils and bouquets, everyone in suits and champagne... I couldn't help but wonder what it would be like if my third brother, Mengzhi, and Xiaosi were all dressed in suits. Then, in a flash, the grooms were four young men in white suits, each with a different expression... and the bride they were leading was myself!! I froze, snapping back to reality. Had I really been brainwashed? How could I be fantasizing about my own wedding? And with four grooms... My third brother and Xiaosi were one thing, but what about Xingzhi?

I shook my head. It must be because he's always around me;

he's seen it all the time. That must be it. After reassuring myself, I slowly focused my gaze, only to find them all staring intently at me, having stopped their discussion.

"Wh-what's wrong?" I asked, looking around at them. Beside me, Xingzhi looked innocently curious, Third Brother seemed thoughtful, Mengzhi smiled ambiguously, and Xiao Si raised an eyebrow at me when he saw me looking at him.

"The little princess first smiled strangely with a blush on her face, as if she was plotting something bad; then her eyes showed infatuation, her cheeks slightly flushed; then her face showed surprise, as if she had come to her senses; finally, her expression was uncertain... she calmed down for a while before raising her head." I was dumbfounded, seeing Mengzhi speaking as if she had a camera installed! This... this person is too strange... why observe so carefully?

"What did Ya Ya think of?" Xiao Si asked, resting her arm on the table, her hand supporting her chin, and squinting.

"Nothing much... seeing you discussing the wedding, I just thought of Big Brother's wedding." How could I tell them the truth?

"Big Brother?" Mengzhi and An Yang asked in unison, exchanging a strange look, but not at me.

"When in the capital...?" Seeing them like this, Xiao Si suddenly leaned back weakly in her chair, rubbing her forehead.

"...Probably not!" Third Brother pondered for a while before saying, then relaxed his brows and added, "No, there's no chance." What kind of riddle were they playing?

"Oh..." Little Fourth and Mengzhi breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Xingzhi and I exchanged bewildered glances, completely baffled by their game.

Chapter 38

: The Beginning Even without the main characters and the head of the household, the eldest brother's wedding proceeded smoothly. Everyone worked together seamlessly. Bai Yaya and Little Fourth were in charge of the wedding decorations, Third Brother was responsible for planning the process and arranging attendees, Mengzhi was in charge of procurement and finding various contractors, and Xingzhi was responsible for... well, probably running errands and relaying instructions.

Although it had been a long time since all the siblings had been together, and although the eldest and second brothers were still missing, the lively group of siblings were all present, making it quite a festive occasion. Every day, everyone was laughing and joking, feeling that they had a great responsibility and needed to perform well.

Time slipped by, seemingly never enough. Everyone was incredibly busy, yet even with the auspicious day fast approaching, minor, insignificant incidents kept occurring.

Our Fourth Young Master even managed to squeeze in time to choose a Shadow Guard. This time, Father and Second Uncle weren't participating in the ceremony; at Ya Ya's strong suggestion, she and An Yang represented them respectively. However, two of the original three of the Bai family's Shadow Guards were absent, replaced by the beautiful A Qing and the always-smiling, irritating Mei, making the occasion less solemn.

That Shadow Guard… well… Bai Ya Ya thought he was quite a tough guy. He was actually around 190cm tall; she wondered how someone that big could hide in a tree… a strong, muscular body, thin, tightly pursed lips, and an utterly cold expression whenever she saw him; his unwavering pupils were as cold and black as a deep pool. Assessment complete—truly a cool guy. Eager to see him undress... Waaaah, Bai Yaya almost drooled...

Bai Anyang glanced at his restless younger sister with a mixture of amusement and exasperation. It really wasn't a good thing he'd come. "

Take it off! Take it off!!"

Bai Yaya was so excited she almost stood up, her eyes sparkling with heart-shaped bubbles, completely oblivious to Anyang's arm around her shoulder. Anyang wasn't taking advantage of the situation; he was just trying to prevent her from actually jumping around! Mei knelt behind her master, suppressing her laughter to the point of internal injury... She thought, "That guy taking off his clothes upstairs is finally getting his comeuppance!"

Speaking of which, that newly chosen shadow brother has amazing self-control. Being stared at by such a wolf-like guy, he still managed to undress calmly. Even his future master, Bai Zhanfeng, glanced at her and his eye twitched, while he remained completely unfazed? Impressive!

The old gentleman presiding over the ceremony felt the atmosphere was strange... His hand holding the bowl trembled slightly. He hadn't seen this kind of spectacle in decades. Yet she had to maintain a calm tone.

"Are you willing?... For better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, in poverty and in wealth, to stay by my side forever?"

"I am willing!" the shadowy figure replied in a deep voice.

The above exchange was purely a product of the enchantress's imagination and can be disregarded.

After the ceremony, this shadowy guard with extraordinary composure was named Kui by the Fourth Young Master.

Bai Mengzhi still hadn't chosen a Shadow. Perhaps he felt none of the Shadows here were worthy… too demanding, a perfectionist, maybe a Virgo, Ya Ya guessed.

Another unexpected event was…

of course, our adorable Bai Xingzhi really liked his position because he could roam freely. Since the place he went to most often was Ya Ya's place, it would be even more perfect if it weren't for Zhan Feng, who followed him everywhere… Our Xingzhi

may be a bit naive, but he's definitely not stupid. Lately, it's not hard to notice that things are different from before, like the way his brothers treat him. They all unanimously want him to stay away, including his own brother! It's like the saying, "Why did Heaven create both Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu?" Although he learned this phrase from Ya Ya, meaning "Why are we fighting each other so fiercely?" Uh, that's true too.

But, but… Xingzhi bit his lip. He didn't like this. He just wanted to be with his brothers, wanted to be with Ya Ya, couldn't he? Why couldn't he? He was on the verge of tears… It was certain that everyone except Ya Ya was ostracizing him! 555555, did he do anything annoying?

"Ya Ya,... um, okay, sister!" Xingzhi pouted pitifully, looked up at Ya Ya, twitched her lips a few times, and continued in distress, "Is Xingzhi annoying?"

"Huh? Who said anything to you?" Ya Ya asked while spitting out sunflower seed shells. She had finally been granted a short break, but who knew little Xingzhi would be so mournful...

"..." The man blinked, his long eyelashes drooping and covering his eyelids, almost glistening with tears, looking incredibly pitiful.

"What's wrong? Little darling? Who upset you?" Ya Ya felt so sorry for her. What happened to her little darling? He looked like a little animal about to be abandoned.

"Sister... Brothers seem to really dislike Xingzhi. Brother Anyang and Brother Zhanfeng are both very cold towards Xingzhi, unlike when they were at the forest farm when they were so close to her... And, and Big Brother, Big Brother always forbids Xingzhi from doing this and that. When they're talking together, he always sends Xingzhi away and doesn't let her participate..." The more she spoke, the more aggrieved Xingzhi felt, and she clenched her little fists, trying hard not to wipe away the precious tears that were about to slide down her cheeks. "Especially when Xingzhi wants to stay with Yaya, someone always comes over after a short while... Waaah, either they have something to say to Yaya, or they have something to ask Xingzhi to do!!"

Yaya barely managed to hold back her laughter. So that's what it was about. "Little darling is the best, don't be sad. It's probably because everyone's been so busy with your brother's wedding that they're acting so strangely. It's definitely not because they're ostracizing you." Ya Ya gently wiped away Xing Zhi's tears, smoothing out the wrinkles in his robe. "Xing Zhi is the most obedient and adorable. Everyone dotes on you, right?"

"Mmm... Ya Ya is the best to Xing Zhi." Xing Zhi sniffed, tilted his head, thought for a moment, and smiled. He hugged Ya Ya's soft body, nestled against her neck, and breathed in her sweet scent... "Ya Ya would never abandon Xing Zhi, right...?"

Bai Ya Ya felt a warm glow in her heart. How could she not feel sorry for this child who was afraid of being left alone? "No, how could that be?" Ya Ya smiled and patted the boy's slightly trembling shoulders, her heart softening. "Silly child," she sighed.

When Zhan Feng arrived, this was the scene he witnessed: two teenagers of similar age were intimately embracing, truly childhood sweethearts. Zhan Feng raised an eyebrow and lazily said, "Ya Ya, come here, Fourth Brother has something to tell you." Sure enough, the two stiffened upon seeing their backs.

Bai Ya Ya's eyes twitched slightly; Xing Zhi had indeed guessed right! How amazing! But it was Fourth Brother looking for her, how could she not go? "Xing Zhi, be good, Fourth Brother has something important to tell me, I'll chat with you later. My Xing Zhi is the best, these are extraordinary times, you'll definitely understand Fourth Brother, right?"

"Hmm... Xing Zhi understands. Ya Ya, go on." Xing Zhi was still burying her face in Ya Ya's shoulder, speaking in a muffled voice. Only after Ya Ya helped her up did Xing Zhi break into a bright smile, though tears still clung to the corners of her eyes, making her look pitiful.

Ya Ya kissed his cheek tenderly, "Don't be sad. After a while, we can be together every day again." Seeing him nod with a smile, she felt relieved and ran towards Xiao Si, who had been waiting impatiently.

"Ya Ya, are you keeping him like a pet?" Bai Zhanfeng put his arm around her slender waist, gave her a possessive kiss on the lips where she had just kissed another man, and then released her. He glanced at Xing Zhi, who was still kneeling in the same spot with a confused smile, and said slowly.

"Hehe, what's the rush?" Ya Ya reached out and hugged Xiao Si's arm, clinging to him and acting coquettishly.

"Oh? Of course, it's something very important." Xiao Si casually pulled Ya Ya closer to him, pressing his hard chest against her soft breasts. Seeing her cheeks slightly red, he leaned down and whispered in her lovely ear, "We finally got some free time, so of course we have to get intimate!" His ambiguous breath sprayed into Bai Ya Ya's ear, and Ya Ya let out a soft moan. Xiao Si laughed and quickly led her away.

Only after they turned the corner and disappeared from sight did Xingzhi slowly let go of the smile on her lips, her innocent and lovely face now expressionless.

Everything was ready, except for the final touch

. Finally, in early spring, the Bai family was fully prepared to welcome their future matriarch. The Bai mansion was decorated with festive cheer, bright red everywhere except for the cold, muted colors of winter. Although the weather was still extremely uncooperative, the warmth in everyone's hearts could not be contained.

The eldest young master of the Bai family finally returned, but this soon-to-be groom did not look like he was about to win the heart of his beloved at all. The first thing he did upon returning home was not to check on the preparations for his wedding, but to take the craftsmen to supervise the manufacture of a batch of pear blossom chairs for the imperial palace. This truly surprised Ya Ya, who had been painstakingly preparing, as she was expecting her elder brother to praise them for their work.

With the return of the patriarch, Master Bai, the younger generation did indeed restrain themselves considerably, for example, they would no longer tease their sister in broad daylight... if they really considered her a sister.

The joyous day finally arrived. Everyone took their places, even the second brother from the mountain rushed home the night before, only the poor second uncle couldn't attend because he was in the capital managing a business. Old Master Bai felt a sense of peace, like an old captain, knowing his lineage was secure and his children and grandchildren would have their own blessings. Look, his own child was getting married!

Bai Haolei was indeed a promising young talent, serving as both the groom and the wedding manager. After all, the Bai family were businessmen, and those attending the ceremony were either from major corporations or high-ranking officials in the city; none could be overlooked.

The father-in-law, seeing his beloved son-in-law's smooth and tactful responses, stroked his beard and smiled, relieved that his daughter hadn't chosen the wrong person. This future head of the Bai family, though not as handsome as his younger brothers, possessed a commanding presence that made him stand out. Combined with his daughter's gentle and elegant demeanor, it was truly a match made in heaven.

Everyone awaited the arrival of the bride's sedan chair. Firecrackers exploded, and bright red lanterns and large "double happiness" characters were already pasted up. Uncle San was beaming from ear to ear, while Mengzhi, dressed in his new robe, stood beside him whispering something to his father. The third uncle glanced at Bai Yaya, who was laughing and talking next to Bai Zhanfeng, and couldn't help but nod in approval. Bai Anyang watched this scene with a smile, understanding what Mengzhi was up to. Besides, he had personally arranged everything, so it seemed the play was proceeding according to the script, with no unexpected incidents. There was only one unsettling factor: a glance at Bai Xingzhi, who was tugging at his little sister's sleeve. His innocent expression was still the same as before… but it still made him uneasy, though he couldn't quite see any signs of it.

In fact, Anyang had already had Zhanfeng subtly probe Bai Yaya's feelings. Did she have any other feelings for Xingzhi? Zhanfeng's work was perfect; Yaya's heart had only ever belonged to the fourth brother. What difference did Xingzhi and Mengzhi make? He gave a bitter smile. Ah, of course… and himself too. His expression darkened, and he exhaled a sigh of relief. It was alright; he had plenty of time for her.

The laughter of children at the gate rose in waves, interrupting An Yang's thoughts. It turned out the bride's sedan chair had arrived outside the mansion. An Yang smiled slightly and followed the others to greet it. She hadn't forgotten her duties that day.
