Touya Yaoyao

Chapter 109 Second Brother's Warning

As soon as Bai Taosheng finished speaking, Ye Qihua covered his face with a pained expression, revealing an expression of misfortune befalling his family.

Seeing his expression, Bai Taosheng couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and subconsciously looked at Yu Yaoyao, who was closest to her, and asked:

"What's going on?!"

When Yu Yaoyao heard him ask, she remained silent for a moment before letting out a helpless sigh.

She wanted to say she didn't know either, but then she thought that if she said that, the three Ye brothers would become the laughing stock of the entire wealthy circle.

He could only bite the bullet and, under Bai Taosheng's gaze, which was half teasing and half curious, blurt out:

"My second brother finally came back, so he dragged my eldest brother and the others to spar with him. Before we knew it, this is what happened."

Yu Yaoyao dared to say that because it was a well-known secret in the entire wealthy circle that the Ye family liked to instigate fights, and even Bai Taosheng himself had fought with the Ye family a few times.

If Ye Yuntao hadn't been so fed up with Ye Qijia's hobby, he wouldn't have had to ask his father-in-law, General Yu, to send his son to the military camp.

However, what Bai Taosheng found strange was that Ye Qijia's son always stayed in the military camp and would not easily return unless absolutely necessary.

With no holidays or festivals around, this kid's sudden return makes Bai Taosheng feel like something's fishy going on!

And what about Yu Yaoyao? She looked at her brothers with their injuries, then at the pile of medicine in her hand, and subconsciously sighed, resigned to her fate and prepared to apply the medicine to them.

But just as she took a step, Ye Qijia, who was standing beside her, suddenly called out to her, saying:

"Yaoyao, your second brother's eye hurts. Can you apply some medicine for him first?! Leave your eldest brother and third brother to the servants; their injuries aren't as bad as your second brother's."

As soon as he said this, Yu Yaoyao looked at Ye Qijia in astonishment, thinking that he was lying, after all, Ye Qi's injuries were much more serious than his.

But when she saw the look on Ye Qijia's face that said, "You'd better hurry up and come over," she could only apologize to Ye Qijia and the others in her heart. Then she obediently walked to Ye Qijia's side and began to apply medicine to him.

Yu Yaoyao went to help Ye Qijia apply medicine, while Ye Qishi and Ye Qihua could only have the maid apply it for them. Ye Qihua didn't mind and let the maid apply the medicine to his face.

Ye, however, seemed to have suffered some injustice. She irritably shooed away the maid who tried to approach her and began applying medicine to herself.

The Bai brothers, who were watching from the sidelines, looked at the three young masters of the Ye family with bruises and cuts all over their faces, and for some reason, they both wore meaningful expressions.

At this moment, Bai Taoshi understood why Yu Yaoyao didn't want him to come along. After all, this scene really shouldn't be seen by outsiders, and it wouldn't sound good if word got out.

After applying the medicine to Ye Qijia, Yu Yaoyao had just stood up when Ye Qijia suddenly grabbed her wrist as if he had remembered something and asked abruptly:

"Yaoyao must be in her early twenties this year, right?!"

Yu Yaoyao was taken aback by his question and stared blankly at Ye Qijia, who was looking at her intently, as if waiting for her answer.

Seeing Ye Qijia's stance of not letting go until she spoke, Yu Yaoyao was bewildered, but still honestly said:

"Yes, is there... a problem?!"

Ye Qijia wasn't one to beat around the bush, so he spoke directly and bluntly:

"Do you have someone you like?! If not, your second brother can introduce you to a few."

At this point, Ye Qi's family suddenly sounded like matchmakers introducing potential partners, launching into a boastful tale:

"Let me tell you, the soldiers under my command are all good-looking, have great physiques, are reliable and steady, and get things done efficiently. They take care of all the housework and raising the kids. If you want to go east, they'll never go west; if you want to go south, they'll never go north."

He spoke with great conviction and conviction, praising his subordinates as if they were unparalleled in the world.

Yu Yaoyao stared at her second brother with a look of horror, and uttered a sentence in a low voice:

"Brother, I'm not at the point where I need to go on blind dates yet. I think relationships are..."

Before Yu Yaoyao could finish speaking, Ye Qijia rudely interrupted her, even giving her a warning look and speaking aggressively:

"Yaoyao, don't be stubborn. Just tell me, do you want the guy your brother is introducing you to?"

Looking at Ye Qijia's serious expression, Yu Yaoyao was about to refuse, but she hesitated to speak because of his tough attitude and the warning in his eyes. At this moment, she felt extremely pressured.

She's only in her twenties! Not her forties! Why treat her like this? What is this?! Is this a forced marriage, an arranged marriage, or just someone who doesn't like her?!

After pondering for a long time, Yu Yaoyao decided that she still had no plans to be in a relationship. She was doing well with her career, so why bother with love?

Thinking this, she looked at Ye Qi's house, her gaze suddenly hardening, and she refused without hesitation:

"Second brother, I know you mean well, but feelings can't be forced. I also know you might say that feelings can be cultivated, but if that were true, we've been together for almost ten years and haven't developed any love yet!!"

At this point, she abruptly interrupted Ye Qijia, who was about to speak, and offered a sincere suggestion:

"Actually, I also have a lot of things to do. If you think I..."

Seemingly anticipating what Yu Yaoyao was about to say, Ye Qijia abruptly covered her mouth without warning. Looking at Yu Yaoyao with a mixture of pity and sorrow, he smiled helplessly:

"Second brother is just joking, second brother is just joking, Yaoyao. You know, how could second brother find you annoying?! If you're happy, you can stay in this house forever."

After saying this, he released his hand from Yu Yaoyao's mouth, stroked the top of her head with a complicated expression, and whispered:

"But... but now even Second Brother doesn't know what to do?!"

Bai Taoshi's expression was already somewhat unpleasant when he heard Ye Qijia introducing a potential partner to Yu Yaoyao. Now, seeing Ye Qijia affectionately touching Yu Yaoyao's head, he felt it was particularly offensive.

He frowned, walked up to Yu Yaoyao, and said in an annoyed tone:

"Now that things are settled, we should be leaving, right? After all, you haven't finished investigating the case His Majesty asked you to investigate, have you?!"

When Yu Yaoyao heard Bai Taoshi mention the case, she seemed to remember something, picked up her phone, forwarded the video she had recorded to Bai Taoshi, and then said with a smile:

"I've sent you the video. You can just show it to Her Majesty later. If Her Majesty has any other questions, I'll find time to explain them to her."

As soon as Yu Yaoyao finished speaking, Ye Qijia, who was standing to the side, looked at Yu Yaoyao with a shocked expression, as if he had heard some unbelievable news, and tentatively asked:

"You...have seen His Majesty?!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Yaoyao looked at Ye Qijia in surprise and asked, puzzled:

"Yes, I've seen you before. What's wrong?!"

Seeing Yu Yaoyao's puzzled yet unsurprised expression, Ye Qijia couldn't help but glance at Bai Taoshi, then tentatively asked:

"And what about General Bai?! You... you've met him too!!"

Yu Yaoyao looked at Ye Qishi with confusion, not understanding who General Bai he was referring to. After all, there were quite a few generals with the surname Bai in Zhao Kingdom.

Seeing her blank expression, Shirato couldn't help but lean closer and whisper a reminder:

"That's the general you met today, Her Majesty's husband?!"

As if snapping out of her daze, Yu Yaoyao spoke without any restraint, speaking in a carefree and uninhibited manner:

"Is that General Bai, who has been separated from His Majesty for nearly a decade and almost got cuckolded by a guard? I've met him before."

Upon hearing this, Bai Taosheng was shocked, Bai Taoyi rubbed his forehead in exasperation, and the three Ye brothers were completely dumbfounded.

No, is this something they should be listening to?! Is this something they should know?! Yaoyao, aren't you afraid that if we spread this around, His Majesty will retaliate?!

Thinking of this, the three brothers, who had just been ignoring each other, looked at Yu Yaoyao with helpless expressions, realizing that their younger sister was indeed a bit too naive.

Royal matters are not something that can be spoken of so casually and without hesitation. If His Majesty were to find out,

Looking at Yu Yaoyao's extremely sincere expression, Ye Qijia hesitated for a long time before speaking succinctly:

"Yaoyao, matters of the royal family are not for us ministers to discuss. You must never say such things to anyone again."

Yu Yaoyao frowned, looked at Ye Qi's house, and asked curiously:

"Can't you even say anything?!"

Ye Qijia nodded and then spoke again, offering his instructions:

"No, not even to your closest family members."
