The person feeling uncomfortable inside was right next to Liu Yanyan.
Because Murong Wanwan didn't mention her!
"Wanwan, why are you only thinking about others? Haven't you thought about Aunt Liu?"
Liu Yanyan's pretty face tensed up, and she couldn't help but ask.
"Of course I have! Sister Queen is the best to me, just like Brother Ye Xuan. How could I not think about you?" Murong Wanwan said seriously.
Hearing this, Liu Yanyan's tense face finally relaxed a bit, and she felt more comfortable within.
However, she still expressed dissatisfaction, saying, "It's only right for me to be good to you. How can you compare me with this guy? He almost lost you today, and you call that being good to you?"
"It wasn't his fault. Brother Ye Xuan wasn't even there at the time," Murong Wanwan explained, "Originally, Brother Ye Xuan was supposed to come with me, but then something came up last minute, and he had to leave! Sister Queen, don't blame him anymore."
"Alright, I know you're just defending your little boyfriend. It's really true that girls can't be kept. Your dad would be so heartbroken if he found out."
Liu Yanyan wasn't really angry. After saying that, she showed a gentle smile and gently ruffled Murong Wanwan's hair twice, "Wanwan, I've always treated you like a little sister. You've been without a mother since you were young, so from now on Aunt Liu will pamper you even more, giving you the feeling of being cared for by a mother, and making sure you don't suffer at all. How does that sound to you?"
Murong Wanwan rolled her eyes and immediately denied, "No, not good at all! I don't want that."
"Why not? Don't you want Aunt Liu to be good to you?" Liu Yanyan asked with a confused expression.
"Of course not! I just don't want to treat you like a mother, nor do I want you to take care of me like a mom. I prefer to see you as my sister!"
Murong Wanwan said loudly.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yanyan was taken aback, "What's the difference? Haven't you always called me sister?"
"It's not the same. I called you sister before just to avoid making you sound old. Actually, you've always been Aunt Liu, my elder! If you take care of me as a mother, you would truly become my elder."
Murong Wanwan said solemnly, "There would be a generational gap between mother and daughter, and our relationship would definitely worsen! So, I want us to be true sisters. That way, our relationship can become even closer!"
"Haha, so that's how it is."
Liu Yanyan laughed, without doubting her, "Then you can keep calling me sister. I'm both your Aunt Liu and your sister."
"Okay, I'll call you Aunt Sister from now on!"
Murong Wanwan beamed and happily said to Liu Yanyan.
But no one noticed the fleeting cunning look in her eyes at that moment.
According to Liu Yanyan, she completely believed that Murong Wanwan aimed to bridge the generational gap and improve their relationship. Even Ye Xuan thought the same.
However, they never guessed that Murong Wanwan was orchestrating a grand scheme, and they were just pieces in her game...
When Ye Xuan and the others returned to Flame Bar, it was already eleven at night.
Having been waiting anxiously here, Liu Ying and the shabby old man were relieved to see them return safely, feeling at ease.
"Alright, Wanwan is safely back, so you can all go home now!"
Liu Yanyan said to Ye Xuan with a slightly indifferent tone.
Although Ye Xuan safely rescued Murong Wanwan, dissipating most of Liu Yanyan's anger, she still wouldn't show him a friendly face.
It was indeed because of the despicable things Ye Xuan did to her before that caused Liu Yanyan to hold a grudge, making it impossible for her to be nice to him!
"No problem, if we're just hanging around here, we might as well head back."
Ye Xuan nodded and then called Liu Ying, the shabby old man, and Murong Wanwan to prepare to leave.
"Wait!"
At this moment, Liu Yanyan suddenly stopped them, "You can leave, but Wanwan can't go with you."
"Why is that?"
Ye Xuan paused, looked at her, and frowned.
"Humph! How dare you ask? Wanwan just went through such a dangerous situation, her heart must be scared, feeling insecure. Naturally, she should stay by my side - she needs time to adjust and calm her fears. How can she go with you, risking psychological damage? Will you take responsibility?"
Liu Yanyan retorted reasonably, then coldly questioned.
"You're saying that! I'm a man; she should stay by my side for a better sense of security." Ye Xuan said.
Can a woman provide another woman with a sense of security?
From Ye Xuan's perspective, two women together would only be more emotional, potentially worsening Wanwan's emotional trauma!
"No matter what you say, Wanwan must stay with me, at least for two days. I won't budge this time!" Liu Yanyan insisted.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but feel a headache!
After all, no matter what, she was Murong Wanwan's guardian. If she disagreed with Wanwan going with him, could he snatch her away by force?
"Little Wanwan, do you prefer staying here or coming with me?"
Feeling helpless, Ye Xuan had to let Murong Wanwan decide for herself.
At this moment, Murong Wanwan was also in a dilemma, looking at Liu Yanyan's firm stance and then at Ye Xuan, unable to make up her mind.
Truth be told, she wanted to go with Ye Xuan, but simultaneously had to consider Liu Yanyan's feelings. After contemplating for a while, she earnestly said to Ye Xuan, "Brother Ye Xuan, maybe I should stay here for two days. After all, after what happened just now, Sister Queen is really worried and anxious. I want to stay with her for two days, and then I'll come to stay with you."
Listening to Murong Wanwan's words, Liu Yanyan's face showed a gratifying expression.
It seems this little girl really has grown up, knows how to think for herself. All these years of caring haven't been in vain!
"Alright, since you've made the decision, I won't force you."
Ye Xuan nodded and didn't say more, just called out, "Take care here for two days, and whenever you want to come, call me and I'll come pick you up!"
Since it was Murong Wanwan's own choice, Ye Xuan certainly wouldn't force her; people should respect each other.
One shouldn't take someone away forcefully for selfish reasons!
After saying goodbye to Murong Wanwan and the others, Ye Xuan left Flame Bar with Liu Ying, while the shabby old man stayed to continue protecting Murong Wanwan.
Returning to the Dragon Mountain villa estate, it was nearly 12 o'clock.
Ye Xuan drove into the villa estate and parked the car. They got off and went inside the villa together.
