Chapter 1059: The Coquettish Princess

“He should have been thrown into jail five years ago. My father intervened and protected him but he still refused to turn from his ways and committed an unforgivable crime. No one will be able to save him now,” Ye Hao’s cold voice echoed throughout the hall and each word felt like a knife through Shen Lu’s heart.

Shen Lu’s face was ashen and the veins on her neck popped as she howled angrily, “Ye Hao!” However, Ye Hao ignored her.

He walked around her and approached Ye Zhe and Ye Shiyu. Then, he looked at them coldly and said, “There’s no need for you to come again. Let me leave you with a warning; you’d better know what’s good for you. If you end up committing a crime like your brother Ye Yi, I will not step in to protect you as well.”

His voice was cold. He wasn’t close to his siblings and hoped that they would stay out of each other’s lives.

Ye Shiyu said, “Brother, you promised our father to care for us. How could you turn back on your words and say such things to us?”

Ye Hao scoffed coldly and said, “What’s wrong with that? I said that I would take care of you guys, not cover up your crimes. You may come to me to see me when you’re ill.”

….

They had a heated argument and Xia Jingshu who was nearby closed her eyes. She suddenly had an urge to give up on life altogether. She was tired of living and she was living in pain every day.

——

At the same time, He Xiyan brought Yuan Yuan and Xi Xi out of the castle.

She had promised Yue Yue’s mother that she would bring her children over to play and make desserts with Yue Yue’s mother.

She thought that it would be good to make friends since they were both mothers and could share their child-rearing experiences with each other.

He Xiyan made her way to the address that Yue Yue’s mother had sent her over WeChat and found herself in a swanky residential area. She parked her car at an hourly car park and led her two children into this residential area.

“Yuan Yuan…” He Xiyan heard an excited cry the moment they walked in.

Yue Yue hopped over to them from a nearby pool. She was dressed very prettily today and wore a pink dress with wide skirts. Her hair was swept up with a pink lacy ribbon which made her look cute and lively.

Yuan Yuan stood on the spot with his hands in his pocket and looked blankly at his classmate who was running toward him.

He didn’t understand why she was calling his name so loudly since he clearly wasn’t deaf.

Xi Xi smiled happily at her. She had never gone over to someone else’s house for a playdate before but she had invited two of her classmates to the castle to play hide-in-seek with her in the past.

Yue Yue ran over and smiled brightly at them, revealing two faint dimples. She immediately grabbed Yuan Yuan’s hand and said, “Yuan Yuan, my mom told me to greet you guys.” Her eyes shone brightly as she blinked up at him and her long eyelashes fluttered.

She was a beautiful girl, just like a mother.

Yuan Yuan nodded. He vaguely recognized her as his classmate because she was always handing him food.

Yue Yue led them to her house.

She walked ahead of them but she kept turning back to look at Yuan Yuan.

Xi Xi lagged behind and stuck close to her mother. She looked around and occasionally burst into tiny peals of laughter but no one knew what she was so amused by.

She suddenly ran up to her brother and took his hand in hers.

She said pitifully, “I don’t want to walk. Would you be able to give me a piggyback?” She finished her sentence off with a pout.

She enjoyed acting in a coquettish manner these days.

Yuan Yuan was speechless.

He turned to look at Xi Xi who had grabbed hold of his arm, his playful younger sister.

He frowned and thought for a moment before he said, “You’re so heavy; I wouldn’t be able to pick you up.”
