“Siyehan looked into the distance, somewhat absentmindedly speaking, ‘Wanwan, the annual summit of the Arbitration Council is coming up in Tian Shui City, and I need to go there for a while.’
Every year at the summit, the Arbitration Council handles significant matters and revises the rules for all twelve independent states.
Yewanwan couldn’t help but furrow her brows upon hearing this. ‘A meeting, huh…’
If it’s the Arbitration Council summit, Yinyuerong must be there, and Siyehan’s mother, Yinyuerong, is from Tian Shui City.
Yewanwan couldn’t help but feel a bit worried.
Although she didn’t know much about Yinyuerong, judging from Siyehan’s apprehension towards his mother, she knew it wasn’t straightforward. Plus, Yinyuerong’s unsettling words before she left were enough to send shivers down anyone’s spine.
Siyehan paused briefly, and a hint of suppressed nervousness seemed to flash in his eyes. His expression remained as indifferent as ever as he calmly said, ‘When I return, we will get married.’
Yewanwan, who had been lost in thought, immediately perked up, raised her small head, and eagerly nodded. ‘Alright, alright!’
Seeing the sparkle in the girl’s eyes, Siyehan’s heart returned to its place, and the tense corners of his mouth curved into an incredibly enticing smile. He embraced the girl and planted a kiss on the corner of her lips…
Yewanwan blinked, finding Siyehan’s reaction a bit hard to understand. ‘Sweetheart, why are you so excited? I already agreed, didn’t I?’
At that moment, a soft voice came from behind them, ‘Ahem… excuse me… there are still people here…’
Yewanwan turned to look at Lin Que and said, ‘Oh, I know. With you shining so brightly, how could I not see you?’
Lin Que: …
Couldn’t she consider the feelings of this single dog?
Lin Que stood silently in place, utterly speechless.
Perhaps thinking of something, Lin Que hesitated and finally couldn’t help but ask Siyehan, ‘Jiugong, are we really going back to Tian Shui City? That’s Aunt Rong’s territory. What if… we don’t come back…’
Lin Que didn’t finish his sentence, as he was immediately silenced by a sharp look from Siyehan.
Yewanwan hadn’t intended to ask too much, but at this point, she couldn’t help but inquire, ‘Ajio, what’s the deal between you and your mother?’
Siyehan indeed harbored a deep fear of Yinyuerong. As soon as he heard her name mentioned, his expression changed.
After a moment of silence, Siyehan spoke, ‘Wanwan, I don’t want to hide it from you. My mother is very dangerous. During this time, please try not to go out alone, and as for Tangtang, don’t let him go to school for the time being. I’ll have Jiang Yan personally protect you.’
Yewanwan frowned, ‘Is it that serious… Do you really have to go back?’
Siyehan replied, ‘I can’t afford to miss this conference.’
Yewanwan insisted, ‘Then I’ll go with you!’
‘No,’ Siyehan immediately refused.
Receiving a meaningful look from his elder brother, Lin Que could only add, ‘Um, Jiuniang, Aunt Rong isn’t that terrifying, really. She didn’t dismember her husband or skin his mistress alive, and she certainly didn’t boil her son. Look, Jiugong is still doing just fine. All those rumors are false. Don’t believe them…'”
