Chapter 97: Brotherly Affection

For a girl who was crying, Ye Kun had no idea how to comfort her. He glanced at Yan Mu'er, who spread her hands to show she was helpless. After all, asking a girl who was only pretending to cry to stop crying was no easy task.

Ye Kun did not say much. He simply held her in his arms, telling Ye Li, I am here...

Listening to the strong beat of the bald little head's heart, Ye Li gradually calmed down. It had been a long time since she had felt this way. A girl should perhaps be a little more delicate. She had simply been too forceful. So this was what it felt like to lean in another boy's arms—she wanted him to protect her. It was comforting.

"You must have hurt your stomach from the diarrhea. Be more careful after this," Ye Kun reminded her.

Yan Mu'er burst out laughing. Husband, you're far too amusing.

If she could, Ye Li would also like to strike her husband with a Black Death Golden Wheel. Husband, you're so straight you make people afraid, do you know that...

At this rate, you will end up alone forever.

"Let's drink the wedding cup first," Ye Kun said with a light laugh. He could tell exactly what Ye Li's expression meant. Asking him to say sweet words was probably impossible in this lifetime.

"Husband, let me pour the wine. You sit down," Yan Mu'er said as well. She had to make her presence felt too; she could not let the older woman steal the spotlight.

Ye Kun felt that if all this were true love, how wonderful that would be...

Yan Mu'er filled the cups. Ye Kun took one in each hand, while his two wives sat beside him.

Ye Kun felt that this wedding cup had rather a distinctive flavor.

Once the cup had been drunk, the room fell silent in an instant.

Ye Li and Yan Mu'er both wore shy, bashful expressions, though inwardly they were thinking about how to get revenge on their Brother Kun in the future.

Ye Kun was thinking the same thing at that moment. Now what was he supposed to do? They had already drunk the wedding cup.

Both sides waited for the other to act, yet neither moved, creating an atmosphere that was awkward yet still politely restrained.

Time passed by the minute. The husband and wives simply sat on the bed, dazed.

The more Ye Li and Yan Mu'er sat there, the more unnatural it felt.

Although Brother Kun had not said a word, an invisible aura of irritation seemed to be emanating from him. It was impossible to withstand, and terribly deadly.

Ye Li and Yan Mu'er cried out inwardly. They had not even managed to tease him yet, and they were already about to be angered to death.

There was a reason why Brother Kun did not want a wife. Just look at them—without warning, they became angry. He had not even said a single word. Could they please be reasonable?

"Hubby, do you dislike Mu'er?" Yan Mu'er, sitting nearby, could not stay quiet any longer. If he kept silent much longer, she was afraid she would give herself away.

"Not really, I suppose," Ye Kun said softly. How could he dislike you? But he could not exactly say he liked her either, so this answer was just right.

Yan Mu'er: "..."

Ye Li: "..."

Ye Li was grateful she had not asked just now, or she would definitely have been angered to death. Just look at that fox-spirit's face—so wonderfully expressive.

She thought herself clever, but the way her husband thought was impossible to guess. If you did not have absolute certainty, do not ask him anything. One sentence from him could infuriate you to death.

"Hubby, don't talk to Mu'er for now. Mu'er is afraid she won't be able to hold back. Mu'er is going to sleep first. I'm tired..." Yan Mu'er turned over and buried herself under the blanket, almost driven mad with rage.

Just a moment ago, she had asked in a coaxing, affectionate tone. Her master had said that in situations like this, men would usually show concern and feel even more pity for you. But look at this little bald head—concern? He had none at all.

She even felt that what her master had taught her was no longer useful at all, or perhaps her master had simply taught her wrongly.

Ye Li was actually very tired too. She had not rested well yesterday, and she had just fought a battle.

"Hubby, I'll rest for a while too. I am truly exhausted today. If anything comes up, call me..." Ye Li opened the other quilt and lay down on the bed. Go ahead and call me—I still won't wake up.

Ye Kun could only watch as his two wives went to sleep. He did feel relieved, but where was he supposed to sleep?

There was only that one bed in the room. Though they had left a space in the middle for him, lying down there...

It felt a little awkward.

It was better to go find Younger Brother and chat. Being with them felt uncomfortable.

He stood up, removed the large red flower from his chest, and then opened the door to leave.

Ye Li and Yan Mu'er on the bed immediately opened their eyes. Good heavens... he really left... and without the slightest hesitation.

Ye Li and Yan Mu'er both wanted nothing more than to split that bald head open and see what was inside...

Yet Ye Kun's initiative had been left to Younger Brother. It seemed brotherly affection was still deeper after all.

"Brother, you..." Ye Qin opened the door and saw Ye Kun standing outside, looking a little surprised.

"They're both asleep. I can't sleep, so I came to chat with you," Ye Kun said with a faint smile, walking into the room. This room felt much more comfortable.

Ye Qin froze, then could not help saying, "Brother, if you're not in the room keeping your sisters-in-law company, won't they say anything?"

Ye Kun let out a soft sigh. "I don't know why, but they just got angry. It was a bit inexplicable."

The corner of Ye Qin's mouth twitched. Brother, you're really good at showing off... Are you here to comfort Younger Brother again?

"Brother, with this kind of thing, Younger Brother really doesn't know what to say. You'd better coax your sisters-in-law."

"Brother doesn't know how. What can Brother do..."

No way—Brother, are you actually saying something like that? Is there really anything in this world that you, Brother, don't know how to do?

Ye Kun patted Ye Qin on the shoulder and said quietly, "Feelings are truly complicated. Younger Brother, tell me—don't your sisters-in-law seem a little strange? We only met two days ago, and they've already been obedient to me in everything. Yet sometimes their tempers flare up out of nowhere."

Ye Qin felt that Brother was teasing him again...

Brother, you're really hurting the bond between us.

The two brothers began an earnest, thorough discussion, breaking into laughter from time to time.

Ye Li and Yan Mu'er, lying opposite them, could not fall asleep at all. On your wedding night, you don't keep your wife company, and instead you go keep your brother company?

Good heavens, completely incomprehensible!

Normally the two brothers would fool around a bit as well, which was perfectly normal.

But today was Kun Kun's wedding ceremony. As parents, Dongmen Meng and Ye Ming came over to join the celebration, only to discover that the two brothers were playing together, and they were completely stunned.

At this time, the weakened Ye Ming was being carried on Zhang Tiantian's back. Even injured like this, he still had to come and support his son—after all, the occasion could not be too lonely. It needed some liveliness.

Dongmen Meng's face had gone black. Kun Kun had always been obedient since childhood, but today he had gone too far!

You left your wife alone in the room and ran off to play with Qin Qin instead. How inconsiderate! And without regard for the occasion, either—today is an important moment for your wedding. How can you leave your wife in the room and not even check on her?

"The eldest young master and the younger young master have such a good relationship," Zhang Tiantian muttered, full of emotion. It was a hundred times better than the master's household.

Liu Ling had also seen the situation in the master's home before, and could not help but sigh.

At Zhang Tiantian's words, Ye Ming and Dongmen Meng exchanged a glance.
