Shen Qianshu looked up. In her clear and beautiful eyes, there was tenderness and also firmness. Coupled with strength and gentleness, they were filled with determination too. “In my heart, no matter how much inheritance there is, it cannot be compared to Ye Ling’s reputation at all. Even if he’s dead, I will not allow anyone to tarnish his reputation too. Allow me to properly think of a countermeasure.”
She needed to think of a perfect strategy to solve this problem.
She could not give the a.s.sets to them; these a.s.sets were Master’s whole life’s hard work. She also could not let the old lady reveal Master’s illness. If his illness were to be revealed, Master would become a laughing stock, and everybody would be pointing fingers and talking about him. Even if he could not feel it, she would not allow that to happen too.
“Alright, no matter what decision sis-in-law makes, I will support you.”
Shen Qianshu returned upstairs. Ye Yifan and Ye Tingyun went out, and they walked past the garden. After seeing the garden full of b.u.t.terfly orchids, Ye Tingyun could not help but ask. “Big brother didn’t really like orchids. Why is the garden full of b.u.t.terfly orchids?”
“These were given to him by sis-in-law,” Ye Yifan said. “He was really delighted when receiving them.”
“How did you know?”
“I was there,” Ye Yifan said. “Big brother always put on a poker face. n.o.body could tell whether he’s happy or not, but it will never be hidden from me.”
Ye Tingyun was deep in his thoughts. “I never once imagined that big brother would fall in love with someone… to the extent that he could sacrifice his life.”
“Isn’t that great?”
“How is that great?”
“Having a lover, a longing. How is that not great?”
“Having a longing equates to having a weakness. This relations.h.i.+p… It’s okay to just have fun, but it shouldn’t be taken too seriously,” Ye Tingyun said neutrally, perfectly portraying a celibatarian’s mindset.
“Jerk!” Ye Yifan exclaimed.
“I’m not even being a jerk to you. Why are you feeling so indignant?”
“Second brother, you were testing sis-in-law just now. If big brother were to know of this, he would fly into a rage,” Ye Yifan said. “Even if you don’t believe in love, you shouldn’t underestimate the power sis-in-law holds in big brother’s heart.”
“Is sis-in-law such a frail and delicate flower that she can’t be tested?”
“Why are you testing her for no reason?”
“Big brother could even sacrifice his life for her. What’s the harm if I test her for a little bit?” Ye Tingyun said calmly. “I can’t possibly let my big brother show all his true feelings, only to have the person treat it as trash and not appreciate it!”
“A brother control freak!” Ye Yifan exclaimed.
Scary!
“Big brother really has a mental illness?”
Ye Tingyun frowned and said, “Why don’t you ask Grandma?”
“I will never dare.” Ye Yifan did not really wish to know about this. No matter whether Ye Ling had a mental illness or not, to him, there was not much difference. His big brother was his big brother. Whether sick or handicapped, he was still his big brother. Ye Yifan only felt bad. His big brother had doted on him so much, but when there was such a serious issue, he was clueless. So many years had pa.s.sed, but he was still too carefree. He felt really guilty.
“I am unable to answer you,” Ye Tingyun said and opened the car door. “Let’s go. We still have matters to attend to.”
Shen Qianshu sat in her bedroom, deep in her thoughts. Burger jumped on the bed, rested beside her feet, and gently scratched her soles. It looked at her with a pair of curious and stern eyes. Shen Qianshu smiled faintly.
Tong Hua walked towards her, climbed onto the bed, and sat facing her.
“Tong Hua, what do we do?” Shen Qianshu said.
“This matter is actually really easy to solve.”
Shen Qianshu raised her eyebrows and said, “How?”
Tong Hua’s voice was tender and innocent. “This is always how it is acted out in dramas. Secrets are called secrets because they are brought to death together with their owner.”
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
My baby, what dramas have you exactly acted in these few years?
