Chapter 441: Sure, Go Ahead!
Ye Liu gloated non-stop upon seeing their exchange.
Ye Mo grew frustrated by his brother’s behavior. He didn’t get what was so funny.
Ye Yang kept to himself as he ate his food. He felt Ye Mo deserved to be shut out by Liu Duo!
It was his fault for wearing her out anyway!
Ye Ling passed some vegetables to her and said gently, “Duo Er, we’re out of fruit and snacks, so tell us what you want to eat. Liu and Mo will go get them.”
In other words, Ye Ling was finding ways to help his brother seek forgiveness.
Liu Duo leaned sideways and said to him, “Actually, I’d rather have you.”
She knew Ye Ling was helping Ye Mo, so she teased him on purpose.
Ye Ling easily went bright red in the ears. Softly, he replied, “Sure, go ahead.”
He thought they wouldn’t hear his whispers.
But everyone sitting around him certainly did. They weren’t very far anyway.
“...” Had she heard him correctly?
Was this a sign that he was ready to become an adult?
He had requested to consummate the last time they slept together too!
The three brothers began to see him in a different light. He was usually so shy and so coy, yet he had just made a great comeback!
It left Liu Duo speechless.
She pretended to not hear him, and changed the subject, “Ling, these buns you made tasted so nice. I want another one.”
Right then, Li Wazi arrived with his family.
“Are you all still having breakfast?”
They found this unbelievable because the Ye family was usually already busy with work by that hour!
“Yes, there was a bit of a problem with the firewood earlier on, so we ate a bit later than usual,” Ye Liu said. He didn’t plan to tell them what had really happened.
Liu Duo had two buns and some porridge, greeted the Li family, and then quickly ran upstairs to catch up on sleep. Sleep, sleep, sleep, that was all she wanted to do!
Little Lian watched her leave and then asked her husband Li Wazi, “What’s up with Sister Duo? She doesn’t seem like herself today.”
“Not sure, maybe she didn’t get a good sleep? She didn’t take a nap yesterday,” Li Wazi gave an honest answer.
He knew she had a habit of napping in the afternoons.
Ye Yang ate his fill and went out the door. The tomatoes at the farm needed to be cared for, and the seedlings had started to grow.
Ye Liu yelled out, “Li Wazi, come give me a hand with the sauce. We’re taking it to the restaurant.”
Li Wazi heard his name and knew there was work to be done, so he stopped chatting with his wife and went to help.
Back in the room upstairs, Liu Duo took off her garments and fell asleep on the bed.
Ye Ling, Aunt Li, and Little Lian busied themselves with the tomato sauce in the kitchen.
“Ling, why haven’t you all had a baby yet?” Aunt Li suddenly asked.
She could tell Liu Duo liked kids.
They had been living together for quite a few months already, so why wasn’t there any news yet?
Ye Ling wasn’t sure how to answer that.
Liu Duo had told him before that she didn’t plan to have babies just yet.
His brothers had consummated their marriage, so he wondered why nothing was baking in the oven yet!
Amid the silence, Aunt Li didn’t probe any further. She would leave them be.
It was a long while later, when it was time to make lunch, that Liu Duo took her time waking up.
She stretched in bed, “Ah, nothing like a much-needed sleep!”
Then she got down from the bed and went to her dresser.
“Duo Er, do you feel better now?” Ye Ling said as he served a bowl of leftover fruit on the table.
