No, Id love to, its just that Im worried you might Ye Fan began hesitantly.
What if she really got scared out of her wits!
I wont, I believe in myself. The greater the fear, the more I must ovee it. With you here, what is there to fear! Bai Susu spoke again.
Thats right, with me here, you have nothing to fear! Ye Fan affirmed.
Thinking like this, this was his chance.
If Bai Susu got scared, hed be there to apany her, to take care of her.
Mm-hmm. Bai Susu nodded.
Susu, I didnt sleep wellst night, Im a bit tired, Ye Fan yawned as he spoke.
Indeed.
In order to take care of Bai Susu, he hadnt slept well all night.
He was already suffering from insomnia, and then, out of worry for Bai Susu, he struggled even more to sleep, drowsing off only as dawn approached.
Then you should get some rest, I wont disturb you, Bai Susu said, preparing to get up.
Unexpectedly, Ye Fan pulled her right back down with one hand.
Ye Fan? Bai Susu looked at him, puzzled.
Whats he up to?
Dont move, let me hold you for a bit, you smell so good, Ye Fan pulled Bai Susu into his arms, wrapped his hand around her waist, and rested his head on her shoulder, closing his eyes.
Bai Susu was so startled she didnt dare move a muscle, her already tense heartbeat now racing.
Looking at Ye Fan with his eyes closed, she finally exhaled in relief.
Then it dawned on hertheir position was incredibly intimate, and the next second, her cheeks red up in an instant.
Done for, done for!
Their posture was indeed heart-fluttering and face-flushing!
What to do!
Bai Susu was incredibly nervous at heart, but she didnt dare move, for fear of disturbing Ye Fans rest.
After all, it was because of taking care of her that he hadnt sleptst night.
Sigh, never mind then.
Bai Susu tried to calm her restless heart.
Feeling hisrge hands on her waist, she found them scorchingly hot, as if they were burning her skin.
Hm?
Her neck felt a bit itchy!
Bai Susu looked down, seeing Ye Fans handsome face so close, and her heart leaped uncontrobly again.
Wow(o)
It was his warm breath on her neck that made it feel itchy and hot.
How could this be!
Bai Susu swallowed nervously.
Chapter 135 - 115 Are You a Little Resentful and Dissatisfied with Yourself?
Chapter 135: Chapter 115 Are You a Little Resentful and Dissatisfied with Yourself?
No way, Im really nervous!
Its my first time being this close to a boy.
Although, Ive been with Ye Fan before, but I was drunk then and hardly conscious; how could I have felt anything?
Now, Bai Susu has truly understood.
This feeling made her anxious, scared, joyful, confused, conflicted
Anyway, her heart was truly in turmoil.
Dont move, just let me hold you properly, Ye Fan couldnt help but hold her tighter.
In an instant, Bai Susus face reddened again.
Yes, her skin was touching Ye Fans directly.
Even through clothes, she could feel the warmth from his body.
This made her even less calm.
What should I do?
Bai Susu wanted to get up, but, remembering how Ye Fan took care of herst night, she couldnt just do that.
Besides, Ye Fan hadnt done anything inappropriate.
Moreover, even if he did, it would be normal between them.
After all, they cared deeply for each other and had been intimate once before.
Ah, Bai Susu was incredibly conflicted in her heart.
Unconsciously, while caught up in her thoughts, Susu fell asleep.
She slept until the middle of the day before waking up.
Ye Fan had woken up before her, but not wanting to disturb the moment, he just stared at the sleeping face of Bai Susu.
So beautiful!
The more he looked, the deeper he fell in love.
He left a kiss on her fair forehead.
After a while, Bai Susu also slowly woke up, and upon opening her blurry eyes, she saw an erged handsome face. She was about to scream, but then remembered the events before and held back.
Blinking her big eyes innocently, she looked at Ye Fan.
Youre awake, you slept even more soundly than I did, Ye Fan said with a touch of annoyance.
Indeed!
This girls sleep is just superb, no doubt about it.
Hehe, it was an ident, an ident. I was just bored, so I fell asleep too, Bai Susu started to feel a bit embarrassed.
She had agreed to let Ye Fan nap while she held him, but she didnt expect to fall asleep as well.
Really? Ye Fan looked at Bai Susu with a smile, then slightly shifted to lie half over her, looking down at her.
Bai Susu suddenly became nervous!
This position was somewhat rming!
Whats wrong, feeling shy, nervous? This is bound to happen sooner orter, and besides, I havent really done anything yet! Ye Fan whispered into Bai Susus ear, his breath sending shivers down her spine.
Her body tensed up, her heart pounding with nervousness.
Look at you, I wont tease you anymore, or else you might get too scared! Ye Fan said with augh as he sat up.
You bad guy, Bai Susu murmured under her breath.
This man, hes just too naughty!
But for some reason, she felt both love and irritation toward him.
Just now, for a moment, she actually looked forward to Ye Fan continuing.
However, once Ye Fan moved away, she felt a bit disappointed, a little bit of loss seeping in.
Oh my God!
Bai Susu, Bai Susu!
Whats wrong with you?
Are you sick?
Or have you gone mad?
How could you have such embarrassing emotions, this is utterly humiliating.
Really, its exasperating.
Bai Susu thought about her own emotions just now and felt she had changed.
She had be somewhat
Yes, thats right!
It was all Ye Fans fault!
He must have infected her!
She had heard that immodesty could be contagious.
She had been infected by Ye Fan, that guy was really detestable!
As the saying goes, A person is known by thepany they keep.
Thats exactly the point.
The more Bai Susu thought about it, the angrier she got, and her gaze towards Ye Fan was very unfriendly.
Whats wrong? Ye Fan asked with some confusion.
Why did he feel that Bai Susu was resentful and dissatisfied with him?
He hadnt provoked her at all.
Could it be that he had unintentionally done something to upset Bai Susu?
Its nothing! Bai Susu rolled her eyes and immediately got up, put on her shoes and stood up.
Lets go eat, Im hungry! Bai Susu turned her head and said to Ye Fan, who was still sitting on the bed, then walked out.
For some reason, Ye Fan always felt that their roles seemed to have switched?
It was like, after that thing, the guy left, and the girl was a bit sad, yes, like sorrow.
Ye Fan smiled helplessly, shook his head, and cast out the mess in his head.
Was he so idle that it hurt?
How could he have such boring thoughts!
He felt utterly helpless about himself.
Once he had his shoes on, he saw that Bai Susu was sitting on the sofa waiting for him.
Lets go, well go grab something to eat. Ye Fan straightened his clothes, came over to Bai Susu, and extended his slender hands.
Okay. Bai Susu ced her hand in Ye Fans, and he gripped it tightly; only then did the two of them leave the room and head to the dining area.
There were already many people there.
When Bai Susu and Ye Fan arrived, everyone around them looked over.
It couldnt be helped, he was handsome, and she was stunningly beautiful; wherever they went, they were the center of attention.
The two of them didnt care about the stares from others; they just chose the food they wanted to eat.
At that moment, in a corner, two girls saw Ye Fans handsome face and immediately got star-struck.
Qianqian, look, isnt that the businessman who acquired the Jia n and Bai Group recently? Chen Yan said, her eyes wide as she looked at Ye Fan.
At that time, she just happened to be working at the Jia npany.
They had said the new CEO was tough and was going toy people off, so she handed in her resignation. But when she presented her resignation and saw the new CEO was a very handsome young man, she instantly regretted it. However, because she couldnt swallow her pride to plead with him, she ended up leaving.
She had no idea the CEO was staying in this five-star hotel.
The girl with him was also very beautiful.
A hint of jealousy shed through Chen Yans eyes. What did it matter if you were pretty? Men, especially rich ones, always liked the new and tired of the old.
With this in mind, a smile flickered across Chen Yans eyes.
It really is him, that should we go say hello? I havent resigned yet, Im still working at the Jia n, but now its been renamed to Bufan Enterprise, Wu Qianqian spoke up, her eyes lighting up.
She was a bit nearsighted. At first, she vaguely recognized the handsome man and felt he looked familiar, but because she couldnt see clearly, she didnt think much of it.
Now, hearing what her best friend Chen Yan said, it did indeed seem like the CEO.
This was her CEO, a young and promising man.
Inside thepany, which female employee didnt admire and take an interest in the CEO?
But, Ive already resigned, what should I do? Chen Yan said, feeling a bit awkward.
Whats there to be afraid of? Im still here, Wu Qianqian said with a triumphant smile.
But, the CEO has ady with him, and shes so beautiful. Wont we be asking for trouble if we go over there? Chen Yan spoke again, a cold light flickering in her eyes.
What does that matter? Were just greeting the boss to make an impression. Who knows, the new CEO might need us one day, Wu Qianqian smiled, thinking she looked very charming.
Youre right, you just saw the CEO and simply want to say hello. Im just going to apany you. That excuse is perfectly reasonable, Chen Yan nodded.
Indeed, seeing your own CEO, the big boss, greeting him as a subordinate was a matter of courtesy, wasnt it?

Ye Fan and Bai Susu had just found a ce to sit down and were about to have dinner when two people arrived.
Bai Susu, feeling a shadow cast over her, couldnt help but look up, only to see two women dressed in shy attire.
When those two looked at her, a hint of disdain shed through their eyes.
At that moment, Bai Susu understood.
It seemed these two were here to pick a fight.
President, its really such a coincidence. I didnt expect to see you here, Wu Qianqian said with a brilliant smile, her voice sweet.
Yes, Chen Yan chimed in from the side.
There are too many employees, I dont recognize you! Ye Fan said indifferently without even lifting his head.
Right, you know, my husband manages quite a few people. With so manypanies acquired, we dont have to remember every single employee, Bai Susu said with a slight smile, very graciously.
Hmph, unting themselves in front of her, trying to seduce her man Bai Susu, how shameless!
She hadnt expected that Ye Fans employees woulde up and flirt like this. Bai Susu was really annoyed.
What a ma for bees and butterflies!
Wife, have some meat, youve gotten thinner! Ye Fan said with a smile, picking up a piece of meat for Bai Susu.
The girl was clearly jealous.
Even he, who was usually clueless, could see that.
But such a feeling was really nice!
It showed that the little girl truly cared about him.
To think that shed get jealous over him with others.
Ha ha ha O(_)O ha ha~
Ye Fan felt his mood reaching its peak.
President, we actually Wu Qianqian began to speak, only to be halted by a gesture from Ye Fan.
You can leave. Dont disturb the moment between my wife and me, Ye Fan spoke coldly once more.
It was true!
Those two reallycked perception.
Maybe it was time to check thepanys employee list. Employees like these could be let go.
Yes,cking perception like that, they could ruin things during special times, like signing contracts or discussing partnerships.
Theres no need to keep such talents.
Of course, Ye Fan would never admit that it was because his wife got angry that he thought about firing the two.
Upon hearing Ye Fans words, Bai Susus lips curled up a bit, and her mood improved slightly. Well, just a little bit.
The two women still wanted to say something, but upon seeing Ye Fan lift his head and give them a cold look, realizing his genuine disdain, they left reluctantly.
The next second, Ye Fan turned to Bai Susu with a beaming smile.
Ye Fan, those two women are interested in you. Theyre quite good-looking, and they have nice figures too. Why didnt you keep them? Bai Susu said with a sarcastic tone while eating her food, full of jealousy.
People around nced over a few times but didnt pay too much attention, seeing such things were prettymon.
Many women would throw themselves at men, and of course, many men did the same. It was nothing out of the ordinary.
I dont like them. No matter how good they are, they have nothing to do with me. I only like my wife, Ye Fan said with a smile.
Cut it out, whos your wife, dont talk nonsense, Bai Susu retorted proudly.
Really, so thick-skinned!
Susu, if youre not my wife, then who is? Of course, if you dont marry me, wouldnt you be at a huge loss! Ye Fan said with augh.
What do you mean? Bai Susu was a bit confused.
She didnt understand the meaning behind Ye Fansst sentence.
She always felt as if that sentence made a lot of sense.
Take a guess. Im not going to tell you, Ye Fan said with a smile, continuing to eat his food, not saying another word.
Bai Susu listened, frowning slightly. She didnt dwell on it anymore since she didnt know what was going on.
That guy, it seemed he wasnt going to tell her anyway.
Bai Susu couldnt be bothered to care about it anymore.
Right now, eating was the most important thing.
After they finished their meal, they returned to the hotel.
Ye Fany on the bed, ying games on his mobile phone.
Dammit, charge, dont chicken out.
Dammit, group up, why are you running away? You got me killed!
Thats it, Im reporting him!
Ye Fan was ying and yelling at the same time.
He was so angry that he almost smashed his phone.
Were his teammates kids?
How could their skills in the game be so terrible?
Ding dong, congrattions to the host forpleting the update. You have been upgraded from a beginner daddy to an intermediate daddy and rewarded with an upgrade gift pack: 500 Points, four cans of bone growth-promoting form, and four bottles of nt oil seeds to supplement the nutrition needed by toddlers. For every 100 Points, you can draw a prize. The System has now opened the lucky draw event and also opened the shop where you can exchange goods with Points, said the mechanical voice of the System in Ye Fans mind.
Ye Fan sat up straight, filled with surprise.
Good lord, what a boon!
The System had finally finished upgrading.
This upgrade had almost taken half a month.
A bit long, indeed.
But all of it was worth it.
The System had actually opened a shop, there was a lucky draw, and there were so many prizes and Points. Ye Fan was thrilled!
The frustration from ying the game instantly vanished without a trace.
Awesome!
His children could now get an even better nurturing n.
Ye Fan was beyond happy.
He immediately opened the shop page. To his surprise, the items listed included brain development form for 150 Points, bone growth-promoting form for 150 Points, baby bottles for 100 Points, a baby car priced at 300 Points, clothes for children made of century-old silkworm silk that was impervious to fire and water for 1500 Points, robot Butlers for 5000 Points per unit, and many other items that were all so expensive.
The System had only rewarded him with 500 Points. What could that do? It had very limited use.
Man, he was so poor!
He really wanted to get each one of his babies a century-old silkworm silk outfit, and he also coveted the baby car, as well as acquiring more robot Butlers.
At that moment, Ye Fan felt that he was quite greedy.
He wanted to give everything to his babies, to provide them with the best.
After all, they were his children.
Man, he really was too poor.
Looking at the items avable for exchange in the shop, he felt like crying. This was poverty making him cry.
No, he had to work hard to earn Points.
Right, speaking of which, the System hadnt mentioned the most crucial thing.
And that was, how to earn Points?
System, how can I earn Points? Ye Fan asked.
The host need not worry. As long as you do things for the babies, the more and the better, the more thoroughly you cater to them, the System will automatically assess and award you Points. Of course, you may also trigger some special rewards! The Systems voice echoed in Ye Fans mind.
At that moment, Ye Fan looked as if he had an epiphany.
As long as he did things for his children, nned their future carefully, cared for them better, he could earn Points. Not bad at all!
Very user-friendly indeed!

Chapter 137: Chapter 117: Old Master Bai Wakes Up! [Large Chapter, Subscription Requested]_1
Atst, Ye Fans eyes lit up when he saw on the Systems merchandise shelf an introduction to something called Vitality Elixir.
The description stated that as long as one was not dead, it could cure all kinds of intractable ailments.
When Ye Fan saw this, he couldnt help but feel excited from the bottom of his heart.
This System is really awesome.
To think, it even has this kind of thing.
Wait, the Points needed for the exchange are actually four hundred?
Old Master Bais grandfather could really use this thing.
Consuming one pill, there definitely wont be any problems.
Perhaps, he might even wake up very soon.
If Old Master Bais grandfather really did wake up, then Bai Susu wouldnt worry about him anymore, after all, seeing Bai Susu distressed every day, Ye Fan truly felt pained.
He was always anxious about how to wake Old Master Bai up, and it troubled him a lot.
And now, with the System getting an upgrade, it has given himself such a surprise, which is truly fantastic.
But, these Points?
Arent they a bit expensive?
Ye Fan felt that the System was eyeing the five hundred Points he earned from the reward, so it wasing up with ways to take the Points back.
Really cunning.
However, for Old Master Bai, those four hundred must be spent.
As long as it could heal Old Master Bai, even four thousand Points would be something hed find a way to obtain, not just four hundred.
This System is the most reliable assistant after all.
Ye Fan quickly proceeded with the exchange, and in an instant, a Vitality Elixir appeared in his Systems storage, while his Points dropped from the original five hundred to one hundred.
Congrattions, host, for your first use of the high-quality item exchange. You are rewarded with one Vitality Elixir and one free lottery spin. Looking forward to your next exchange, the Systems voice echoed in Ye Fans mind.
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan was stoked!
Four hundred Points were equivalent to getting two Vitality Elixirs.
Plus, theres a free lottery draw, amazing!
Full of ecstatic anticipation, he looked at the spinning wheel.
He was incredibly curious.
He wondered what he would get from the lottery draw.
Prompt, would the host like to spin the lottery?
Draw the lottery! Ye Fan immediately replied.
If not now, then when?
This lottery draw must be done!
Lets see what his luck holds.
Starting the lottery draw, the spinning wheel is now activated!
With the Systems words, the spinning wheel began to whirl instantly.
Ye Fan watched nervously, looking at the various prize levels on the wheel until his eyes almost blurred, not daring to blink, afraid of missing something.
His heart couldnt help but race, and he unconsciously held his breath.
Quickly, quickly!
Please bless me, I must get a good reward!
Though Ye Fan didnt particrly want anything at the moment nor did he have an urgent need, he simply wanted to win a prize, anything at all.
Heh heh, thinking this, even Ye Fans handsome features turned a shade redder with excitement.
Watching the wheel gradually slow down, Ye Fans heart tensed up.
He stared hard at the spinning wheel.
Finally, the pointer came to a gradual, slow halt.
Ye Fan clenched his eyes shut in nervousness, silently praying for a win, to get any prize.
After half a minute.
Ye Fan then slowly opened his eyes, looking at the spinning wheels pointer. The next second, he was stunned.
Damn, whats the situation?
Congrattions, host, you have drawn a Thank You for Participating. Better luck next time!
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan was even more speechless inside!
If I didnt win, then I didnt win.
A Thank You for Participating is fine, but why congratte me on that? What does that mean?
Ive never seen such a knife-twisting approach.
Its really too much.
System, can you still function properly as a System?
s, never mind, never mind.
If I cant draw, then I cant draw.
Ye Fan finally realized that the spinning wheel also had the words Thank You for Participating. He hadnt seen it clearly earlier, because the wheel was filled densely with writing, and without looking carefully, he started the draw,
So, does this mean in future draws, its quite possible to get nothing and waste the Points he worked hard for?
Thats really sneaky!
Who would have thought, the System would be so sneaky.
However, there are indeed many great items.
Ye Fan moved closer to see, there were robots, Elixirs that could extend ones life, all kinds of strange nes, bracelets, Pendants, talismans, and many other various Elixirs that Ye Fan had never heard of, and wait, were those eggs, too?
This spinning wheel had quite the array of odd things.
Ye Fan was truly curious.
There were also mysterious grand prizes, special prizes, and so on; too many to see, the writing tiny and dense, it was dizzying.
Now without any Points, theres no use watching this.
I can only look and not participate.
My Points are now limited to a hundred, might as well keep them for now.
After all, Ye Fan doesnt quite like seeing a zero.
Right, now he can take Bai Susu to the hospital to see her grandfather, now that he has the medicine that could potentially cure Old Master Bai.
But still, he wondered if the Elixir would be effective and whether there were any side effects.
As Ye Fan pondered, the System began speaking again
Please rest assured, host. System-produced items must be top-quality, and in terms of safety, they are absolutely secure, the System reassured him.
Chapter 138: 117: Old Master Bai Wakes Up! [Large Chapter, Subscription Requested]_2
Chapter 138: Chapter 117: Old Master Bai Wakes Up! [Large Chapter, Subscription Requested]_2
Ye Fan listened and finally put his mind at ease.
Ye Fan, Ye Fan, whats wrong with you? Why are you spacing out? What are you thinking about? Bai Susu gently nudged Ye Fan.
A moment ago, everything was fine!
How did he suddenly be lost in thought,
she really had no idea what was on his mind.
After calling him several times with no response, Bai Susu was also worried something had happened, scaring her to immediately rush to Ye Fans side.
Looking at him, seeing he was just a bit distracted, she finally rxed.
Although he was deep in thought, he was too absorbed, wasnt he?
Why couldnt she wake him no matter how loudly she called?
Yes, Im here, dont worry, theres nothing wrong. I was just thinking of some solutions that might save your grandfather. Come on, lets go to the hospital right now! Ye Fan said to Bai Susu.
Really? Thats wonderful! Bai Susu was very happy, excitedly hugging Ye Fan.
That was truly great news!
Her grandfather might be saved!
Although she had no idea how Ye Fan hade up with a solution, as long as her grandfather was fine, nothing else mattered.
After all, everyone has their secrets, and Ye Fan was no exception.
If he was willing to share, she was willing to listen.
If not, it was okay too, she wouldnt suspect anything. Of course, she hadnt had enough time to feel grateful.
Of course its true. Lets go, Ive thought of a solution. Just dont get too excited too soon. Im not sure it will work, but theres no harm in trying, right? And if it seeds, great, but if it doesnt, dont worry, okay? Ye Fan said.
This girl had the habit of overthinking, creating unnecessary trouble for herself.
Yep, Im fine, Ye Fan, dont worry. I can ept whatever oue. Lets hurry to the hospital. Whatever the solution, its worth trying, Bai Susu said, her small face full of excitement.
She believed in Ye Fan!
She also believed in Ye Fans abilities.
In Bai Susus heart, Ye Fan was someone incredible, someone who could do anything.
Her grandfather would definitely wake up.
Okay, then lets go! Ye Fan nodded.
~~~
In the hospital
When Bai Susu and Ye Fan arrived, they happened toe across Bai Ao and Sun Jiao, Bai Ren and Zhao Yan all there, looking quite troubled.
She didnt know what had happened.
When Bai Susu saw this scene, she frowned but didnt say anything.
Susu, youre here, Bai Ao said to Bai Susu with an embarrassed smile as soon as he saw her.
There was no helping it. The situation between him and his daughter had deteriorated this far, and he felt powerless.
The damage was irreparable.
So, he could only react this way.
When Sun Jiao saw Bai Susu, her eyes reddened, but she remained silent, continuously staring at Bai Susu, who paid her no mind.
Bai Ren and Zhao Yan found this scene somewhat interesting.
Heh, this was a reason for them to be pleased.
After all, Bai Group had now been acquired by Ye Fan, who was at Bai Susus side. The only reason it was still called Bai Group was that the Old Master Bai had not yet woken up, and they were waiting for his verdict.
They were curious about what he would think.
However, they could guess that Ye Fan liked Bai Susu and their marriage was a done deal, unchangeable.
In the end, Bai Group would still end up in Bai Susus hands, their big brothers child.
Although there were many who were discontent, with relentless Ye Fan there, no one dared to stir trouble.
Anyway, the rtionship between his big brother and Bai Susu was now like this, all that was left was to wait for Old Master Bai to wake up and see if there was any chance for change.
But from the looks of it, the chances of him waking up seemed slim.
Susu, Im d youre here. You need to know, we and your parents were called over by the doctor, who said something about paying for medical expenses, and were not sure if the treatment should continue. The previous payments for medical costs have been exhausted, and since we and your father have all left thepany, where could we possibly get the money for your father, your grandfathers medical bills? Zhao Yan then spoke up with some dissatisfaction.
She had a point!
Bai Group had just been taken over by Ye Fan, and they had all been ousted from thepany.
After all, although the name hasnt changed, Bai Group is now Ye Fans; he controls all the shares.
So, when the doctor asked them to pay for medical expenses, where would the moneye from?
Even if there was any, it couldnt be used to pay.
With Old Master Bai, whether he could even wake up was a question.
If he cant wake up, then wouldnt that money have been wasted?
Besides, theyve already started their own small businesses and need money for that, so where would they get extra to pay for the old mans treatment?
Its not about being unfilial; its about having no other choice.
Susu, its the same with your dad here. After leaving thepany, weve started other small ventures, and have already used up some savings, so, for your grandfather, my dad, we have no money for the medical fees. Were discussing who should take Old Master Bai home! Bai Ao, Susus father, said at that moment.
Yes, taking him to their own home was definitely not an option!
But to ask his younger brother to take him was also something the other party was certainly reluctant to do.
What should they do!
Bringing him home would also mean dividing their attention to care for Old Master Bai, who had that much time to spare?
Old Master Bais vi was still there, untouched.
They didnt dare touch or even think about it, after all, if, by any chance, Old Master Bai really did wake up, and found out that his old home had been picked clean by them, he would surely kill them!
Thinking about it, sending Old Master Bai to the old vi to be taken care of seemed like a good idea since there were servants there, but it was a bit
Bai Susu observed these few people and listened to their words, bing so angry that she almost exploded on the spot!
Just look at the things theyre saying.
Are these even human beings!
The grandfather raised them, supported their education, employment, marriages, and children; now, when the grandfather falls ill, no one wants to care for him or spend money. Are these his children!
How could they face the grandfather like this!
How could they be so unfilial!
Bai Susu felt sadness for her own grandfather.
She truly had not expected her father and second uncle to be such people.
It was even more disappointing to her.
Ye Fan looked at the two couples and also felt incredibly disgusted.
It was unthinkable that during Old Master Bais illness, both the eldest son and the second son acted as if they had no rtions, unwilling to take care of him or even pay for continued medical treatment. It was truly disheartening!
Old Master Bais entire life was honestly
s!
Ye Fan had found some information: Old Master Bai, formally known as Bai Zhentian, lost his wife to childbirthplications when having their third daughter. Then, left with a pair of sons and one daughter, he built everything from scratch, raised three children without remarrying, truly caring for them.
Often, having a stepmother means having a stepfather.
Or having a stepfather means having a stepmother!
There are not many who truly treat someone elses children kindly, and it also depends on luck whether one can meet such a person.
Bai Zhentian worried that his children would suffer or face grievances in the future, so he chose not to remarry.
Thus, Old Master Bai truly poured his heart and soul into raising his children, but his children are chillingly disappointing,
making a big fuss over mere medical fees.
At this moment, Ye Fan even felt some pity for Old Master Bai.
Indeed, the human heart isplicated.
You, you, you treat grandfather like this? Bai Susu trembled with rage, pointing at her second uncle and father, angrily eximing.
The grandfather had been so good to them in the past.
Now, the grandfather is ill, lying here, and these people are unwilling to continue paying for treatment or to take care of him. Are they even human?
Utterly unfilial!
When grandfather was awake, he treated you all so well, devotedly raising you. And now, is this how you repay him?
You are the epitome of unfilial children! Bai Susu said.
She was so angry she felt like her lungs might explode!
She felt it was so undeserved for her own grandfather!
Her grandfather had worked hard for most of his life for their sake!
But now, when he needed them, they showed their true colors like this~!

Xiaotian mustnt be told either, this guy has a big mouth, hell bber all over the ce, Fang Dajian immediately said, looking at the drunken Zhao Xiaotian.
Ye Fan was a bit stunned.
Actually, Zhao Xiaotian is really a good guy.
He can also tell whats important and whats not.
The thing between Bai Susu and himself, Zhao Xiaotian knew about it too, and after I told him, he kept it a secret.
Now, nobody in the school knows about it.
Could it be that Fang Dajian has some misunderstanding about Zhao Xiaotian?
But now is not the time to exin, what he really wants to know is who Fang Dajian has fallen for.
Okay, I wont tell. Look at this guy, sleeping like a pig; rest assured, no need to worry! Ye Fan gave his word.
Who said Im like a pig, hmm~~ hmm~~ good wine, another ss~ keep iting, lets drink merrily,~ dont stop, drink~~ Zhao Xiaotian mumbled as hey on the table.
You see, this guy is just bbering nonsense because hes drunk! Ye Fan said helplessly as he nced at Zhao Xiaotian.
This guy, he cant hear anything we say, but if you say he looks like a pig, he hears that.
Thats too much!
Thought hes so drunk he knows nothing!
And now he even knows he looks like a pig and wants to argue!
Just tell me, is it someone from mypany? Ye Fan asked.
This is gonna kill me.
For the first time, he felt that the decisive Fang Dajian had be so indecisive.
Its someone from yourpany, someone you know, Fang Dajian nodded.
You might as well have kept quiet, everyone in mypany Ive seen a few times, of course, I know them! Ye Fan said.
Couldnt you give some useful information?
Who is it exactly,e on, say it, youre gonna drive me crazy! Ye Fan said angrily as he looked at Fang Dajian.
This guy, is he going to speak or not?
What is this, who are we joking around with?
Im saying, to be honest, I think Im not worthy of her, shes too outstanding, and I feel a bit inferior, but I truly like her. Its just that, I dont know if she likes me back! Fang Dajian said with struggle.
I know it, I know who youre talking about, is it Jenny, Im sure its her! Ye Fans eyes sharpened, and he slowly spoke.
Ye Fan, how did you know, is it really that obvious? Fang Dajian looked at Ye Fan in shock.
I havent even said her name yet, and you guessed it?
Isnt that too amazing?
Once you mentioned it, I guessed it was her. After all, she is indeed very outstanding. Of course, you shouldnt feel inferior. I support you, brother. If you want to pursue her, go for it boldly and aim to make her your wife! Ye Fan encouraged with a smile.
Just now, he was just trying to bait Fang Dajian.
He hadnt expected to guess correctly just by a casual remark.
Jenny is a nice person.
But I reckon it will be a bit difficult to actually win her over.
However, this brother of mine isnt bad either.
He looks quite handsome, with his wheatish healthy skin.
Whats more important is that this brother has muscles, and not just any, but a six-pack, though I, Ye Fan, also have abs, I dont look as strong as Fang Dajian,
a bit stronger, it looks really safe!
I believe, winning over Jenny shouldnt be a problem.
He was determined to cheer his brother on.
Dont lose hope, you havent even started pursuing her yet, remember, go for it with all your heart, no matter the oue, never give up on yourself. Look, you provide a strong sense of security, and youre also very handsome. Wheatish skin, thats something others cant easily achieve, Ye Fan encouraged Fang Dajian.
Mhm mhm, Ill listen to you! Fang Dajian nodded.
He would show his sincerity!
Of course, remember this, my brother is notcking, youre well-matched with her, Jenny. Come on, to your love, cheers! Ye Fan raised a toast.
Ye Fan had never imagined that when he initially asked Jenny to work with his brother Fang Dajian, one day, his brother would fall for this siren of the professional world.
Jenny was great in every aspect, but it was unclear whether she could be sessfully pursued by Fang Dajian.
Starving, he couldnt help feeling worried.
This was, after all, Fang Dajians first time falling for a girl, and if he failed, the blow to him would certainly be huge.
Of course, matters of the heart are not for outsiders to interfere with, although they might offer advice, the main thing still depends on the feelings of the two people involved.
Ye Fan felt worried in his heart, but he didnt show it.
Okay, cheers! Fang Dajian said with a happy smile.
When he heard what Ye Fan said, he felt full of confidence.
No matter sess or failure, he had to try.
He truly liked Jenny, so to chase happiness, he decided to make an effort and show his sincerity in pursuing her.
He wanted to protect Jenny for a lifetime!
The two drank a few more sses and ate some skewers before finally calling it a night.
Fang Dajian wasnt very drunk, he helped Zhao Xiaotian back to the guest room, while Ye Fan went back to his room alone, took a shower, and fell asleep in bed.
The next day, before the sky was lit, there was a lot ofmotion outside!
The sound of firecrackers, along with various other noises.
Ye Fan woke up suddenly.
Right, today is my big day, the wedding day! he thought and immediately started washing up.
With a handsome three-seven hair parting, he dressed in a suit, tied his bowtie, and stepped out of the room.
As soon as he left his room, he was whisked away by the stylist and makeup artist.
Hey, Im a boy, I dont need makeup, just do it for Susu, Ye Fan quickly said.
If they put makeup on him, that would be utterly embarrassing.
What makeup is needed for a boy?
Besides, he wasnt ugly to begin with, even somewhat handsome.
Well just tidy up your eyebrows; dont worry, its just a simple touch-up, the stylist said.
Alright then! Ye Fan nodded his head.
Trimming eyebrows was eptable.
But makeup was not!
When Ye Fan looked again, he realized he had arrived at Bai Susus room.
Then, he saw Bai Susu sitting in the chair, with two makeup artists working on her makeup and a stylist fixing her hair.
They both saw theughter in each others eyes.
Soon, Ye Fan was finished, as it was just a matter of trimming his eyebrows, which took only a few minutes!
Ye Fan wanted to stay inside for a bit longer to watch Bai Susu get made up, but the makeup artists and stylist ruthlessly pushed him out and locked him outside.
Under the pretense that he must not disturb the bride as she gets ready.
At that moment, Ye Fan returned to his own room and brought out the prizes gifted by the System, the Phoenix Cheongsam and the Phoenix Hairpin, both in arge paper box. He hadnt had the chance to open them before knocking on Bai Susus door, asking someone to take the clothes inside for the bride to wearter.
As for the other prizes, they were waiting to be exchanged during the officiants announcement.
I say, Fan, what are you still doing here? The guests out front are getting anxious, Zhao Xiaotian said, seeing Ye Fan wandering about and immediately pulling him along.
I dont know what to do; this is my first time as a groom, and it seems like Im not needed anywhere! Ye Fan expressed his confusion.
In the past, weddings he saw were done one way or another, but this was different.
After all, those were ceremonies in viges, small towns; here, among the high society, he was lost!
Follow me! Zhao Xiaotian was at his wits end.
It turned out that the groom himself was also confused.
If everyone was confused, what were they to do?
If the main man himself didnt know what to do, the others were even more at a loss.
But it made sense to find Old Master Bai, who was sure to know the proper proceedings.
Dragging Ye Fan along, Zhao Xiaotian went to look for Old Master Bai.

Chapter 163: Chapter 126 Susu, I Have an Impulse Right Now! [Big Chapter, 5000 Words]_1
Mr. Ye, do you take Miss Bai Susu standing before you to be your wife, to apany her for the rest of your lives together through sickness and health, through good times and bad?
The host looked at Ye Fan and asked solemnly.
I do! Ye Fan gazed into Bai Susus eyes, which were filled with a fervent radiance.
He had waited for this day for far too long!
Of course, he did!
Miss Bai Susu, do you take the Mr. Ye Fan standing before you to be your husband, to never leave his side and apany him for life through sickness and health, through good times and bad? The host turned his head and looked at Bai Susu as he asked again.
I do! Bai Susu nodded, with tears glistening in her eyes.
Finally, they could be together, rightfully and openly!
Well, now I pronounce that after the exchange of wedding rings, you are officially husband and wife! I wish you centuries of perfect harmony! After the host finished, apuse broke out again.
The crowd below also began to p along.
Ye Fan took out the couples starlight wedding rings he had prepared for a long time and slowly slid it onto Bai Susus finger.
Bai Susu picked up another ring and put it on Ye Fans finger herself.
After that, Ye Fan took out the starlight jewelry set and personally adorned Bai Susu with it.
Earrings, a ne, and a braceletall were put on.
For some reason, Bai Susu felt her body be much lighter, and her senses sharpened.
What kind of stone was this? It appeared to be jet ck, but inside, it seemed to twinkle with stardustsuch a mystical stone.
It resembled jade, but it wasnt jade.
Do you like it? Ye Fan asked.
I like it, I like everything you give me! Bai Susu nodded.
Thats good. This set is unique, the only one of its kind, representing my love for you, which is unique and unchanging! Ye Fan spoke again, with deep emotion.
Mm-hmm. Bai Susu nodded.
Kiss, give us a kiss! Someone from the crowd below shouted out.
Then everyone started chanting along.
Kiss!
Kiss!
Bride and groom, kiss!
Make it real, give us a kiss, were all waiting!
Exactly, weve been waiting so long the flowers have wilted!
Kiss for five minutes!
No, five minutes is too short, make it ten minutes, Ill keep the time for you!
Ten minutes is still too short, we want to see fifteen minutes!
No, twenty minutes!
Are you a man or not, make it half an hour!
Good lord, they were each more ruthless than thest!
Bai Susus cheeks blushed red, these people were really going too far!
So long, they wanted her to
Ye Fan looked at Bai Susu, feeling a bit helpless.
In the past, a kiss was nothing!
But now, in front of family and friends, how could they?
He was feeling shy too!
Both saw the embarrassment in each others eyes, yet, if they didnt kiss, the crowd below would not let it go.
There was no choice!
Ye Fan encircled Bai Susu in his arms, one hand around her waist, the other holding the box of the starlight set to block their faces
Bai Susus eyes widened in surprise; she hadnt expected this.
Look, they kissed, they kissed! Even though we cant see it, we know it happened!
Ye Fan, are you still my brother? Not even letting us see, we want to see the kiss! Dont block it!
Thats really not cool!
As Ye Fans parents, they shook their heads helplessly.
Of course, Bai Susus parents also rarely showed a hint of a smile.
Bai Zhentian watched and nodded slowly, he thought the young man was quite clever.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The ceremony ended quickly.
Next was the toasting.
Ye Fan took Bai Susus hand and they returned to the room to help her change her clothes.
Of course, Bai Susu went back to her own room, where stylists and costume designers were busy designing for her.
Ye Fan changed into a white suit and waited outside the room.
Inside the room
Bai Susu sat in front of the dressing mirror, watching the stylists and designers carefully unpack the gift box containing clothes sent by Ye Fan that morning.
She was curious about what kind of clothes were inside.
She looked on tilting her head.
The stylists and designers opened the box cautiously, it looked very luxurious.
Around the box, there was even a string of pearls, which looked quite lovely.
The moment the box was opened, both were instantly amazed!
So beautiful!
Bai Susu, curious, looked at their amazed expressions and immediately walked over.
Approaching the box, she saw the gift inside and fell in love with it instantly.
How beautiful!
This was the most beautiful cheongsam she had ever seen.
Miss Bai, this was sent by Mr. Ye Fan this morning. I didnt expect it to be this beautiful! the stylist eximed, looking stunned and impressed.
I didnt know Mr. Ye loved Miss Bai so much.
Its really enviable.
Yeah, look at this embroidery, its a phoenix. This cheongsam carries a touch of coolness, it must be made of the finest silk, and the embroidery is done by hand. Such skillful hands, and there are pearls and rhinestones embroidered on it tooits simply gorgeous. This must be the work of an international designer, the designer said in amazement.
This cheongsam was the most beautiful one she had ever seen.
Such exquisite craftsmanship.
This cheongsam, I believe, must be at least a seven-figure price, it could even reach eight figures. Its incredible. Miss Bai, why dont you try it on quickly? the designer said eagerly.
They couldnt wait to see it on her.
Chapter 164: 126 Susu, I Have an Impulse Right Now! [Big Chapter, 5000 Words]_2
Chapter 164: Chapter 126 Susu, I Have an Impulse Right Now! [Big Chapter, 5000 Words]_2
Then Ill give it a try. Bai Susus face was a tad flushed as she embraced the box and entered the inner bedroom, her room was divided; the inside served as a resting area, while the outside contained a TV and a double sofa for rxation.
In the inner bedroom, Bai Susu shed her clothes, eyeing her belly. Ever since she used the stretch mark cream Ye Fan had provided, her skin had returned to its pristine state, which delighted her immensely. Marveling at her t abdomen, Bai Susu was overjoyed.
Which girl doesnt love a great figure, wless skin!
She, Bai Susu, was no exception.
With utmost care, Bai Susu extracted the Chinese dress from the box and slipped it on. The moment the cheongsam touched her skin, she felt its smooth and cool fabric, which was sofortable.
Once Bai Susu had fastened the buttons, somehow the cheongsam she had initially thought was slightlyrge now miraculously fit perfectlyit was just the right size.
Unsure if she looked good, she walked out with a slightly anxious heart.
Outside, the two girls were wondering why it was taking so long, concerned that something might have gone wrong.
Just as they thought about inquiring, they saw Bai Susu emerge in an ivory-colored cheongsam.
The high slit on the thigh revealed her fair and slender legs, instantly captivating anyone whoid eyes on them.
The cheongsam on Bai Susus body was just right.
It showcased her perfect figure in its entirety, her delicate yet voluptuous body, and that waistline supple as a serpent, allplemented by her stunning beautyshe was downright exquisite!
So beautiful!
With such a figure, which girl wouldnt be envious? At a height of 57, slim yet shapely, she was truly lovable.
The stylist and the fashion designer were both astonished!
This cheongsam seemed to be made specifically for Bai Susu.
It matched her temperament perfectly.
Whats wrong, doesnt it look good? Bai Susu asked nervously.
The first time she saw this cheongsam, she found it stunning and was worried that she might not live up to its elegance.
That she might not carry the cheongsams inherent aura.
Seeing their stunned faces, she felt that perhaps she truly wasnt suited for the cheongsam, that shecked its unique charm.
Why arent you speaking? Its okay if I cant carry the aura; dont worry about it. Bai Susu spoke somewhat disheartenedly.
No, its not that, youve brought it to life, truly beautiful, and the aura is like that of a goddess. You dont believe it? Come and see yourself in the mirror! The hairstylist, a girl, spoke up.
Yes, its really beautiful. If you cant bring out its beauty, I doubt anyone else could. You should quickly check yourself in the mirrorits absolutely stunning! The fashion designer agreed, nodding, her slightly chubby face ovee with excitement.
She was telling the truth.
If Bai Susu couldnt convey the elegance of this cheongsam, then surely no one else could.
Bing somewhat cheerful, Bai Susu approached the mirror and was instantly stunned!
It really was beautiful.
See, now you believe what were saying, right? Ill do a great hairstyle for you that willplement your cheongsam perfectly. The stylist said.
Okay, thank you, both. This is the Phoenix Hairpin that came with the cheongsam. Bai Susu said, taking out a Phoenix Hairpin.
She had noticed the hairpin inside the box after changing her clothes and picked it up.
Both items seemed to be part of a set.
This Phoenix Hairpin isnt ordinary either, its definitely worth a seven-figure sum. Ill fix your hair and add the hairpin for an even more perfect look, the stylist remarked.
Thank you so much. Bai Susu nodded with a happy smile on her face.
She sat in front of the mirror while the stylist at her back worked on her hairdo.
Miss Bai, I think you are so fortunate. Of course, both you and Mr. Ye are outstanding individuals; only the exceptional deserve each other. The fashion designer, who was tidying up the clothes,mented with evident envy in her eyes.
Who wouldnt envy having a handsome and wealthy boyfriend?
Of course, now he was her husband!
Miss Bais husband!
Truly a source of great envy.
Striving together, excelling togetherits so very aspirational.
Yes, Ive noticed, Mr. Ye is very in love with Miss Bai, its evident from these items, and during a moment earlier, when Mr. Ye was looking at Miss Bai, there was a sparkle in his eyes. They say, if you want to know if someone likes you, you should look for that sparkle in their eyes when they see you; if theres a sparkle, that means they like you!
Its when we see that special someone that our eyes truly light up. The fashion designer continued.
Howe I didnt see anything? Bai Susu asked curiously.
She really hadnt noticed anything just then.
Of course you didnt see, you were facing him directly. Its only visible from the side. Also, Mr. Yes gaze was extremely gentle when he looked at you! The fashion designer girl spoke up again.
The hairstylist, busy with Bai Susus hair, didnt have time for chatting.
Her task at hand was to style Miss Bais hair beautifully to match the cheongsam she wore.
Look at what youre saying; I hadnt noticed that at all. I just feel that Ye Fan is exceptionally kind to me, always indulging me. Bai Susu said with a sweet smile, beaming with happiness.

Chapter 165: Chapter 126 Susu, I Have an Impulse Right Now! [Big Chapter, 5000 Words]_3
Yo, Miss Bai, you seem to be thinking about Mr. Ye. Who knows, maybe Mr. Ye is waiting for you outside the door, hehe, youre so lucky. In the future, if I have a boyfriend like that, Id wake up from sleepughing. The girl spoke again, her eyes filled with longing.
Sasha, stop daydreaming, even in broad daylight its not good! The stylist couldnt help but speak out.
The girl, nicknamed Sasha, instantly got a bit angry.
Hmph!
Just because she doesnt have it, she needs to fantasize.
Cant she have a beautiful dream?
Hmph, thats too much. Just because I dont have one doesnt mean I cant dream a little! Sasha felt somewhat aggrieved in an instant.
Okay, Im about to finish styling your hair. The stylist girl smiled, shook her head, and said.
Theres really no helping it.
They were colleagues as well as good friends.
Tsk. Sasha said, showing disdain.
Two minutester
Bai Susus hairstyle was done.
Absolutely perfect! The stylist said with a smile.
You look at yourself, how is it?
Its very nice, very beautiful, thank you! Bai Susu said to the stylist girl.
It really looked great.
A Phoenix Hairpin was inserted in her hair, matching the qipao she was wearing, both dignified and elegant.
Xiao Yue, your skills are getting better and better. When I get married, you should do my hair for free, okay? Sasha said to the stylist girl Xiao Yue.
Sure, no problem! Xiao Yue smiled.
The two of you have such a great rtionship! Bai Susu said with a smile.
Indeed!
Just like how she herself was on good terms with her cousin Bai Ruoxue and Jenny.
Bai Susu, seeing that everything was ready, opened the room door and saw Ye Fan standing at the doorway, in a white suit that enhanced his handsomeness.
Ye Fan hadnt expected that it would be Bai Susu who opened the door, and upon raising his head, he was stunned.
She was really beautiful!
This Bai Susu, he almost didnt want her to appear before everyone else.
She was just too beautiful!
The off-white color of the qipao made her look even more captivating and beautiful, with every frown and smile exhibiting elegance and grace.
Do I look good? Bai Susu nervously asked Ye Fan.
This guy, why isnt he speaking.
You look beautiful. Right now, I have an urge just to hide you away and admire you by myself. Ye Fan whispered into Bai Susus ear.
Youre so slick! Bai Susu rolled her eyes, looking absolutely adorable.
Ye Fan felt a tickle in his heart watching her.
Alright, we should head out now! Bai Susu looked at Ye Fan, unable to stop herself from reminding him.
Lets go! Ye Fan took Bai Susu by the hand and they walked out; the moment they appeared, they became the focal point of everyones attention.
Who would have thought that Bai Susu in a qipao could be so stunning!
The gentlemen present couldnt hide their amazement.
Ye Fan, leading Bai Susu, made an appearance before Bai Zhentian, and of course, there were also Grandpa Wu and Grandpa Jiang. After toasting to them, they turned to greet both sets of parents. Bai Susu nodded faintly to her own parents without saying anything.
She had heard the words spoken by her parents earlier.
With such a loud voice, how could she not have heard?
She didnt want to think about those things right now, so she let it be for the time being.
The two of them then went together to toast the bridesmaids and finally made their way to the groomsmen.
After toasting everyone with another round of drinks, they finally arrived at the center of attention where a nine-tiered cake had been set up.
There was also a tower of nine levels of champagne sses, which the couple filled with wine together.
Then they moved in front of the nine-tiered cake, slicing into it together with a stic knife.
~~~~~
The exceptional wedding continued until the afternoon.
Of course, some special guests had not yet departed.
They included Jiang Lei, Wu Rongkuan, Zhao Xiaotian, Bai Ruoxue, Fang Dajian, Jenny, and Ye Fans parents, among others.
Bai Susus parents felt there was no further need for them to stay, so they left.
The remaining guests prepared for the evenings fireworks event.
Ye Fan had organized a barbecue and fireworks show!
Getting married is one of the biggest events in life, a once-in-a-lifetime asion, so naturally, he wanted to give Bai Susu a grand wedding and an unforgettable one at that.
That evening, he had other programs nned as well.
Soon, Zhuge, Bai Qi, and others began setting up the barbecue grills and preparing lots of food.
Everyone gathered around the grills, leaning in towards the food.
Chicken wings, chicken feet, crabs, lobsters, eggnts, beef,mb, and a variety of other foods were avable to eat.
There was something for everyones taste.
Bai Susu sat on a bench, smiling as she watched everyone barbecue.
How is it, are your feet hurting? Do you want me to give them a rub? Ye Fan came over to Bai Susu, knelt down, and looked at her tenderly.
She had been wearing high heels all day, surely her feet must be ufortable.
Its okay, Ill be fine after resting a bit, no need to rub them, with so many people watching! Bai Susu said, a little embarrassed.
Its no trouble, let me rub them for you. Saying so, without waiting for Bai Susu to respond, Ye Fan took off her high heels and rubbed her bare feet.
Arent you worried theyll see and say youre losing face? Bai Susu asked slowly, her dark, bright eyes fixed on Ye Fan.
She was truly gentle at that moment.
For the first time, a boy had treated her like this.
Whats there to worry about? Im pampering my wife, they are just envious. How could they think its shameful? Ye Fan said.
Hmm-hmm. Bai Susu nodded obediently.
Wow, you two are so sweet together!
Were so jealous!
My cousin has truly married the right person! Bai Ruoxue watched the scene and said slowly.
Next to her, Zhao Xiaotians eyes sparkled with excitement as he looked at Bai Ruoxue.
Um, hello, Im a brother of Ye Fan, my name is Zhao Xiaotian! Zhao Xiaotian hesitantly introduced himself next to Bai Ruoxue, feeling incredibly nervous inside.
He had mustered all the courage he had.
All the courage of his life was spent in this moment!
Finally, Bai Ruoxue struck up a conversation.
Hello, my name is Bai Ruoxue, Bai Susus cousin. I guess Im a year or two older than you. You can call me Ruoxue, or you can call me Senior, since Im also in school! Bai Ruoxue said with a sweet smile to Zhao Xiaotian.
If hes the brother of her sister-inws husband, hes not an outsider.
Theyre all friends, and theyre all rtives.
Thats right!
Ruoxue, thats a lovely name! Zhao Xiaotian said somewhat goofily, feeling as if bubbles of happiness were floating around him.
Look, everyone, its the fireworks!
Bang, bang, bang, not far away, colorful fireworks burst into the sky.
So beautiful!

Chapter 170: Chapter 128 Dont Sleep, Wait for Me to Come Out! [Big Chapter, 6000 words.]_1
By the time they got home, it was veryte.
When they arrived, they saw Fang Dajian and Jenny hand in hand, sitting on a bench outside, while Bai Ruoxue and Zhao Xiaotian were talking about something, and the atmosphere seemed quite pleasant.
Ye Fan didnt think too much of it and quietly led Bai Susu back to their room.
After all, it was the night of their wedding chamber.
How could they let these disturbances happen!
These people were still there, probably because they wanted to tease the newlyweds.
How could Ye Fan give them that chance?
He wasnt foolish!
On such a beautiful evening, naturally, he couldnt let them spoil it.
Walking quietly past them and into the brightly lit castle, they moved so no one would notice them.
As soon as they walked in, a nanny spotted the two. Just as she was about to greet them, Ye Fan silenced her with a gesture.
Bai Susu sighed with relief.
At that moment, Ye Fan also sighed with relief, patting his chest to express how close a call it had been.
They were almost discovered.
That would have been the end of it!
The nanny nodded her head and turned to leave.
Ye Fan pulled Bai Susu quietly towards the hall.
Where have you two been ying sote at night? Suddenly, Father Yes booming voice rang out in Ye Fan and Bai Susus ears.
Ye Fan and Bai Susu exchanged nces and saw the shock in each others eyes.
They were exposed!
One can only wonder why Father Ye, who hadnt appeared earlier norter, came out just now!
Ye Fan even suspected that his father did it on purpose.
That he had been waiting specifically for the two of them.
It was over; it seemed there was no chance for a peaceful wedding night now
Ye Fans father, Ye Dong, was also very confused!
How did everyonee out all of a sudden?
What was going on here?
And what was with the resentful look in his sons eyes?
He hadnt provoked him; he had juste down to pour a ss of water and happened to see Ye Fan and Bai Susu. He merely asked a question, and this was their reaction!
Goodness, you two really know how to have fun,ing back at this hour, were you intentionally avoiding us?
Look, they were trying to sneak back to their room quietly. What are they up to, heh heh~~ not being honest, huh! Bai Ruoxue chuckled mischievously as she was the first to rush out, looking like a little devil.
She stood with her hands on her hips, ready to enjoy the show.
Zhao Xiaotian stood beside her, finding the situation amusing as he looked at the couple.
The two of them had probably been trying to sneak upstairs, but Uncle Ye caught sight of them and just asked a question, and thats how it turned out.
Look at their expressions; they were really interesting.
For sure, the couple must have felt awkward inside.
Oh my, youve finally decided toe back. Weve been waiting for you for most of the night. Did you n on sneaking back to your room like this? Jenny crossed her arms and smiled wryly at them.
Susu, youve learned to be naughty! Bai Ruoxue said, ncing surreptitiously at Ye Fan and Bai Susu.
Who would have thought her own cousin and Ye Fan would conspire to deceive them?
Thats really too heartbreaking!
A guy who favors his lover over friends.
No, more like a guy who favors his lover over his sister!
Her own dear cousin had been led astray by Ye Fan.
Cousin, I didnt, Im just a bit tired and want to rest early! Bai Susu exined awkwardly.
Indeed!
She was truly exhausted today.
Oh, if thats the case, then go to sleep, but let Ye Fan stay! Bai Ruoxue said to Ye Fan.
Humph, Ye Fan has really turned out to be rotten to the core!
So, no, she wouldnt let Ye Fan have his way!
Thats right, Ye Fan, youre a young man, surely you have the energy. Stay and chat with us for a while, why are you in such a hurry to sleep? If you had just said so earlier, is it because theres some hidden health issue? Jenny said with a faint smile.
That expression clearly meant, if you admit it, just say its that problem
If you dont want to admit it, then we all y together.
Ye Fan felt a wave of frustration upon hearing this.
What kind of friends were these!
Could they not keep theirments appropriate?
He had his wife standing right beside him. Such talk could cause misunderstandings, couldnt it?
And of course, his father was also present.
Couldnt the conversation be more reliable?
What was Ye Fan supposed to do?
It waste, and on their wedding night, who wouldnt want to sleep with their wife in their arms.
s, these people were not easy to deal with!
It seemed as if the night was wasted.
Fine, Ill stay! Ye Fan gritted his teeth and said.
Thats what I like to hear. You know, Im your cousin after all. How can you not give me face? Were all young people and its the perfect time to have fun, Bai Ruoxue said with a smile, some triumph in her voice.
Right, right, Ye Fan, lets just y for a while, then you can go back to sleep! Zhao Xiaotian chimed in.
Ye Fan reluctantly nodded his head.
He felt there was something odd about Zhao Xiaotians words, but they seemed harmless enough.
There was no other choice but to agree.
Thats settled then; Susu must be tired, go and rest. Well just chat with Ye Fan, Jenny said with a grin.
Hehe!
Who would have thought even the president would have such moments.
Well, he asked for it!
After all, they had to endure watching so much couples feed today, and their eyes had indeed been opened wide.
They had all seen it.
Online, there were full-screen disys of Bai Susu and Ye Fans public disys of affection.
This move was terribly harsh!
It was aplete wipeout.
To be fed dog food together, not bad!
Susu, you go back and rest. Ille back to the roomter, dont wait for me, just sleep first! Ye Fan said to Bai Susu.
Chapter 171: 128 Dont Sleep, Wait for Me to Come Out! [Big Chapter, 6000 words.]_2
Chapter 171: Chapter 128 Dont Sleep, Wait for Me to Come Out! [Big Chapter, 6000 words.]_2
Today, Susu has been busy all day.
That girl was already tired from wearing high heels, her feet were somewhat red and swollen.
He felt so heartbroken looking at her.
Alright then, Ill go back to my room, I can wait for you! Bai Susus face turned red, and she immediately went upstairs.
My sister is really tender, just look at her just now, I liked her so much, my heart was about to melt, Bai Ruoxue looked at Ye Fan with a face full of envy.
Isnt that so!
Truly gentle and considerate.
Look, she even said she would wait for Ye Fan.
It really makes others envious!
Lets go, lets chat outside, Jenny was the first to speak.
Fang Dajian shrugged helplessly.
Ye Fan was his good brother and also his good boss, but Jenny was his girlfriend, future wife; it wasnt easy to meddle in this,
helping either side was difficult indeed.
Ye Fan also saw it just now, the way Fang Dajian and Jenny were clearly in a rtionship.
Unexpectedly, his brother Fang Dajian really won Jenny over.
Not bad at all.
Impressive!
Bro, I cant help you this time, Jenny is already my girlfriend, and you are my brother, Im really in a difficult position. Im sure, youll be able to go back soon, Jenny wont be too excessive, Fang Dajian said.
He still, knew a little about Jenny.
Jenny probably just wanted to tease Ye Fan; she wouldnt ruin Ye Fan and Bai Susus wedding night.
Gosh, Da Jian, how do you know me so well? Jenny took a step backward, hearing Fang Dajian talking about her, immediately turned her head, and said with a smile.
Hum, she wouldnt let the CEO easily win the beauty.
Today was a day of great joy, and as long as it wasnt excessive, the bride and groom couldnt be angry; being angry wasnt good.
So, if she wanted to tease the CEO, it could only be today, after today, he would be her boss, the CEO, she had to keep a sense of propriety.
Hahaha, Ye Fan, look at us, we just wont let you get your wish, what are you going to do? Bai Ruoxue said with augh, clearly very happy.
Were they all paired up, leaving only her single? This made her quite angry.
We promised a lifetime of sisterhood, never to abandon each other.
Now, one by one they all got into rtionships, had boyfriends, all in pairs, and she was left behind, truly unhappy~
So much for sisterhood, they all left her behind.
She couldntin to her sisters, she could only be a bit dissatisfied with Ye Fan.
It was time to disrupt his good things, hehe!
Moreover, they were supposed to be teasing the room anyway!
Zhao Xiaotian patted Ye Fan on the shoulder, giving him an encouraging expression.
Father Ye looked this way and finally realized.
If he had been a little quieter just now, it wouldnt have been discovered.
That was his mistake.
But then, the rascal needed to be sorted out a bit.
Father Ye went back to his room feeling delighted.
He even hummed a tune, his mood greatly uplifted.
Over here, Ye Fan followed that person to the pavilion, where there was a barbecue grill with some barbecued food on it, and beer beside it.
Come on, lets continue eating barbecue and drinking beer, Jenny said, picking up a can of beer and opening it.
Drink less, you might get drunk soon! Fang Dajian said, with worry in his eyes.
A girls family should drink less.
Although he was here now, it was still better for her health to drink less!
Ill just drink one can, lets all cheers together! Jenny raised her beer and spoke.
Alright, just one can then, Fang Dajian nodded.
Dont worry! Jenny assured.
Alright, lets cheers together. I want to thank everyone here for attending the wedding. Im really happy that you coulde, and of course, youve helped me a lot, its been hard work! Ye Fan raised his can of beer and said.
Yes, its so good to have a group of friends like this.
Okay, cheers! Bai Ruoxue raised her can of beer and said.
To our health.
The crowd clinked cans and began to drink.
Ye Fan, from now on, you have to call me cousin, got it? Im now your elder, so you have to listen to your cousins words from now on and treat our Susu well. If I find out you dare to bully Susu, I definitely wont go easy on you, Im not merciful with my blows! Bai Ruoxue said.
Bai Susu was her dearest sister, the sister she cared about the most; if she was truly bullied by Ye Fan, she would definitely not hold back.
Hum, her lovely sister shouldnt be mistreated!
Rest assured, you wont have the chance, cousin! Ye Fan said to Bai Ruoxue.
Zhao Xiaotian, standing nearby, suddenly feltplicated.
He liked Bai Ruoxue and wanted to pursue her, but Bai Ruoxue was Bai Susus cousin, and since Ye Fan was marrying Bai Susu, that made Bai Ruoxue his cousin too. So, if he truly got together with Bai Ruoxue, what then?
He had always called Ye Fan bro before, right?
Wouldnt that just mess everything up?
Was he going to be Ye Fans cousin-inw or continue calling him Bro Fan?
This was a tough choice!
How could there be such a dilemma.
Zhao Xiaotian felt lost at that moment.
If Ye Fan found out, would he get beaten up?
After all, he had been calling him Bro Fan, and if he got together with Bai Ruoxue, wouldnt he have to start calling him brother-inw instead? That would make him a younger rtive.
Although the thought was somewhat exciting!
He feared he might get beaten by Ye Fan.

Grandpa, its okay, welle here and be with you too, and the children will too. With the four little ones here, youll be so happy! Bai Susu said with a smile.
Good, good, my great-granddaughters areing, haha! Bai Zhentianughed and said.
How wonderful!
The estate is about to be lively again.
I wont be lonely anymore.
I will have great-grandchildren.
Then, Ill have something to boast about with those old guys.
Its really cool!
Yeah, its going to be lively again soon, Ye Fan said.
Yes, just thinking about it makes me a bit impatient. Do you have any photos of the kids? Bai Zhentian asked, looking at Bai Susu beside him.
He was eager to see the photographs of his great-grandchildren.
Wondering which of the little ones they resemble.
Its really good!
I do, I took some full-moon celebration photos, I still have pictures on my phone. Ill show them to you in a bit! Bai Susu said.
Seeing her grandfather so happy made her feel very happy too.
Right, lets sit in the pavilion in the courtyard for a while and have some tea and snacks brought over, Bai Zhentian said to the butler beside him.
Yes, Master. The butler immediately hurried off to prepare.
The three of them sat in the halls chairs, chatting happily.
Bai Susu then took out the photos on her phone, which were transferred to her phone by the photographer when they took photos of the babies.
Now, thankfully, she had these.
Otherwise, grandpa really wouldnt be able to see them.
Look, these four little ones all look alike, look, they all resemble the both of you. Theyre almost the same, so fair and tender, just adorable. Bai Zhentian remarked while flipping through the photos on the phone.
The little ones are really good looking!
These little ones, they look just like you when you were little, Susu.
Really, Grandpa? I cant tell. I think they all just look fair and chubby, Bai Susu said.
Indeed!
I was also fair and chubby when I was young, and I was quite adorable too.
In the blink of an eye, I have children now.
Time flies so fast.
Back then, Grandpa was so young, and now hes an old man with white hair.
Thinking of this, Bai Susu felt a sudden pang of sadness.
Time always slips quietly through your fingers, and by the time you realize it, a lot of it has gone by, and everything from the past seems like another world.
Grandpa, tell me about Susus childhood, Ye Fan said as he leaned in closer to Bai Zhentian.
He was curious about what Bai Susu was like as a child.
Was she also beautiful, and was her nature as adorable then as it is now?
Haha, all right, Ill tell you about Susus childhood, Bai Zhentian said, seeming genuinely interested.
The butler also had tea and pastries brought over.
Grandpa, you cant tell the embarrassing stories from when I was little! Bai Susu earnestly looked at her grandpa, her face showing a hint of nervousness.
If he told the embarrassing stories from her childhood, what would Ye Fan think of her?
Silly girl, there are no strangers here, whats there to hide? Itll be good for Ye Fan to know, Bai Zhentian said.
Exactly, see, you must not even consider me your future husband, Ye Fan immediately said.
No, its not like that. All right, Grandpa, go ahead, I wont talk, Bai Susu said, a bit aggrieved.
Forget it, after all, I know about the embarrassing things from Ye Fans childhood too.
Those awkward moments are really funny.
Thats right, you know about mine, whats there to be scared of, Ye Fan said with a smile.
Actually, Susu has been strictly controlled by her parents since she was young. She always loved meat, and her parents controlled her diet, fearing that shed eat too much, get chubby, and wouldnt look good. So, she used to run to my ce because I would always have meat ready, like sausages, cured meat, chicken legs, fried fish, and so on. Many times her parents would take her straight back home, Old Master Bai said.
Later, when I found out, I scolded her parents, and this is how Bai Susu got to eat some meat, he continued.
And many times, she was forced to attend extra sses, have tutors, join art sses, etc. Those were Sususpulsory weekend activities. Whenever she didnt want to go, I would cover for her. Her childhood wasnt filled with many fun things, Bai Zhentian said with a slight sigh.
Bai Susus childhood wasnt a happy one.
Ye Fan felt very upset hearing this.
This girl Bai Susu never mentioned any of this to him.
No wonder that when Ye Fans mother talked about his childhood, she was especially interested and listened intently, her eyes full of longing.
Who would have thought Bai Susus childhood had been like that
I remember once during a birthday party for Susu, when she was still in elementary school, a little boy confessed his feelings to her, and what did Susu do? She beat up the boy right there, scared him off good.
You may see Susu as gentle and well-behaved now, but as a child, she was a real little terror. Back then, many people were afraid to mess with her; she was quite the violence. Now, though, she has changed a lot, Bai Zhentian said,ughing.
Chapter 146: 120 Meeting the Parents, Discussing Marriage! [Big Chapter, Over 7000 Words!]_2
Chapter 146: Chapter 120 Meeting the Parents, Discussing Marriage! [Big Chapter, Over 7000 Words!]_2
Wasnt that the case? As a child, Bai Susu was really formidable.
Back then, her peers were all afraid of her, yet they all liked to y with her.
Grandpa, why are you bringing this up? Bai Susu said, feeling a bit embarrassed.
These were old stories from the past.
She had forgotten them.
But to think that Grandpa still remembered these things.
However, now she neverid a hand on anyone.
Thinking of this, Bai Susu looked at Ye Fan across from her.
This guy, he better not think shes a violent woman!
I didnt expect little Susu to be quite a draw back then, good job on that tussle with the little boy. I never imagined my future wife was so spirited as a child, Ye Fan said with a smile, his eyes filled with adoration.
Psh, Im very gentle now, okay? Bai Susu retorted.
Alright, alright, haha, my Susu is shy now, Bai Zhentian said leisurely while sipping his tea.
This girl, having such a day.
In the past, she was never shy and was cold to strangers, especially boys; now, she was different with Ye Fan.
Being shy now was a good thing.
It seemed that these two truly loved each other and were bound to be happy!
Grandpa, stop it, have some tea, Bai Susu nced at her grandfather, feeling utterly helpless inside.
So embarrassing!
The three of them chatted casually for a while longer.
In the end, Old Master Bai rummaged for the old almanac and started looking at dates.
He wanted to pick a good day to get the two married as soon as possible to make it official.
And besides, he wanted to meet Ye Fans parents. Once the wedding date was set, he would personally go to fetch them, which would be wonderful.
Thinking about it, Old Master Bai became even more enthusiastic.
He was serious about picking a date on the old almanac.
Bai Susus cheeks turned a light shade of red, incredulous at heart.
The determination of her grandfather to marry her off was truly a race against time.
It was so embarrassing for her.
Grandpa, do you really need to rush this much? Bai Susu couldnt help but say, looking at her grandfather so earnestly.
Of course, the marriage between you two is a big deal. Its better to get married sooner, and once you have the marriage certificate, itll be official. Besides, with children on the way, you need to handle the marriage quickly, to take responsibility for both of you and the children, Bai Zhentian said.
He believed that both children were good kids.
But getting the marriage done was the proper way to be together.
The current state of affairs could invite gossip.
Of course, he could protect them, but that wasnt a solution.
Getting married sooner would also put this old mans mind at ease.
Grandpa, I know what youre thinking, but you just got out of the hospital. Is it really okay for you to wear yourself out like this? Bai Susu said, truly worried about her grandfather.
Seeing him working so hard over money matters, she felt a bit guilty.
She hadnt allowed her grandfather to rest properly, instead, he was still worrying about her matters.
She had grown up.
Yet she still made Grandpa worry about her. She felt very unfilial.
Silly child, I know my own body; dont worry. I still want to live a few more years, to see you have a second child, and to help look after the kids. So rest assured, I know what I am doing, Bai Zhentian assured her.
Ah, Grandpa, what are you saying? What about a second child? We arent even married yet, Bai Susus cheeks turned beet red as soon as she heard her grandfathers words.
Oh my, how embarrassing~!
Grandpa really was, talking nonsense.
He had made her so embarrassed she couldnt even nce at Ye Fan.
Without even being married yet, he was already talking about a second child and taking care of kids
Grandpa was really going too far.
Seeing her grandfather work so hard to find the right date, Bai Susu was truly
Grandpas right, we should marry soon. Im also in a rush! Ye Fan said with augh.
Watching Bai Susus face turn even redder than before.
This girl, getting cuter by the minute.
Look at her, blushing so much from just a few words.
Ye Fan watched, feeling a tickling in his heart.
Ye Fan, youre making fun of me too, arent you? Bai Susu pouted.
Hmph, these two were teaming up to tease her.
So irritating!
What to do!
She decided then and there, shed have to teach Ye Fan a lessonter!
Let him know her mettle.
No, absolutely not. Im just telling the truth, Ye Fan said, feeling a chill down his spine and quickly changing his tune.
You really cant upset Bai Susu.
Girls are known to bear grudges, after all.
If he went too far now, would there be any good days after they got married?
Thinking this, Ye Fan felt a bit cowardly.
Hmph, Im taking note of what you just did! Bai Susu dered, turning her face away and refusing to look at Ye Fan anymore.
Uh (o) Ye Fan felt wronged.
Found it! The fifteenth of next month, thats a good day. Its conducive to marriages, lets set it for then! Old Master Bai eximed joyfully.
That was perfect.
Butler, prepare the invitations right away. Announce that my precious granddaughter Bai Zhentian is getting married and invite them to join the celebration, Bai Zhentian said with a chuckle.
With the date set, everything was good.
Ha ha~~~
Next was the formal visit.
So soon, Grandpa? The fifteenth of next month is just over half a month away, and were getting married then? Bai Susu asked, her eyes filled with shock.
Chapter 147: 120 Meeting the Parents, Discussing Marriage! [Big Chapter, Over 7000 Words!]_3
Chapter 147: Chapter 120 Meeting the Parents, Discussing Marriage! [Big Chapter, Over 7000 Words!]_3
Isnt this too fast?
Im not ready yet.
We should have a preparation time of two to three months at least.
What can be done in just over half a month?
My grandfather just wants to marry me off quickly like this.
Its so heartbreaking!
Fast? I think itste, I was even hoping it would be in a week, but there arent any good days. The soonest good day is in half a month. So there you go, be content with a little over half a month!
Besides, theres not much to prepare. In two days, well invite Ye Fans parents over, and well have the wedding right here at the estate. This ce is big enough, much better than those hotels! Bai Zhentian said.
Ah, Grandpa, Im serious, isnt it too fast? Im not ready. Bai Susu said, her eyes wide in disbelief.
In just over half a month, Ill really be marrying Ye Fan. So fast!
My heart is filled with excitement, nervousness, unease, and confusion. Right now, it all feels so surreal to me, like Im dreaming.
What if I wake up and everything goes back to how it was? I really couldnt ept that.
Oh, what do you need to prepare for? You just need to be the bride, silly girl. Grandpa has prepared everything for you, to make you the most prominent, the most beautiful bride out there. After all, you are my only precious granddaughter; I wouldnt let you be wronged, Bai Zhentian said with a smile.
Look at this girl, shes so worried.
Must be the nerves.
Yes, Grandpas right, dont be nervous, dont be afraid, its alright, Im here, and we will definitely be happy, Ye Fan said as he gently held Bai Susus hand,forting her.
Excellent, just excellent! Bai Zhentian was extremely relieved to see this scene.
Two lovers truly about to be together forever.
How wonderful!
And he, the old man, shared in their happiness.
Thank you, Grandpa, I just cant quite believe this is real. Im scared its all just a dream and when I wake up, there will be nothing, Bai Susu said.
Yes.
She is very happy now, so blissfully happy.
Fear fills her heart, making it seem like a beautiful dream.
Silly girl, how could this be a dream? This is reality, it exists in truth, Ye Fan said as he stroked Bai Susus head, his eyes full of adoration.
But, Im really scared! Bai Susu said with a quiver in her voice.
Yes, she really is scared!
Silly girl, whats there to fear when Im here? Even if the sky falls, I will be standing in front of you, Ye Fan said.
Mmm, I really feel so lucky! Bai Susus smile blossomed radiantly.
So wonderful, this old man is moved to tears just watching, Bai Zhentian said.
At that moment, he seemed to remember himself back in the day.
That was exactly how he had spoken to Bai Susus grandmother then.
Back then, they were truly happy!
Unfortunately, ah!
But, seeing the children all well, Bai Susus grandmother would probably be very pleased.
The date was set.
Towards evening, Ye Fan called his parents,
and informed them about the situation here.
When Ye Fans parents heard that Old Master Bai had set a date for their marriage, they were overjoyed.
They even said they woulde to pick them up in a couple of days.
After all, the wedding was only half a month away.
And it was going to take ce right here on the estate.
Ye Fans parents were very happy when they heard this and even had a call with Old Master Bai.
They suggested bringing the kids over themselves, saying there was no need for pickups and the like.
However, Old Master Bai insisted oning to get them, and in the end, they couldnt refuse.
Two dayster, everyone set off for Jiang City.
They were driving themselves, so they naturally headed straight for Ye Fans vi.
They arrived at Ye Fans house just as it was getting dark.
From a distance, they saw Ye Fans parents waiting by theke in front of the vi.
Seeing them, Ye Fan immediately got excited.
He actually missed his parents and the kids quite a bit during the short time he was in Bo City.
Coming back now, he was incredibly thrilled.
The sight of his parents set his heart racing.
The car slowly came to a stop, Ye Fan and Bai Susu got out first, followed by Bai Zhentian; they had driven in just one car, with Zhuge staying behind to deal withpany matters.
Dad, Mom, Im back! Ye Fan eagerly approached his parents and happily announced his return.
As long as youre back, thats great, thats great. Youve lost weight recently, your face looks thinner, Mother Ye said, looking at Ye Fan with a heart full of concern.
Auntie, Uncle, hello, Bai Susu stood beside Ye Fan and greeted them with ease.
Good, good, you look thinner too. Have you not been eating or sleeping well? Is everything settled back home? You left so suddenly, we were really worried, Mother Ye said to Bai Susu with intense concern in her eyes.
Im sorry to worry you, Auntie. Everythings okay now. Oh, and this is my Grandpa Bai Zhentian. He came to pick you up, Bai Susu said, a bit shyly.
Good, good, haha, Mother Ye replied,ughing as she held Bai Susus hand.
Nice to meet you both. Your Ye Fan is very outstanding, Bai Zhentian said with a smile as he approached Ye Fans parents.
Old Master Bai, dont tter him too much. If you do, hell be too proud. Lets talk inside the house, it gets a bit chilly when the sun goes down, Father Ye said.
Chapter 148: 120 Meeting the Parents, Discussing Marriage! [Big Chapter, Over 7000 Words!]_4
Chapter 148: Chapter 120 Meeting the Parents, Discussing Marriage! [Big Chapter, Over 7000 Words!]_4
Looking at Old Master Bai, his eyes were full of respect.
He had heard of Old Master Bai, who had started from nothing and raised three children on his own.
In the newspapers and on TV, it was all about the legend of this old gentleman.
In Bo City, Old Master Bai was one of the top business tycoons, and Bo City was more than double the size of Jiang City.
Hey, lets go inside, were all family, theres no need to be so formal, Bai Zhentian said.
Indeed, Ye Fans parents were really good.
Otherwise, they couldnt have raised Ye Fan to be so outstanding.
What a good match of inws.
He had a sharp eye and could tell that Ye Fans parents were good people.
His precious granddaughter would surely be blessed in the future.
It was indeed a good destination for her.
Now, he could truly rest assured.
A few people thought about heading into the vi.
As soon as they entered, Bai Zhentian saw four little ones ying with toys on the fluffy carpet, crawling around, with four robot nannies watching over them.
Seeing this scene, Bai Zhentian was shocked!
Could robots take care of children now?
No way!
This was amazing!
Having seen many ups and downs, he had never seen anything like this.
But the little ones were so adorable.
With their pale, tender skin and clear, big eyes, they started to smile happily at the neers, showing their little white gums, making hearts melt.
These must be my great-granddaughters, so adorable, each and every one! Bai Zhentian was overjoyed and immediately approached the babies to pick one up.
Giggle~~ Giggle~~ The one being held was Little Second, and Little Second, looking at this strange old grandpa, wasnt shy at all and immediately reached out curiously to touch the old mans face, especially his mouth and nose, with great interest.
Such a mischievous little one, Bai Zhentianughed.
He really liked this sticky little baby.
Even more cute and beautiful than in the photos!
This child had great genes.
Truly worthy of inheriting their parents excellent genes.
When they grow up, theyll probably be a handful for the boys.
Hahaha~~ These are indeed my great-granddaughters.
How wonderful!
Ye Fan looked at the little ones and immediately picked one up as well.
He had really missed them these days!
Every day, he worried about how the babies were doing.
Of course, with his own parents, the robots, and so many people taking care of them, naturally, there wasnt much to worry about, but he still missed them terribly.
How have you been, have you missed Daddy? Daddy has missed you so much these days. Ye Fan held Little Third while teasing and talking to him.
Oh~~ Oh~~~ Little Third, Ye Yu, cooed at Ye Fan, opening his little mouth as if to say something, looking very amusing.
His clear eyes stared at Ye Fan without blinking, as if afraid to miss seeing Daddy with a blink.
Ye Fan loved it and kissed the little ones face, how sweet!
Bai Susu held Little Fourth and yed with him happily.
Little Fourth looked around as if wondering why there were so many people all of a sudden.
Seeing his mom and dad who had been gone for days suddenly appear, he was overjoyed and started tough with his mouth agape.
Eldest child Ye Bing was in Father Yes arms and was also extremely happy.
Everyone held a baby, sat on the sofa, ying and chatting with them, reluctant to put down the little buns in their arms, wishing they could hold them just a little bit longer.
The little buns were also unusually excited.
It wasnt often the little ones saw so many people; they smiled so widely they could hardly close their mouths, constantly looking up with ohs and giggles, either babbling something orughing joyfully.
The nanny had the food ready in no time.
All of them were too fond of the kids to put them down, letting them y on the floor while the robot nanny had the form ready early in the evening, feeding the children one by one.
Ding dong, congrattions host for preparing the form, feeding the babies form, Points +20.
Ding dong, congrattions host for preparing the form, feeding the babies form, Points +20.
Ding dong, congrattions host for preparing the form, feeding the babies form, Points +20.
Ding dong, congrattions host for preparing the form, feeding the babies form, Points +20.
My, oh my, Ye Fans heart bloomed with joy upon hearing the Systems words.
He hadnt expected that even this could garner Points!
With this method, amassing Points wouldnt be so difficult, would it?
Your familys robot is really amazing, it can even feed the babies form. This old man has never seen anything like it, today has truly been an eye-opener, Bai Zhentian said, looking on in surprise.
Robots these days sure arent simple.
Yes, it really takes a load off our shoulders, and, this robot seems to have its own thoughts, knows what to do and what not to do. It often starts cleaning the house when the children are napping, Mother Ye said with a smile.
Truth be told, she hadnt a clue how her son had managed to get this robot.
Hmm, indeed its very convenient, this robot. Ye Fan always likes to tinker with these gadgets, Father Ye couldnt help but add.
Bai Susu and Ye Fan, unusually, didnt join in the conversation, which was carried on by their parents and Bai Zhentian intermittently.
After the meal, they sat on the couch and started discussing wedding preparations.
Both of you, actually, I came here this time, as you probably know, to talk about the childrens wedding. You see, the kids are already here but theyre not married, havent even registered their marriage. Look, the 15th of next month is a good day, Ive checked. Why dont we just organize the wedding for these two then? Bai Zhentian earnestly asked Ye Fans parents.
No matter what, it was important to ask for Ye Fans parents opinions.
After all, raising a child isnt easy.
Considering Ye Fan was their only child, they surely must have worried themselves sick over him.
What parent doesnt love their own child?
Besides, these two had a child together already.
Sorting out the wedding sooner would make everyone happy.
I agree, the 15th of next month works, and half a month should be enough time to prepare. Lets do it! Father Ye nodded and said.
Thats fine by me, having Ye Fan marry a daughter-inw like Bai Susu is his good fortune. The two children are indeed a great match! Mother Ye remarked, ncing at Ye Fan and Bai Susu.
But inside, she still felt very sorry for Bai Susu.
After all, the girl had endured quite a lot of hardship.
Getting married earlier would be better!
It would spare them from idle gossip.
Girls may not say it out loud, but which one doesnt care about rumors and whispers?
Alright, then its settled! Bai Zhentian joyfully dered.
Old Master Bai, how much dowry do you want? No matter the amount, we will give it! Ye Dong, Ye Fans father, spoke up again.
He also thought very well of Bai Susu.
Thess had been through a lot.
No matter how much dowry was asked, as long as his family could afford it, he would give it without hesitation!
What dowry money do we need when these two are a match made in heaven? No need for dowry money. Besides, Ye Fan has helped our family a lot, Bai Zhentian interjected.
But when ites to getting married, its customary to give a dowry. Bai Susus parents Ye Dong asked again at this point.
Right, Old Master Bai said they didnt need any, but what about Bai Susus parents?
Their absence this time must be due to some unavoidable matter.
Ye Fans parents didnt think too deeply on it.
Raising a child is not easy, after all.
Being parents themselves, they definitely understood, which is why dowry came up as a topic of discussion.
Oh, dont worry about that, if this old man says no dowry, then no dowry it is. Were not going to worry about what others do for their weddings. Im truly pleased with your Ye Fan, we really dont need any dowry money. Rest assured, Susus parents wouldnt dare object. In the Bai Family, this old man makes the decisions, so you two can set your minds at ease! Bai Zhentian said yet again.
He could see that Ye Fans father, Ye Dong, was a straightforward man.
Quite good indeed!
Chapter 149: 121: I Forgot My Cousin Because of My Poor Memory!_1
Chapter 149: Chapter 121: I Forgot My Cousin Because of My Poor Memory!_1
Moreover, he was already aware of his two sons affairs.
He was very disappointed!
He hadnt expected his children to act like such parents.
Utterly foolish!
So, he decided to stop meddling in the affairs of those two sons altogether; after all, he couldnt manage them now even if he wanted to, so he might as well leave them be.
They were already in their thirties and forties. It was time for them to face the consequences of their actions.
Bai Zhentian would no longer concern himself with those unfilial sons.
After all, Bai Susu was his granddaughter, and he, the old man, had the final say in everything.
If anyone dared to contradict him, ha!
Especially Bai Susus parents, who had long since lost the right to control her.
Whats more, as for that dowry money.
Hadnt they seen how Ye Fan thought about acquiring the fine Bai Corporate Group and returning it to him? With such a grand gesture, did he really care about the amount of the dowry money?
Besides, he hadnt even epted it.
He had money!
Although thepany was no longer his, Bai Zhentian certainly wouldnt be poverty-stricken, begging for food.
After all, thepany was only a part of his assets.
He owned vineyards as well.
Not to mention, he was truly satisfied with a grandson-inw like Ye Fan.
Just look: if you wanted looks, he had looks, if brains, brains, if character, character. Anything desired, he had. Such a fine grandson-inw was hard to find, even with antern.
In the end, Bai Group was still managed by Bai Susu.
Originally, he had wanted Bai Susu to be groomed as his sessor, and now, it was almost a reality.
Bai Zhentian was a progressive man, not an old stubborn mule with outdated thoughts.
In todays society, every minute, every second, things are changing, and its better for ones thoughts to be a little forward-thinking.
Only in this way can one avoid falling behind.
Alright then, since we are forgoing the dowry, there will be no dowry. We will listen to you, Ye Dong, Ye Fans father, said.
Although he was surprised by Old Master Bais approach, he quickly epted it.
After all, having seen through so much of the worlds affairs, it made sense for the old master to have such thoughts.
What matters for the young couple isnt the dowry; whats important is their resolve to stay together for life and their hope for the future.
Moreover, both families were now on near equal footing, which was tantamount to being well-matched. Both families were enlightened and wouldnt nitpick over every little thing in the future.
Old Master, Im afraid of Susu being wronged. You know, Susu has already suffered a lot for the sake of our familys Ye Fan, Mother Ye couldnt help but speak up at this point.
Indeed!
Before this, Susu had endured so much for the sake of the children, silent and uining.
Now, with the marriage at hand and no dowry, she feared others might look down upon her, gossiping behind her back.
Moreover, there were still the children to consider. If there was no dowry at all, would others devalue Susu in the future?
She liked Susu very much and didnt want her to be subjected to gossip and nder.
Auntie, actually, Im fine; I really dont care about the dowry. Besides, my grandfatherspany was in crisis, and Ye Fan helped by acquiring thepany. However, he let me manage it, Bai Susu said.
Indeed!
Without Ye Fan, Bai Group would have changed hands long ago.
Now that she could manage it herself, she was very thankful to Ye Fan.
Although Grandfather always said that he no longer cared about Bai Corporate Group, it was, after all, hisbor of love. He did care a little, after all.
Its not about the dowry, you silly child. Im just afraid youll be criticizedter on, Mother Ye said, looking at Bai Susu. She knew Susu was still just a child.
For this reason, she was even less willing to let others pick on Bai Susu and gossip about her in the future.
A wedding happens only once; it has to be done properly.
I think we should do this: the dowry will be Bai Group, as Susu is managing it now anyway. Lets treat it as the dowry, Old Master Bai contemted and then said.
This was the first time apany had served as a dowry.
Moreover, everyone already knew that Bai Corporate Group had been acquired by Ye Fan.
Although it was Bai Susu who was preparing to operate it, the true CEO was still Ye Fan.
It seemed perfect to use it as the dowry.
That way, his granddaughter could manage it openly and with dignity, and the dowry issue would be resolved.
After all, they were essentially one family, so it would still belong to them.
They just had to announce it when the time came.
Doing so would also let everyone know how much they cherished each other.
After all, watching others dine on dog food was not an exclusive experience for just the few of them.
The more people who could join in, the better.
As Old Master Bai thought this, he grew even more resolute in his heart.
Not bad, I agree! Ye Dong was the first to dere his stance.
He had read about Bai Groups issues in the newspapers, which made quite a stir.
He had not expected his son to be so outstanding.
Truly, he lived up to being the son of Ye Dong.
This is good, I agree too! Mother Ye said with augh.
Taking apany worth hundreds of billions as a dowry was unprecedented.
His daughter-inw was up to the mark.
His daughter-inw naturally deserved the best of everything.
Now, wasnt that what was happening?
Thank you, Auntie, Uncle, and Grandfather for your concern about me! Bai Susu said, somewhat embarrassed.
These people truly care about themselves, considering things for their own sake in every possible way.
Bai Susu really felt that this was the family harmony she wanted.
I agree too, Ye Fan said, holding Bai Susus small hand tightly, his face filled with smiles.
What a great idea!
He liked it very much too!
All he wanted was to give Bai Susu the best and most unique wedding.
After the discussion was over, everyone started chatting about other things, or began ying with the children.
By nine oclock in the evening, the children were tired from ying and were carried upstairs to sleep.
Grandfather, youve been sitting in the car all day; please go upstairs and rest now. Your body has only just recovered, and you shouldnt overwork yourself or rest toote, Bai Susu said, her eyes filled with concern.
The grandfather had just recovered from a serious illness and after sitting in the car all day, he must have felt sore all over. Yet, he was here discussing their wedding matters, trulyboring both mentally and physically.
Bai Susu felt very heartbroken for him.
My body is still strong, no worries. Am I not just happy to see my inws! Bai Zhentian said with a smile.
Right now, he felt energetic and not tired at all.
Alright, Grandfather, please go rest, Ye Fan also said.
Yes, itste, and youve been sitting in the car all day; you must be tired. Go rest early, and we can talk more tomorrow, Ye Dong chimed in.
Looking at Bai Zhentian, with his white hair, and how he still worried about the two children, it was truly moving.
Bai Zhentian was really quite remarkable.
Grandfather, go rest now, Ye Fan said again.
You should rest too, both of the children are worried about you. We can talk more tomorrow, Mother Ye said with a smile.
Alright then, Ill go rest. You all should rest early too. If theres anything, we can talk tomorrow, Old Master Bai said, standing up and walking towards the stairs.
The child really has filial piety.
He had deeply felt it.
Indeed, if youre not family, you wonte through the same door.
The family all appeared so harmonious and treated others with such sincerity.
For his granddaughter to marry into such a family was her good fortune.
When she was young, she didnt fully appreciate the love of her parents; now, experiencing such kindness from her future inws, it felt like another kind of maternal love.
Alright, you all should go rest as well, Mother Ye said to Bai Susu.
These past few days, you must have been through a lot. You look a bit thinner and worn out. Ah, child, from now on this is your home. You can talk to us about anything that makes you unhappy, dont tough it out alone, Mother Ye said gently, touching Bai Susus head.
She had heard about it before.
After all, she would call her son from time to time to check in.
Her son had told her.
Ah, she really felt for Bai Susu.
Who would have thought to encounter such parents?
The child has suffered.
Anyway, Bai Susu is now her daughter-inw and also her daughter. She would definitely treat her even better in the future.
Its okay, I will remember that! Bai Susus eyes glistened with tears. At this moment, recalling everything from the past, she felt truly distressed.
Yet, she held back her tears.
Youre such a silly girl. Ye Fan is my child, and you are my child too. You both are my good children. Dont be so hard on yourself in front of me. If you want to cry, cry. I know you are strong and keep your suffering to yourself, Mother Ye said to Bai Susu, her voice filled with helplessness.
The child was always like this.
Thank you, I will remember that. Im really happy to soon have such a wonderful mother like you! Bai Susu said, hugging Mother Ye.
Yes!
Soon, Mother Ye will be her mother!
How wonderful!
What a silly child! Mother Ye said, holding Bai Susu and speaking slowly.
Ye Fan looked at this scene and smiled slightly.
How wonderful!
Theres always talk about difficult mother-inw and daughter-inw rtionships, but in his home, they got along really well.
His mother truly treated Bai Susu as her own daughter.
Father Ye nodded at Ye Fan.
~~
Alright, time to rest. Im heading to my room to sleep too! Ye Fan stood up, stretched, and walked towards the upstairs.
Tonight, Mother Ye and Bai Susu were sleeping together, mainly to help look after the children.
The children had grown quite a bit, making care for them a bit more challenging.
Upon entering, they saw the room filled with photos of the babies,rge pictures hung above the headboard of the bed, which were said to be extremely lovely!
The photos were just lying there, so I thought Id hang them up, Mother Ye said.
They had seen the babies full-month photos when they came, and now, they had been hung up.
Theyve been back for a while. I just didnt know where to hang them, hadnt picked the right spot, and always forgot because I was busy. But they look really good now! Bai Susu said, her cheeks brimming with surprise.
By the way, your cousin went home, Mother Ye spoke up at that moment.
Oh no, I totally forgot about that. My memory is terrible, Ipletely forgot about my cousin, Bai Susu became somewhat annoyed.
Wasnt it so!
When she returned, she felt something was off, but couldnt put her finger on it.
Now that Aunt Ye mentioned it, she immediately remembered.
She had forgotten her cousin!

`
No words were exchanged that night.
When Ye Fan got up, the sky had just brightened.
As he came downstairs, he saw Bai Zhentian and Ye Dong already awake, each holding a newspaper and reading.
Look at them, how alike they seem.
Could this be the life they like at their age?
Ye Fan, why didnt you sleep a little longer? Ye Dong looked at his son and asked.
Couldnt sleep anymore. Ye Fan smiled.
He had gotten used to it, usually waking up around this time.
Of course, there were exceptions.
In that case,e and have breakfast. Ye Dong said.
Ye Fan, your habit of getting up early is very good, the days ns indeed start with the morning for young people. Bai Zhentian nodded with approval in his eyes.
Nowadays, many kids love to sleep in.
But what they dont know is that waking up early in the morning is good for their body and their spirit for the day is much better.
Sleeping in is something that bes more addictive the more you do it!
Over time, not only is it bad for ones health, but it also makes a persons nature more and morezy and degenerate.
Grandpa, I know what youre talking about, Ye Fan nodded and said.
When they got to the dining table, the nanny immediately brought up the breakfast, consisting of steamed buns and a bowl of millet porridge.
Ye Fan, upon seeing it, picked up a spoon and started sipping the millet porridge while munching on the steamed buns.
A simple meal in the morning just to fill the stomach.
Ye Fan, I saw theres a Shallow Lake here and the chairs youve set up; do you also like fishing? Bai Zhentian asked slowly, his eyes lighting up.
You should know, he really likes fishing.
When he arrived here yesterday, the first thing he saw was theke, and he immediately felt the itch, his hands itching along.
What a great fishing spot!
Close to home, its convenient and satisfies the cravings!
Furthermore, its all fenced off, keeping some people at bay, which is better for safety too.
Bai Lao, you dont know, this rascal loves to fish, but I like it too. The feeling of fishing, well, its really quite something! Ye Dong spoke.
These days, when he is not taking care of the kid, hes by theke fishing.
However, the fish he caught were more than enough to eat.
Having eaten the fish and enjoyed the fishing, the feeling indeed was great.
Ye Dong even felt that he wasnt doing as well as his son.
Look, his son is doing so well, with a vi, fishing, apany, and so on
And there are bodyguards, nannies, and the like.
Ye Dong was truly envious in his heart.
Of course, he was even more proud, as this was his own son.
In the past few days, he had been experiencing this leisurely life akin to retirement.
And really, it was quite nice!
Who would have thought that the kid would know how to enjoy life like this.
Hahaha, I, the old man, really like it too. How about we go fishing together this afternoon? Bai Zhentian said to Ye Fan and Ye Dong.
This fishing
Once you start, you get hooked on it.
He was the same.
Whenever he had some free time, off he went fishing.
Fishing calms the mind and nurtures the spirit.
Sure. Ye Fan said with a smile.
After all, whether alone or withpany, fishing was always more fun.
All three of them liked to fish, which was just perfect.
Then its decided, Bai Zhentian stated, his aging voice tinged with excitement.
Alright, I have all the fishing rods and stuff here, and theke has big and small fish alike. We can have apetition, see who catches the biggest one. Ye Fan spoke again.
Thats possible! Ye Dong nodded.
I agree. Lets have a contest, as Ye Fan suggested! Bai Zhentian dered.
But, shouldnt there be a stake for the win or loss? At this moment, Ye Fans father, Ye Dong, chimed in, raising the idea.
A contest to see who can catch the biggest fish surely needs a stake.
Right, dad, what do you think we should use for the stake? Ye Fan asked.
He thought his dad made a very good point.
Bai Zhentian also agreed, looking over at Ye Dong.
Money and the like are too vulgar. How about something different? Lets say the person who catches the smallest fish helps the two victors wash their socks, how about that? Ye Dong perked up.
Thats a good idea!
Washing socks!
Its not vulgar and its fun!
This Bai Zhentian hesitated for a moment but soon gritted his teeth and agreed.
At his age, he had never washed someone elses socks before.
Of course, except for his deceased wife.
He had never washed socks for others, his status wouldnt allow it.
Ye Fan nced at his own father, knowing full well.
His fathers feet were notoriously smelly; in the past, once the shoes were off, the odor was quite pungent.
Each time, his mother would force him to take basin and all outside to wash his feet!
He had never expected his father woulde up with such a stinker of an idea.
Quite brilliant!
If one were to lose, wouldnt they really have to wash socks?
This
Seeing Bai Zhentian had agreed, Ye Fan naturally didnt have much else to say.
After all, if Bai Zhentian could agree, he had to as well, couldnt be squeamish.
Alright, then its settled. Ye Fan said.
Ye Dong was very happy, smiling broadly.
Yes, someone to wash his socks, that was good news!
Of course, he believed, being experienced and having fished here nearly every day recently, his own skills had improved quite a bit, so he was sure to win.
In Ye Dongs opinion, Old Mr. Bai Zhentian was also a fishing bigshot, after all, he had been fishing for decades, so certainly, his own son was going to lose.

Chapter 151: Chapter 122: Cant I just wash it! [Big chapter, 7000 words!]_2
Son washing socks for his father, thats only natural!
Of course, washing socks for Bai Zhentian is also reasonable. After all, hes about to be a grandfather.
So, his son couldnt escape this duty.
These socks, they were destined to be washed!
Ye Fan also felt that his dads look was a bit off, but he didnt think much of it.
The three of them made an agreement and established some rules before they came to a deal.
After lunch, the trio went to the shallowke, set up a stand and strung fishing lines.
Bai Susu and others had also learned about their wager.
They all came out to watch, the four little ones curious and looking around in their strollers.
You see, Susu, your uncles feet are incredibly smelly. If anyone had to wash his socks, theyd be knocked out by the stench, Mother Ye said to Bai Susu beside her at that moment.
Really? Bai Susu was somewhat surprised.
Could Uncle Yes feet really be that smelly?
Absolutely, why would I lie to you? His feet reek! Back in the day, Id make him prepare his own foot-washing water as soon as he got off work, wash outside, and only after he was done was he allowed inside. The smell of his feet was so bad it made it hard to eat! Mother Ye spoke, her eyes filled with visible disdain.
Alright, why are we talking about this? Ye Dong looked at his wife, who was exposing his shameful secret, and suddenly felt quite ufortable.
This was definitely not the right pot to stir.
Speaking up like this, how can he still act as an elder?
He couldnt be med for his smelly feet; he didnt want them to be like that either.
s, there was no solution!
Now, its much better, nowhere near as smelly as before.
Theres no one else here, whats there to fear? You,ing up with such a rotten idea as sock washing, I cant believe you thought of that, Mother Ye said, curling her lip.
You should know that often Ye Dong wouldnt even wash his own socks.
He loathed the smell of his own feet so much that hed often just toss his socks, wearing disposable ones instead.
I wonder whos going to lose this time.
If someone really ended up washing Ye Dongs socks, theyd be struck dumb by the stink!
I just came up with a bit of a wager, couldnt think of anything else, so this came to mind, Ye Dong said as he adjusted his bobber,
Bai Zhentian was also fidgeting with his float, only Ye Fan was leisurely baiting his hook, then scattering the bait; no need to chum the spot here, since the fish were already from their own farm, just baiting the hook would do.
Ye Dong and Bai Zhentian had already cast their rods, while Ye Fan was still working on his bait, finally adding some sticky powder and giving it a pull with the fishhook. Indeed, it worked.
Only then did he cast his rod.
The three men watched their floats attentively.
The hook had some activity, but it was just small fish nibbling away.
Suddenly, old man Bai Zhentian caught a fish, and with a lift of his rod, up came a two-finger-wide crucian carp.
Removing the hook, he tossed the crucian carp into the bucket, keeping it for making soup in the afternoon, his granddaughters favorite.
Next, Ye Dong caught a fish too, another crucian carp, which he unhooked and threw into the bucket as well, then baited up and cast out again; they both used red worms or earthworms.
Ye Fan used prepared bait, and although small fish were snatching at it, they were quite aggressive.
However, it quickly quieted down.
Ye Fan, sensing the time was right, hooked a grain of alcohol-soaked corn, and then cast out his rod again.
As expected, the rod showed no movement at all.
Ye Fan had used the prepared bait earlier to disperse the scent, enticing the fish toe closer, and now that the scent had spread, he switched to alcohol-soaked corn.
Little fish couldnt get at this corn, only big fish withrge mouths could take the bait.
So, if the float moved, that meant a big fish had taken the bait.
His corn was also on the smaller side, so any fish below five ounces would struggle to swallow it.
The three men stared intently at their floats. Over at Bai Zhentians spot, the fish kept biting, but they were just half-pound crucian carps.
Ye Dong caught a few fish for a while, but then nothing more!
That had Ye Dong worried.
Meanwhile, looking at his son, he finally felt satisfied.
After all, his son was just behind him, and even if he had caught a few little fish while his son was still without any catches!
