The poisonous woman is frivolous, please be gentle with me, Your Highness.

Chapter 96 Meeting the Old Lady

Zhao Yiran never expected that even her aunt would not help her. Although her aunt actually gave away something she wanted last time, she did not think that her aunt did not like her.

But now, she wasn't sure.

In an instant, the tears that had been held back could no longer be controlled and fell down, forming a layer of silver beads.

Mrs. Zhao frowned when she saw this, but she was more helpless, "Why don't you apologize to the two of you!"

"No need." Ye Beiling's cold voice sounded, "But the Zhao family should pay attention to their daughter's upbringing."

Zhao Yiran's face turned even paler in an instant, and she looked at Ye Beiling in disbelief. He would actually say that. If this were to get out, who would dare to discuss marriage with her again?

This is a heart-breaking act.

Zhao Yiran's mind went blank. Madam Zhao quickly pulled her back and left after thanking Ye Beiling. She knew that the Third Prince was already giving face to the Zhao family by doing this, and as long as they didn't say anything about what happened today, no one outside would know.

"Were you venting your anger on me by doing that just now?" Bai Qianxi spoke after everyone left.

"No," Ye Beiling shook his head and turned his face away, "Don't think too much."

Although he said this, the expression on his face betrayed everything. Bai Qianxi did not argue with him about this topic, but she felt a little touched in her heart.

"So, do you have anything else tonight?"

"No."

"That's fine." Bai Qianxi was satisfied. Since everything was fine, he would not leave tonight. In this way, she could have a moving spring for the whole night.

When she wakes up tomorrow, she will be full of energy again!
Happy!
Thinking of this, Bai Qianxi didn't hesitate at all and hugged Ye Beiling's arm tightly again. In a short while, she felt sleepy.

Even Ye Bei Ling didn't expect that she would fall asleep so quickly!
Feeling this warm breath, Bai Qianxi slept very happily, and even had a sweet dream. She didn't know what she dreamed about. She opened her mouth and mumbled something, but she couldn't hear it clearly.

Just looking at the other person's peaceful sleeping face, Ye Beiling felt a sense of satisfaction in his heart for some reason.

"This girl, she didn't even know to leave a seat for me." An imperceptible smile appeared on Ye Beiling's face.

Do you really want him to sit here all night?
He's not that generous.

Thinking of this, Ye Beiling put the person in without any hesitation and turned over and lay down.

The crisp scent of grass and trees lingered at his nose. When Ye Beiling was thinking about how to fall asleep tonight, the person next to him turned into an octopus again and imprisoned him tightly.

I don’t know why she likes hugging him so much and can’t leave him for a moment.

Ye Beiling thought so, and even though he felt a little uncomfortable being restrained in Bai Qianxi's position, he never thought of pushing her away.

He just kept his body stiff, not daring to move, until he fell completely asleep.

When the first ray of morning sunlight shone through the window, Bai Qianxi stretched lazily. She had a good sleep last night and did not even have a dream. It was the most comfortable sleep she could have ever had.

This is all thanks to Bai Qianxi's subconscious look to the side...

Ye Beiling was already awake, tidied up, and sitting aside, holding a teacup in his hand with a calm attitude.

Seeing her wake up, Ye Beiling put down the teacup in his hand and asked, "Awake?"

"Yeah." Bai Qianxi nodded slightly, thinking of her octopus image last night, she felt a little embarrassed, "Thank you for what happened last night."

If he hadn't come in time, she wouldn't have recovered so quickly.

“No need.” Ye Beiling withdrew his gaze indifferently. He just solved the problem of a meaningless woman. Was it worthy of her thanks?
Although thinking so, he secretly curled the corners of his lips.

Feeling quite good.

"Now that you're awake, get up quickly. Someone from the Zhao family will be here soon." Ye Beiling reminded. Speak of the devil, and here comes the devil. Bai Qianxi had just finished cleaning up when a middle-aged housekeeper rushed over.

"My humble servant greets the Third Prince and the Fifth Miss." The visitor bowed respectfully as he arrived.

It turned out that today, Zhao Zhao, the eldest master of the Zhao family, heard that the two of them had arrived and was about to come over to pay their respects.

"Do you want to see him?" Ye Beiling did not answer immediately, but turned to look at the person next to him.

Bai Qianxi thought about it and shook her head. She had never seen the old man from the Zhao family. On the contrary, she had not visited the old lady in the two days she had lived here.

"It's up to you. I won't go. I'm going to pay my respects to the old lady."

"It just so happens that Your Highness also wants to go see the old man and the old lady, let's go together!" Ye Beiling turned his head and looked at the housekeeper, "So that your master doesn't have to come."

"Yes."

The butler nodded to show that he understood, then turned and left.

By the time the two arrived at the front hall, almost all members of the Zhao family had arrived.

When they saw the two of them, Mr. Zhao and the old lady came out to greet them immediately.

"This old minister greets His Majesty the Third Prince. I didn't know that Your Majesty would come in person, so I didn't come to greet you from afar. I hope you will forgive me." As he said this, he was about to salute.

Ye Beiling hurriedly stopped him from speaking, "My Lord, there is no need to be so polite. You have been a soldier all your life, and it is time for a junior like me to pay my respects to you."

Having said that, he was about to help him sit on the main seat.

"Your Highness, how can this be done? There is a difference between the noble and the humble. You are the distinguished guest and you should sit at the head." The old man declined.

Ye Beiling smiled and said, "You also said that I am a guest. It is not reasonable for a guest to sit in the host seat, not to mention that you are the elder."

The old man couldn't delay, so he had to sit down.

But he looked at Ye Beiling with more satisfaction.

"It's a pity for the second son. Ever since his wife became pregnant, the fetus has been unstable and he has to take care of it personally. I can't come to see Your Highness in person. Please forgive me, Your Highness."

"You're too polite, old man." He would not blame him for such a small matter.

The two exchanged greetings, and the atmosphere became more lively.

Here, the old lady was also looking at Bai Qianxi, her eyes were kind and gentle, and she was more and more satisfied with the person in front of her. "I haven't seen you for a while, and I didn't expect that you have become more refined and your skills are unparalleled. You saved me in the past, and now you have saved Ran'er."

"I don't know how to thank you. Come, sit here, and let's have a good talk." The old lady pulled Bai Qianxi to sit down.

At this time, a cute voice came, with a slightly sharp tone, "Grandma, how could you let her sit there!"

In the past, my grandmother was so kind to me, and the seat next to her was hers exclusively. Why had it been snatched away by this bitch now?

Zhao Yiran's eyes were full of dissatisfaction.

"Ya'er!" Old Madam Zhao looked at Zhao Ya'ran with a hint of warning in her eyes.

Being looked at by the old lady like that, Zhao Yiran felt a little awkward for a moment, but she quickly remembered that she was her grandmother's favorite, and she felt more confident.

"Did I say something wrong? Grandma, Yaer just thinks it's inappropriate for Miss Bai Wu to sit there. There are so many empty seats here, why can't she sit anywhere else?" She insisted on sitting next to grandma!

Zhao Yiran looked at Bai Qianxi with hostility!

She was just a lowly concubine's daughter, insignificant. Why on earth could she snatch away everyone's favor as soon as she arrived?
