Chapter 200 How about you two have a fake marriage?
Including Chunliu and Xiahua, there were seven of them in total.
As soon as Ye Shishu entered the manor gate, a waiter greeted her and bowed, saying, "This humble servant respectfully welcomes Your Highness!"
His name was Sanshui, and Ye Shishu had met him several times already. Yu Chiling had told her that if she needed anything at the manor, she could just tell Sanshui. She had only recently learned that although Sanshui appeared to be a waiter at the manor, he was actually the manager of Ziqiong Manor.
"Let's go in and talk."
"Yes." Sanshui greeted them with a smile, like a waiter welcoming guests, "Gentlemen and ladies, please come in!"
Ye Shishu knew it was the same three rooms as last time, so she walked ahead, familiar with the way.
However, as she passed the corner on the first floor, she heard voices coming from a nearby room—
"Wen'er, that young master Feng is handsome, why don't you like him?"
“Grandmother, if you had told Wen’er a month ago, Wen’er would definitely have liked him. But now Wen’er has someone in her heart, so let’s just forget about the young master Feng.”
"You have someone you like? Who is it? Why haven't your parents mentioned it?"
"It's not convenient right now, but you'll know in a while. Grandmother, please stop worrying about Wen'er's marriage. Wen'er can assure you that no one will dare to say a bad word about the man she sets her sights on!"
"Alright, then Grandma will wait and see which family's son you've chosen!"
"whee……"
"Little sister, what's wrong?" Gu Simo couldn't help but nudge Ye Shishu.
Ye Shishu then put away her gossipy nature and smiled at her, "It's nothing."
She wasn't usually one to gossip, but after a chance encounter with Du Anwen and learning that she was getting a match today, she became a little curious.
Just as they reached the stairs and were about to go upstairs, a familiar voice rang out from behind them, "Your Highness! Eldest Cousin! Second Cousin!"
Everyone turned around.
Upon seeing Fan Yunying, whom they had unexpectedly encountered, everyone's faces darkened to varying degrees.
Seeing that none of the three siblings intended to speak, Gu Simo, in an effort to ease the awkward atmosphere, spoke first and politely greeted them, "Miss Fan, what a coincidence, you're also visiting the resort?"
She only learned about the disgusting things her cousin Fan had done from Ye Shijun on the day her father and Ninth Aunt got married.
Despite being engaged to her elder brother, she seduced her younger sister Shi Jun for her younger sister's dowry, even drugging him in an attempt to force herself on him...
Because she regretted breaking off her engagement with her elder brother, she tried to drug him again, but she didn't expect that her father and aunt would fall for the drug by mistake.
Although my father and Ninth Aunt are now happily married, we should thank her for being the 'matchmaker,' but Fan Yunying's thoughts and methods are truly despicable and vile!
No wonder the eldest brother used Li Yao to ward off this bad romance. Who wouldn't be upset if they met someone like that, who is also their great-aunt's granddaughter?
Fan Yunying smiled at them and said, "A friend invited me to go hiking in the mountains, and we agreed to meet here. I didn't expect to run into you all!"
Ye Shishu forced a smile, "Then Cousin Yunying, please have fun. We won't bother you any longer."
After saying that, she winked at Sanshui and then went upstairs.
Ye Shijun, holding Gu Simo's hand, quickly followed.
Now that they have received the Emperor's decree of marriage, they no longer hide from others and go about their business together. If anyone dares to say a word against them, Ye Shijun can immediately issue an imperial edict to slap them in the face. In addition, he gives outsiders the impression of being reckless and unruly. Anyone who dares to gossip about him is just asking for trouble!
Li Yao wanted to follow, but seeing Fan Yunru gazing at Ye Shiting with deep affection and expectation, she scratched her ear, then imitated Ye Shijun and Gu Simo, grabbing Ye Shiting's hand and heading upstairs, saying, "Young Master, hurry up!"
Ye Shiting took a long stride, but his gaze remained fixed intently on her hand.
Fan Yunying seemed oblivious to how they avoided her like the plague, and even called out to Ye Shiting, "Big Cousin, I'll come find you in a bit!"
Although Ye Shijun didn't turn around, her words immediately darkened his face.
Food and wine are served.
Li Yao was undoubtedly the one who enjoyed eating the most.
Everyone knew she had a big appetite, and since Ye Shishu had invited her out to treat her to food, they didn't mind her wolfing down her food and eating heartily.
Ye Shijun poured two glasses of wine, handed one to Ye Shiting, and asked with a frown, "Big brother, we'd better teach Fan Yunying a lesson, or she'll really think you'll go back to her!"
Nobody knew that he actually regretted it.
When dealing with Gu Shiya and the others, we should have included Fan Yunying in our plans!
Ye Shiting took the wine glass, took a small sip, and said in a low voice, "It would be too deliberate to touch her now. If my aunt makes a scene, she'll be more troublesome than a shrew from the marketplace."
Ye Shijun nodded. "Alright, let's talk about it when we find a suitable opportunity."
Gu Simo suddenly suggested, "How about arranging a marriage for Miss Fan? Once she's married, she won't have any more improper thoughts about my elder brother!"
Ye Shijun sneered, "Xin'er, she was still engaged to my elder brother when she seduced me! Do you think a woman like that will behave herself after she gets married? You're underestimating her!"
Gu Simo thought of something and looked at Li Yao, who was engrossed in eating meat, "Why don't we have Big Brother and Yao'er have a fake marriage? That would definitely make the Fan family give up!"
The atmosphere froze instantly after she said that.
The next moment, laughter rang out from Ye Shijun and Ye Shishu.
Ye Shiting glared at Gu Simo with a dark expression. "Do you think everyone's playing house like you and Shi Jun? If you come up with any more crazy ideas, you'd better go back and face the wall!"
Gu Simo immediately shrank her neck and lowered her head.
Ye Shijun felt sorry for his wife and quickly said, "Brother, Xin'er means well. Why are you being so fierce? Be careful not to scare her!"
Ye Shiting pointed at the two of them and said, "You two are both so unreliable!"
Ye Shijun chuckled and suddenly winked at Li Yao, "Big brother, look, Miss Li doesn't have any objections!"
Li Yao raised her head, her small face covered in oil from the nose down. She blinked and looked at everyone's expressions before turning to Ye Shiting and saying, "Young Master, you provide me with food and lodging, and I'll do anything you ask."
This time, not only Ye Shijun and Ye Shishu laughed, but Gu Simo couldn't help but laugh along with them.
Ye Shiting glared at Li Yao and said irritably, "What are you talking about? Eat your food!"
"Oh." Li Yao lowered her head again and continued to focus on the food.
After eating and drinking in the room for about an hour, as the sun was about to set, Ye Shishu was about to suggest going up the mountain to watch the sunset when Sanshui suddenly came in to report, "Your Highness, a Miss Du says she knows you and would like to meet you."
Ye Shishu knew who it was without even asking.
"Please invite her up."
"Yes."
Not long after, Sanshui pushed the door open again.
Everyone inside looked towards the doorway.
Besides Du Anwen, Fan Yunying also followed her in.
