Chapter 779: Late Confession (4)

"Um. ."

Bai Suye responded and followed Ye Mu.

In the hall, only two father and son were left confronting each other.

Bai Suye was also absent-minded in the kitchen, fearing that Ferens would do something unkind to Ye Xiao. After all, the bullet in his body was shot by Ference himself.

"If you're worried, just go and sit quietly in the side hall." Night Mother saw through her worries.

"But, I still have to cook..."

"I really thought I wanted you to cook? No need. Just go ahead!"

"Okay, Auntie, I'll go over first." Bai Suye came out of the kitchen and walked slowly to the side hall. There was only a wall separating the side hall from the main hall, and she could faintly hear their conversation.

………………

Ference said in a bad tone, "Don't think that I don't know about you two when I am abroad, but I have always turned a blind eye because I thought you would have a measure of everything. But now you have brought it to me to show off. !”

"I'm not showing off." Faced with Ference's harshness, Ye Xiao's tone was always calm, without any excitement, as if he was just stating a simple fact, "She is my woman, you are my adoptive father, you are meeting It's a matter of time. It just happens to be convenient today."

"Your woman? What a joke!" Ference snorted, "What? Are you planning to void this contract again for your woman?!"

"No." Ye Xiao said, "Don't worry, since I promised you, I will never give up this cooperation. I will keep my word."

"Okay, then let me ask you - is the reason why she is approaching you now because of these contracts?"

Night Owl was silent for a moment.

Ference was so angry that he grabbed the pillow next to him and threw it at him, "You're out of your mind! You know she's here to play with you for a purpose, but you still dare to play with her! You're killing yourself. You are willing to do so, right? Do you have confidence in her? Are you 100% sure that she really won’t kill you at the last moment?!"

Ference was so angry that his voice was trembling.

Ye Xiao firmly grasped the pillow, but he could not answer his adoptive father's series of words.

He really wasn't sure.

For her, it was always impossible to figure out her thoughts until the last moment. She is too rational, and all her emotions may be nothing before her righteousness.

"I gave you this life! How dare you let a woman kill you again and again, Ye Xiao, you - you are simply hopeless!"

"At least, she hasn't killed me yet." Compared to Ferens, as a client, he was always calm and very calm.

"Okay, then let me ask you - if she really wants to kill you in the end, and her purpose is to kill you, what are you going to do?"

Ye Xiao pondered for a long time before speaking slowly, with a dull voice, "I hope she won't choose this way. Otherwise... it will be self-destruction."

He said the last four words very softly, but he bit them so hard. The hand resting on the armrest of the sofa was slightly tense.

"When the time comes, let alone her self-destruction, even you -" Ferens pointed at Night Owl with his finger in the air, "even you won't be able to survive!"

Ye Xiao didn't look afraid at all, and just asked: "If it turns out that she didn't want to kill me, and it wasn't because of the contract that she approached me, can my adoptive father promise me something?"

Ference snorted coldly, "Don't you get an advantage and still act like a good boy."

"That's our bet."

"Bet? You lost a long time ago!"

"Don't you dare to bet?"

"Don't think about using provocation, it doesn't work for me!" Ferens glanced at Night Owl, and after a while, his tone softened a little, "You say it!"

"Try to accept her."

Ference looked at Night Owl, "Accept her? Before asking me, you probably have to ask your brothers if they can accept her. 25 lives are not child's play."

"You are my father and my elder, so naturally I asked you first. I will talk about the others later."

"I think you are really possessed!" Ferens gritted his teeth.

"Then I'll take it as your promise."

"If she wants me to accept her, she must at least do something to make me truly accept her. Saying she accepts her is nothing but acceptance!"

the other side.

Bai Suye sat quietly in the side hall, a little stunned. In fact, she had always known that Ye Xiao didn't believe in herself. However, hearing him say it like this now, she still felt vaguely bitter in her heart.

seem……

Only when the contract ends this time and she doesn't take action will his trust in him be restored a little.

"Are you going to sit here and keep listening?"

A familiar voice came, and Bai Suye suddenly came back to his senses. She saw Ye Xiao standing at the door, staring at her with complicated eyes.

"You know I'm here?"

"I saw a shadow when you came here."

so……

What he said just now was probably meant for Ferens as well as her. Knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, he hopes that he understands the consequences of the choice.

"I'm afraid that I might cause trouble for you by coming here, so I came here to listen to you. Do you mind?" Bai Suye stood up and walked towards him.

He shook his head, "It's just the father and son talking about family matters, nothing to worry about."

"Yeah." She nodded.

The two people looked at each other with complicated expressions in their eyes.

However, they didn't mention anything to each other.

Those sensitive topics are kept deep in their hearts by their tacit understanding, **********.

"Then I'll go to the kitchen now. Whatever you want to eat, I'll make you one." She spoke first, breaking the uncomfortable atmosphere.

Ye Xiao's eyes were always fixed on her smiling face, and he said softly: "What I like is very simple, just make the tomato and egg soup you were good at before."

"Okay. By the way..." Bai Suye glanced at him, "What does your adoptive father like? I'll make something he likes too."

There was a slight fluctuation in Night Owl's eyes. After a while, he replied: "His teeth are not very good, and the servant usually likes to make him some taro."

"Taro." I have never made white millet leaves, but I should ask Aunt Ye for advice. "Then I'll go now."

Night Owl nodded.

Bai Suye was about to walk to the kitchen, then turned around, when Ye Xiao suddenly hugged her from behind.

She was startled.

His arms were across her chest, holding her very tightly.

At that moment, Bai Suye's eyes became astringent, and all kinds of flavors came out of his nose. It almost made her cry.

Bai Suye felt very uncomfortable.

No matter how things develop in the future, she will always be a disaster in his Ye Xiao world. unless……

She didn't think about it further. After a long time, she took a deep breath, pulled her lips, and patted Ye Xiao's hand, "Stop hugging me. Mr. Fei will see it later and say we are showing off."

Ye Xiao bit her ear and said, "You are my woman, no one can control me no matter how ostentatious I want to be."
