Yan Lie said angrily: "No need, we don't have so much etiquette here, besides, you came to ask for something." ”

"Something?" Ye Yaqi frowned, "I'm not a beggar. ”

Yan Lie laughed and said, "This is Shenglan's rule, you have to follow the customs." ”

The tense atmosphere disappeared in the fierce laughter, and Ye Yaqi's mood also relaxed, and the two went to St. Petersburg non-stop.

The layout of the Yan family's castles is about the same, except that there are no large plum forests here, and Shenglan in late autumn has long been covered with ice and snow, and the castle composed of white and gray looks lifeless.

Ye Yaqi looked around, and her heart swelled with inexplicable loss.

When she was a child, her favorite fairy tale was "Beauty and the Beast", and many people were afraid of the beast, but she felt that he was very pitiful.

Who can stand a lonely person living in a huge castle and enjoying all the loneliness and loneliness.

And when he first met Yan Lie, Ye Yaqi felt that he was very much like that beast, and his coldness and reticency were just his disguises.

She thought she could bring him warmth and laughter, but in the end she thought highly of herself.

Instead of going into his world, she put herself in it.

She didn't want to dwell on the past anymore, and everything between them ended long before she was lying under his wheels.

Stepping into the castle, she immediately felt the warmth she had never felt before, not as cold as it looked, but the interior of the castle was especially warm under the burning of the huge fireplace.

The maid took off the thick fur coat for Yan Lie and Ye Yaqi, and under the guidance of Yan Lie, she came to the nearest position to the fireplace and sat down, because of the warmth, her mood was much lighter, and she looked around curiously.

The living room is ridiculously large, with colorful murals on the high roof, the blue sky in the paintings is as if it were real, and the cherubs surrounding the Virgin Mary are particularly cute.

A wall in the distance is full of photo frames, large and small, and the top side by side is an oil portrait of the old man, from their very similar facial features to Yan Lie, Ye Yaqi can judge that they are Yan Lie's grandfather and his grandfather's elders.

The small photo frames below are photos of Yan Lie from childhood to adulthood, as if he has been owed money since he was a child, and his face is tense in any photo, and his lips are pursed into a line, which is not cute at all!

At this moment, she suddenly heard footsteps in the distance, and followed the voice, only to see a noble lady in a long tunic dress, her skin was white and tight, her eyes were large and round, and her deep double eyelids made her look like a Barbie doll.

I haven't heard that Yan Lie has sisters, so Ye Yaqi can judge that she is Yan Lie's mother.

However, she is also too rebellious, standing with a gloomy Yanlie, just like his sister!

"You're Kiki?" With a smile on the corner of her mouth, Paris stretched out her hand to Ye Yaqi, "I'm glad to be there!" ”

Ye Yaqi hurriedly stood up, not reaching out, nor putting it down.

This is not at all what she imagined!

Thinking that Yan Lie was a big ice cube, his parents should also be cold, but as everyone knows, his mother actually ......

If you shake her hand directly, she will be so rude!

Ye Yaqi's thinking is still limited to Chuanlanguo's 'respect for the old and love for the young'.

Just as Ye Yaqi was planning, he suddenly heard Yan Lie and said, "Hold it." ”

Ye Yaqi smiled dryly, and out of respect, she reached out and held Paris's hand tightly.

"Xiao Lie, Kiki is really a sensible and good girl!" Paris suddenly withdrew her hand and looked at Yan Lie with a smile.

Ye Yaqi couldn't help but complain, where did she think she was sensible!

But on the surface, he can only laugh.

Yan Lie exhaled lightly, and then introduced to Ye Yaqi: "Kiki, this is my mother Paris, and her mind is not mature enough. ”

He said it in extreme vehement.

Ye Yaqi immediately understood, could it be that his mother had a mental problem?!

But just after Ye Yaqi came to this conclusion, Yan Lie was slapped on the back by Paris, and her face was still Ying. was full of smiles, but there was indeed a sense of revenge in his tone: "Xiao Lie, you introduced me to my future daughter-in-law like this, do you want me to tell her about your childhood!" ”

I don't know if she slapped too hard, or what, Yan Lie coughed violently, as soon as he heard him cough, Ye Yaqi's heart rose to her throat, and she hurriedly stepped forward to help him calm down, and told the maid to pour a cup of hot water.

And Ye Yaqi only cared about taking care of Yan Lie, but missed a trace of cunning flashing in Paris's eyes.

But in the blink of an eye, Paris covered her mouth and exclaimed, "My dear son, what's wrong with you! ”

Although she didn't mean it, Ye Yaqi still couldn't help complaining: "Auntie, you are too ruthless, Yan Lie's body is in trouble, how can you resist being slapped like this!" ”

But Paris disagreed: "My son's body is as strong as a cow, how can there be a problem, unless he doesn't care about it." As she spoke, she glanced at Yan Lie and said with bad intentions, "I heard that he jumped into the icy sea water for a woman before, is this rumor true?" ”

Hearing this, Ye Yaqi's face burned and she buried her head in shame.

Was his mother trying to teach her a lesson?

"I'm sorry, aunt." Ye Yaqi blurted out.

"Kiki, why are you saying you're sorry? I heard that woman is a bad woman, it shouldn't be you, right? Paris pretended to be stupid.

"Yes—"

"That's enough." Ye Yaqi spit out a single note before she was interrupted by Yan Lie's cold voice.

Ye Yaqi hurriedly looked at Yan Lie and found that his face was terrifyingly dark.

But he looked away, looked at Paris and said, "Mom, don't scare her, she's a pregnant woman now." ”

He paused word by word, emphasizing coldly and stiffly.

But Paris didn't eat him, but pouted, and said, "Can't mother talk about her daughter-in-law?" ”

Worried that the hot stinky temper would hurt Paris, Ye Yaqi hurriedly interjected: "Yes, you can, but Auntie, you heard it wrong, I didn't mean to cause him to jump into the icy water." ”

"Who told you to speak?" Paris rebuked suddenly.

Before her words fell, Yan Lie came to Ye Yaqi as quickly as he could not cover his ears, took her hand and walked out.

Ye Yaqi looked at Yan Lie, and then anxiously looked behind her, wanting to explain something, but heard Paris say loudly: "You go!" If you're gone, you'll never come back! ”

She looks angry, like a cute child.

The personalities of the two mothers and sons are really reversed!

Ye Yaqi grabbed Yan Lie violently and said, "Aunt also cares about you, you can't just leave." ”

"If I don't leave, she'll keep messing around." Yan Lie said indifferently.

And at this moment, Ye Yaqi heard Paris whimpering, and in a hurry, she shook off Yan Lie's hand and said angrily: "Didn't you say that you wanted me to come here to ask for something, just leave, won't my things be gone." ”

Ye Yaqi could only lament in her heart, although their personalities are completely different, they are all the same strange and difficult to serve!

To treat such a person, she can only use extraordinary means.

Sure enough, Yan Lie stopped, lingered for a moment, and then walked back to Paris.

But he didn't have a good face for her, but stretched out his hand to her and said coldly, "Give me the ring." ”

"Don't give it!" Paris clasped her hands and played a childish temper.

Yan Lie bowed his head slightly, falling into silence.

And his silence was like a powerful threat, making Paris relieved: "I don't even know what kind of person she is, how can I easily give her the family heirloom ring!" ”

"You can choose to trust my vision." It's still cool.

But in the next second, there was a burst of warm applause from a corner of the room, accompanied by a man's deep laughter: "Well said." ”

Ye Yaqi followed the prestige, only to see a middle-aged man who looked the same as Yan Lie slowly walking towards them.

This should be his father.

His body is a little fat, and he has a beard under his nose, like a middle-aged version of Yan Lie.

In comparison, he is much more normal than Paris.

He patted Yan Li's shoulder, and his voice was magnetic: "Welcome back, my son." ”

"Daddy." Yan Lie bowed slightly, it was this small action, but it fully reflected his reverence for his father.

"Paris, that's what I said to my mother when I was going to marry you before." Yan Han put one hand on Paris's shoulder, and did not hide the doting in his eyes.

But Paris was different from his focus, her beautiful face was anxious, and then she pulled his sleeve and said urgently: "You mean, Mom, she didn't like me before?" ”

"Paris ......" Yan Han looked helpless.

Paris didn't give him a chance to explain, and hurriedly said, "You must be lying to me, my mother never showed that she didn't like me." ”

Yan Han and Yan Lie looked at each other, and could only laugh helplessly.

And Paris's crusade against Ye Yaqi also ended at this moment, she hurriedly returned to the room, saying that she would leave tomorrow to go to the farm in the east to ask Yanlie's grandmother for clarification.

Yan Han hurriedly said goodbye to Ye Yaqi and chased after him.

From afar, Ye Yaqi could hear his soft words coaxing Paris.

It's not enviable.

Coldly, Yan Lie said: "They weren't so good before. ”

Ye Yaqi looked back at him and spurned: "You are jealous, that's why you slander them." ”

Yan Lie hooked his lips and said, "Believe it or not, it may be because of the so-called curse, but I don't believe it. ”

After that, he turned to leave, and his slender figure was stretched out to be long, lonely, which made people feel pity.

After being stunned for a long time, Ye Yaqi caught up and asked curiously, "What curse?" Why do you have to say it if you don't believe it? ”

"Actually, I don't want to come back and get that ridiculous ring." Yan Lie said, "But my mother insisted. ”

"Does that ring have any magical powers?" Ye Yaqi felt that she must have been poisoned by "Beauty and the Beast", and asked such an outrageous question.

Yan Lie stood still and smiled evilly at her: "There is magic that keeps people together forever. ”
