Chapter 17 17.
"Master, let me help you."

After Ning Mu got off the horse, he stretched out his hands to support Liu Qingmei.

Liu Qingmei originally wanted to turn over and jump off the horse. With her strength, she didn't need anyone's support.

I wanted to refuse.

But noticing Ning Mu's expectant look, she hesitated for a moment, then placed her slender hands on his hand and then jumped down.

As she sank, most of her body was almost pressed into Ning Mu's arms.

She could even feel Ning Mu's strong masculine scent and the passion gushing from his nose hitting her delicate face.

It's like the refreshing, intoxicating breeze in spring.

"Come into town!"

After stepping on the ground, Liu Qingmei's ears felt hot and she quickly let go of Ning Mu. Her eyes drifted away and she whispered something.

And at the same time.

At the city gate.

Ye Yutan, the second manager of Yuhong Company, and managers Li Mingquan, Li Mingyang and others, led a group of servants from the company and maids from the Ye family's mansion in Yonghang City, and were eagerly waiting.

Ye Yutan is a direct descendant of the Ye family and Ye Bufan’s cousin.

His father Ye Bupo and Ye Bufan are cousins.

Because he was still young and had average talent in martial arts, he was arranged to train in the Ye family's business when he was only eighteen.

Liu Qingmei came in person this time, and Ye Yutan, as his cousin, was very excited.

It has been more than half a year since he left the Ye family.

In the past six months, in addition to learning business skills from Mr. Ye, he also often went on business trips, traveling all over the country. He has been to several major cities nearby, but he has never returned home.

So when he learned that his young aunt Liu Qingmei was coming, he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.

He burned incense and took a bath early in the morning, then brought his men to wait at the city gate.

The reason why he takes it so seriously is because there is a little secret hidden deep in his heart, unknown to others and difficult to tell.

Ever since he understood the relationship between men and women, he accidentally got into trouble and was chased around the yard and beaten by his father. It was his young aunt who came to talk to his father about something and protected him tightly, saving him from being beaten with a bamboo stick. This beautiful encounter made his young aunt's graceful figure appear in his mind and could not be erased.

When he wakes up in the middle of the night, it often lingers in his mind, making him feel uneasy but still worried...

He couldn't tell anyone about this forbidden crush.

It can only be buried deep in my heart.

When he missed his aunt so much, he often lost his appetite. Only when he saw his aunt could he face life with full energy.

Fortunately, he has been busy with the business in the past six months. The head manager, Mr. Ye, is old, and the family intends to train him to be the new successor of the business and take charge of the Ye family's business.

This kind of busyness actually made him feel less homesick.

But when I was able to see my beloved aunt again, my longing for her suddenly surged like a tide.

only……

When he saw his young aunt riding a horse in a heroic manner, approaching from afar, the joy on his face gradually froze.

As he got closer, he noticed that behind his young aunt there was a handsome man of about his age.

The key point is that these two people were riding on the same horse!
To die!

Even my second uncle Ye Bufan, the owner of the villa, has never ridden on the same horse with my young aunt!
Besides, my second uncle is my young aunt’s husband!

Who is this man?
Just as Ye Yutan frowned, feeling doubtful and resentful.

Then, an unbelievable scene happened which made him dumbfounded...

The heroic and powerful young aunt was like a delicate girl. The man held her slender hands and jumped off the horse, half hugged and half embraced her. Her behavior was intimate, and her expression revealed an intriguing charm.

The two even stuck close to each other.

Although she loosened up at the first touch, that warm, soft and fragrant body actually fell into the arms of the strange boy!
This……

Ye Yutan could no longer suppress his inner anger. He clenched his fists, frowned, and his face gradually turned pale.

"Huh? Who is that man?"

"Madam, in the message you sent, there was no word about it and you mentioned someone else?"

"Master, do you know who the handsome man next to the Madam is?" "..."

Ye Yutan even wanted to kill someone.

Just at this moment, the two brothers Li Mingyang and Li Mingquan, who were the managers of the shop, were still asking in unison, without noticing that the second shopkeeper had a bad look on his face.

"I don't know either. You'll know when my aunt comes over and asks." Ye Yutan suppressed his inner anger and spoke to the Li brothers in a stiff tone.

Only then did the Li brothers realize that there was something wrong with their master's tone.

The two looked at each other, shrugged, looked puzzled, and remained silent.

Not long after.

Liu Qingmei took Ning Mu and passed the inspection of the soldiers at the city gate and came in front of Ye Yutan.

Ye Yutan has adjusted his condition.

Despite the anger, this feeling is extremely taboo and cannot be known to outsiders.

Even Liu Qingmei couldn't be allowed to know.

Otherwise, with my aunt Liu Qingmei's strong character and steadfastness, I'm afraid I'll never see her again in this life!

"Welcome, young aunt!"

"Welcome, Madam!"

"..."

Ye Yutan, the Li brothers, and a group of servants and maids all greeted them.

"Well, no need to be polite."

Liu Qingmei had already calmed down. She no longer had the hesitation and panic she had when she was alone with Ning Mu. She was once again filled with the dignity of the eldest lady of Cangjian Villa.

With a slight wave of her sleeves, Liu Qingmei turned her gaze to her cousin Ye Yutan.

The Ye family is quite prosperous in this generation.

Apart from her husband's lineage, which had only one daughter, there were many nephews and nieces in other branches.

And Ye Yutan, although her cultivation talent was mediocre, was well-behaved and sensible, had good character, and never fought or competed with others. Among all the nephews and nieces of the Ye family, she was the one that made her most satisfied.

"Yutan, how have you been training for the past six months? You've become darker and thinner, but you've also become more energetic, less childish, and more stable. You should pay attention to your health and get more rest."

Liu Qingmei smiled slightly, reached out and patted Ye Yutan's shoulder with concern.

"Thank you for your concern, auntie. Everything is fine for me." Ye Yutan was immediately delighted and felt indescribably grateful.

Feeling the warmth left by his young aunt's delicate and soft body still on his shoulders, he was so excited!

In fact, he has already made a secret decision.

From then on, the dress was no longer washed but put away. When she woke up in the middle of the night, she could see the dress and think of the person, thus relieving her inner depression and longing.

Then, he looked at Liu Qingmei with admiration and said earnestly, "Aunt, you have been exhausted from the long journey. I have asked someone to prepare hot soup and delicious food for you at the residence. After you are tired and full, I will take you to the business. Is this arrangement okay with you, Aunt?"

Liu Qingmei raised her eyebrows slightly, glanced at the two managers, then looked at Ning Mu, and then said to Ye Yutan, "No need to go to the residence. There are many things to do and we don't plan to stay too long. Find a quiet inn and book one for Xiaomu and me."

Hearing Liu Qingmei's words, Ye Yutan's eyes suddenly looked a little lonely.

He also hoped that his young aunt could stay longer so that he could see her beautiful face more often.

But since his young aunt had given the order, how could he disobey?

He immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll ask someone to arrange it right away."

After saying that, he looked at Ning Mu, pretending to be harmless, and asked curiously: "Aunt, I wonder who this gentleman is..."

But Ning Mu still noticed the hostility in his eyes.

"This is my direct disciple, Ning Mu. He is a few months older than you. You should call him brother."

"Xiao Mu, he is the second young master of the Ye family, Ye Yutan."

Liu Qingmei introduced them to each of them.

She already knew Ning Mu's birth date and horoscope. After all, they were his destined partner and also his direct disciple, so it was natural for her to have a thorough understanding of these basic information.
