Ye Xuan looked at the scene in front of him silently. His sister should not be like this. What kind of experience made Ye Ling 'er like this?
"Ling 'er, who are you arguing with again?" Ye Mu's mother came late, her eyes filled with worry.
"Mom, don't worry about my business." Ye Mu's appearance did not make Ye Ling 'er restrain her rebellious nature. Instead, she kept on pushing and shoving the young man.
"Old thing, you came out just in time. Your daughter owes me a gambling debt. If you don't pay it back today, you can just recognize me as your son-in-law."
The young man laughed evilly. As he kept on pushing and shoving Ye Ling 'er, he even touched some of her sensitive areas. If not for Ye Ling' er's nimble body, she would have been taken advantage of.
How could a young girl be a match for a strong man? Just as the strong man grabbed Ye Ling 'er's hands, a gloomy voice suddenly sounded.
"If you don't want to die, you better let go of her." Ye Xuan came behind the strong man, his eyes cold.
"Hmm? Damn, which bastard dares to meddle in Lao Tzu's business? " The young man's expression froze for a moment before he abruptly turned around to look at Ye Xuan. What entered his eyes was a young man with grey hair and ancient clothes.
"Xuan 'er, come in quickly. Your sister can handle this."
Mother Ye didn't clearly see when Ye Xuan appeared, but in her impression, her son was polite and didn't have the strength to truss a chicken. How could he be a match for this young man in front of her?
As Ye Mu's voice fell, the young man did not feel anything. However, Ye Ling 'er, who was struggling in his hands, froze. Her eyes unconsciously looked at Ye Xuan.
In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years passed.
When the brother and sister's eyes met, Ye Ling 'er was completely stunned, as if she had lost her soul.
"Boy, I'm talking to you. Didn't you hear me?" Being ignored by Ye Xuan, the young man was furious. He let go of Ye Ling 'er and strode towards Ye Xuan.
Unfortunately, before he could get close to Ye Xuan, what happened next shocked Ye Mu's mother.
Kacha!
Ye Xuan's jade-like palm suddenly grabbed the young man's neck and slowly lifted him into the air. His five jade-like fingers tightened around the young man's neck, causing the man's throat to crack.
"Ah … No … No …"
His face swelled red and gradually turned purple. The young man's eyes rolled back as he struggled in the air in a sorry state. He even let out a howl like a pig being slaughtered.
Breathing was difficult, his head was dizzy, and his tongue was unconsciously sticking out of his mouth. It probably wouldn't be long before Ye Xuan choked him to death.
A murderous glint appeared in Ye Xuan's eyes. He exerted force in his palm, as if he was going to kill this person in the next moment.
In the nick of time, Mother Ye's cry of alarm was heard.
"Xuan 'er, let go. He'll die."
As Ye Mu's voice fell, Ye Xuan frowned slightly and released the strong man's palm. He couldn't kill in front of Ye Mu. She couldn't accept it.
However, while the death penalty could be avoided, the punishment could not be forgiven.
Kacha.
Ye Xuan suddenly grabbed the strong man's left palm and exerted a huge force on it. The strong man's palm instantly became soft like a pile of mud, and the man's ear-piercing cry of pain was heard.
"Ah, my hand, my hand …" The young man rolled violently in the snow. The pain in his palm made him sweat all over.
"I will return the money my sister owes you, but you have to remember that if you continue to pester her, it won't be as simple as crippling one of your hands." Ye Xuan calmly spoke, but when the burly man heard it, it caused an extremely cold feeling to rise from the bottom of his heart.
He didn't dare to leave behind any harsh words. The young man struggled to get up and ran away. Clearly, Ye Xuan gave him a great sense of fear.
As the young man left, Mother Ye walked quickly to Ye Ling 'er and said, "Ling' er, your brother didn't die. His illness is cured. Now your brother is back. Hurry up and call him brother."
At this time, Ye Ling 'er was staring at Ye Xuan. Even when Mother Ye spoke, she didn't have the slightest reaction. Ye Xuan silently looked at Ye Ling' er, his heart full of mixed feelings.
"Ha! Brother? "
Ye Ling 'er came back to her senses and sneered. "I, Ye Ling' er, don't have a brother. What kind of brother is he? Is he worthy?"
Ye Ling 'er turned and walked home, not looking at Ye Xuan again. Mother Ye's expression was lonely, as if she had aged a few years at this moment.
Looking at Ye Ling 'er's back, Ye Xuan's mind was like a wave. His thoughts were in a trance at this moment. The memories of the brother and sister kept flashing in his mind.
"Brother, I want to eat rice cake. Can you buy it for me?"
With her hair in a ponytail, pure eyes, and a weak voice, the young Ye Ling 'er kept following behind Ye Xuan. She held her brother's hand tightly and didn't let go.
The scene changed and the thoughts returned. Ye Xuan's eyes were tightly closed. He didn't expect that after he disappeared for four years, the sister who used to rely on him the most would no longer recognize him.
Ye Xuan suddenly opened his eyes. His voice was bitter. "Ling 'er, you really don't recognize me?"
At this time, Ye Ling 'er's footsteps stopped. Her body seemed to be stiff. After a few breaths, she slowly turned to look at Ye Xuan.
"You came back alive. Your illness is cured. But four years ago, when you left without saying goodbye, do you know how we got through these four years?"
Like a flash flood, like a tidal wave, Ye Ling 'er's voice was hoarse as she roared. It was as if she wanted to vent all the resentment she had accumulated over the years.
Clang!
The metal door was violently flung open by Ye Ling 'er. The loud sound of the collision echoed in the night. Ye Xuan slowly clenched his fists. His mind was extremely agitated.
That year, in order to treat his illness, the family sold everything that could be sold. One mother with two children. Ye Xuan didn't need to think to know that in the past four years, the family had encountered great difficulties.
"Xuan 'er, don't mind her. Your sister, she …"
"Mom, you don't need to say anymore. It's all my fault. Don't blame her. Really don't blame her." Ye Xuan said bitterly. He supported Mother Ye as they slowly walked back home. But in his heart, he had already made some decisions.
At home.
Mother Ye was going to cook, but Ye Xuan let her rest in the house. He then went into the kitchen, picked up the apron, and began to make dinner.
The four walls of the house were bare, and the food was bland.
Apart from a pot of white rice, there was no meat at all on the dining table. When Ye Xuan saw the bottom of the rice jar, he already knew how poor the family was.
At the dining table, Mother Ye went to ask Ye Ling 'er to eat, but did not get any response. Clearly, Ye Ling' er did not want to see Ye Xuan. Thus, Mother Ye had no choice but to give up.
"Xuan 'er, have a bite first. I'll make your favorite braised carp tomorrow," Mother Ye said as she picked up the vegetables on the plate and placed them in Ye Xuan's bowl.
Ye Xuan ate the food in his bowl silently. A warmth that he had never experienced in the past four years grew in his heart. He ate very seriously because he was finally reunited with his family.
"Mom, where's Little Brother?"
After putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Ye Xuan finally remembered the matter. Ever since he stepped into the house, Ye Ling 'er had already returned home, but Ye Ping was nowhere to be seen.
Hearing Ye Xuan's question, Mother Ye knew that she couldn't beat around the bush. She forced a smile and said, "Your brother is doing very well now. He was brought back to the Ye Family three years ago."
