The man sneered coldly: “Whatever.” Full of sarcasm.

With those words, he left without turning back.

Yi Peilan saw him really leaving, stomped her foot angrily, and started chasing after him.

“Hey, what’s your name? Why have I never seen you before?”

The man took a long stride and left Yi Peilan behind, clearly not interested in engaging with her.

Unwilling to give up, Yi Peilan chased him: “What kind of attitude is that? I’m talking to you!”

He had encountered many spoiled young ladies like her before; he merely smiled faintly and was too lazy to respond.

Seeing that he didn’t take her seriously at all and couldn’t even bother to speak to her, Yi Peilan was furious and unwilling, taking a deep breath, she told herself, ‘It’s okay, it’s okay. I’m not CNY, not everyone has to like me. With a stubborn stone like this, I need patience.’

After a few steps, the man suddenly stopped, shook his head, and raised his hand to gently rub the space between his brows.

A blush crept onto his cheeks, and his gaze was slightly unfocused.

Yi Peilan smirked triumphantly, ‘Serves you right.’

“Hey, what’s wrong with you.” Yi Peilan walked up to him.

The man suddenly lunged forward, just in time to fall onto Yi Peilan.

Yi Peilan was so shocked by the unexpected turn of events that she didn’t know where to place her hands and feet; the man’s warm body was pressed tightly against hers, his chin resting on her shoulder, his breathing teasing her ear, like her racing heartbeat.

Beating so fast it almost jumped out of her throat.

After a while, Yi Peilan finally found her voice: “Hey… What’s wrong with you?”

The man remained silent.

She smelled the increasingly intense scent of alcohol on him, her heartbeat growing more intense.

“Did… did you get drunk? Ji Yunmiao, I’m asking you!”

The man’s tall body was slumped against her, and Yi Peilan couldn’t push him off; she got no response for quite a while.

“You were so cocky just now, look at you now, you’re in my hands,” Yi Peilan grinned triumphantly, using all her strength to move him to a big stone and let him sit against it.

His head drooped, his expression dazed and lost, unlike his usual calm demeanor; when drunk, he exuded a more languid charm like vibrant peaches and plums.

Yi Peilan leaned closer, carefully examining his face; his exquisite features seemed meticulously carved by the hands of nature, his brows, eyes, lips, and nose so vivid, especially those sexy yet aloof lips, making one want to…

Yi Peilan swallowed, inexplicably leaning closer…

Just as she was about to kiss him, her arm was suddenly grabbed by him; Yi Peilan was so frightened that she screamed, instinctively closing her eyes.

The breeze rustled through the treetops, bringing a whispering noise.

Yi Peilan cautiously opened her eyes, finding that he still held her arm, completely drunk.

Unable to help but let out a hum, she shook off his hand, arrogantly laughing, “So you were bluffing me. Luckily, you didn’t find out, or you would’ve ridiculed me.”

Glancing around, Yi Peilan coughed, “With such beauty before me, I can only commit a crime…”

Just as she was quietly moving closer, hurried footsteps approached from a distance.

Just when she was about to kiss him, her heart raced wildly like a fawn, and she had no choice but to give up in resignation.

She quickly stood up, adjusted her skirt and hair, and turned around to see Yun Ya’s maid approaching.

Ah Yun saw the young master sitting against a big stone, clearly dead drunk, and hastened her steps toward them, seeing Yi Peilan standing nearby, she was caught off guard: “Miss Yi? What are you doing here?”

Yi Peilan awkwardly smiled: “I… I felt a bit stuffy and came to the garden for a stroll. I didn’t expect to find this person drunk, I was just about to call someone, but you arrived instead.”

Ah Yun walked over, squatted down to wipe Yun Miao’s sweat with a handkerchief, calling, “Young Master?”

Yi Peilan coughed: “He seems seriously drunk, someone should help him back.”

Ah Yun thought for a moment and said: “Could I bother Miss Yi to look after him while I go find help?”

Yi Peilan cheerfully waved: “No problem.”

Once Ah Yun left, Yi Peilan crouched before him, pinching his nose: “Silly man, dare not acknowledge me? You’ll get what’s coming to you.”

No one can resist Yi Peilan, not even men.

But she despises underhanded tactics; she wants to use her charm to conquer this man.

Soon Ah Yun returned with two men, who lifted Yun Miao from either side and left; Ah Yun hurriedly followed, Yi Peilan watched the man’s departing figure, feeling somewhat lost.

She raised her hand to touch her lips and laughed foolishly.

After the banquet ended, Yun Ya took the two children back to the room; the children slept, the nanny took a break, and Yun Ya tiredly drank some water, not resting before checking on Yun Miao.

Yun Miao slept like there was no tomorrow.

Yun Ya sat quietly by the bed, gazing at him with a slightly dazed look.

After leaving the bedroom, Ah Yun recounted the earlier events in detail, and Yun Ya raised an eyebrow: “You said Yi Peilan was by my brother’s side when you arrived?”

“Yes, but the young master was already completely drunk.”

Yun Ya smirked, “What was Miss Yi’s reaction?”

Ah Yun thought for a moment and said: “She seemed normal, but…” Seeing Yun Ya’s sly grin, she laughed: “Miss, don’t worry too much; young master is charming, attracting admiration is common, but I don’t think the young master’s mind is on such things.”

Yun Ya said: “I hope my brother finds a woman he truly likes and lives a happy life, but you’re right, I am overthinking it; he is not Miaomiao anymore, but my brother, he has his own ideas, he should be the master of his own life.”

Yi Peilan is excellent, her looks and background beyond reproach, though her personality is a bit arrogant, she possesses genuine emotion, and when a woman of such character truly loves someone, she will give it her all.

But everything should follow my brother’s wishes.

Yun Ya felt she might have overlooked something, but it wasn’t important anymore.
