Chapter 1223: Chapter 1223: You Are Just Ye Qilan’s Stand-In (5)

Liu Qingyin, upon hearing Fu Yan’s words, sarcastically remarked, “Fu Yan, stop pretending. The moment you see Ding Ye, you act like a mouse seeing a cat. Don’t tell me you think of Ding Ye as my brother-in-law?”

Fu Yan was even more cowardly than her and Qiao Qiao at the sight of Ding Ye.

Fu Yan felt his dignity was being attacked by Liu Qingyin’s rebuke.

But Liu Qingyin’s words did strike a chord in his heart. The only person he ever truly respected in his life was Ye Qilan. He considered Ye Qilan as a brother and friend, following his orders without question.

Ding Ye’s face greatly resembles Ye Qilan’s. Every time he saw Ding Ye, he felt as if Ye Qilan was speaking to him, making him automatically feel inferior.

Especially since Ding Ye also had a particularly dominant and sharp aura, he could never bring himself to look directly into Ding Ye’s eyes.

“You and Qiao Qiao are just the same, turning into cowards the moment you see Ding Ye,” Fu Yan retorted.

“We are women, and you are a man; how can you even compare yourself with us frail women?!” Liu Qingyin stepped forward to help Qiao Qiao wash the dishes.

Once again, Fu Yan found himself speechless and incapable; he wanted to establish a macho image in front of Liu Qingyin, but it seems there was no stage for him to shine.

Soon, the three of them came out of the kitchen.

Liu Qingyin and Qiao Qiao tacitly hovered around Su Hongxing, not giving Ding Ye and Su Hongxing any private space.

This time, Ding Ye made no particular response and left the living room with a toddler in one arm and leading Little Pudding by the other hand, heading for a walk towards the Apricot Forest.

Dressed in a white homewear, with a tall figure, even carrying two toddlers didn’t detract from his distinguished noble aura.

Su Hongxing, transfixed by Ding Ye’s retreating figure, thought that in terms of sheer beauty, this man was uniquely blessed. No wonder so many women were crazy about him.

Even Qiao Qiao and Liu Qingyin were daydreaming while watching Ding Ye’s figure, it’s undeniable, this man had a genuinely impressive aura. Coupled with that face that drove women wild, it’s no wonder Su Hongxing fell for him so quickly.

Fu Yan, seeing the three women’s infatuated expressions, coughed loudly, bringing their souls back to reality.

“Merely watching his back is enough to bewitch, this man is trouble,” Liu Qingyin couldn’t help but exclaim.

Fu Yan coldly looked at Liu Qingyin, “Is Ding Ye really that great?”

Such naive women. Still immature, easily seduced by a man’s beauty.

Liu Qingyin was about to agree, but then she remembered her intention was to belittle Ding Ye and suddenly changed her tone: “I still think, the most handsome man in the world is my brother-in-law! Ding Ye is just a fake, how can he compare to my brother-in-law? Sister, don’t you think?”

“You go on talking, I’m going out for a walk to digest my food,” Su Hongxing said, eager to go see the two children and her man.

Her anxious demeanor only added to the others’ frustrations.

Fu Yan gave Liu Qingyin a meaningful look, and understanding his hint, she quickly blocked Su Hongxing’s path: “Sister, I wanted to ask you about some beauty tips.”

“I’m not good at that; I rarely use makeup.” Su Hongxing was forcibly pulled back to sit on the sofa by Liu Qingyin.

Then Qiao Qiao also joined in, claiming to want advice on cooking.

Su Hongxing was initially oblivious, only thinking about going to see Ding Ye and the children. Eventually, she realized that these two women were deliberately holding her back.

Knowing that they were doing it for her own good, she didn’t expose them, choosing instead to spend the time chatting and watching TV with them.
