My ex-husband took Bai Yueguang home and begged me on his knees not to get a divorce.

The aunt brought two bowls of glutinous rice balls, which were steaming hot. Ginger and brown sugar were mixed together, and the sweet smell floated in the air.

Mrs. Yu smiled and said: "Drink it while it's hot to get rid of the cold."

Ye Xi and Li Yiwen sat obediently on the sofa, each holding a bowl and eating slowly.

The glutinous rice balls are soft and glutinous, with a slight spicy ginger flavor.

Ye Xi ate half the bowl and sweat broke out on his forehead.

Huang Chenrui secretly looked at Ye Xi and saw her moist red lips, and inexplicably wanted to eat glutinous rice balls.

Yu Qingyue suddenly said: "Ye Xi, do you want to go to Beicheng to work?"

Ye Xi raised his head and didn't understand why Yu Qingyue suddenly asked this.

Yu Qingyue said: "We talked about jewelry in the evening. Shi's Group has a jewelry branch that is recruiting people. If you are interested, I will talk to Mr. Shi."

Yu Qinglin added angrily: "Yali is ranked at the top of the industry. For someone like you who has graduated and has never had a serious job, you can go to that place thanks to the back door."

After more than two years, Ye Xi felt an indescribable pain in her heart when she heard the word Yali.

It used to be her favorite place. At that time, she still wanted to have a good career, but that was just her wishful thinking.

Ye Xi scooped up a glutinous rice ball with a spoon and put it in his mouth. It was really sweet.

The life now is what she wants because she is really happy.

Ye Xi swallowed the food: "I like city B and don't want to go to Beicheng. Besides, I'm very happy with this job introduced by my cousin. I can go to work freely and don't have to clock in."

Yu Qingyue probably knew Ye Xi's choice when he asked. Even if Ye Xi doesn't go out to work, the Yu family will be able to support her. It's just that she hopes Ye Xi can pursue further career pursuits. But everyone has their own goals in life, and she respects Ye Xi's decision.

Huang Chenrui suddenly said: "My grandma is going to celebrate her birthday. Can you help me design jewelry for her?"

Ye Xi said: "Okay, tell me about your grandma's preferences and unforgettable things later."

Yu Qinglin remembered that grandma Huang Chenrui had just celebrated her birthday, didn't she? Why is it another birthday? She suddenly understood something, pointed at Huang Chenrui and said, "Oh, your grandma..."

Huang Chenrui interrupted her and said without blushing or heartbeat: "Yes, my grandma likes emerald green."

Ye Xi didn't think much, nodded and asked: "Grandma must love you very much?"

Huang Chenrui said: "Of course." He wanted to ask Ye Xi to chat privately alone, so that the two of them could be considered a date. "I have to call my grandma to ask about other things, and I will tell you then."

It was time for Mrs. Yu to go to bed, so she didn't stop the young people from chatting here. She asked her aunt to help her upstairs to rest.

When Mrs. Yu entered the elevator, Yu Shaoheng looked at Ye Xi: "Are you frightened by what happened to Ma Anyang today?"

Ye Xi shook his head: "Brother, don't worry, I'm not that fragile."

Yu Shaoheng was very kind to her and had always been a good brother who was responsible and patient.

Yu Shaoheng said: "Just now your eldest sister asked you to live in Beicheng, and my eldest brother agreed."

"Brother, but I don't want to go. I like it here."

"Brother can't let you go. Grandma and the others can't let you go either. But Ma Anyang is a bastard. He can do anything. If you are alone and caught by him one day, the consequences will be disastrous."

Ye Xi lowered his head and said nothing, and the glutinous rice balls in his mouth felt bitter.

Huang Chenrui said: "Beicheng is very good, and the Li family is also in Beicheng. If you go out, you can walk sideways in Beicheng, and no one will dare to bully you."

"I don't want to go to Beicheng!" Ye Xi still said the same thing. There was some grievance in her tone.

Yu Qinglin said angrily: "Today, this man named Ma threatened to bankrupt our Yu family if you don't marry him. When the Yu family is really bankrupt, our good life will be gone."

When Li Yiwen saw Ye Xi's eyes were red, he immediately put her in his arms and said in his childish tone: "She won't go. Don't force her."

Ye Xi's heart was sour, and she buried her face in Li Yiwen's chest and said nothing.

Everyone knows that the two brothers and sisters have a good relationship. Li Yiwen is a child with an IQ of only four or five years old. He doesn't understand the power of it, so it is reasonable to side with Ye Xi.

Deng Muchen sighed and said: "Ye Xi has lived here since she was a child and is not close to the Li family. It's understandable that she doesn't like going to Beicheng. Let her live in City B. Yiwen also needs someone to accompany her, so take more with you when you go out in the future. I'm a bodyguard. If anything happens, call me in time."

Yu Qingya was soft-hearted. Seeing Ye Xi being forced to go to Beicheng by everyone, her nose felt sore: "Second sister won't go if she doesn't want to go. Let second sister and fourth brother stay at home. Grandma is also happy that someone will be at home with her every day."

Ye Xitou was still buried in Li Yiwen's arms, and it looked like he was crying.

Yu Shaoheng said: "Then live in city B. Big brother will ask someone to invite a few mercenaries to come back to protect you tomorrow."

Huang Chenrui saw that Ye Xi was very resistant to going to Beicheng. Forcing others to make things difficult would only make Ye Xi hate him, so he stopped talking and just patted his chest and said:

"If Ma Anyang dares to act recklessly, I will beg my grandfather to knock his father down."

Ye Xi said um in a dull voice, and Li Yiwen stroked her back to comfort her. He didn't want his sister to go to some northern city, where he wouldn't be able to see her.

They each returned to their rooms. Ye Xi finished taking a shower and just lay down on the bed when the door rang.

She opened the door and saw Li Yiwen standing outside, with water dripping from his hair. He should have come over after taking a shower.

"Want me to blow dry your hair?"

"I'll come with you. Don't be afraid."

Ye Xi looked at his seriousness in a funny way and let him in. She was about to invite him to sit on the sofa, but saw him sitting on her bed.

Ye Xi asked: "Do you want to sit on the bed and tell me a story?"

He patted the other half of the bed: "I'll hold you to sleep."

Ye Xi was a little distressed and scratched his head: "Brother, our home is very safe. It is monitored 24 hours a day and guarded by bodyguards. I am not afraid of them either. But if you tell me a story, I will fall asleep quickly. "

Li Yiwen frowned: "Won't you let me hold you to sleep?"

Li Yiwen doesn't understand the difference between men and women at all, so his family won't correct him too much no matter what he does.

If she slept in the same bed with Li Yiwen, everyone would just think that Li Yiwen was a child playing bad temper. After all, he only had the IQ of a four or five-year-old.

But Ye Xi knows that they are not biological siblings, so she has to maintain boundaries sometimes.

Ye Xi said patiently: "Because I'm not scared, I don't need you to hold me to sleep. When I feel scared one day, I will take the initiative to find you. Do you understand?"

Li Yiwen frowned and seemed to understand: "Then can't I hold you to sleep?"

"If I get scared in the future, you can hug me to sleep again." Afraid of disappointing him, Ye Xi added, "But you can tell me a story tonight, because I really want to hear your story today."
