You Cannot Afford To Offend My Woman

"Little Tian, you seem to be in good spirits these days. What\'s making you so happy?" Le Jing, curious, asked her son as she noticed a smile on his lips.

Ye Juetian was, of course, reminiscing about his time with Yi Yi, feeling very happy. "Just thinking that my big brother is going to introduce a girl to me makes me happy."

Ye Hua chuckled softly, "You will surely be satisfied."

Afterwards, Ye Hua continued, "I\'ve noticed that there are not enough people serving in the palace lately. Since Little Tian is getting married soon, I\'ve hired some palace maids to take care of trivial matters in the palace."

The three wives were surprised; they hadn\'t heard Ye Hua mention this before. Le Jing expressed her approval, "Indeed, Ye Hua, it\'s good to have more people in the palace. It adds vitality."

"Mother is right. After we finish breakfast, would you like to choose some palace maids for the chambers?" Ye Hua asked with care.

Although Daji was serving by his side, she was just one person. Le Jing preferred those who were pleasing to the eye, not chattering maids.

"That\'s a good idea. I\'ll pick a few later," Le Jing agreed in a gentle tone.

Ye Hua then turned to Ye Juetian, "Little Tian, you can also choose a few."

"Yes, big brother," Ye Juetian replied respectfully.

Qing Ya and the others felt a sense of surprise. Was Ye Hua sending people to monitor Little Tian? After breakfast, Daji whispered a few words to Ye Hua.

"Mother, everyone is here, just outside," Ye Hua said with a light smile.

"Good, let\'s go and have a look."

Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi supported Le Jing as they left the chamber. Outside, a group of women in pink court dresses, delicate and charming, stood with lowered heads, feeling nervous. After all, they were in the presence of the Emperor of the Voidless Empire – the highest authority. Serving him would be a lifelong honour.

However, only one woman in the crowd raised her head, her gaze filled with confusion.

The current expressions of Ye Juetian and Qian Yuqing stiffened as they immediately spotted Yi Yi in the lineup.

Unable to comprehend, Ye Juetian\'s mind buzzed. No wonder Yi Yi mentioned giving him a surprise. But what was this surprise? Instead of being delighted, he found it terrifying. The imperial palace was a dangerous place. Why would Yi Yi be so naive?

Qing Ya and Donghuang Baizhi noticed the change in their expressions, eventually looking towards the most outstanding girl in the lineup. This must be Yi Yi, exceptionally beautiful.

However, this arrangement must have been made by Ye Hua. The question was, what was his intention in doing so?

Yi Yi in the lineup looked at the two Ye brothers strangely. Was she seeing things? Why were there two identical Ye Ye?

However, when Yi Yi saw the Ye Ye in the middle, she felt fearful, while the Ye Ye beside him felt joyful.

Ye Hua indeed arranged this recruitment of palace maids. Yi Yi\'s application could be considered accidental since no one persuaded her. She just heard there was a way to enter the imperial palace and decided to sign up.

Upon receiving the list, Ye Hua was very satisfied. The bait had been taken willingly.

"Little Tian, you\'re getting married soon, so go ahead and make your selection," Ye Hua said casually.

Hearing this, Ye Juetian\'s heart sank. He completely didn\'t understand what his big brother meant.

However, Yi Yi in the lineup felt delighted when she heard this. Was Ye Ye going to choose her as his wife? She was so happy about it and glad she kept it a secret until today.

Qian Yuqing was very worried, but it wasn\'t the right time to say anything.

Le Jing smiled, "Little Tian, you go first."

Ye Juetian was very nervous. He wanted to choose Yi Yi, but looking at her hopeful gaze, he clenched his teeth tightly.

Big brother was definitely testing him! Yi Yi\'s appearance was not a coincidence!

Ye Juetian smiled and said, "Thank you, mother and big brother. Little Tian won\'t be polite then."

Ye Juetian pointed at a few people, but Yi Yi was not among them.

Ye Hua stood without saying anything. Qian Yuqing sighed in relief; Little Tian still showed some rationality.

Yi Yi in the lineup furrowed her brows. Why didn\'t Ye Ye choose her, but instead chose other girls? Didn\'t he see her? No, he definitely saw her. Then why didn\'t he choose her?

"Little Tian, that girl is very beautiful, why didn\'t you choose her?" Le Jing curiously asked.

Ye Juetian said in a low voice, "Mother, beauty doesn\'t mean anything. In the end, it\'s just a bag of skin."

Le Jing chuckled, "I didn\'t expect Little Tian to have such an understanding. Well done, my son."

At this moment, Yi Yi felt lost. What did Ye Ye just say? It hurt so much. Why would Ye Ye say such things?

Le Jing gave some instructions to Yi Yi and then Qing Ya started assigning others.

After selecting the people, Ye Juetian left immediately, seemingly unwilling to stay any longer. However, Yi Yi wanted to talk to Ye Ye, but his coldness hurt her deeply. She didn\'t know what she had done wrong to make Ye Ye ignore her.

Ye Hua observed this and then left as well.

Back in his own chamber, Ye Juetian clenched his fists tightly.

Why did this happen? Was it big brother\'s doing? It must be! It definitely was!

Ye Juetian directly took out a mirror and called Yi Yi.

Feeling the mirror\'s vibration, Yi Yi quickly hid aside.

"Yi Yi."

"Ye Ye, are you upset?"

Looking at Yi Yi\'s aggrieved expression, Ye Juetian felt that he shouldn\'t have done what he did.

"Yi Yi, how did you end up here?"

"A few days ago, I saw the imperial palace recruiting palace maids on the street. I thought you were in the palace, and if I entered, we could see each other every day. So, I came."

"No one forced you?" Ye Juetian asked in confusion, suspecting that it wasn\'t his big brother\'s doing.

Yi Yi shook her head, "No, I came on my own. Yeye, I\'m sorry... I didn\'t listen to you again."

Ye Juetian rubbed his forehead, unsure of what to do.

Yi Yi lowered her head slightly, feeling wronged, and asked, "Ye Ye, why didn\'t you choose me just now?"

"Yi Yi, you have to listen carefully to what I\'m about to tell you, okay!" Ye Juetian no longer concealed the truth. If he didn\'t tell Yi Yi now, it could lead to misunderstandings later.

"Okay, I\'m listening carefully."

"Yi Yi, my big brother and my mother, both disapprove of us being together," Ye Juetian said solemnly.

Yi Yi immediately asked, "Ah, did I do something wrong? I can fix it. Although I\'m a bit silly, give me some time, and I can definitely improve."

The more Yi Yi spoke, the more uncomfortable Ye Juetian felt. It wasn\'t about fixing or changing – it was because you are an ordinary girl.
