Adopting A Stray Cat Chapter 1054: Trust Me

Chapter 1054: Chapter 1054: Trust

Ye You looked at Qin Sisi sowhat curiously, did not speak, and turned to the guest with a gentle tone, greeting, "Aunt i, why have you co?"

The middle-aged woman called "Aunt i" glanced at Qin Sisi with a half-smile, walked over to Ye You and said, "Aunt i missed you, is that not allowed?"

Ye You smiled calmly and replied, "Thank you, Aunt i."

Aunt i looked at him kindly, brushed off so dust on his clothes, then her expression turned serious as she said, "It’s a crucial ti now. You should focus your thoughts on practicing magic and the upcoming assembly. Don’t always run outside to play."

After advising Ye You, she turned to Qin Sisi and said, "Ms. Qin, you should encourage His Highness more and focus on serious matters."

Qin Sisi looked sowhat embarrassed. Ye You quickly said, "Aunt i, I practiced alchemy all day and got a bit tired, so I asked Sisi to accompany

for a walk. I have never forgotten my responsibilities, rest assured!"

Aunt i then nodded satisfactorily, encouraged Ye You a few words, and continued to Qin Sisi, "Ms. Qin, I have so ticulous tasks at hand. Could you co over tonight and help ?"

Qin Sisi showed a troubled expression; she practiced magic skills during the day and forging at night. Her schedule was packed. The so-called ticulous tasks Aunt i ntioned were nothing more than washing, folding, and sorting clothes, which she had already helped with once before.

Qin Sisi was unsure how to reply, but Ye You had already spoken, "Aunt i, Sisi has to practice forging tonight and really doesn’t have ti. Perhaps you could find soone from the Panhu family to help you!"

Aunt i’s expression paused, seemingly a bit unhappy, but soon she smiled again: "Since that’s the case, I won’t disturb you two any longer."

After speaking, she turned and passed Qin Sisi and Ye You, walked to the cave’s exit, released her magic power to form a pair of wings, and flew away from there.

After Aunt i had left, Ye You looked at Qin Sisi and whispered while holding her hand, "Aunt i watched

grow up, she cares a lot about . Her words are always straightforward and are never ant to harm."

Qin Sisi remained silent; she was very perceptive of whether Aunt i liked her or not, and she clearly understood. However, since Aunt i was seen as a family mber by Ye You, she didn’t know how to express her feelings, and perhaps Ye You wouldn’t believe her even if she spoke.

At this mont, soone brought them dinner, and the matter about Aunt i was temporarily put aside.

After dinner, Ye You practiced alchemy, and Qin Sisi practiced forging. Both were busy with their tasks in the sa cave, occasionally looking up at each other. It wasn’t too intimate, but their hearts were always together.

Late at night, in a small cave, a clear spring flowed. Qin Sisi washed up there, and when she ca out, Ye You was waiting outside the cave. Seeing her approach, he smiled and fondly touched her hair.

Qin Sisi, however, appeared less enthusiastic, dodged Ye You’s hand, and walked directly into the cave used as their bedroom with a downcast expression.

Ye You paused in his actions, retracted his smile, and followed her inside.

"What’s wrong?" Ye You sat down by the bed, holding Qin Sisi’s hand and asked softly.

Qin Sisi looked up at him, hesitating to speak.

Ye You sighed, "Sisi, don’t be like this, I’ll be very worried."

Qin Sisi hesitated for a mont, then finally gathered her courage and said, "Xiao Hei, have you ever thought about it? Are people who are nice to you, definitely nice to ?"

Ye You’s gaze darkened: "Who are you referring to?"

Qin Sisi fell silent for a long ti, only uttering three words, "Don’t want to talk." Then she directly laid down to sleep, turning her back on Ye You.

Ye You watched her figure for a while, then got up to wash up outside, and when he returned to the bedroom, Qin Sisi was still in the sa position, motionless, as if she was asleep.

However, Ye You knew she wasn’t asleep. He gently lay down beside her, wrapping his arms around her from behind, whispering, "Tonight, let

hold you, okay?"

Qin Sisi still did not move, nor did she speak.

Ye You then held her even tighter, whispering into her ear, "Sisi, you must trust , you really must."

Three days swiftly passed, and September 15 had arrived. The Panhu family had already prepared to welco the group leaders, and the i Lan family from the southern side of Biyuan Forest also sent people to help.

This indicated that at least the Panhu family and the i Lan family among The Eight Great Families were definitely standing with Ye You.

After receiving Ye You’s declaration of war against Tian Xiaozi and their invitations, the clan leaders all went through internal struggles and agony.

Theoretically speaking, Ye You is, of course, the legitimate heir of the Jiuxi Royal Family, and they really should support him.

But Ye You was ultimately too young, even though he had lifted the curse and ascended to beco a Magic God, there’s a saying about being old and cunning. How could a young man in his twenties compete against Tian Xiaozi, who was cruel and full of tricky sches?

If Ye You failed, his followers would be in trouble.

But if they decided not to attend the assembly, it would clearly tell Ye You: I do not support you. This would imdiately make them a thorn in his side, to be quickly removed.

Every man for himself, and the devil takes the hindmost; interests are always paramount. They neither wanted to offend Tian Xiaozi nor Ye You, nor did they want the war to impact their family’s interests.

Several clan leaders thought long and hard, weighing up for a long ti. Most chose to attend the eting, deciding to first gauge Ye You’s strength and listen to his plans before making further decisions.

To show their enthusiasm, every guest brought extravagant gifts for Ye You, and knowing it was sowhat inappropriate to directly inquire about specifics from Ye You, which may also not yield the truth, they brought their own children instead.

Of course, those who brought their daughters might have other intentions.

The guests were all led to the parlor, where Ye You greeted them.

Representing the Qing Ming Family, Clan Leader Ge Lun brought his daughter Ya Ling to attend the eting. Ya Ling, clad in white, seed ethereal. When she saw Ye You, her face blood like spring and her bright eyes shone affectionately, her voice gentle and pleasing as that of a valley oriole.

Ye You glanced at her, rely nodding politely.

Representing the Jin Gang family, Clan Leader Shuo Yi brought his son Lie Feng. Lie Feng and Ye You were classmates back in the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle. The old classmates greeted each other with a fist bump, as if they could soon face difficulties and dangers together again.

Representing the Muyin family, Clan Leader Cang Zuo brought his second daughter Jing Jing and third daughter Xiao ng. The eldest daughter, already married, was not suitable for attending such gatherings.

Cang Zuo wore a broad green robe, with both young daughters, one in a light green dress and the other in a lively blue dress, moving gracefully, one still and the other lively, themselves forming a beautiful scene.
