It wasn't until Ye Fei had left for a long while that the middle-aged couple seed to collapse, sitting down on the ground as if exhausted.
They wiped the cold sweat from their brows and exchanged a glance, both seeing the profound shock in each other's eyes.
"Do you think we've ddled too much?" the man asked, his voice sowhat hoarse.
"What kind of power is this?" the woman was still trembling with fear.
"He actually used his internal energy to immobilize us. Such strength must be far greater than that of our Sect Leader. It seems we've always underestimated him, and our faction's intelligence is really not up to par."
The middle-aged man nodded, suddenly smiling.
"Maybe this is a good thing. At least with him around, the four young ladies might have a better life. I believe the Sect Leader won't bla us when he finds out, because this opponent is truly terrifying."
"I actually hope she cos to cause trouble for Ye Fei. Maybe then she'll learn a lesson," the woman sneered.
"And with Xuehan's connection, perhaps the eldest miss won't have to suffer anymore."
The middle-aged man nodded again but remained silent, gazing in the direction Ye Fei had left, a glint of anticipation in his eyes.
Back in the courtyard, Ye Fei smiled at the three young girls and said, "We can get going now."
"Ye Fei, what did Uncle Wang and Aunt Wang want with you?" Gu Xue i asked.
They were all puzzled.
Ye Fei clearly didn't know the middle-aged couple, so why would they have anything to say to him?
"They told that all three of you little ones like and want to choose one of you as my wife," Ye Fei joked with a smile.
"Ugh!"
The three young girls all spat in unison. Their identical pretty faces flushed with red, and their hearts raced.
At thirteen, they were at the age of budding affection.
Having rarely been exposed to the outside world, Ye Fei's sudden appearance in their lives was like a ray of sunshine in the darkness, bringing them hope and warmth. He had been so considerate towards them, and over these few days, their young hearts had unconsciously beco attached to him.
Now that he had exposed their secret feelings, how could they not be embarrassed?
Ye Fei hadn't expected his little joke to cause such a reaction.
From the girls' expressions, he seed to understand sothing and couldn't help but lightly touch his nose.
Did he really have that much charm?
To avoid further embarrassnt for the girls, Ye Fei quickly changed the subject.
"Alright, since we're ready, let's get going. Maybe you'll be able to stand up before evening."
As expected, ntioning their greatest concern shifted their focus, and the three girls eagerly followed Ye Fei to the military hospital.
However, they faced a dilemma when leaving.
The narrow alley was so uneven that Ye Fei's car couldn't drive in and had to be parked outside.
Their wheelchairs couldn't be pushed out either.
The only way out was to carry them.
While lifting a wheelchair with a girl in it was no effort for Ye Fei, doing so in public would attract too much attention.
So, he decided to carry each of them out one by one.
After Ye Fei announced his decision, the girls' faces turned red again, but their beautiful eyes were filled with anticipation.
Without wasting any more ti, Ye Fei picked up the youngest, Gu Xue i, and strode out of the courtyard towards his car.
"Ye Fei," Gu Xue i softly called out while lying in his arms halfway there.
Ye Fei looked down to see her pretty face flushed with an unusual redness, her cartoonishly large eyes glistening with an uncommon tenderness for her age.
Her small, cherry-like lips were slightly parted, as if tempting him to kiss her deeply.
Ye Fei inwardly groaned.
He hadn't expected this little girl to be so enchanting when she was emotional.
The fla that had been ignited by his mother earlier seed to flicker back to life, and even a certain part of him seed to want to rise.
To avoid any embarrassnt, Ye Fei quickened his pace, soon reaching the car. He placed Gu Xue i in the back seat and prepared to go back for the other two.
"Ye Fei!"
Gu Xue i called out again. Seeing him turn back, she asked with a blush, "Do you really an you'll choose one of us?"
Ye Fei felt a headache coming on. He hadn't expected his joke to be taken seriously.
But if he admitted it was a joke now, he might hurt their fragile feelings.
So he smiled and said, "Yeah, so who do you think I should choose, Xiao i?"
Among the three girls, Gu Xue i was the most innocent and gentle.
But precisely because of her innocence, she was bolder than most girls her age on this matter.
After hesitating for a mont, she said, "Of course I hope Ye Fei will choose , but then my sisters will be unhappy. But if you choose my sister, I won't be happy either. How about this—let's all be your wives."
She looked at Ye Fei expectantly.
The innocent remark sparked endless fantasies in Ye Fei's mind.
The thought of three identical, adorable girls lying side by side, sweetly calling his na and waiting for him to choose, was incredibly tantalizing.
The mischievous thoughts caused a certain part of him to stir even more, prompting him to quickly bend down and gently pat Gu Xue i's head with a smile.
"Alright, when you all grow up, you can all be Ye Fei's wives."
"That's great, Ye Fei! So this is like a secret engagent, right?" Gu Xue i said happily.
"I've seen on TV that after a secret engagent, the protagonists always share a kiss. Ye Fei, can you kiss ?"
Ye Fei let out a helpless smile, then lowered his head and gently placed a kiss on the little girl's smooth forehead, chuckling, "Is that okay?"
To his surprise, Gu Xue i suddenly wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her soft, tender lips to his.
Fortunately, the young girl had no idea how to kiss; after their lips t, she simply didn't know what to do next and just held on tightly, maintaining the contact.
Even so, Ye Fei felt sowhat overwheld.
Had it not been for his strong willpower, he might have done sothing he would regret.
Fearing he might make a mistake, Ye Fei quickly pushed Gu Xue i away.
Fortunately, the young girl didn't fully understand the implications of what had just happened. She was already content with that brief kiss and smiled sweetly at him, saying, "Ye Fei, go get my third sister, Siyao, quickly. But I want more in the future, okay?"
Ye Fei's heart stirred again. He quickly nodded and hurried back. He was sowhat astonished to realize that ever since this morning, he seed different from his usual self.
He had beco more susceptible to temptation. He had initially thought it was because of his mother's teasing remark earlier, but now he realized it was clearly not the case.
In the past, he wouldn't have felt much for an innocent girl like Gu Xue i, but today was different.
As for why, even his sharp mind was temporarily at a loss to explain.
