Chapter 124 You're in Charge! (1/2)
Reading Settings
Yan Yu's gaze seemed to traverse a barren wasteland, skipping over the boisterous Yu Hao and fixing fixedly on Yu Siyuan behind him.
There was no emotion in his eyes.
It's the look you give to an inanimate object.
The surrounding air seemed to have been sucked out, and even the falling snowflakes were suspended in mid-air.
Yu Siyuan felt a sudden chill run down to his feet.
He felt as if he were being stared at by a giant python, unable to move from head to toe. The gaze pierced through his cotton clothes and went into his bones, making him tremble like a leaf in the autumn wind.
His throat was so dry it felt like it was on fire. He instinctively shrank back, grabbing Yu Hao's arm tightly, wishing he could hide behind his cousin.
Yan Yu's face darkened completely.
He always knew Yu Hao was unreliable, but he never expected him to be this stupid.
The air pressure around him suddenly dropped, and the chill was even more biting than the wind and snow outside the courtyard.
The four people squatting at the door all shivered.
Yan Yu didn't bother to look again, took out his key, and with a click, opened the courtyard gate.
He pushed open the door, but did not go in immediately.
His tall figure shifted to the side, like an impenetrable wall, completely protecting Ruan Tang behind him and blocking all the wind, snow, and malicious gazes.
"Come in first, and warm up."
He spoke softly, his voice filled with a tenderness reserved only for her, a tenderness that could melt ice and snow.
Ruan Tang obediently went into the house first.
Yan Yu then turned around, nodded with his chin toward the courtyard, signaling the rest of the people to follow.
His powerful mental energy silently enveloped the entire courtyard. When Yu Hao and the others walked in, they found the courtyard to be unusually clean, but they did not notice anything unusual at all.
As soon as they entered the main room, a warm breeze carrying the aroma of mutton soup wafted over them, instantly dispelling the chill they felt.
Ruan Tang had already poured a steaming cup of ginger tea for each of the four of them.
She shoved one of the cups into Yan Yu's hand, who was the last to come in, and muttered softly, "Yours, no sugar."
Yan Yu took the cup, and from the warm surface, he gently grasped her slightly cool hand with his large hand, subtly transferring a warm current to it.
A slight frost appeared on his face, and he gave a soft "hmm".
Yan Yu hasn't said a word since he entered the room.
Yu Hao wanted to speak several times, but when he saw his brother's face, which could freeze a person to death, he swallowed his words back.
His heart was pounding, but he had to admit that the house was really warm, and his sister-in-law was beautiful and kind-hearted, and the ginger tea she gave him was delicious.
Holding the bowl, taking advantage of Yan Yu not looking at him, his eyes began to wander and stealthily glance at Ruan Tang.
Wow, my sister-in-law is so beautiful!
Her skin was as white as fresh snow, and her eyes were big and bright. Wrapped in a thick cotton-padded coat, she looked like a small and soft little ball.
Just looking at it...
Yu Hao quickly dismissed the dangerous thought.
This is his brother's woman! No matter how bold he is, he wouldn't dare to have any improper thoughts.
He just looked at it, purely for appreciation!
He thought he was watching discreetly, but little did he know that Ruan Tang was resting her chin on her hand, watching his performance with great interest.
Why is this young man so simple-minded?
His eyes darted around like a thief, as if afraid others wouldn't know he was spying.
Compared to the shrewdness hidden beneath Zhao Weiguo's honest face, Yu Hao exuded a clear-eyed stupidity from the inside out.
The Crouching Dragon and the Young Phoenix, now we have them all together.
Just as Yu Hao glanced at Ruan Tang for the second time, everything suddenly went black.
A wall of people blocked his view without warning.
He looked up and bumped into his brother's enlarged version of his icy face.
"..." Yu Hao was so frightened he almost dropped the bowl.
