My Dragon Baby and Billionaire Husband

Chapter 413: Who Isn’t Everyone’s Great Uncle? 2

Could it be... that what made Si Yuan so delighted and secretly happy was the Crown Prince?

As expected, Ye Shen’s infuriated voice came from inside the house.

"Second Sister! Crown Prince Lisao is definitely doing this to humiliate you because of that trending topic over half a month ago! He wants to force you into a marriage alliance, to disgrace our family and Atlantis. That Crown Prince Lisao has sinister motives; he’s truly wicked!"

Ye Siyuan stubbornly said, "I am willing nevertheless."

"I do not agree!"

Ye Xinguang said, "Marriage is like a woman’s second chance at life! You must choose a man who is kind to you, or else you will suffer for a lifetime! That Crown Prince Lisao is very cold-hearted, not someone you can entrust your life to. Siyuan, be obedient. Mom and Dad will surely pick a good man for you."

"No! I want to marry him! If he weren’t willing to marry me, then fine. But now he has asked Aunt Bai to come over with a marriage proposal. No matter his purpose, as long as he is willing to marry, I dare to wed."

Ye Siyuan was almost frantic with excitement.

She had never imagined that Crown Prince Lisao would ask Aunt Bai to propose marriage at her home, sending her heart soaring from the abyss to dance ecstatically in the heavens!

She had cried heavily last night after leaving the Bai Family.

She thought she would never be able to marry the man she loved in this lifetime, but unexpectedly, the situation had suddenly turned bright. In her wildest dreams, she never thought Crown Prince Lisao would actually want to marry her.

"Mom, he said I am a good girl, with a good personality and temper! Since I’m so good in his eyes, why can’t I capture his imperial heart and make him consider taking me as his wife?"

Ye Siyuan’s heart felt light, and her tone matched.

Her confidence skyrocketed; she felt she was excellent in all respects and clearly deserving of Crown Prince Lisao!

So, was it really that hard to understand why Crown Prince Lisao asked Aunt Bai to propose on his behalf?

Ye Siyuan cupped her face with her hands and blushed. "In any case, I have agreed to this marriage!

"Taking a step back, even if he has ulterior motives, so what? Feelings can be cultivated! As long as he’s willing to open the gates of his heart to me, I have the courage to charge in, conquer his heart, and build a castle where only I am allowed to dwell. You need to have a little faith in your daughter."

Ye Junqing was so angry his face turned ashen. His own daughter, not even married yet, was already siding with an outsider.

That darn Crown Prince Lisao is stealing my precious daughter, Ye Junqing fumed internally. No father could tolerate this.

He stood with his hands behind his back and said in a deep voice, "Your willingness is irrelevant. Your mother and I do not agree on this matter, so let it be. Never mention it again. It has been proven that marriages without parental blessings are unhappy."

"You can’t be so tyrannical! What era is this? I should be the one to decide on my own marriage."

Ye Siyuan argued her case passionately, but unfortunately, she couldn’t persuade anyone.

Gritting her teeth, Ye Siyuan decided to go for broke. "I am already Crown Prince Lisao’s woman!"

"What nonsense are you talking?"

Ye Siyuan yanked down a strap of her slip dress, exposing a lifelike Little Golden Dragon on her left shoulder. "This wasn’t tattooed on," she declared. "It’s proof that I gave myself to Crown Prince Lisao. If you don’t believe me, ask my sister-in-law. She’ll be back soon."

Si Mingjing had been listening outside the door for a while and was planning to leave quietly.

However, the servant behind her respectfully called out, "Your Highness, the Crown Princess Consort."

Si Mingjing frowned inwardly.

Hearing the voice, Ye Siyuan immediately rushed out, grabbed her arm, and pulled her into the room, seeking support.

"Mingjing, tell me, do you support me?"

Si Mingjing: "..."

Si Mingjing felt she shouldn’t interfere in this topic. She glanced around, searching for Mo Yinhe, but didn’t see him in the living room.

"Where is your brother? What does he say?"

Asking that was pointless, Si Mingjing thought. Even with her eyes closed, she knew Mo Yinhe would never agree.

Only then did Ye Siyuan realize. "Right, where is my brother? He was here earlier, then he said he was going to the washroom..."

He went to the restroom twenty minutes ago and still isn’t out? Is he constipated? No, impossible!

Ye Siyuan immediately headed towards the restroom, but there was no sign of Mo Yinhe.

Panic seized Ye Siyuan’s heart. "Mingjing, Mingjing, quickly, go stop my brother! He’s definitely gone to find Crown Prince Lisao! Something terrible is going to happen!"

"Don’t worry, I’ll call him first."

Si Mingjing called him, but Mo Yinhe hung up on her.

This was the first time Mo Yinhe had ever hung up on her.

Si Mingjing called three times in a row before Mo Yinhe finally answered. "I have some matters to handle here," he said.

Just as he finished speaking, Si Mingjing heard Si Lisao’s voice, faint and intermittent through the phone, vaguely saying something like, "Mo Yinhe, Siyuan is your biological sister, and Mingjing is my biological sister..."

So, everyone was someone’s brother-in-law in this scenario? Si Mingjing mused.

Then she heard Mo Yinhe’s furious voice. "Fuck off!"

Si Mingjing didn’t hear the rest because Mo Yinhe ended the call.

When Si Mingjing tried calling again, it went straight to a message saying the user’s phone was off.

Helpless, she told Ye Siyuan, "His phone is off."

Ye Siyuan grabbed her wrist. "Mingjing, we have to find my brother! Otherwise, something really terrible will happen!"

"Okay."

Si Mingjing had heard Si Lisao say, "Mingjing is my biological sister." She was eager to know more details.

Her phone and Mo Yinhe’s phone had a mutual tracking function, so finding out his current location wasn’t particularly difficult.

Mo Yinhe was on a coastline.

Si Lisao stood alone, surrounded by Mo Yinhe’s men.

But at that moment, Mo Yinhe gestured for everyone to retreat five meters.

"Proposing marriage? Hah. It seems those ’two peanuts’ weren’t enough for you, were they? Si Lisao, what the hell are you trying to pull?"

Mo Yinhe’s face was ashen, his eyes blazing with fire. As he spoke, he took off his coat. He had also undone the tie of his white shirt, tossing it aside carelessly, and was now unbuttoning the shirt itself.

Si Lisao also tugged at the buttons on his collar and cuffs.

Both men seemed to tacitly agree that a fight was necessary to conclude today’s events.

"I genuinely want to marry your sister."

The words had barely left his lips when the dull thud of a fist hitting flesh echoed. Si Lisao’s left cheek took a hard punch from Mo Yinhe, and his body swayed.

Mo Yinhe grabbed Si Lisao’s collar and growled, "You actually dare to say that? Do you love her?"

"Love can be cultivated over time."

No sooner had Si Lisao finished speaking than Mo Yinhe’s fist smashed into him again.

So, this isn’t about love at all? Mo Yinhe thought. He doesn’t love my sister, yet he wants to marry her. Is it because of that photo Quan Yong sent him? Did he realize that my sister was the girl who helped him with his coming-of-age ceremony, and now he wants to take responsibility for her?

Mo Yinhe couldn’t tolerate Si Lisao’s condescending, almost pitying, and utterly absurd display of affection for his sister. He seethed, "If you don’t love her, then why do you want to marry her?"
