Lifting her gaze to see Li Mochan coming downstairs, a gentle smile spread across her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Come and take a look at this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Karina heard Ye Jiuliang’s name, the smile on her face vanished instantaneously. The force with which she held the scissors wasn’t controlled, and she ended up damaging the rose’s stem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking over to Veya, Ye Jiuliang raised an eyebrow, \"What’s this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We just picked some flowers from the garden and are arranging them. Do you want to give it a try?\" Veya offered warmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arranging flowers?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang’s lips curved up into a smirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt picking flowers suited her better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, I’ll just watch you guys do it. I don’t know how,\" she said frankly, \"I might ruin these flowers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A snort of derision sounded beside them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karina glanced at her disdainfully, \"At least you’re aware of your limits.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A good-for-nothing scoundrel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The atmosphere suddenly became a tad awkward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veya’s head began to ache a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing Karina’s words, Ye Jiuliang didn’t get upset. Her eyes casually swept over the bouquet in front of Karina.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you arrange these flowers?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karina lifted her head with confidence, \"Of course.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang nodded, her tone languid, \"Not bad, quite beautiful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karina stood frozen, not expecting Ye Jiuliang to compliment her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, Ye Jiuliang’s following remark plunged the atmosphere, which had just lightened a bit, back into an icy chill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was just saying it casually. Don’t be too moved by it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang picked up a purple rose, sniffing it lightly near her nose, again with that ruffian-like casualness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meeting her teasing smile, Karina was infuriated, \"Who’s moved? Shameless.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across from her, Veya looked down, forcing back a laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang shrugged and walked away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, the man’s tall silhouette was cast upon it, the soft lighting blurring his contours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Ye Jiuliang approach through the window, Li Mochan’s lips curled up. He said a few words into his phone and then hung up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stretched out his arms, pulling her into his embrace, \"Where did you get this flower?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang swayed the purple rose in her hand, her red lips curving up slightly, \"Picked it up over there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan followed her gaze briefly, then calmly withdrew his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He asked, \"Don’t you like flower arranging?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang lifted her head from his chest, pouting, \"I don’t know how.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such talents like flower arranging had nothing to do with her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan couldn’t help but chuckle, a deep laughter escaping his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So there was something his little wolf pup couldn’t do.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You think it’s funny?\" Ye Jiuliang grabbed his collar, her lips curling into a dangerous smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being laughed at wasn’t okay?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan stifled his amusement, \"A little.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Right, there’s no shortage of women around Li Wuye who possess such talents as flower arrangement. Many ladies and daughters of nobility must have it,\" Ye Jiuliang said coolly as she pulled away from the iron arm around her waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why doesn’t Li Wuye find someone else?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The iron arm that had been pushed away wrapped around her waist once more. Li Mochan pulled her closer into his embrace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corners of his thin lips curved slightly, \"I only like the little wolf pup.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What other lady could compare to one \"wolf pup\"?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough with the sweet talk,\" Ye Jiuliang huffed, lightly hitting his head with the rose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get away from me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan lost himself in laughter, holding the person in his arms tightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some laughed, while others felt desolate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karina watched the two embracing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, her eyes growing dim, a desolate expression difficult to hide on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling her spirits fall, Veya put down the scissors and raised her hand to pat her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Karina, everyone will meet their destined one. He will definitely appear one day in the future,\" she said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Karina hung her head, silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet she had liked him for so many years, her childhood dream was only to marry him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dinner, Karina left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before leaving, she cast a complicated look at Ye Jiuliang, only to be caught red-handed by the latter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can’t bear to leave me?\" Jiuliang teased in a casual tone, making Karina’s face turn red once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Rascal, shameless, thick-skinned.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Never having been one to use foul language, these few terms were all she repeated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She shot Ye Jiuliang a glare and walked away briskly in her high heels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Jiuliang turned her gaze back to the person beside her, plaintively saying, \"She called me a rascal again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was there such an adorable rascal as her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan flicked her forehead with his finger, \"Don’t tease others at will.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiuliang’s lips curled into a smile, \"Then whom shall I tease?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Me,\" he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You have such thick skin, I can’t tease you,\" she said, reaching out to poke his cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Mochan smirked intriguingly and suddenly reached out to tickle her waist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The killer move, tickling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Taken by surprise, she was a victim of his success, laughing and retreating, \"Hey, Li Mochan, a gentleman should use his words, not his hands. You’re still sneaking up with this trick? How disgraceful, ha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who told you I was a gentleman?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Li Mochan is playing dirty everybody, come and see!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The silvery moonlight shone over the courtyard, where two figures chased and played, one after the other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>F Country\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, the wind passed without a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Street lights came on, casting a white glow on the tall plane trees, their cool green foliage etched with a hint of loneliness. The wind, as it blew, occasionally rustled the leaves with a whispering sound.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a corner of the wall, a tall figure squatted stealthily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps too nervous, he didn’t notice someone approaching from behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the darkness, the person behind reached out and placed a hand on his shoulder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The calm voice carried a respectful note, taking the squatting individual by surprise and causing him to leap up abruptly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The faint light illuminated the handsome features of the young boy, his eyes still showing the tension and fright that had not yet disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recognizing who it was, the boy sighed with relief, \"Alei, you scared me to death. Could you make some noise next time you walk?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alei listened stoically to the scolding, thinking that his footsteps had been loud enough; it was only the boy’s nervousness that had prevented him from noticing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’ve come at the right time. This wall is too high for me to climb over. Can you boost me up?\" The boy pulled him closer, whispering.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alei shook his head, and in his mechanical voice, he said, \"Young Master, the lady has returned, and she is now waiting for you in the living room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My mom is back?\" The boy’s face showed utter astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wasn’t his mother supposed to return the day after tomorrow?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alei nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t care; I have to go out today. Help me quickly,\" the boy pleaded, gripping Alei’s sleeve tightly, his brows furrowed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alei, please help me out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since he had returned the last time, he had been grounded at home. It had been hard enough just to see his sister, and what if she forgot about him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had to get out more often to make a good impression in front of his sister.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alei remained expressionless and continued, \"Young Master, the lady already knows you’re squatting here planning to climb the wall. She said if you don’t go to the living room to see her now, she will come over to fetch you personally, and then you’ll be grounded for more than a month.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1295,"2026-05-30T05:18:55.761Z","2026-06-01T04:30:24.264Z",1,"novelbin.me","4af220197b7d565058836058fc12262fa7cb06b13ea0cd264fd6e93610e4a180","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-272","the-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-chapter-270",877,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-lady-of-the-prestigious-family-is-a-big-boss-cover.jpg"]
