Chapter 93 My Brother Returns to Beijing (1)
Qin Yaoyao, like a cheerful little bird, lightly took He Yanxi's strong arm and said in a sweet and coquettish voice, "Brother Xi, you are so good to me!" As she spoke, she gently shook He Yanxi's arm, her face beaming with a sweet and satisfied smile.
Looking at the lovely and charming woman before him, He Yanxi felt a surge of affection. He couldn't help but reach out and gently pinch Qin Yaoyao's delicate nose, a tender smile playing on his lips. Then he said softly, "My little darling, have you decided which friends you want to invite to come and play?"
Qin Yaoyao nodded obediently, blinking her big, bright eyes, and answered earnestly, "Yes, I've already thought about it! I plan to invite Sister Ying, Xuanxuan, and Sister Xiaoran to come and play together." After saying that, she seemed to remember something important, paused, and then continued, "Oh, right, there's also the Fifth Prince, Zeyu, and Zefei. And I'll bring Qiuye and the others too, so remember to bring Lanfeng and Lanyu as well."
Qin Yaoyao tilted her head and thought for a while, then her eyes suddenly lit up, and she excitedly added, "Hehe, Brother Xi, do you think this gathering will bring about more wonderful romances? Like Qiuye and Lanfeng, who will eventually become a couple!" He Yanxi was amused by her innocent appearance and couldn't help but reach out and ruffle her soft hair, teasing her with a smile, "Oh dear, why is my Yaoyao playing matchmaker again?"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yaoyao playfully stuck out her tongue and replied with a grin, "Of course! I'm living such a happy life, so of course I hope all my good friends can find their true love! Now that Qiuye and Lanfeng are together, it's only natural that the marriage prospects of my other girls need to be put on the agenda as soon as possible!"
He Yanxi's lips curled up slightly as she said softly, "Then I'll bring Lan Yu, Mu Feng, and Mu Yu along too. After all, our Yao Yao is going to be a matchmaker, so it's good to bring more people to help." She finished speaking with a doting smile on her face.
Qin Yaoyao blinked her big eyes and asked with a face full of curiosity, "Are they the two guard brothers we saw in Xiyao Valley before?"
He Yanxi smiled and nodded in agreement.
Qin Yaoyao couldn't help but exclaim, "Their names sound so similar!"
He Yanxi patiently explained, "Yes, Mu Feng and Mu Yu are indeed brothers. When I saved them back then, I thought their names were nice, so I didn't think about changing them."
Qin Yaoyao nodded as if she suddenly understood, and replied, "Oh, I see!"
At this moment, He Yanxi gazed tenderly at Qin Yaoyao and asked softly, "Sister Yaoyao, besides these, do you have any other desires or wishes?"
Qin Yaoyao tilted her head and thought seriously for a moment, then said with a hint of melancholy, "Actually... I miss my older brother a little. If I think about it, it's been many years since I've seen him. It would be so nice if he could be with me for my birthday this time." As she spoke, a hint of expectation and longing appeared in her eyes.
He Yanxi smiled and gently comforted her, "Don't worry, Yao Yao. Your brother had already issued the imperial edict to recall them. If I think about it carefully, the edict should have been delivered by now. I imagine it won't be long before your brother returns safely." After saying that, he looked tenderly at Qin Yao Yao, who had a worried expression on her face.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yaoyao's beautiful face immediately lit up with surprise. She tightly grasped He Yanxi's hand and eagerly asked, "Really? Brother Xi, you mustn't be lying to me!" Her bright, watery eyes were filled with anticipation and unease.
He Yanxi couldn't help but laugh at her appearance. He reached out and gently pinched her small nose, saying affectionately, "Of course it's true, my silly girl. When have I ever lied to you?"
Hearing this, Qin Yaoyao finally felt relieved. She was as happy as a joyful bird, and immediately threw herself into He Yanxi's arms, wrapping her arms tightly around his waist and burying her head in his broad chest, feeling his warmth and reassurance. He Yanxi, in turn, embraced her, gently stroking her soft, long hair, a happy smile on his lips.
