Chapter 162: 162: The Beginning of the Conspiracy

Ye Fei chuckled and gently patted Ye Yunqi's head, shaking his head at her teasing. "Don't start with that nonsense," he said, but the playful exchange lightened the mood as they continued their walk together.

Ye Yunqi stuck out her tongue, then turned to Lin Ling, who was quietly listening. "Don't mind me, sister-in-law," she said, "I'm just talking nonsense."

Though Ye Yunqi often referred to Lin Ling as 'sister-in-law,' it still made Lin Ling blush every time she heard it. Softly, she replied, "I know. Besides, Brother Ye wouldn't go for a girl like Xiao Fei."

Ye Yunqi gave her a sly look. "Oh? It sounds like my sister-in-law is feeling pretty confident!" She teased. "Tell me, if there were a girl like me, do you think your brother Ye would like her?"

Lin Ling responded without hesitation, "Of course! If I were a boy, I would definitely fall for you."
