Bab 1127: Chapter 1129: Luring_1

"But you are my cousin, if not 'cousin' then what should I call you?" Cao Lingling felt wronged; after all, their families were relatives.

At this thought, she couldn't help but resent her grandparents. Why sever ties with other people for no reason? Now, an opportunity for wealth presented itself before her, yet because of the broken familial connection, she found herself shunned.

Ye Zi'an had no desire to waste words with her, fearing it would lead to an endless argument.

So he planned to walk past her, but inside he wondered why his wife hadn't yet sent her away.

"Cousin, wait," Cao Lingling hurriedly called out when she saw him leaving.

But Ye Zi'an didn't stop. She quickly added, "Cousin, Sister-in-law Li told me to wait here for you, saying that the bathwater is in the side room, and the madam of the harem has already gone to sleep."

Hearing this, Ye Zi'an turned back to look at her.
