You Cannot Afford To Offend My Woman

However, at this moment, footsteps were heard outside the door. Ye Hua knew it was Wei Chang.

Besides Wei Chang's heavy footsteps, there was another light and graceful pair. One could discern a person's upbringing and manners from their footsteps.

Le Jing was pleased with what she heard—neither too slow nor too fast, exuding gentleness and respect.

Wei Chang appeared at the door, respectfully saying, "Your Highness, Madam, and Your Highness mother," clearly, a certain order in his mind.

Standing behind Wei Chang was a woman whose height met the ideal standards, similar to Qing Ya and others. Her fair skin was flawless, her figure perfect with delicate curves. Her rosy complexion exuded a shy charm, making her even more appealing.

She was a goddess-level figure. If it were the former Ye Juetian, he would have undoubtedly been infatuated.

But the present Ye Juetian just wanted to comfort Yi Yi in his arms.

"Come in," Ye Hua called calmly.

"Yes, Your Highness."

Wei Chang led Gong Yue into the room. It was her first time seeing everyone, making her quite nervous.

The events of the past few days had been bewildering for Gong Yue. Suddenly, someone came, telling her to get married, and there was no chance to say no.

Of course, Gong Yue didn't believe it until Wei Chang used a stone to defeat her doubts. Only then did she believe that the person she was going to marry was the brother of a Supreme Overlord.

Her first impression was that this Supreme Overlord's brother must be a fool. Why else would such a thing be necessary?

But now she realised he was not what she had imagined. He seemed very steady, and most importantly, exceptionally handsome—the type she liked. Just a moment ago, she was worried about what to do if he was ugly.

Now she could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Moreover, his elder brother was so powerful. If she became his first legal wife, it would be very beneficial for her in the future.

Gong Yue no longer felt averse to this marriage. She even saw it as an opportunity she had to seize. With her beauty, she should be able to do it.

"Little Tian, how about it? Don't you like her?" Ye Hua asked calmly.

Ye Juetian was startled for a moment, then smiled, "I like her. She's too beautiful."

Hearing Ye Juetian praise her, Gong Yue lowered her head slightly, looking shy.

Le Jing was very satisfied with this daughter-in-law. "Young lady, it must have been tiring on the journey. Are you hungry?"

"Empress Dowager, this humble girl is not hungry," Gong Yue replied respectfully."What's your name?" [Changing Emperor's mother to Empress Dowager, seems more royal.]

"I am surnamed Gong, with the given name Yue," Gong Yue replied softly. In terms of beauty, Yi Yi might have a slight advantage, but Gong Yue exuded much more confidence. Coupled with her gorgeous attire, it further highlighted Gong Yue's beauty, making Yi Yi seem like a clown at this moment.

Le Jing smiled softly and said, "A good name. What do you think of my son?"

Gong Yue blushed slightly, expressing shyly, "I... I am very satisfied, but I'm afraid I may not be worthy."

Everyone was pleased with Gong Yue's attitude. Ye Hua was highly satisfied; women should submit willingly.

Gong Yue was not a fool. Lowering herself to elevate her future husband was necessary and created a positive impression.

However, Ye Juetian felt nothing, but he had to maintain an appearance of satisfaction.

Yi Yi, on the side, listened quietly, watching Ye Juetian's seemingly satisfied smile, feeling a coldness in her heart.

"Little Tian, accompany her for a walk," Le Jing said softly, suggesting they get to know each other better. This lady was indeed quite good.

Ye Juetian had no choice but to stand up, stealing a glance at Yi Yi, who seemed uncomfortable, causing a faint ache in his heart.

"Let's go," Ye Juetian walked to Gong Yue's side and said softly.

Gong Yue shyly agreed and then excused herself, displaying polite manners.

Qian Yuqing started feeling a bit worried. Ye Hua's actions were too fast, not giving them time to react. Finding someone so quickly, and willingly at that, raised concerns.

Qing Ya was also puzzled. If this lady had any resistance, there would still be a chance, but she seemed genuinely happy, devoid of any conflicting emotions.

Watching Ye Juetian leave with Gong Yue, Yi Yi didn't know what to do. She appeared helpless and confused.

"Mother, I'll leave first. Little Tian's affairs should be settled now," Ye Hua said softly.

"Well, you've worked hard, Ye Hua," Le Jing said gently, hoping that Little Tian, after marriage, would become a bit more sensible like Ye Hua.

"Mother, don't mention it. Little Tian is my younger brother. His affairs are naturally my affairs."

Le Jing nodded, hoping for a successful outcome.

"Wei Chang, come with me."

"Yes."

Qing Ya and the others did not follow Ye Hua outside, choosing to stay and accompany their mother-in-law.

Ye Hua and Wei Chang walked in the palace. Ye Hua took out a cigarette, lit it, and asked casually, "How is the character of this woman?"

"Your Majesty, I've inquired, and this woman has a good character, always following the rules," Wei Chang reported. In such matters, Wei Chang naturally took it seriously, so the investigation was thorough.

But changing a woman's mindset could be done in an instant.

"Any leads on the materials?"

"Your Majesty, due to the rarity of the materials, it's quite challenging," Wei Chang whispered. All the materials mentioned by Your Majesty were rare items, making them difficult to find.

"Keep searching, consider it a break from your duties."

"Yes! Your Majesty, I take my leave." With that, Wei Chang disappeared.

Ye Hua smoked, observing as Ye Juetian and Gong Yue left the palace.

'Little Tian, you asked me to find you someone outstanding and beautiful. Now, this deity has found one for you, and she seems satisfied. Don't make a fuss!'

Ye Juetian and Gong Yue left the palace. Ye Juetian didn't say a word, and Gong Yue followed behind him, unsure of what to say. This was the first time she faced such a situation. Previously, it was always other men pursuing her.

Ye Juetian didn't care about the woman behind him. His thoughts were entirely on the distressed Yi Yi. He really wanted to shake off the woman behind him.

"I still don't know your name," Gong Yue spoke up first, trying to initiate a conversation, standing obediently beside him and whispering. Although she already knew his name, she intentionally asked again to spark a conversation.

If he hadn't encountered Yi Yi, Ye Juetian would have been satisfied with Gong Yue. But now, in Ye Juetian's heart, there was only room for Yi Yi. Other women couldn't squeeze in.

"I am Ye Juetian."

After saying that, Ye Juetian fell silent, seemingly unwilling to say another word.

This left Gong Yue a bit helpless. It seemed that Ye Juetian was being forced into this marriage.
