Upon hearing this, Ye Tian put down the secret report in his hand, and a gentle smile appeared on his lips.
He knew that voice all too well.
It was his childhood sweetheart, Lin Wan'er.
"Sister Wan'er, come in."
Ye Tian said loudly.
The door was pushed open, and a beautiful figure walked in gracefully.
The Lin Wan'er before my eyes is no longer the slightly naive little girl with her hair in two buns.
She is now fifteen years old.
She grew into a graceful and beautiful young woman, with an unparalleled beauty that was breathtaking.
She wore an elegant, plain-colored long dress with a light purple ribbon tied around her waist, which made her figure appear even more graceful and slender.
Her long, jet-black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and she casually tied it into a bun with a simple jade hairpin.
A few playful strands of hair fell across her smooth forehead, adding to her charm and allure.
Her skin remained as white as snow and as delicate as porcelain, seemingly fragile enough to break at a touch.
Those bright eyes, as clear as autumn water, yet carrying a hint of melancholy, evoked feelings of tenderness and affection.
At this moment, her pretty face showed a hint of joy at seeing Ye Tianhou and an almost imperceptible shyness.
"Little brother Tian."
Lin Wan'er walked up to Ye Tian and called out softly, her voice filled with tenderness and affection.
"Sister Wan'er, what brings you here to see me today?"
Ye Tian asked with a smile, his eyes filled with doting affection.
He genuinely loved this kind, innocent girl who was deeply devoted to him.
Upon hearing this, Lin Wan'er blushed slightly and said somewhat shyly, "Yes, it's Mother."
"Mother said she misses you and asked Wan'er to come and see you."
Her voice grew softer and softer, and her head gradually lowered.
Actually, it wasn't that Li Yunrui missed Ye Tian.
It was clearly she herself who, after thinking about him day and night, and longing for him, used her mother's name to come and see Ye Tian.
Ye Tian looked at her shy and cute appearance and chuckled to himself, but he didn't say anything.
He knew that Lin Wan'er's feelings for him had long surpassed the ordinary sibling relationship.
She has even reached a point of near-obsession, much like her mother, Li Yunrui.
However, it was different from Li Yunrui's love, which was full of possessiveness and obsession.
Lin Wan'er's love is purer, more selfless, and also more heartbreaking.
"Mother is so kind."
Ye Tian said with a smile.
"I'm planning to visit my mother and sister at home soon."
Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Lin Wan'er's eyes.
"Really? That's great!"
"My mother will be so happy to know!"
Her face was beaming with a happy smile, which seemed to light up the entire room.
Looking at her innocent smile, Ye Tian couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart.
He knew that he had gained another person in this world worth protecting.
And with it, a heavy responsibility.
His path to revenge may become even more complicated as a result.
But it will certainly become more meaningful because of this.
·······
At Lin Wan'er's "enthusiastic invitation," Ye Tian once again stepped into the Princess's mansion, a place that was both familiar and carried a hint of danger.
The mansion remained as luxurious and grand as ever, but there seemed to be a sense of oppressive unease in the air.
Li Yunrui was already waiting outside the bedroom.
When she saw Ye Tian and Lin Wan'er walking side by side, an indescribable fiery light instantly burst forth in her beautiful phoenix eyes!
Her gaze was almost greedily fixed on Ye Tian, as if she wanted to devour him alive.
"Tian'er!"
Li Yunrui's voice carried a hint of barely suppressed excitement and longing.
She strode forward, ignoring Lin Wan'er beside her, and stretched out her arms to tightly embrace Ye Tian!
The soft, elastic touch and the rich, unique fragrance emanating from her body instantly enveloped Ye Tian!
"Mother,"
Ye Tian let out a helpless cry, secretly on guard.
He could clearly sense that Li Yunrui's emotions were more unstable than ever before.
"My goodness, you've finally come back to see your mother!"
Li Yunrui buried her face in Ye Tian's neck, greedily inhaling the scent emanating from him that haunted her dreams.
Her voice carried a hint of morbid obsession and possessiveness.
"Your mother thinks about you day and night; she's going crazy thinking about you."
Lin Wan'er, standing to the side, felt a little disappointed and jealous as she watched her mother's "intimate" behavior towards Ye Tian.
But more than anything, she was happy that her mother was finally able to see her beloved "little brother Tian".
She was unaware that her mother's feelings for Ye Tian had long surpassed ordinary mother-son affection, reaching a forbidden and dangerous edge.
"Wan'er, you may leave now."
Li Yunrui suddenly raised his head and spoke to Lin Wan'er, his tone carrying an unquestionable command.
Upon hearing this, Lin Wan'er, though somewhat unwilling, obediently nodded, bowed, and turned to leave.
Inside the bedchamber, only Ye Tian and Li Yunrui remained.
The atmosphere instantly became somewhat ambiguous and dangerous.
Li Yunrui took Ye Tian's hand and led him to sit down on the soft brocade couch.
Her beautiful phoenix eyes, like burning flames, were fixed on Ye Tian, as if she wanted to melt him completely.
"Tian'er,"
Her voice became hoarse and alluring, filled with a deadly temptation.
"Do you know how hard my mother has suffered all these years?"
"Without you by my side, my mother feels that the whole world has lost its color."
Her delicate hand gently stroked Ye Tian's cheek, and the cool touch stirred a strange heat within him.
"Mother, your child, I've come back to see you!"
Ye Tian tried his best to remain calm and steer the conversation back on track.
However, Li Yunrui didn't give him that chance at all.
She slowly approached Ye Tian, her glossy red lips almost touching his earlobe.
"Tian'er, Mother knows you've grown up."
Her breath, carrying a hint of heat, sprayed against Ye Tian's ear, making him feel a tingling sensation all over his body.
"You know how your mother feels about you."
"Let's stop torturing each other, okay?"
Her voice was full of seduction and a hint of humble pleading.
Ye Tian's heart was pounding wildly, like a drumbeat!
He knew that Li Yunrui was about to lay all his cards on the table!
He could even clearly feel Li Yunrui's soft and elastic body rubbing against him, intentionally or unintentionally!
The intoxicating touch and the mesmerizing fragrance emanating from her body made Ye Tian feel that his willpower was undergoing an unprecedented test!
The primal urge within him roared wildly once more!
"Mother, please, please don't do this."
Ye Tian's voice trembled slightly, almost imperceptibly.
He knew he had to get out of this dangerous situation as soon as possible!
Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"What do you mean by 'don't'?" Li Yunrui stared at Ye Tian, her eyes flashing with a crazed light.
"Tian'er, don't you feel anything for your mother at all?"
"My mother knew that our relationship was unacceptable to society."
"But if we truly love each other, why should we care about the opinions of the world?"
Her red lips drew closer and closer, almost touching Ye Tian's lips!
Alarm bells rang loudly in Ye Tian's mind!
He bit his tongue hard, and the intense pain instantly brought him to his senses!
"That's enough!"
Ye Tian shoved Li Yunrui away abruptly and said in an icy voice.
"Your Highness! Please have some self-respect!"
"I am your adopted son! Not your plaything!"
His voice was filled with anger and determination.
Li Yunrui was pushed away by Ye Tian and fell awkwardly onto the brocade couch.
She looked at Ye Tian's face, which was filled with anger and aloofness, and the flame in her heart was instantly extinguished!
Instead, there was endless coldness and despair.
"You, you still despise me after all."
Her voice was choked with sobs, and tears streamed down her face like beads from a broken string.
"You're just like her, you're all the same."
"They all despise me, they all want to leave me."
Her emotions spiraled out of control again, escalating into a morbid obsession.
Looking at her pitiful and heartbroken appearance, Ye Tian's anger subsided somewhat.
He knew that although Li Yunrui acted erratically, she had truly given him all her feelings.
However, this feeling was too heavy, and too twisted.
"Mother, please calm down."
Ye Tian took a deep breath and tried to soften his tone.
