All the other women could forget about landing him.

Naturally, she felt that she would be the only woman worthy of matching up to someone like Su Ye. The other daughters from rich families, movie stars, singers, models, and influencers could all get lost.

He Xiyan blinked in surprise and reached out to pat Ye Hao’s hand. “Your sister is actually dating Su Ye.”

Ye Hao scoffed coldly and didn’t even look up. His eyes were both cold and dark.

“She’s an idiot,” he surmised coldly without a trace of emotion at all.

“Ah... aren’t they rather compatible? They are of equal rank and status so I’m sure dad would be very pleased,” He Xiyan speculated that if her father-in-law knew that his precious daughter had landed such a husband, he would extremely excited. If Ye Shiyu was truly dating someone like Su Ye, this would also elevate her status within the Ye family.

“He’s just toying with her. Do you really think Su Ye would be interested in someone like her?” Ye Hao snorted disdainfully as he glanced at his sister who he thought was extremely obnoxious. He knew what kind of man Su Ye was like and also knew that he had probably toyed with around a hundred different women, so why would he fall for someone like his sister who resembled a pig?

Ye Hao immediately called for the bill. The movie was about to start so they had to head to the theatres to collect the tickets first.

As for Ye Shiyu, he couldn’t be bothered to meddle in her affairs, neither was he interested in doing so.

“Come on, let’s go to the movies.”

Then, he held He Xiyan’s hand and they left the restaurant together.

Ye Shiyu knew that her brother and sister-in-law were dining at the same restaurant but she didn’t head over to greet them.

She didn’t want to go over since her brother was always ignoring her, so why should she act all friendly to him when he wasn’t receptive? Furthermore, she didn’t want to look at He Xiyan’s face.

Su Ye smiled with a mix of elegance and naughtiness and his long and sloe-eyed features were very amorous. He played with the jade ring on his left ring finger. It was carved from natural imperial jade and it was very gorgeous and exuded a mysterious imperial air.

He looked at Ye Shiyu who sat opposite him and suddenly smiled as he stated, “Miss Ye doesn’t seem to be on very good terms with your brother.”

Ye Shiyu frowned, slightly taken aback by Su Ye’s words.

She rubbed at her hands and she was very nervous, afraid that Su Ye might think that she was immature if she said the wrong thing. After all, she was six or seven years younger than he was.

“You’re wrong. We’re actually very close. He is out on a date with my sister-in-law today and I was worried that I might interrupt their date, so I kept my distance.”

Ye Shiyu said sweetly and she smiled in a ladylike manner as though she was truly a lady.

“Oh...” Su Ye pursed his lips and smiled, “I saw your sister-in-law earlier. To be honest, I don’t think much of your brother’s standards.”

Su Ye smiled once more and revealed a set of pearly white and straight teeth as he looked evenly at ye Shiyu.

Ye Shiyu’s eyes suddenly widened as though she had found someone who truly understood her.

“Do you really think so too?”

Su Ye nodded in agreement.

Ye Shiyu said, “I knew it. Anyone with a pair of eyes would be able to tell that my sister-in-law isn’t compatible with my brother at all but my brother treats her like a gem. She’s just a scheming little bitch who is already considered second-hand goods. I get annoyed just by looking at her.”

Ye Shiyu said frankly then immediately clapped one hand over her mouth. Her mother had already reminded her to remain ladylike and mature today but what she ended up blurting out earlier...

She suddenly felt like digging a hole for herself and thought that Su Ye would probably have already discovered that she was just pretending to act like a lady the entire time.
