Ye Yang looked at Ye Mo and Ye Ling, then looked again at the crowded streets outside the window.
The streets were not as narrow or as small as the ones in Anping Town. In fact, they extended in all directions just like a labyrinth.
“Fine.”
He also thought it would be a good idea to look around first, in case they dragged Liu Duo everywhere later and could not find their way back.
Ye Mo did not oppose that, but Ye Ling said, “I’m not going, Liu. I’ll stay with Duo Er.”
He could not leave his wife here alone.
What if Liu Duo woke up earlier than usual? She was finally in the capital, so it was possible she would rise early out of excitement.
If someone stayed behind, she would have pany when she woke up.
“That’s fine too. Thank you for volunteering, Ling. That way, Little Duo won’t be looking for us anxiously.” Ye Liu absolutely loved how caring and considerate his youngest brother was. It must have been a blessing from his past life to have Ye Ling as family.
After that, the other three men left the inn.
They were of about the same height. Even if Ye Liu and Ye Mo looked the most alike, Ye Mo still shared some likenesses with them, since they were all brothers at the end of the day.
They might not have been wearing the best clothes, but their walking side by side could still make heads turn.
After all, who wouldn’t want to sneak a few more looks at handsome men?
They seemed to be leisurely looking about as they walked, but in fact they were taking in the more eye-catching landmarks on the streets as well as taking note of what each stall was selling. Yet they bought nothing.
At the inn and out of boredom, Ye Ling stood by the window and peered at the crowded streets of the capital down below. The scenery was not too different from that in Anping Town.
Perhaps the streets were wider, and the vendors sold items and food of higher standards.
He observed for a good ten minutes before resigning into the inner room.
Liu Duo was still sound asleep on the bed. She must have been in a good mood, because the corners of her lips curled up.
Ye Ling moved a stool and sat by the bed, watching her sleep. He smiled too.
He whispered to himself, “Duo Er looks great, unlike the noisy streets.”
If Liu Duo heard that, she would have loved it.
Ye Ling could be a sweet talker too!
He stayed by her side for about half an hour.
When Liu Duo woke up, she was greeted by Ye Ling’s handsome face.
“Ling?” She rubbed her eyes and slowly sat up. “What are you doing here?”
This was the first time she’d woken up to Ye Ling sitting next to her.
Ye Ling smiled and said bashfully, “There’s nothing to do around here. The streets don’t have much to look at, so I came to stay with you.”
What he said made sense, but Liu Duo wondered if he got bored just sitting there and watching her.
“Where are the others?”
Since they had nothing else to do while she slept, they should be discussing among themselves what they would do next in the capital.
Yet it seemed like the other three were not around!
“They went to town.” Ye Ling gave the honest reply. “Well, we’re not familiar with the capital, right? We just got here after all. So, they decided to look around so that we would not be wandering about like headless chickens later!”
