As for the rest of the Yue Clan members, they were all dumbfounded, not understanding why the Third Miss would disregard propriety and hug Xue An in public.
Only Yue Junze gave Xue An a cheeky smile and secretly gave him a thumbs up, his face full of admiration.
Because in his view, Commander Xue was simply too impressive.
To make his cousin, who is recognized as a goddess by the younger generation of the Bing Family, throw herself into his arms in front of so many people—if that’s not impressive, what is?
Under all those watching eyes, Xue An felt as if his hair was standing on end.
Because the anger within his mind was not to be taken lightly.
Yet he couldn’t directly break free either, because that would only cement his reputation as a "scumbag."
So, he could only give a wry smile.
"Okay, okay, Qinghuan, let go of me first; everyone’s watching, it’s so improper!" Xue An gently persuades.
But Yue Qinghuan was being stubborn now, and no matter what Xue An said, she wouldn’t let go.
Cold sweat broke out on Xue An’s forehead.
This was the first time he experienced what it truly meant to be on pins and needles.
It wasn’t that he was afraid of those glaring looks, but the anger in his mind was growing stronger.
Just then, Yue Shifang suddenly parted the crowd and walked over.
Seeing him, Xue An looked at him as if he had seen his savior, full of pleading eyes.
Yue Shifang had an expression that was half-smiling, and ignored Xue An’s pleading gaze, casually walking over and pretending to be surprised, "Oh my, what are you doing?"
Upon hearing her brother’s voice, Yue Qinghuan trembled slightly and instinctively let go of her hold.
Xue An took the chance to stand up immediately, "Ah, it’s nothing, we were just talking!"
Yue Qinghuan shot Xue An a resentful look, then gave her brother a hard glare before her figure flashed and she vanished from the spot.
After she left, Xue An couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief.
But the next second, he was choked up by Yue Shifang’s remark.
"Boy, you’ve got quite the guts to flirt with my sister right in front of me!"
Xue An’s heart felt like a thousand galloping horses were rushing over it, but he was too embarrassed to swear in front of so many people, so he lowered his voice.
"What do you mean?"
"What do I mean? You were hugging and holding my sister right in front of everyone, and you still ask what I mean?" Yue Shifang had an expression that enjoyed the drama.
Seeing that mischievous look in his eyes, Xue An suddenly understood.
This guy was clearly trying to stand up for his sister.
Meanwhile, Cha Wenliang and Ao Shu also stepped over.
Actually, they both saw what had just happened.
If not for Cha Wenliang holding Ao Shu back tightly, the furious Dragon Lady would probably have already charged over.
Even now, her face still held traces of anger as she stood coldly behind Cha Wenliang, not even greeting Xue An.
Cha Wenliang, however, uncharacteristically played the peacemaker.
"Ahem, such a beautiful day, let’s talk less about irrelevant matters. Come, let’s drink!"
With that, he raised a wine glass, passing it to Yue Shifang and Xue An.
For this Ghost Needle Divine Doctor who had cured him, Yue Shifang naturally had to show respect, so he smiled and took the glass.
"Thank you!"
Xue An was also eager to quickly cover up this matter, so he accepted it as well.
After the three of them drank their wine, the storm finally passed.
Then Cha Wenliang smiled and said to Yue Shifang, "Patriarch Yue, you’re busy with duties today, you should go entertain the guests. I have a few words for Xue An!"
