A Professional Prodigal Son

The whole place fell silent. No one dared to bid further, unless they wanted to offend him, or knew that the contents inside were truly valuable.

After a moment of stunned silence, the auctioneer immediately said, "One hundred thousand. Thirteenth Young Master Ye has bid one hundred thousand. Is there anyone higher? One hundred thousand, going once..."

Very quickly, the auctioneer finished counting. The countdown was unusually fast, completely unlike the normal auction where each call would drag on for several minutes.

This was also quite normal. After all, everyone knew that besides Thirteenth Young Master Ye, the prodigal son, it was hard to find anyone else willing to bid, so there was no point in anyone else competing.

In fact, it was true. Everyone was curious, wanting to know what was inside. They all craned their necks in anticipation, but they were disappointed. Thirteenth Young Master paid the money and hurried away.

He ran off so quickly, could the item inside be a treasure? Was that why this prodigal son was in such a hurry? Many people were suspicious, but if they heard the following conversation, they would understand that it was nothing like that.

"Excuse me, Ye Manor!" After stopping a horse-drawn carriage and getting on, Tiger Girl looked at the box in her hand and asked, "Young Master, do you know what's inside?"

Although she felt that the answer might make her feel helpless, she couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"I don't know." As expected, the little prodigal son shook his head and replied.

"...You still bid one hundred thousand without knowing?" Tiger Girl shook her head helplessly, then put the item into her Space Pouch.

Although it was said that the little prodigal son also possessed a decent Space Ring, his ring was very empty, with almost nothing in it. This was because basically all his belongings were kept by Tiger Girl.

There was a reason for this. He bought things without considering whether he could use them, and he wasn't very clear about their functions. Tiger Girl was different. Even if she didn't know, she would find out. Only when kept by her could the items' practicality be maximized.

There was also one more point. In fact, with Tiger Girl or with the little prodigal son, it was the same. The two of them were inseparable, a perfect couple, uh, wrong, a master and servant.

"This is true prodigal spending. Others who are prodigal spend on things they like or that have value. I'm different. I don't care if I like it or if it has value. I want to be prodigal, so I'm prodigal. I want to squander, so I squander." The little prodigal son said very seriously, with a hint of disdain in his tone, as if he disdained those so-called prodigal sons.

"Sigh... I knew you'd say that. Why is it that every time it's about this, your words are a bit different? Were you born to be a prodigal son?" Tiger Girl was even more helpless. At the same time, she was also very strange. Her young master was slow in everything, and his speech was a bit disorganized.

But every time it came to prodigal spending, he seemed to be clear-headed, although these were all unreasonable justifications that made people annoyed.

Since the little prodigal son didn't know what was inside, why was he in such a hurry? Of course, it was to go back to the imperial palace to attend his and his "wife's" birthday banquet.

They had already spent more than an hour and a half at the auction house. When they reached the limit, if they didn't go back soon, his parents would send people to fetch him.

"You little brat, why are you only back now? Didn't I tell you to come back earlier today? Never mind that, hurry up and get in the carriage. Taiya is on the carriage helping him change clothes." When the greatest prodigal son of the Ye Family returned to the entrance of Ye Manor and just got off the carriage, someone grabbed his ear and directly pulled him into a luxurious carriage that had been waiting.

"Mom, it hurts..." The little prodigal son cried out in pain. The one twisting his ear was none other than Long Anqi, who was waiting at the entrance. She was one of the only two people who would do such a thing to him.

Why say only two? Of course, it meant there were two people. However, the other person was not his father, but his sister, Ye Lanyu.

"Haha, serves you right! I told you to run away when I wasn't paying attention," Ye Lanyu said, clapping her hands, looking very pleased.

"I didn't," the little prodigal son shook his head, denying Ye Lanyu's accusation.

"Still saying you didn't? Didn't I ask you to go play with me?" Ye Lanyu said with slight anger.

"Yes, you asked," the little prodigal son nodded and said slowly.

"Then still say you didn't!" Ye Lanyu hit the little prodigal son's forehead with her hand.

"But I didn't say I'd go with you!"

"..." Ye Lanyu was silent.

"I don't like shopping with you. You always dress me up to look like you," the little prodigal son continued, explaining why he didn't go with Ye Lanyu.

"..." Ye Lanyu became even more silent.

Perhaps you don't understand. It's actually very simple. What our Thirteenth Young Master meant by dressing up to look like Ye Lanyu wasn't cross-dressing as her, but dressing up in a similar style to her. Simply put, he was dressed as a girl.

At that time, our Thirteenth Young Master was still young, with watery eyes and delicate, fair skin. Dressed as a girl, he could be described as stunningly beautiful, though that's an exaggeration. However, it's undeniable that his cross-dressing was very cute.

After all, he was just a child around ten years old. Even if it were someone else, if Ye Lanyu had grabbed them and dressed them up similarly, they would probably be no different from him.

"Little Yu, you can only blame yourself. Now your younger brother is afraid of you," a beautiful and slightly gentle young girl by the side said with a smile.

"Second Sister, you're laughing at me. You were part of it back then too. It seems like you were the one who suggested it," Ye Lanyu said unhappily. She remembered that when she had her younger brother try on her clothes, her second sister had said that her younger brother was very cute and that if they dressed him up, they would have another sister.

"Did I?" Second Sister pretended not to know.

"Hmph!"

"Stop talking, everyone. Let's set off for the imperial palace," Ye Chengtian waved his hand, interrupting his children's conversation and announcing their departure.

Inside the carriage, while watching Tiger Girl and Long Anqi change the Thirteenth Young Master's clothes, Ye Lanyu again suggested he wear her evening gown. Of course, the result was that Long Anqi immediately hit her again.

The Thirteenth Young Master looked at Ye Lanyu pitifully from the side, touching the spot where Long Anqi had hit her. He felt quite bad for his sister.

Although Ye Lanyu often teased and tricked her younger brother, it was undeniable that she doted on her younger brother very much and wouldn't allow anyone to bully him.

"Brother, when we get back, why don't you wear it for me to see..."

Ye Lanyu tempted him.

"No!" The Thirteenth Young Master immediately ran to the other side, hiding beside Long Anqi, leaving Ye Lanyu to watch helplessly, not daring to make another move.
