The sixty-first melon: What melon? Sixty-one bites...

"Let me tell you, if I find out you're lying to me, I'll tell Mom right now that you're dating!" Ye Rou threatened.

Upon hearing this, Ye Shuang's expression changed, and she instinctively cried out, "No!"

She looked at her older sister pleadingly, grabbed her hand and shook it, saying, "Sister, please, don't tell Mom about this. If she finds out, she'll kill me."

Ye Rou dragged a chair over and sat down next to her, saying, "Whether I tell Mom about this depends on your attitude. Tell me honestly, who is the person you're dating?"

Ye Shuang was helpless, but facing her older sister's watchful gaze, she could only honestly answer, "The person I'm dating is named Han Heng. He's not from our school; he's a celebrity..."

"..."

As Ye Shuang recounted her story, she seemed to recall her past with Han Heng, and her expression grew increasingly sweet. In contrast, Ye Rou's expression became increasingly unpleasant.

Ye Rou guessed that Ye Shuang was in a relationship, but she never expected that Ye Shuang's boyfriend was a man almost ten years older than her, and also a celebrity.

"You and he didn't do anything you shouldn't have, did you?" she immediately asked Ye Shuang.

Upon hearing this, Ye Shuang's face flushed red instantly, and she said, "Sister, what nonsense are you talking about? I, I'm not an adult yet..."

Ye Rou:... You still know you're underage?

She closed her eyes, trying to calm herself down. Suddenly, something occurred to her, and she abruptly looked at Ye Shuang, asking, "Did Ye Mo already know about this?"

Ye Shuang nodded. "Sister Momo does know about this..."

Seeing her older sister's pale face, she suddenly realized something and quickly said, "Sister, I asked Sister Momo not to tell you about this. I was afraid you would be angry, so please don't be angry with Sister Momo."

Ye Rou took a breath and said, "I'm not angry with her. If I'm angry, it's with you... Ye Shuang, what are you thinking? You're a student, how can you be with a man ten years older than you? Are you crazy?"

She took a deep breath and gritted her teeth, saying, "I don't think this man named Han Heng is any good either!"

Hearing her words, Ye Shuang pursed her lips, disliking hearing her older sister say such things, and muttered, "Sister, don't say that. You don't know what kind of person Han Heng is. He's a very good person, very good to me, and genuinely likes me!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Rou's displeasure deepened, and she retorted, "What do you know? If he were a good person, would he be dating you? I think you're bewitched!"

Ye Rou felt that what she said was reasonable and well-founded. After all, if this Han Heng was really a good person, how could he get involved with Ye Shuang, a minor who was still in her second year of high school?

"You have to break up with him!" she said immediately, her tone unwavering.

Upon hearing this, Ye Shuang immediately became anxious and cried out, "Sister, you can't do this! Han Heng and I are truly in love!"

Ye Rou scoffed, "What true love? My dear sister, he's obviously just playing you!"

"Sister, what you said was really awful. I don't like what you said." Ye Shuang suddenly stood up, pushed her sister out of her room, and said unhappily, "Go away, I'm not..."

I want to hear you say these things!

Ye Rou turned her head. "Wait, Ye Shuang..."

Bang!

The door slammed shut in front of her. Ye Rou's eyes widened, she took a deep breath, and after several seconds, she exhaled, unable to hold back her anger, "What did I say wrong? Why are you throwing a tantrum at me!"

She suddenly remembered Ye Mo, who already knew about this, and anger welled up inside her. She turned around and headed towards Ye Mo's courtyard, her aura menacing, clearly there to cause trouble.

Chapter 61, the sixty-first melon: What kind of melon is it? It's meant to be eaten in sixty-one bites...

Ye Rou came to cause trouble for Ye Mo with great momentum, but Ye Mo had already learned about it from 888. So when Ye Rou arrived, she saw Ye Mo looking calm and composed, as if he had known she would come all along.

"You're here because of Ye Shuang, right?" Before Ye Rou could make a move, Ye Mo spoke first, then pointed to the stool next to him and said in a very natural tone, "Sit down, sit down and we can talk slowly."

Ye Rou: "..."

Ye Mo's move caught Ye Rou off guard. She looked confused, and the words she had been preparing for a long time suddenly stuck in her throat. Her movements also slowed down a bit.

But because of that slight delay, the initiative in the conversation between the two instantly fell to Ye Mo. Ye Rou couldn't maintain her momentum any longer, and after a few seconds of silence, she could only obediently sit down on the stool next to Ye Mo.

[Damn it, I lost!] She was annoyed and resentful that Ye Mo had seized the initiative in the very first move, causing her to lose half the battle.

However, even if she didn't gain the upper hand, she absolutely couldn't lose in terms of momentum.

Thinking this, Ye Rou rallied her spirits, raised her head high, and looked at Ye Mo with great determination.

"You understand..."

Before she could speak, Ye Mo poured her a cup of tea, placed it in front of her, and said, "Here, have some tea."

Upon hearing this, Ye Rou replied without hesitation, "Thank you." She even gave Ye Mo a polite nod.

When Ye Rou realized what she had done. "..."

Ahhh!

She screamed inwardly in despair.

That damn slow reflexes!

Looking at the annoyed and distorted expression on her face, Ye Mo couldn't help but chuckle. She tried hard to recall something unpleasant, otherwise she was afraid she would burst out laughing.

"I know you're here because of Ye Shuang. Calm down, I'll explain it to you slowly," she said with a smile, her tone gentle.

The tense atmosphere between the two could no longer be maintained. Ye Rou, in a fit of desperation, asked, "You know perfectly well that the guy Ye Shuang is dating isn't a good person, so why are you still helping Ye Shuang keep it a secret?"

Ye Rou questioned, her anger rising at the mention of the matter, her tone becoming indignant again. "Have you considered what would happen if something were to happen to Ye Shuang? That man clearly isn't a good person!"

Hearing her question, Ye Mo didn't answer immediately. Instead, he said, "You discussed this with Ye Shuang before you came, right? Let me think, didn't you already ask her to break up with that man immediately?"

"Let me guess Ye Shuang's reaction. She probably didn't agree to your request and kicked you out, right?" She smiled at Ye Rou. "Am I right?"

Ye Rou: "..."

"She's still young," she said sullenly, "And doesn't know that I'm doing this for her own good. When she's older, she'll understand my good intentions."

Ye Mo shook his head and said, "At her age, she believes in true love and is willing to defy the whole world for love. The more you disapprove of her relationship, the more resistant she will be, and the more she will believe that she and the other person are truly in love... Therefore, you can't be too forceful in this matter. You have to let her back down on her own and be willing to break up with that man."

Ye Rou was agitated. "If you won't let me object, are you expecting me to watch her and that guy live happily ever after? That bastard?"

Ye Mo: "I didn't say that. I just said that you can't be so forceful. We need to take things slowly."

Slow and steady wins the race?

Ye Rou looked at Ye Mo suspiciously, then leaned closer and asked, "Have you thought of a plan?"

At this moment, she had forgotten that she had originally come to cause trouble for Ye Mo; now she just wanted Ye Mo to tell her what she thought.
