Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

The three brothers had their eyes glued on Ye Mo. This wasn’t about bullying Liu Duo, but rather that his lying problem had gotten serious! They never liked liars.

“Mo, we know you only went to school for a while, but you’re a smart student. You should know that lying is the biggest mistake of all!” Ye Yang’s voice deepened. It was soothing to the ears, but to Ye Mo, it was the sound of the devil.

Ye Yang, who was normally a man of few words, could say so much with so few words. Needless to say, he must be furious. Ye Mo regretted his mistake and thought, Oh dear, oh dear, I’m dead meat! How could I forget to dab some ink?

“Ling, take Little Duo outside,” Ye Yang gently pushed her away. She had been clinging to his arm.

With that, Liu Duo stuck her tongue out at Ye Mo, as though wishing him well. She thought to herself, Oh dear, Yang seems to be on the verge of lashing out! So cold. It’s frightening.

Obediently, Ye Ling held onto her small hand and brought her outside. When Ye Liu went to close the door, he smirked at them, “Ling, bring her for a walk outside, will you? No rush. Don’t come back too quickly, alright?”

After that, he closed the door and locked it.

And so, Liu Duo could only silently pray for Ye Mo, hoping that the others wouldn’t beat him too badly.

Along the way, Liu Duo asked Ye Ling, “Ling, why didn’t you speak for Mo? He really didn’t bully me.”

“Lying is a serious offence! Regardless of the issue, lying to your family is unforgivable, and not worthy of assistance!” He said seriously. This was a matter of principle. Nothing more, nothing less!

“Oh,” Liu Duo nodded. Ye Ling was so gentle and very defensive when it came to his brothers. And yet he could be ruthless when it came to this. Ye Mo had truly gotten himself into a bad situation!

On the other hand, after they shut the door, Ye Liu and Ye Yang stood side-by-side, looking at Ye Mo. One was cackling, the other was cold. Ye Mo felt he had gotten himself trapped between ice and fire.

“Yang, Liu, I only wanted to tell Liu Duo that I like her, but I feared that she would run away before I had the chance, so I locked the door. You know she’s biased towards me, so I had to do that. I swear, I didn’t bully her!”

Ye Mo spilled out every ounce of honesty he had to declare his innocence.

By the end of it, Ye Yang remained emotionless and speechless, while Ye Liu briefly raised his brows, grinning but not saying anything either.

“Also, about lying... I only did it because I was worried you’d think I was bullying her,” Ye Mo also understood the seriousness of the problem. He was not at all boastful, as he used to be.

In front of his two brothers, he wouldn’t dare to boast. After all, they were his elders! It was true that he was in the wrong for lying.

“Although you have admitted your mistake, you have to accept punishment and never repeat what you did!” Ye Yang felt gratified by Ye Mo’s conscious confession. At least he wasn’t one of those people who stubbornly refused to apologize.

When Liu Duo and Ye Ling returned, they only saw Ye Yang weaving a bamboo mat in the yard. Ye Liu and Ye Mo were nowhere to be found.

Ye Ling went straight into the house, while Liu Duo went to crouch beside Ye Yang, “Yang, you didn’t beat Little Mo into a pulp, did you?”

“Nope,” Ye Yang glanced at her. How could they? Their own brother had made a mistake. They had let him off with a light punishment and a grave warning.

Liu Duo was relieved to hear that. She had been afraid they would break him. She had seen Ye Liu beat up others and how cruel he could get, as well as the time he hit Ye Mo. Ye Yang was sturdy and had greater strength. His punches might be even heavier than Ye Liu’s.
