Very quickly, the doctor had treated the wound on Ye Xiyuans arm. He prescribed some medicine, gave her some instructions to follow, then left.

Not long after the doctor left, Murong Yanshu came in.

Earlier, she had gone to investigate the accident that happened today.

Although she felt it was impossible for todays events to have been plotted by Ye Xiyuan, as the Nangong familys matriarch, she was in the habit of thoroughly investigating every matter so that she could feel at ease.

After looking into it, she discovered that what happened today was indeed an accident. The place where the chandelier broke should have been due to negligence on the servants part in maintaining it. They didnt notice the aging and it broke off. Ye Xiyuan saving her at that time was also accidental. There was no scheme involved.

Auntie.

Seeing Murong Yanshu enter, Ye Xiyuan immediately tried to stand up. However, because her arm was still wrapped in gauze, her movements werent very smooth and she almost fell over.

Be careful!

Nangong Xuyao stepped forward and swiftly supported Ye Xiyuan, preventing her from falling and causing a secondary injury.

Hurry and sit back down, said Murong Yanshu, stepping forward gently. Youre still injured! Dont move around randomly. Otherwise, the wound can reopen and that will be bad.

Auntie, Im fine. These are just superficial wounds, said Ye Xiyuan, sitting back down with a shy smile. You guys really dont need to be so nervous. Im totally fine.

Murong Yanshu sat down next to Ye Xiyuan and took her hand. Her tone was filled with grat.i.tude as she said, Xiyuan, I really must thank you today. If you hadnt saved me, I might be lying in a hospital right now.

Now that she thought about it, it had been extremely dangerous just then. The chandelier had fallen right above her head. If it had struck her directly, she would have been severely injured if not killed. So this time, Ye Xiyuan had truly saved her life.

Auntie, youre too polite, Ye Xiyuan said, shaking her head. l believe anyone would have done the same in that situation, not just standing by and watching.

Xiyuan, youre a good child, said Murong Yanshu, looking at Ye Xiyuan. First you saved Xuyao, and now youve saved me too. It seems you and our family are fated to be connected. So Auntie has an idea, but I dont know if youll agree.

Hearing Murong Yanshus words, Ye Xiyuan was overjoyed inside. She lowered her head, her cheeks flushed, and said softly, Auntie, please go ahead.

Although she felt it was a little impossible, she still held some expectations.

Xiyuan, Ive only ever given birth to Xuyao all these years. Actually, Ive always wanted a daughter, said Murong Yanshu, a trace of regret in her tone.

Unfortunately, I never got my wish. Seeing you today, Auntie really likes you. And you have such a deep affinity with our family. So Auntie wants to take you as my G.o.ddaughter. From now on, you and Xuyao will be siblings. Do you agree?

Although Ye Xiyuan had saved her today, and she had changed her opinion of the girl, knowing she was good, she could not allow her son to be with Ye Xiyuan.

Ye Xiyuans birth meant she could never become the Nangong familys matriarch. Even now that Ye Xiyuan was her savior, she held the same view. This was an unchangeable fact.

Upon hearing Murong Yanshus words, Ye Xiyuans complexion gradually paled. She had never imagined Murong Yanshu would make this decision. Making her Nangong Xuyaos sister would cut off any possibility of her marrying Nangong Xuyao forever, wouldnt it?

The favorability rating the system had determined was definitely accurate. So Murong Yanshu liked her, yet still didnt want her with Nangong Xuyao.

Mother, what are you saying? Nangong Xuyao obviously hadnt expected

Murong Yanshu to suddenly make this decision either. Xiyuan has her own parents.

Its not like Im s.n.a.t.c.hing their daughter away. I just want to take her as a G.o.ddaughter, said Murong Yanshu, holding Ye Xiyuans hand with a smile.. Xiyuan, tell me yourself, are you willing to become my G.o.ddaughter?
