Chapter 904: 894 Weapon (8) One more Chapter

Ye Yanyu stared blankly at the mechanism in Ye Shaohua’s hand, unable to utter a single word.

She felt a chill in her heart. Could it be...that father had already imparted everything he knew to her?

Ye Shaohua glanced at the expression on Ye Yanyu’s face, shook her head slightly, and without waiting for Ye Yanyu’s reaction, she walked out and left with Shen’s father.

The entire workshop was silent. After a long time, the people from the Ministry of War stared at the empty wall where the mechanism lock, which no one had been able to solve for five years, had been memorized and taken down.

And there stood Ye Yanyu with her mouth agape, looking somewhat ridiculous.

She had been laughing just before, but now she couldn’t muster a smile at all.

Forging a weapon required the person to look for steel and forge it due to the nature of the process, which was not suited for Ye Yanyu because of her constitution.

Ye’s father was often away and had basically taught Ye Yanyu nothing.

Only those who had truly accepted the Ye Family’s legacy could understand this workshop, Ye Yanyu had been relying on the little she had learned from books and the scant theories she had overheard from Ye’s father over the years.

These were the Ye Family’s secrets, unknown to the outside world, and it was with this knowledge that Ye Yanyu gradually found her footing in Imperial City.

She had originally thought that her father was dead, and Ye Shaohua who was wandering outside might not even have enough to eat, let alone the energy to learn these things?

But now, she was truly stunned, her fingers digging painfully into her palms, and not just her—Cheng Yan was also shocked.

He had never known that Ye Shaohua could master such exquisite mechanisms.

Cheng Yan had always been arrogant, regarding few people with true importance, and Ye Yanyu was one of them, but now he was full of thoughts.

**

"Shaohua, what is that in your hand?" the people waiting outside were unclear about what was happening inside, their minds still on Ye Yanyu’s reaction just now.

At this moment, Ye Shaohua had a rough idea in her heart, her sister was clearly a delicate little white flower.

The place was off-limits and Shen’s father didn’t linger, merely said something to Cheng Yan from a distance before leaving with Ye Shaohua.

Shen Jiran naturally was waiting for Ye Yanyu and didn’t leave with the two men.

"It’s just a small mechanism; I’ll take it back and study it," Ye Shaohua said, suddenly remembering something, "Uncle, I need to go out for a few days. The weapon I’m forging lacks important material."

Initially, Shen’s father disagreed, but then he remembered how Ye’s father had also often been away, and Yaoyue followed Ye’s father out, so he eventually fell silent. "You may go, but I will send two people with you."

Shen’s father didn’t trust the people from Wang Residence to accompany Ye Shaohua.

He had talked to Cheng Yan several times these past few days, but for some reason, Cheng Yan just wouldn’t agree to give Ye Shaohua freedom.

Ye Shaohua knew that Shen’s father would not rest easy unless he sent people to follow her, and going out alone would inevitably lead to criticism, so she agreed.

After Shen’s father returned, a long time passed without Ye Yanyu and Shen Jiran showing up—he wasn’t in a hurry, only telling Shen’s wife about the day’s events with Cheng Yan and Ye Yanyu, which didn’t leave a good expression on her face.

However, she was not someone who judged without understanding the situation; she would wait for Ye Yanyu to return and then subtly inquire.

"Auntie, you know I didn’t have my parents around when I was young. Now, I only have my sister as my kin, so naturally, I must find ways to grow closer to her." However, before Shen’s wife could say anything, Ye Yanyu began to speak, her eyes red, her head bowed, almost choking on her words.

Remembering how little Shen Yaoyue and her husband had intervened in the upbringing of the two and seeing Ye Yanyu cry so pitifully, Shen’s parents set aside their concerns and comforted her before having someone send her back.

The squeaky wheel gets the grease, and Ye Yanyu knew this well.

Seeing Ye Yanyu like this, the goodwill Shen Jiran had begun to feel for Ye Shaohua these past few days, because she resembled his aunt, vanished completely. "Father, what did Ye Shaohua say to you when she left today?"

"She didn’t say much," Shen’s father glanced at Shen Jiran, knowing he was biased against Ye Shaohua.

Shen Jiran sneered. He didn’t believe the other party had said nothing but didn’t dare to contradict his father, so he made a remark before heading back to the study room.

Watching his son’s retreating figure, Shen’s father suddenly remembered what Ye Shaohua had mentioned that afternoon, "Wait, Jiran, there is something."

He was referring to finding someone to accompany Ye Shaohua to get materials.

Shen’s father didn’t trust anyone else with this task, and since Shen Jiran had learned martial arts from people in Jianghu and was quite skilled, he was very confident in entrusting Ye Shaohua to him.

The death of his sister and brother-in-law had been a great shock to him, and this time he was determined to not let anything happen to Ye Shaohua.

Especially since he understood Ye Shaohua’s personality by now. She was very much like her father, and Shen Jiran seemed to have some misunderstandings about Ye Shaohua. Ye’s father hoped that their relationship might become more amicable during the journey.

"Wait, you want me to accompany her to the mountain to get stone materials?" Shen Jiran looked at Ye’s father, his expression one of utter astonishment, as if to say, "What are you talking about?" "I won’t go."

At first, Shen’s wife didn’t understand the situation, but after hearing from Shen’s father, she immediately stood up, even more worried for Ye Shaohua’s safety than Shen’s father was, "You’ll have to go whether you like it or not. Jiran, when you had chickenpox as a child and your father wasn’t at home, it was your aunt who saved your life without disdain. Now that you’re asked to look after your aunt’s daughter, are you also unwilling?"

"I understand," Shen Jiran seemed to relax at the mention of Shen Yaoyue. "That’s why I place Yanyu’s sister’s name above my own."

This was what Shen’s wife found most incomprehensible. "Yanyu is your aunt’s daughter, so is Shaohua. Shaohua is also well-behaved and even resembles your aunt. Such a good child—why don’t you seem to like her?"

As Shen’s wife couldn’t help but smile when talking about Ye Shaohua, Shen Jiran shook his head and finally couldn’t hold back any longer, "Father, Mother, don’t be deceived by her. Why did your uncle and aunt take her out with them when we were young? Also, when she first came to Imperial City, didn’t she intentionally or unintentionally get involved with King Na? She’s extremely manipulative..."
