<h4>Chapter 391: Ring Around Your Lover, Circle Around Your Heart</h4>


    A charming smile reappeared on Liu Duo’s face. Even a stoic man like Ye Yang could be quite endearing.


    She guessed that a knife so small was the right fit for cutting fruit and peeling away the skin.


    It was always a fuss having to use a kitchen knife every time she wanted to eat a piece of fruit, “Thanks, Yang. This is very convenient.”


    It would also give a good scare to anyone who nned to mess with her!


    Ye Yang’s previously cold ambience also took a turn when he saw her smile again.


    Ye Mo noticed that Liu Duo liked Ye Yang’s and Ye Ling’s presents, so he chipped in to ask, “My wife, don’t you want to know why I gave you earrings?”


    Liu Duo looked at him, “Why?”


    She was curious. Whatreason would there be, other than wanting her to wear them and look pretty doing so?


    “Ring around your lover! It means your husband, me, has to stay by your side always, circling around you. So you have to wear them everyday!” He looked at her cooly. Love and admiration spread across his face.


    Liu Duo, mesmerized by his charming eyes, couldn’t help but blush.


    Ring around your lover? Oh, exactly what a schr would say. A wonderful interpretation for giving earrings! Looks like I learned something today.


    Ye Liu, legs crossed, arched his brows, “Geez, count on a schrly man to set the standard! Mo, do enlighten me. What’s the meaning behind the bangles I selected for her then?”


    Everyone else directed their gaze at Ye Mo, awaiting his response curiously.


    Ye Mo stared at her wrists for a while as he contemted, before finally speaking, “Circle around your heart! It means you’re the only one Liu treasures, and he’ll keep you in his heart forever, never letting go.”


    Ye Liu liked what he heard as he apuded, “Yes, exactly! Little Duo, you have to wear them every day.”


    He may have been sneaky and quick-witted, but he was not cultured to know these things. He had bought jade bangles for her, only because he thought she’d look nice wearing them.


    Liu Duo’s mouth twitched at the answer. Basically, the two of them wanted to stick around her, never letting go?


    What a messed up interpretation!


    She may have thought that, but Liu Duo still dangled the earrings by her ears, hung the sachet around her waist, and held the small knife in her hand.


    She was about to go downstairs and cut some fruit.


    The bangles were already on her wrist, so she gave them a spin, “Let’s go down then. Any time now, Aunt Ye will be wondering where we have gone. It’s rude to leave guests on their own.”


    Ye Yang and Ye Ling heeded her as they got up, ready to go downstairs.


    However, Ye Liu stalled them, “Yang, Ling, wait a moment,” and then he grinned mischievously at Liu Duo, “Little Duo, all four of us have given you presents, shouldn’t we get something in return?”


    Like a reward?


    She looked at his annoying smirk, “Like what?”


    It was her birthday, so what else did she need to give?


    Ye Yang and Ye Ling looked at him too. What did he mean by ‘something in return’? It was not even their birthdays yet.


    Ye Mo knew where Ye Liu was going with this, so he added, “My wife, you should give us each a kiss in return, as a token of gratitude!”


    Alright, Liu Duo admitted she had judged them too quickly.


    These two, asking for rewards on her birthday? And a kiss, of all things?


    Ye Liu gave Ye Mo a firm thumbs up when Liu Duo wasn’t looking. Ye Mohad said exactly what was on his mind!


    Their thoughts were exactly alike!


    Ye Mo raised his chin, as though to say, When the wife receives gifts from the husband, she should show some form of gratitude! If it were someone else, a verbal ‘thank you’ would suffice.
