Fang Yao declined and handed back the ring to Ye Xingbei: "Aunt, this is too valuable, I can't accept it."
"Oh my, dear captain, when did you become so fussy?" Qiao Zui slapped his hand back, "We're all family, no need to be so polite! Hurry up! With so many guests tonight, it's the perfect time for you to shine, you'll miss the opportunity if you don't seize it now!"
He raised his hand and pushed Fang Yao out by the shoulder.
Fang Yao turned back to look at Ye Xingbei.
Ye Xingbei smiled gently at him, "Ah Zui is right, we're all family, why so polite?"
Looking at Ye Xingbei's bright and warm smile, a warm feeling spread through Fang Yao's heart.
Indeed.
Family.
No need for politeness?
During this time, he's been eating and living with the Gu Family.
His only relative, his best brothers, they're all with the Gu Family.
He's long considered himself a part of the Gu Family.
Everyone in the Gu Family is someone he's willing to protect with his life.
