Urban Seduction: Housewives Club-Chapter 345: The Feisty Third Sister

As they entered the dilapidated courtyard, Ye Fei saw the three triplet girls, as delicate as porcelain dolls, sitting together, fiddling with some cloth scraps and threads.

He realized they were doing embroidery work. In today’s world, where almost all manual labor had been replaced by machines, these handcrafted items were among the few that still required human touch.

The girls, being so sensible, must have been using this to earn some extra money for the household. Ye Fei was puzzled. If they had this kind of work, even if Gu Xuehan hadn’t stolen any money for a few days, they shouldn’t have been on the brink of starvation.

What Ye Fei didn’t know was that modern bosses were increasingly picky, and the triplets hadn’t received any systematic training.

As a result, a large portion of their embroidery failed to pass quality checks. Not only did they not earn money, but they also had to cover the cost of materials. To avoid disappointing her sisters, Gu Xuehan had never told them the truth.

A significant part of the money she stole went towards paying for these materials.

Although the triplets couldn’t earn money and even caused her some loss, Gu Xuehan was very happy. She knew her sisters genuinely wanted to help, and with that determination, they could get through any difficulty.

Upon seeing Ye Fei and Mu Ling enter, the three girls stopped their work and looked at them curiously. Their courtyard rarely saw visitors other than the landlord couple.

Since their legs had been injured, they seldom went out, so they were both curious and a bit scared of strangers.

Mu Ling, seeing the doll-like cuteness of the girls, was immediately fond of them. "Miss Gu, are these your three younger sisters? They’re so adorable," she said.

"Thank you," Gu Xuehan replied, though she wasn’t particularly warm. She got straight to the point. "What brings you here?"

"We’re planning to restructure our film company and are looking for young talents to join. With your background, Miss Gu, I believe you could achieve great things in this field," Mu Ling said directly, as Ye Fei had instructed. Ye Fei wanted Gu Xuehan to join his company.

To make a real difference in the current entertainment environment, relying solely on Xu Weier was too risky. Gu Xuehan, who had maintained her integrity despite her hardships, would likely be someone who could stick to principles, just like Xu Weier.

With her looks and figure, she could easily become a popular idol, even without much experience.

"I’m sorry, but I’m not interested," Gu Xuehan replied without hesitation, just as Ye Fei had expected.

"I may not have experienced the dark side of this industry, but what I’ve heard is enough. I don’t want to become that kind of person."

When Ye Fei had told Mu Ling that Gu Xuehan would refuse, Mu Ling had been skeptical.

After all, Gu Xuehan was just a seventeen-year-old girl. Even if she didn’t have star dreams, she shouldn’t turn down an opportunity to escape her current hardships.

But her rejection was firm.

Fortunately, Ye Fei had anticipated this and prepared a response for Mu Ling, who now turned to him for help, her face turning slightly red as she recalled the elevator incident.

Ye Fei gave Mu Ling a reassuring look but didn’t speak to Gu Xuehan.

Instead, he walked over to the triplets, squatted down, and asked one of them in a gentle voice, "Are you doing cross-stitch? That’s great. Can you tell me your name and which sister you are?" He had only seen them from a distance earlier and couldn’t tell them apart.

It had to be said that looks could play a significant role. Ye Fei’s handsome, almost feminine features, combined with his gentle smile, easily won over the girls, who had little to no social experience.

One of them replied in a sweet, crisp voice, "My name is Gu Xuexin. I’m the third sister. What’s your name, big brother?"

"My name is Ye Fei. You can call me Brother Ye Fei, or just Ye Fei," Ye Fei said, his smile becoming even warmer.

"Hello, Ye Fei!" the three girls chimed in unison. Perhaps they had a similar telepathic connection like Ye Fei and Ye Yunqi, choosing the more endearing name simultaneously.

"Can I take a look at your legs?" Ye Fei suddenly changed the subject, placing his hand on Gu Xuexin’s knee.

Gu Xuehan had been watching him closely since he started talking to her sisters. Seeing that the girls seemed to like him and had few friends anyway, she hadn’t intervened.

But she was shocked when Ye Fei suddenly started touching her sister, reminiscent of a creepy uncle checking someone’s body. She quickly walked over, slapped his hand away, and glared at him, demanding, "What are you doing?"

Though he had only touched her briefly, Ye Fei could tell that Gu Xuexin’s legs were perfectly fine; they were just blocked by some meridian seals. His initial guess had been correct.

He couldn’t help but feel even more curious.

Seeing Gu Xuehan’s wary look, he chuckled bitterly and said, "I was just checking your sister’s legs. There’s nothing seriously wrong with them. They can be easily cured."

"Really?" Gu Xuehan’s eyes lit up.

"But I’ve taken them to many hospitals, and they couldn’t figure out what was wrong. Do you really have a solution?" Ye Fei inwardly smirked.

Such a sophisticated technique would naturally go undetected by ordinary hospitals.

He nodded slightly but then shook his head.

"I can identify the problem, but I don’t have the solution. However, I know a very skilled doctor. She’s the chief physician of the Wang Hai City Military District, and she might be able to help."

In reality, he could easily remove the minor restrictions with a bit of internal energy, but since he wasn’t sure if there was some conspiracy behind all this, he decided to keep it to himself for now and instead pinned their hopes on Dongfang Ruolan.
