He knew Dongfang Ming also took Liu Duo's pregnancy into account. She had not been doing well since his appearance, and staying at the noisy inn certainly would not help but would increase her melancholy instead.
Dongfang Ming had taken such proper care of them. Even if Ye Mo did not feel right in expressing his gratitude, he should still say it, shouldn't he?
"Let's not talk about the past! Come, I'll take you there." Dongfang Ming smiled faintly. He had never minded Ye Mo's attitude in the past.
He was not a petty person.
The carriage was already waiting for them. It sped towards the other Dongfang manor right after they got on.
After having some food for dinner, Liu Duo went to wash up and got ready for bed, because she did not want her husbands to worry about her. Yet, she could not fall asleep!
The men were in the outer room. They had just washed up.
"Yang, Liu, do rest up. You haven't been getting much rest these days," Ye Ling said to his brothers, both of whom were obviously tired but did not show it. It hurt him to see them like this.
Yet he could not take their place in the search for Mo.
Ye Liu responded, "Yes, we know. Don't worry, Ling. You keep Little Duo company. We don't want her making wild guesses again."
In the past few days, they had left the house early to meet up with the officers and continue their search for Ye Mo. In order not to disturb Liu Duo, Ye Ling had been staying with her.
"We should all sleep," Ye Mo announced in his deep voice.
The three of them were their wife's supporting pillars now. Nothing should happen to any of them, including physically breaking down!
They would rest when they should, otherwise, they would not have the energy to search for their brother.
After that, each of them returned to their respective rooms.
When Ye Ling entered the one he shared with Liu Duo, he saw that Liu Duo, as usual, was still awake. She was staring into space, her brows furrowed.
He did not have to guess. Surely, she was thinking of Mo!
"Duo Er, get some rest. It won't do for Mo to see how skinny you've become when he gets back." Ye Ling took off his outerwear, got on the bed and tapped her shoulder. "We'll find him! What we can do now is keep searching, and take care of ourselves. So that when Mo comes back, he won't feel bad for us."
Very patiently, Ye Ling regaled many comforting lines, most of which were repetitive, but he did not care.
Liu Duo faced him sideways and placed her hands around his waist as she responded in a muffled voice, "I know."
Then she closed her eyes and forced herself to sleep.
Ten minutes went past like that. When sleep was just about to overtake her, there came loud knocks from the main gate
When they heard that, Ye Yang and Ye Liu sprang up from their beds.
They were used to light sleep, and after what had happened, they slept even less. Any slight disruptions would wake them up.
That was because they assumed it might be Mo.
They quickly got something to wear and headed for the gate.
Dongfang Ming had originally arranged some servants for them, but the family did not like to be waited on, so the servants were dismissed.
"Who's there?" Before opening the gate, Ye Yang inquired.
It was in the middle of the night. It was common sense not to open doors to random strangers.
At the sound of Yang's voice, one he had not heard in a long time, Ye Mo could not help but get a little emotional.
He choked on his words, "Y-Yang, it's..."
He had barely said anything when Ye Yang instantly opened the gate!
How could he not recognize Mo's voice?
In front of them was their long-lost brother. Even though Ye Yang rarely showed his emotions, at that time his eyes had gotten slightly teary.
