Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gao Qiao felt that he’d never meet another person as amazing as Ye Yao again. Moreover, her ability was too fun! Gao Qiao was a person who was extremely curious about new things, especially now that he had met someone like Ye Yao, who had a playful personality and fun skills. He was too excited!
Ye Yao spread her hands. “Then what should I do? Huo Buyu is very strict with me. I’m also very afraid of him. I don’t know much about my ability either. They say practice makes perfect. Since you want to be friends with me and are curious about my ability, why don’t you be my lab rat?”
Gao Qiao slammed the table. “Don’t use me as a lab rat. Take it that I deeply disagree with Huo Buyu’s act of trying to restrict you! Don’t worry, with me around, I’ll definitely give you room to unleash your skills.”
Ye Yao extended a hand to Gao Qiao and agreed, “Alright, then we’re partners.”
Gao Qiao shook her hand. “Happy collaboration!”
If Huo Buyu knew that Gao Qiao had secretly made such an agreement with Ye Yao, he would probably be furious.
Suddenly, the click of a camera shutter was heard. Holding her phone, Qin Jiao walked up to Ye Yao and said mockingly, “Ye Yao, you’re actually so intimate with another man behind Huo Buyu’s back. If Huo Buyu finds out, will he dump you?”
Ye Yao rolled her eyes and waved at Gao Qiao. “Extend both your hands.”
Gao Qiao immediately extended his hands. Ye Yao reached out and placed her hands on Gao Qiao’s. Then, she said to Qin Jiao, “Come, take out your phone and take a photo of us. Then, go to Huo Buyu and make a complaint.” She felt that Qin Jiao was crazy. Why would she lose the right to shake hands with another man just because she was Huo Buyu’s girlfriend? Besides, there was nothing to hide between her and Gao Jiao. What was wrong with just shaking hands?
Gao Qiao also looked at Qin Jiao and said coldly, “Qin Jiao, do you think that there will be trouble if I shake hands with Ye Yao, or do you think that Huo Buyu is so petty that his woman can’t even touch another man’s hand? What kind of society is this now? When you lay naked in bed with another man previously, Huo Buyu didn’t say anything, right?”
Ye Yao widened her eyes as if she had heard some hot gossip. “What? Qin Jiao lay naked in bed with another man?” This was too impressive. She was ashamed of being so far behind.
Humiliated by Gao Qiao and Ye Yao, Qin Jiao flew into a rage. She shouted at Gao Qiao, “When did I lie naked in bed with another man? I was…”
“What was it then?” Gao Qiao asked.
Ye Yao chipped in, “I didn’t expect you to be so bold, Qin Jiao. No wonder Huo
Buyu didn’t want you anymore. You’re too frivolous, two-timing him.”
Qin Jiao shrieked and raised her hand to slap Ye Yao. Ye Yao said slowly, “Your hand is cramping.” Then, as Qin Jiao raised her hand, she suddenly felt the tendons in her hand tighten. It was so painful that she couldn’t move.
Ye Yao covered her mouth and looked at Qin Jiao in disbelief. “Aiyo, don’t tell me your hand is really cramping? Tsk tsk, I think you like to slap people too much. See, now your tendons aren’t functioning.”
Qin Jiao was curled in a corner, sucking in bouts of cold air. About five minutes later, her cramps slowly eased. She glared at Ye Yao fiercely. “Ye Yao, you’re such a jinx! Nothing good happens every time I meet you! Jinx! You’re so unlucky. Hurry up and leave Huo Buyu. Don’t be a liability to him!”
Ye Yao raised an eyebrow. “I won’t. I’ll anger you to death.” Get her to leave Huo Buyu and give up her seat to Qin Jiao? Dream on!
At this point, Ye Yao’s phone rang. It was Huo Buyu. She took out her phone. “I’m at the milk tea shop at the school gate.”
Huo Buyu’s voice was calm. “I’ll be right there.” When he made the call, Huo Buyu was already at the school gate, so he came to the milk tea shop after a while. When Qin Jiao saw Huo Buyu, she immediately went over to grab his arm. “Huo Buyu, Ye Yao bullied me. She scolded me and hurt my hand.”
Ye Yao was shocked. Was this woman shameless? How could she lie in front of the person involved? Moreover, the person she was making the complaint to was her boyfriend? Did Qin Jiao take her for dead?
Huo Buyu stepped aside before Qin Jiao could touch him. He warned her with a cold expression, “Although Ye Yao is mischievous, she wouldn��t go around bullying others. Even if she did hurt you, it would’ve been because of something you did to make her angry.”
Qin Jiao’s body swayed as if she couldn’t accept Huo Buyu’s words. She looked at the man hesitantly.. “Huo Buyu, you…”
