In front of him was a girl with long, casually scattered hair. She was like a flower on an icy mountain top, but she was clothed in a red dress, adding a hint of warmth to her cold aura.
He faced her and gave a smile: “Moyu, let go find somewhere to sit.”
When Qiao Moyu saw Xing Yichen acting like this, she finally reacted. Did the other party finally realize the truth?
As expected, the male lead lead was impressive. She had only given him a little hint, yet he was able to investigate properly with high efficiency?
Qiao Moyu hooked her mouth into a sneer: “Are you inviting me out to let paparazzi take pictures, then having everyone on the internet curse me for being mistress?”
She shrugged her shoulders: “Sorry, there’s no way to accompany you!”
In the dim yellow light of the corridor, Xing Yichen stared quietly at the girl before him. He suddenly realized that it has been a long time since she had truly smiled at him.
On the day when she went out to record the program, she had smiled at the other guests, smiled at the director, and smiled at the camera. However, every time he met her, her eyes always stayed cold.
Some things, while in the past, he didn’t really think were that good. It was only after she left did he realize that there seemed to be an empty hole left behind.
He quietly sighed: “Moyu, I’m not planning to harm you. I only want to ask you about something this time.”
As he said that, he drew a bit closer to Qiao Moyu, his eyes fixedly staring at her: “When you were 13 years old, why did you get burned?”
He had really investigated a lot! Qiao Moyu raised her eyes, matching Xing Yichen’s gaze: “Since you came here to ask me, you must already have an answer in your heart. CEO Xing, when did you have such low confidence in your judgement? Is it because you have been tricked by certain people for so many years?”
Xing Yichen’s pupils contracted.
Since Qiao Ruohuan had inadvertently revealed some information yesterday, he asked special people to investigate it that very night.
Those people had gone to the village this morning and learned that Qiao Ruohuan, before the age of 14, had never even left the village before!
So, there way no way that the person who rescued him was Qiao Ruohuan. To figure out where she had gotten the bracelet, he was afraid that he would have to investigate the Qiao Family to get his answers.
Only, if it wasn’t Qiao Ruohuan that had rescued him, and at that time, Qiao Moyu went abroad to treat her burns, it could only mean one thing–
Qiao Moyu might the girl who had saved him at that time!
But why didn’t she ever bring up the topic these past few years?
At this moment, Qiao Moyu’s words were very correct. Because he had been fooled for so many years, he no longer had any confidence in his judgement.
The two people came to a deadlock, and the hallway was silent. Therefore, the lights in the hallway only stayed lit for a few more seconds before they automatically shut off.
Both people’s field of vision stayed dark until the elevator suddenly opened and a tall man walked out.
The sudden exposure to light caused both Qiao Moyu and Xing Yichen to have a sudden bout of uneasiness.
In their state of unease, both felt a not-quite-right aura, so they turned their heads.
At the elevator door, Ye Peicheng stood with one hand in his pocket, looking fixedly in their direction. The place where he was standing was only half-lit, causing people to feel a sense of pressure from him.
His line of sight locked on Xing Yichen. The two men’s gaze battled in the air, the victor unclear.
Qiao Moyu tightly closed her lips and thought that the current situation was completely out of control.
For her, the best thing would be to hug a watermelon and watch the male lead and the supporting male lead PK from the sidelines, occasionally cheering them on.
Yet now—-
She tried to reduce her presence and just as she was going to slink away, Ye Peicheng took the lead and opened his mouth: “CEO Xing, how come you have so much free time today that you came over to seek out my family’s Little Moyu?”
