Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Xia Muqing was walking past the garden, she was pulled into it forcefully. As a result, she knocked into a tree.
It happened so suddenly that she was facing the tree when she came to her senses. The person was behind her. She asked in a panic, “Who are you?”
“Are you talking about me?”
When Xia Muqing heard this voice, she asked angrily, “Ye Qingxuan, what exactly are you trying to do?”
Ye Qingxuan turned her over and trapped her between the tree and his arms.
They were a little too intimate. Xia Muqing would probably be able to kiss him if she looked up. This made her shift uncomfortably and she said, “Let go of me quickly.”
Ye Qingxuan started to settle scores with her. “You called me here today to give me to Xia Churan?”
Xia Muqing said with a stoic expression, “Xia Churan caused me trouble because of you. Shouldn’t you be the one to resolve this matter?”
Ye Qingxuan’s expression was still ugly as he replied angrily, “You’re really… What do you want me to do with you?” In the end, he could only sigh.
Xia Muqing sneered and said, “Yeah, a woman like me is too stupid. I was fooled by you the moment I wasn’t paying attention.”
Ye Qingxuan’s body stiffened as he immediately understood what she meant. “You know everything?”
Xia Muqing asked, “What should I know? That you’re Jin Chao?”
Ye Qingxuan laughed bitterly, “How did you find out?”
Xia Muqing shoved him away and said, “You don’t have to care about that. I’m very angry anyway.”
Ye Qingxuan was no longer furious and he replied with a bitter expression, “I have my reasons too.”
Xia Muqing immediately exposed him. “I think you’re just fooling around with me.”
Jiang Yifan overheard their conversation. He had initially wanted to greet Xia Muqing when he saw her, but he hid when he saw Ye Qingxuan chasing after her. He didn’t expect to hear such a conversation.
Ye Qingxuan was Jin Chao!
So that was the reason why Xia Muqing’s attitude towards Ye Qingxuan had changed. He treated Jin Chao as his elder brother. Unexpectedly, his enemy had always been by his side. Back then, when he was grieving for his parents and elder brother, was he very proud of himself? It must have felt very good to watch someone else suffer.
Hatred filled his eyes and he clenched his fists tightly. Yesterday, Xia Muqing had said that she wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly. Now, it seemed like she was on Ye Qingxuan’s side. It turned out that the two people he trusted the most had betrayed him.
His thoughts became more and more extreme, and he couldn’t control the darkness in his heart.
The phoenix followed his scent and found him.
Others couldn’t understand what the phoenix was saying, but Xia Muqing could. Was Jiang Yifan here?
She looked around.
Jiang Yifan walked out from behind the bushes with a smile. “You’re all here? I thought I was the only one here.”
Ye Qingxuan asked warily, “We were talking so loudly just now, didn’t you hear us?”
Jiang Yifan smiled. “I accidentally fell asleep just now. I have always been a very heavy sleeper. If it weren’t for the little phoenix’s sudden cry in my ear, I wouldn’t have woken up.”
Xia Muqing was relieved to see that he didn’t have any hatred for Ye Qingxuan. It seemed that he had listened to her yesterday.
Ye Qingxuan frowned and was about to ask more when Xia Muqing pushed him. “Leave now.”
This was the first time Ye Qingxuan had been chased out by someone with such a disdainful tone and his face darkened. However, because it was Xia Muqing, he could only endure it. He tapped her forehead gently and said, “Wait until I deal with you in the future.”
Xia Muqing was also speechless. Jin Chao was a cold and aloof man.. How did his character change after he became Ye Qingxuan? If it wasn’t for the conclusive evidence, she really wouldn’t believe that they were the same person.
