Everyone has a breaking point, a line they simply cannot cross. In her case, it was a young man beyond rescue.
He might think extinguishing three incenses isn’t a big deal, but to her, it was unbearable!
Ye Xingguang bitterly said, “Ye Junqing, you need to put yourself into others’ shoes! Since I came into your home, I’ve been treating you so kindly, trying to protect your brother’s president campaign even by disgracing myself on social media to maintain our relationship. Even after you screamed at me, called me names numerous times, I swallowed my pride and took care of you. But you? All I did was burn a few papers for my friend in your house, and you lost your temper like that? Have you lost all humanity?”
After saying this, she forcefully pushed his hand away, moved her butt away, and pinched herself on the farthest spot from him, looking out the window.
Ye Junqing’s face darkened:”Burning paper for your friend? Do you think I don’t know that you were cursing me in secret, praying for my early death!”
Ye Xingguang turned her head and glared at him: “Are you having paranoid delusions? Why don’t you take your meds?”
After saying this, she reached for the car door: “Stop the car!”
In the instant when the car door was opened, the roaring cold wind blew in. She was sitting so close to the open car door, as if she would fall out of the car at any moment, and Ye Junqing’s temples throbbed uncontrollably.
He pulled her over forcefully, slammed the car door shut, and the cold harsh words hit her face: “Ye Xingguang, are you trying to provoke me?”
“Lord Qing, Miss Ye, please, let’s calm down and talk it over.”
Xiao Yun, who had been sitting in the back, finally spoke up.
Ye Junqing and Ye Xingguang both turned their heads and spat back.
Xiao Yun really wanted to shut up. But if he did, these two seemed likely to start a real fight.
After listening for half a day, Xiao Yun roughly understood the situation. Last night, Miss Ye had been paying respects to her friend at home. Lord Qing had mistaken it as her cursing him, therefore he destroyed the altar, leading to a bitter argument. Was Miss Ye kicked out by Lord Qing?
Xiao Yun, trying to calm things down, spoke up: “Miss Ye, may I ask what your friend’s name was?”
“Qin Junye, so what!” Ye Xingguang couldn’t take it anymore.
Xiao Yun continued, “Lord Qing, Miss Ye was merely paying respects to her friend, not cursing you. Her friend’s name was Qin Junye. Perhaps there has been a misunderstanding between you two. Why not take some time to cool down and clear the misunderstanding?”
There was a quiet moment. Ye Junqing didn’t say a word, his eyebrows tightly furrowed, his look was as if he wanted to swallow Ye Xingguang whole.
“Who is Qin Junye?” He snapped his words.
That name sounded like something made up on the spot.
Because, wasn’t Qin Junye just his name spelled backward?
Did she think he wouldn’t notice?
“I told you already, my friend!” Ye Xingguang took in Xiao Yun’s words, her tone not as harsh.
After all, she wasn’t cursing him. He was just being paranoid.
If it’s just a misunderstanding, she might give him one more chance to make amends!
Ye Junqing’s face still looked grim: “Is he dead? How did he die?”
Ye Xingguang’s lips thinned, tears swirling in her eyes, she bit back the pain, “None of your business!”
Fearing that they would start arguing again, Xiao Yun quickly interrupted: “Miss Ye, do you remember what year your friend passed away? I can look up the death records to confirm if it’s really Qin Junye, maybe it’s just a misunderstanding. Could you tell me the year of his death?”
Ye Xingguang said, “It was ten years ago, on this day.”
Xiao Yun immediately opened his notebook and said, “Lord Qing, please just cool down a bit, I’ll find out soon. Maybe you really misunderstood Miss Ye.”
