Translator: 549690339
Lost in thought, Ye Junqing squinted and said, “Is he the one you said you had feelings for?”
“What are you talking about?”
The boy and I are simply close friends bound by life and death!
“No?” Ye Junqing seemed relieved.
Otherwise, no matter how capable he was, he could not make her forget someone who was already gone. Yet, a living rival was a different matter.
Ye Xingguang did not want to deal with him. Probably tired from the day’s turmoil, she felt both physically and mentally exhausted and closed her eyes.
And so, the two of them avoided each other during the journey.
The car smoothly made its way back to the Ye’s residence, finally stopping at the bustling entrance. Someone respectfully opened the car door for her, but Ye Xingguang remained in the car, unwilling to get out.
However, her stomach shamelessly let out a growling sound.
Having only eaten breakfast and skipping both lunch and dinner today, coupled with the whole afternoon’s ordeal, she was extremely hungry.
Upon hearing her stomach growl, Ye Junqing’s annoyance was replaced by a grin.
Ye Xingguang, finding this humiliating, shot him a glare. “No laughing,” she declared.
“There’s plenty of delicious food in the mansion. Various seafood, cake, beverages, pastries…” Seeing her unwillingness to leave the car, Ye Junqing listed some of her favorite dishes to tempt her.
“Xingguang.” Xiao Mi Hu ran out of the mansion upon hearing the commotion, with a piece of cake in his hand.
Swallowing her saliva, Ye Xingguang stayed mute.
Ye Junqing made way for Xiao Mi Hu, who yanked Xingguang out of the car and exclaimed, “Where did you go? I can’t have fun without you. Heard you went to the Xia’s family to cause a commotion. How awesome is that?”
Confronted by Xiao Mi Hu, Ye Xingguang suppressed her fury and got out of the car.
She treated Ye Junqing like air and only played with Xiao Mi Hu.
Entering the house, she asked, “How did you know?”
Xiao Mi Hu replied, “How else would I know? Everyone who attended the party tonight knows. That assistant of Xia Yanyan’s, Ye Li, is awful. She loudly claimed here that you vented the rage from being kicked out by Ye Junqing on Xia Yanyan, accusing you of causing a scene at the Xia’s, and even claimed you nearly killed Xia Yanyan.”
Ye Xingguang frowned. She didn’t know about this.
While eating his cake angrily, Xiao Mi Hu revealed, “I then slapped Ye Li twice, driving her away!”
Xiao Mi Hu snorted, “If it weren’t for my bodyguard, I would’ve slapped her again. She dares to fan the flames here, thinking I won’t catch her stirring trouble because I’m aloof?”
Xiao Mi Hu responded, “What are you talking about? We are the duo fighting against the powerful.”
After saying that, Xiao Mi Hu leaned in and whispered, “But there’s some chatter at the banquet. Many people who heard Ye Li’s words take them as truth. They’re saying behind your back that you wooed Ye Junqing, but he rejected you. Now that the online hype about you two has died down, Ye Junqing has dropped you. They say you’re upset about it and went to Xia’s family to confront Xia Yanyan, making a spectacle of yourself. I was furious when I heard it. How could Ye Junqing kick you out? Is it really because he still has feelings for Xia Yanyan?”
Ye Xingguang gritted her teeth, without clarifying, she only said, “No, I went to Xia’s family to settle another score. I didn’t expect Xia Yanyan to pull such a stunt using her assistant. Good, very good!”
