Chapter 566: Chapter 566: How Dare You Defend Yourself! _1
Tang Zhou walked in, seeing Xia Ye Zhao instructing Qing Ye to dispose of the vomit, and immediately covered his nose: “Xia Ye Zhao, why aren’t you doing it? Aren’t you supposed to take care of Ye Xingguang? This kind of task is perfect for you.”
However, before he could finish his sentence, Qing Ye had already taken the basin to the bathroom, leaving Tang Zhou dumbfounded: “…….”
Qing Ye, why are you so obedient? How could such a dirty and tiring job be left to you?
Ye Junqing was afraid that the smell from the vomit in the basin would be unbearable for Ye Xingguang, who was already feeling sick. So, without arguing with Xia Ye Zhao, he washed the basin, brought it back, and put it under the bed in case she vomited again.
As Xia Ye Zhao occupied the position at the head of the bed, Ye Junqing moved to the other side. However, just as his gaze landed on the girl’s pale face, Ye Xingguang turned away from him again.
“I didn’t lie to you.”
Ye Xingguang covered her ears. She didn’t want to listen. Her stomach hurt, her head hurt, and her entire body felt uncomfortable. The worst pain was in her heart.
Ye Junqing gently moved her hand away from her ear and softly explained, “I did pick up Yan Xi from the airport the night before last, but the message telling you that I was working late definitely wasn’t from me. I have nothing to hide about going to get Yan Xi, why would I lie to you?”
Right, if he was just picking up an old friend and there was nothing to hide, why would he lie to her?
Was she really so unreasonable?
Ye Junqing felt frustrated: “I gave my phone to Fu Zhuo. He told you I was working late, and even deleted the messages afterward. Even the message you sent me the day before yesterday asking if I would come home for dinner was answered by him. He deleted that message afterwards too. I just found out why you are angry when I checked the conversation history. Don’t be angry anymore. There is nothing inappropriate between Yan Xi and me. Ask your brother if you don’t believe me. Yan Xi does have someone she likes, but it’s definitely not me.”
Ye Junqing’s gaze landed on Xia Ye Zhao, hoping he could say something to prove his innocence.
Ye Xingguang looked at Xia Ye Zhao, but he simply replied: “I don’t know about your affairs.”
Ye Junqing was furious: “You don’t know? You don’t know about my transparent relationship with Yan Xi even though we’ve been friends for so many years? Xia Ye Zhao, can you stop making things worse? Don’t you know who Yan Xi likes?”
Xia Ye Zhao had figured out what was going on.
But even though he knew that there was nothing going on between Ye Junqing and Yan Xi, Xia Ye Zhao didn’t feel like clarifying at the moment.
This guy has a bad temper, he kicked the door open just earlier. If he explained things now, would he, as the older brother, get kicked out next?
His sister was so sick. Xia Ye Zhao just wanted to stay by her side and make up for neglecting her all these years.
Xia Ye Zhao sneered: “How would I know? You had time to party with Yan Xi, yet you left your sister alone and lied to her. Then when things got exposed, you blamed Fu Zhuo. Your contingency plan is just like how temp workers are always to blame when things go wrong.”
Ye Junqing’s face turned ashen: “Xia Ye Zhao, I don’t owe you anything!”
There was no debt, but now, Xia Ye Zhao just wanted to take care of his sister alone. He didn’t want anyone to compete with him.
Xia Ye Zhao said: “Stepping back a little, even if it was Fu Zhuo who sent the messages, isn’t it true that you went to pick up Yan Xi in the middle of the night and dined with her? If you hadn’t been dining with Yan Xi, she wouldn’t have gone to eat hot pot, and wouldn’t be this sick now! You still have the audacity to excuse yourself!”
