Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
There was someone in the washroom. Bo Cixue opened the door and walked out.
She looked around the corridor but did not see Ye Jie.
Bo Cixue was a little disappointed and went into the washroom.
After drinking a little, her face was slightly red. She reached for the tap and splashed cold water on her face.
She only walked out after she had mostly calmed down.
She had just stepped out when the back of her neck was pinched lightly.
Bo Cixue was shocked and she cried out softly, turning to look at the person who was pinching her.
Before she could see who it was, her arm was grabbed and she was dragged into the male washroom.
In just ten seconds, she was pushed against the door. The man put his hands on both sides of her body and looked down at her with his dark eyes.
She was familiar and unfamiliar with the faint smell of tobacco and the cool masculine scent.
After all, it had been a while since they had been so close.
Bo Cixue slowly raised her thick and long eyelashes and looked at the man close to her.
The man’s cold and handsome face was fierce and cold. His scarlet lips were pursed tightly under his tall nose. Even if he did not say a word, the aura he exuded could freeze people.
Bo Cixue met his dark eyes and the hands hanging by her sides clenched into fists unconsciously, a layer of sweat appearing on her palms. “You scared me to death just now.”
She did not dare to speak too loudly, afraid that someone would come in and hear her.
He looked down at her, as if he wanted to see her deep in his heart. “What did Ah Zuo call you to say?”
Hearing him mention this, Bo Cixue immediately felt a little guilty. However, at the thought that Ah Zuo would not tell him what she had said, she braced herself and replied, “Nothing much. Do I have to report everything to you?”
He narrowed his dark eyes. “Whether I’m in a good mood or not has nothing to do with you, hm?”
Bo Cixue was speechless. Why did Ah Zuo really report it?
Bo Cixue’s fingers grabbed her palm and her eyes sparkled. She avoided him. “It’s Brother Zhou’s birthday. It’s not good for us to be out for too long. Let go of me and I’ll go over first.”
“Are you really not going to make up with me?”
Bo Cixue’s long eyelashes fluttered and she thought of the doc.u.ment she saw in the psychiatrist clinic. She felt a lump in her throat and her eyes turned red.
Ye Jie saw that she was about to cry before he said anything, which was completely different from when he played billiards with Luo Zhou in the room earlier. He furrowed his eyebrows. “Will you not be happy being with me?”
The moment he finished speaking, she jumped into his arms. Her actions were big and fierce. He did not expect her to do this and his tall body even took a step back before he stabilized himself.
Looking at the girl buried in his arms, the usually commanding man could not read her thoughts.
He raised his hand and patted the top of her head lightly. “Cixue?”
After a while, Bo Cixue looked up and glared at him with red eyes. “Who said I don’t want to make up? Why would you think so?”
He pursed his lips, his cold expression unreadable. “You were only smiling at Luo Zhou tonight.”
Bo Cixue sniffed. “I wonder who was having a cold expression. I didn’t even dare to laugh.”
“I heard the recording of your call with Ah Zuo and thought…”
“That I really didn’t care about you?” Bo Cixue stood on tiptoes and kissed his handsome chin. “My mom was at the door at that time and I said that on purpose. If I didn’t care, I wouldn’t have come since I knew you would come to Brother Zhou’s birthday party tonight.”
“So you’re not angry because of Ye Yiren anymore?”
Bo Cixue pouted. “Of course I’m still angry. How are you going to make it up to me… Mmh.”
Her unfinished words were blocked by his lips.
…
Coming out of the washroom, Bo Cixue was held by the man. When they were about to reach the room, he let go of her. “I’ll wait for you in the car. Go in and get your bag and come and find me.”
“Are you leaving? Isn’t it too fast?” Bo Cixue did not want him to get the reputation of choosing women over friends.
“You don’t want to be alone with me?” He asked softly.
Bo Cixue blushed and hummed obediently.
Entering the room, Bo Cixue said to Luo Zhou, “Brother Zhou, I’m sorry but I have to leave first. Let’s meet again next time.”
“Alright, it’s alright. Do you need me to send a driver to send you back?”
Bo Cixue waved her hand. “No, no.”
Tang Wu put her arm around Bo Cixue’s shoulders and walked to the door, asking softly, “The Crown Prince is missing too. Tell me quickly, are the two of you…”
“Yes, we want to be alone.”
Tang Wu looked at Bo Cixue, who was smiling brightly again, and pinched her small waist lightly. “Do you want to get into a shotgun marriage?”
“No, my mom will break my legs if she finds out.”
Tang Wu said, “Baby Bo, aren’t you a little too obedient?”
“You have to be more obedient in some aspects!”
…
Bo Cixue found Ye Jie’s car in the underground parking lot.
He had not drunk and drove the car himself. When Bo Cixue got into the car, he was on the phone.
“Let’s meet again. There’s an urgent matter in the office and I have to go back to settle it.”
After Bo Cixue fastened her seatbelt, he started the engine and drove out of the clubhouse.
Bo Cixue did not ask where he was taking her. She glanced at him from time to time. He was really flawless, not to mention his side profile. His face was angular and handsome, his nose tall and stylish, and his lips were thick and moderately red.
When she looked over again, he freed a hand from the steering wheel and rubbed her head. “Is there something on my face?”
“No, I just feel that I haven’t looked at you like this for a long time. You seem to have become more handsome.”
“Are you biased just because you love me?”
“Of course not. Don’t you know that you’re the most handsome prince in the hearts of young girls worldwide?”
“You’re the only one in my eyes”
Bo Cixue glared at him with a red face.
“Cixue, take out a packet of cigarettes from the storage box.”
Bo Cixue furrowed her eyebrows. “Have you been smoking often recently?”
He hummed in agreement.
Bo Cixue looked down, opened the storage box, and took out a cigarette box.
“Take it out for me.”
Bo Cixue wanted to persuade him to smoke less, but she thought that it did not seem good to discipline him like a mother when they had just made up.
Ye Jie looked at Bo Cixue’s scrunched face, looking like she wanted to say something but was suppressing it. He chuckled. “Open it.”
Bo Cixue opened the cigarette box and was about to smoke, but found that there were no cigarettes inside. Instead…
Bo Cixue poured out the thing in the cigarette box and saw a dazzling ruby necklace. She was dumbfounded. “This…”
“It’s for you.” He looked at her, a faint smile in his dark eyes.
Bo Cixue was stunned.
