Chapter 1092: He Was Angry (1) Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Annie stared blankly. There was astonishment on her little face. Her eyes blinked as she wondered if she were hallucinating.
How could Ye Sijue be here?
However, no matter how many times she blinked her eyes, the person before her was clearly Ye Sijue.
And wasn"t his female companion the mean Secretary Tian?
What Annie had not expected was that Ye Sijue actually brought the secretary along on him on his business trip here in America.
"Annie? What"s the matter?" Chris asked upon noticing that she was acting oddly.
He was about look where she was looking when Annie grabbed him and they retreated a few steps.
"Nothing." Annie"s voice was trembling slightly as she said this.
At this moment, her thoughts were chaotic. She didn"t know if she was happy or angry.
Ever since she returned to America, she couldn"t help but think about Ye Sijue everyday. She wanted to see him. She wanted to hear his voice. She wanted to touch him.
However, when she saw him so unexpectedly, she was nonplussed. She didn"t know if she should meet him.
Just then, a few wealthy missies walked out from the banquet hall, and when they saw Annie, they called out excitedly, "Annie! You"re here?"
Hearing that, Ye Sijue, who was walking to a corner, stopped in his tracks and turned to look in the direction the sound came from.
However, he only saw a few well-dressed wealthy women gathered in a group. Mo Xiaomeng was nowhere to be seen.
In that moment, disappointment came over his elegant face.
It wasn"t her.
"Young Master Ye?" Tian Yunxin tugged at his arm. Seeing something off in his expression, her womanly instinct was telling her that he was thinking of some other woman.
The banquet tonight was not the usual kind. The people attending all had a certain level of status and influence in America, so it had gathered lots of wealthy missies from big families.
Although Tian Yunxin believed that she was very attractive, she had hardly any status to speak of. Compared with these wealthy missies, she was an individual with no power. She had no chance of winning.
No. I mustn"t let Young Master Ye be stolen from me.
Tian Yunxin schemed in her mind.
Walking out of sight of those woman, Ye Sijue then tried to free Tian Yunxin"s hand from his arm.
Although Tian Yunxin was very reluctant to let go, she knew that she couldn"t be too clingy. In order to capture, one must let loose. Thus, she let go of Ye Sijue"s hand magnanimously.
"Young Master Ye, what do you want to drink? I"ll go get it," she asked in a gentle voice.
"No need." Ye Sijue replied indifferently. He was still looking in the same direction.
Tian Yunxin noticed that there were several wealthy young women gathered there. All of them were very young, pretty, and cla.s.sy.
Could Young Master Ye really have taken a liking to one of them?
It seemed like it.
Otherwise, a man wouldn"t be staring so steadily at a woman.
Tian Yunxin was jealous. Just who was this girl?
In the courtyard.
Upon hearing someone calling her name, Annie was like a startled bird. She took Chris and they ran quickly to hide in a secluded location.
Chris looked at her funnily and curiously. "This is the first time I"ve seen you run so fast. What"s wrong?"
