Stepping into the office, Wei Bei’s heart was pounding with fear.
He stamred out the details of Ye Jiuliang’s trip to S City, quickly lowering his head to reduce his presence.
The atmosphere was dead silent and oppressive.
"Master, do you want to check it out?" Wei Bei asked in a low voice.
After a long while, a cold voice replied, "No need."
He understood the young wolf’s personality well; if he kept investigating her behind her back, she would only drift further away from him.
...
The sunlight filtered through the thin clouds, warm and comforting.
On the racetrack, four motorcycles were competing in speed.
Lap after lap, their stunning maneuvers made onlookers anxious on their behalf.
"Damn it, Ajiu, do you have a death wish?" Ji Mingqian shouted at the motorcycle in the lead.
The bike leaned so low it brushed past his own motorcycle without slowing down.
This guy was genuinely risking his life.
Had the agreent to just have fun been eaten by a dog?
Ye Jiuliang raised his hand and flaunted arrogantly, "Catch up if you can."
Ji Mingqian gritted his teeth, "Just wait for ."
After several rounds, the sun was too scorching, and Ye Jiuliang retreated to the shade of the trees to cool off.
Half-squinting, he watched the two motorcycles on the track, their speed neck and neck.
He sipped his iced coffee as the phone next to him vibrated persistently.
He looked down to see an unmarked number, already etched in his mory without his realization.
After hesitating for a while, Ye Jiuliang shifted his gaze away, a foggy mist in the depths of his eyes concealing his emotions.
"Ajiu, how did you end up here?" Gu Xinuo ca looking for him, tossing his cap aside and sitting down beside him on the grass.
Ye Jiuliang raised an eyebrow, a roguish smile on his face, "It’s Aqian’s birthday, I can’t let him lose too badly."
Hearing this, Gu Xinuo chuckled, "If Aqian hears you say that, he’ll never let it go."
Ye Jiuliang leaned back, crossing his hands behind his head and laying down on the grass.
Suddenly, a shadow fell over him.
Ye Jiuliang opened his eyes, eting Gu Xinuo’s inquisitive gaze, "Even if you’ve missed after so long, you don’t have to stare at like that, do you?"
Gu Xinuo stroked his chin, his dark eyes gleaming with insightful brilliance, "Ajiu, you’re acting a little strange."
"Hmm?"
Gu Xinuo, "Did sothing happen?"
Ye Jiuliang shook his head.
"No, you’re definitely hiding sothing from . You’ve been distracted since the traffic jam earlier, and I’ve never seen you like this before." Gu Xinuo said with certainty.
After a mont’s contemplation, Ye Jiuliang’s arms slid down, blocking the glare of the sun.
He muttered, "Anuo, what exactly does it feel like to like soone?"
Before he finished speaking, Gu Xinuo was petrified.
What did Master Jiu just say?
The feeling of liking soone?
Is he teasing her?
"Ye Jiuliang, you, you, you..." Overwheld with surprise, she couldn’t even finish her sentence.
Gu Xinuo grabbed her hand and yanked her up.
"Ajiu, have you been cheating on behind my back?" His eyes were full of horror, with a hint of excitent.
Ye Jiuliang rolled her eyes at him, "What are you thinking about."
Gu Xinuo cald down a bit and looked at her incredulously, "Co clean, what have you been up to in Jing City these past days?"
Regretting the gossiping look, Ye Jiuliang instantly regretted asking that impulsive question just now.
She’d really been confused by Li Mochan’s tricks.
"Spill it, which guy had the guts to hit on you while I was away?" Gu Xinuo hooked her neck, pretending to be fierce.
"Don’t tell there’s none, haha, we’ve been sleeping in the sa bed since we were kids, you could fool Achen and the others, but not ."
Ye Jiuliang gave her a sidelong glance, "How can I talk with you choking ."
Gu Xinuo imdiately let go, her excited eyes urging her to speak.
"Anuo, if one day soone tells you they like you, but their identity is neither friend nor foe to our K organization, what would you do?"
Ignoring the rest, Gu Xinuo focused on one thing, "Ajiu, are you saying you’re into him?"
Her Jiuliang, wild and unruly by nature, had never shown such a sprouting of affection.
Ye Jiuliang’s mouth twitched, "Where did you hear that I’m into him?"
"Out with it, who is this person who’s neither a friend nor an enemy?" Gu Xinuo was very curious who could have possibly stirred Master Jiu’s heart.
Ye Jiuliang bowed her head, burying it in her knees, and muttered sothing indistinctly.
Her voice was so faint that Gu Xinuo began to doubt her own hearing.
"Who did you say?" Not having heard clearly, she asked again eagerly.
"Li Mochan."
This ti, her voice was a little clearer.
Gu Xinuo’s beautiful eyes widened in shock, and just as she was about to scream, a cold hand covered her mouth.
"Shh, stay calm," whispered Ye Jiuliang close to her ear.
Letting go, Gu Xinuo caught her breath, her eyes wide with astonishnt, "Who did you say? Say it again."
Ye Jiuliang covered her face, "I’m not telling."
"Li Mochan, you an Dark Hall’s Li Mochan?" Gu Xinuo felt as if her soul had been scooped out.
What the hell, when had her cabbage been stolen away?
Ye Jiuliang nodded slightly.
"How did you flirt with him?" Gu Xinuo asked without thinking.
Ye Jiuliang, "..."
Suddenly, the man’s deep voice popped into her mind, "You flirted with first, and now you’re saying it’s impossible."
"Little wolf cub, you can’t be so domineering."
Damn it, why did Li Mochan’s words always co to mind?
She pursed her lips, "Gu Xinuo, whose side are you on, what do you an ’how did I flirt with him’?"
Gu Xinuo blinked innocently, "Although I definitely stand by your side, woman’s intuition tells it was definitely you who flirted with him first."
Whether the cabbage took the initiative or the pig started first was still up for debate.
Ye Jiuliang laughed in exasperation at the heartless wretch.
Gu Xinuo looked down at the person lying on the ground playing dead, "So, what’s the situation now?"
"I’ve been trying to avoid him as much as possible, and I won’t be staying in Jing City for long. I’ll be going back to Country Y sooner or later," Ye Jiuliang said indifferently.
Teasing her, Gu Xinuo said, "I heard Li Mochan is incredibly good-looking, you really have no feelings for him?"
"Blue face brings disaster, besides I stole his goods, if he finds out, tsk tsk..." Ye Jiuliang rolled over, comfortably propping up her legs.
