Hesitating for a mont, Jiang Moxi finally spoke: "I don’t want to say."
She didn’t want to lie anymore.
Because one lie requires countless other lies to support it, it’s just too exhausting.
"Is it that you don’t want to say, or you can’t say?"
Fu Youhan suddenly turned around, reached out to seize Jiang Moxi’s chin, forcing Jiang Moxi to look into his eyes.
His anger, for the first ti, was so explicitly shown.
Only because he knew better than anyone that Jiang Moxi didn’t like owing people favors.
Previously, because he had helped Jiang Moxi several tis, Jiang Moxi would rather pay back with her body than owe him favors.
So he couldn’t help thinking if Jiang Moxi would also repay Si Lin’s favors in the sa way.
Jiang Moxi didn’t like Fu Youhan being so aggressive, so she couldn’t help but struggle out of his grasp, coldly reminding him: "Haven’t we agreed that it’s a mutually beneficial relationship and that we won’t interfere with each other?"
"Yes, we won’t interfere. I almost forgot..." Fu Youhan suddenly laughed, but at the sa ti, no trace of emotion remained in his dark pupils.
This was what they had agreed upon from the beginning.
But why did it sound so harsh to the ears now?
Seeing the evident change in Fu Youhan’s expression, Jiang Moxi also realized that her words were sowhat hurtful.
She began to consider whether she should take the initiative to apologize to Fu Youhan.
She even hesitated whether she should confess to Fu Youhan that she was the Justice Hacker.
After all, Fu Youhan always protected her fully, ignoring the gazes of those around him.
She even thought, since Fu Youhan cared so much about her, maybe he would keep her identity a secret as well.
But before she could figure out how to explain all this, Chi Jing’s car suddenly stopped.
Jiang Moxi ca back to her senses and realized they had already arrived at Night Color.
Later on, Jiang Moxi could only enter her usual work mode.
When she was carrying the drinks and entered the ninth-floor private room, Fu Youhan and Ye Chen were already there, casually chatting.
By then, Jiang Moxi was still hesitating about how to talk about her owing Si Lin.
But just then, she suddenly heard Ye Chen say: "Thank goodness our Xiao Moxi made you escape the fate of a forced marriage. Why are you still looking so gloomy?"
Ye Chen was only trying to create an opportunity for conversation between Fu Youhan and Jiang Moxi because he noticed the tense atmosphere.
Unexpectedly, Fu Youhan glanced coldly at Jiang Moxi and followed up on Ye Chen’s words: "Indeed, if it weren’t for her, I still wouldn’t know how to shake off that annoying leech."
At that mont, Jiang Moxi felt her once-warm heart chill because of the tis Fu Youhan had defended her in front of others. It instantly cooled down.
It turns out that to Fu Youhan, at best, she was just a shield against unwanted suitors.
Fundantally, her role was no different from what she was to Si Lin...
Suddenly, she felt absurd about her previous thought of confessing everything about her deal with Si Lin.
After that, Jiang Moxi quickly served the drinks to Fu Youhan and Ye Chen and then left the private room.
Ye Chen, watching Jiang Moxi’s retreating figure, frowned: "What’s wrong? Haven’t you two co to an agreent yet?"
"We don’t connect on a deeper level, does it matter whether we reach an agreent?" Fu Youhan said with a sneer, his lips curving.
Watching soone possibly having feelings but still putting up a tough front, Ye Chen could only sarcastically say: "Admirable, admirable, a relationship of convenience, carefree and at ease!"
Then, he asked the manager why Yu Dingding hadn’t co over yet.
The manager replied, "Dingding is entertaining guests in another private room, she will be over soon."
Hearing this, Ye Chen frowned: "Are there that many guests asking for her services again tonight?"
Yu Dingding, being the top courtesan of Night Color, and also bearing the label of being exclusively favored by Ye Chen, required guests to reach the top VIP client threshold of Night Color to see her.
The threshold for top VIP custors requires a minimum expenditure of over ten million at Night Color.
Yet, even so, this does not stop the curiosity of those who want to catch a glimpse of the true face of Yu Dingding.
Because they are all curious, aside from her beauty, what special talents Yu Dingding possesses to keep the flirtatious Young Master Ye exclusively devoted to her!
"Hmm, tonight about a dozen custors have specifically requested to see Dingding. I heard that one of them even ca from Emperor City," the manager replied.
Hearing this, Ye Chen felt an inexplicable sense of discomfort.
Jiang Moxi simply took a part-ti job as a waitress at Night Color, and Old Madam Si as well as other mbers of the Si Family all thought she was dirty, looking at her with bias and insulting her with sharp words.
Then what about Yu Dingding?
Being the Oiran of Night Color, how would others view her?
Although Ye Chen previously used all kinds of thods to coerce and entice Yu Dingding to beco the Oiran of Night Color, indeed with the intent of ruining her reputation so that she’d never be able to marry Mo Yifeng,
when he truly realizes all of this might actually ruin Yu Dingding, he feels damnably anxious and uneasy.
Fortunately, not long after the manager responded, Yu Dingding appeared.
It’s just that upon seeing him, Yu Dingding was as impatient as ever: "Why are you in such a rush for to co over? Can’t you just hang out with An Yang?"
"How can An Yang even compare to my precious you? Plus, we haven’t seen each other for almost ten hours, don’t you miss at all?"
Last night, Ye Chen had too much to drink and stubbornly insisted that Yu Dingding take him ho.
Later on, he shalessly hugged Yu Dingding and refused to let go, insisting she stay the night.
Thus, Yu Dingding stayed over at his apartnt last night and they parted ways only at noon, which indeed makes it ten hours since they last saw each other.
After finishing his words, Ye Chen reached out to embrace Yu Dingding, but she slapped his hand away.
"Don’t talk about ten hours, even ten years without seeing you wouldn’t make miss you."
This clear stance of extre repulsion toward Ye Chen caused his passion to cool down significantly.
The smile on his face also faded significantly: "You wouldn’t miss even after ten years? Baby, you don’t have any feelings for at all, do you?"
In the past, Yu Dingding would soften her tone a bit upon seeing how displeased Ye Chen was, not truly angering the man.
But today, Yu Dingding was clearly not in a good mood either, so as if giving up on saving herself, she spoke bluntly: "My brain isn’t wrapped, how could I possibly develop feelings for soone who has pushed into a living hell?"
Among the guests entertained tonight was Gu Dong, soone Yu Dingding knew from before.
Gu Dong had once pursued Yu Dingding, but she ultimately chose Mo Yifeng.
For n, what they cannot have is always the hardest to forget.
So when Gu Dong heard that Yu Dingding was working in the entertainnt venues of Yan City, he made a special trip.
He spent over ten million to beco a top VIP of Night Color, gaining the opportunity to request Yu Dingding’s company.
After eting, Gu Dong offered to buy out Yu Dingding’s contract so she could leave with him.
Yu Dingding turned down Gu Dong and therefore angered him.
Gu Dong asked her, "What’s so good about this place? Do you really like Ye Chen so much that you’re willing to linger in these pleasure grounds rather than co with ?"
At that mont, Yu Dingding recalled the previous night at Ye Chen’s apartnt, knowing full well that Ye Chen wasn’t drunk yet letting him make a scene.
Even upon waking up and seeing Ye Chen’s face, she had the thought that it wouldn’t be too bad if ti stopped right there.
So after so contemplation, Yu Dingding figured that she probably hadn’t fallen in love with Ye Chen, at most she had developed a liking for him.
But this situation definitely could not be allowed to develop any further; she must draw a clear line with Ye Chen!
Otherwise, she would lose even the sole authority over her heart...
However, her actions also thoroughly infuriated Ye Chen.
At this mont, Ye Chen’s handso face seed to be covered with a layer of hostility.
"Yu Dingding, you really know how to act! Now get lost to the fourth floor, I’ll let you taste what a true living hell is!"
