Chapter 2018: Moving
Bo Cixue covered her burning face and shook her head in rejection. “I can’t call you that again.”
Ye Jie looked at her with his dark eyes. “I can tell. Come closer.”
Bo Cixue pressed her face against his obediently.
She was hot.
He was cool.
He could lower her temperature.
…
He carried her down the mountain and she said nothing.
He had not slept at all last night and had worked all day. Even a man made of iron could not take it.
They went back for dinner and Bo Cixue received a call from Yan Hua.
When Yan Hua called, Ye Jie was beside her and she could not get up and leave.
“Cixue, did you break up with Cheng Yan?”
Bo Cixue was stunned. She did not expect her mother to ask such an explosive question.
She glanced at the man sitting beside her and secretly put the phone on her left side to her right ear. She lowered her voice and said to the person on the other end of the line, “Mom, I was never with Chief Cheng. I’ll explain to you when I’m back.”
“Didn’t you two meet several times?” Yan Hua raised her voice in surprise when she heard Bo Cixue say that she had never been with Cheng Yan.
Bo Cixue looked back at the man beside her. He had already put down his chopsticks and was looking at her with narrowed eyes.
Bo Cixue’s scalp turned numb.
“It’s not what you think. Anyway, I’ll explain to you when I come back.”
Without waiting for Yan Hua to say anything, Bo Cixue hung up.
Putting her phone into her pocket, she slowly turned around and looked at the man with deep and narrow eyes. “Chief Cheng and I…”
Ye Jie said elegantly, “I know.”
Bo Cixue widened her eyes. “What do you know?”
“I received photos of your date.”
Bo Cixue was stunned.
“W-Who sent you that?” Her survival instincts were strong. “It wasn’t not a date, just a meal.”
Ye Jie did not tell her that it was sent by Tang Mo and his gaze on her darkened. “Auntie Yan seems to like Chief Cheng very much.”
Bo Cixue dragged the chair and came close to him, rubbing her forehead on his arm. “My mom likes him, but it’s not like I like him. I did want to try it out at first, but after interacting with him a few times, I found that he’s not attractive. I’m just ordinary friends with Chief Cheng now.”
Ye Jie touched the top of Bo Cixue’s head. “Little girl, you’ve grown up. It’s normal for people to like you.”
Bo Cixue looked up at him with her doe eyes. She did not tie her hair today and her long hair fell, making her face look thin and small. “Aren’t you jealous?”
Ye Jie held her hand. “You belong to me now.”
He would not tell her that he had had insomnia that night when he received the photo of her and Cheng Yan having dinner.
It was his first time experiencing the taste of loss.
…
When Bo Cixue lay on the bed at night, there was still a sweet joy on her face.
Today felt like a roller coaster ride, her mood rising and falling.
It turned out that falling in love really made people become silly.
Tang Wu called Bo Cixue in her best friends’ chat. “Someone is in love so she doesn’t interact with her best friends before going to bed at night. Hoes over bros!”
Bo Cixue lay on the bed and replied, “You have the cheek to say that? You saw Brother Lan at the hot spring villa that day and left Ah Xun and me.”
Tang Wu: “I don’t care, I don’t care. I want to see the photo of the little fool who managed to win her crush over. She must look wildly in love.”
Bo Cixue leaned against the bed, took a selfie and sent it over.
Tang Wu: “Not bad. Your face is red and your eyes are moist.”
Bo Cixue: “Scram.”
Nan Xun: “Do we have to ask the Crown Prince for a red packet? I’ve been abandoned just like that.”
Bo Cixue smiled. She took a screenshot and sent it to Ye Jie’s WeChat, adding, “She asked you to send her a red packet!”
Soon, Bo Cixue’s phone rang.
The man immediately transferred ten thousand dollars to her.
Bo Cixue was speechless. She had nothing to say about a rich person who was not in need of money.
Bo Cixue sent the red packet to the group, put down her phone, and got off the bed. She planned to go to the room next door and send a big red packet to her best friends personally to thank them. When she opened the door, she saw a tall man leaning against the wall with one leg bent and a hand playing with his phone. He turned back when he heard the door open.
Their eyes met and they laughed unconsciously.
Bo Cixue was slightly embarrassed and brushed her long hair away. “Why are you here?”
“Good night.”
Bo Cixue’s long eyelashes fluttered and she hummed softly.
He came up to her and stretched out his arm. “Give me a hug.”
Bo Cixue jumped into his arms and pressed her face against his handsome chest, her heart feeling sweet. “Thank you, Mr Ye, for the big red packet.”
…
Bo Cixue fell asleep with a smile.
When she was with the person she liked, a gaze and a hug could make her heart beat faster.
She slept well and woke up naturally the next day.
There were chirping sounds of birds outside. She went to the window and pushed it open, taking in a deep breath of the fresh air outside.
Unfortunately, this beautiful feeling did not last for a few seconds when she suddenly heard a soft woman’s voice.
“Crown Prince, I really didn’t ask anyone to cause trouble for Miss Bo at Chen Xin’s wedding. I don’t know how I offended Miss Bo to make her hate me so much. I… No matter what, I gave you the way to save Miss Bo in the forest. Seeing that we’re friends, can you stop misunderstanding me?”
Bo Cixue narrowed her bright eyes.
Was she hallucinating?
Chu Li was here?!
Bo Cixue hurriedly came out of the house, so she did not hear what Ye Jie said to Chu Li. When Bo Cixue came out, Chu Li’s expression was not very good.
Seeing Bo Cixue coming to the yard, Chu Li’s expression changed.
She came all the way here to find the Crown Prince to secretly move him.
After all, any hard-hearted person would be moved if a weak woman was willing to do this.
But why was Bo Cixue here?
Chu Li glanced at Bo Cixue. Bo Cixue was wearing a vest and shorts and had not washed up. Her eyes were sleepy and her long hair fell on her shoulders. Her black hair and fair skin were unusually eye-catching.
It seemed like she had slept here last night.
Ye Jie’s handsome face darkened when he saw Bo Cixue. He went forward, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her back into the house.
Bo Cixue went to the room and shook off Ye Jie’s hand. “Are you feeling guilty?”
Ye Jie narrowed his dark eyes. “Guilty?”
“Then why did you pull me in in such a hurry?” Bo Cixue thought of how he had been alone with Chu Li in the forest and she felt anxious. “No wonder Chu Li doesn’t like Lan Yue. She must have fallen for you in the forest.”
Ye Jie looked like he did not know what she was talking about and looked at her with dark eyes. “The inspection team is coming over for a meeting later. Why did you run out dressed like this?”
Bo Cixue only realized afterwards that his expression darkened not because of guilt, but because of her outfit.
Bo Cixue looked at his serious expression and had a bad thought. Her slender and fair arm wrapped around his neck. “Do you mean that I can only wear it for you to see?”
Looking at the girl with watery eyes and a pure and bad smile, Ye Jie pinched her nose. “Cixue, you’re being playful again.”
“If you don’t tell me, I’ll wear hot pants later. Anyway, I brought them.”
The man slapped her butt.
He said nothing and looked down at her, his eyes dark.
Bo Cixue could not resist his gaze. She raised her hands in surrender. “Alright, alright. I know even if you don’t say it. You just want me to wear it for you.”
However, at the thought of Chu Li’s outfit today, Bo Cixue pouted and glanced at the man. “Don’t you think Chu Li looks very good in it today? She even did her hair. I’ve been on the road for the past few days and I don’t think I’m as exquisite as her.”
She swore that if he dared to say that Chu Li was not bad today, she would kill him with her bitter eyes!
Ye Jie did not understand what she was thinking and said lightly, “What she wears has nothing to do with me.”
Pfft…
Bo Cixue laughed.
Chu Li would probably be furious if she heard this!
“However, it’s really touching for her to come all the way here just for you.” Bo Cixue thought of Chu Li’s thoughts and she could not help but grit her teeth. If she had not made up her mind and Chu Li had taken advantage of that, something might have happened if she wandered around Ye Jie every day in the name of repaying her sins.
“There’s an elder in the team who came to inspect this time. She’s a relative of the Chu family. Chu Li must have contacted that elder. Chu Li came in the name of the elder and I can’t chase her back immediately.” Ye Jie pursed his lips slightly. “But I will let her leave willingly.”
Bo Cixue looked at the man’s cold and emotionless eyes and could not help but shiver. She silently lit a candle for Chu Li.
…
Bo Cixue was leaving here to go back to work tomorrow. Ye Jie let her have free time in the morning and took time to accompany her in the afternoon.
While Bo Cixue was having breakfast, Ye Jie and the inspection team had already left the house.
Chu Li came to have breakfast with Bo Cixue.
Chu Li was wearing a dress from the international fashion week. The jewelry on her neck and ears were dazzling and she had exquisite makeup on her face.
Compared to Chu Li’s meticulous dressing, Bo Cixue looked much more casual. There were many mosquitoes in the mountain and she wore a handsome and clean sportswear. Her long hair was tied into a high ponytail, revealing her forehead and fair face.
Chu Li looked at Bo Cixue. She did not know if she was hallucinating, but she found that when she saw Bo Cixue this time, she seemed to be prettier than before. Her face was also red without makeup and her complexion was so good that it made people envious.
Chu Li said coldly, her tone laced with disdain, “Miss Bo, I didn’t expect you to come here. Aren’t you tired after chasing him for so many years?”
