Chapter 19: Chapter 19: Young Master, Jiang Family is Here
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
If she were the real younger sister of Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli, then everything would be fine.
But she is not.
She has received too much affection from Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli, which has aroused the jealousy and insecurity of Shi Qianling and Leng Peini towards her.
They are afraid that her relationship with Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli might suddenly shift from being siblings to lovers.
They are afraid that she will usurp their positions.
Therefore, when she wondered who had replaced her backup chocolate, the names of these two women were the first to enter her mind.
Of course, this is merely her speculation.
Regardless of whether there’s evidence or not, these family secrets are hers to keep and she would never tell any outsiders.
So, she feigned ignorance when Gu Junzhu asked, and remained silent.
Gu Junzhu curved the corners of his lips, not asking again and looked out the car window. “We’ve arrived.”
He looked back at Ye Xingbei, glancing meaningfully around her chest. “Do you want to fix your clothes?”
Ye Xingbei followed his gaze, her face immediately turning red. She covered her chest vehemently and buttoned up her clothes, then fiercely strangled Gu Junzhu’s neck. “You big lech!”
She accused him of undoing her buttons when she was not fully conscious, leaving her bunnies half-exposed while they were talking.
Disgraceful is an understatement!
Her face was so flushed that she wished there was a hole she could crawl into.
Gu Junzhu suppressed a chuckle, pulled off her hand, and said earnestly, “Don’t blame me, your buttons were not fastened securely. When I was performing CPR, they just popped open while I was pressing on your chest. I swear I did not undo them!”
Ye Xingbei:
Pressed on… on my chest?
Isn’t the chest right where the bunnies are?
He not only saw, but also touched!
Filled with deep shame and indignation, Ye Xingbei lunged at him, pressing him onto the car’s back seat and squeezing his neck. “I’ll strangle you, you big lech!”
Gu Junzhu caught her wrists, struggling to hold back his laughter. Putting on a serious face, he said, “Director Ye, whether it was the kiss or the chest compression, everything was part of the CPR to save your life! As a good socialist youth, I do good deeds without expecting anything in return. No gratitude is needed, but you shouldn’t retaliate against me, should you?”
Ye Xingbei:
Just having recovered from low blood sugar, her limbs were still unsteady. Even while choking Gu Junzhu’s neck, she lacked strength.
Hearing Gu Junzhu’s irritatingly self-righteous statement, a deep sense of helplessness arose from within her.
She let go of Gu Junzhu’s neck, covering her face in despair. She began to reflect deeply. Did she just make the biggest mistake of her life?
Pretending to be husband and wife with Gu Junzhu?
She must have been out of her mind to agree to Gu Junzhu’s proposal!
Regardless of whether they’re pretending or not, expecting to maintain a Dutch treat while they’re pretending to be husband and wife was nothing short of daydreaming.
While she was busy thinking of how to persuade Gu Junzhu to dissolve their agreement, the car stopped. Gu Junzhu’s personal bodyguard and driver, Gu Zhou, looked back at Gu Junzhu. “Young Master, we’ve arrived at the Jiang family’s residence.”
Ye Xingbei immediately sat up straight. All her nerves became tense.
The Jiang family!
The place that had brought her the greatest shame and pain is here!
