Lawson Perry, clad in dark pajamas, stood on the balcony of his high-rise luxury apartment, looking in the direction of the exploding gas station. Against the evening sky, he could see the fire still fiercely burning, showing no signs of extinguishing.
“Find out who’s fanning the flames and stirring the public opinion. I, Lawson Perry, do not resort to such despicable tactics, even if I want to win. If someone wants to throw dirt on me, let’s just wait and see!”
With that, Lawson Perry extinguished the cigarette in his hand and asked in a stern voice, “What’s Ye Shiting’s current situation?”
“The Ye’s family has blocked the news. We don’t know Ye Shiting’s condition yet. According to an eyewitness, Ye Shiting was rescued from the blast by a girl. Here’s the video, it seems like the girl is Ye Xingguang.”
The scene of Ye Xingguang carrying Ye Shiting out of the fires was photographed by a reporter at the scene.
This photo has already been posted online, causing a commotion, which shocked many people. This led to comments like these:
“Apologies to the goddess, I will follow this couple for three seconds.”
“No offense, I just love this couple.” noveldrama
“I also wish to save my ideal presidential candidate from danger, but sadly I don’t have the strength. Fire goddess, please accept my admiration. Starting from today, I am your devoted fan. I want to write fan fiction about you and the strongest presidential candidate. Don’t try to stop me. PS: This is fiction-based, not related to reality.”
Ye Junqing, who had already returned to the Ye’s residence, saw these comments and looked quite unpleasant.
Are netizens today going crazy? It was evident from this photo that it’s because of him that little mermaid is involved!
Ye Xingguang took a shower, dried her hair, and came downstairs to find Ye Junqing sitting in the living room with a gloomy expression.
Ye Xingguang pursed her lips, wondering what was wrong with this guy. His gaze landed on her, making her feel a little uneasy.
After thinking for a bit, she glanced at the door and said, “Hasn’t Brother Owl returned yet? All my skincare products are in my suitcase. After showering, I don’t even have anything to moisturize my face. When is he coming back? Could you give him a call and ask?”
However, a certain someone kept his face stiff, holding his phone, not knowing what he was looking at. The exceptional coldness in his eyes seemed to be piercing through his phone, killing everyone who had provoked him at the other end.
Ye Xingguang thought it best to make herself scarce: “I’m going upstairs first. When he brings my suitcase back, ask him to send it directly upstairs, okay?”
The man leaned back on the sofa, emanating an aura of coldness. He called her over: “Come here.”
“You need anything?”
Ye Junqing said, “Use your ‘Little Mermaid’ account and post a selfie now.”
He needed to let everyone know that Little Mermaid dashed into the fiery scene because Ye Shiting was his brother, Ye Junqing!
The most suitable couple for netizens to fantasize about should be Ye Junqing and Ye Xingguang.
Ye Xingguang was startled: “What? If I post a selfie on Weibo, wouldn’t the whole world know I’m the ‘Little Mermaid’? Are you again being controlled by the love bug? Are the side effects really that serious?”
“Who said I’m under the influence of a love bug?” Ye Junqing regretted teasing her. Now everything he says gets twisted!
Ye Junqing kept his face straight, looking both depressed and stern. His thin lips pressed together, showing no room for negotiation: “Send it right now! After it’s posted, I’ll have it featured as the top trending topic.”
