Chapter 385
Ye Xingguang’s head buzzed, immediately clouding her mind. Who was acting crazy? This goddamned man, really behaving like a damn dog…
After his fit, her mouth felt numb and speechless. She could only lift her resentful eyes, flushing with embarrassment, and glare at him.
But as their eyes met, the rage in the man’s eyes grew more intense, showing no sign of diminishing; the fiery anger kept escalating.
She gasped, too scared to utter any complaints, afraid of provoking him further.
It was so unfair; she had no idea why he was acting up like this!
At that moment, she heard footsteps and knocking from outside the dressing room, along with voices calling for them. Seizing this as her lifeline, she said, “Someone’s calling for us outside, let go of me.”
Ye Junqing refused to let go, fuming. More knocking could be heard from outside: “Mr. Qing, Miss Ye, are you inside? The banquet is about to end. Could you both please come on stage? Everyone is waiting; we’re only missing you.”
Going on stage again?
Ye Xingguang was hugely grateful for the people urging them from outside: “Ye Junqing, they’re urging us to go on stage.” noveldrama
“Going on stage, going on stage. It’s not like you can become the First Lady, why are you so enthusiastic?” Ye Junqing’s temper was immensely infuriating– he completely disregarded reason. He was a total jerk.
Ye Xingguang rolled her eyes: “Isn’t this your brother’s presidential campaign? I’m doing this for you, aren’t I?”
Ye Junqing remained silent, although her words were touching, they couldn’t soothe his wounded feelings. The thought of her mixing up their shared experiences with what she’d experienced with Qin Junye filled him with anger, stifling him.
“Knock knock knock… Mr. Qing, Miss Ye, did you hear me?”
“We heard you, we’re coming right away,” Ye Xingguang shouted back, then added: “Thank goodness I didn’t change my clothes.”
She reached behind to pull up the zip of her dress, but trapped in the man’s grasp, even the slightest movement was difficult. She struggled to pull up the zip for a long time with no success. Ye Junqing watched, lifted her, pinched the zipper between two fingers, and pulled it straight to the top with a single rough movement.
But even when fully zipped, her alluring back was still visible. This was a backless dress.
Ye Junqing’s voice sank again: “Stop wearing these types of shoulder-exposing, back-exposing dresses for me in the future. They don’t suit a proper lady.”
Ye Xingguang: “!!!!!!”
Ye Xingguang could no longer control her temper: “Are you ill without taking your medicine? You’re not a reputable man!”
After saying this, she raised her leg and stomped on his foot with her high heels, then stormed out of the dressing room huffily.
Ye Junqing followed, swiftly catching her wrist and tightening his grip. Then looking down at her, his condescension palpable, he retorted, “It’s better to forget about the medicine than having a brain full of water like you, at least my IQ isn’t affected!”
Ye Xingguang: “!!!!!!”
Deep breaths, stay calm, stay calm; don’t kill in anger!
The banquet was still bustling. As the couple most focused on this season appeared hand in hand backstage, the girls couldn’t help but scream, watching a sight they could hardly forget. This was the couple’s first joint appearance in public!
Inside, Ye Xingguang felt incredibly frustrated. Yet, when she got on stage, the host joked and asked: “Miss Ye, may I ask a question on behalf of all the girls who may draw a ticket in the future and those who already did? How did you manage to charm this man who’s said to be a curse for anyone who wins the ticket?”
