Having said that, Ye Xingguang snapped her fingers, worried that she might not be able to rouse herself. To her, the way this man looked at her was like a black hole of love. If her self-control was even slightly off, she would instantly fall in, undoubtedly shattering into pieces.
Unexpectedly, when it came to showmanship, his acting skills were even more exquisite than hers.
If she were to describe herself as a small-time actress just moments ago, then Ye Junqing was definitely a superstar actor. She almost mistakenly thought he was deeply in love with her.
But thinking back to the hurtful words Fu Zhuo said earlier in the day, Ye Xingguang quickly cleared her head. Her strong sense of self-esteem came forth, “Don’t worry, I won’t have any romantic thoughts about you. Actually, I like someone else. I’m with you only because 1 have no other choice.”
The man, who seemed unable to control his emotions just a moment ago, lost all warmth from his face upon hearing her words.
“Who do you like?”
Ye Xingguang remained silent. Her words were nothing more than an excuse to protect her pride.
Seeing her bury her head in her steak without saying a word, Ye Junqing asked coldly, “Can’t forget your ex-boyfriend?”
“How could l? Why would I want to hang myself from a crooked tree stump?”
Even if she did harbor some residual feelings, she would strangle them in the cradle. The man who dumped her was not worth remembering, let alone longing for.
Ye Junqings face relaxed slightly, “So, who is it? Han Chengbei?”
Recalling that Ye Junqing almost broke Han Chengbei’s hand earlier today over a pretty young man, Ye Xingguang shook her head again.
“He’s no one you know. Anyway, I’ll go along with you and play the role of your lawful wife for a year. But you need to cooperate too. Doing something like recording a video tonight is good. Otherwise, I really don’t know how I can help you without affecting your brother’s election.”
“Are you done talking?”
Ye Junqing wasn’t pleased with a single word of what she said. He preferred her when she was being overdramatic.
Ye Junqing felt a sense of frustration stuck in his chest, his eyes wishing they could see through her. “If you don’t feel anything for me, why did you come to the villa to keep me company last night, and why did you sneakily take pictures of me at the swimming pool today?”
Ye Xingguang hesitated in her steak-eating action. Why did this man have to ask embarrassing questions?
She could explain away her forgetting to act conscientious last night, but taking his pictures today… noveldrama
Could she just tell him it was because he was handsome, and she had a soft spot for good-looking people?
Ye Xingguang took a deep breath, attempting to look calm, and raised her head to answer, “Isn’t it to collect more evidence? So people won’t find any faults during our public relationship? I originally wanted to post some pictures on Weibo, to let the netizens see that we get along very well. But you fiercely demanded that I delete them. It’s only a few pictures. Was there really a need for such a fuss? If it weren’t for your interview last night, where you told Teacher Chang the possibility of falling in love over time was non-existent, damaging your image, would I have had to wrack my brains to think about how to restore it for you? You really don’t appreciate my good intentions.”
Having said that, Ye Xingguang picked up a piece of steak with her fork and bit into it aggressively, getting more and more irritated.
No sooner had she finished speaking, the man suddenly bent down, grabbing her chin, “Since you don’t want others to find any faults during our public relationship, then tell the person you like to get lost from your heart, you are not allowed to think about him!”
“Why?” Was he jealous?
Ye Junqings face was as dark as water, his voice icy and intimidating, “Don’t forget that during our public relationship, you are my woman. No one else can like you, nor can you like anyone else.. Otherwise, I will sue you for emotional infidelity, and you will rot in jail! Did you hear me clearly?”
