Chapter 475: Chapter 0475: Wu Mei Wants to Invite to Dinner
Ye Xunhuan headed straight back to the Imperial Group after leaving Stone Peak Bamboo Garden.
Not long after he had returned to his office, Long Zuputi walked in from outside.
As soon as Long Zuputi came in, without waiting for Ye Xunhuan to speak, she directly asked, "Were you okay last night?"
Liu Qingcheng’s unusual behavior the previous night filled Long Zuputi with worry. She wondered if Ye Xunhuan had been hurt, but if that was the case, Liu Qingcheng should not have treated her like that!
What on earth happened to Ye Xunhuan last night?
It had caused Liu Qingcheng to act out of character.
Curiosity and concern flooded Long Zuputi’s heart.
She was curious about why Liu Qingcheng would do such a thing, and worried about what could have happened to Ye Xunhuan!
Because of this, Long Zuputi had tossed and turned all night, unable to sleep.
"What could possibly happen to me?" Ye Xunhuan looked at Long Zuputi and smiled, saying, "I’m fine. What, do you want to see me in trouble or something?"
Ye Xunhuan of course knew what Long Zuputi was asking about.
But Ye Xunhuan did not plan to tell Long Zuputi.
It wasn’t that Ye Xunhuan didn’t trust Long Zuputi, but it was naturally better the fewer people knew about this matter. Otherwise, if someone used this information against him and caused him to take some crazy actions, then the consequences would undoubtedly be dreadful.
Moreover, if he wasn’t careful, it could even bring harm to Long Zuputi, so Ye Xunhuan decided to keep it to himself.
"Are you really okay?" Long Zuputi looked at Ye Xunhuan with some suspicion, scanning him up and down.
She clearly doubted his words!
"Of course, I’m really okay!" Ye Xunhuan said with a cheerful smile. "If something had happened to me, then how could I possibly still be standing here?"
"But last night, Liu Qingcheng..."
"Her? She was just upset that you and I had the chance to be alone together, so she deliberately scared you!" Ye Xunhuan blurted out some nonsense. "She begged me to play along, or else she wouldn’t let me have any peace. I had no choice but to agree!"
"Her acting is not bad, actually managed to fool you..."
In the midst of speaking, Ye Xunhuan started mentally apologizing to Willow Qing.
"That bitch, she actually played me!" Anger immediately flashed across Long Zuputi’s face. "And you, you bastard, you actually dared to cooperate with her to trick me!"
"I’ll beat you to death!"
As she spoke, Long Zuputi lunged at Ye Xunhuan, her hands moving as fast as lightning, incredibly quick.
Facing Long Zuputi’s attack, Ye Xunhuan naturally didn’t fight back; instead, he swiftly dodged to one side!
"It was her deceiving you, what does it have to do with me..."
"If you hadn’t cooperated with her, could I have been deceived by you two, a pair of dogs in the manger?"
Ye Xunhuan was speechless. If he and Liu Qingcheng were dogs in a manger, what did that make her, clinging to him?
After letting Long Zuputi make a fuss for a while, Ye Xunhuan spoke up, "Alright, that’s enough, stop making a scene. Otherwise, I’ll make you leave here in tears!"
"You..."
"I’m a victim too, okay? You two are fighting, and I’m stuck in the middle, tell me, am I miserable or not?" Ye Xunhuan said with a mournful expression: "Normally, I could have good days, but ever since you two showed up, my life has been a mess. I’m miserable as hell!"
"Damn it all!"
"I have no sister!"
Long Zuputi huffed coldly, "Ye Xunhuan, I’m warning you, if you dare to cooperate with that bitch again, I won’t let you off!"
"But what if she threatens me?"
"Then aren’t you afraid of my threats?"
Ye Xunhuan’s mouth twitched slightly, "Alright, I’ll try not to cooperate with her in the future, only with you!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Dragon Ancestor Bodhi’s face showed a satisfied expression, "That’s more like it!"
"What did you two do last night?"
"Nothing, she just wanted to piss you off, to see you explode with anger."
"Bitch!" Dragon Ancestor Bodhi cursed angrily, "Did you really do nothing?"
"Really?"
"Didn’t go to bed?"
Ye Xunhuan’s face was covered with black lines, "No!"
Ye Xunhuan was actually telling the truth, as last night he truly hadn’t gone to bed with Liu Qingcheng; instead, they enjoyed themselves in the forest.
So, strictly speaking, Ye Xunhuan did not deceive Dragon Ancestor Bodhi!
"Really?"
"Of course, I’m a married man, so how could I mess around outside..." Ye Xunhuan said earnestly, "It’s usually women who hit on me!"
Dragon Ancestor Bodhi almost collapsed on the ground when she heard this outrageous statement from Ye Xunhuan.
This scoundrel was becoming more and more shameless and slick with his words.
Ye Xunhuan at this moment, compared to last night’s killing spree, was completely different, as if he had become another person, giving off a frivolous and light-hearted vibe.
After staying with Ye Xunhuan for a while and confirming that he was indeed fine, Dragon Ancestor Bodhi turned and left.
However, in the moment of her departure, a look of doubt flashed in the depths of Dragon Ancestor Bodhi’s gaze.
A woman’s intuition told her that Ye Xunhuan was hiding something from her!
But since Ye Xunhuan wouldn’t talk, she didn’t press him further.
She knew Ye Xunhuan; if he didn’t want to talk, no amount of questioning would get any answers.
So she decided not to ask anything more; after all, there would be plenty of time in the future, and she didn’t believe she would remain in the dark forever.
After Dragon Ancestor Bodhi left, Ye Xunhuan exhaled a sigh of relief. Whether Dragon Ancestor Bodhi believed him or not, at least he had managed to muddle through.
With Dragon Ancestor Bodhi gone, Ye Xunhuan naturally became quiet again.
Having nothing better to do, he began his gaming life!
When it was almost noon, Ye Xunhuan’s cell phone suddenly rang.
Ye Xunhuan took out his phone and frowned slightly when he saw that the call was from an unfamiliar number. When had so many people gotten his number?
After a moment of contemplation, Ye Xunhuan still answered the call.
"Hello!"
"Mr. Ye, this is Wu Mei!" Wu Mei got straight to the point.
Her voice still carried a hint of coldness, but it no longer had that sense of enmity and hostility from the past; rather, it sounded very polite and respectful!
Wu Mei? 𝒏𝙤𝙫𝒑𝙪𝙗.𝙘𝒐𝙢
Ye Xunhuan’s face showed a hint of confusion; what did this woman want with him?
"Is there something you need?"
Perhaps because of her personality, Wu Mei did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point, "Mr. Ye, do you have time at noon? I would like to invite you to lunch."
"Now?" Ye Xunhuan was taken aback.
"Yes, I’m wondering if Mr. Ye has the time?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Wu Mei, as if afraid Ye Xunhuan would refuse, quickly spoke again with a hint of plea in her voice, "Mr. Ye, please rest assured, it won’t interfere with your work. After lunch, you can go back, and it’s very close to Huangtu Group."
