Chapter 5 - His Terrible

It was not that she didn't know that their relationship wasn't good, but even if she did, she could only choose to be smiling and treat him. He was not his biggest enemy in the first place, so Xia Ying treated her like an ordinary person.

”Why can't I be here?”

Gu Yuan curled her lips, and with her arms folded across her chest, she walked step by step towards Xia Ying who was standing at the head of the stairs. She was tall, and by her side, she was merely at the same level as him.

”Xia Ying, did you use some method to make Liang Ye choose you?”

Xia Ying raised her head, and looked at her with a puzzled expression, ”What do you mean?”

”Did you climb into his bed?” Gu Yuan straightened her body, raised her hand, hooked her middle finger, and tapped on her shoulder a few times. The strength behind his words caused her to frown in pain.

”Gu Yuan, there are some things that should not be said carelessly.”

Xia Ying bit her lips, looking displeased. Gu Yuan let out a cold snort, leveled all five of her fingers, and placed them on her shoulder. ”Let me tell you, don't think that you can keep Liang Ye with just your body.”

Gu Yuan's voice was a little loud, so loud that practically everyone on the second floor could hear her voice. Although they did not have much of a reaction, they all turned around and looked at Xia Ying.

Xia Ying straightened her back. She wanted to speak out, but discovered that Gu Yuan's expression had subtly changed.

”I …”

”I, Liang Ye's woman, naturally should use my body to keep me.” A pair of large, thick, but ice-cold hands closed around her shoulders.

Xia Ying could not help but shudder, her eyebrows knitted together uneasily. She did not speak, and could only stiffen her body, allowing the man beside her to embrace her.

The instant Gu Yuan saw Liang Ye, it was obvious that he was a little fearful. He rarely appeared in everyone's line of sight and she had only been lucky enough to see him a few times, but she was already deeply attracted to him.

”Liang Ye, is it really you?”

Hearing the ear-piercing scream, Liang Ye frowned, he lowered his head to look at Xia Ying, his charming face suddenly turning soft and gentle.

The hand on his shoulder slowly moved up her ponytail. His low and sexy voice sounded by his ear, ”My fiancée, you're not obedient. I'll make you wait for me downstairs. Why did you come up here?”

Her hair emitted a faint fragrance that Liang Ye had never smelled before. This woman didn't like to use perfume, but the smell on her body was really good.

Compared to the other women's inferior perfume, he actually liked this kind of natural body fragrance more.

Seeing that Liang Ye was not only ignoring him, but was actually treating Xia Ying with such gentleness, Gu Yuan couldn't help but hold the limited edition leather bag tightly in his hands.

In the ears of others, his voice was low and sexy, but in Xia Ying's ears, it was completely different.

Her scalp was tingling, but she still had to maintain her most beautiful smile as she turned to look at him. ”I was just bored waiting below.”

”Is that so?” ”His cold and thin lips lightly brushed against her cheek, leaving no trace behind.” I hope that next time, I won't see you being bullied. ”

When he said those words, his ice-cold eyes swept across Gu Yuan's face which was gradually turning pale white.

”No one is allowed to hurt my woman. Even I, Liang Ye myself, am not allowed to make her cry.”

After he finished speaking, Xia Ying could only see the haze in his eyes.

This person was too terrifying. She tried to break free from his embrace, but the man's hand was firmly pressed on her shoulder. She couldn't move, and could only glare at him hatefully.

Liang Ye suddenly looked up, the cold glint in his eyes scared Gu Yuan and caused him to retreat a step. Liang Ye sneered as he held onto her shoulder and walked past her.

The cold aura was breathtaking, and cold sweat had long started to seep out of Gu Yuan's palms. She turned her head and Liang Ye's figure gradually disappeared into the hallway.

A breeze was blowing, the light green muslin curtains were gently swaying, and the faint aroma of coffee was lingering on the tip of his nose.

”I didn't expect you to be such a weak person.”

Lifting up the Blue Mountain coffee in his hand, Liang Ye lowered his head and took a sip.

Xia Ying's face was pale white. She couldn't help but be scared whenever she saw him, but she couldn't either.

She knew that the reason Liang Ye chose her was only because of what she had said that night.

But to be able to display the same level of strength as him in front of him, Xia Ying was truly incapable of doing so.

”I just don't want to argue with her.”

It was a good answer, but Liang Ye was obviously not satisfied. He raised his hand and beat on the wooden table with his well-defined joints. The rhythmic ”tat tat tat” sound was very disturbing.

”Is that so?”

He had only said two words, and Xia Ying found it hard to breathe. She got up and glanced at him. ”I have to go. I still have things to do.”

”What is it?”

Liang Ye's face darkened. He gave her some colors and she started the workshop. He was the first to leave the table before him.

”My own business.”

With an impatient tone, Xia Ying didn't bother about his reaction and turned to leave.
