Ye Ze did not notice the subtle change in Ye Yu’s expression and was still complaining. “Could it be that man with Ye in his name?”

Suddenly thinking of something, Ye Ze stared at Ye Yu. “Second Brother, you have Ye in your name. Could it be you?”

The moment he said it, Ye Ze shook his head hurriedly.

“F*ck, what am I thinking?” Ye Ze scratched his head, shocked by his own guess. “My goddess definitely won’t like someone like you.”

The temperature in the air dropped.

The surroundings seemed to be frozen and Ye Yu said coldly, “Why?”

“When she was in high school, she said that she hated cool boys the most. She said that it was boring to be with such people. Those people don’t know how to be romantic or coax girls. It’s suffocating being with them!”

Seeing Ye Yu’s dark expression, Ye Ze hurriedly explained, “Second Brother, I’m not saying that you’re bad, but everyone has different preferences. Besides, you won’t have a good ending with my goddess!”

Even Ye Ze would have to shed a layer of skin if he really wanted to marry Ning Yuan. Otherwise, his family would definitely not agree!

Ye Yu pursed his lips tightly and looked at Ye Ze coldly. “Shut up.”

“Alright, Second Brother. I’ll think about it in my mind.”

Ye Yu had the urge to kick Ye Ze out of the plane.

It was a good thing that he did not see him. This person was about to leave his sight for a few months!

….

After Ye Yu returned, Ning Yuan returned to her normal work and life.

With his bodyguards, she did not have to worry about safety.

He was busy with work and often went abroad. The time difference between them was different and he did not call and message her every day.

But she would send him two cheesy messages within a fixed time.

Sometimes she received his replies in time, and sometimes in the middle of the night.

He would always reply with:

As time passed, Ning Yuan automatically understood what he meant.

She had no choice. He was such a quiet person. If she wanted to hear something nice from him, she would have to wait until her next life!

In a blink of an eye, she had been here for five months and would return to the capital in another month.

That night, Ning Yuan returned to the dormitory after working overtime. She had just taken a bath when she received a call from Ye Yu.

During this period, the number of times they called could be counted on one hand.

Seeing that he had taken the initiative to call her, Ning Yuan was a little excited.

She lay on the bed and answered his call.

She had a lot to say to him, but after the call went through, there was only the beating of her heart.

Neither of them spoke and they could hear each other’s breathing through the electric current.

Ning Yuan felt that his breathing was a little heavier than usual and she said sharply, “Did you drink?”

He hummed softly.

“You only remembered me after drinking. Should I be happy?” She puffed up her cheeks unconsciously, a feminine expression appearing on her beautiful face. This expression flowed out naturally and even she did not notice it.

“Who replied to your boring messages every day?” His deep voice was slightly hoarse after drinking.

“I won’t post tomorrow if I’m bored.”

He scoffed.

Ning Yuan felt his ridicule and was about to say something to him when she suddenly heard a deep voice. “I miss you.”

Ning Yuan thought that there was something wrong with her hearing.

By the time her brain reacted, she had already said, “If you miss me, why didn’t you video call me?”

The person on the other end of the call had already hung up.

Ning Yuan looked at the darkened screen and waited for his video with one hand on her cheek.

After nearly a minute, he finally sent it over.

The moment the video call went through, Ning Yuan immediately sat up and played with her long hair.

“It’s dark.”

The moment their eyes met, she heard him say that.

Ning Yuan’s heart sank and she wanted to hang up immediately.

“I haven’t seen you for three months and the first thing you say is that I’m black.”

From the background behind him, he should be in the hotel. He was leaning against the wall of the corridor, wearing an exquisite white shirt. His eyes were dark and his facial features were well-defined. He was as handsome and cold as ever.

Seeing her biting her lips, furrowing her eyebrows and looking unhappy, he smirked. “You’ve lost weight too.”

“As long as you haven’t lost weight there.” She moved the camera slightly.

She saw his eyes darken and wanted to follow the camera, but she immediately looked away, a smile on her lips. “I won’t let you see or get me.”

It must have been because he had drunk, but he actually laughed at her words.

His obsidian-like narrow eyes were filled with stars when he smiled.

Ning Yuan’s heart skipped a beat and a smile appeared on her beautiful face.

What should she do? He really killed people when he smiled!

“I want to hear those two words again.”

“What?” He raised an eyebrow.

“I missed you.”

He hummed and said, “Got it.”

Tsk, this person…

“I told you to say it!”

He raised his other hand and pressed between his eyebrows. “Say it once.”

“Alright, I won’t say anything.”

His hand that was pressing between his eyebrows moved to his well-defined face and his fingers pointed at his face.

He did not say anything, but Ning Yuan quickly understood what he meant.

She put her soft lips close to the screen and kissed his face through the screen.

Although they were not face to face, her heart still beat faster.

His skin was very good. When she looked at him closely, there were no pores and his facial features were well-defined. Her long eyelashes fluttered and her cheeks were flushed.

Neither of them spoke anymore, as if they could feel each other’s breath and temperature through the screen.

Until a soft voice came from the room. “Ah Yu.”

Ning Yuan looked up at her phone.

The door behind Ye Yu opened and a woman in a long white dress came out.

Because Ye Yu had kept his phone, Ning Yuan did not see the woman’s face clearly.

He could only hear that the woman’s voice was rather gentle and sweet.

“Did you drink too much? I’ll go prepare some honey water.”

Ye Yu hummed.

Ning Yuan could not see how they were talking, but from the conversation, she could tell that they were acquaintances.

Seeing that the woman was so attentive to Ye Yu and that Ye Yu accepted the woman’s concern naturally, their relationship should be good.

After the sound of the woman’s high heels faded away, Ning Yuan saw Ye Yu again.

“Rest early.”

Ning Yuan pursed her lips, wanting to say something, but in the end, she said nothing.

She nodded and hung up the video call first.

Lying on the bed, Ning Yuan turned over.

She must be thinking too much. Ye Yu was not a two-timing person!

He was still with her now, so they probably wouldn’t be flirting outside!

They should be close acquaintances!

Ning Yuan was not a person who liked to think about things and soon fell asleep.

The next day when she arrived at the office, she received shocking news.
