Rong Qi clenched her teeth and remained silent. She had originally said it to deliberately provoke Ye Nanshen, and she had no intention of actually going to find her ex-boyfriend.
Moreover, Rong Qi did not even have a boyfriend.
However, words spoken unintentionally can be heard with different intentions.
Ye Nanshen held Rong Qi’s hand, his gaze profound, and suddenly he blurted out, “Wait, didn’t you say you don’t have an ex-boyfriend?”
Rong Qi choked, “Who said 1 don’t?”
‘Can’t I even make one up?’ Rong Qi thought.
Ye Nanshen’s voice turned chilly and said, “That person, is it Ding Ding?”
The name ‘Ding Ding’ sounded like a younger brother, and Ye Nanshen could not help but feel superior, thinking that he was better than that guy in every aspect. He did not care about the so-called ‘ex-boyfriend’ at all.
Rong Qi glared at Ye Nanshen irritably and said, “Who said that? How could my ex-boyfriend be Ding Ding?”
“Then how do you know BAE, or rather, why did BAE stand up for you? If he’s not your ex-boyfriend, how could he stand up for you?” Ye Nanshen questioned as he could not figure it out.
Ye Nanshen had seen how much BAE had protected Rong Qi in the auditorium, but he had to endure it since they were protecting the same person.
“Oh…” Rong Qi stammered and blinked. “Because he’s my neighbor. If he doesn’t help me, who else should he help?”
“Really?” Ye Nanshen asked. His gaze followed Rong Qi, probing her.
‘Why would a genius with such high aspirations like BAE be willing to protect someone?’ Ye Nanshen pondered.
Since he was a child, Ye Nanshen had been moving in the center of power and had almost experienced every type of person’s personality.
Therefore, Ye Nanshen believed that there were only two ways to subdue people like BAE. One was enough benefits, and the other was to make them completely submit by showing one’s abilities.
It was evident that Rong Qi was too poor to fall into the first category.
So, only the second possibility remained. Earlier, Ye Nanshen’s computer had been hacked, and all the viruses in the video conference were suddenly cleared. After that, Mrs. Hong said that only Rong Qi came out from his study.
Heh…
Ye Nanshen looked at Rong Qi and reached out to touch her face. He said, “Little Qi, you surprised me.”
Rong Qi gulped nervously and did not dare to speak.
At the airport, Gu Ziye had been waiting at the arrival gate after receiving the call. He had picked up Gu Yuyan very early, but she refused to leave.
Gu Yuyan had a pair of sunglasses on her face and a tall figure with a standard oval face. Wearing a windbreaker, she looked like a model from a magazine. But at this moment, there was a hint of desolation and sadness on her face.
Gu Ziye frowned in distress and persuaded Gu Yuyan, “Sis, let’s go home. Shen is busy at work these days, and Shen is probably still in a meeting. If he has time, how could he not come to pick you up?”
However, Gu Yuyan shook her head with a bitter smile and said, “Ziye, are you not busy either? But you still came, and he didn’t. He never used to be like this.”
In the past, no matter what Gu Yuyan asked Ye Nanshen to do, he would make time to accompany her. But now, even on her first day back in the country, he was unwilling to show up.
To Gu Yuyan, Ye Nanshen had changed.
Gu Ziye did not know what to say.
Three years ago, after such a big incident, Gu Yuyan left without saying a word. It was normal for Ye Nanshen to have emotions. So when Gu Ziye found out that Ye Nanshen would not come to pick her up, Gu Ziye came to pick her up himself without saying a word.
Now Gu Ziye was caught in the middle, torn between his own sister and his friend.
Gu Ziye cursed inwardly, ‘Why didn’t I think of asking Lu Chengzhou, that idiot, to come and pick her up? Then 1 wouldn’t have been in such a dilemma!’
Gu Yuyan looked mournful as she stared at her darkened phone screen. She finally mustered up the courage to call Ye Nanshen.
On the other side, just as Ye Nanshen and Rong Qi arrived at the company, he received a call.
Rong Qi smiled faintly, waiting to watch the show..
