Chapter 35
Be Better Behaved
Ye Yao was stumped for a moment. She quickly pressed her palms together. “Mistake, mistake. Can you not mention Zhou Chen? I have a gunpowder barrel behind me.”
Jiang Jie turned back and glanced at Huo Buyu, who was wearing an icy expression, and shuddered. Ye Yao tugged at her and whispered, “I say, you’re too bold. Aren’t you afraid that your open confessions will affect your career?” Jiang Jie was a celebrity, and a popular one at that. A skilled actress, she was beautiful and had a good figure. In character she was rather straightforward and overall a very likable person. Given her huge fan base, now that she had made such an open confession, the media would definitely pick this up.
Jiang Jie was nonchalant. “If I can’t continue my career in the entertainment industry, I’ll simply quit. Let Yang Youwei support me. Anyway, he can afford to support me. But Ye Yao, did you see that? Even the heavens are helping me. The gods must think that Yang Youwei and I are a match made in heaven!” The thought of it snowing earlier on made Jiang Jie extremely excited. How could it have been so coincidental?!
Ye Yao replied, “It wasn’t the heavens helping you. It was your buddy. I was helping you.”
Jiang Jie grinned and didn’t believe her at all. Nevertheless, she said perfunctorily, “Yes, yes, yes. It must be because you’re here too, so I got lucky!”
Seeing Jiang Jie’s attitude, Ye Yao refused to admit defeat. “You don’t believe me, right? I’ll show you now!”
Ye Yao looked around. Just as she was about to speak, a large hand reached over from behind and covered her mouth. Huo Buyu said, “Ye Yao, if you dare to speak nonsense, I’ll make you a mute.” He’d already told her not to casually tell others about her ability, but she just wouldn’t take heed!
Ye Yao widened her eyes and shook her head.
Huo Buyu warned fiercely, “Behave, understand?!”
Ye Yao looked at him pitifully, indicating that she understood. Only then did Huo Buyu, wearing an icy expression, release her.
As soon as Ye Yao was freed, she made a face at Huo Buyu and ran forward with Jiang Jie in tow. Huo Buyu was so angry that his chest heaved.
Yang Youwei had been observing Huo Buyu’s attitude towards her. How should he put it… It seemed that he was breathing down her neck a little, but Yang Youwei knew very well what Ye Yao was like. She was capable of causing trouble and infuriating others! However, she was completely herself in the presence of Huo Buyu. Previously, when Ye Yao was with Zhou Chen, he had despised Zhou Chen. At that time, Ye Yao was well-behaved and sensible. Even her smile was fake. A person who had lost herself in love and did not even dare to express her true personality. Was that love? Fortunately, Ye Yao and Zhou Chen’s engagement failed later. On the other hand, Huo Buyu and Ye Yao…
Yang Youwei had some understanding of matters relating to the Huo family and knew some things about Huo Buyu. Most importantly, there was no need for a person like Huo Buyu to lie to Ye Yao. There was nothing he could covet from Ye Yao. As long as Huo Buyu gave a word, there’d be girls thousands of times better than Ye Yao lining up to throw themselves at him.
Ye Yao held Jiang Jie’s hand and the two of them ran into the KTV pub happily. As Jiang Jie was selecting songs, Ye Yao took out her cell phone and scrolled through the news. As expected, it was on the news. The headline: [Snowflakes As Jiang Jie Made Public Confession. Extravagant!] There were also many live photographs and comments below.
Jiang Jie was only 20 years old and was at the peak of her career. Announcing her relationship at this point and being the “chaser” in the relationship would have a huge impact on her career. Ye Yao showed Jiang Jie her cell phone. “As expected, the news has already started reporting.”
Jiang Jie took only a cursory glance and stopped looking. “Let them report whatever they want. As a celebrity, you have to be able to withstand the gossip. My dream isn’t to be a big star. I just want to be Yang Youwei’s wife, your aunt, and then stay at home to take care of my husband and children.” She didn’t care if she was a big star or not. Yang Youwei was her only direction in life.
Ye Yao liked Jiang Jie’s carefree personality. She was a very open-minded and decisive person who went boldly with the flow of things. Of course, the exception was where Yang Youwei was concerned. The next moment, the three men found themselves sitting in the private room, having their eardrums tortured by Ye Yao’s and Jiang Jie’s crazy singing.
After belting out a song, Ye Yao felt that the quality of the microphone was deteriorating. She was furious. “What sort of lousy microphone is this! Terrible quality! This KTV might as well close down!”
Huo Buyu frowned when he heard Ye Yao’s complaint. He subconsciously glanced at Gao Qiao, who was next to him. Gao Qiao was puzzled by his gaze.
