Capítulo 1677: Chapter 1677: Whoever Helps, Gets Unlucky
Just hearing that he was leaving, her lips curled up with delight.
In Yu Xiuzhun’s eyes, it was like a response to him, and his heart stirred slightly.
Something, like a warm stream, slowly flowed through his heart.
Were they like this, like an ordinary couple, the husband leaving for work, and the wife tidying up his clothes…
“Alright, you can go now.”
After tidying up his clothes, Ye Mingmei stepped back immediately, looking at him warily, afraid he would change his mind the next second.
The flutter in Yu Xiuzhun’s chest was instantly shattered by the wariness in her eyes.
His gaze turned dark and cold as he glanced at her, then walked out.
Ye Mingmei watched him nervously but didn’t chase after him, nor did she ask from where he’d exit.
She just thought to herself that she must hire more security guards from the agency later to ensure twenty-four-hour protection of the villa.
…
“Mingmei…”
When Qin Youxuan arrived, it was already ten in the morning.
Ye Mingmei was still lying in bed.
The quilt was wrapped tightly around her, leaving only her head exposed.
Seeing her come in, she just blinked her eyes, not daring to get up.
Her body was covered with marks left by Yu Xiuzhun, and even wearing long-sleeved clothes couldn’t cover the hickeys on her neck.
After much thought, Ye Mingmei could only lie back in bed, wrapping herself tightly again.
“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
Seeing her wrapped up so tightly, Qin Youxuan became a bit nervous.
“I’m fine, just too tired, wanted to sleep a bit more. Why did you come over?” Ye Mingmei sat up, leaning against the headboard, keeping the quilt pulled up to her neck.
Her silky long hair draped over her shoulders, perfectly concealing the bite marks on her ears.
Yu Xiuzhun was really furious yesterday.
As if he wanted to engrave his mark on her, there was no place he spared.
He torturously left her covered in red marks, both suggestive and embarrassing.
“I heard you ran into Yu Xiuzhun at the party yesterday and came to check on you. Haven’t seen him in so long, are you still scared?” Qin Youxuan, feeling distressed, held her hand and asked softly.
“I’m fine… just don’t like having contact with him…” Ye Mingmei whispered, lowering her head in guilt.
If Qin Youxuan found out that Yu Xiuzhun had spent the night in her room, she might get so angry she’d want to kill him.
Ye Mingmei didn’t know what to do. Yu Xiuzhun wouldn’t let go, and she couldn’t avoid it at all.
Anyone who tried to help her would only end up burdened.
She didn’t want to burden those around her any longer.
Sometimes she even thought that Yu Xiuzhun was just momentarily interested, and once that interest waned, he’d naturally get tired of her, and then she’d be free.
For now, she just pretended it was a dog bite, why care if it bit more?
“If you’re uncomfortable, you don’t have to see him. If you’re unhappy in America, go take a break. I’ll book you a flight, and you and Ru can stroll in Paris. There are many fashion shows there these days, and you can accompany Ru to see them.”
Qin Youxuan patted the back of her hand, smiling as she spoke.
“The company is very busy right now, maybe later. I’m fine, I’ll just avoid him.” Ye Mingmei bit her lip, replied softly.
“Alright then, do as you see fit. Just let me know if anything comes up, don’t keep it to yourself.” Qin Youxuan said, noticing her deep dark circles, indicating she hadn’t slept well, guessed she was tired, and stood up.
