Chapter 279: The Mouth of the God, the Deceiving Ghost

Chapter 279

An Nuan was serious about what she said. It wasn't only for self-preservation, but also because she owed him and had to repay him!

Back then, Gu Yan Sheng had always been working to advance his official career. In order to smooth his path, she had also suggested many underhanded schemes against Ye Jinghuai that went against her conscience. The most outrageous time was during an election campaign. Because Ye Jinghuai clearly had higher support rates, without full confidence that Gu Yan Sheng could win, she selfishly gave Gu Yan Sheng an idea - to dig up dirt on Ye Jinghuai and expose it on election day.

The dirt was naturally about Ye Jinghuai's uncontrolled personal life.

At the time, she had always felt that Ye Jinghuai was someone with a very messy private life, so exposing it wouldn't be falsely accusing him. But later, much later, she suddenly felt that maybe that wasn't the case.

The exposure back then might have been a setup by Gu Yan Sheng.

Because at that time, Ye Jinghuai no longer had any women around him!

What she didn't quite understand was that if it had been a setup back then, why didn't Ye Jinghuai defend himself during that election?

In fact, he had taken the initiative to withdraw from the election.

After that incident, Ye Jinghuai's career progressed much slower than Gu Yan Sheng's.

Although he did catch up later, he was still held back for a time.

So now she had to make amends for her past mistakes.

She also had to take back all the benefits that Gu Yan Sheng had gained by multiple times more!

"An Nuan," Ye Jinghuai suddenly had a stern expression.

He put down his chopsticks, and lifted her chin with his long, slender fingers.

An Nuan's eyes flickered slightly.

Her gaze looking at his fingers.

Clearly surprised.

"Let me tell you once more," Ye Jinghuai enunciated every word, his voice exceptionally low and deep, "What I want is not a meteoric rise. What I want is..."

An Nuan looked at him.

Her heart beating faster as she gazed tightly at him.

Gazing at his thin lips moving slightly, "You."

Such a simple "you".

Yet it came from Ye Jinghuai's mouth.

"Alright," An Nuan suddenly spoke. Alll latest novels at novelhall.com

Just when Ye Jinghuai thought she would remain silent.

She actually talked.

She said, "The day your career takes off, I'll really marry you."

With my body and heart, I'll marry you.

"It's a promise," Ye Jinghuai readily agreed.

A promise.

A pledge!

...

The next day.

3 pm in the afternoon.

An Nuan received a friendly reminder from Luo Si, reminding her about the An's anniversary celebration tonight.

An Nuan turned her head to look at Ye Jinghuai, who was sitting on the sofa playing games.

This was what he called making good preparations.

She had just seen the news that Gu Yan Sheng had gone to an orphanage to do charity in person.

Why would he talk about family relationships?

Ye Jinghuai glared at An Nuan.

In that instant he almost spewed blood.

He said, "Miss An, do you not know if my sexual orientation is normal?"

"Who knows?" An Nuan provoked, "I haven't tried it anyway."

"Oh? Want to give it a try?" Ye Jinghuai suddenly exuded danger all over.

"No!" An Nuan threw him a sentence and dashed to run outside the villa lobby.

Ye Jinghuai's lips curved up as he briskly caught up.

This was how lovers' bickering tended to go.

Uncle Zhong watched their retreating figures with satisfaction on his face.

In contrast, Hu Feng who was waiting for them by the door almost dropped his eyeballs out.

Since when had Master Ye become like this?!

He must be seeing things, he must be seeing things!

How could Master Ye be so childish?!

How could he...

He then saw Master Ye suddenly grab Madam and press her against the car.

"Hu Feng, turn around," Ye Jinghuai ordered.

Hu Feng was standing by the car door right then. Hearing the order, he hastily turned around.

Behind him, he heard...

"Ye Jing...Mm..."

Then.

No more sounds.

Who said.

Master Ye wasn't fond of women.

Men's mouths lie like ghosts!

...

An Nuan's lips were swollen as she went with Luo Si to select a gown from Celine.

She was thoroughly miffed!

"Miss," the staff respectfully came up to receive her.

An Nuan made an effort to calm herself.

"Your gown has already been prepared for you."

"Alright," An Nuan nodded slightly. "What about Ye Jinghuai's?"

"Third Young Master Ye's has also been prepared."

"You prepared one for me too?" Ye Jinghuai was clearly pleasantly surprised.

"It was personally designed by Miss herself," the staff member promptly flattered. "Third Young Master Ye will definitely be very satisfied."

"Is that so?" The smile on Ye Jinghuai's face made no attempt to hide his elated mood. It was visibly euphoric.

"Don't think too much, I'm just afraid you'll embarrass me," An Nuan said grumpily.

"Women just love being tsundere."

You're the one being tsundere! Your whole family are tsunderes!
