I feel that something is amiss with this matter. Ye Junli's reaction towards Liu Rui is too intense, to the point that it no longer sounds like something Ye Junli would say.

I looked at Ye Junli and asked, "What deep hatred do you have for that woman?"

Xiao Nian, I will think of a way to take revenge for you, I told Xiao Nian in my heart.

"What did you hide from me?" I couldn't help but ask.

Ye Junli blanked out for a moment. He didn't even look at me. "This has nothing to do with you."

I sneered, "Ye Junli, don't think that I really can't tell that you're using me. Liu Rui is my mother, why do you have such a deep grudge against her? Now that something has happened to Xiao Nian, I … " I would rather the one in trouble be myself than to let Xiao Nian leave so early. After all, I have already experienced so much and Xiao Nian is still clean. I still have a lot of life to enjoy.

"It's not that I don't want to make use of you, it doesn't matter if you believe me or not. I really do have a feeling towards you, but perhaps this feeling is very faint, making you feel that you cannot believe me." Ye Junli's tone was very calm.

I looked at his perfect profile and didn't know what to say.

Ye Junli definitely hid something from me, something about Liu Rui and why he came to find me.

"It doesn't matter. I have nothing to worry about right now anyway, so I'm just thinking about how to take revenge. I'm not interested in your matters." I turned to look at her.

"Zhou Xiang, there are some things I don't think I need to tell you. I have my own life and I don't want these things to affect you."

What makes him think that his story would affect me, unless he really has something to do with me that he's hiding from me?

But I don't care about these things anymore, I only care about how I can make Hei Baozi do it.

"Actually, I'm a bit envious of you." Ye Junli suddenly said.

"Envy me? What do you envy me for? Jealous that I could go to a bar and be a dancer? Or do you envy me that I'm alone now? "Ye Junli, your way of thinking is really laughable." I said mockingly.

Ye Junli didn't immediately answer me. Instead, he turned his head to look at me and smiled. "There's actually something that you didn't notice?"

"What are you trying to say?" I looked at him indifferently, not knowing what he was trying to express. I still didn't understand much about Ye Junli. In my heart, he was just a relatively close member of the Wealthy Class.

"I never told you about my mother." Ye Junli pulled to the side and looked indifferently into the distance.

I thought back upon hearing his words, and it seemed as if I had never heard him mention his mother before. Not only him, but there wasn't even a rumor about his mother. Actually, it's normal for there to be a few women around for someone as important as his father, but he is clearly not Madam Ye's son, and he can't possibly be Liu Rui's son no matter what.

Ye Junqing calling him an illegitimate child proved that his mother was a woman that would not stand on stage. But now that Ye Junli had already reached such a position, what was there to be ashamed of?

Unless his mother had passed away a long time ago, and the reason for her death was related to either Liu Rui or Madam Ye.

"What are you trying to say? Was your mother killed by Liu Rui? " I looked up into his face.

Ye Junli turned his head and looked at me in surprise. "How did you know?"

I was startled, I didn't expect that my guess was actually correct.

"I already said it, your attitude towards Liu Rui is too weird, strange to the point that it doesn't seem like your style anymore. Someone who can make a person like you lose your cool, must have a deep grudge." I looked into his eyes and analyzed each word.

Ye Junli stared straight at me, his eyes full of ridicule.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked him doubtfully.

Ye Junli laughed softly, "Zhou Xiang, I told you long ago that you are a smart woman, but I didn't expect you to be so understanding. You didn't even need me to say a word or two to guess things so clearly."

I lowered my head, avoiding Ye Junli's gaze.

Ye Junli's eyes were very pretty, a pair of peach blossom eyes, but those eyes would give me goosebumps from time to time, but thinking about it, it was true. After all, a man like him, if he showed a kind expression, it would truly surprise me.

"You're right, my mother is indeed dead, but she wasn't killed by Liu Rui like you thought." Ye Junli let out a sigh, then weakly leaned back in his seat as he spoke softly.

"Who did it?" I was beginning to get curious about him. A man like him, the more secret he has, the more fascinating he becomes. I can't help but be moved by him, but I can't keep him from me.

Ye Junli, the charm of this man, was far greater than I had imagined. Because of this, I could only try my best to avoid having any relationship with him, or to prevent myself from being unable to extricate myself from his world. At that time, I would be the most lamentable.

Ye Junli didn't look at me, but lightly shook his head. "I don't know, but I'm sure that the culprits are the people from the Ye Clan."

After knowing him for so long, he had seen him often when he was angry, but he had never seen such strong emotions in his eyes.

"So that's why you wanted me to follow you." I said, looking at him.

Shaking his head, he said, "No, you've guessed wrongly. I don't have any intentions, and I'm only doing it for mutual benefit. But, don't misunderstand me. This Huihe Li has nothing to do with you. Rather than making use of you, I might as well help you."
