Shen Ye had thought about it and he didn’t mind being around Ye Ze. The purple aura on Ye Ze made him feel very comfortable and he had a sense of closeness with him. It took a great deal of mental energy for him to do fortune-telling, drawing symbols, and using talismans. After marrying Ye Ze, he could replenish his energy by being with him, like recharging a battery. It was a beautiful thought.
Ye Ze’s eyes flickered slightly. He didn’t answer but instead asked him, “And you, do you want to get married?”
Ze Ye was half a head taller than him and a purple aura surrounded his body. The sunlight was shining on him from behind and he was glowing with a layer of purple and gold light as if he could compete with the sun and moon.
Shen Ye had originally intended to nod obediently, but he thought better of it. After all, he had approached Ye Ze with a purpose and he didn’t know if Ye Ze would agree or not. Besides, he didn’t want Ye Ze to know how eager he was to get married, so he said coyly, “Let’s talk about it after I get the jade pendant tomorrow.”
Ye Ze smiled slightly and said, “Okay.”
There was a hint of indulgence in his smile.
Shen Ye’s eyes were dazzled and he felt a little uncomfortable. So he looked away and asked, “Will you be staying in Haicheng these few days?” Their engagement hadn’t been finalized yet and Ye Ze would have to stay in the city. Thinking of this, he smiled and said, “Do you have a place to stay? Why don’t you stay with me?”
He invited Ye Ze warmly.
For the next few days, he had to go and do fortune-telling to make money. If Ye Ze stayed at his house, he could absorb the purple aura from him anytime, making him feel very happy.
Ye Ze understood the invitation in his words. He certainly had a place to stay, but looking at Shen Ye’s shining eyes, he mischievously asked, “Will I be bothering you?”
“Not at all, not at all.” Shen Ye shook his head quickly.
“Okay, then I’ll stay here.” Ye Ze said.
Shen Ye was so happy that he almost jumped up and down in place.
Looking at his ecstatic look, Ye Ze lifted the corner of his lips.
He carefully examined Shen Ye’s face and asked: “You were in the hospital the past few days and suddenly got discharged today. Are you okay now?”
“I’m fine, it’s already healed.” This was all thanks to Ye Ze. He had been nourished by the purple aura around Ye Ze for several hours, which was more effective than any elixir. He couldn’t be more energetic.
“That’s good,” Ye Ze said.
The two fell silent.
Shen Ye remembered that he had to go to the company tomorrow and said: “By the way, I have something to do tomorrow, and I may come back late… Could you please take care of my grandma for a day?”
Ye Ze didn’t hesitate and replied: “Sure.”
First, he brought a doctor, servants, and bodyguards, so he didn’t need to personally take care of things. Second, Shen Ye’s grandfather saved his grandfather’s life in the past, so even if he and Shen Ye didn’t have an engagement, he would still take responsibility.
After their conversation ended, Ye Ze didn’t ask Shen Ye what he was doing tomorrow and Shen Ye didn’t ask about Ye’s family. Although they had an engagement, they had just met for the first time and were like strangers, so it was not appropriate to talk too deeply and there was nothing much to talk about.
When they returned to the living room, the doctor had already finished examining Shen Ye’s grandmother. Shen Ye’s grandmother’s body was worn out and needed careful recuperation, so the doctor prescribed some tonifying and nourishing medicine. As for her legs, there was no hope for a cure. She would have to spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair.
Shen Ye felt a little uncomfortable after hearing this.
Ye Ze looked at him, patted his shoulder lightly, and said, “Take good care of your grandmother from now on.”
Shen Ye nodded with red eyes.
Afterward, Ye Ze took the prescription from the doctor and asked the servants to buy the medicine.
Shen Ye did not refuse Ye Ze’s kindness. He had no money now and his grandmother’s health could not wait, so he would owe Ye Ze for now. When he opened his fortune-telling business in a few days and had money, he would definitely pay Ye Ze back, including the money for the servants.
Dinner was made by the servants of the Ye family and surprisingly suited Shen Ye’s taste, especially the sour and spicy fish dish, which he ate most of it alone. He liked spicy food, but the original owner didn’t, so at first he was afraid that Grandma Shen would notice something unusual and didn’t dare to eat too much. However, Grandma Shen didn’t pay attention to these details, she was tired and soon went back to her room to rest. So Shen Ye ate with gusto.
Ye Ze didn’t eat spicy food. Watching Shen Ye eat with a red face and a bright red mouth, his eyes gradually became deep.
Shen Ye glanced at him and said, “Why are you looking at me? Just eat.”
The food was so delicious, it would be a shame not to finish it!
Ye Ze whispered, “Hmm, you eat.”
So Shen Ye ignored him and lay back on his chair, sighing comfortably after being full.
Ye Ze sat opposite him and felt like he was looking at a little cat lying on its back, waiting for its owner to pet it.
He couldn’t help but smile and said, “If you want to eat anything in the future, just tell the chef.”
Shen Ye looked at him with shining eyes and asked, “Really?”
“Yes,” the man smiled and nodded.
Shen Ye’s impression of him suddenly got better! Not only was he imposing with a purple aura, but he was also generous! Previously, Shen Ye felt that Ye Ze was too competitive, but now he thought, ‘No wonder he’s from the Ye family, so generous…’
That night, Ye Ze stayed as promised.
Shen Ye brought in a new bedsheet and comforter, knocked on the door, and said, “This is new. I had it aired out this afternoon. I hope you’ll like it.”
“Thank you,” said Ye Ze.
Shen Ye placed the comforter on the bed, and at this point, Ye Ze was standing by the bed. He silently moved closer, then took a deep breath.
Sure enough, the closer he got, the thicker the purple aura became, and the better the effect.
Shen Ye felt relaxed and comfortable for a moment and couldn’t help but move closer. He was so focused on inhaling that he didn’t realize he was almost burying his face in Ye Ze’s embrace.
Ye Ze’s eyes became deep and mysterious.
Was this boy… trying to seduce him?
At the age of thirty, Shen Ye was the first person to dare to seduce him. As the heir of the Ye family, he had naturally been pursued by many people since he was young, both men and women, but those people didn’t dare to disturb him face to face. He had a cold personality and even his family members were not very close to him.
This kid was not afraid of him and even showed a longing expression. It felt refreshing to him.
He stood still and didn’t move.
Shen Ye was satisfied after breathing in enough purple aura. He said, “Get some rest early, good night,” and then turned around and walked away without hesitation.
“…” Ye Ze was left behind.
Seduce and run away?
He felt self-deprecating1act of belittling or expressing disparagement about oneself and hooked his lips. He probably misunderstood. Even if he had a marriage agreement, this kid wouldn’t flirt with him right after they met.
Shen Ye didn’t know that his action of breathing in the purple aura had cast a pebble in Ye Ze’s heart.
He went back to his room and slept soundly. In his dream, he had opened a business and not only cleared the two million yuan breach of contract fee but also had enough money to hire someone to take care of his grandmother.
The next day, after breakfast, Shen Ye said to Ye Ze, “I need to go to the company.”
Ye Ze was elegantly drinking soy milk. When he heard this, he looked up and said, “Let the driver take you.”
Shen Ye shook his head, “No need to bother…”
Ye Ze interrupted him, “Listen to me.”
Shen Ye replied, “…okay, you’re the boss.”
Shen Ye’s grandmother had been resting in her room. Shen Ye brought breakfast to her before he left and specifically said goodbye to her. His grandmother thought he was going to retrieve the jade pendant, so she didn’t ask any further.
After getting in the car, Shen Ye took a good look at the interior decoration of the car. He couldn’t look too much yesterday when Ye Ze was with him. It was indeed a one-of-a-kind custom luxury car that was both beautiful and comfortable, and even had massage functions on the seats! It seems that his fiancé, who got the advantage, knows how to enjoy life.
An hour later, the car arrived at the Ba Jiao Entertainment Company building.
Ba Jiao Entertainment is one of the top entertainment companies in the industry, having trained many award-winning actors and actresses, and having even more popular celebrities. Shen Ye, who had no fame, was just a small transparent figure in the company.
However, this time, Shen Ye was not coming to the company as an artist. He was here to do fortune-telling.
He walked into the lobby and sent a WeChat message to Xu Sisi: “I’m here.”
Xu Sisi replied: “I’m busy now. Just go straight to President Shi’s office on the top floor.”
Shen put away his phone and headed towards the elevator.
He saw many popular actors and actresses along the way, but he thought none of them were as good-looking as Ye Ze. Of course, the purple aura surrounding Ye Ze was not something an ordinary person could have.
During this period, many artists and staff were also looking at him. After all, his drug addiction had caused a big stir and has not yet subsided.
Shen Ye ignored the stares and walked straight ahead.
As he passed by a female star, she suddenly called out to him, “Shen Ye?”
Shen Ye turned around.
The woman smirked and said, “Oh, it’s really you. How daring of you to still show your face at the company?”
This female star was Xiao Yiyi, who entered the company at the same time as Shen Ye and was also cast in the same drama as a supporting actress. Shen Ye was the eldest son of the Shen family, and she initially tried to curry favor with him. But Shen Ye was very cold towards her, which made her hold a grudge. Later, when she learned that Shen Ye had been kicked out of the family by his stepmother for having an affair, she began to openly antagonize him, occasionally giving him a hard time. Now she has even gotten close to a high-ranking executive in the company and walks around with an air of arrogance.
She didn’t bother to hide her mockery and said, “Weren’t you arrested for drug use?”
Shen Ye raised an eyebrow and replied, “I didn’t use drugs. You’re spreading rumors, and you’ll be held legally responsible for it.”
Xiao Yiyi didn’t expect him to talk back. In the past, she mocked him openly and in private, and he didn’t even dare to argue. She felt uncomfortable and her expression became even more sarcastic. “With your current appearance, you have the nerve to try and sue me?”
“I don’t need to sue you,” Shen Ye swept his gaze over her heavily made-up face, “Your prison uniform has signs of wear and tear, and even your heavy makeup can’t hide the thick black aura around you. You’re not far from being sued.”
Xiao Yiyi was taken aback, then angry. “What nonsense are you spouting? I’ll tear your mouth apart!”
She made a move as if to slap Shen Ye, but her agent standing next to her stopped her.
The agent warned her in a low voice, “Don’t be impulsive. Many people are watching you. Don’t give them any handle to use against you.”
Because she had gotten close to a high-ranking executive in the company and acted arrogantly, Xiao Yiyi had recently offended many artists in the company, and everyone was waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
Xiao Yiyi looked around and saw that everyone in the lobby was staring at her and Shen Ye, even a senior actor was paying attention to their situation. She took a deep breath and suppressed her anger, giving Shen Ye a fierce glare.
How could Shen Ye be afraid of her? He just smiled faintly and said, “Since we’ve met, let me give you a free prediction. You’ll be famous for another month at most, and by the end of next month, you’ll be caught up in a lawsuit.”
“You crazy person…” Xiao Yiyi began to curse, but Shen Ye interrupted her, “I’ll go now.”
The elevator arrived at that moment and he walked straight into it, leaving Xiao Yiyi behind.
Xiao Yiyi was so angry that her eyes went black. The staff around them pointed and talked, and the senior actor’s curious gaze made her feel like a thorn in her back.
She spat, “What are you looking at?”
I think I’ll just mass-produce the chapters only up to chapter 10 this week. Starting next week, I’ll be producing 1 chapter a day.
