Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The hair on her head was pulled forcefully, and waves of pain assaulted her. Chi Yaoxi clenched her teeth, anger surging within her. This was the first time she had been beaten up so ruthlessly!
Since Chi Jiaojiao was so unreasonable, she had nothing to worry about.
Chi Yaoxi quickly stretched out her arm and pinched Chi Jiaojiao’s wrist with all her strength. Chi Jiaojiao grimaced in pain and immediately let go. “It hurts! Let go, let go!”
Chi Yaoxi suddenly let go of Chi Jiaojiao’s arm and glared at her coldly. “Behave yourself!”
She originally thought that Chi Jiaojiao would stop, but who knew that she would take advantage of Chi Yaoxi’s carelessness and pounce on her again, stretching out her long nails to grab Chi Yaoxi’s face. “You b*tch! Let’s see how you’re going to seduce men after I rip your face apart! How are you going to become a superstar?!”
This time, Chi Yaoxi was prepared. She stared coldly at Chi Jiaojiao who was pouncing at her and waved her arm forcefully to block her demonic claws.
Chi Yaoxi could not take it anymore, but she could not openly retaliate in front of so many people outside. She turned around and walked straight to the washroom at the side.
As expected, Chi Jiaojiao chased after her.
As soon as she entered the room, Chi Yaoxi gave her a flying kick and kicked her hard to the ground. She held her stomach for a long time and could not get up.
“There’s nothing between us anymore. I won’t give in to you in the future. Remember, don’t ever provoke me again!”
Chi Jiaojiao’s resentful little eyes were still fixed on Chi Yaoxi. Chi Yaoxi refused to admit defeat and directly took out her eyebrow trimming knife from her bag.
“Looks like I’ll have to leave some souvenirs for you to remember.”
Upon seeing this scene, Chi Jiaojiao was so frightened that she closed her eyes tightly. Her face was pale and her body trembled as she curled up in a corner. She didn’t dare to move and let Chi Yaoxi do whatever she wanted.
Chi Yaoxi cut Chi Jiaojiao’s long hair with her eyebrow trimming knife. In the end, her hair was uneven. Her entire head looked like it was bitten by a dog.
“Chi Jiaojiao, I’m warning you! If you dare to cause trouble again, I’ll beat you up every time I see you!” Chi Yaoxi looked at Chi Jiaojiao coldly. After she finished speaking, she turned around and left the washroom.
After getting on the elevator, Chi Yaoxi composed herself. She was prepared to have a good rest as soon as she returned to the hotel room.
“You’re back?” A familiar voice came from nearby.
Chi Yaoxi looked up and the unhappiness from earlier instantly vanished. “Xiao Ye!”?When did this guy return??He was her best friend during her university days. He was now the CEO of a large design company and was developing well.
“Surprise, I’m back!” When Xiao Ye saw Chi Yaoxi, he had a bright smile on his face. He rushed up with a large bouquet of flowers and wanted to hug her.
Chi Yaoxi took the flowers and glanced at Xiao Ye. After avoiding his embrace, she smiled and patted him. “What’s wrong with you? You want to hug the moment we meet?”
Xiao Ye did not feel embarrassed. Still grinning, he followed Chi Yaoxi into the room. “I’ve stayed abroad for too long. I’m used to greeting people like this.”
It had been a long time since they last met. This guy looked even more handsome and interesting than before.
During their university days, Xiao Ye was the idol of many girls. He was tall, handsome, and had an active personality. He was also the president of the student union. At the annual New Year’s Gala, Xiao Ye played the guitar and sang, winning the hearts of many girls.
Now, his skin was still fair and delicate, his facial features were well-defined, and his eyes were bright. His eyelashes were long and curled up, making him look extremely handsome.
Chi Yaoxi called for Xiao Ye to sit on the sofa. “How did you find this place?”
Xiao Ye smiled and narrowed his crescent eyes. “We probably have telepathy.”
Chi Yaoxi pursed her lips and handed him a bottle of mineral water. This guy really hadn’t changed at all. He still liked to tease people when he spoke. “Drink some water. This is all I have. Don’t mind it, President.”
Xiao Ye took the water and took a big gulp. He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Chi Yaoxi with a satisfied expression. “Tsk, the water handed over by great beauties is sweet.”
“Cut it out. Why did you suddenly come looking for me? Is there something important?” Chi Yaoxi smiled as she glanced at Xiao Ye and asked.
Speaking of serious matters, Xiao Ye’s expression became slightly serious. “Are you interested in joining my company? The company is preparing to cooperate with overseas companies and needs funds.”
Chi Yaoxi didn’t say anything. She directly opened her handbag and handed her bank card to Xiao Ye. “It’s still the same password.”
Xiao Ye laughed with interest. “Aren’t you afraid that I’ll cheat you? You haven’t even seen the contract yet.”
“This is my dowry.” Chi Yaoxi glared at Xiao Ye, smiled, and reached out her hand, giving him a hard slap on the shoulder. “If you lose all this money, I’ll break your legs.”
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. Both of them looked up at the same time. When she opened the door, Chi Yaoxi was stunned.
It was Li Qianming.
This person had just sent her back to the hotel in the afternoon. Why was he here at this time? And he was carrying something in his hand. Could it be that he had to return a gift after receiving a ‘wedding gift’?
Chi Yaoxi felt inexplicably guilty and embarrassed.
“It’s so late…” Before Chi Yaoxi could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Li Qianming. His deep black eyes glanced into the room, and in his cold tone, there seemed to be some tension and oppression.
“Since you have a guest, I won’t disturb you any further. This is the cake that Chenchen asked me to bring over for you. He made it himself during baking class today.” 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m
Chi Yaoxi took the cake, feeling nervous and awkward. She even forgot to say a polite ‘thank you’. She noticed that Li Qianming and Xiao Ye stared at each other, but both remained silent.
Chi Yaoxi noticed that the man’s cold face was turning colder and colder, as if he was scrutinizing her. Chi Yaoxi felt uncomfortable all over, as if she had been caught red-handed.
Xiao Ye saw Chi Yaoxi and the man standing there for a long time. They did not speak or move. After thinking for a while, he directly walked forward. He naturally put his arm around Chi Yaoxi’s shoulder and asked with a smile, “Yaoxi, why don’t you introduce us?”
In her heart, Chi Yaoxi understood Xiao Ye’s way of doing things. When the two of them were in university, their relationship was as good as brothers. When they went out to do things together, they would often put their arms around each other’s shoulders. She was accustomed to this type of action.
But today, Li Qianming was standing at the door, and the coldness in his deep eyes seemed to have intensified. Chi Yaoxi felt weird and unnatural. 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄o𝐦
Li Qianming coldly stared at Xiao Ye’s hand on the woman’s shoulder. Hearing the man’s question, he turned around and left.
Judging from his expression, he should be angry, right??Chi Yaoxi turned around and slapped Xiao Ye’s hand. “You’d better take it easy from now on. I’m a popular female star right now, so don’t ruin me with a scandal.”
