Chapter 2047: Accident

Hearing Ye Yiren’s words, Ye Jie’s expression was as calm as a lake.

His deep and clear black eyes landed on her face with a trace of coldness and indifference, as if he did not care about her at all.

Ye Yiren’s heart ached.

She had seen his coldness and ruthlessness before.

She knew what kind of woman he liked. She could only let herself be more easygoing and not care so much about love.

At first, she did not know about Bo Cixue and him coming to the capital.

She thought that Bo Cixue would not be her obstruction, but after coming here to get to know her more, she felt a sense of danger.

He did not seem to ignore Bo Cixue as much as she thought.

“I was wrong to have found Sister Cixue that day.” Ye Yiren’s eyes were filled with tears, her true feelings showing. “I was just afraid. Actually, I never thought of breaking up with you. I still can’t let go of you.”

If another man saw her crying, his heart would definitely ache, but he was like a sculpture, cold and indifferent, his eyes even laced with coldness. “So what?”

Ye Yiren’s slender body swayed unsteadily and the hand holding the wine glass tightened. “Were… you moved by me?”His expression was cold. “You know why we were together.”

Ye Yiren closed her eyes. The dull pain in her heart spread to her limbs and her lips trembled slightly.

However, he ignored it and turned around to talk to the others.

Ye Yiren put down her wine glass and walked toward the washroom.

Turning on the tap, she splashed cold water on her face.

She stood there for a while and only walked out when someone called her from outside.

Mo Chuan stood outside the washroom and his heart ached when he saw Ye Yiren’s red and swollen eyes and pale lips. “Do you care about him that much?”

Ye Yiren bit her lip and said nothing.

Mo Chuan frowned. “I really feel terrible seeing you like this.”

Ye Yiren replied, “He’s the dream I’ve been pursuing all my life.”

“I understand.”…

The celebration party was held in a luxurious castle on the outskirts.

The guests were all from high society.

There were eight people in the medical team and Ye Jie presented them with certificates one by one.

Mo Chuan stood at the back of the line and secretly applied a drug developed by him to his palm. This drug could seep into the blood through the skin and cause a hallucination.

If there was no antidote, it would be hard for ordinary people to get through it.

After the award ceremony, Mo Chuan paid attention to Ye Yiren and Ye Jie’s every move.

Ye Yiren was in a bad mood and drank a lot.

A room had been prepared for them in the castle. After Ye Yiren drank too much, she went upstairs to rest.

Mo Chuan hurriedly followed and took out a master key, helping Ye Yiren enter Ye Jie’s room.

Ye Jie would probably come up soon!…

Ye Yiren lay on the bed and in her daze, she saw a tall figure walking over.

Under the orange soft light, that person’s eyes were dark, his nose tall, his lips thin, and his face handsome and cold.

Who else could it be but Ye Jie?

Ye Yiren blinked, thinking that she was hallucinating.

“Why are you in my room?”

The man said nothing and staggered, his slender fingers caressing her cheek. “Why can’t I be here?”

His voice was low and hoarse.

Ye Yiren’s heart fluttered.

It was the voice that captivated her the most. How many times had it appeared in her dreams, making her unable to sleep at night?

Ye Yiren rubbed her cheek against his palm and hot tears fell. “I’m sorry. I didn’t want our relationship to become so stiff either.”“I stayed away from you all these years because I was afraid that we would become strangers.”

He knelt on one knee on the bed, his fingers wiping her tears away. “How could that be? I still have you in my heart.”

She jumped into his arms.

“I’ve been waiting for you to say this for many years.” Her tears fell like rain. “I’ve always pretended to be carefree and not care, but I actually didn’t want to be hurt first. I never forgot you…”

The man who was kneeling on one knee on the bed cupped her tear-filled face, lowered his head, and kissed away those tears.

Neither of them spoke anymore and they hugged each other tightly.

His fingers were very hot.

He reached out and turned off the bedside lamp.

“Yiren, I missed you…”

…

Ye Yiren woke up in the darkness.Seeming to have thought of something, she reached out and touched her side.

The man was no longer by her side and she got up from the bed.

The bathroom was lit gently and the figure inside was moving.

She smiled.

Putting on her clothes hurriedly, she opened the door and went to her room.

“Eh, Miss Ye?”

Ye Yi looked up and glanced at the man who had called her. A blush appeared on her face. “Young Master Luo.” After greeting each other, she left quickly.

Luo Zhou looked at the room Ye Yi had just come out from and frowned.

…

The next morning.

Ye Yiren woke up. She changed, put on makeup, and went downstairs to make breakfast before bringing it to Ye Jie’s room.

She raised her hand and knocked on the door.

She knocked a few times before she heard movements from inside.

Ye Jie opened the door in his bathrobe, his hair wet.

There was a faint shadow under his eyes and his eyes were bloodshot. It was obvious that he had not slept well.

“I made breakfast. You were tired last night. Eat something!”

Ye Jie looked at Ye Yiren with a frown. “Didn’t I express myself clearly enough yesterday?”

Ye Yiren thought about what happened last night. Her eyelashes lowered and fluttered lightly. “I know you still care about me. I’ll be very sensible in the future. When I return to my country, I’ll ask my parents to come and discuss our matters with the King and Queen…”

Ye Jie interrupted her coldly. “Miss Ye, I have nothing to do with you anymore, let alone in the future.”

Ye Jie’s expression darkened. He had never thought that Ye Yiren was such a delusional woman.

When Ye Yi heard Ye Jie’s words, the tray in her hands fell to the ground.

This commotion woke the guests who were resting in the castle last night.

Many people opened their doors and looked over.

Ye Jie pursed his pale lips. “Miss Ye, please respect yourself.”

Judging from Ye Yiren’s reaction, she must have something to do with his abnormal behavior last night.

Ye Yi could not stand such a drastic change in her attitude from last night. She acted like she did not see the guests who were poking their heads out and her voice became sharp. “Ye Jie, although you’re cold, I didn’t think you were a bad person with bad character, but you…”

“What about me?”

“Must I be so frank about what you did last night?”
