Lu Zhi tilted his head, his lips curling slightly. “Miss Xiao, do you always speak in this tone when you’re with your close friend’s man?”

Her voice could practically turn honey-dripping sweet.

He hated pretentious girls the most.

Xiao Yeyu was momentarily stunned, then she said with a trace of grievance, “I was born with this voice, I can’t change it. Mr. Lu, if you don’t like it, I won’t speak.”

She lightly bit her lower lip, looking pitiful.

This kind of demeanor could trigger most men’s protective instincts.

But Lu Zhi didn’t like this type of girl. He preferred someone like Jiang Yining!

Even without relying on a man, she could shine on her own, illuminating everyone around her!

Lu Zhi was disgusted by Xiao Yeyu.

However, since she was Yining’s friend, he did not nitpick anymore.

Lu Zhi felt quite averse to Xiao Yeyu, but considering she was a friend of Jiang Yining, he didn’t pick a fight.

Silently, he continued walking.

If it were someone else, after being told off by Lu Zhi like that, they would have left in anger. But not Xiao Yeyu. She kept following him.

After searching for a while, Lu Zhi stopped a waiter and asked if they had seen Ye Xiaoxi.

The waiter might not remember Jiang Yining, but tonight’s center was unforgettable.

“I saw Miss Xiaoxi. She went toward the artificial hill over there,” the waiter pointed in the direction.

Lu Zhi nodded and said, “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome, sir.”

Lu Zhi continued walking towards the artificial hill.

The Yuan family’s estate was built on the mountainside, with all the guests concentrated in the front. There were few people in the garden.

As Xiao Yeyu followed Lu Zhi deeper into the estate, the surroundings grew quieter.

She could even hear the rustling of leaves in the wind.

She pretended to look scared, hugged her own arms, and leaned closer to Lu Zhi.

“Mr. Lu, this place is so remote. 1 don’t think Jiang Yining and Xiaoxi would come here. Shall we…?”

She was interrupted mid-sentence as she stumbled.

Her body moved uncontrollably, lunging towards Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi didn’t have time to evade and found himself wrapped around her waist, his brows furrowing tightly.

Xiao Yeyu held onto his slim yet strong waist, a mixture of shyness and hesitation in her voice as she hesitated to let go. “I’m sorry, Mr. Lu. There are so many rocks here, and I, I wasn’t paying attention.”

“Let go.”

Lu Zhi’s voice remained unwavering, his expression colder than ice.

“I’d like to let go too, but 1 can’t stand up on my own. Could you please help me to the hall?” Xiao Yeyu said boldly.

Lu Zhi gazed steadily at her, his hand resting on her wrist.

Xiao Yeyu felt a smug satisfaction within herself.

She had spent so long studying to marry into a wealthy family. She knew deep down that there wasn’t a man in this world who wasn’t fickle, and domestic flowers could never compete with wild ones.

Lu Zhi’s dedication to Jiang Yining was just because they were still in the honeymoon phase. When that fervor faded, so would their relationship.

Xiao Yeyu had confidence in her own allure.

But…

Before she could revel in her triumph for more than two seconds, in the next instant, Lu Zhi forcefully pulled his arm away from her grip.

Without waiting for her to react, he took a step back, allowing her to fall face-first onto the stone floor.

Xiao Yeyu couldn’t help but feel dazed. After a moment’s pause, she touched her throbbing nose and stood up, her voice quivering as she asked, “Mr. Lu, if you don’t want to help me, there’s no need to treat me this way, is there?”

“I can see that your feet are perfectly fine, with no issues.”

Lu Zhi’s tone was unyielding.

It was then that Xiao Yeyu remembered she had just claimed to have injured her foot.

She felt a mix of embarrassment and humiliation.

After a moment of silence…

She decided to lay it all on the line, tears streaming down her face as she said, “I’m sorry, I did lie to you. But I couldn’t control myself. Lu Zhi, from the moment I first saw you, 1 was deeply drawn to you. To get closer to you, I had my father collaborate with you. To catch even one more glimpse of you, I endured heartache and became friends with Jiang Yining.”

“You don’t understand, every time I saw how well you treated Jiang Yining, 1 was consumed by jealousy. Lu Zhi, I’m not asking you to love me, and I don’t want to ruin your relationship with Jiang Yining. I just want a bit of your affection, even if it’s only as your secret lover. I’m willing.”

Xiao Yeyu took two steps forward, holding Lu Zhi’s hand.

“I’m pure, I’ve never been intimate with a man before. Lu Zhi, please, be my first.”

She wanted to place his hand on her cheek but was met with another forceful rejection.

“Could you be any more despicable?” Lu Zhi couldn’t hide his disgust. “Xiao Yeyu, a woman like you makes me sick. If you were smart, you’d stay far away from Jiang Yining.. Otherwise, I’ll make sure your entire Xiao family pays the price for your actions!”
