Chapter 52: His Concern

Ye Juemo didn’t miss Yan Xiruo’s lowering of head and touching of wrist. His deep eyes squinted and he sized her up from head to toe.

Seeing that she was wearing his black shirt, he rubbed his thin lips tightly.

The black shirt made her skin even whiter and smoother. Her face that was flushed red was like a ripe peach that gave off sweetness and fragrance. Just one look and people couldn’t help but want to give it a bite.

His gaze was so strong and passionate that it was impossible for Yan Xiruo to ignore. She lifted her long eyelashes. Seeing that his cold gaze was on her body, her heart trembled slightly.

Her small and fair-skinned hands tugged uneasily at the black shirt on her body. She stuttered and explained, “I… came out to find someone. You tore my T-shirt, so I put on your clothes…” Seeing how he had used a handkerchief to wipe his hands previously, she guessed that he must be someone with OCD. She had worn his clothes. He wouldn’t break both her arms, right?

Ye Juemo went to the third floor as he had seen the view of Yan Xiruo’s back at the banquet hall previously. After that, he learned from the bodyguard that she was trying to enter to find Chu Keren.

He lifted her firm chin and pointed to the luxury goods store. “Do you want to buy a gown?”

Yan Xiruo shook her head. “No…” The gowns inside cost at least a five-digit figure. She couldn’t afford to buy them at all.

Ye Juemo seemed to have seen through Yan Xiruo’s thoughts. He grabbed her wrist and pulled her into the store.

“Mr. Ye, I really don’t need to buy a gown…” She broke free of his big hand and looked into his dark and narrow eyes. She said carefully, “Can you help me call out Chu Keren from the banquet hall? She should be by Lu Jingchen’s side…”


“No,” he said coldly.

Yan Xiruo’s nose turned sour. She didn’t expect him to be unwilling to help her when it was just a simple request.


She felt aggrieved in her heart and didn’t want to say anything further to him. She turned around and left in disappointment.

Perhaps she was feeling unwell. That was why she was feeling especially vulnerable and helpless now!

Ye Juemo looked at Yan Xiruo’s slender and lonely figure, and his sword-like eyebrows frowned slightly. He stepped forward quickly and stopped in front of her, blocking her way.

Looking at her pale face, he clasped her slender shoulders with his big palms. He asked in a low voice, “Where are you feeling unwell?”

Yan Xiruo bit her lips and refused to look at him. “That’s none of your business.”

“I’ll ask you again. Where are you feeling unwell?!” His cold, strong, and overbearing tone made Yan Xiruo shiver.

Yan Xiruo didn’t know what was going on with her. Every time she met him, she would be in an especially sorry state. She sniffed and let out in a low roar with her eyes red, “What business is it of Mr. Ye that I’m feeling unwell?” Even if she had to be beaten to death, she couldn’t let a male stranger know that her period was here and that she was in need of a sanitary pad.

A glimmer of cold light flashed past Ye Juemo’s dark eyes. His handsome face became sinister-looking. He grabbed Yan Xiruo’s chin and his lips curved into a cold arc. “Woman, it looks like I have shaped you to be arrogant and willful. No one has dared to provoke my anger again and again in a long time.”

His body was radiating a chilling coldness.

Yan Xiruo thought of how cruel he was to Lili and was afraid he would treat her that way as well. Based on the principle of “A wise man knows when to retreat,” she became thick-skinned and said softly, “My stomach’s not feeling well and I wanted to find my sister-in-law to see if she has something that a woman needs…” She really couldn’t utter the words “sanitary pad.”
