Thinking of Ye Mingmei’s astonishment when she first saw him, it was as if she didn’t know he had arrived in Paris. Did she think she saw a ghost that night?

"I had something come up the morning before yesterday, so I left early." Yu Xiuzhun suddenly spoke up.

"...What do you mean you left early?"

Ye Mingmei was a bit confused and looked up at him in shock.

Where he went for his business had nothing to do with her.

As long as he wasn’t dead, she didn’t want to know about his affairs at all.

"If you dare to get dead drunk with another man again, I’ll strangle you!" Yu Xiuzhun added coldly, obviously settling scores after the fact.

Thinking of how she was completely knocked out drunk that day made him furious.

If she was that drunk, forget Jin Chenye, any random man could have taken advantage of her, and she probably wouldn’t have reacted.

"I didn’t go out drinking with anyone..." Ye Mingmei instinctively began to rebut but suddenly froze.

Something flashed through her mind, and she looked at Yu Xiuzhun in shock.

"How do you know I got drunk?"

"Even if you hide away in Paris, don’t think you can escape my eyes." Yu Xiuzhun raised an eyebrow and curled his lips coldly.

"..."

Ye Mingmei’s eyes froze, unspeakable fear spreading within her heart. Then she remembered something and suddenly grabbed his collar, "You were in Paris all along, weren’t you?"

"Otherwise, how do you think I could have shown up so timely? Just when you and Jin Chenye were about to do something, wasn’t I right there to take his place?" Yu Xiuzhun patted her pale cheek with his large hand.

"You were so obedient that night, holding onto me and begging not to stop."

"..."

With a bang, it was like a thunderbolt exploded in Ye Mingmei’s mind.

The color drained from her face in an instant.

What was Yu Xiuzhun saying?

"It was you that night?!" Ye Mingmei’s lips parted slightly, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Yu Xiuzhun said he had been in Paris for a while. If the person with her that drunken night was him, why did Jin Chenye apologize to her?

"Who else did you think it was?" Yu Xiuzhun’s handsome face showed a shadowy light, carrying a demon-like enchantment, and he locked his gaze firmly on her, gnashing his teeth.

"Did you think it was Jin Chenye?"

"..."

"Or deep down, did you hope it was Jin Chenye?!" Yu Xiuzhun got even more furious at the thought of this possibility.

He glared fiercely at Ye Mingmei. If she dared say it was him, he would strangle her without hesitation!

"It was really you..."

Ye Mingmei’s mind was completely muddled. Facing Yu Xiuzhun’s questioning, she didn’t know how to react at all.

There was resentment, but more so, a sense of relief.

She didn’t need to worry about how to face Jin Chenye; after all, nothing happened between them.

"Great, you don’t even know who your man is, yet you dare lie to me saying nothing happened between you and Jin Chenye!" Yu Xiuzhun’s eyes darkened as he increased the strength of his grip, causing Ye Mingmei to cry out in pain.

Trying to escape, the difference in strength between them was vast, and her struggle was only in vain.

In the end, she could only cry out in grievance.

"Shut up, no crying!"

Yu Xiuzhun furrowed his brows and roared when he saw the tears rolling down from the corners of her eyes. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

His long fingers slightly loosened as he glared at her harshly, his eyes looking like they wanted to devour her.

"Wah—"

Ye Mingmei, already feeling wronged, burst into loud sobs as soon as he yelled at her.

Within half a minute, she was sobbing and gasping for air, unable to catch her breath.

She was wracked with sobs all over.

"Ye Mingmei..."
