Catching the surprised look in Ye Mingmei’s eyes, he got playful, reached out to clasp the back of her head, pulled her toward him, and raised his phone, snapping a photo of the two of them together.

Ye Mingmei quickly shook his hand off. Before she could understand what he was doing, she saw Yu Xiuzhun had already set the photo he just took as her phone wallpaper.

"This is my phone!"

"That’s why I’m putting my photo on it, so everyone knows you’re taken." Yu Xiuzhun raised an eyebrow and shot her a cold, fierce look. "And to remind you, if you ever dare get tangled up with another man behind my back, I’ll choke you!"

"..."

Ye Mingmei’s body stiffened. She felt he was clearly hinting at Jin Chenye with those words, but she didn’t dare respond.

Fine, let him change it. Once he’s not looking, she’ll switch it back to her own photo.

"If you dare change the wallpaper, next time I’ll put on something you wouldn’t even dare to look at." Yu Xiuzhun seemed to see right through her intentions and warned her in a lukewarm tone.

Ye Mingmei trembled all over.

Taking back her phone, she didn’t even dare to speak.

"Have you packed everything?" Yu Xiuzhun glanced at her and asked indifferently.

"Not yet." Ye Mingmei stood up, took the towel to the bathroom, and only then returned to the room to start packing her things.

She didn’t actually bring much; many things she bought when Jin Chenye accompanied her shopping earlier.

She simply sorted them out and filled an entire table.

"Apart from clothes and documents, throw all this away." Yu Xiuzhun picked up a light yellow silk scarf with his long fingers, his gaze cold and harsh.

"I went to a lot of effort to get these, why should I throw them away? I really like them." Ye Mingmei glared at him angrily, unable to accept his domineering demand.

"Is it because the things are too good, or because the person who bought them with you is too good, that you can’t bear to throw them away?" Yu Xiuzhun turned around, the cold, fierce look in his eyes as if he would tear her in half.

Just thinking about how she spent an entire day shopping with Jin Chenye made him furious enough to strangle her.

And now she dared to say she wanted to take these things back right in front of him.

Like hell he would agree!

"Why do you have to bring him into everything? He was just kind enough to accompany me, and I spent my own money on these. I bought them myself, so why should I throw them away? Yu Xiuzhun, I like them a lot; they’re hard-to-find pieces of art that I wanted to take back to give to my mother. I don’t want to throw them away."

Ye Mingmei felt a bit wronged, reaching out to protect the gifts in front of her.

"For your mother?" Yu Xiuzhun’s eyes flickered, and he let go.

With a prideful raise of his eyebrow, "Fine, this time I’ll let it go. If you want to take them, take them. But if this happens again, I’ll make you regret it."

"..."

Sometimes, this man’s thoughts were really hard to figure out.

Ye Mingmei didn’t think much more, afraid Yu Xiuzhun would change his mind, and hurriedly packed all her luggage, finally letting out a long sigh of relief as she sat on the suitcase to rest.

In her haste, she broke into a light sweat, and the beads of sweat on her forehead soaked her bangs.

Ye Mingmei, feeling dry and thirsty, was just about to get some water when she saw Yu Xiuzhun already holding a glass of water out to her.

"You’ve drunk from it." Ye Mingmei muttered softly, eyeing the half glass of water with disdain. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"You dare to dislike me?" Yu Xiuzhun furrowed his brow, his gaze deepening. "We’ve already kissed, so what if we share a drink?"

"..."

Forget it, trying to reason with Yu Xiuzhun would only result in more shameless words.
