Despite Ye Junqingâs aversion to womenâs clothing, he entered the bathroom and rinsed his body under the shower. He then grabbed a clean towel from the rack to dry himself off before returning to the bedroom.
Noticing that he was wear nothing at all, Ye Xingguang blushed and said, âPut on my sleeping clothes.â
Ye Junqing ignored her.
With her eyes darting everywhere but him, Ye Xingguang asked, âYou wonât put it on, really?â
âYeah, Iâm comfortable with myself and not paranoid, unlike some people,â he retorted coldly.
Grabbing a pillow, Ye Xingguang threw it at him, shrieking, âGet out!â
Catching the pillow, Ye Junqing stared at her with his deep, icy eyes, âDo you actually expect me to leave like this?â
âI gave you my pajamas, and you refused to wear them. How is that my problem?â
Having said this, Ye Xingguang yanked the door open, but Ye Junqing immediately grasped her hand, exclaiming, âIâm not leaving!â
âIâm not leaving!â he repeated.
âIf youâre not leaving, then I am. Let me go!â
In an instant, Ye Junqingâs face darkened as if a storm was about to hit, âWhere are you going?â
âTo another room.â
This response ignited Ye Junqingâs rage, âAre you going to sleep with Li Yu?â
Infuriated, tears welled up in Ye Xingguangâs eyes as she glared at him, âWatch your mouth. Who said I was sleeping with Li Yu? Weâve been innocent childhood friends and nothing else. Stop imagining things with your filthy mind!â
âImagining things? Had I not rushed here tonight, you would have spent the whole night in his arms. Ye Xingguang, donât take me for a fool. If you dare sleep with him again, I will have him minced!â
âI didnât spend the night in his arms! You bastard, itâs a wonder why lightning hasnât struck you dead!â
Furious and exasperated, Ye Xingguang, pointing at her clothes ruined by him, retorted, âI was merely going to get you a clean shirt from my dadâs room. It was only because Li Yu had nowhere to sleep that I let him use the guest room. Can your mind stop being so dirty?â
âGuest room? Heâs in the guest room?â
âWhat else?â
Unconvinced, Ye Junqing recalled that it was her room he had previously seen; he asked, âSo, where is your room?â
Rolling her eyes, Ye Xingguang answered, âIsnât it this one?â
Ye Junqing said nothing, his deep gaze scanning the room, the vanity, her pink sheets, and the wardrobe.
Approaching the wardrobe, he discovered it was filled with her clothes. Was this really her room and Li Yu was sleeping in the guest room? It contradicted his previous assumptions.
But it didnât matter. What was important was that she hadnât betrayed him to share a bed with Li Yu as he had feared!
Some of the gloom clouding Ye Junqingâs mind began to dissipate, he fixed his dark gaze on her and asked, âDid you truthfully not sleep with Li Yu tonight?â
Enraged by his question, Ye Xingguang pointed at the door, âGet out, right now! If you distrust me so much, I donât want to see you!â
Unmoved, Ye Junqing casually sat on the edge of the bed. His melancholy didnât entirely vanish âI donât trust you. The moment Li Yu left, you followed him. Did you think Li Yu is your husband, that you had to chase after him?â
Now even angrier, a fiery light flashed in Ye Xingguangâs eyes, âWho was chasing him? I returned home, traveling a long distance, all for you!â
