Judging by the baffled look on the womanâs face, it must have never occurred to her that the more obediently she behaved before him and the more willing she was to share things and be forthcoming with him, the more easily she could gain his trust and make him feel at ease.
...
âXiao Ruo, what happened to you yesterday?â asked Ji Sichen anxiously as soon as Ye Erruo stepped into the bar.
âNothing.â
âThen why...â
The corners of her lips twitched. She truly did not know how she should explain this to him, as she could not possibly tell him that her husband had taken her cell phone and deliberately made him worry out of jealousy.
âI left my phone at my friendâs place yesterday.â
That had him wondering askance. She left her phone at her friendâs place?
âOh, yeah. Do you know that Gu Feirou became a part of the Blue Tower Royalty while I was away? I only realized that news of her was plastered all over the Internet when I came back.â
âI havenât got a clue where this piece of news came from overnight.â
âWell, sheâs bound to have quite a headache after the farce I pulled at her engagement yesterday.â
Her lips curled up when she recalled what had happened yesterday. Iâm sure sheâs thrilled with the gift I gave her yesterday.
Newlywed? Royal princess? Ha! How blissful she must be! I really must send her congratulations.
A week later, Ye Erruo and Yao Tiao met up at a coffee shop.
âAre you truly with Young Master Mo?â Her eyes shone brightly as she stared at the other girl.
âYep.â
âAre you two living together?â
âYep.â
Yao Tiao then propped her chin on her hands and lazily asked a few questions that made the corners of her friendâs lips twitch. âJust drink your coffee.â
A smirk spread on her face. âThatâs lightning speed.â
â...â
âHey! Oh, right.... What the hell!â Her eyes bulged in incredulity as she stared somewhere behind her friend.
âWhatâs wrong?â
She blinked. âXiao Ruo, I think I just saw your twin sister.â
âTwin sister?â With a puzzled frown, Ye Erruo turned her head back. However, she saw no such person after scanning her surroundings for a long time.
âWas I mistaken? Thatâs not right...â mumbled her baffled friend.
âWhat are you talking about?â
âI just saw your doppelgänger leave! I thought she was your twin!â
âYour vision must be impaired. I donât have any siblings.â
âB-But you two looked like peas in a pod.â Yao Tiao refused to believe that her vision was impaired.
âYour coffeeâs getting cold. Drink it quickly and Iâll take you to the bar. Iâll no longer be doing live-streams. I will be focusing on singing live at the bar instead.â
...
âYouâre back?â
Inside a room, a man was sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed. His somber back was facing the person who had just opened the door.
âBrother Xuan.â
He looked past his shoulder to glance at the woman standing before him. How similar they look. She looks so much like her.
âWhat did you call me?â
âBrother Xuan.â
With a curl of his lips, he slowly got to his feet. The man, who was half a head taller than her, lifted her chin and looked down at that familiar face with scrutiny.
âRemember: Your name is Ye Xiaoruo from now on.â
âNoted. Iâll go by the name Xiao Ruo from now on.â
Lin Jingxuan nodded his head in satisfaction.
âBrother Jingxuan, I wanna be married to you and be with you for the rest of my life.â
A great sense of satisfaction seized him upon meeting the fake Ye Erruoâs eyes again.
âWill you help me deal with Mo Jiangye and seize his power?â
âI will. Xiao Ruo will definitely help Brother Jingxuan become the person with all the power in the Lin Family.â Each of her movements and infatuated looks was so familiar that it made his eyes glow with a strange light.
