Late at night.

  A slender and clean figure strode out.

  He did not let Ah Zuo and Ah You help him.

  There was an undeniable intoxication on his handsome face.

  Ye Xuan, who was following beside him, seemed to be more drunk than he was.

  “Something happened to my second sister here. Although it’s an accident, you still didn’t protect her properly.” Ye Xuan looked drunkenly at the god-like man beside him.” Let’s continue drinking tomorrow. We’ll drink until I’m satisfied.”


  Ye Jie smirked faintly. “I’ll play along.”


  “How generous!”


  Ye Xuan was helped into another car.

  It was only after Ye Xuan left that Ye Jie got on his personal car.

  More than ten black sedans left slowly.

  Bo Cixue’s hands gripped the steering wheel tightly. She could tell at one glance that he had really drunk too much.

  His glass-like dark eyes were slightly red, his thin lips slightly pursed, revealing the discomfort in his stomach.

  Everyone was paying for her mistake.

  However, she was sitting here perfectly fine.

  Bo Cixue closed her eyes and turned the car around.

  Ye Jie’s vehicle had just left when he suddenly seemed to have felt something and opened his eyes, glancing outside.

  He furrowed his eyebrows slightly as his slightly drunk voice was a little hoarse. “Go to the hotel Ye Xuan is staying at.”


  Ah Zuo did not understand, but did not dare to disobey.

  He hurriedly informed the vehicle to head toward Ye Xuan’s hotel.

  …


  Bo Cixue got off the car and went to the front desk to get a key card to a room on the top floor.

  She took the elevator to the top floor.

  There were only two rooms on the top floor and Ye Xuan was in one.

  There were two bodyguards guarding the door. Bo Cixue took a deep breath and was about to walk over when suddenly, a man wearing a hat and a black jacket walked over, put his arm around her shoulders and quickly brought her to a room opposite.

  Bo Cixue’s heart skipped a beat. She was about to push the man’s hand away when she smelled the faint smell of alcohol mixed with the smell of sourness.

  Brother Xiaojie?

  “Who are you guys?”


  Ye Xuan’s bodyguards stared at the two of them carefully.

  Ye Jie looked at the room in Bo Cixue’s hand and lowered his voice by her ear. “Open the door.”


  His breath tickled her ear, making her lose her ability to think.

  Ye Jie took the room card from her and entered the suite before the two bodyguards walked over.

  Ye Jie put the hat on the cupboard and walked toward the living room.

  Bo Cixue looked at his back and knew that he was angry.

  “I know about my condition, but I did something wrong. I don’t need you to take responsibility…”


  Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Ye Jie’s cold voice. “Do you know the consequences if you go and confess to Ye Xuan now? Cixue, nothing is absolute in this world. There are many things in this world where we can’t differentiate between right and wrong.”


  “You’re innocent by nature. If you were conscious, you definitely wouldn’t do anything to harm others. This isn’t your fault. If you go and look for Ye Xuan now, the situation will worsen to an irreparable state. Have you thought about what Uncle and Auntie Yan would do?”


  “I will handle this matter and find the best doctor to treat Ye Qingcheng. You don’t have to feel guilty. I will handle it for you.”


  A layer of moisture covered her eyes. “What if Princess Qingcheng wakes up?”


  “Then, you will be my Princess Consort. What can she do to you?”


  “What?”


  Bo Cixue took a few steps back in disbelief.

  She had not heard what he had said to the Queen that night, but she could guess some of it…


  “Brother Xiaojie, you don’t like me.”


  Ye Jie looked at Bo Cixue and said calmly, “We can develop our relationship after marriage.”


  Really? Could it be developed?

  He had not liked her since she was young, so how could he suddenly develop feelings for her?

  “Brother Xiaojie, you don’t have to be like this…”


  The tall man walked up to her, his pretty hands pressing on her slightly trembling shoulders. “Cixue…”


  Before he could finish, she took a big step back.

  “Brother Xiaojie, I won’t go look for Ye Xuan anymore. But I’ll treat it as thought I didn’t hear what you said tonight.” Bo Cixue pulled open the door and left hurriedly.

  …


  She locked herself at home for three days.

  Until Bo Jingyu forced his way in.

  “Sister, you stay at home every day. Aren’t you bored?” Bo Jingyu looked at Bo Cixue, who was sitting by the window reading. Although she went downstairs on time for meals, he still saw that she had lost some weight on her face.

  “You’ve been too abnormal recently. You didn’t bring me out to play during the weekends. Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone that my sister actually knows how to climb trees, boxing, racing, and teasing innocent women…”


  Bo Jingyu had not finished speaking when he was hit in the face by the bolster thrown by Bo Cixue.

  “Sister, Brother-in-law was hospitalized. Dad and Mom and I will go to the Royal Hospital. Isn’t it bad if you don’t go?”


  Bo Cixue’s eyelashes fluttered. “He was hospitalized?”


  Then, when she thought of Ye Xuan, she seemed to understand something and her heart panged in pain.

  She looked down, hiding her overwhelming emotions.

  “I’m… not going.” Bo Cixue looked at Bo Jingyu. “Help me tell him that I hope he recovers soon.”


  “Sister, you’re not going?” She even showed her concern when Ye Jie sneezed in the past.

  “Sister, his stomach is bleeding!”


  Bo Cixue covered her face with the book. “I’m sleepy.”


  Bo Jingyu huffed. “I know you don’t mean what you say. I know how much you dote on him!”


  “Go quickly.”


  “Oh.”


  …


  Bo Jingyu went downstairs and seeing him coming down alone, Bo Yan and Yan Hua looked at each other.

  “Your sister isn’t going?”


  “Sister isn’t feeling well and has fallen asleep.”


  Yan Hua looked at Bo Yan. “Little Apple seems a little strange recently. I’m a little worried.”


  “You can have a good chat with her when you’re back.”


  So the three of them went to the hospital.

  Ye Jie was staying in the VVIP ward. When Yan Hua and Bo Yan went over, Ye Jie was still on his drip and his secretary was standing by the side reporting work matters to him.

  “Uncle Bo, Auntie Yan, Jing Yu, you’re here.”


  Yan Hua put the flowers on the table and looked at Ye Jie, who had lost some weight. “Work is important, but your body is more important.”


  “Auntie Yan is right.”


  Yan Hua said a few words to Ye Jie and when Little Apple was mentioned, Yan Hua said apologetically, “Little Apple isn’t feeling too well these few days and will come and see you when she’s better.”


  Ye Jie nodded, his noble face unreadable.

  After Bo Yan and Yan Hua left the ward, Bo Jingyu stayed for a while.

  “Brother-in-law, did you not see the message I sent you?”


  Seeing that Bo Jingyu had called him “Brother-in-law”, Ye Jie pursed his lips slightly, but did not correct him. He said lightly, “I haven’t logged in in a long time.”


  “You’re really dense. Why is my sister so loyal to you?”


  The secretary beside him frowned. “Second Young Master, don’t be so presumptuous in front of His Highness.”


  Ye Jie waved his hand. “It’s alright. Jingyu’s still a child.”


  Bo Jingyu made a funny face at the secretary. He sat by the bed and continued, “Although you and my sister were childhood sweethearts, you guys only interact with each other a few times a year. Actually, you don’t know my sister at all.”


  “My sister is much more interesting than you think. You will definitely like her very much if get to know her.”


  Ye Jie smiled faintly. “Your sister is very outstanding.”


  “Tsk, tsk. You’re so insincere.” Bo Jingyu snorted. “I know that people outside are saying that my sister is well-behaved and not as sexy as those seductive b*tches. I can only say that they don’t know my sister at all!”


  “I will understand her properly when there is a chance in the future.”


  Seeing that Ye Jie’s attitude was good, Bo Jingyu nodded with satisfaction. “That’s good. I have to go. If you have time, take a look at the WeChat I sent you. I promise you won’t be at a loss.”


  Bo Jingyu strolled off.

  The secretary shook his head, not knowing how the usually cold and serious General Bo could raise such a rude rich young man.

  The secretary continued to report to Ye Jie.

  An hour later, Ye Jie finally rested.

  Seeming to have thought of something, he called Ah You in. “My private phone.”


  Ah You passed the phone to Ye Jie.

  Ye Jie logged into WeChat. There were quite a few messages but he immediately found Bo Jingyu’s WeChat.

  Ah You stood by the bed and glanced at Ye Jie’s phone incidentally.

  He froze.

  W-was that a pair of women’s long legs?

  Ah You did not see it clearly and wanted to continue looking, but he looked up and met with his Highness’ cold black eyes.

  It was like a reef at the bottom of the sea, making people’s hearts tremble.

  “Your Highness, I’ll go out first.”


  Ye Jie hummed, his emotions unreadable.

  …


  Ah You went outside and the secretary, who never gossiped, asked when he saw that Ah You’s ears were a little red, “What’s wrong? What did Second Young Master Bo send to His Highness?”


  It was hard to imagine what an 11-year-old boy could do to make Ah You’s ears red.

  There was no way Ah You would have said that he had only seen a pair of legs that turned his ears red.

  “It’s nothing.”


  …


  Half a month later.

  Bo Cixue had already confirmed which university she was going to attend. She was no longer cooped up at home and was busy every day. Her family did not know what she was busy with.

  Until this morning, Yan Hua went to Bo Cixue’s room and woke her up happily. “Little Apple, get up quickly.”


  Bo Cixue rubbed her eyes, her deer-like eyes sleepy and bright, making her heart soften. “Mom, what’s wrong?”


  “His Majesty and your Brother Xiaojie are treating our family to a meal. There’s something important to discuss.”


  Bo Cixue’s heart skipped a beat.

  Looking at her mother’s expression, Bo Cixue could roughly guess what the discussion was about.

  “I’ll go choose your clothes for you. The hairstylist and makeup artist are already waiting outside.”


  Bo Cixue pulled Yan Hua back. “Mom, you and Dad go over first. I want to dress myself up before I go over.”


  “Foolish girl. If we’re going, we will naturally go together.”


  “Mom, will you listen to me this time?” Bo Cixue held on to Yan Hua’s arm, whining softly.

  Yan Hua had no way out once she whined. “Alright, let’s go to the best room in Huangting.”


  Bo Cixue nodded. “I got it.”


  After Yan Hua left, Bo Cixue took out her suitcase and carried her bag. After a while, she arranged for the servant to go out and then took the elevator directly to the underground garage.
