Chapter 179: As You Were

After Ye Zhi’s performance, everyone’s stopped gossiping.

They originally thought that he was going to propose, but in the end, after such a big scene, he simply sent his well wishes.

Only then did Yun Qing heave a sigh of relief. She smiled and took the rose. “Thank you, Second Young Master Ye.”

It was a small interlude, and under the urging of Yun Qi and the others, everyone quickly forgot about this matter.

Ye Zhi’s face was full of worry when he was interrupted. After Yun Qing finished her business, she walked to his side and said, “Ye Zhi, come with me.”

Hearing that, Ye Zhi obediently followed Yun Qing’s footsteps.

Yun Qing took Ye Zhi to the empty dressing room on the second floor and said, “Ye Zhi, what are you thinking about? You almost scared me to death.”

“Isn’t it a surprise?”

Ye Zhi pouted, feeling wronged.

Yun Qing almost fainted — Ye Zhi actually thought it was a surprise?!

“That’s not a surprise, that was a heartattack.”

Yun Qing said helplessly, “Ye Zhi, what do you see in me? There are so many women around you…”

“You’re different from them. I’m serious about you.”

Ye Zhi looked into Yun Qing’s eyes with an extremely sincere expression.

Only then did Yun Qing realize that Ye Zhi really had feelings for her.

“But we’ve been friends for so many years. You also know that I only have feelings for you as a friend. If you had openly proposed to me today, it would have been the end of everything.

“Don’t you even want to be friends with me anymore?”

Yun Qing had to be candid with him.

She didn’t want Ye Zhi to continue being stubborn.

It wasn’t good for either of them.

Ye Zhi pouted aggrievedly. “Yun Qing, I really like you. Don’t you think I have a chance at all?”

“I just want to be good friends with you.”

Yun Qing thought of Ye Zhi’s impulsive and brainless personality and knew that he was not boyfriend material.

She preferred a steady man like Huo Chuan.

Although Huo Chuan had hurt her heart, she knew very well what she saw in him, and what drew her to him.

“Yun Qing…”

Ye Zhi wanted to explain further, but Yun Qing did not want to listen anymore. “Alright, I’m going down. Ye Zhi, remember, we’re good friends.”

After saying that, she turned around.

However, the necklace on her neck suddenly opened with a snap and fell to the ground.

“Let me help you wear it.”

Ye Zhi picked up the necklace quickly.

Yun Qing did not know how to put the necklace on herself. Since Ye Zhi took the initiative, she agreed.

She gently pushed her long hair to the side. Ye Zhi faced her and extended his hand. Using his height advantage, he turned his head to help her put on the necklace.

Ye Zhi was so close to her that Yun Qing’s heart did not waver. She only thought that he was helping.

In the next second, the door to the dressing room was suddenly pushed open.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry… Sister Yun Qing, I, I didn’t think that you and Second Young Master Ye would be here… you guys continue…”

When she heard the disgusting sweet voice, Yun Qing knew it was Yun Meng.

She glared at Yun Meng coldly. “Are you blind? He’s putting a necklace on me. Can’t you see?”

Yun Meng paused and bit her lower lip.

Before she could open the door, Huo Chuan squeezed in, his eyes dark.

His tall figure blocked the light outside, casting a shadow on the ground, blending into Yun Qing’s shadow.

“Sister Yun Qing… I’m… Sorry, I opened the door and looked over. I didn’t see clearly, I thought you were kissing…”

Kissing?

Yun Qing almost laughed out loud.

“Yun Meng, are you a teenage girl? What dirty thoughts are you having in your head?”

Yun Qing sneered, and Yun Meng’s expression immediately turned ugly.

She was not stupid. She could see that Yun Meng was playing coy in front of her.

However, it was too obvious!

“No… I, I really didn’t mean it.”

Yun Meng stammered, “I accidentally spilled wine on President Huo just now, so I brought him up to change. I didn’t know that you guys were here too…”

Yun Qing glanced at the stain on Huo Chuan’s suit.

Even so, everyone could see what had happened.

“I shouldn’t get in the way. Ye Zhi, let’s go.”

Ye Zhi heard the hidden meaning in Yun Qing’s words and quickly followed her.
