Chapter 624: Ye Qingzi Complains

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Upon hearing Ye Qingzi’s defiant remark, Gu Jin arched an eyebrow in mild amusement.

The manager’s expression turned awkward, feeling embarrassed on behalf of Ye Qingzi, especially with their boss present.

With a forced professional smile, the manager addressed Ye Qingzi, “Miss Ye, your membership has been revoked. Please depart, or we will have to involve security.”

After having offended their boss, Ye Qingzi still had the audacity to consider dining there? It was a mere fantasy!

Ye Qingzi hadn’t anticipated the manager of Jinyang Pavilion to disregard her status and even revoke her membership!

Yet, it would be too humiliating if she were escorted out by security.

“Just you wait,” Ye Qingzi muttered indignantly as she departed.

These naive youngsters had no concept of the real world’s complexities. She would leave their parents to impart that lesson!

Taking a taxi to the military hospital, Ye Qingzi nursed her injured hand. The impact of the chopsticks and Gu Jin’s forceful grip had left it red, swollen, and excruciatingly painful, as if her bones had been fractured.

Ye Qingzi retrieved a pill and applied some medicinal ointment to her injured hand. After a moment of contemplation, she snapped a few photos of her swollen hand.

Next, she opened a WeChat conversation, noting that the profile picture remained unchanged—a scene from a patriotic film featuring a waving red flag, a relic from many years past. This was Xiao Yize’s WeChat.

It was ironic that despite being childhood sweethearts, she still had to rely on her brother to obtain Xiao Yize’s contact information.

Aware of the animosity Xiao Yize harbored towards her, she hesitated to reach out to him. Even so, he remained unresponsive to the messages she sent, except when she broached the topic of the events leading up to Auntie Xiao’s accident, eliciting terse responses akin to an interrogation.

Ye Qingzi’s gaze hardened with determination.

She was determined to unveil the true nature of that girl to Xiao Yize.

Ye Qingzi: [Brother Yize, I encountered Miss Gu at Jinyang Pavilion today. I merely intended to discuss strategies for awakening Auntie quickly, but it seems she harbors some misconceptions about me.]

Given Xiao Yize’s deep concern for Auntie Xiao’s well-being, Gu Jin’s self-centered actions were sure to disgust him!

Ye Qingzi: [It’s likely her companion misunderstood and hurled numerous disparaging remarks to shield her. Additionally, the young man accompanying Miss Gu is quite handsome and evidently protective of her. My wrist feels as if it’s on the verge of snapping from his chopsticks [sardonically chuckling].]

Ye Qingzi pondered why Gu Jin’s two companions had treated her so poorly. Surely, Gu Jin must have instigated it.

This presented an opportune moment for Xiao Yize to witness Gu Jin’s true colors—a seemingly aloof facade masking a despicable character who gossiped behind others’ backs.

On one hand, Gu Jin kept Xiao Yize in suspense, while on the other hand, she was romantically involved with a handsome young man. Ye Qingzi refused to believe that Xiao Yize wouldn’t be repulsed by her behavior!

Selecting the most severely injured photo, Ye Qingzi forwarded it.

Ye Qingzi: [|p0 I hadn’t anticipated Miss Gu’s grip to be so forceful. My wrist is visibly swollen. I have a neurosurgery scheduled for later this week; I wonder if it will be postponed.]

Ye Qingzi: [But fret not, Brother Yize. I’ll simply visit the hospital for treatment. Miss Gu and her companions are still young, prone to impulsive actions. I hold no grudges against them.]

Ye Qingzi had kept a keen eye on the top of the conversation box while sending the messages. However, there was no response. Disappointment clouded her gaze. If not for the past incident, Xiao Yize wouldn’t have treated her so coldly.

If Auntie Xiao were present, he would have treated her like family, not as an adversary as he did now.
