There wouldn’t be any problem if she was Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli’s biological younger sister.

But she wasn’t.

She had received too much affection from Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli, which elicited a sense of crisis and jealousy in Shi Xiling and Leng Peini.

They were afraid that the relationship among the three of them would suddenly change from being siblings to lovers.

They were afraid that she would replace their positions.

As a result, at the initial guess of who had switched the chocolates she had prepared, both of their names jumped into her mind immediately.

Of course, this was only her guess.

Putting aside her lack of evidence, even if she did have evidence, this was also her personal matter and she would never wash her dirty laundry in public.

Therefore, she pretended that she didn’t hear Gu Junzhu’s words and remained silent.

Gu Junzhu curved the corner of his lips and dropped the interrogation. He looked out of the car window and said, “We’re here.”

Recalling his gaze, his sight swept across Ye Xingbei’s chest and he spoke meaningfully, “Would you like to tidy up your clothes a little?”

As Ye Xingbei followed his line of sight, her complexion immediately flushed red and she rapidly covered her chest while turning her body away. After she had fastened the buttons on her shirt with shaky fingers, she turned back and throttled Gu Junzhu’s neck ferociously. “You rogue! Ruffian! Gangster!”

He had actually taken advantage of her delirious state to unfasten her buttons. And in that manner, she had generously revealed a semi-concealed bosom as she was chatting with him.

This was too shameful!

Her embarrassed face was burning like it was going to exude smoke soon;she wished that she could burrow herself into a hole.

Gu Junzhu chuckled involuntarily and pulled her hand away while speaking in a deadpan manner, “It’s not my fault. Your buttons were fastened too flimsily so when I was giving you CPR and pushing against your heart, it opened on its own with a few presses. I can swear that I wasn’t the one who unbuttoned them!”

Ye Xingbei, “…”

P-P-Pushed her heart?

Wasn’t her heart positioned close to her bust area?

Not only did this thug see it, he had even touched it!

Feeling so ashamed that she wanted to die, Ye Xingbei pounced onto Gu Junzhu fiercely and pushed him down on the car’s backseat as she throttled his neck with all her strength. “I’m going to choke you to death, you b*oody rogue!”

Gu Junzhu caught her wrist and mustered all his strength to suppress his laughter as he said righteously, “Head Director Ye, no matter whether I kissed your mouth or pressed your chest, I did it all to administer CPR on you! It was to save your life! I’m a youth supporter of National Socialism. I do good deeds without requesting reciprocation. I won’t ask you to return this small favor with a huge helping hand but at the very least, you should not requite kindness with enmity, right?”

Ye Xingbei, “…”

She had only just recovered from hypoglycemia so her limbs were still feeble. Even when she was throttling Gu Junzhu’s neck, there wasn’t much strength used.

Listening to Gu Junzhu twist his words into a logical argument, a deep sense of powerlessness rose from within her.

She released Gu Junzhu’s neck and covered her face in despair. Beginning to reflect sorrowfully, she wondered if she had just made the worse decision in her life.

Pretending to be a couple with Gu Junzhu?

She must’ve lost her mind just now for her to agree to Gu Junzhu’s proposal!

In this pretense as husband and wife with a shameless ruffian, she even dreamed of “going dutch” with him, without fulfilling any wifely duties and responsibilities, she must have been having a ridiculous pipe dream!

Just when she was pondering over how to get Gu Junzhu to agree to break their promise, the car stopped and Gu Junzhu’s personal bodyguard cum chauffeur Gu Zhou turned his head back to look at Gu Junzhu. “Young Master, we’ve reached the Jiang family’s residence.”

Ye Xingbei immediately sat upright and all her nerves tensed up.

The Jiang family!

They had arrived at the place that had given her the most harm and humiliation in her life!
