Only a little over an hour had passed since Helan Fangnian met Yan Qingsi, yet his heart felt as though it had been a few seasons. Deep inside, he always hoped that the relationship between Yan Qingsi and Yue Tingfeng was one-sided, with Yue Tingfeng exerting his dominion on her. He thought, at the very least, Qingsi was unwilling to be in this relationship.

However, Yan Qingsi cruelly stabbed at his heart.

Yue Tingfeng knew full that he’s being used by Yan Qingsi. Under such circumstances, he was willing to play along.

If this could help him get rid of a powerful rival in love, he was happy to comply.

Even if Yan Qingsi did not initiate the kiss, he planned to do the same. He must make Helan Fangnian give up hope.

Yan Qingsi released Yue Tingfeng and looked over toward Helan Fangnian. “I want to be famous, to be the hottest female celebrity within the country. I want to stand at the peak of the podium. These are my desires, which you can’t give me, but he can! Don’t come looking for me in the future, don’t even try to understand me. We cannot be friends.”

‘And never lovers,’ she thought in her heart.

Still holding Yan Qingsi by the waist, Yue Tingfeng told Helan Fangnian, “Goodbye. We’ll be making a move now. Please inform uncle and aunty on my behalf that my mother’s leaving early as she’s feeling under the weather.”

Yue Tingfeng turned around with Yan Qingsi in his arms.

“Qingsi…” Helan Fangnian called out from behind.

Yan Qingsi said apathetically, “You should return to Country M.”

Helan Fangnian could only stare as Yue Tingfeng led Yan Qingsi away, both dressed in black as though a matching couple.

The pain in Helan Fangnian’s heart grew. He muttered toward Yan Qingsi who disappeared amidst the night. “But I want to wait for you.”

Yue Tingfeng could not give her love nor happiness, but he could.

Yan Ruke quietly walked up to Helan Fangnian’s side, “Today… Thank you Mr. Helan, I will remember your kindness…”

Helan Fangnian departed immediately as though he did not hear her at all.

Yan Ruke grasped firmly on the hotel’s janitor uniform on her while she gritted her teeth.

It was eerily quiet in the car. Mrs. Yue’s eyes were darting around the two of them, burning bright with the flames of juicy gossip.

Mrs. Yue broke the silence. “Not only are you hooking up with my son, now even that kid from Helan family is involved. What an unbearable person you are.”

Yan Qingsi’s lips curled upward. “As I’ve told you, I am pretty and have a great body—an expert in seducing guys. If I’m willing, no man will be able to resist my seduction. You’ve only seen one Helan Fangnian. If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll show you a few more.”

Mrs. Yue blushed. “You… You’re shameless…”

Yan Qingsi giggled. “Of course, how else would I be hooking up with your son?”

“You… You both. Hmph! You’re both the same,” Mrs. Yue said as she turned her head away to ignore them.

Yan Qingsi’s smile faded slowly.

Yue Tingfeng drove on without a care, not taking part in the argument between the two, treating them as air.

As they arrived at the Yue family’s house, Yue Tingfeng opened the car door, allowing Mrs. Yue to get off the car first. Then, he proceeded to open the car door for Yan Qingsi. “Please, come down.”

Yan Qingsi held on to Yue Tingfeng as she got off the car, she told Mrs. Yue, “Aunty, lend me your son for a night. I’ll return him to you tomorrow.”

Mrs. Yue looked defensive. “You… What do you want?”

Yan Qingsi laughed. “Relax, I won’t ‘eat him up’.”
