“Miss Xia, everything is all set. That Miss Ye who had the audacity to storm into your house and shatter all your belongings, it’s infuriating. And the worst part is, those who attended her birthday banquet at the Ye’s family were all praising her. It’s just infuriating. But this time, it’s finally our chance to get back at her.”

“Hmm,” replied Xia Yanyan, eyes closed, collecting herself.

She was seething at the thought of all her precious belongings shattered by White Lotus. And she couldn’t retaliate because White Lotus was blackmailing her with a video that jeopardised her family’s interests.

If she let the likes of White Lotus trample over her like this, her two decades’ worth of national treasures would all be for naught!

Ye Xingguang, unable to find Xia Yanyan at the state banquet, decided to chase after her in a car.

On the way, Ye Junqing kept calling her. She let the phone ring incessantly, ignoring him.

Once the ringing ceased, she finally checked her WeChat only to face Fu Zhuo’s reprimand sent earlier.

Fu Zhuo: [Miss Ye, just because our lord is favouring you doesn’t mean you can deceive him behind his back with your ex-boyfriend!]

Ye Xingguang, who had been too busy to respond then, finally texted: [When did I ever secretly meet my ex-boyfriend?]

Fu Zhuo: [You dare deny it? He’s seen the photos, and he’s livid. I suggest you call him immediately and explain the situation, and reflect on your inappropriate actions!]

Ye Xingguang bit her lip. So, he had indeed seen the photos which explained why he was bombarding her with calls. But how could she explain the situation without any surveillance footage to prove her innocence?

Upon returning home, Xia Yanyan flounced into her large pool, her beautiful enchanting mermaid tail sweeping freely across. Clearing her throat, she started practicing her singing.

She wanted to see if her dolphin-like singing could surpass that of Ye Xingguang.

But after several attempts, she frustratingly realized her singing, even as a mermaid, was far from matching the country girl from the island, Ye Xingguang.

Intolerable!

Xia Yanyan, not one to accept defeat easily, redoubled her efforts. If she didn’t succeed once, she would try twice. If not twice then thrice, then four times…

While she was practicing, she heard the frustrated and anxious voice of the servant, “Miss Ye, Miss Ye, our young lady is not home yet, she’s really not here. If you need to speak with her, please come back tomorrow. You cannot just barge in like this, it’s disrespectful…”

The servant, having already witnessed Ye Xingguang’s tenacity, was helpless. Unfortunately, the young lady’s singing was like a beacon, leading Ye Xingguang directly to the pool even through shortcuts, implying her familiarity with the mansion…

Unable to deter Ye Xingguang, the servant ran back to the villa in search of the master and the young master as reinforcements.

Seeing Ye Xingguang approach the pool relentlessly, Xia Yanyan instantly became alert, quickly glancing at Ye Xingguang’s hand to ensure she was unarmed. Assured of her unarmed state, she regained her composure and looked haughtily from the water.

“Miss Ye, do you take my home for your own, moving around freely?”

Ignoring her, Ye Xingguang fumed at the sight of the troublemaker leisurely soaking in the swimming pool.

“Xia Yanyan, are you really itching for a fight?”

“Miss Ye, I have no idea what you’re talking about. I’m sorry, but I can’t understand.” noveldrama

“Oh, really? You can’t understand? Spreading pictures of my ex-boyfriend and me everywhere, what are you up to? Don’t think that just because you’re backed by the National Treasures Committee, I’ll be scared. If you push me, believe me, I’ll dice you into fish paste!”
