Xiao Ju thought, Poverty really restricted my purchasing abilities and imagination.
Buying bubble tea?
When shopping, they ran into Alice coincidentally. Alice and the person in charge of the mall were having a tour around the mall. This was the first shopping mall in New York that the Tang En family was going to invest in. Furthermore, it was located in the financial district. As the CEO, she came to inspect the mall without expecting to meet Ye Chu. She had not seen Ye Chu for a while. Every time she talked about Ye Chu to Ye Tingyun, he would keep on talking, and she would be unable to retrieve any information about the MISS Building. She could only exercise some restraint herself. Upon meeting Ye Chu by coincidence, she was extremely surprised.
“Ye Chu, long time no see.” Alice walked over and greeted her with a smile. Ye Chu was stunned and looked at her slowly. Alice had never appeared in her dreams.
It was as if she was not related to this person at all.
In her dreams, Mother rarely talked about her sister. She would mention that she had a sister sometimes, but the reason why her sister never visited her remained the biggest mystery of her childhood.
“Hello.”
“Is your injury better?”
“Much better.”
“I heard that you had a car accident and wanted to see you, but I didn’t get the chance to do so.”
“I’m fine.”
Alice thought that Ye Tingyun was indeed lying to her. Ye Chu was fine without any injuries. She looked healthy too. Her worried heart calmed down. She said with a smile, “It’s good that you are fine. Are you buying stuff?”
“Yes!”
Xiao Ju was helping her carry the items. Mu Yuan finished paying and came over carrying a few bags. He saw Alice and frowned slightly. Alice also saw Mu Yuan.
“It’s you?”
“It’s you?”
The two of them spoke at the same time. They looked at each other in an unfriendly manner. Alice’s face sank. “Why are you with her?”
“It’s none of your business.”
As the years went by, Mu Yuan’s childishness had diminished gradually. He had more of an adult’s sharpness and a high-ranking officer’s calm yet authoritative charisma, which was as if he was covered with a layer of cold air. Others did not even dare to look straight at him.
Alice met his gaze like they had some grudges between them. The two of them then averted their gazes as if it was intolerable to even look for a second longer. Towards Ye Chu, Alice’s expression turned immediately and became gentle. “Ye Chu, I never had your phone number. Can you leave me your contact? I’ll ask you out for tea next time.”
She could not remember her phone number.
The only person she contacted on her phone was little Second Brother. She had spent a lot of years on the boat and rarely used the phone. She was not well-attuned to electronic products and did not know what her number was.
“Did you bring your phone?”
Ye Chu shook her head. “I’m not used to it.”
Mu Yuan said coldly, “What’s wrong with you? Are you here to steal her away?”
“It’s none of your business, right?” She returned the same words back to Mu Yuan.
Ye Chu’s heart was conflicted. She used to be a passionate person. She could release her enthusiasm really well, and she liked to make friends because she was too lonely. However, after recalling some things, the extent of her past enthusiasm became the extent of her present coldness.
When she needed her family the most, no one was beside her. They let her wander astray for many years outside and even doted on an impostor. There seemed to be goosebumps in her heart and an indescribable feeling of being wronged. All sorts of emotions were entangled together. She could not feel any intimacy towards Alice.
“Alice, you are really weird. Are the two of you close? Why are you so nice to her? It’s so rare for you to be nice to someone.. Are you a lesbian? Are you really trying to steal her away?” asked Mu Yuan coldly.
