Nian Xiaomu got off Yu Yuehan and turned to look at Zheng Yan, whose face had changed from anger. With an innocent face, she said, “I did everything Vice-President Zheng wanted me to do. In what way did I lie to you?”
“…”
“You wanted me to break up with Yu Yuehan. You even wanted to see him heartbroken and devastated. You have seen it just now. I mentioned the breakup in your presence, and Yu Yuehan left this place looking heartbroken and devastated. I have fulfilled both of your conditions, did I lie to you?”
“But you…” said Zheng Yan. She pointed at Nian Xiaomu and thought that she seemed to be right.
However, the most infuriating thing was that she was the one who had told Nian Xiaomu that he looked heartbroken and devastated when Yu Yuehan had left. Now, she could not deny it even if she wanted to.
However, this was not the “heartbroken and devastation” she had wanted to see!
It not only caused her displeasure, but the image of the loving duo showing affection for each other had been smacked hard into her face.
Didn’t Nian Xiaomu say that they were living apart?
They were living apart yet so intimate? Who were they trying to gross out?
She must have believed Nian Xiaomu because her mind was not working properly!
These two were obviously in cahoots to pull such an act in order to get the information she had!
Zheng Yan was still in a fit of anger. By the time she had figured out what was going on and before she had the time to settle the score with Nian Xiaomu, she suddenly recalled something else which was very important.
She had admitted that she forced Nian Xiaomu to break up with Yu Yuehan in his presence…
Zheng Yan’s heart skipped a beat!
She lifted her head to look at the person before her.
Yu Yuehan reached out and pulled Nian Xiaomu behind his back. His elegant body took a step forward and he swept his chilly gaze over her face…
Zheng Yan stood rooted to the ground as if her body was frozen.
Suddenly, she regained her senses and took a few steps back.
Her whole body was leaning against the screen behind her and she shouted, “A gentleman uses his mouth and not his fist! I didn’t want you to break up. I was feeling indignant that I had chased you for so long without getting a response from you. I just wanted you to know what it is like to be rejected!”
Yu Yuehan collected his gaze and turned around to look at Nian Xiaomu.
Nian Xiaomu nodded unhurriedly, proving that what Zheng Yan had said was true.
She was also unsure of Zheng Yan’s thoughts. However, since Yu Yuehan had been cold to Zheng Yan’s advances, it must have been because he was always the one being chased since he was young. She must have wanted him to feel what it was like to be rejected by someone he liked.
She had also said that as long as Nian Xiaomu agreed to her conditions, she would tell her where Tan Bengbeng was.
Nian Xiaomu could not bear to break Yu Yuehan’s heart.
Looking for Tan Bengbeng was important, but not as important as him.
He would be upset if he was asked to break up for no reason. If he was upset, she would also be upset.
She could not bring herself to do such a self-torturing and stupid thing.
It would be better to put on an act to coax Zheng Yan.
“These two actors. You are such a perfect match. I finally know how I lost,” said Zheng Yan. She walked toward the dining table and took a seat.
She instructed the waiter to bring her a set of utensils.
Turning her anger into appetite for food, Zheng Yan was feeling extremely hungry.
As she ate, she said, “This pair of actors, don’t think that you are the only ones who can act. It’s better to open the envelope and check what’s inside. You might find two pieces of blank paper later.”
She had thought that they would start to panic after she finished speaking.
However, who knew that Nian Xiaomu would pull up a chair and unhurriedly sit down in front of her.
With a smile, she said, “When I took the envelope, I had checked that it didn’t contain a blank piece of paper.”
“…”
These two sneaks, she was finally convinced!
