Fu Tingyan stared at the cold and beautiful face in front of him, waiting for her answer.

After a long silence, the person said calmly, “You have the wrong person.”

Fu Tingyan heard this sentence four times and felt inexplicably frustrated. He looked at the goblet in her hand. Half of the red liquid had already been drunk, and there was still half left. He suddenly reached out and snatched the goblet from her hand, he put it to his mouth, raised his head, and drank it in one gulp, as if to vent his dissatisfaction.

The goblet was just casually held in his hand, so it was easily snatched away by him. She watched as he drank the rest of the wine.

Just then, a waiter came over. Fu Tingyan put the empty goblet into the tray, and then pulled her in the direction of the lounge.

Fu Tingyu was a man and had learned martial arts. He didn’t give her a chance to refuse, so she could only follow him.

When she walked out of the lounge, there was a corridor outside. There were very few people, so she couldn’t help but ask, “What do you want to do?”

Fu Tingyan held her wrist tightly and strode forward. Without turning his head, he said, “Let’s find a quiet place and have a good talk in private.”

She reminded him again, “You’ve really mistaken me for someone else.”

After saying that, she started to struggle.

Fu Tingyan didn’t believe that he had mistaken her for someone else. However, when he heard her say those words all the time, he felt a fire in his heart, which made him very frustrated.

When he realized that she was struggling, he simply stopped walking when he turned the corner. He gripped her wrist tightly and pressed her against the wall while his other hand supported the wall, trapping her firmly in front of him.

He lowered his eyes and looked at her. The light here was slightly stronger, but he still could not clearly see the expression in her eyes. However, from her reaction, he could tell that she really did not want to meet him.

He lowered his body and leaned close to her ear, letting out a breath. “Say that again.”

“You’ve mistaken…”

Before she could finish her words, she was stopped by a pair of cold lips. Because they had drunk wine together, there was still a lingering wine fragrance between their lips and teeth. It was somewhat intoxicating.

Fu Tingyan had kissed her many times when he was learning martial arts at Uncle Ye’s place.

He was too familiar with her touch and her breath. Even if he closed his eyes, he would not admit his mistake.

What Fu Tingyan was thinking was, if you don’t admit it, then don’t be afraid of the consequences.

At first, she was still struggling and resisting, but because of Fu Tingyan, she lost her ability to resist.

Feeling her resistance gradually disappear, it made him a little happy.

Fu Tingyan grabbed the doorknob next to him and pushed the door open. Then, he put one hand around her waist and pushed her in. Then, he locked the door behind him.

In the waiting room, it was so quiet that one could only hear each other’s heartbeat.

He pressed her against the door and asked hoarsely, “I’ll give you another chance. Did I get the wrong person?”

At first, she could still calmly deny that she was Bo Ye, but now, after he denied it several times, she still firmly believed that she did not get the wrong person and even kissed her.

Now…

She turned her head away from his burning gaze. “You, let go of me first.”

“You don’t want to admit it?” Fu Tingyan changed his question. “Alright then, tell me why you came here first.”

“I’m here with a friend.”

This question made Fu Tingyan a little unhappy, but fortunately, she answered and he asked again, “Don’t you know that this is my company? Or do you have other motives?”

“I know. You’re not happy to see me. I’ll leave now.”

As soon as she said this, she was stunned. This sentence was a disguised admission that she was Bo Ye.

Fu Tingyan snorted lightly. “You finally admitted that you’re Bo Ye? Why do you pretend not to know me? Just because you don’t want to see me?”

Bo Ye pursed his lips tightly and didn’t answer.

Fu Tingyan took it as her acquiescence.

“Since you don’t want to see me, why don’t you stay far away? Why do you have to let me see you?” Fu Tingyan pressed the corner of his lips together and said unhappily while gritting his teeth. After saying that, he kissed the corner of her lips.

Although he wasn’t happy, he was still very happy and a little excited to see her again.

Bo Ye didn’t know what to say. She didn’t plan to meet him this time. She just wanted to watch from afar. Since they met now, she would say to his face, “Congratulations, Fu Tingyan.”

“Who wants your congratulations? There are many people who say congratulations to me. I’m not lacking.”

Fu Tingyan said those harsh words, but in his heart, he was still a little happy. She said congratulations. Maybe this time, she was actually here to say those words.

Bo Ye could only say, “If that’s the case, then I should leave too. My friend is waiting for me outside.”

However, Fu Tingyan held onto her and said, “Don’t leave tonight. Let’s drink and chat, just like when we were learning martial arts.”

Bo Ye replied, “I’m leaving with my friend. I can’t stay.”

Fu Tingyan licked his dry lips and said, “You sent yourself to me. Don’t even think about leaving.”

Bo Ye listened to his childish words and said gently, “Don’t talk like a child.”

“Talk like a child?” Fu Tingyan’s lips curled into a mocking smile. “I’ll tell you right now, am I talking like a child?”

He lowered his head and kissed her again, not giving her a chance to reject him.

Suddenly, the air became a little stagnant.

Fu Tingyan stopped kissing and looked at her in disbelief because there was no light in the lounge. No matter how close they were, they couldn’t see each other.

“Are you a woman?”

After knowing each other for so many years, learning martial arts together, eating and living together, he had never doubted her gender. Although sometimes he felt that her actions were a little strange, he didn’t think too much about it.

Only today did he realize that Bo Ye was actually a woman?

A real woman.

Bo Ye pursed his lips and didn’t say anything because he didn’t expect him to realize that she was a woman because of this.

He didn’t realize that she was a woman even though he had dragged her all the way.

Fu Tingyan still couldn’t believe what he had just discovered. After a while, he raised his hand and turned on the lights in the lounge. The originally dark lounge instantly lit up.

He stared at the person in front of him. His gaze moved down and landed on her. This time, he saw it clearly.

Bo Ye was a woman?

He only realized it now?

Although he could not believe that he did not realize it and was very surprised, he was very happy.

He was quite normal because for a period of time, he had always suspected that there was something wrong with him.

He looked up at Bo Ye. There was a faint blush on her fair cheeks. He asked curiously, “Why don’t you ever say that you are a woman? Then every time we meet, you can also… accept it as if nothing happened?”

Bo Ye replied, “I promised my elder brother that I wouldn’t let others know that I’m a woman.”

“Your elder brother, Bo Yin?” When Bo Ye’s elder brother, Bo Yin, was mentioned, Fu Tingyan’s expression turned a little ugly. As an elder brother, he was being too controlling.

“Yes.”

“I’ll let bygones be bygones for the matter of you lying to me. However, in order to make up for it, you’ll accompany me tonight,” Fu Tingyan said domineeringly.

Bo Ye directly refused, “No, I have to go back.”

“You have to go?”

Fu Tingyan’s dark eyes stared at her, as if as long as she dared to nod, he would do anything.

Bo Ye turned around, “Yes.”

Fu Tingyan was so angry that he almost packed her up and carried her back. “I can let you go, but I want something.”

Bo Ye hesitated for a moment and said, “If I can give it to you, I will. You have to let me go first.”

Fu Tingyan suddenly smiled and said in a domineering tone, “It’s not up to you, but since I found you again, I won’t let you go again.”

Bo Ye asked in confusion, “What is it?”

“I’ve always had misgivings because at that time, I thought you were a man, so I couldn’t bear it. Now that I know you’re a woman, you took the initiative to come to Jiangcheng. You gave me hope. As for the rest, I’ll fight for you myself.”

After saying that, Fu Tingyan kissed her again, not giving her a chance to ask again.

The lounge was similar to the guest room. There was basically everything in there. There was a big bed, and the four-piece suit on the bed was also white.

There was a separate bathroom inside, and everything inside was complete.

When Fu Tingyan laid her on the bed, he looked at Bo Ye’s slightly dazed eyes and couldn’t help but ask, “We’ve known each other for five or six years. Do you like me at all?”

Bo Ye pursed his lips and didn’t want to answer his question.

In the end, she couldn’t help but nod after being interrogated by him.

At that moment, it was probably when Fu Tingyan was happy. If he liked her a little, it meant that he still had a great chance. As long as there was a chance, he wouldn’t give up.

Ever since he left that time, he had said that he could wait as long as she said the word.

And because of her, he left without looking back.

In the eyes of outsiders, he left resolutely.

In fact, only he himself knew that he really did not want to leave just like that and let go.

But at that point, what could he do?

He could not pester her like a woman?

Sometimes, he would think, why did he have to say such words?

He didn’t even have an excuse to look for her.

Now that she had finally taken the initiative to deliver herself to him, no matter what the reason was, he wouldn’t let her go.

Until three o’clock in the morning.

The sound of water splashing could be heard in the bathroom.

…

…

A few hours ago.

Jiang Yu was afraid that Ye Xue’s feet would hurt if she wore high heels for too long. In addition, he wanted to cook dinner for her tonight, so he brought her home earlier.

However, he didn’t see Tingyan after looking around. “Why haven’t I seen the star of the show tonight?”

“Forget it, Xiao Xue. Let’s go back first.”

Jiang Yu didn’t care about Fu Tingyan. He held Ye Xue’s hand and walked out of the banquet hall.

On the way back, he took Ye Xue to the supermarket, bought ribs, and drove home.

It was half an hour later when they got home.

As soon as Ye Xue got home, she couldn’t wait to take off her high-heeled shoes, dress, and change into loose home clothes.

Jiang Yu took off his suit jacket, picked up the apron hanging on the wall, and tied it around his body. Then he took out the ribs he had just bought and began to clean them.

After Ye Xue changed, she walked into the kitchen and left Jiang Yu alone in the kitchen. She was worried.

Jiang Yu didn’t have any talent in cooking. The best he could do was to cook instant noodles.

Ye Xue walked over and asked, “Have you washed it clean?”

“I washed it with tap water several times. It should be clean now?” Jiang Yu thought that he had washed it clean, but it wasn’t a big problem because he still needed to cook it.

Then, he started to prepare garlic, ginger, cooking wine, vinegar, and boiling water.

He had asked Ye Xue in advance. Jiang Yu had a good memory, so he could remember.

Ye Xue then went to wash the rice and cook the rice.

When she turned around, she found that the water was already boiling. She reminded him, “Jiang Yu, you can turn off the heat now.”

Jiang Yu hurriedly turned off the heat, scooped out the ribs, and drained the water.

When the oil was hot, Jiang Yu said to Ye Xue beside him, “Xiao Xue, stand back a little. Be careful not to get splashed by the hot oil.”

Ye Xue felt that it was really difficult for Jiang Yu. He did not have the talent to cook, but he often volunteered to cook for her.

After eating, he even rushed to wash the dishes.

Once, Mrs. Ye called to ask how she and Jiang Yu were getting along and how far they had progressed.

Mrs. Ye was actually quite opposed to them living together before marriage, but since her daughter was willing, she did not say anything.

Thinking about Jiang Yu’s family background, she was still worried from time to time. She was afraid that if the two of them got along, there would be a rift between them, and their feelings would be irreconcilable.

“Mom, Jiang Yu and I are pretty good. He’s cooking now.” Once Ye Xue thought about how far things had progressed, how could she say all that?

Every night, she and Jiang Yu slept on the same bed. Kissing was something that they would do every night.

Occasionally, they would get closer.

But they did not manage to do it until the end.

Jiang Yu would sometimes hug her and say, “It’s too hard to endure.”

Ye Xue did not want to see him like this, so she mustered up her courage and said, “Then you don’t have to endure it.”

“It’s better to endure it. I don’t think we need to rush.”

Ye Xue’s heart ached and she was happy. Although she was a little nervous about these things, seeing him like this was much better.

“I’ll go take a shower.”

The moment Mrs. Ye heard that Jiang Yu was going to cook, she started to talk about her daughter. “How can you let him cook? He’s a young master from a wealthy family, how can he cook? Isn’t he tired from work? You child, why aren’t you sensible?”

“Of course I know that work is tiring, but he deliberately let the chef rest and cook by himself. When I said I was going to cook, he pushed me out.”

Mrs. Ye was stunned. She couldn’t believe that Jiang Yu was still fighting to cook?

“Then how far have you progressed?”

“That’s right. We just slept together and didn’t do that,” Ye Xue said with a red face.

“Really?” Mrs. Ye was experienced and indeed didn’t understand Jiang Yu’s thoughts.

“He doesn’t have any thoughts?”

“He said he’s not in a hurry.”

Mrs. Ye wanted to ask, but in the end, Mr. Ye didn’t let her continue probing about this matter.

Ye Xue saw that Jiang Yu was about to put the ribs into the pot and couldn’t help but say, “Jiang Yu, let me do it.”

“No need.”

Ye Xue could only stand aside and watch.

Under Ye Xue’s guidance, Jiang Yu finally made a plate of sweet and sour pork ribs, tomato egg soup, and fried pork with onions.

At the dining table.

Jiang Yu looked at the two dishes and one soup on the table and felt a sense of accomplishment.

He raised his head to look at Ye Xue who was sitting there. She was enjoying her meal. “Xiao Xue, tomorrow is the weekend. Bring your parents to go out to play.”

Ye Xue raised her hands in agreement to Jiang Yu’s suggestion. “Sure.”

Jiang Yu looked at Ye Xue’s smiling face. He was stunned. He thought of Zhou Yizuo and said, “Yesterday, Zhou Yizuo came to look for me.”
