Chapter 2414 - 218
Chapter 2414: Chapter 218
Momo raised an eyebrow, bypassing him to walk over to the horizontal bar.
Ye Zhan didn’t stop her this time; instead, he followed her over.
Momo leaned against the horizontal bar, lazily watching Ye Zhan.
"If you really want to know, do a hundred pull-ups and I’ll tell you,"
she said casually.
Her tone even carried a hint of mockery.
To her surprise, Ye Zhan quickly replied, "Alright!"
The tall figure in front of her approached the bar, his strong hands gripping it. He gave her a smile and started doing pull-ups at a speed that surprised her.
Momo was momentarily stunned by his smile.
When she snapped back to reality, a trace of bitterness seeped into her heart.
Ye Zhan’s strength was astonishing; although she had seen Mo Ziye and the others working out before,
she still felt that Ye Zhan’s speed was faster than any of theirs, and he performed them with remarkable form.
A self-deprecating smile tugged at her lips.
Over the days, she was always the one getting hurt. She really couldn’t have imagined that Ye Zhan would take her words to heart and actually start doing pull-ups in front of her.
Suddenly, the phone rang.
Momo lowered her gaze, her long lashes concealing the fleeting emotion in her eyes.
She pursed her lips and took out her phone.
When she saw the caller ID, her expression changed slightly. Out of the corner of her eye, Ye Zhan glanced at her.
She pressed the answer button and spoke lightly, "Hello, senior brother."
"Junior sister, have you booked your flight yet?"
On the other end, Huo Song’s delighted voice came through.
Beside his voice, there were other people talking.
Momo’s eyes flickered and she said gently, "Not yet. I’m out jogging now, I’ll book the flight once I get home."
"Alright, as long as you get back today, it doesn’t matter if you tell me the time or not."
"What do you mean?"
Momo chuckled and asked.
"I’ll be at the airport waiting for you soon."
Beside her, Ye Zhan stopped after completing a hundred pull-ups.
His hands which held the bar didn’t loosen, the tension increased during Momo and Huo Song’s conversation.
Listening to Momo’s light-hearted voice and looking at her bright smile, his gaze darkened.
She turned her head, pointed at him,
then turned around and walked out of the park.
Ye Zhan stood there, watching her back, thinking about something unknown, forgetting to follow her.
Until an elderly man practicing Tai Chi a few meters away walked over and said to him, "Young man, you need to coax your girlfriend, no matter how mad she is, just coax her hard."
He snapped back to reality.
Saying, "Thank you, sir,"
he took off running out of the park, catching up to the phone-talking Momo.
Hearing the footsteps running from behind, Momo continued talking to Huo Song with an unchanged expression.
Ye Zhan didn’t interrupt her call, just stopped when he caught up with her, walking alongside her, side by side.
In the distance, behind the floor-to-ceiling window of a certain villa.
A man sat by the window, one hand propped on the small table, the other holding a pair of binoculars, watching the scene unraveling in the park with an enigmatic look.
A smile of interest appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Ye Zhan, so my guess was right.
You don’t like Ji Anyun, and the rumors with her are just to protect the woman you truly like in your heart.
In this, you far surpass your father, Ye Zhangming.
What you’re doing is right, if you hadn’t tried to use Ji Anyun to confuse me, how else would I have met the woman you like, and become interested in her myself?
He watched as Ye Zhan ran out of the park, staying by Momo’s side, without conversation, growing impatient from waiting.
Putting away the binoculars, he picked up the bitter medicine on the table and drank it in one gulp.
Secretly saying in his heart, Ye Zhan, we are destined to be enemies, eternal enemies!
