Chapter 2415 - 219
Chapter 2415: Chapter 219
Outside the park.
Momo’s slender and fair fingers held the phone, as she turned her gaze to the man walking beside her, "Did you finish a hundred sit-ups?"
"Finished."
Ye Zhan looked at her with a serious and focused gaze.
Giving Momo the illusion that at this moment, she was his instructor.
And Ye Zhan, a serious trainee.
She couldn’t quite handle his overly intense demeanor, her eyes flickered, and she turned her face to look ahead, lifting her feet intending to continue walking forward.
In Ye Zhan’s profound eyes, a gleam of light flashed, and he reached out to grab her wrist.
In her slightly changed expression, he explained seriously, "When you called yesterday, Ji Anyun was there."
"Let go of me first."
Momo frowned, a thin layer of anger in her clear eyes.
She struggled a bit but couldn’t break free from his hand.
Unable to bear the warm sensation on her wrist, she wanted to immediately break free from his hold.
Ye Zhan’s face showed no emotional change, but the strength in his hand increased as she struggled. As a weak woman, she couldn’t possibly break free in front of him.
"Listen to me first."
He didn’t know why she called him last night.
But it probably wasn’t like what she just said.
Ye Zhan felt that the misunderstandings between him and Momo were growing, and Momo wasn’t angry at him now, but indifferent.
"What business does anything between you and Ji Anyun have with me? Why should I listen to you?"
Now when Momo heard Ji Anyun’s name, an inexplicable disgust and anger arose in her heart.
Her upturned face was cold, her eyes coldly looking at Ye Zhan, her lips curled into a mocking arc, "If you don’t let go of me now, I’ll shout for help."
After speaking, she struggled even more angrily.
Ye Zhan’s face changed, darkening.
In the end, he let go of her.
The moment his palm was empty, his heart felt empty as well.
"There’s nothing between Ji Anyun and me."
He pressed his lips together and said calmly.
Momo ignored his words, decisively switching from walking to jogging away.
Ye Zhan took a breath and followed her running pace, matching her speed as he ran by her side.
Momo was infuriated by his persistent presence.
Not knowing if she was angry at herself or trying to shake him off, her steps quickened.
Ye Zhan observed her reaction, his handsome face changing several times.
Seeing Momo’s pace shift from jogging to sprinting, he frowned tightly, planning to stop her.
Momo’s body suddenly lost balance and lunged forward.
Ye Zhan’s heart tightened.
A "Momo, watch out." escaped his lips.
Quickly grabbing her hand, his other arm wrapped around her waist, pulling her into his arms due to the inertia.
Momo’s heart seized momentarily.
The male scent entering her nostrils pulled her back to rationality.
She looked up at the man in front of her.
In his eyes was an undisguised concern and tension.
Because a moment ago she almost fell.
But this tension and concern seemed like a joke to her.
What appeared in her mind was the photo of Ji Anyun hugging him from last night.
The very man holding her now.
She suddenly pushed him away forcefully.
Though Ye Zhan held her, his grip had loosened slightly from before.
Focused entirely on gazing at her, he didn’t expect her sudden shove.
His large hand left her arm but immediately grabbed her wrist again, pulling her back into his arms.
"That’s not how you run."
"It’s none of your business."
Momo was furious, and his reprimand only fueled her anger more.
The eyes that met his were filled with defiance and stubbornness.
Ye Zhan’s face darkened, thinking that if she had fallen earlier, she might have been hurt. The seriousness in his voice couldn’t be hidden, "If you’re angry with me, you can hit me or scold me. Don’t joke with your safety."
Momo noticed not only his seriousness but also his slight anger.
Suddenly she laughed coldly.
Feeling it was truly laughable, what did any of this have to do with him?
"Hit you, scold you?"
"Mm."
Ye Zhan nodded, seriously suggesting that no matter how she hit or scolded him, he wouldn’t retaliate.
Momo asked coldly, "Why should I hit or scold you, isn’t it ridiculous?"
"Because you’re angry."
"If you don’t appear in front of me, I won’t be angry."
"Momo."
Ye Zhan felt a block in his chest.
He had never really consoled a girl before, and wasn’t experienced in this field.
He just called her name in a low voice.
Momo pursed her lips, her face full of sneers, "Did I say something wrong? Ye Zhan, I used to like you. I felt aggrieved when you mentioned Huo Song, felt upset over your ambiguity with Ji Anyun, and got angry over your misunderstandings."
She paused slightly to catch her breath, then continued, "But now I don’t like you anymore. To me, you’re just a stranger who means nothing. Your presence and entanglement only feel like a bother to me. I also don’t want to hear about your Ji Anyun or Li Anyun. Whether you have any relation with them doesn’t concern me."
Momo is a host, well known for her speaking skills.
Similarly, she had suffered countless hurts with Ye Zhan.
Now, as he finally stood in front of her.
She felt pained and naturally wouldn’t let him off easy.
Even if he didn’t like her, she had to hurt him a bit to feel at ease if she couldn’t return all the pain she suffered.
Even if she couldn’t hurt him at all, she wouldn’t let herself repeatedly lose her dignity.
She wanted him to know that when she liked him, he could hurt her. Now that she didn’t like him, whatever happened with Ji Anyun or Li Anyun was nothing to her.
Ye Zhan’s expression wasn’t good.
Her words had indeed hurt him.
His heart felt heavily blocked.
However, after Momo finished saying those words, he didn’t explain but suddenly turned to look at the distant villas.
By the distance, except for the villas covered in the morning glow, there was nothing else.
But Ye Zhan had a strange feeling, as if a cold gaze was staring at him from behind.
Momo saw that her words didn’t get any reaction from him, and instead, he turned to look elsewhere.
Her heart chilled.
Suddenly feeling she was ridiculous, even pitiful.
Ye Zhan turned back, looking at the emotions in Momo’s eyes, his heart tightened, and he subconsciously tightened his grip on her wrist, "Momo, if I did something before that made you sad, I apologize."
"..."
Momo was choked with anger, unable to utter a word.
Ye Zhan held onto her without letting go, his tone softened and slowed, "I just felt someone was watching us, Momo, can we talk somewhere else?"
Momo pursed her lips, asking stiffly, "I just made it very clear."
"But I haven’t made things clear."
Ye Zhan was not only stubborn but also domineering.
Pulling her along regardless of whether she agreed or not.
