Chapter 2514 - 318
Chapter 2514: Chapter 318
Momo looked at Ye Zhan with a slightly startled expression. For some reason, a certain guess suddenly flashed in her mind, and her clear eyes instinctively squinted.
Her gaze quietly observed Ye Zhan’s handsome profile.
He calmly controlled the steering wheel and only turned to look at her after letting her gaze linger for a minute.
Momo withdrew her gaze, her voice softly echoing in the car, "I’m too bored doing nothing."
"Going back to work is good too."
Ye Zhan smiled faintly, "Don’t get too close to that Huo Song. I’ve heard many women in your TV station like him."
"How do you know?"
Momo asked amusedly, and the guess she had earlier resurfaced again.
Ye Zhan laughed nonchalantly, "I heard about it. Anyway, just don’t get too close to him. You never know, his true love might be among those women who like him."
"That being said, I shouldn’t get too close to you either. If so many people like Huo Song, there must be even more women who like you."
Her words seemed to entertain Ye Zhan.
A low, pleasant laugh filled the car, "Momo, I’m not Huo Song, you don’t need to worry about that. My true love is only you."
"Since when did you learn to be so smooth with words? I remember when we first met, you were staying at my house with Tang Jinchen, that was for Qingqing, wasn’t it?"
Momo also smiled, though the smile didn’t reach her eyes.
No matter how it looked, it seemed fake.
Ye Zhan’s eyes flashed slightly, and he asked, "Momo, are you jealous?"
"Do I look like I’m jealous? I’m just stating the facts. Next time, don’t say I’m your true love. Before knowing me, you might have had many true loves, and in the future, you might see other women as true loves. The world is unpredictable, don’t speak too soon."
Her tone was casual.
It didn’t seem like jealousy but more like teasing between friends.
Ye Zhan was amused by her and laughed heartily, "There wasn’t anyone before, and there won’t be anyone afterward either."
"Momo, I really like it when you’re jealous for me."
"I said I’m not jealous."
Momo corrected him seriously.
Ye Zhan indifferently raised one handsome eyebrow, "This can be a thing."
"..."
The conversation was going nowhere.
Momo turned her face towards the window, enjoying the night view outside. No matter the topic, he could always bring it to the same conclusion.
Saying she was jealous, that she cared about him, that she loved him...
I really don’t know where his narcissism comes from.
Ye Zhan saw Momo turning to the window, ignoring him, and he boredly touched his nose, then turned on the music, playing a currently popular song.
This song happened to be Momo’s favorite.
It played on repeat until they got home. Though they didn’t speak further, the heartfelt and melodic song and the lyrics with excellent meaning made the atmosphere in the car especially warm and romantic.
The Range Rover entered the villa and parked in the garage; Momo had unexpectedly fallen asleep.
Since she got sick last year, her sleep had been poor, often requiring lullabies to fall asleep.
Although the surgery was successful later on.
Her sleep quality failed to improve.
After returning to the country, despite drinking traditional medicine for treatment, the damage to her body wasn’t something that could be healed quickly.
Last night she listened to lullabies for two hours without being able to hypnotize herself to sleep.
It wasn’t until well past midnight that she somehow forced herself to sleep.
Just now, sitting in Ye Zhan’s car, she found herself easily drifting off to sleep.
Ye Zhan didn’t wake Momo up after parking the car.
He wasn’t entirely unaware of Momo’s situation. After Mo Xiuchen talked to him that night, they met once more... From Mo Xiuchen, he learned the details of Momo’s situation over the past year.
Including, her difficulty sleeping properly.
At this moment, in the dim light, he gently gazed at the sleeping woman. Her sleep wasn’t particularly good, with her brows slightly furrowed.
But she was indeed asleep.
He took his jacket and lightly draped it over her, gently removed her handbag, switched off her phone... Momo wasn’t disturbed by any of his actions. He didn’t get out of the car, just sat there, turning his body to watch her.
Satisfied, yet filled with pity.
——
In a luxury apartment in G City.
He Qinqin looked at Fang Die’s tearful eyes after hanging up the call, trying to comfort her, "Cousin, I think that Ye Zhan is not worth your liking. Why don’t you stop liking him? There are so many good men in this world, you’re bound to find someone better."
A trace of hatred flashed in Fang Die’s still damp eyes.
She gritted her teeth and said, "In his eyes, there’s only Momo. It’s because Momo saved his life. If everyone knew that Momo’s such a woman who’s slept with countless men, I wonder if he’d still love her as much."
"Cousin, you wouldn’t want to?"
He Qinqin asked in surprise, her eyes wide open.
This cousin of hers had always been proud and spoilt.
She wouldn’t want to do something to Momo, right? If that’s the case, she should avoid getting involved with her, lest she gets implicated.
Fang Die looked at her coldly, "You think I want to do something? You think she can remain spotless?"
"Who told you this? Cousin, did the person you were talking to just now tell you?"
"No, Ji Anyun that fool didn’t destroy Momo at the time and ended up becoming a stray dog herself. Since she’s offered herself for my use, I’ll let her be of maximum use."
"Ji Anyun?"
He Qinqin’s voice instinctively rose a few notches, but she quickly covered her mouth again. Realizing they were alone, she calmed down before letting her hand fall.
"Don’t tell anyone about this."
Fang Die warned with unease.
She wouldn’t do it herself; she’d use Ji Anyun as a tool.
The shame Ye Zhan and Momo brought her tonight, she intended to repay with interest.
"Cousin, don’t worry, I promise not to tell anyone."
"Hmm, don’t you like that Huo Song? Later I’ll have him help you."
Upon hearing this, He Qinqin immediately thanked her with pleasure, "Thank you, cousin."
"Momo is going back to work at the TV station tomorrow, keep an eye on her every move for me."
"Don’t worry, cousin, I’ll watch over her. She depends on her background. If it weren’t for her connection to Haochen Group, our station manager wouldn’t cater to her."
People like He Qinqin, who come from poor backgrounds and think they have talent but constantly fail to get what they want, believe others aren’t relying on their skills but on underhanded means.
She even felt that if it weren’t for the sudden emergence of Momo, she would have had the opportunity to host that program, teaming up with her idol Huo Song.
Fang Die acknowledged with a hum, then dialed another number.
A few seconds later, someone answered the call, and Fang Die sweetly called out, "Dad."
After chatting for a few moments, she stated the purpose of her call, "Dad, I want to ask you to do me a favor..."
