Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1049: Chapter 616: Anger

"What are you looking at?" Leng Youyou’s voice startled Ouyang Zijing, causing her to shiver and turn around, only to see Luo Ye standing at the door, smiling warmly at her. "Why are you back?" Ouyang Zijing asked incredulously.

"Did you think you made me run away?" Luo Ye approached her with a smile, looked downstairs, and moved the daffodils by her feet to the windowsill. "They look prettier here."

Ouyang Zijing hurriedly moved them down. "Placed on the windowsill, they’ll be the first thing noticed when entering. Ye Xuan doesn’t like these flowers, better to keep them on the ground."

"It’s fine. If I asked him to put them here, he’d surely agree." Luo Ye said, moving them back up. "As of now, I am still his fiancée. Where things are placed, I have the final say. If you keep being so inconsiderate, don’t blame me for being rude."

"You..." Ouyang Zijing glanced downstairs again, a mysterious glint flashed in her eyes. "I brought these flowers, you don’t mind?"

Luo Ye shook her head with a smile. "I don’t mind, such beautiful flowers. Since they were brought here, it’s best to appreciate them, right?"

"Whatever, I need to go cook now." Ouyang Zijing said, walking towards the kitchen, and Luo Ye quickly followed. "I didn’t expect Miss Ouyang to be skilled in cooking, let me learn a thing or two."

Ouyang Zijing furrowed her brows. "Can you stop following me?"

Luo Ye widened her eyes. "Cooking isn’t something shameful. As Ye Xuan’s fiancée, it’s already kind of me not to chase you away. What’s with all the fuss?"

"You..." Ouyang Zijing glared at her. "Never mind, I don’t mind letting you have it for a day. Here, it’s yours." Saying so, she removed her apron and turned to leave.

At the moment the door closed, a sly smile flashed across Luo Ye’s eyes...

...

Ye Xuan pushed open the door to find Luo Ye sitting on the sofa, lost in thought. In a few strides, he reached her side. "Ye’er, have you been waiting long?"

Luo Ye raised her head, her expression blank. "I’ve waited until now because I am someone who follows through. Ye Xuan, about our marriage, let’s just forget it.

"What’s wrong?" Ye Xuan’s voice was filled with panic. "I spoke with Governor Hu and rushed back. You know, it’s traffic at this time..."

"It’s not that..." Disappointment filled Luo Ye’s eyes. "We’ve known each other for so long, do you think I’d be upset over trivial matters like this?"

"I’m sorry." Ye Xuan embraced her tightly. "Seeing you like this makes my mind go numb. Can you tell me what happened?"

"When I arrived, Ouyang Zijing was here busy cooking..." Luo Ye suddenly broke free from his embrace, walking swiftly to the door. "You want me to trust you, but with actions like this, how can I? Ye Xuan, I’m tired, let’s end it here." She said, fiercely opening the door and rushing downstairs.

In a state of desperation, Ye Xuan climbed straight down the drainage pipe from the window to the bottom floor, stopping Luo Ye at the entrance. "Ye’er, I never let Ouyang Zijing in here. This whole thing seems suspicious. Please don’t rush; let’s sort it out together, okay?"

"She’s already been inside, what’s there to sort out?" A mocking smile played on Luo Ye’s lips. "Are you trying to say maybe she stole your key to make a copy?

That’s the most cliché plot in movies and TV, fine, say it actually happened, but it doesn’t make it forgivable. Don’t forget your original profession, being this negligent, it only shows you’ve let your guard down around her!"

Ye Xuan held onto her tightly, not letting go. "Ye’er, I’m sure she absolutely didn’t have the chance to steal my key..."

"Are you saying she has a master key?" Luo Ye chuckled softly. "Your lock can be opened by a master key, and that makes it forgivable? Don’t forget your rank!"

"Ye’er..." Ye Xuan felt unable to defend himself.

He was certain his lock couldn’t be opened by a master key, but right now, he had no evidence to clarify the situation...

"Do you think I’m being unreasonable?" Luo Ye looked at him coldly. "There’s a limit to a person’s patience. Since knowing you, I’ve been provoked countless times, and I’m truly fed up with it.

So, let’s end it here. I came to you today originally needing help with something else, but given the circumstances, it’s fine. I’ll find a way myself.

From now on, you take the main road, and I’ll take the solitary bridge. I’ll explain everything to our elders."

"Ye’er, give me time, I’ll get to the bottom of this, alright?" Ye Xuan’s eyes were filled with pain. "I know being with me makes you suffer, but I never show any kindness to other women, truly..."
