“It's nothing.”

“Let me see.”

A chill shot through his spine as he quickly stuffed the device into his inner pocket.

“Let me have a look.”

He caught hold of her hand and gave her a penetrating look. “What would you do if Lin Jingxuan was gone? What would you do if, one day, he was gone?”

Would she disappear from his life as well?

Ye Erruo was stunned by his question. What did he mean by that?

His heart hurt when he saw her shocked reaction. Was it a sign that she could not bear to leave him?

“Hey, I'm asking you. If one day, he was no longer around, what would you do?” He was about to go crazy.

Not far from him, Lin Jingxuan's lips carved into a gloating smile as he watched his enemy getting mad.

“Ye Erruo, I'm asking you a question.”

The woman noticed the guests looking in their direction, hooked her hand around his wrist, and led him out of the hall. They attracted a lot of attention along the way.

The moment they stepped out, the man pushed her back against a tree and demanded again, “Answer me, Ye Erruo.”

“What could I do? I don't care if he's gone or not. I have nothing to do with him. Now, give me back my phone.” She was keen to find out what that person had sent to her now.

“Is that true?”

“What's true or untrue?”

“You won't leave me when he's gone.” He had a funny look on his face.

Her beautiful eyes stared right into his. “Do you want me to leave you?”

He yelled at her, “Dream on! Over my dead body!”

“…”

Every time her man b.u.mped into Lin Jingxuan or they spoke about him, he would get agitated. What should I do to convince him that I won't leave him?

“Return my phone to me and let me have a look.” She reached in his inner pocket.

Mo Jiangye grabbed hold of her hand instead. “You have to keep your word.”

“Yes, I promise,” she said, although she did not know what she had promised in the first place.

“Give me back my phone.”

He took out the phone, glanced at it once, and suddenly threw it far away without a warning.

“Mo Jiangye.”

“You belong to me.”

She was taken aback momentarily before heaving a sigh of resignation. “Yes, I belong to you.”

His angry vibe dissolved the instant he heard this acknowledgement straight from the horse's mouth. Like an aggrieved beast that had been tamed, he was finally mild and calm.

While clinging onto his sleeve, she made a bold guess. “Mo Jiangye, did Lin Jingxuan post images on the Internet?”

Otherwise, the man would not have become so agitated and hot-tempered at the mention of Lin Jingxuan. It looked like the video clip she had received earlier on her phone had been sent by him as well. Perhaps he was the person who had asked her out tomorrow too.

“What do you think?”

Precisely because he had discovered the real culprit, he dared not make a rash move. Lin Jingxuan was her life, so he pretended he did not know the truth and continued to indulge in his days with her. He was really afraid that if he were to do something, he would ruin their good days together and she would disappear from his life once and for all. Subconsciously, he dared not believe her promise to him.

Disgust filled her for a brief moment.

“That woman isn't me!” She lifted her small face as she declared this solemnly.

“I know,” he mumbled.

How could he have swallowed this if that had been her, really?

She sighed in relief. It was good that he knew. Lin Jingxuan had left an indelible mark on her man's mind. “Mo Jiangye, I'm your woman. Lin Jingxuan is nothing in my heart. Nothing at all…”

She wanted to rea.s.sure him hundreds and thousands of times if needed. She did not want him to live in fear anymore.

“Prove it to me, Baby Ruo.” He voiced out his need for a.s.surance word by word.
