Chapter 1987 - Thrown Away
Chapter 1987: Thrown Away
The other time in the forest, Bo Cixue found that he would tense up unconsciously whenever she approached him.
Actually, she did not understand why he was still hugging her when he was clearly disgusted and uncomfortable.
He did not avoid her approach, his dark eyes staring fixedly at her.
Bo Cixue felt her scalp tingle from his gaze. “If you don’t let go, I’ll kiss you.”
He pursed his scarlet lips and clenched his jaw slightly.
Bo Cixue felt his grip on her waist tighten.
Her lips grazed the side of his face, pressing against his ear. “I drank quite a bit tonight and we’re almost at my house. Let’s meet at X Restaurant tomorrow night and have a good chat!”
She pulled his hands away from her waist and sat beside him.
She looked at him from the corner of her eye and his tensed body slowly returned to normal.
He was the Crown Prince and had seen all kinds of scenes. But she found that he seemed to be afraid of people kissing him and was unwilling to kiss others.
Bo Cixue did not want to think about why he did not want to be intimate with her but did such strange things to her.
Was it because he had fallen for her?
Bo Cixue really did not want to flatter herself like this!
Fortunately, the car arrived at the entrance of the Bo family’s house. Bo Cixue saw that Ye Jie was going to get out of the car to send her off and she quickly waved her hands. “Don’t send me out. I don’t want my mother to see me.”
Bo Cixue got out of the car and ran into the villa quickly.
When she was changing her shoes, her phone vibrated.
He received a message. “See you tomorrow night.”
Bo Cixue unlocked the phone and went into the living room in her slippers.
Yan Hua was watching television on the sofa and seeing Bo Cixue coming back, she waved. “Little Apple, stay with me for a while.”
Bo Cixue sniffed and smelled the wine on her. She said, “Mom, I’ll go up and take a bath first.”
She went upstairs.
Bo Cixue took a bath, changed her clothes, and went downstairs.
Seeing her long wet hair, Yan Hua took the hairdryer and dried her hair.
Looking at her little sweetheart who had grown into a grown woman, Yan Hua felt overcome with emotions.
“Little Apple, you’re already a grown girl and have your own opinions. Mom won’t interfere too much, but there’s something I have to ask you. Are you still unable to forget Xiaojie?”
Bo Cixue’s heart skipped a beat.
Had her mother recognized her and Ye Jie at the clubhouse?
Bo Cixue lowered her thick and black eyelashes and bit her lip. “Mom, from the moment I decided to study abroad three years ago, I told myself that I wouldn’t miss the past anymore.”
“I still have the same attitude when I came back this time.” Bo Cixue turned around and hugged Yan Hua, burying her face in her arms. “Mom, don’t worry about me. I won’t let myself fall into that valley again.”
That pain was no less painful than having one’s tendons and bones pulled out.
She did not want to experience that feeling again.
Yan Hua breathed a sigh of relief and patted Bo Cixue’s slender shoulders lightly. “It’s good that you have your own ideas.” When she saw Little Apple liking Xiaojie so much in the past, Yan Hua wanted the two children to be together even in her dreams.
But Bo Cixue had left the capital in pain three years ago and gone to a country she was not familiar with to study. She had come to a realization then.
She did not wish for her daughter to be rich, but to be happy.
As for Xiaojie, as the Crown Prince and the future King, he did not have that much time to be romantic and would not put all his attention on Little Apple.
Little Apple’s personality was not suited for the palace.
It was right that they were not together.
“Mom, I plan to return to school tomorrow.”
…
The next day.
Ye Jie was busy from morning to afternoon.
He had a meeting to receive foreign guests.
There was another video conference in the afternoon. After it ended, he got up and prepared to leave the office.
The secretary came in. “Your Highness, the King asked you to return to the palace for dinner tonight. He has invited Prince Shao.”
Ye Jie pursed his lips slightly. “I have some personal matters to attend to. I’ll be back later.”
Before the secretary could say anything, Ye Jie had already left.
The secretary pulled Ah Zuo. “His Highness never disobeyed the King before. What happened this time?”
Ah Zuo patted his secretary’s shoulder. “Didn’t you hear from His Highness that he has some personal matters? As his subordinates, we shouldn’t ask too much about his personal matters.”
…
Ye Jie had already asked Ah Zuo to call X Restaurant in advance and booked the entire restaurant tonight.
When he went over, there was a warm light in the restaurant and gentle and melodious piano music was playing. The environment was elegant and romantic.
Ye Jie sat down.
The restaurant owner welcomed him personally. “Your Highness, what would you like to drink?”
Ye Jie’s slender hand tapped lightly on the table, his side profile looking noble. “Nothing for now.”
Ye Jie waited for two hours.
It was long past dinner time.
The restaurant owner did not dare say anything. The restaurant manager and waiters stood in fear at the door.
The person the Crown Prince was waiting for was not here yet. Had they miss their appointment?
It was hard to imagine that there were people in this world who would reject the Crown Prince’s invitation!
Ye Jie waited for another two hours and the sky had turned completely dark.
He looked down at his phone.
Two hours ago, he had sent her a message. ‘I’ll wait for you at the restaurant.’
But there had been no reply.
Ah You walked into the dining room and looked at the man who had been sitting for several hours. He said carefully, “Your Highness, the King and Prince Shao are still waiting for you.”
Ye Jie said nothing, picked up his phone and called Bo Cixue.
But her phone was switched off.
He quickly put away his phone and stood up.
As he walked out, he instructed Ah You coldly, “Call the Yan family and ask if she went out.”
When Ye Jie got into the car, Ah You had already finished his call.
He looked at Ye Jie, who had his eyes slightly closed, and hesitated. “Your Highness, the servants of the Bo family said…”
Ye Jie opened his cold eyes. “She left?”
Ah You nodded. “Miss Bo took an afternoon flight back to M University.”
Ye Jie said nothing.
He returned to the palace with a calm expression and headed to Beicang with Ye Shao and Sikong Ling the next day.
After settling the matters there, he returned to the royal family and continued with his work.
He was busy every day and there was nothing unusual about it, but Ah Zuo and Ah You felt that he had increased the intensity of his work.
A week later, he returned to the palace late at night and picked up his phone habitually.
He made a call.
The phone was still switched off.
He found her WeChat, wanting to send something but the next second, he exited the screen quickly.
He sat in the car, his slender fingers massaging his temples.
Suddenly, he gave a low and slow laugh.
He did not want to admit it, but he had to admit that she had left just like that again!
And this time, she must have left without any hesitation!
…
When Tang Wu found out that Bo Cixue had returned to M University in advance and had gone on a vacation in M country, she sent a message to Bo Cixue’s phone number. “Sister, you’re alone!”
Tang Wu also wanted to go on a trip, but the next day was her fifth anniversary with Lin Xiurui.
Lin Xiurui had booked a yacht and the yacht had been decorated beautifully according to Tang Wu’s preference.
Tang Wu arrived at the yacht at the appointed time.
There were chefs and waiters from the hotel on the yacht and they had prepared a scrumptious meal.
Tang Wu looked around and felt that Lin Xiurui was quite thoughtful.
Tang Wu stood on the deck for a while before the hotel manager came over and informed her that all the dishes had been served.
She entered the room.
She received a call from Lin Xiurui. “Wuwu, I just received a call from the factory in the suburbs. There’s a fire there and there’s a very important batch of goods in the factory. I have to rush over and take a look.”
“Eat your food first. I’ll come back as soon as possible after I’m done!”
Tang Wu was not unreasonable and agreed easily.
She did not eat alone and instructed the hotel manager and waiter to leave first. She sat on the sofa and waited for Lin Xiurui.
The sound of raindrops sounded outside and Tang Wu leaned over the window to look outside.
It was raining.
He did not know how Lin Xiurui’s factory was doing.
Tang Wu pursed her lips and took out her phone to call him.
The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.
She should be busy.
Tang Wu did not call her again.
She waited for a long time. When it was around ten in the evening and he still hadn’t arrived, she took her phone, got up, and walked out of the yacht.
Maybe something serious had happened in the factory.
Tang Wu drove toward the factory on the outskirts.
When she arrived at the factory, she glanced out.
The factory was still in good condition and she found the guard. “Is your President Lin still in the factory? Have you found the cause of the fire?”
The guard did not know Tang Wu, but she was too charming and eye-catching. No one would be able to be hostile toward her. “It was just a small fire. Miss Meng has been managing here recently and it must have been an accident. The fire went out after CEO Lin came, but Miss Meng was injured a little. CEO Lin should have sent her to the hospital.”
Tang Wu hummed in agreement.
Back in the car, Tang Wu called Lin Xiurui again.
It rang twice before she hung up. When she called him again, his phone was turned off.
His phone must have run out of battery.
Tang Wu drove back to the city.
The pair of exquisite and charming eyes in the rearview mirror were void of any temperature.
Tang Wu really hated her intuition sometimes, but she was a person who could not tolerate any flaws.
Before the Lin family went bankrupt, she felt that she could spend the rest of her life with Lin Xiurui.
But after the Lin family went bankrupt, he became sensitive and suspicious. In order to make him feel secure, almost all of her friends were women.
Every year on his birthday, she would come back early to surprise him.
But this year, he had opened his own company and had not called or video called her in the past few months.
There was once when she called him and it was a KTV girl who answered. Later, Lin Xiurui woke up and called her back, even questioning if she did not trust him. She ignored him and hung up. Later, he sent a long message saying that she had changed and was tired of living with her.
They had a cold war for a month before she forgave him after he came to M Country to apologize personally.
But relationships with cracks would never return to normal.
In the past six months, they had been dating each other indifferently. She knew that their relationship was already like treading on thin ice!
