Chapter 4 Mysterious Challenges Lead to Hot Searches on Weibo 2
Under Yuan Ye's strong leadership, Ye Xiaoling followed him with a dusty face and walked back to the hidden and secluded seat in Starbucks. Gu Nan, who had been sitting there without moving, seemed to be prepared. The smile on his face became more and more proud, and his fingers tapped on the cup, making a crisp and rhythmic sound.
"Hi! Xiao Ling! Nice to meet you again!" For some reason, Ye Xiao Ling felt that he deserved a beating when she heard his voice. "I told you there would always be a chance, didn't I?"
Yuan Ye glanced at him calmly, then naturally pulled out a chair for Ye Xiaoling and said with a smile, " Girls of your age like sweet things. I took the initiative to order a strawberry frappuccino for you. Please sit down first."
Ye Xiaoling pursed her lips stubbornly, looking at the refreshing and tempting drink in front of her, but she felt that the anger in her heart was rapidly expanding at an unstoppable rate, and the scorching temperature made her throat hoarse and dry.
Why... they seem so calm?
Don’t they feel the slightest bit of guilt when faced with themselves being deceived?
"What's wrong? Where do you feel uncomfortable?" Not getting an answer, Yuan Ye couldn't help but frown and continued to ask patiently.
Why did she look so...dangerous again?
"Of course I feel uncomfortable." Ye Xiaoling answered frankly, "I feel uncomfortable just seeing you. Don't you have anything to say to me?"
"Ha——Yuan Ye! She's angry!" Gu Nan teased without thinking of the consequences.
A glimmer of understanding flashed across Yuan Ye's eyes, and then he pursed his lips helplessly, sighed and said, "It is indeed not good for us to use this method to determine your identity, but there is no other way to contact you. I apologize first, please don't be angry, okay?"
The deep and pleasant voice was like a soft and soothing piano sound, which gradually soothed Ye Xiaoling's inner grievance and madness.
Her lips trembled a few times, but she still whispered: "Then your following Ling Zheng before was not accidental, was it all planned?"
Yuan Ye's eyes were a little evasive, but he still nodded: "That's right."
Because he mistakenly thought that Ling Zheng was the real Luan Ma, when Ye Xiaoling appeared he didn't think too much about it and just thought she was an insignificant person.
and……
Yuan Ye's expression became solemn again, and his bright eyes fell on Ye Xiaoling again.
Who would have thought that the person with extremely outstanding operating skills and who is called an e-sports god by many players might be such a young and dull girl?
Although multiple pieces of evidence have accurately pointed to Ye Xiaoling, Yuan Ye still can't believe the truth.
The slender fingers circled the coffee cup. Yuan Ye thought for a while and was about to continue asking, but he saw Ye Xiaoling raised her head angrily, her eyes slightly red, her chest heaving violently, and an extremely violent anger emanating from her whole body. Even the guests sitting not far away couldn't help but look in this direction frequently.
What are you doing?
Having suffered several times, Yuan Ye immediately tensed up and subconsciously took a defensive stance.
His knee wound hasn't healed yet!
"You guys - you've really gone too far!" Ye Xiaoling didn't care about other people's looks. She seemed to have exhausted all her strength and said it word by word, "Since you admit that following Ling Zheng was not accidental, it means that you have bad intentions towards Ling Zheng, right?"
Her angry roar echoed in the silent cafe.
Yuan Ye's eyes widened in shock, and he subconsciously asked, "Do you have any bad intentions?"
Is there something wrong with his ears?
Gu Nan almost spit out the coffee he had just sipped and he kept coughing. He looked at Ye Xiaoling's flushed cheeks in disbelief and couldn't utter a word for a long time.
What on earth is going on in Ye Xiaoling's head?
Looking at the ever-changing expressions of the two people in front of her, Ye Xiaoling mistakenly thought that their thoughts and plans were all exposed, and she was even more certain of this idea. Her voice unconsciously doubled: "Let alone anything else, you actually want to get close to Ling Zheng by trying to understand Taekwondo! Do you know that Taekwondo is also a very sacred thing in Ling Zheng's eyes? You actually..."
"Wait a minute! Do you know what you are saying?" Yuan Ye's spirit was on the verge of collapse, and the corners of his lips turned a deathly pale color.
Ye Xiaoling looked at him with her head held high: "Of course! And! If you want to know my identity, you don't need to use such a low method, right? Challenge on Weibo? Is it just to hype up your fame? Yuan Ye...you..." Her contemptuous gaze lingered on him for a long time, "I will never hand over my senior brother to such a hateful person like you!"
The fierce accusations quickly attracted the attention of the few guests.
Yuan Ye sat stiffly in the chair, his usual aura and elegance were shattered by Ye Xiaoling's few words. His deep eyes seemed to have lost their original luster, and the dark light of despair struggled to flash a few times, and then puffed - all went out.
Gu Nan's expression was very strange, neither crying nor laughing. He held his stomach tightly with one hand, and the corners of his mouth kept twitching upwards. Every time he wanted to say something, he was suppressed by the urge to laugh wildly.
"Hey... isn't that Yuan Ye?" The onlookers who didn't know the truth finally raised their mobile phones and quietly raised their doubts.
Yuan Ye's eyebrows jumped, his lips trembled, but he didn't say anything.
"What did the girl say just now?" The crowd started talking again, "Who is he plotting against?"
"Hiss——" The sound of someone gasping for air, "Does the name sound wrong?"
"No wonder he has never had a girlfriend, this is the reason..." He sighed as if he knew everything .
Amid the murmurs of discussion, Yuan Ye's face turned paler than paper. He gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, retaining his last bit of rationality, and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth: "Can you lower your voice a little... or..." He took a few breaths with difficulty, "Let's go to a quieter place to talk?"
If he continues to stay here, these onlookers will eat him alive, leaving not even a bone!
What's even more terrifying is if these horrific things get to my father's ears...
Gu Nan finally realized the severity of the situation, and he suppressed his smile again . He stood up and walked into the crowd to persuade them kindly: "Can you please delete all the photos and videos on your phone?"
The onlookers quickly pretended that it had nothing to do with them and laughed a few times, but there were still some people lingering not far away, still unsatisfied.
Silent pressure spread like ripples in the quiet coffee shop. Ye Xiaoling and Yuan Ye looked at each other in silence for a long time. They seemed to be able to hear each other's breathing, challenging everyone's patience which was already on the edge. Even the usually heartless Gu Nan felt that something big was going to happen.
"Let's go talk somewhere else?" Gu Nan asked tentatively.
Ye Xiaoling raised her head as if waking up from a dream, her fair cheeks flushed with rose-like rosy color again, but the sullen look in her eyes did not disappear. She shook her head in disgust and refused crisply: "There is nothing to say anymore. Since the challenge agreement has been made, I will not regret it. You decide the time. As for Ling Zheng--" She deliberately emphasized her tone, with a threatening light flashing in her eyes, "Don't get close to him again!"
Yuan Ye held his chest tremblingly, his thick eyelashes trembling violently: "No, I think there is one more thing that must be explained clearly..."
He is really not the pervert that Ye Xiaoling described!
No wonder when he was in Huayuan Pavilion, Ye Xiaoling's attitude changed drastically just because he spoke a few more words to Ling Zheng. It turned out that she had already made a judgment in her heart?
Yuan Ye, who had faced countless storms and waves without any fear and had solved them in the fastest and most rational way, suddenly felt at a loss. Could it be that even gods of her level are more difficult to control?
Ye Xiaoling vigilantly kept a distance from Yuan Ye, once again rejected the opportunity for him to explain, turned around and walked towards the door of the cafe. Before leaving, she did not forget to give Yuan Ye another even more contemptuous look!
She never wanted to have any more contact with such people again!
Yuan Ye stood up trembling all over, and without saying a word, he stretched out his hand to grab Ye Xiaoling's arm. Her contemptuous eyes seemed to be a bomb that destroyed his reason, and even made him forget how powerful and terrifying the killing power of the girl in front of him was...
The next moment, Yuan Ye's fingers had tightly grasped Ye Xiaoling's hot wrist!
His fingertips were even colder than she had imagined. Through her thin skin and throbbing blood vessels, she could feel the chill slowly and delicately freezing every active cell in her body, blooming into crystal clear ice flowers...
Ye Xiaoling's shoulders trembled, and her brain's reflexes were once again off. She subconsciously clasped her hands behind her and wanted to throw Yuan Ye to the ground. However, at this critical moment, her feet slipped slightly to the left...
Squeak——
The innocent coffee table shook violently a few times, the corner of the table rubbing against the ground, making a harsh sound, and then fell towards her with overwhelming force. Ye Xiaoling turned her head in panic, and even forgot to loosen her hands that were tightly clasped around Yuan Ye. The two of them twisted their bodies and fell to the ground at the same time...
Oops!
Ye Xiaoling closed her eyes in fear and subconsciously curled up her body, but the pain she had imagined did not come. She only heard an extremely noisy noise in her ears, and then her cheeks felt slightly itchy, as if being brushed by a breeze with a cool fragrance.
The table...didn't it fall on her?
She nervously opened her eyes a little, and the first thing that caught her eye was a few swaying strands of black hair. The thing that had just made her cheek itchy... was this the thing?
Next up…
Ye Xiaoling gulped and couldn't help swallowing.
Yuan Ye's handsome but pale face was only less than one-third of the distance from his nose. He was clenching his teeth and using all his strength to support the ground with both hands. The collapsed coffee table fell on his back, and the cups of still steaming coffee and iced drinks mixed with red jam slowly dripped from his back...
He used his body to create a safe space for her.
His hot and scorching breath was so close, mixed with the rich aroma of coffee and the scent of the clear perfume from his body and collar, forming a strange conflict, as if the whole world had fallen into inexplicable madness.
Ye Xiaoling felt as if two flames were burning and dancing on her cheeks, causing the blood in her body to boil...
what happened?
Was it Yuan Ye who just stepped forward to protect her?
And now... they seem to be a little too close, right?
Having become the center of sudden events time and time again, the huge noise this time once again attracted the attention of more customers. Gu Nan, who had originally planned to step forward to help, could only sigh with a helpless smile and continue to deal with the video and photo incidents.
The misunderstanding that Yuan Ye caused...let him solve it himself!
The coffee cup rolled pitifully on the ground for a few weeks before finally stopping in a corner not far away. Ye Xiaoling lay on the cold ground, and it took a lot of effort to barely utter a few words: "You, you, you don't think that you can get close to Ling Zheng by saving me. I absolutely don't agree..."
Yuan Ye interrupted her with a sullen look on his face: "Can't you just listen to what I have to say?"
As he scolded her angrily, his warm breath once again approached her ears, which were already burning. Ye Xiaoling was frightened and stretched out her hand like lightning to push Yuan Ye away. She rolled back and crawled away with a rejection expression, shaking her head like a rattle: "I won't believe anything you say now!"
After saying that, she completely ignored the various looks around her, grabbed the backpack on the ground, and ran out of the cafe.
In the quiet coffee shop, Yuan Ye sat on the ground expressionlessly, with a dark and terrifying look in his eyes, like the calm before a tsunami.
The brown coffee soaked a large area of his shirt, and a few drops dripped slowly along the outline of his hair.
He seemed like he was about to explode.
Seeing Yuan Ye like this, Gu Nan was a little scared. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but stepped forward and asked, "How about it? Do you still want this 'God of Chaos Code'?"
Yuan Ye silently took the tissue that Gu Nan handed over and wiped the coffee off his hair again and again. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and replied, "Of course!"
Gu Nan looked at him in awe: "You are awesome!"
Yuan Ye did not answer, but his hand movements gradually became slower.
Not to mention how much he had suffered for no reason in order to find out Luanma's identity, the other party actually mistook him for a pervert who would do anything for Ling Zheng?
No matter what, he must let Ye Xiaoling join his e-sports team!
