Chapter 1135: I Would Do That for Her but Would You?


She had lost her sense of self because of that relations.h.i.+p and did not even dare to talk back to Mo Yixuan and Li Qin no matter how much she suffered under them. She did not dare argue with Li Qin even after Mo Yixuan brought Xia Yuwei home.


She was not a good-natured woman and she would occasionally get into fights with others when she was still a student. However, she was extremely obedient around Mo Yixuan and had never once spoken harshly to him.


She felt very upset each time she thought about the past.


It was as though the feelings that she had forcibly suppressed and the cowardice she had displayed during that period came back to haunt her.


A teardrop rolled down the corner of her eyes and landed on her pillow.


He Xiyan took a deep breath but her eyes remained closed.


Fortunately, she was just pretending to sleep, so she could use this opportunity to figure out what those two men were thinking and their thought process.


Ye Hao’s hand rested on the windowsill and under the light, it was clear that his expression had changed rapidly and his face turned ashen.


He bit his lips and his left hand clenched into a fist, relaxed, then clenched into a fist again. He repeated this motion several times as Mo Yixuan fanned the flames of anger and jealousy.


He was extremely jealous and this jealousy ate at him.


It was true that he had never experienced what Mo Yixuan had.


Mo Yixuan looked at Ye Hao and clocked his ashen expression and the jealousy that burned in his eyes.


Just as he expected, Yan Yan did not treat Ye Hao as well as she used to treat him. In other words, this must meant that Yan Yan wasn’t deeply in love with Ye Hao.


“Ye Hao…” Mo Yixuan said. “Don’t pine after someone whose heart doesn’t lie with you.”


Ye Hao’s face turned a shade paler and his chest heaved rapidly.


No other man would wish to hear about how the woman he loved had once loved another man.


Ye Hao was silent for a long while and he struggled to control his emotions. He frowned and his heart skipped rapidly.


Then, He Xiyan who lay in bed moved her fingers slightly.


She was waiting for Ye Hao’s response but after some time, she did not hear his response, as though he wasn’t even in the room.


She was about to open her eyes to peek at their expressions when she suddenly heard Ye Hao’s voice.


He said coldly, “Mo Yixuan, you are truly an aloof, selfish, and ungrateful man… Yan Yan wouldn’t have to take any photographs secretly nor make any sketches when she’s with me because I will be the one who is courting her. I wouldn’t let her use her hard-earned money to buy me presents because I will give her enough money to spend. She can spend as much as she wishes. She wouldn’t need to wait up until the wee hours for me to come home after work because I will knock off on the dot in order to go home and keep her company. As for making your favorite dishes, I will cook her favorite dishes, spicy shrimp, mapo tofu, dry pot chicken… in fact, I know how to cook her favorite dishes, do you?”


Mo Yixuan was speechless.


He froze in surprise and his face turned very pale. The smug expression was gone and his face immediately turned ghostly pale.


He frowned and his cheeks stung as though he had been slapped.


His heart raced, not from excitement but because he felt appalled by his own actions.


He had indeed done none of the above for Yan Yan.


He did not give her any presents, neither did he give her any money during the four years they were together. Although he told her that she could come to him if she needed money, she had never once done so.
