"Heh... it's not really a conflict, I just see things more clearly now."
"With three thousand streams of weak water, why must one drink from only one ladle?"
Jiang Che let out a light chuckle, appearing somewhat open-minded, but... how could he, as an antagonist, possibly let Ye Mengyao off the hook?
"Good!!!"
Jiang Yunli slapped his thigh in approval, his eyes filled with agreement as he looked at his son.
"I've long seen through the nature of that Ye family daughter, always stringing my son along?"
"And they call her a proper young lady? I'd say she's just a high-class green tea bitch!"
Jiang Yuan nodded silently. Although he had hoped for the Ye family's daughter to become his daughter-in-law, after all, childhood sweethearts would have made for a beautiful story, but since Jiang Che didn't like her... the doors of the Jiang family would no longer be open to her.
......
In the Ye family villa.
Ye Mengyao wasn't in a good mood; rather, she felt somewhat down.
She couldn't even focus on her test papers, her mind constantly replaying Jiang Che's distant gaze from earlier that day.
"Sister Mengyao, why are you thinking about that awful man?"
Yu Wan'er was wearing bear-themed pajamas, her wet hair falling down naturally, looking absolutely adorable and cuddly.
Being clever, she immediately saw through Ye Mengyao's thoughts.
She also knew clearly that this wasn't love... but rather a habit!
She had grown accustomed to Jiang Che's presence, accustomed to the special treatment he gave her. Perhaps Ye Mengyao did like Jiang Che at first, but such feelings had transformed into entitlement through habit.
And when Jiang Che started ignoring her, it created an intense sense of loss.
"Jiang Che is just a huge jerk!!!"
Yu Wan'er cursed out loud. Just thinking about how that scoundrel had stolen her first kiss earlier that day... made her want to cry.
At least he had deleted those videos. Otherwise, if he had continued to threaten her into doing even more outrageous things, she couldn't even imagine the consequences.
Ye Mengyao furrowed her brows.
"Wan'er, you seem to really hate Jiang Che?"
She was confused, as Jiang Che didn't seem to have any past conflicts with Yu Wan'er.
In fact, as her best friend, Yu Wan'er would even get a share whenever Jiang Che brought milk tea and snacks for her.
"Sister Mengyao, I'm just angry on your behalf! Even if they're not lovers, walking a classmate home... isn't that just basic courtesy between classmates?"
Yu Wan'er thought quickly and found an excuse.
"Actually... I don't hate him that much, it's just because I have androphobia"
Ye Mengyao mumbled softly.
Just then, her phone rang.
Ye Mengyao opened it with anticipation, but upon seeing the name, she felt somewhat disappointed.
Though she wasn't sure why she felt disappointed.
"Hey, Dad, what's the matter?"
A deep voice came from the other end, "Mengyao, if you don't like Jiang Che... then let it be. After all, forced relationships never work out."
"Also, I have something else to tell you. Our family has many business rivals, and for your safety... I'm planning to hire a bodyguard at great expense to protect you personally!"
Ye Mengyao's beautiful eyes narrowed.
"A bodyguard? Male or female?"
Ye's Father paused for a moment, "Male."
Ye Mengyao immediately responded, "I don't want one."
She already had androphobia, and now they wanted a man to protect her? And personal protection at that?
She feared she would be sick to death!
"Be good, your safety is very important right now, and this bodyguard is an expert I've hired at great expense!"
Ye's Father tried to persuade her patiently.
"Is the focus on the bodyguard? It's about being personal protection!" Ye Mengyao's voice grew sharp.
"But without that, how can we ensure your protection?" Ye Changfeng said helplessly.
"If he can't protect me without being personal, how can he be called an expert?"
"My precious daughter, how can he protect you without being close by?"
"Why does protecting me require such close proximity?"
Ye Mengyao snorted coldly.
Before today, she might have agreed to this male bodyguard arrangement.
Because she needed someone to shield her from Jiang Che's relentless pursuit.
But now... it seemed unnecessary.
Jiang Che apparently didn't want her anymore—
At this thought, she felt an inexplicable sense of grievance.
"Hey... daughter..."
"Beep beep beep—"
The call was hung up.
......
"Hehe... Mr. Ye Changfeng, it seems your daughter doesn't like me very much?"
Next to Ye's Father stood a somewhat arrogant young man.
It was the protagonist blessed by fate, the descending wild dragon — Lin Yu!
Indeed quite wild, though his features were rather ordinary, there was a kind of devilish charm between his brows.
Ye Changfeng could only sigh.
"My daughter has always been like this, lacking proper discipline..."
"It's fine, I'm always tolerant with girls," Lin Yu stood with his hands in his pockets, tilting his head 45 degrees to gaze at the sky, striking a pose against the void.
"Since Mengyao isn't willing to have you as her personal bodyguard, I'm afraid we'll have to apologize"
Ye Changfeng's words instantly broke through Lin Yu's facade.
"Wait... Mr. Ye, I think I can still be qualified as a bodyguard!"
He had seen Ye Mengyao's photos, and truthfully... he had never seen such a beautiful girl!
The moment he saw Ye Mengyao's picture, he had already designated her as his future woman. Even if he had to pay to protect her, he would be willing.
"My daughter has androphobia... personal protection is probably impossible"
"I can only arrange for you to enter Mengyao's school then. You can be her classmate... protect her safety during school hours! I'll arrange separate accommodation for you at night"
Ye Changfeng's words made Lin Yu's mood plummet.
He had been hoping to provide personal protection, sharing meals and lodging... perhaps sparking something between them.
Now it seemed... the road ahead would be long and difficult!
Yes, he still hadn't given up his ulterior motives.
"Fine, if not personal protection, then so be it. I'll be responsible for Mengyao's safety from now on"
Lin Yu patted his chest, full of confidence.
