Question: What if your boss is your ex-girlfriend?
Answer: You'll lose at least a layer of skin, if you don't die.
Question: What if your ex-girlfriend is also a yandere?
...
Ye Xiaotian insisted.
"No, you promised me, and besides, the doctor said that you can't live alone because of your condition. Don't you know it's very dangerous?"
"fine."
Su Luo snatched the suitcase and strode to the door.
I feel it's quite dangerous to live with Ye Xiaoman. She has so many fans. If some obsessive fan were to live with her, they might do something extreme. It's not safe.
Just as his hand touched the doorknob, Ye Xiaoman's melodious metallic voice came from behind him, her tone clearly mocking.
Are you afraid of me?
In the past, Su Luo could have pretended not to hear these words, or even frankly said, "Yes, I'm afraid of you."
But for some reason, hearing these words now feels incredibly harsh, like I'm being looked down upon.
He decisively released the doorknob, turned around, looked Ye Xiaoman straight in the eye, and retorted.
"Who said I'm afraid of you?"
Ye Xiaoman scoffed and sneered, "Then why are you running away? Are you afraid I'll eat you up?"
Before Su Luo was discharged from the hospital, she spoke with the psychiatrist who was in charge of Su Luo. The doctor said that he now loathed his former self because he had suffered a major trauma.
Although her personality is mostly the opposite of what it used to be, she occasionally reveals her past personality.
At this point, it will rebound as soon as it is slightly stimulated.
So it seems that her deliberate attempt to provoke Su Luo was very effective.
Upon hearing this, Su Luo instantly lost her temper. Her disdainful attitude was infuriating, and she retorted defiantly.
"Then I'm not leaving!"
Ye Xiaoman was secretly pleased, but her expression remained arrogant, with her chin slightly raised.
"I didn't stop you. You can leave if you want, nobody cares."
"..."
Su Luo's lips moved, but no sound came out.
Ye Xiaoman's appearance was both familiar and unfamiliar to him.
For a fleeting moment, he felt that Ye Xiaoman bore a resemblance to Song Lingshan—that arrogant and haughty attitude, and the oppressive aura that had been built up over time by money and status.
What's strange is that she was all smiles and gentle when she took care of me at the hospital a few days ago, but today she's suddenly acting like a completely different person.
This puzzling conversation between the two left Ye Xiaotian, who was standing to the side, completely bewildered.
"???"
Huh?
Wait a minute, what's going on?
How could Su Luo have fallen for her sister's trap so easily, with such a rude attitude?
That's not right. Su Luo wasn't like this before. She should have ignored her sister's provocation and just left.
Sure enough, Su Luo really is mentally ill.
Su Luo didn't want to argue with Ye Xiaoman anymore, so she could only drag her luggage upstairs to her room and quickly close the door.
Seeing Su Luo angrily return to her room, Ye Xiaotian leaned close to his sister and whispered a question.
"Sis, what exactly are you trying to do? Why did you move in here? Didn't I tell you he's Song Lingshan's ex-boyfriend? Aren't you really okay with that? Besides, he's been married before, and although he's single now, his romantic history is so complicated. You don't actually still have feelings for him, do you?"
Ye Xiaoman asked a pointed question in return.
Before you try to control me, shouldn't you take a look at yourself?
Even though her younger brother had found a girlfriend, the way he looked at Su Luo was still incredibly lewd. After being enlightened by A Xing, she finally understood why her brother wasn't going to Su Luo's wedding.
It turns out he was just like me, afraid of the heartache of leaving.
Now he insists on taking her to live with him, his feelings for Su Luo have completely gone beyond brotherly affection.
Ye Xiaotian felt a little guilty and asked nervously.
"What's wrong with me? You can't just say things like that. I'm not interested in him at all."
"Stop making excuses. Let me tell you, you'd better give up on that idea. You have a girlfriend now, and you can't let her down. If you do, I'll definitely break your legs."
Ye Xiaoman has already investigated Lin Xiyue's family background and past information. She is an innocent and clean-cut girl who has not had any scandals in the two years she has been an actress. Her family is also very well-off.
Ye Xiaotian lowered his head in frustration, "I know..."
At that moment, the phone in his pocket started vibrating. Ye Xiaotian answered the call and heard Lin Xiyue crying without saying a word. He panicked instantly.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"I miss you so much... Waaah..."
"Don't cry, where are you?"
"I'm still on set..."
"Okay, okay, don't cry, I'll come pick you up right away."
After hanging up the phone, Ye Xiaotian asked his sister to take care of Su Luo and to call him anytime if there were any problems.
Ye Xiaoman nodded slightly, suppressing a smile, "Go quickly."
This girl helped her without her even realizing it; she was just looking forward to spending some time alone with Su Luo.
Ye Xiaotian changed his clothes and hurriedly left home.
Ye Xiaoman stretched and started packing her things, choosing the room next to Su Luo's.
The sky gradually darkened.
The nanny is busy preparing dinner in the kitchen.
Before long, a large table of dishes was prepared, and Ye Xiaoman and Su Luo were invited down to eat.
Su Luo originally wanted to order takeout, but then she thought that since she was already here, there was no reason not to eat. She couldn't just eat takeout every day just to avoid Ye Xiaoman.
Besides, he shouldn't be afraid of her, nor does he need to avoid her. It's her business if he likes her; he just needs to not respond.
With that in mind, Su Luo went downstairs and sat down at the dining table without any hesitation.
Ye Xiaoman sat down opposite Su Luo. Seeing that Su Luo didn't speak and just ate silently, she didn't speak either.
The two ate quietly like that.
Halfway through the meal, Ye Xiaoman finally couldn't resist and spoke first.
"Xiao Luo, what are your plans for the future?"
They couldn't just stay home every day, so Su Jianni and her brother had been searching and doing everything they could, but there was still no news.
Furthermore, the doctor advised Sulo to find something to do, otherwise staying at home every day would not do any good for her condition and might even worsen it.
Su Luo paused slightly in her chopsticks, looking bewildered.
"I haven't decided yet..."
He really didn't know what to do. He had been through so much lately, and suddenly having free time made it seem like his life had lost its purpose.
Ye Xiaoman suggested, "Our company happens to be hiring a photographer, why don't you give it a try?"
If Su Luo could work with her, that would be perfect; she could watch over him 24/7.
"I'll think about it."
Going back to my old profession would be easy, but photographers don't earn much.
He wanted to earn more money so he could give Su Jiani a better life when she returned.
By the way, he has a goal now. His goal is to make more money, lots and lots of money, and completely say goodbye to his past impoverished self.
“Okay, no need to rush. If you don’t want to be a photographer, you can tell me what you want to do, and I can arrange it for you.”
If Su Luo didn't come to her company to work as a photographer, she could tell her brother and find a leisurely job at her family's company.
