Chapter 3 The Rival's Provocation



After sending the message, Ye Tianyu remained calm.

In the past, when Liu Qingyao returned, she would be furious, accusing him of being stingy and unreasonable.

He would also erupt in anger like a volcano, arguing with her endlessly.

But now, he's come to terms with it and let it go.

Half an hour later, the sound of a key turning in the lock signaled Liu Qingyao's return.

Ye Tianyu calmly scrolled through his phone, not even looking up or making a sound.

On her way back, Liu Qingyao was already prepared to have a fight with Ye Tianyu.

However, upon entering, Ye Tianyu appeared unusually calm.

She was surprised. Wasn't Ye Tianyu posting that video just to prove her infidelity and make a scene?

Why do you act like nothing happened?

Since Ye Tianyu didn't lose his temper, she didn't want to, so she just walked over.

"Tianyu, I don't care who sent you that video."

"But I have to tell you, Gu Tingchen and I..."

She tried to explain, but Ye Tianyu waved his hand, interrupting her.

"No need to explain, I didn't question you!"

Liu Qingyao was completely dumbfounded.

Ye Tianyu seems like a completely different person tonight, unlike anyone he's ever been before?

Since Gu Tingchen returned more than half a year ago, whenever she goes on a date with him, holds his hand, or puts her arm around his shoulder, Ye Tianyu gets extremely jealous and starts a huge fight with her.

But tonight, when he saw the video of Gu Tingchen feeding him wine with his own mouth, he didn't get angry and remained so calm, which was so unlike the Ye Tianyu of the past.

Ye Tianyu's sudden generosity made her feel uneasy. She had originally wanted to break up, but now she couldn't bring herself to say it.

She frowned: "Ye Tianyu, even if you don't let me explain, I'm going to explain!"

"What happened between Gu Tingchen and me was just a prank by our old classmates, a game to amuse us!"

"We have nothing at all?"

Ye Tianyu sneered inwardly at her haste to explain.

She's already gone to a hotel with Gu Tingchen, and she still dares to say nothing happened.

If Qin Hao hadn't sent a message to remind him, he would already be completely cuckolded.

However, since their relationship had already come to an end, he didn't expose it, but pointed to the platinum necklace next to him.

"This is a holiday gift for you!"

"It's getting late, I need to go to sleep. I have to set up my stall tomorrow!"

Liu Qingyao glanced at the necklace and a sudden feeling of guilt rose in her heart.

Ye Tianyu doesn't earn much money by selling roasted sweet potatoes at a street stall.

He would need to save for at least several months to afford the necklace.

On such important days as an anniversary and Valentine's Day, isn't it a bit much to leave him behind and go out to flirt with your ex?

However, the guilt was fleeting; Gu Tingchen still held an important place in her heart.

She softly said, "Thank you!"

Ye Tianyu had already entered the bedroom.

Seeing his sudden unusual behavior, Liu Qingyao felt something was wrong, as if a storm was brewing.

However, she had no time to think about it at the moment.

Meeting with Fang Xueqing tomorrow to discuss project cooperation is of paramount importance.

Due to the sluggish market economy, the Liu Group has recently encountered some problems, with its business declining sharply. It now needs new projects to support itself; otherwise, the company risks falling into difficulties.

The Fang Group is a large conglomerate in Jiangnan with a solid foundation and extensive business, making it a sought-after partner for numerous companies.

A few days ago, she went to great lengths and relied on acquaintances to get a reply from Fang Xueqing, who agreed to give her a project and they would discuss the details tomorrow.

Whether the Liu Group can escape its predicament depends on the outcome of tomorrow's negotiations with Fang Xueqing.

Therefore, she had no time to analyze Ye Tianyu's unusual behavior tonight.

I grabbed a towel and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

After letting go, Ye Tianyu felt no pressure and slept soundly that night, not even noticing when Liu Qingyao went to bed.

The next day, when I got up, Liu Qingyao had already gone out.

Ye Tianyu knew that she was going to Fang's Group to discuss a project with Fang Xueqing.

He didn't care about Liu Qingyao's future right now; setting up his stall and selling roasted sweet potatoes was more important.

It's too hot today, so business isn't good. By the afternoon, I hadn't even made two hundred yuan.

Ye Tianyu looked bitter. When would this kind of business ever end?

Saving money for big things and taking care of my adoptive mother in the countryside—life is really tough.

At that moment, a person stood in front of his stall.

"Hey, sweet potato guy, you're out roasting sweet potatoes in this heat, you're really going all out!"

"However, no matter how hard you try, it's useless; you'll never change your fate of being a poor dog!"

Ye Tianyu looked up upon hearing the sound, and his face immediately darkened.

What a small world! It turns out to be his love rival, Gu Tingchen.

That bastard is provoking us again.

Ye Tianyu ignored him and looked down at the sweet potatoes on the grill.

Seeing that Ye Tianyu remained silent, Gu Tingchen did not give up and a sinister smile appeared on his face.

"You're such a useless piece of trash. Yesterday was Valentine's Day, and Liu Qingyao would rather spend time with me than with you!"

"Let me tell you something. Last night, Liu Qingyao and I almost did *that*."

Ye Tianyu glanced at him, a hint of disdain on his lips, but remained silent.

He felt that responding to a spoiled brat like Gu Tingchen was a waste of breath.

Gu Tingchen was very unhappy that Ye Tianyu didn't take his provocation seriously.

His scheme, which he laid out by the sea three years ago, failed. Instead, it led Liu Qingyao into Ye Tianyu's arms, and the two lived together for three years.

His ex-boyfriend, aside from having intimate contact with Liu Qingyao, had never actually been intimate with her.

Last night, I was about to get down to business with Liu Qingyao.

But Ye Tianyu's message caused the good deed to fall through again, making him both jealous and resentful.

Therefore, I came here today specifically to humiliate Ye Tianyu.

"Smack!"

Pick up a roasted sweet potato and smash it on the ground!

What do you want to do?

Ye Tianyu straightened up and looked at him coldly.

Seeing that Ye Tianyu had reacted, Gu Tingchen became smug and revealed an arrogant smile.

"I'm rich and I can do whatever I want. I'm going to throw your sweet potatoes around and play with them. Go ahead and brag!"

"I'll take all the sweet potatoes on your grill!"

As he spoke, he pulled out a wad of banknotes and threw them on the ground!

"One thousand yuan, that should be enough to compensate you, right?"

Then he picked up a sweet potato and was about to throw it on the ground.

Ye Tianyu suddenly reached out and grabbed his wrist, speaking coldly.

"Don't cross my line."

"You should know that my hobby is martial arts. I was the school's fighting champion back in the day, and I'll beat you up anytime without hesitation!"

"My sweet potatoes are for customers to eat, not for you to throw around and play with!"

"Pick up your filthy money and get out of here!"

"Sweet potato guy, you..."

Gu Tingchen's wrist was in pain and he couldn't move it; his face turned bright red.

That's right, he knew that Ye Tianyu wasn't particularly skilled in other areas, but during his university years, his martial arts skills were second to none.

If I were to make a move, he would definitely pin me to the ground and grind me down.

Gu Tingchen, who had intended to humiliate Ye Tianyu, was instead outmaneuvered by him, and became furious with embarrassment.

As soon as Ye Tianyu released his hand, his face immediately contorted into a ferocious expression.

"Kid, don't get cocky."

"I'm telling you, Liu Qingyao and Fang Xueqing successfully negotiated a project cooperation this morning."

"The signing ceremony will be held tomorrow. During the celebration, she will announce her breakup with you on the spot, and then get engaged to me!"

"Your woman has finally returned to my side; you can slowly be tormented by the pain."
