Ye Qiu asked with a smile.
"I haven't finished my work yet, this..."
"Miss Hong, you go with Palace Master Ye. We'll take care of things here. Don't worry, we'll pay you double for the settlement later."
Qin Zaitian immediately replied.
"No, no, double is not necessary. Whatever amount is fine. Well... thank you very much, Elder Qin."
Hong Zhenzhen bowed.
"It's alright, it's alright. Miss Hong, please don't be afraid of what just happened. The death of Li Feng is not a big deal. Even without Palace Master Ye's intervention, my Qin family can handle it." Qin Zaitian said with a smile.
"Mr. Qin, then I'll trouble you. I'll comfort Miss Hong and come to see you another day."
Ye Qiu took Hong Zhenzhen's hand and left.
When passing Song Siyu, Ye Qiu walked straight past her without even glancing at her for a second.
Song Siyu burst into tears instantly, her heart aching as if she were suffocating.
She realized that Ye Qiu had misunderstood her!
At this moment, Song Siyu felt very regretful and in great pain.
If I had known, I should have gone to find Ye Qiu first, instead of agreeing to attend the charity gala with Li Feng.
Outside, Ye Qiu and Hong Zhenzhen were strolling along the street, chatting as they walked.
With Ye Qiu's comforting words, Hong Zhenzhen finally calmed down a lot.
"Mr. Ye, that girl inside seems to like you a lot, why aren't you paying attention to her?"
Hong Zhenzhen asked.
"You must be mistaken. The person she loved is already dead inside," Ye Qiu said.
“No, not at all,” Hong Zhenzhen said. “I’m sure that girl likes you, not that arrogant Li Feng. So, you’ve probably misunderstood her.”
"It doesn't matter," Ye Qiu said softly. "I'm a bit fastidious when it comes to matters of the heart."
"You mean, even if nothing happens between her and other men when she goes out to events together, you still can't accept it?"
Hong Zhenzhen asked.
"Not entirely, but that's roughly the idea," Ye Qiu said with a smile. "Because it's giving other men a chance. Of course, she's not my girlfriend, not before, and not in the future. If I were to find a girlfriend, I'd prefer someone like you."
"Huh? Why?"
Hong Zhenzhen was somewhat surprised, but at the same time, she felt a strange little bit of smugness.
Ye Qiu said, "Haven't I told you that your appearance and figure are very similar to that Zhen Ying from a certain dynasty? Hmm, you both have the surname Hong, are you two twin sisters?"
"No, that's not true. Humph, if you think I'm fat, just say so. Stop beating around the bush. It's annoying."
Hong Zhenzhen rolled her eyes at Ye Qiu, then laughed and said, "It's not that I'm popular, but some people have actually said that I look like her. I even learned some of her dances because of that, and they were really interesting."
"For example, what kind of dance? Like the rice cake dance?"
"Oh dear, I've learned a little bit of this, but I'm not very good at it."
"Come on, let me watch your performance." Ye Qiu gestured for him to enter.
"No." Hong Zhenzhen shook her head: "How could I possibly dance like that on the main street? If you want to see it, let's talk about it another time."
Ye Qiu shrugged: "Okay, then I won't watch it."
"Are you angry?" Hong Zhenzhen said, "Why don't you add me on WeChat? When I get home, I'll record a video and show it to you, okay?"
"Are you home, is that convenient?"
“It’s convenient. I live alone; there’s no one else around,” Hong Zhenzhen said.
"I live alone..."
Ye Qiu gave Hong Zhenzhen a meaningful look: "How about I come with you to your house to watch you dance?"
"Oh dear, don't push your luck. Humph, don't think I don't know that none of you men are any good. We've only just met, and you're already thinking about all sorts of frivolous things. I'm not going to let a wolf into my house."
"Is it possible that instead of letting the wolf into the house, we invited the wolf into the house?" Ye Qiu suddenly approached Hong Zhenzhen.
Hong Zhenzhen stared at Ye Qiu's handsome and flawless face and his deep, captivating starry eyes, and was momentarily stunned.
If I could really be with him, it would seem like a good thing, something to look forward to.
Ah, Hong Zhenzhen, what are you thinking about?
Hong Zhenzhen quickly pinched her thigh, looked away, and said nervously, "Don't talk nonsense, and... and don't get so close to me, I'm shy."
"You're shy, which means the trauma from what happened at the party has passed, that's good. Where do you live? I'll take you home."
Ye Qiu chuckled softly.
Hong Zhenzhen was slightly taken aback before she realized what was happening.
It turns out he was deliberately making fun of himself to distract himself.
For some reason, Hong Zhenzhen suddenly felt a wave of loss wash over her, a feeling that went deep into her bones.
"What are you staring at? I'm asking you a question."
Ye Qiu nudged Hong Zhenzhen.
Hong Zhenzhen snapped out of her daze and stared at Ye Qiu with a complicated look in her eyes: "So, are you going to add me on WeChat or not?"
