Chapter Twelve: Yelling at her like a child
The room was lit when she left. The maid must have turned it off after cleaning. The faint minty scent was probably sprayed by the maid to purify the air and remove odors.
It seems Yan Ye has a particular fondness for the scent of mint. Not only does he have a faint minty fragrance on his body, but he also uses mint-scented air freshener in his room.
There was a remote control for the light bulb by the door, but Yue Yirou didn't dare to turn it on. She could only grope her way toward the trash can she remembered.
After a moment, her vision gradually adjusted to the dim light in the room, and the trash can appeared faintly in her line of sight.
She was getting closer; just a few more steps and she would reach the trash can. This time, she should be able to get Tingyun's white jade pendant back.
The thought that Yan Ye had thrown Tingyun's precious white jade pendant into the trash can filled her with resentment, and she couldn't help but curse Yan Ye in her heart.
Just as I was cursing in my heart, suddenly, with a whoosh, the window was pulled open, and bright sunlight shone in from outside, instantly illuminating every corner of the room.
Yue Yirou then noticed that a tall, slender figure, exuding a chilling aura, was standing by the window with his back to her.
Who else could it be but Yan Ye?
Having already reached the trash can and just squatted down to rummage through the garbage, Yue Yirou was so frightened that she collapsed onto the floor in a panic.
"Guess what I saw while I was standing here?" Yan Ye asked quietly, his back to her.
Yue Yirou's face turned deathly pale, as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and her whole body felt chilled to the bone.
He knows everything.
The trash can was right in front of her, but Yue Yirou didn't reach out to rummage through it, because she knew it was impossible to find Lu Tingyun's white jade pendant there.
With a deathly pale face, she got up from the floor and looked at the tall, indifferent figure in front of the window. She felt like a weak ant, so weak that she couldn't describe it. No matter how she resisted, she couldn't escape his grasp.
"You're very clever; you even guessed that I would disgustedly throw Lu Tingyun's things into the trash can. But..."
Yan Ye paused for a moment, then slowly turned around and glared at her fiercely. His hands were clenched into fists, his starry eyes were full of anger, his thin lips were pressed tightly together, and his face was terribly gloomy.
He looked like a bloodthirsty demon, and Yue Yirou felt a surge of fear, instinctively wanting to turn and run away.
Suddenly, something was moving in my field of vision.
Yan Ye loosened his clenched fist, and a crystal-clear white jade pendant slid from his palm, swaying in the air.
Yue Yirou recognized it immediately; it was Lu Tingyun's white jade pendant.
His legs suddenly felt like they were filled with lead, and he couldn't take another step, standing there blankly.
Are you making a fool of me?
A cold, emotionless voice drifted into Yue Yirou's ears, sending a chill down her spine and intensifying her fear.
To say that he was being treated like a monkey is an overstatement.
"No, no." Yue Yirou shook her head repeatedly, "I just, I just..."
"Just what? Just taking care of your urgent need to pee and then quietly contemplating in front of a pile of vomit?"
"..." Yue Yirou was speechless.
"Consider quietly? Ha, I was so stupid to think you were really willing to consider accepting me. It turns out it was just a delaying tactic. You never intended to accept me from the beginning." Yan Ye's emotions grew more and more agitated, and his voice became louder and louder.
As Yan Ye's voice grew louder, the chill actually lessened.
No longer like a bloodthirsty demon, but rather like a child who was deceived after being told he would buy candy, he angrily and aggrievedly yelled at the person who had cheated him.
