Ye Chen returned to the hospital with a smell of alcohol.
The hospital was originally their family’s property, and since his parents and sister were currently in the hospital for treatment, he also arranged a room for himself. He had been sleeping next door to the family in order to take care of at any time.
Before dinner tonight, he had booked a number of bottles of red and white wine. He originally just wanted to go through the motions of ordering wine for the date, but unexpectedly, he ended up finishing the wine.
Ji Mingxia was a student, and didn’t drink alcohol that often, so he got drunk after a few sips of red wine.
Ye Chen could drink a little better than him, so he had a lot more than Ji Mingxia.
The dinner felt like he was chewing wax, so he didn’t feel anything. It was only after they were ready to go home that he noticed he was drunk. Let alone sending Ji Mingxia home, even walking on his own was a struggle.
After arranging for someone to send Ji Mingxia back to school, Ye Chen returned to the hospital under the escort of the driver.
He originally planned to go straight to the bathroom for a shower to sober up, but unexpectedly, he found someone already sitting inside once the door was opened.
“Ye Tian, why did you come over?” Ye Chen leaned against the door frame and asked.
Ye Tian was not yet healed and always had an IV on her hand. At the moment, she was sitting in Ye Chen’s living room watching TV.
She noticed that Ye Chen was drunk and her eyes immediately went wide: “Brother, how did you get so drunk?”
Ye Chen held the wall and slowly walked into the living room. He sat down on the single sofa exhaustedly and lowered his head without speaking.
Ye Tian saw him like this and said with concern: “I heard that you asked Mingxia to dinner tonight, and prepared flowers, wine and stuff …… I was curious so I came over to ask about the situation.”
Ye Chen was suddenly annoyed the moment she said those words, but his sister had just escaped from death and he was happy that she got out of bed to find him. He couldn’t lash out at her for nothing and could only look at her helplessly. “I’ve disappointed you, there is no fun to see, only a frustrated and embarrassed brother.”
“Where is the embarrassment and wretchedness? My brother is so handsome, even when he is drunk, he is still handsome.” Ye Tian flattered her brother and then asked, “So …… did your confession fail?”
Ye Chen remained silent and Ye Tian comforted him, “It is good to know the result when you are not yet that fond of him. Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning are well-matched, and sooner or later, you will also find the person that suits you.”
When Ye Chen heard Yu Ning’s name, his heart was immediately filled with nameless anger, and he could not help but sneer: “Well matched? They’re not a couple, what’s so good about being compatible?”
“But the school is all about the CP of the two of them, many people are supporting them to be together ah.” Ye Tian said.
“I don’t support it.” Ye Chen said firmly.
Ye Tian was stunned and she looked at Ye Chen suspiciously.
Ye Chen felt his sister’s gaze, and turned his face away as he said, “Ji Mingxia thinks I like Yu Ning.”
“Huh?” Ye Tian looked shocked, “He thinks you like Yu Ning? Why would he think that? How is that even possible!”
Ye Chen snorted coldly, “Because he likes Yu Ning, so he thinks that everyone in the world is like him.”
“So that’s how …… how thick of a filter does he have for him to misinterpret it like that!” Ye Tian sighed and suddenly asked with curiosity, “Then how did you explain it to him?”
Ye Tian’s personality had changed a lot since she woke up. She silently recuperates most of the time, and she only went back to her former vitality because of this topic.
Ye Chen looked at the excited Ye Tian, and decided to humor her. He told her what happened tonight and Ye Tian was stunned. She couldn’t believe that such an operation could be done and asked, “Why did you do that?”
Ye Chen said: “The plan is to let Ji Mingxia choose me.”
“He likes Yu Ning, how can he choose you ah?” Ye Tian complained.
Ye Chen said: “He and Yu Ning like each other and their relationship is so close, but they haven’t confessed to each other. This means that there must be an irreconcilable contradiction between them.”
“Irreconcilable contradiction?” Ye Tian was puzzled.
“Although I don’t know what the contradiction is, but since Ming Xia thinks that I like Yu Ning, my guess is that he now thinks Yu Ning and I will probably become lovers.” Ye Chen said, “Mingxia is a person with a high sense of morality and integrity. He will not do anything with Yu Ning now that he knows I intend to chase Yu Ning.”
After hearing this, Ye Tian instantly understood what Ye Chen meant.
Ye Chen took advantage of this misunderstanding to make the first move in pursuing Yu Ning.
Ji Mingxia took him as a friend, so naturally, he would not rob Yu Ning from Ye Chen.
When Ji Mingxia consciously withdraws and gives up Yu Ning, Ye Chen will turn around to pursue Ji Mingxia, and the chances of winning would have improved by a lot.
As for poor Yu Ning ……he naturally didn’t care.
Ye Tian was shocked: “Brother, your move is too vicious, killing without seeing blood! Yu Ning is also too miserable.”
“As long as the purpose can be achieved, the process does not matter.” Speaking of this, Ye Chen seemed to be in a better mood and the corners of his mouth hooked up in a smile.
Ye Tian originally wanted to sympathize with Yu Ning, but once she saw this smile, she suddenly felt that this scene was familiar.
Why did she feel that this smile was so familiar?
If she remembered correctly, at Ye Chen and Yu Ning’s first confrontation a few months ago, didn’t Ye Chen also feel victorious at that time?
He said that there was a secret between him and Ji Mingxia, which would make them distant from each…… as a result, nothing happened ……
Thinking of this, Ye Tian suddenly put away her sympathy.
Although her brother was not a good person, Yu Ning doesn’t seem pitiful or someone at the mercy of others.
——-
Ji Mingxia, the subject of Ye Tian and Ye Chen’s discussion, was leaning on Yu Ning at the moment.
Yu Ning had one hand wrapped around his waist, and the other holding his arm in a protective manner.
Ji Mingxia relaxed, and snuggled up to Yu Ning as he staggered towards the boys’ dormitory. While walking, he said: “I just drank a little …… a few sips, we were very measured ……”
“Measured?!” Yu Ning said coldly, “Asking you out to drink and letting you come back drunk alone, is that considered being measured?”
“Ye Chen also did not mean to, he also drank a lot, and couldn’t drive.” Ji Mingxia said. He recalled what Ye Chen said to him today, and explained in a low voice, “And he did not ask me out for a drink, he wanted to ask for my help ……”
“You agreed?” Yu Ning immediately pursued the question.
“Uh, well ……” Ji Mingxia originally thought that Yu Ning would pursue what kind of help Ye Chen wanted from him, but he didn’t expect Yu Ning to jump straight to the end, and he could only nod his head.
The look on Yu Ning’s face grew even colder.
It was so obvious that Ji Mingxia immediately knew that Yu Ning was angry.
If it were usual, Ji Mingxia would have started to ramble on and explain in order to make things clear with Yu Ning.
But at the thought of Ye Chen’s request, Ji Mingxia felt panicked and did not want to say a word of explanation.
Ji Mingxia didn’t speak, and Yu Ning also didn’t say a word.
The cold wind blew by, and although Ji Mingxia and Yu Ning were snuggled together, they fell into a cold war.
Ji Mingxia was drunk and confused, and now that he was drunk, his inner emotions were steeply amplified.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt aggrieved.
He was an ordinary straight man who got involved in Yu Ning’s life for some reason, and then he even developed feelings for Yu Ning.
During the summer vacation, there was no news of Yu Ning. Ji Mingxia spent more than two months in his hometown by himself and after finally picking himself up and starting again, he met Yu Ning in college.
The former hatred from everyone had become a fascination for the god of learning. There were Yu Ning’s fans everywhere and excellent suitors such as Ye Chen.
Although Ji Mingxia was very reluctant to admit it, he had developed an inferiority complex after being in such an environment for a long time.
He had even become a tool for Ye Chen and Yu Ning.
Ye Chen begged him to help on one side, and on this side, Yu Ning was angry. Ji Mingxia had endured the heartache, and in the end, harvested nothing.
He felt aggrieved, and the pace of his feet became more and more chaotic. His left foot suddenly stumbled over his right, and the whole person fell forward.
Yu Ning had been supporting Ji Mingxia, and when he was about to fall on the ground, he quickly reached out and brought Ji Mingxia back.
Ji Mingxia who was about to fall suddenly turned and pounced on Yu Ning.
The two were now face to face, and looking at each other’s faces.
Now lemme just… *pushes Ji Mingxia’s face closer to Yu Ning’s* 😗
Ye Chen is such an asshole. That ruthless selfishness of his is exactly like his psycho parents. The only difference is he wants a person instead of money.
Kiss him, please.
Thank you for the chapter!
