Chapter 2522: Give Her A Chance!
In the quiet space, only Ning Yuan’s heavy breathing could be heard.
After she finished speaking, the man was silent, his dark eyes staring at her.
She felt extremely pressured!
The temperature in the palace was just right. After Ning Yuan came in, she took off her coat and wore a shirt and jeans.
She saw his gaze sweeping from her face to her collar.
She looked down.
The button in the middle of his shirt had opened and his gaze happened to land on it.
Ning Yuan’s long eyelashes fluttered and she quickly lowered her head to button her shirt.
“Your Highness, I’ve finished speaking. Can we go now?”
He was tall and stood in front of her like a mountain, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
Ye Yu smirked and a smile flashed past his dark eyes.
Ning Yuan did not miss that smile, which was slightly mocking.
It was as if he was mocking her for playing hard to get!
Ning Yuan was embarrassed and angry, but she could not say anything.
Her previous actions were indeed easily misunderstood!
But she had stopped it in time!
As she lowered her head, a strand of hair fell on her cheek.
He raised his hand, wanting to push that strand of hair behind her ear, but she avoided it the moment he touched her face.
“Ha.” He chuckled softly.
The washroom was rather quiet and his smile seemed a little protruding.
Ning Yuan looked up at him. “What are you laughing at?”
The man’s slender fingers reached towards her chin and before Ning Yuan could react, she was pinched by his two fingers.
Their eyes met.
She dodged in a panic.
His gaze was deep.
Ning Yuan looked at the man close to her and her breathing stopped. The hands hanging by her sides clenched into fists unconsciously.
“What on earth are you doing… Mmh!”
Her unfinished words were blocked by the man’s lips.
Ning Yuan widened her eyes slightly, her mind blank and her thoughts seemed to have stopped, her fingers digging into her palm.
It was pain.
In other words, it was not a hallucination this time.
The refreshing breath with the smell of fir entered her nose. Before the man left, he bit the corner of her lips.
It did not hurt, but it felt real!
Ning Yuan’s throat moved and she looked at the man who had his hands on both sides of her waist and was looking down at her.
There were no emotions in his eyes and he was still deep and calm. On the other hand, her face was red, her breathing was chaotic, and her eyes were bright and excited.
He stared at her with dark eyes, a faint smile on his thin lips.
There was a smile on his face, but there was no smile in his eyes.
He was high up in the air and still gave people a cold and unapproachable feeling.
“Your reaction said everything,” he said in a deep voice.
Ning Yuan did not know what he meant and what his reaction meant.
His tall body suddenly leaned forward and their shoulders were almost touching.
His handsome and perfect face came close to her ear and his low and hoarse voice sounded. “Forget it, I’ll give you a chance.”
Before Ning Yuan could react, he had already opened the washroom door and went out.
Ning Yuan was a little dazed.
After a few seconds, Ning Yuan turned back and looked at herself in the mirror.
Her lipstick was smudged and there was still moisture in her eyes. She really looked like she could not be seen.
She hurriedly took out her lipstick from her bag and reapplied her makeup.
After tidying her hair and clothes and making sure that there was nothing wrong, she came out of the washroom.
Xia Lu happened to come to the washroom and when she saw Ning Yuan, she raised her eyebrows. “We thought you went to the washroom. You don’t look too good. Are you okay?”
Ning Yuan quickly calmed herself down and shook her head with a smile. “I’m fine.”
“Go to the restaurant quickly. There’s a lot of delicious food left.”
“Okay.”
When Ning Yuan arrived at the dining room, she heaved a sigh of relief when she did not see Ye Yu.
After dinner, they went shopping together.
They only returned home around seven or eight in the evening.
Ning Yuan had recently found a new house and before separating from Ye Tian, she told her about her apartment.
What Ye Tian meant was that Ning Yuan would continue to stay there after coming back from Country X, but Ning Yuan did not agree, so Ye Tian could only give up!
Ning Yuan took the subway to the district and was about to go in when a woman stopped her. “Miss Ning.”
Ning Yuan looked at the woman who looked exquisite and capable. She looked a little familiar and soon remembered that she was Ye Yu’s female secretary.
“Miss Ning, can we talk in the car?”
Ning Yuan followed the woman into an SUV.
The woman did not chat with Ning Yuan and took out a contract and two sets of keys from her briefcase.
“Miss Ning, take a look at the contract first.”
Ning Yuan looked down at the contract in confusion.
After reading the contract, her heart was in turmoil.
What the f*ck was this?
Seeing that Ning Yuan was silent with a strange expression, the female secretary said, “Miss Ning, if you agree, please sign it. If you follow His Highness for a year, Yuhua International’s villa and this Ferrari sports car will be yours. Also, 50 million in cash.”
Ning Yuan’s fingers tightened around the contract.
She finally understood what Ye Yu meant when he said he would give her a chance.
To him, giving her this chance was a gift.
After all, she could at least be his woman this year!
When she wanted to conquer him, she did not think too far ahead.
But the nature was different!
When she conquered him, she only wanted to date him and not have a relationship with her financier!
Since she was young, there were many people pursuing her. If she wanted to climb up the social ladder, it would not be Ye Yu’s turn.
Ning Yuan’s heart felt like a condiment bottle had been knocked over. She had mixed feelings and felt wronged!
But she did not blame Ye Yu. She had thought of this herself.
The best way was to not meet again.
If not, everyone would be in an awkward situation.
Ning Yuan closed her eyes and opened them again. She returned the contract to the secretary and did not look at the villa and car keys in her hand. “Please tell the Second Prince that I’m sorry for the trouble I brought him, but please ask him to stop humiliating me with these things!”
Without waiting for the secretary to say anything, Ning Yuan pushed open the door and got out of the car.
The secretary only looked away after she disappeared.
As Ye Yu’s secretary, she had undergone professional training and naturally would not pry into her master’s thoughts.
She asked the driver to drive to Yuhua International.
….
Ye Yu stood in front of the French windows in the living room. Seeing the SUV driving over slowly, he narrowed his deep black eyes slightly.
After a while, the secretary got out of the car.
She did not see that tall and slender figure.
Why? Did she want him to ask her to get off the car?
He had just given her a chance and she was already getting arrogant?
