Chapter 264
Ah Zhao feels that if she dies now, she must die of stupidity .
What did she just say?
She knows that she must clear things up today . Otherwise, they won't get past this forever .
She moves a bit so that Bai Mu Ye will let go of her .
She stands at his opposite .
Her eyes are still watery but she has stopped crying .
She sniffs and opens her mouth: “Listen to me . ”
Bai Mu Ye still seems angry . “I don’t want to . ”
Though he has said that, he remains where he is .
Ah Zhao speaks: “Honestly, I don't have much to explain . It is true that I was in love with her, that I was totally devoted to her . Now I’ve returned to my senses and put that behind me . It is also true that I don't love her anymore . ”
Bai Mu Ye’s mouth is in a tight line without a word .
She tries to catch his hands with her tone softened: “Don't be mad at me anymore, okay? I never lied to you . Look at me . ”
Involuntarily, he lowers his head and looks into her clear eyes .
They are so pure with only him in them .
His heart jumps .
Ah Zhao puts her hands on his slowly, palm to palm, fingers interlaced .
“I like you, Mu Ye . ”
Bai Mu Ye looks at their hands together without a word . Nor does he get rid of her hands .
Inwardly, Ah Zhao lets out a sigh of relief .

She continues: “Don't be jealous of her . Honestly, nothing happened between her and me . It was just my wishful thinking . She didn't like me at all . ”
Speaking of that, she looks a bit sarcastic .
She’s taunting Bai Qing . However, Bai Mu Ye thinks she is mocking herself .
Clever as he is, he knows what happened from what she said .
Though he hates that Ah Zhao had such a past, he hates that ingrate for breaking her heart more .
On the one hand, he is glad that ingrate didn’t like Ah Zhao, that nothing happened between the two .
On the other hand, he resents that ingrate's bad taste for not valuing a good girl like her .
It feels like he is turning into a psychopath .
At this point, a warm body nestles against his - it’s a hug from Ah Zhao .
“Don't leave me alone, okay?”

His heart has already softened .
Who is Lu Yuanzhao?
He has never seen her so meek .
She doesn’t need to act like this if she doesn’t care about him .
But he will be lying if he says he has let go of what happened completely .
He asks in a tone that is not without a hint of harshness: “Have you begged her like you did just now?”
Ah Zhao shakes her head .
Because of the difference of their heights, Bai Mu Ye feels a furry head rubs against him as soft strands of her hair brush his chin .
“No . ”

Lu Yuanzhao loved Bai Qing so much that she would speak to her in a gentle voice smilingly but never had she bowed to her .
Even when Bai Qing left Sky Star when her contract expired, Lu Yuanzhao didn’t try to persuade her to stay though she was extremely hurt .
The education of a family like Lu Family which has lasted for over a hundred years has instilled the strength of her character . She knew what to do and what not to .
“Have you cried for her?”
Ah Zhao shakes her head again .
Lu Yuanzhao's education wouldn't allow her to do anything meek .
But Ah Zhao is different .
Though she seldom cries, she will when she feels like it .
Hearing that, Bai Mu Ye feels better .
Noticing a change of attitude in his tone, Ah Zhao hurriedly seizes this opportunity to express herself .
