Chapter 45: But I Love You

Ye Yao stood up and walked to Huo Buyu’s side. She held his arm intimately. “Qin Jiao, did you hear that? Huo Buyu says that I won’t go around bullying people.”
Gao Qiao added, “Qin Jiao, stop pestering Huo Buyu. I can’t understand you anymore. You were the one who almost caused Huo Buyu’s death back then. Why do you still so shamelessly pester him now? Isn’t it enough to have harmed him once?” Huo Buyu’s life had always been smooth-sailing. The only obstacle had been Qin Jiao. He had almost died when he broke up with Qin Jiao previously. After paying such a huge price, he’d be crazy if he reconciled with the woman. If this had happened to himself, he’d have long thrown Qin Jiao thousands of miles away. How could he let her hover around? It was only because of Huo Buyu’s good nature.
Qin Jiao’s face turned pale as a sheet. She shook her head as tears streamed down her face. “I… I didn’t do it on purpose. I really didn’t do it on purpose…” After that incident, she had also been regretting it every day. If she hadn’t been willful back then and insisted on testing Huo Buyu’s love for her, would they have come to this?
Huo Buyu frowned. “That’s all history. Qin Jiao, we’re history too. Don’t pester me anymore.” If he had known that Qin Jiao was so difficult to deal with, he wouldn’t have agreed right at the onset to give things a try, even if he was beaten to death.
Qin Jiao shouted with tears in her eyes, “But I love you!”
The commotion here had long attracted the attention of others. Qin Jiao’s loud confession attracted even more attention. Moreover, she looked so pitiful. However, Huo Buyu, Ye Yao, and Gao Qiao all wore icy expressions on their faces. They didn’t look distressed at all. To outsiders, it appeared as if the three of them had ganged up to bully a young lady like Qin Jiao.
Ye Yao’s expression darkened. “Qin Jiao, are you shameless? Huo Buyu is my boyfriend. Why are you confessing to him? Can’t wait to be a third party?”
Then, without waiting for Qin Jiao’s answer, Ye Yao took off with Huo Buyu in tow. Qin Jiao was a lunatic. She had nothing to say to a lunatic! Seeing this, Gao Qiao also left, leaving Qin Jiao alone. She was so angry she was ready to spew blood.
Qin Jiao swore, she wasn’t going to let Ye Yao have an easy time!
Pulling Huo Buyu behind her, Ye Yao walked a long way before she finally spoke up. “Are all the young ladies from wealthy families in the imperial capital so dramatic? There were so many people around, and she was crying and making a fuss. Shouldn’t a young lady from a wealthy family pay more attention to her own image?” In Ye Yao’s eyes, Qin Jiao was like a lunatic.
Gao Qiao agreed with Ye Yao. He looked at Huo Buyu. “Think of a resolution. We can’t let Qin Jiao keep doing this, right?”
Huo Buyu was very annoyed as well. Ye Yao tilted her head and suddenly asked,
“Just then it was said that Qin Jiao almost killed you. What was that about?”
Huo Buyu’s expression froze over and he didn’t answer. Ye Yao turned to ask
Gao Qiao, “Why don’t you tell me.”
Gao Qiao was about to speak, but Huo Buyu glared at him. He then scratched his nose and said, “Well… you should ask Huo Buyu yourself. This is his private matter, it’s not for me to say.”
The corners of Ye Yao’s lips twitched. “Really? You’re forcing me to use some special methods on you, right?”
“Don’t.” Gao Qiao was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat. It was quite fun to watch Ye Yao use her jinxing ability on others, but having it happen to himself was another story. He cupped his fist and raised his arms towards Huo Buyu. “I’m sorry, Brother!” Then, he said to Ye Yao, “Back then, Qin Jiao had a suitor. That suitor was also a lunatic. He was jealous that Huo Buyu could be with Ye Yao, so he rammed his car into Huo Buyu and almost killed him!” With that, Gao Qiao got himself ready, then slipped away at high speed. As he ran, he reminded Ye Yao, “You’re not allowed to use vour ability on me!”
Ye Yao blinked and looked at Huo Buyu. “So, when I rescued you the other time, you were seriously injured because of Qin Jiao?”
Huo Buyu and Ye Yao had known each other before they met overseas. At that time, Ye Yao had come to the imperial capital to visit Jiang Jie. There was a very remote route from S City to the imperial capital. At that time, there was a serious car accident. Ye Yao happened to chance upon it, so she called the police. When she got out of the car, she realized that there was someone trapped in the burning vehicle. Without thinking, she rushed over and pulled him out of the car. This person was Huo Buyu. However, Ye Yao didn’t have a good impression of Huo Buyu after rescuing him, because his family had actually treated her as the perpetrator and had her arrested! Ye Yao had been well behaved all her life, hence this was the first time she had been locked up in a detention center.. She even had to stay there an entire night!
