Strong Kiss

Qiao Moyu trembled after hearing what was said. Why didn't the male lead and supporting male lead just PK each other? How come when the battle between them hasn't even heated up yet, the gunfire was directed in her direction?

She stood in place, awkwardly staring at Ye Peicheng and Xing Yichen.

Luckily, Xing Yichen was more interested in Ye Peicheng's attitude. As a result, he straightened up his body and moved a bit away from Qiao Moyu. He surveyed Ye Peicheng with a calm gaze and smiled in reply: "Mr. Ye seems to be very good at cracking jokes!"

At that time, Ye Peicheng had already reached Qiao Moyu and Xing Yichen. He didn't bother with Xing Yichen's words and instead faced Qiao Moyu, saying: "Little Moyu, come here."

His words were calm, but they contained a kind of momentum that left people unable to refuse.

Qiao Moyu gulped. What happened to her today? She didn't seem to have given Ye Peicheng permission to dictate her actions?

Seeing Qiao Moyu's lack of movement, Ye Peicheng's still arm started tapping on his leg. He seemed like a patient hunter with a firmness in his eyes that showed a belief that his prey would eventually come to him.

"Moyu, I know that you are not familiar with him." Xing Yichen opened his mouth. He faced Ye Peicheng: "Mr. Ye, I am about to go drink coffee with Qiao Moyu. Normally I would invite you to join, but today, I ordered a two person private room…"

Ah, this was really like pasting gold on one's face! Qiao Moyu criticized him in her mind, thinking that it was really a waste that the male lead didn't go become an actor.

Next to her, Xing Yicheng took the lead and walked forward with confidence in his eyes: "Moyu, lets go."

He believed that Qiao Moyu might really have been swayed by Ye Peicheng these past few days, but her heart would still always stay on him.

In the past, he had rejected her wholehearted feelings; however, once he is willing to be with her, at most she will only be reserved for a bit. How would it be possible for her not to give him face in front of other men?

Xing Yichen walked toward the elevator and purposely slowed down his place. He could see out of the corner of his eye that Qiao Moyu had followed suit.

His lips curved into a smirk, feeling somewhat gratified and content.

Ye Peicheng stood still in his position the entire time, not even shifting his posture to look at them. But, Qiao Moyu could feel that with every step she took, Ye Peicheng's aura would drop by a few degrees.

She was shocked, but she had already followed Xing Yichen to the elevator.

Because the elevator was already at this floor, once he pressed the down button, the door immediately opened.

He beckoned Qiao Moyu: "Moyu, let's go."

Qiao Moyu followed Xing Yichen into the elevator, and then looked out. She clearly saw Ye Peicheng standing in the distance. Although his appearance was still outstanding, it carried an air of loneliness.

Her heart felt like it was lightly stabbed by something, but the feeling was too fleeting. Before she was able to think about it, it had already gone away.

At this time, the elevator door was starting to automatically close.

Qiao Moyu abruptly reached out her hand and slammed it down on the open door button.

Next to her, Xing Yicheng was dumbfounded: "Moyu, what's wrong?"

Qiao Moyu faced him with a sly smile, lifted up her foot, and then stepped down on Xing Yichen's leather shoes without mercy.

She was wearing stilettos. Being stepped on like that, Xing Yichen immediately felt a sharp pain and broke out into a cold sweat.

Qiao Moyu's speed was very fast. She quickly pressed the -2 floor button, then stepped out of the elevator. She turned and made a face at the person who was turned pale in pain and unable to move: "Who agreed to drink coffee with you? You made my family's Brother Ye have a misunderstanding. Stepping on you can be considered a light punishment!"

Xing Yichen revealed a face full of incredulity. The elevator door slowly closed in front of him. He wanted to press the open door button, but the pain in his foot prevented him from acting on his desire. He could only stare as the elevator continued to move down.

Qiao Moyu saw from the LED display that the elevator was already moving down, so she happily clapped her hands together.

When she raised her eyes, she discovered that at some point, Ye Peicheng had already turned around and was now staring at her.

There were about two meters of distance between them. She watched him draw closer step by step, his lips tightly pressed together and no light in his gaze.

Qiao Moyu suddenly felt timid, and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

How come Ye Peicheng looked like he wanted to eat her right now? She didn't even agree to Xing Yichen; also, she even stepped on him!

There was no sound in the hallway. Qiao Moyu was constantly retreating backwards, all the way until she reached the end of the hallway and could dodge no further.

Qiao Moyu licked her lips, and just as she was about to say something, Ye Peicheng opened his mouth: "I thought that you really walked away with him."

He was finally willing to talk. Qiao Moyu thought that the atmosphere was finally leavening, and faced him with a smile: "I followed him so that I could step on him. Just now, he probably felt pained to death, so if he comes back in a moment to beat me up, you have to protect me!"

After she said that, she suddenly thought that what she said was probably as unreasonable as it could get. After all, in the video last time, she had broken two of the guy's bones. In this lifetime, she probably will never be able to be linked with a weak little bird.

However, the man in front of her loosened up, his voice low and unhurried: "Okay, I will protect you."

The words that Qiao Moyu was about to follow up with got stuck in her throat.

It seems like he was really chasing her? This was the feeling of being liked by someone?

Before she sorted everything out in her head, Ye Peicheng reached out and propped his hand next to Qiao Moyu's face. He leaned over, surrounding Qiao Moyu with a feeling of oppression. "Then, for the account of making me feel bad just now, how should I collect the debt?"

Qiao Moyu stayed silent. Hadn't this matter already been explained? After all, she had gone along with Xing Yichen purely for the purpose of tricking him.

She shrank her neck and smiled at him: "We're part of the same Taoist school. Is there a need to make a fuss?"

He saw her appearance of wanting to change the topic. His eyes were deep: "However, I do want to make a fuss about it."

He talked while gnashing his teeth. Just now, his heart was really filled with negative feelings.

At that moment, he had thought that she had truly decided to walk away with another man. Flames of fury had welled up, accompanied by a suffocating feeling of loss.

It was the first time he liked a girl and wanted to be with her. Yet, he was met with the sight of the girl leaving with another man right in front of him. He didn't know how much effort he spent in controlling himself, preventing himself from snatching the person away from Xing Yichen and giving Xing Yichen a good beating.

Fortunately, the person came back. She had substituted him in beating Xing Yichen.

However, the uncomfortable feelings that had welled up in his heart had no way of extinguishing by itself.

Ye Peicheng stared into Qiao Moyu's eyes, enunciating every word: "I want you to repay me now!"

Saying that, he locked his hand behind Qiao Moyu's neck and pressed down on her lips.

Qiao Moyu was extremely shocked and instinctively tried to push him away. However, the man in front of her seemed to be very strong, rendering her unable to shake him off.

While still in the midst of her tangled thoughts, Ye Peicheng had already pried open her mouth, forcing her to entangle with him

An alarm started ringing in her brain. Qiao Moyu had absolutely no clue on what she should do. She even thought to the extent where the idea that since they had kissed while filming before anyways, another kiss wasn't much popped up.

It was at that moment that the elevator gave a clear 'ding' again. The elevator door opened, and Xing Yichen walked out with a black face.

However, after walking out a few steps, he suddenly had a thought. Perhaps Qiao Moyu and Ye Peicheng were just cooperating with each other! Just now, it could've just been a skit acted by the two of them!

Therefore, since there was no light on the surface, he wanted to go back and take a clear look.

After all, some things could only be fully believed after being seen clearly.

Little did he know that once he exited the elevator, he would see the two people kissing in the corner.

Ye Peicheng was holding Qiao Moyu tightly within his arms. From Xing Yichen's perspective, due to Ye Peicheng's tall stature, only Qiao Moyu's dress could be seen, along with the pair of heels that she had just used to step on him.

No matter how many conjectures he made in his heart, nothing beat seeing it right before his eyes. As Xing Yichen stared at the two people kissing without parting, the firm belief he held onto in his heart finally began to crack. With the slightest touch, it did crumble.

It turned out that the little girl who only had him in her heart finally really did start liking someone else!

That girl, when she was little, sweetly called out 'Brother Yichen' nonstop;

That girl, every time on his birthday, would give him folded paper cranes and flowers that she made herself;

That girl, cooked meals for him over and over again, without even tasting a bite of it herself;

That girl, perhaps was the one who pulled him out of the gates of the underworld when he was 17.

What he originally took for granted and believed could be received without any effort, one day, will be given to someone else?

The lights above his head, due to the silence, slowly extinguished. When the two people in the corner could no longer be seen, Xing Yichen could only feel an indescribable emptiness in his heart.

This kind of emptiness made him feel flustered; he had to do something to get rid of it!

Xing Yichen stepped forward and, in the blink of an eye, arrived by Ye Peicheng. He reached out his hand, grabbed onto Ye Peicheng's arm, and fiercely yanked it to the side: "What are you doing to her?!"

Ye Peicheng, having been fiercely pulled away, turned his head. His eyes were stormy and his tone was saturated with a murderous air: "Xing Yichen, I am with my girlfriend! Have you gone mad?!"

This was the first time Qiao Moyu saw Ye Peicheng so angry. The pressure he was currently giving off was a hundred times stronger that what he was pressuring her with previously. She originally thought that her martial arts was well trained; however, it didn't even hold a candle to his aura! In the future, she has something to work toward again!

While she was still in deep thought, Ye Peicheng pulled her back into his arms, using his free hand to keep her head within his embrace. He met with Xing Yichen's ferocious gaze, his tone cold and fierce: "CEO Xing, please have some self-respect!"

Xing Yicheng ignored Ye Peicheng, his line of sight steadily locked on the Qiao Moyu within Ye Peicheng's arms. His voice was frosty: "Moyu, you tell me. Is he forcing you?"

Qiao Moyu felt like collapsing. It must be that this morning, when she was wiping her face, she had patted too hard, thereby inducing so many peach blossoms to come find her. She couldn't think of a solution, so she had no choice but to poke her head out from Ye Peicheng's arms pretend to be shy: "No, Brother Ye didn't force me. We had gotten together a while ago."

Ye Peicheng was satisfied with her answer, and his aura weakened by a few points in accordance.

On the other side, Xing Yichen had been staring Qiao Moyu's eyes the entire time. She also stared back at him. He realized that when she looked at him, there were no traces of her previous feelings.

She truly did not like him anymore. She had chased after him, yet he had never stopped for her. In the end, she had walked 99 steps, and was no longer willing to take another,

In the hallway, the volatile atmosphere filled with drawn swords and killing spirit stagnated. Xing Yichen slowly withdrew his gaze from Qiao Moyu.

When he turned around, he suddenly thought, what had he even disliked about her in the past? He could only complain, and resent the fact that when his life was hanging by a thread, she had, without a hint, gone abroad to study, leaving behind no news. Once she had left, she was gone for a greater part of the year.

Sigh, the 'reason' why he hated her before ended up becoming the 'fruit' of his remorse now. Xing Yichen, with glistening eyes, looked at the girl within Ye Peicheng's embrace. A dull pain that was hard to ignore spread throughout his heart.
