Chapter 38 I Don't Understand Him
Chapter Thirty-Eight: Not Understanding Him
Could it be that she missed it when Yan Ye was trapped in bed?
Where is her cell phone?
She's been living in a daze these past few days, and it seems like she hasn't even touched her phone much.
After Yan Ye finished messing with her, he disappeared and was not in the room for the time being. Yue Yirou stood up from the corner, enduring the soreness and fatigue all over her body, and began to look for her phone everywhere.
It wasn't in my handbag, it wasn't on the bedside table...
Finally, she found her phone under the bed, but it had been smashed in two.
How could this be?
After thinking for a while, she remembered that once, when Yan Ye had trapped her in bed, her phone suddenly rang. Yan Ye found it annoying, picked it up casually, and threw it on the floor. At the time, she was only hoping that he would finish his nonsense as soon as possible and didn't pay attention to it. Afterwards, she completely forgot about it.
Looking back now, I realize that's when he smashed her phone.
However, it's been two or three days since that incident, and Tingyun must be very worried because he can't get through to her on the phone and will try to find her.
In this situation, Zou Qian would definitely tell him everything he had been hiding, and once Tingyun knew, he would realize that she was imprisoned in Xingye Pavilion by Yan Ye, and he would come looking for her no matter what.
Is he on his way to Starry Night Pavilion right now?
No, she didn't want him to come to Starry Night Pavilion.
He'll definitely get a severe beating from Yan Ye if he comes to Xingye Pavilion; she doesn't want him to get hurt again.
What should she do? What should she do now?
Try to call him and lie to him that she's not at Xingye Pavilion.
Yes, that's the only way. Before he arrives at Starry Night Pavilion, she has to call him and stop him.
Yue Yirou stumbled out of the room, took the elevator downstairs, and found Xue Tao.
Xue Tao was using a feather duster to pat and beat things here and there.
Yue Yirou rushed up to Xue Tao and pleaded, "Butler Xue, could I borrow your phone to make a call?"
"Of course," Xue Tao replied readily, then took out his phone from his pocket, unlocked it, and handed it to Yue Yirou.
"Thank you, Butler Xue," Yue Yirou said sincerely.
“Miss Yue, you don’t need to be so polite with me. Everything I have is given to me by the young master, and you are also the young master’s…” Xue Tao paused, coughed lightly, and then continued, “Miss Yue, if you want to express your gratitude, you should thank the young master.”
Yue Yirou concealed the gratitude in her eyes. Thank that man? Unless she'd lost her mind.
Without saying anything more, Yue Yirou took her phone, turned around, and walked to the window.
But as soon as she pressed Lu Tingyun's number, before she could even dial, a pair of large hands wrapped around her waist, and the next second her back pressed against a warm, thick chest. She felt the warm breath of someone on her ear, and kisses, both deep and shallow, landed on her face, forehead, and neck...
"Yi Rou, what are you doing standing here?" Yan Ye asked as he kissed her with hazy eyes.
Yue Yirou was so startled that she almost dropped her phone. She stammered, "N-nothing, I was just standing here looking at the scenery."
"What's so interesting about this? How about we go back to the room and I show you my fit and strong body?"
"..."
"Silence means consent, so let's go back to our rooms now."
"It's not a tacit agreement, it's not..." Yue Yirou hurriedly denied.
Yan Ye had already picked her up when his large hand inadvertently touched the phone she was holding. He suddenly stopped, his eyes sharpened, and he stared intently at the phone in her hand.
Feeling his cold gaze, Yue Yirou quickly hid her phone behind her back, then, realizing it was even more inappropriate, put it back out and stammered, "I... I haven't been home for a few days and wanted to call my family to let them know I'm safe, but my phone... you broke it, so I borrowed a phone from Butler Xue..."
"Why did you ask Xue Tao for a loan? Do you think I don't exist as your man?" Yan Ye roared at her immediately after hearing this.
"..." Yue Yirou was speechless again.
She's heard those words "you are my man" so many times these past few days she's practically sick of them.
He would often say things like, "Your man is me," or "So what?"
such as
Am I handsome, man?
Isn't my body amazing?
Am I, your man, really amazing?
……
She was utterly speechless.
He's not her man at all, okay?
She didn't know how he could have the nerve to say it, let alone say it so smoothly.
She was nothing more than his plaything, not his woman. Why did he keep calling her his man?
She really didn't understand him, not at all.
After glaring fiercely at Yue Yirou for a while, Yan Ye suddenly put her down, snatched the phone from her hand, threw it back to Xue Tao, and then took out his own phone, unlocked it, and handed it to Yue Yirou.
"I'll get you a custom-made cell phone, but until it's ready, if you want to make a call, you'll have to ask me for the phone. Otherwise..."
Yan Ye's gaze swept over the group of servants and bodyguards in the hall, his voice icy, "Anyone who dares to lend their phone to Yue Yirou can pack their bags and get out of here immediately."
Xue Tao lowered his head, looking as if to say, "Young Master, I know I was wrong, and I will never dare to do it again."
Yue Yirou: "..."
After threatening everyone, Yan Ye turned his gaze back to Yue Yirou and asked gently, "Why haven't you called yet? Didn't you say you wanted to call your family to let them know you're safe?"
Yue Yirou held his phone as if it were a hot potato.
She wanted to call her family to let them know she was safe. In her heart, she had long regarded Lu Tingyun as her family. However, how could she dare to call him in front of Yan Ye?
His possessiveness was unreasonable; he wanted her body but wouldn't allow her to have any other man in her heart.
She would never forget the day she saw him in the study, when he told her to forget Lu Tingyun.
I need to make the call, but I can't do it in front of him.
After rolling her eyes, she looked up at him and hesitated for a moment before saying, "I haven't been home for several days. If I call back now, I'm sure I'll get scolded. I... I don't want you to hear about this... So, could you... could you leave for a bit?"
Yan Ye's face turned cold again: "I'm your man, what can't I listen to? Aren't your family your uncle and aunt? As far as I know, they're not very good to you. If they dare to scold you, I'll scold them back for you."
"..." He even helped her curse back? If he could have used his kindness on sleeping with her, she would definitely be grateful to him.
Yue Yirou was completely at a loss.
"Hurry up and make the call. After we finish the call, let's go back to our room."
Yan Ye urged impatiently, as he was feeling unwell again and urgently needed an antidote, and she was his best antidote.
Now, she should be well-rested and able to help him detoxify.
Yue Yirou gritted her teeth and began to press the phone number she knew by heart, one digit at a time.
"Put it on speakerphone, I want to hear clearly how they all insulted you. Afterwards, I'll hire experts in this field to give them a hundred times the insults back," Yan Ye said indignantly.
"..."
