Chapter 233 I Want to Get Your Attention
After Ye Xi took Fu Linchuan out of the living room, they walked along the corridor outside, wondering in their mind how the old man would blackmail them, bah, and have a friendly exchange with Jiang Yixuan.
Obviously, with Jiang Yixuan's level of skill, he couldn't be the old man's opponent. She actually wanted to see this kind of crushing scene.
After coming out, Fu Linchuan has been following Ye Xi and observing her. He saw her frowning and relaxing, and he didn't know what she was thinking. He recalled what he saw in the living room before, and his face looked a little bad.
"Ms. Ye, are you on good terms with that Young Master Jiang?"
"Huh?" Ye Xi came back to his senses and remembered that there was someone following him.
"Oh, not bad."
Not getting a satisfactory answer, Fu Linchuan's eyes darkened.
This interruption successfully shifted Ye Xi's attention from inside to his surroundings.
The appearance of the person in front of me is truly superior, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, a perfect figure, and a clear jawline like a character walking out of a cartoon, thin and moist lips, a high nose bridge, and sharp eyebrows and eyes covered by the frame, as if suppressing the wildness underneath.
I still remember that when she first met him, she thought he was an artist and tried to sign him.
"I don't think I have ever offended Mr. Fu in any way, right?" Ye Xi suddenly spoke with a faint smile on his face.
"What?" Fu Linchuan stopped and faced her. "Why did Miss Ye ask that?"
Ye Xi smiled and said, "I had the honor of meeting Mr. Fu a few days ago, but I didn't know your identity at that time. I was afraid that I might have offended you, so I asked."
She observed the other person's expression and said, "It seems that Mr. Fu doesn't remember."
Fu Linchuan also smiled. "Ms. Ye, are you talking about the time when you treated me as an artist?"
Ye Xi raised an eyebrow.
It seems he still remembers it.
"So, now you know my identity?"
Ye Xi looked away and said frankly: "Actually I still don't know, but judging from Grandpa's attitude towards you, you are definitely not an ordinary artist."
Maybe he is some big shot with a prominent background, and even the Ye family can't afford to offend him.
Fu Linchuan did not respond immediately. He followed her for a few steps before suddenly speaking, "Are you angry?"
His eyes followed her the whole time, and although it was a question, his tone was affirmative.
Ye Xi paused, turned around and looked at him in surprise.
This person is so sharp.
She continued to smile, trying to make her reaction very natural: "What is Mr. Fu saying? Why should I be angry?"
Fu Linchuan looked at her steadily, and his pupils, which were as dark as hers, only reflected her figure.
"I can feel your emotions. You are unhappy because I didn't explain when you misunderstood my identity, so you got angry."
He continued, "You feel that I am deceiving you, or that I am looking down on you, so there is no need to explain anything to you."
The more he talked, the more shocked Ye Xi was. This man saw through her too clearly. He actually said those subtle emotions that she herself hadn't even figured out. Is this the power of a superior? It's true that he can't compare to a gigolo like Jiang Yixuan.
Since it was impossible to hide it, Ye Xi simply laid his cards on the table and stopped pretending to smile and please others.
"Even if you are right, so what? Shouldn't it be right?"
Fu Linchuan glanced quickly to the lower right corner, then looked up at her with a hint of barely perceptible joy.
"Is there a possibility that I don't explain because," he took a step closer to Ye Xi, "I want to get your attention?"
The sudden approach made Ye Xi, who was used to keeping a safe distance, feel at a loss. She opened her eyes wide, took a step back, and asked cautiously: "What? Why do you want to attract my attention?"
Seeing her like this, Fu Linchuan raised his lips and wanted to tease her. Seeing that there was no one around, he whispered to her, "Miss Ye, have you forgotten a lot of things?"
An alarm instantly sounded in Ye Xi's mind, and her high alert made her calmer. He asked this question, which didn't necessarily mean he knew something, so she couldn't lose her composure.
"I am a rich girl who does nothing every day and only knows how to eat, drink and have fun. I have forgotten many things. I wonder which one Mr. Fu is talking about?"
Fu Linchuan took another step closer and continued, "Perhaps, it's not something, but a memory?"
It seems that he really knows something.
"Oh?" This time, Ye Xi no longer avoided his gaze and looked him straight in the eye. "Then Mr. Fu, why don't you tell me in detail?"
Just as Ye Xi thought, Fu Linchuan knew her very well, so he also knew that if he continued to tease her, he would be playing with fire, so he took two steps back and apologized: "I'm sorry, Miss Ye, I overstepped my bounds. I heard that you had lost your memory before, so I was curious and said something I shouldn't have said. Miss Ye, don't take it to heart."
Previously, the story of Ye Xi pursuing Jiang Yixuan had caused a stir in Yuncheng. Many people knew that she pretended to have amnesia in order to win his attention. A little inquiry would reveal the truth. Ye Xi automatically identified herself with the incident and did not hold on to it any longer.
"As for the last exchange meeting, I was busy at the time and didn't explain it clearly. I was impolite."
His sincere acknowledgment of his mistake made Ye Xi feel that he had made a big deal out of nothing, so he said sincerely, "This can't be said to be your fault. After all, no one would tell others who they are when they meet them, let alone someone like you. Not explaining is the best option."
If it were her, she would not bother to explain a small misunderstanding to a stranger with whom she didn't know if they would have any interactions.
"Ms. Ye is very different from what was rumored."
Ye Xi nodded: "Rumors stop at the wise."
"But I was wrong in this matter, and today too, so let me say I owe you a favor. If you need me for anything in the future, just come find me."
For Ye Xi, this was like a free wish, so there was no reason for her to refuse it. The two of them even added each other’s contact information.
After walking for a while, the two found a rest area to sit and enjoy the scenery. The conversation in the living room was almost over, and the housekeeper came to greet the two to prepare dinner together later, and also asked about Fu Linchuan's taste. Ye Xi was surprised to find that his taste was very similar to hers.
After the housekeeper left, Ye Xi looked towards the living room, then looked at the people around him, remembered the wish he had just made, and suddenly had an idea.
"Maybe Mr. Fu will be needed today." Ye Xi said a little embarrassedly.
Fu Linchuan looked at her: "Just say it."
"That's right. Can you pretend to be my blind date?"
