Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Fu Zhuo stayed crouching at the door, staring at his phone until it ran out of battery and switched itself off. He hadnât caught the glimpse he was hoping for.
Fu Zhuo was yawning non-stop. He couldnât help it and left.
An indeterminable number of hours passedâŚ
Ye Xingguang felt the manâs arm relax. His cold body seemed to be gradually warming up, and his shivering was becoming less severe.
She looked up, wanting to ask him, are you feeling better now?
But the manâs eyes were closed in silence. Was he asleep?
She didnât dare to ask, didnât dare to call out. If he was asleep, she was afraid to wake him up.
Being embraced in a manâs arms for the first time, Ye Xingguang felt unaccustomed and a bit shy once she let go of her worries. Unable to sleep, she busied herself with her phone.
There was a message notification from some unscrupulous media that even at four-thirty in the morning. It seemed they were targeting her.
The message was an interview video with Ye Junqing. Without opening the video, Ye Xingguang already knew that the man who had once used her as a pillow would be on the screen, ruthlessly saying two words: âNo.â Such a cold-hearted man!
She must have been out of her mind to sympathize with him tonight!
In the midst of her thoughts, her phone rang alerting her to an incoming call from an unknown number. She picked up but didnât say anything.
After a moment, a deep voice sounded from the other end of the line, âXingguang, are you with Junqing now?â âHmm? May I know whoâs calling?â
âItâs Ye Shiting.â
Oh, the potential presidential candidate?
Ye Xingguang was taken by surprise. Ye Shitings voice came again, âHow is he?â
âHeâs asleep, are you looking for him?â
âNo, Iâm looking for you.â Ye Shiting paused for a long time before asking, âAre you two sleeping together?â
This needed clarification, âNo, you misunderstood. We just spent the night on the living room couch, 1 was basically his human-pillow.â
On the other end of the line, Ye Shiting chuckled in a mix of disbelief and amusement, âl heard about Junqings interview tonight â he was quite harsh. Xingguang, 1 hope you donât take it to heart.â
âŚâI canât deny it bothers me!â
âThe media might twist Junqings words and create a story out of it. Xingguang, would you mind posting a picture of you being his âpillowâ on social media? We can hit back at the media and at him.â
What sorcery is this? Ye Junqingâs own brother wants to play him?!
Ye Xingguang said hesitantly, âThatâŚmight not be appropriate?â
âThe relationship between you two can directly affect my campaign.
Xingguang, can I ask this favor of you?â
Ye Shitings plea was hard to deny. As a journalist, she knew how his political rivals wanted to exploit her relationship with Ye Junqing. After mulling it over, she decided, ââŚSure.â
âThank you, Xingguang. Please take good care of Junqing tonight. Goodnight.â With that, Ye Shiting hung up, leaving Ye Xingguang in a tough spot.
After a long hesitation, she turned on her phoneâs camera, stretched her arm, and captured a photo of herself being held tightly by Ye Junqing.
She took several photos, ultimately selecting one that showed Ye Junqings handsome profile, while her face was buried in his embrace, revealing only the back of her head. Beautiful!
And then, she posted it on social media..
