Chapter 281 - To Refuse A Live Stream

Chapter 281 To Refuse A Live Stream

“Me? I am Tang Xia’s benefactor. I just rescued her from the devil’s clutches. Since you are her friend, shouldn’t you also thank me?”

Ye Yifan could not help feeling slightly puzzled. Could it be that something happened while he was away just now? But as he watched Tang Xia going further and further away, he could not afford to think anymore about this, and shoving him aside, he dashed after Tang Xia.

Tang Xia wanted to leave quickly, but she could not walk fast in her high heels and Ye Yifan eventually caught up with her after taking two big strides. He grabbed hold of her rather roughly, and there was a hint of impatience in his voice,

“Tang Xia, I have already apologized. Can’t you just forgive me? Xianxian came uninvited. My mother also tends to side with her more, because she has watched Xianxian grow up as a child, but they do not have any ill intentions.”

Tang Xia merely felt the fire burn even more strongly in her heart when she listened to him evading the crucial points and talking about trifles, in his explanation to her. She shook off his hand angrily, and she looked up at him with a pair of angry, apricot shaded eyes.

Ye Yifan was clearly frightened by her expression.

“What’s the point of telling me so much? Your mother and Li Xianxian are singing in tune with one another, and I was put on the spot. Did you know how my heart felt?”

Ye Yifan felt slightly guilty and he evaded her gaze awkwardly, as he turned his head to look into the distance.

When Tang Xia saw his reaction, she felt increasingly disappointed and she smiled coldly, “You do not have the courage to go against your mother anyway, and neither do you have the resolution to ignore Li Xianxian decisively in front of your mother. In that case, you should stop provoking me.”

“Since your mother does not like me, I will not be a bootlicker and suck up to her!”

She then left directly after giving a cold snort.

After Su Yanxun listened to the conversation between the two of them, he seemed to have a rough understanding of what happened between them, previously.

When he saw Ye Yifan’s awkward expression, Su Yanxun sighed, “Brother, you can only blame yourself for failing to live up to her expectations.”

After he said that, he quickly followed after Tang Xia. Ye Yifan was left standing alone at the same spot, staring at his hands which Tang Xia had shrugged off. At that moment, he actually felt that he was indeed incompetent and could not help but mutter softly, “Ye Yifan, you’re really useless.”

It was only at times like this that he was envious of Chu Tiankuo, who would chase after what he wanted, without having to think twice about it.

Tang Xia, who was initially angry and walking hurriedly, suddenly stopped. Su Yanxun, who was behind her, was also stunned for a moment and quickly stopped too.

He saw her turning around, her face showing a myriad of conflicted expressions, but all she saw was Su Yanxun’s face.

“Even if I gave him another chance, he would still choose not to chase after me…”

Tang Xia could not help giving a smile of relief. Since this was the case, then why should I expect something? Su Yanxun saw the fleeting, forlorn look on her face, and while he could not bear to watch that, he did not say anything.

Soon, she reached home. Just as she was about to open the door, she suddenly realized that Su Yanxun was still following her. She looked at him in slight surprise, before she chided him angrily,

“Why are you following me? Don’t you intend to leave after now that I’ve reached the doorstep of my house?”

Su Yanxun smiled in slight embarrassment and turned around to pull out his cellphone. However, the fawning expression on his face made it hard for Tang Xia to dislike him. “Can you give me your contact number?”

“That’s it?” Tang Xia could not help but feel surprised that he followed her all the way because he wanted her phone number. She took out her phone from her bag helplessly and called him. Su Yanxun quickly saved her contact number.Access v ip novel

He put the phone back in his pocket with satisfaction. “After all, it’s rare to meet someone whom you can hit it off with instantly, and I don’t want to lose contact like this.”

Tang Xia nodded her head helplessly, before she ordered him to leave. Su Yanxun was no longer insistent, and he quickly turned and left.

Early the next morning, Tang Xia planned to go to work after she finished packing. However, she saw that her eyes were as swollen as walnuts, and she could not help feeling very helpless. She held the ice pack against her eyes for a long time until the swelling was slightly reduced, before she quickly drove off to work.

The moment she arrived at the company, she saw Ye Yifan getting off the bus. The atmosphere between both of them instantly dropped to freezing point.

In the end, Ye Yifan decided to come forward and greet her. But just when he wanted to say something, Tang Xia directly turned around and left. Ye Yifan felt very embarrassed, but he still followed after her.

Tang Xia went directly to July’s office. July was working on a document and her back was toward Tang Xia.

She merely heard Tang Xia speaking in a slightly drawling voice, “July, you called for me?” As she spoke, she sat down on the sofa. However, Ye Yifan also pushed open the door and entered the room right at that moment. When he saw Tang Xia, both of them were stunned, and then he closed the door rather awkwardly.

When July heard the sound, she knew that both of them had probably entered the room and she turned around and looked at them. She initially wanted to say something, but was suddenly shocked by the big, black sunglasses that Tang Xia was wearing. “You… This… Why are you wearing glasses out of the blue? It’s not sunny outside.”

Tang Xia gave her a stiff smile and she tucked her loose hair behind her ears. “No reason. I just think that it is more suitable with my short hair. Don’t the uneducated, common folk in the market place look like this as well?”

As she spoke, she looked meaningfully at Ye Yifan, who was standing at the side. Ye Yifan was taken aback by her sudden, veiled words.

On the contrary, July increasingly felt that something was wrong, but she did not pay too much attention to it, and merely waved her hand impatiently. “Alright, alright. Let’s not talk nonsense anymore. I called you both over today to ask when both of you would be ready to do a Livestream together? The quota for the internal testing of the fantasy castle that the both of you won during the big match, is about to begin.”

Ye Yifan was silent for a long time. “I can do it anytime.” However, Tang Xia frowned from the side, and looked at July with a reluctant expression.

“Do I have to do it with Ye Yifan?”

It was then that July found out that she had been picking on Ye Yifan since the moment she entered the door, and what she said earlier on sounded just like words that she said in a fit of pique.

Ye Yifan also frowned slightly at Tang Xia, and the expression in his eyes seemed as if he was interrogating her.

However, Tang Xia did not seem to see it at all. She lifted her sunglasses and crossed her arms in front of her chest, before she replied, with a sullen expression on her face, “I will not go, if I have to do it with him.”

July was a little confused and she could not understand what was going on.

Finally, Ye Yifan could not bear it anymore, after he was both directly and indirectly snubbed at for so many times. He truly could not stand it anymore, and he instantly stood up to look at Tang Xia, with anger in his eyes. He suppressed the anger and said slowly,

“Tang Xia, can you stop being so unreasonable? It was my mother who let you down, not me. Why are you venting all your anger on me?”

Tang Xia raised an eyebrow and she suddenly felt that the man who stood in front of her was rather funny. She could not help but snort coldly.

“Look at yourself now. If you could be so confident and righteous in front of your mother yesterday, the subsequent things would not happen. Ultimately, it is still because you are weak!”Updates by vi p novel

Ye Yifan felt slightly strange and he pointed at himself in disbelief, with a baffled look on his face.

“I’m weak? How am I weak?”

July, who was standing by the side, could also tell from their exchange that something that she was unaware of, had happened yesterday, and she could not help, but sigh.

“Don’t you know clearly in your heart why you are weak? You could not distinguish right from wrong, and you listened to your mother’s words directly. You totally did not help me at all, and no matter what your mother said, she was right. You would never go north if she told you to go south!”

As Tang Xia spoke out, she also lost control of herself as she spat out this sentence. When July saw the situation, she quickly stepped forward to separate the two of them.

“Alright, alright. Stop fighting. Based on your conversation, I roughly know what is the cause already.”

As she spoke, she made both of them sit on the sofa, and then moved next to Tang Xia. She took her hand and patted it to try to get her to calm down.

Tang Xia also realized that she had lost control of herself, and took a deep breath to try and calm herself as much as possible.

When July saw that Tang Xia had calmed down, she then spoke slowly in a warm and gentle tone of voice, as if she was talking about some domestic trivia.

“Even if something happened, don’t take it too seriously, alright? Otherwise, ultimately, you will be the one who is sad.”

“After all, you are a girl. Just like the issue with the media for the past two days, if you take it too seriously, you will not have the right mentality to be in the live streaming industry.”

After Tang Xia calmed down, she thought about the things that happened previously. She made it through them eventually, and it was all because she did not take it to heart, which reduced the amount of psychological harm that it had on her.

When July saw the expression in Tang Xia’s eyes, she knew that Tang Xai had accepted her words. Then she turned to look at Ye Yifan, who was seated by the side. She instantly threw him a look of frustration for his failure to live up to expectations.

“Why are you still sitting down over there? When a man quarrels with a girl, no matter who is at fault, you should still apologize first!”

Right after Ye Yifan argued with Tang Xia, he actually regretted it. When he thought about how he lost his demeanor and yelled so loudly at a girl, he felt so ashamed that he wanted to dig a hole and hide inside. Fortunately, July gave him the lifeline to get out of the awkward situation. If not, he would not have known how to carry himself.

He quickly leaned towards Tang Xia’s side and smiled with slight embarrassment.

“Sorry, I said those words earlier because I was too agitated and lost control of myself. I was not in the right frame of mind, since it is so early in the morning, and I’m still not fully awake. Don’t take what I said, to heart!”

Tang Xia turned her head and looked at the window in the distance. It was obvious that she did not want to bother with him, but July, who was seated next to her side, was pinching her arms. She even gave Tang Xia a look and so, the helpless Tang Xia could only look at Ye Yifan.

“Are your words sincere?”

Ye Yifan quickly agreed anxiously, “Of course!”

Tang Xia thought about it for some time and eventually, she nodded her head and forgave him reluctantly.

When July saw that everything ended well for everyone, she wanted to ask Tang Xia about the live stream. But right at that moment, Tang Xia’s sudden resolute voice could be heard beside her ear.

“But I refuse to participate in the internal test for the Fantasy Castle.” Both July and Ye Yifan, who originally heaved a sigh of relief, did not manage to react to this immediately and Ye Yifan inevitably frowned.

July could not help, but look at her with a dumbfounded expression, and asked her in a shocked voice, “Why? Didn’t you forgive Ye Yifan already? What else is there?” However, Tang Xia looked rather tired, as she leaned backwards.

“I’m not in a good mood, and I don’t want to do the live stream.”
