"Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Ye Junli was somewhat unhappy.

"Nothing is suitable." Ye Junli picked up his wine cup and drank it all in one gulp. He stood up and patted his stiff suit, "Tomorrow night at seven o'clock, wait for me at the entrance of the Demon Region. I will come and pick you up." With that, he left.

I can't even get a proper evening dress ready.

I came back to my senses. Ye Junli's warning was still ringing in my ears. I couldn't help but take a step back. "What happened?"

Yang Zhong didn't seem to notice my abnormality and looked inside the room. After confirming that no one else was present, he closed the door and entered.

"Yao Ji, what happened between you and Young Master Li?" Yang Zhong kept this matter in mind.

I avoided his earnest gaze. "It's nothing, don't ask. It has nothing to do with you."

Hearing my words, Yang Zhong was silent for a moment, then laughed bitterly, "It has nothing to do with me, but if you have any unspeakable pain, I hope that you can tell me, although I do not have any skills, but …"

"No need!" I interrupted him. "I've already gotten off work today, so I'll be leaving first. Goodbye." I left the room without looking at him.

I can't accept Yang Zhong's help anymore. In order to achieve my own goals, I will use any means possible to seduce Ye Junli, so how can I calmly accept the olive branch that Yang Zhong gave me?

When I returned home, Zhou Nian was already asleep.

I tiptoed into his room and stood by the bed watching his serene sleeping face. I looked at his arms again and swore to myself that I would make justice for him for all he had suffered.

The next day, just as I was worrying about the dress for the ball, Ye Junli actually sent someone to deliver the dress to the door.

Zhou Nian laid on the table and curiously looked at the square box, "Sis, what is this? Why would someone give you a dress? "

I was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to explain to Zhou Nian my relationship with Ye Junli, "That client I met last time."

"Customer? Why would he give you clothes? " Zhou Nian persevered, "Furthermore, from the looks of it, these outfits aren't cheap. They're exquisite in terms of craftsmanship and materials, Sis, you won't …"

"Don't talk nonsense." I knew what he was going to say, so I interrupted him. "He asked me to accompany him to a ball today, so he gave me a dress."

"But I feel like your customer is really not bad. Sis, if you get along with him, why don't you try it out?" Zhou Nian continued to work hard.

I sighed in my heart. How could someone like Ye Junli be someone I can casually think of. Being able to have such a relationship with him is already an unexpected gain.

Zhou Nian always thought that he was the one who dragged me down, so he really wanted me to hurry up and find a place to go.

In the evening, I changed into the formal attire given to me by Ye Junli and waited for him at the entrance of the Demon Region to come pick me up.

Afraid of being discovered by others, I could only stealthily hide in a corner until Ye Junli pulled up in front of me.

"How did you see me here?"

"The clothes are too eye-catching." Ye Junli said calmly.

I looked down at my pale yellow gown, sparkling with crystals, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"The dress is beautiful." As soon as he got on the car, Ye Junli said this.

I don't know why, but my face burned.

Ye Junli was an attractive man. There weren't many women in this world that could say something like this to make a girl happy.

I secretly pinched my palm to try and clear my mind. After all, I wasn't the same person as Ye Junli. I had to grasp my heart and not sink too deep into the abyss.

Just as I thought, the ball that Ye Junli brought me to was a social event between rich people.

I took Ye Junli's arm and looked around at the people dressed in luxurious clothing. Once, I clearly understood the distance between me and Ye Junli.

"You seem very nervous?" Ye Junli greeted them and then lightly glanced at me. "I had thought that a girl from a bar like you would be like a fish in the water when she comes to a place like this. She would seize every moment to show off her charm."

I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself. I know what Ye Junli means, but it's understandable that a young master like him would look down on a female dancer like me.

But I didn't expect him to put his contempt for me on the surface so blatantly.

"Young Master Li?" A voice sounded.

Ye Junli and I turned around at the same time and saw Hei Baozi's face that made me feel disgusted.

Ye Junli looked at him expressionlessly, then politely nodded at the woman beside Hei Baozi.

I looked at that woman and thought to myself that she must be someone of extraordinary status. After all, there aren't many people in the imperial capital that could make Ye Junli bow his head.

"Young Master Li, I never thought that you would actually be together with this woman?" Hei Baozi looked at me in disdain.

I lowered my head and didn't say anything. I knew that no matter what I said in this situation, it would just be a slap to Ye Junli's face.

Jun Li, a few days ago, Xiao Yue came to me to complain to me. She said that you and an unknown woman had hooked up, and I didn't believe it in the beginning, but I didn't expect that you would bring such a woman to such an important occasion. the woman said contemptuously.

She called herself a member of the Ye Family, and since Ye Junli was wary of her, it seemed like she should be the legendary Madam Ye.

The Ye Family's situation is very complicated. I only found out about it after hearing the rumors. It is said that this Madam Ye is not the biological mother of Ye Junli, and she doesn't get along well with him.

"Yan Yue is really capable, she actually complained about such a small matter." Ye Junli said coldly.

"Auntie," Hei Baozi opened his mouth at the side, "You probably don't know where this woman came from, she is the pillar of the bar in the Demon Area, a famous dancer."

I suddenly raised my head to look at Hei Baozi, only to see that his face was filled with pride.

It was only then that I realized Hei Baozi was actually so close to the Ye Family. He called Madam Ye auntie, no wonder he was so arrogant.

It seems that it would be easier for me to overthrow Hei Baozi. Ye Junli and Madam Ye are not on good terms with each other, and Hei Baozi is a relative of Madam Ye.
