I subconsciously looked at Ye Junli and saw that he had two different women in his arms as he looked at me with a sneer.

I nodded slightly. "Young Master Li, I heard that you were looking for me?"

"My name is Yao Ji!" I corrected him.

Ye Junli looked at me with a sharp gaze, but I didn't cower as I met his gaze.

Xia Lan tugged at the corner of my clothes, causing me to turn around and look at her with a smile.

"Yao Ji, do you really think how noble you are now?" Ye Junli said disdainfully.

I turned around and looked at him, and laughed coldly: "Young Master Li, I don't know what kind of person I am in your eyes, but I hope that you can respect my character!"

"Personality?" Ye Junli laughed out loud. Suddenly, he kicked the table in front of him and bellowed, "All of you, scram!"

Just as I was about to turn around and leave, Ye Junli called out to me, "Yao Ji, you stay behind. All of you, get out. "

"Young Master Li, Yao Ji doesn't understand …" Xia Lan wanted to speak up for me.

"Get out!" Ye Junli roared.

Xia Lan shrunk back a bit as I gave her a comforting look. After hesitating for a bit, Xia Lan was still unable to withstand Ye Junli's pressure and left.

In an instant, only Ye Junli and I were left in the room.

I looked at Ye Junli's face with some fear in my heart, but I still forced myself to look him in the eye.

Ye Junli slowly stood up and approached me with his slender and straight legs. He lowered his head to look at my face and lightly said, "Yao Ji? So it turns out that you prefer to hear me call you by that name? "

I lowered my head and said nothing.

I couldn't see through Ye Junli's thoughts at all. I originally thought that Ye Junli would never come look for me again after the last incident.

"I didn't expect that a female dancer who seduced men to use men would have such a strange pride."

"Ye Junli!" I shouted his name.

All along, even though I was a dancer that others looked down upon in the Demon Region, I had my own set of thoughts. I carefully guarded my name and didn't reveal it, thinking that one day I would leave this dirty and messy place and search for a pure land by myself.

"What did you call me?" He looked at me coldly.

"Young Master Li," I raised my head and looked him straight in the eyes, "A person as lofty as you may despise my profession, but I have to tell you this, I have my own pride and do not need you to teach me how to be a person!"

In any case, I have already completely offended Ye Junli, so Hei Baozi might still come back to take revenge on me after hearing this news.

Ye Junli looked at me coldly. He turned around and sat back down on the sofa, then took out a folder from his side and looked at it. "You had a grudge with Hei Baozi?"

"You investigated me?" I'm kind of incredible.

Ye Junli's identity, for him to spend so much time and effort on a nameless nobody like me, is truly out of my expectations.

"Do you think anyone can get close to me as they please?" Ye Junli put down the document.

"So what did you find out?" I was shaking.

There's nothing in my life that makes me feel inferior, but I still find it hard to accept being dissected by someone I'm not related to.

"What I found out isn't important, the important thing is …" Ye Junli paused for a moment before suddenly stretching out his arms to pull me down onto the sofa. I swayed unsteadily in his embrace, and his breath filled my nose in an instant. The smell of alcohol and tobacco immediately made my mind blank.

"I agree to work with you." Ye Junli continued.

I froze, not knowing what he was talking about. I looked up at him in confusion.

"If you want to bring Hei Baozi down, yes, I will accompany you. Isn't this what you want?" Ye Junli looked at me.

"What did you say?" I whispered.

The corner of Ye Junli's mouth curled up as he looked at me darkly. "Zhou Xiang, from today onwards, you will be my woman."

For a moment I thought I was hallucinating.

The lofty Ye Junli, tell me, a female dancer from the Demon Area is his woman.

Ye Junli released me, his lips seemingly accidentally brushing against my cheek.

I panicked and quickly sat up from his body.

"Young Master Li, what are you doing … "Meaning?" My voice trembles a little.

"Literally." Ye Junli stood up and lightly patted his well-ironed suit just like before, "We are now in a cooperative relationship. If you want to destroy Hei Baozi, I have my own reasons too. I hope that our cooperation will be good."

After saying this, Ye Junli turned and left without even turning his head back.

I stared at his departing figure for a long time before I came to my senses.

I took the piece of information that he investigated me with and flipped through it a few times. I couldn't help but marvel at Ye Junli's meticulous investigation. Even my mother, who abandoned me long ago, had been thoroughly investigated.

I touched the word "Liu Rui" written on the paper. This was my mother's name, but I couldn't remember how long it had been since I last saw her. Even her appearance had started to blur in my mind.

I held this information close to my chest. I knew that from today onwards, what I had set up was not only an agreement between Ye Junli and I, but also a life that would never be peaceful for me from now on.

I left the Demon Area with this information.

I didn't sleep all night. Ye Junli's face would occasionally appear in my mind.

Ye Junli had messed up my entire life, but I was secretly delighted in my heart. I didn't know why, but I was looking forward to getting along with him.

Ye Junli, this name seemed to have some sort of magic to it. As long as he was able to taste it in his heart, he would feel an indescribable power.
