The door of the private room opened.
Inside, men and women were swaying to the flashing lights, making it impossible to tell who was who.
Fortunately, there were none of the indecent scenes An Nuan had imagined.
"Miss An, Mr. Ye is inside," the waiter said respectfully.
"Thank you," An Nuan nodded slightly.
She lightly pursed her lips and walked in.
Walked in.
In fact, she didn't have to look very hard to see the man sitting on the sofa, one leg crossed over the other, holding a glass in his hand - Ye Jinghuai.
The corner of his mouth lifted in an amused smile.
He had clearly already seen her.
But he didn't take the initiative to greet her.
An Nuan really couldn't stand the sound from the speakers - the shrieking and cheering.
She felt like no matter how much she tried to get used to this environment, it would be very difficult.
She stood in front of Ye Jinghuai. "Could you clear the room?"
The handsome corner of Ye Jinghuai's mouth still curved up, and his brows furrowed slightly.
He seemed not to have heard what she said.
An Nuan raised her voice a little. "Could you clear the room?"
Judging from Ye Jinghuai's facial expressions, he still didn't hear it.
An Nuan gritted her teeth.
She bent down, moved closer to Ye Jinghuai's face, and said in his ear, "Could you..." Ah!"
An Nuan lost her balance.
Someone behind her suddenly bumped into her, pushing her directly into Ye Jinghuai's embrace.
Her whole body leaned over.
It looked just like she was throwing herself at him.
Even someone as calm as An Nuan felt a little flustered by this situation.
What was even more flustering was that the woman who had accidentally bumped into her while dancing let out a shriek, perhaps startled.
That shriek attracted everyone's attention in the private room.
And their attention was drawn to Third Master Ye with a woman lying in his arms. In Third Master Ye's tall frame, she looked very petite, and very alluring...
Just this scene.
This scene so different from the norm stunned everyone.
Rumor had it that Third Master Ye was promiscuous with women.
But no one had ever personally witnessed this rumor.
In fact, wherever Third Master Ye was, women would tactfully stay away, no one daring to overstep.
Yet now.
Right before everyone's eyes.
Third Master Ye actually had a woman in his embrace.
And Third Master Ye was even smiling.
When he smiled, there was clearly a trace of...indulgence.
Faced with the scene before them, no one dared to say a word.
They didn't even dare look too long.
In fact, Third Master Ye had never done anything too unlawful or murderous. But anyone who had seen Third Master Ye would be filled with awe and fear towards him.
"Qin Jiang, turn off the speakers," said Ye Jinghuai.
His voice was neither loud nor soft.
The man sitting next to Ye Jinghuai, Qin Jiang, nodded.
Qin Jiang didn't hear it very clearly either, but having grown up together since childhood, their tacit understanding was unmatched.
He got up and turned off the speakers.
By now, An Nuan had already crawled out of Ye Jinghuai's embrace.
When she got up, her face was clearly somewhat flushed.
Ever since she was young, she had always paid great attention to her manners and etiquette, and had never been so rude before, let alone take the initiative to throw herself into a man's embrace like that.
During those ten years married to Gu Yan Sheng, she had maintained her propriety.
Gu Yan Sheng had treated her the same way during those years, and they had respected each other.
She used to think that was the best kind of marriage.
Only now did she realize it was because Gu Yan Sheng had no feelings for her.
With the speakers off, the room suddenly became quiet.
In the quiet, An Nuan actually felt even more uneasy.
She looked up at Ye Jinghuai, who was still sitting on the sofa with an unchanged expression.
She said, "Everyone else, leave."
Then all the men and women very tactfully left the room entirely.
Leaving just her, Ye Jinghuai.
And Qin Jiang, who was clearly there to watch the show, standing to the side.
An Nuan secretly adjusted her emotions.
She was inevitably a little annoyed in that moment.
That jerk Ye Jinghuai had clearly heard what she said earlier and deliberately pretended not to, making her embarrass herself.
Otherwise,
how would he have known to clear the room when she hadn't even finished speaking into his ear?
She told herself,
Don't try to compete with this man.
After all, she still needed his help.
She said, "Doesn't he need to leave too?"
An Nuan's gaze fell upon Qin Jiang, Eldest Young Master of the Qin family.
Although the Qin family didn't rank among the four great families, its momentum of development in recent years was considerable. It was said the Qin family had connections in both legitimate and illegitimate circles, and rumors even said the Qin patriarch had ties to prestigious families in the capital. Ordinary people didn't dare provoke the Qin family, and would even take the initiative to defer to them.
In fact, those rumors about the Qin family were not unfounded.
Moreover, having lived an additional ten years, An Nuan was very clear that the Qin family did indeed have an impressive background.
So seeing Qin Jiang now, she couldn't help but look him over a bit more.
She just didn't quite understand why Qin Jiang, as eldest son of the influential Qin family, was tagging along behind Ye Jinghuai.
Just who was Ye Jinghuai?
To make the Qin family's eldest young master so willing to obey his every command...
But when all was said and done,
the most accurate description of their relationship was sworn brothers.
Whenever they were up to no good, they were always in it together!
"He doesn't need to leave," Ye Jinghuai affirmed.
His meaning was also very clear.
Qin Jiang's relationship with him was extraordinary - he was one of their own.
An Nuan wouldn't dwell on such trifles either. Since Ye Jinghuai said Qin Jiang was trustworthy,
she had no need to be wary.
She said, "I've thought it over. For the matter of annulling my marriage with Gu Yan Sheng, I'm not capable enough on my own and need your assistance."
Ye Jinghuai casually drank from the glass in his hand, his eyes fixed on An Nuan, not giving any response.
An Nuan went on, "The best way to directly annul my marriage with Gu Yan Sheng is to expose his scandals. Gu Yan Sheng has many ugly scandals, but the one that would utterly ruin his reputation is cheating! Especially exposing his infidelity at his loving wedding would be the most devastating blow to this hypocrite!"
Ye Jinghuai listened to An Nuan's words, calmly drinking down the liquid in his glass.
His Adam's apple bobbed up and down.
Somehow indescribably sexy, making it hard to ignore.
An Nuan averted her eyes and said, "I need your help to get the video exposing his affair."
Ye Jinghuai set his glass down.
He got up and walked over to stand in front of An Nuan.
Even with high heels on today, An Nuan was still a good deal shorter than Ye Jinghuai.
She stood up straight, meeting his gaze directly.
Not letting her aura be suppressed by him.
"Miss An, didn't you just go to the Gu family today to discuss marriage? How is it you've just agreed to marry someone, and now want to ruin them? With Miss An making such unreasonable moves, how can I trust you?"
So.
Ye Jinghuai still didn't trust her!
