Ye Shengge had rushed to the bathroom to look in the mirror after waking up. It was an indescribable feeling.
She had fantasized countless times about how great it would be if the birthmark disappeared one day, but she hadnât expected it to come true!
Besides, it had been hours since the birthmark disappeared, and she hadnât felt any changes. She had been mentally prepared, but... the door to her memories was still closed.
She felt both disappointed and relieved.
Ji Shiting looked at her smooth face and his eyes dimmed.
âYes,â he said hoarsely. âYou look better.â
Ye Shengge asked, âAre you... not the least bit tempted?â
The man curled his lips and stroked her face. âI would die if my heart doesnât move.â (the literal translation of tempted is heart move)
Ye Shengge was livid at such an answer, but she couldnât say anything.
She mumbled, âYou might ignore me today, but Iâll make sure you canât reach me tomorrow.â
Ji Shiting raised an eyebrow and said, âWhat are you mumbling about?â
âNothing.â She blushed. âIâm hungry.â
Ye Shengge was looking for a topic at the dining table.
Ji Shiting smiled back, even though he only replied with one or two words each time.
After dinner, Ji Shiting looked at her and said, âIâll go to the study to handle some work. Rest early, okay?â
âOkay.â Ye Shengge smiled at him. âGo ahead. I still want dessert.â
The womanâs bright smile softened Ji Shitingâs heart. He pinched her face and nodded.
However, he didnât notice that the womanâs smile disappeared the moment he turned around.
Ye Shengge looked at the food in her bowl and lost her appetite.
The manâs attitude didnât seem to have changed, but he was so distracted when he was talking to her. Women in love were very sensitive. She knew very well that he was thinking about something else at that time, even though he seemed very focused.
If he wasnât even interested in talking to her, it meant that... he wasnât interested in her anymore.
Ye Shengge didnât want her imagination to run wild, but she had just confessed to him, and he hadnât given her any response. Forget it. She hadnât been looking forward to it anyway.
However, he wouldnât immediately lose interest in her after she confessed to him, would he?
It wasnât impossible. After all, hadnât he already already caught his prey, hadnât he? And this prey had foolishly said she wanted him to fall in love with her... Did he find her ridiculous?
Ye Shengge clenched her chopsticks, feeling suffocated.
Sister Xiu served the desserts and smiled, âYoung Madam, the dessert chef made your favorite tiramisu today.â
Ye Shengge forced a smile and said, âEat it, Sister Xiu. I donât have any appetite.â
She then put down her chopsticks and returned to her room.
...
Ji Shiting immediately called Gu Yimo after returning to the study.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYe Wenhua said sheâs changed a lot.â Ji Shiting put one hand on the desk and said. âWhat happened?â
âWhat he means is that sister-in-law has been a bit moody ever since,â Gu Yimo explained. âFor example, sometimes she gets very bad-tempered, which made Ye Haocheng and his wife very upset.â
It seemed that the change in Shenggeâs personality was the cause of Ye Haocheng and his wifeâs determination to make her lose her memory. That matched what Jun Hua had said.
