Ye Wanqing gently closed the folding umbrella in her hand, her eyes gently falling on Jiang Yubo who was slowly folding up the umbrella, and asked softly, "Why are you out so early today?"

Jiang Yubo pulled out a delicate USB flash drive from the inside pocket of his suit. Silver patterns inlaid on it gleamed faintly in the morning light. "I seem to have left this here in my haste yesterday."

Ye Wanqing's eyes swept across the USB flash drive in his hand, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "The backup USB flash drives I have here can form a small team."

"Oh?" Jiang Yubo replied casually, but his eyes involuntarily drifted to the wooden bookshelf behind Ye Wanqing, which was filled with various books and artworks. "Mr. Ye, don't you have any plans to go out sketching today?"

"Well, I haven't been in the mood lately." Ye Wanqing said as she gently pulled a few beautifully bound books from the shelf and placed them neatly aside. Then she looked up at Jiang Yubo and asked, "How is your wrist healing? Is today the day for your follow-up visit at the hospital?"

"Yes." Jiang Yubo responded briefly, his eyes falling on Ye Wanqing again, and he said with a half-smile: "Mr. Ye doesn't seem too happy about my visit today."

"Why do you say that?" Ye Wanqing frowned slightly, then relaxed. "However, frequent visits are indeed inappropriate."

Jiang Yubo raised his eyebrows, his tone a little amused: "What's the reason?"

Ye Wanqing chuckled, a complex emotion flashed in her eyes: "Don't you really understand?"

"Is it my status as a public figure that makes Mr. Ye feel inconvenienced? Or has my arrival caused trouble for Mr. Ye?" Jiang Yubo's words were filled with a hint of self-mockery.

Ye Wanqing sighed softly, her eyes gentle but firm: "Your current identity does make many things complicated."

"As a public figure, can't you come to the boss's house to enjoy a cup of fragrant tea?" Jiang Yubo's words were a bit sarcastic, but also seemed to be testing.

He paused for a moment and added, "If Mr. Ye doesn't want me to be here, I will leave immediately."

Ye Wanqing wasn't one to compromise easily, and Jiang Yubo's attempts clearly didn't work. She looked him straight in the eye, her tone calm yet undeniably powerful, "I really don't want this to happen."

Her smile was still gentle, but the determination in her words was like a chill breeze in spring.

Jiang Yubo was slightly stunned, and then revealed a look of hurt: "Boss Ye's words really chilled my heart."

"The truth is often not so pleasant to hear." Ye Wanqing shook her head slightly, turned and walked towards the stairs, her steps light and firm.

Jiang Yubo watched her walk up the stairs step by step, a complicated light flashed in his eyes, and finally he followed her:

"If I wasn't in my current position, would Mr. Ye still be so repulsive?"

He didn't say it explicitly, but Ye Wanqing understood.

At this moment, some people might choose to give the other person a way out, but Ye Wanqing was never that kind of person. She stopped, turned around, and looked at Jiang Yubo with a cold gaze:

"What kind of identity?"

"Pursuer." Jiang Yubo's answer was straightforward and honest, without any concealment.

She was direct, and he was straightforward. Their conversation was like a drizzle on a spring day, gentle yet powerful.

Ye Wanqing's laughter was like a flower blooming in spring, bright and sincere. The smile in the corners of her eyes seemed to melt the ice and snow, adding a touch of tenderness to her usual coldness. It was the first time Jiang Yubo saw her so happy, and a tenderness welled up in his heart that he couldn't bear to interrupt.

When her laughter died down, he spoke slowly, with a barely perceptible tenderness in his voice: "So, you have this side of you, too."

Ye Wanqing was slightly stunned, then she restrained her smile, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes: "Don't I usually smile?"

"No, it's just different." Jiang Yubo answered softly. Her smile usually carried a bit of distance, but at this moment, people could truly feel her joy and warmth.

"What's the difference?" she asked curiously.

"Feeling." He answered simply, his eyes full of meaning.

Ye Wanqing was slightly shocked when she heard this. This kind of evaluation was not the first time she had heard it. She lowered her eyes slightly and looked at Jiang Yubo downstairs again: "Perhaps, you are just delusional."

As she spoke, she picked up her phone, ready to contact Li Meng to take him to the hospital. At the same time, she was also ready to end this delicate entanglement: "I will ask Li Meng to come and take you to the hospital. From now on, we should keep a proper distance."

"Why?" There was a subtle insistence in Jiang Yubo's voice, but his tone was still calm, without the slightest resentment.

Ye Wanqing chuckled, with a hint of helplessness in her tone: "Why bother asking so many questions?"

"Is it because you still can't let go of Lin Xuan?" Jiang Yubo suddenly asked, with a hint of temptation in his tone.

Ye Wanqing's fingers paused as she dialed the number, then returned to normal: "You know a lot, but your guess isn't accurate."

"Then why don't you want to start a new relationship?" Jiang Yubo didn't seem to be planning to give up easily.

At this time, Li Meng's call could not be connected. Ye Wanqing could only hang up helplessly and send a message to Li Meng instead.

“Life is more than just love.”

She didn't want to continue this topic, so she turned and walked into the kitchen, poured herself a glass of juice, and while tasting it, she waited for Li Meng's reply.

Jiang Yubo followed her silently. He had been particularly talkative today, but at this moment he chose silence. He understood that once a line was crossed, there was no turning back.

Li Meng quickly saw Ye Wanqing's message and hurried to the villa to pick up Jiang Yubo.

Jiang Yubo was very cooperative and left with Li Meng without saying anything. But before leaving, he looked at Ye Wanqing deeply, his eyes full of reluctance.

Li Meng knew nothing about Jiang Yubo's recent whereabouts. After getting in the car, she couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Why did you go to Wanqing's place?"

Although the paparazzi's attention to Jiang Yubo has decreased now, it is still better to be cautious.

Jiang Yubo did not hide it: "When I left yesterday, I accidentally took Mr. Ye's things."

Li Meng immediately grasped the key point: "Why were you at Wanqing's house yesterday?"

"Let's go to Mr. Ye's house for dinner." Jiang Yubo answered as a matter of course.

Li Meng frowned when she heard this: "Wait, have you been eating at Mr. Ye's house these past few days?"

"Yes." Jiang Yubo admitted frankly.

Li Meng almost jumped up from her seat when she heard his answer: "Why do you always go to Wanqing's house for dinner? No wonder she asked me to pick you up today and even called me.

You are such an adult, don’t you know that you should keep a proper distance from your boss? Besides, she doesn’t like others to disturb her life! "

Li Meng began to suspect that Jiang Yubo wanted to use Ye Wanqing's status for personal gain.

Thinking of this, her face turned cold and hard: "Jiang Yubo, our Yuehua is not a company that relies on connections. If you are thinking of relying on the boss's connections to get ahead, then I advise you to quit this industry as soon as possible and leave our company as soon as possible."

Jiang Yubo looked at Li Meng with a serious look in his eyes: "I don't mean that. I just want to pursue Ye Wanqing."

Li Meng heaved a sigh of relief after hearing the first half of the sentence: "That's pretty good."

However, when she heard the second half of the sentence, her face instantly turned pale: "What do you mean by 'I just want to pursue Ye Wanqing'? Are you crazy? Do you know who Ye Wanqing is?"

"Ye Wanqing, my boss." Jiang Yubo answered concisely and clearly.

"Then why are you still talking nonsense?" Li Meng's voice was full of dissatisfaction.

Jiang Yubo raised the corner of his mouth slightly, as if he had anticipated Li Meng's surprise. "Sister Meng, let me ask a few questions. Is Ms. Ye single now? Or does she not plan to get married in the future?"

"It's true that I'm single, and getting married is a matter of time." Although Li Meng was unhappy, she still answered truthfully.

"So what?" Jiang Yubo asked.

Jiang Yubo's mouth curled up again, his eyes revealing an unquestionable determination: "Then why can't I pursue Mr. Ye?"

"Are you serious?" There was a hint of disbelief in Li Meng's voice. She finally understood that Jiang Yubo was not just talking casually.

Jiang Yubo's expression turned serious, and his tone was sincere: "Do I look like I'm joking?"

Li Meng rubbed his furrowed brows, sighed, and said helplessly, "I advise you to give up this idea. It's too unrealistic."

"Just because I'm a little-known artist?" Jiang Yubo smiled self-deprecatingly, with a hint of bitterness in his tone.

"Just keep it in mind." Li Meng's answer was merciless.

"But I don't think Mr. Ye is the kind of person who values material things. As long as he truly likes her, isn't that enough?" Jiang Yubo argued.

After hearing this, Li Meng was speechless for a moment.
