Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Chi Enen had just stepped outside the villa when Aunt Wang, who was waiting outside, called out to her. After leading her to a quiet corner of the garden. Aunt Wang took her hand and asked with concern, “Enen, are you alright? 1 heard that Young Master Jue lost his temper just now, he didn’t hurt you, did he?1’

Chi Enen shook her head, “I m fine, Aunt Wang.11

“That’s good, that’s good. Young Master Jue; he… well…” she trailed off.

Chi Enen had no desire to know about Li Beijue’s affairs and didn’t ask, but Aunt Wang spoke up anyway, “Enen, don’t be mad at Young Master Jue. He didn’t mean to hurt you; it’s just that he can’t control his temper.”

“…What do you mean?”

“You know, Young Master Jue has always had a mild case of paranoia. After you left without a word five years ago, his condition got worse, and he even started suffering from insomnia. At the worst point, he took medication every day to no avail. Later, Young Master Jue went abroad for treatment for a year and began to improve a bit, but he still frequently loses control of his temper.’’

On her way back, Chi Enen pondered over Aunt Wang’s words.

Li Beijue had paranoia, and it was serious…

It got worse after she disappeared without a word five years ago; he had to take medication and even went abroad for treatment.

Chi Enen struggled with a sense of disbelief.

She knew that Li Beijue was always very possessive. When they were together in the past, he wouldn’t allow her to have any contact with other men, not even to talk to them. Yet he himself was often rumored to be involved with female celebrities. At the time, she hadn’t thought about paranoia, merely that he had the temper of a Young Master, typically allowing only officials to set fires while forbidding the common people to light lamps.

It turned out to be paranoia.

Chi Enen was distracted the whole way home. After she arrived, she poured herself a cup of water and warmed her stomach before she started to feel a bit better.

The next day, Chi Enen arrived at the set punctually.

After shooting her scenes, she stepped out and saw Sheng Aiyi waiting outside.

Chi Enen had anticipated Sheng Aiyi would come for her, so she wasn’t surprised and approached her proactively.

“Miss Sheng, just a moment, let me put my things away.”

Her calm demeanor left Sheng Aiyi with nothing to say, so she just nodded, as if to give consent.

After Chi Enen took off her costume and handed it over to logistics, she walked back to her.

“Sorry to keep you waiting.”

“It’s okay.”

“You have something you want to ask me, Miss Sheng?”

“I do have a little something I’d like to ask you.”

All through the exchange, Sheng Aiyi observed her, and after a careful look, rhe weight in her heart grew heavier.

It had to be said, Chi Enen wasn’t a top beauty, but she naturally had a charm that drew men’s attention.

“I remember you telling me that you and Young Master Jue only had a one-time encounter. I want to ask if you were lying to me?”

Here it comes!

Chi Enen knew Sheng Aiyi wanted to talk about Li Beijue. The day before yesterday, he had carried her off to the clinic in front of so many people; it’d be weird if Sheng Aiyi, as his official girlfriend, didn’t come to have a talk’ with her.

Better to clear up any misunderstandings sooner rather than later.

Just as Chi Enen was about to offer an explanation, Sheng Aiyi already gathered her hair and spoke for herself, “Don’t get me wrong; I’m not here to dig into your past with Young Master Jue. Even if you don’t tell me, I can guess what your relationship with him was.”

“I’m here today to ask for a promise. 1 hope you will no longer appear in front of Young Master Jue, it’s very troubling for me.”

It was the tone of a main wife addressing a mistress.

Chi Enen took a deep breath, looked into Sheng Aiyi’s eyes, and said calmly, “Miss Sheng, rest assured, I have never intended to appear before your Young Master Jue. Not in the past, not now, and not in the future.”

Sheng Aiyi’s expression turned strange as she glanced behind Chi Enen, her pupils filled with a hint of panic.

“Young Master Jue…”

Chi Enen ’swished’ around, following her gaze, and sure enough, she saw a man approaching from a distance. His face was as grim as the depths of Long Winter, bearing the cold air of Siberia.

Don’t be mad at Young Master Jue, he doesn’t want to hurt you, it’s just that he can’t control his temper. He has serious paranoia.

Chi Enen shivered all over.

Li Beijue’s face was taut, his thin lips pressed tightly without a hint of curvature, walking closer with an expressionless face.

Step by step.

With each step, Chi Enen felt her heart rise, and at rhe moment her heart seemed to stop, the cold-faced man didn’t even cast a glance her way, but instead walked past her to Sheng Aiyi.

Sheng Aiyi nervously lifted her head to look at him, unsure about what to explain, her pupils scattered, “Young Master Jue, I…”

Li Beijue suddenly extended his hand naturally and wrapped it around her shoulder, pulling her dominantly into his embrace.

Startled by contact with the man’s firm chest, Sheng Aiyi blushed.

“If you want to know something in the future, ask me. Don’t go asking irrelevant people.”

Cold, distant.

It was hard to tell that just yesterday he had shouted about his lingering feelings for her.

This was for the best.

Chi Enen let out a sigh of relief, turned around, and quietly left.

She had just walked away.

The next second, Li Beijue released his grip from around Sheng Aiyi’s shoulders, his pupils stern, “I’ve got something else to do. I’m leaving first.” Sheng Aiyi took a step forward to stop him.

“Young Master Jue, this evening my aunt wants to invite you for a meal. Do you have the time?”

“I’m busy.”

As soon as those words were spoken, he had already walked far away..
