Qiao Moyu trembled after hearing what was said. Why didn't the male lead and supporting male lead just PK each other? How come when the battle between them hasn't even heated up yet, the gunfire was directed in her direction?

She stood in place, awkwardly staring at Ye Peicheng and Xing Yichen.

Luckily, Xing Yichen was more interested in Ye Peicheng's attitude. As a result, he straightened up his body and moved a bit away from Qiao Moyu. He surveyed Ye Peicheng with a calm gaze and smiled in reply: “Mr. Ye seems to be very good at cracking jokes!”

At that time, Ye Peicheng had already reached Qiao Moyu and Xing Yichen. He didn't bother with Xing Yichen's words and instead faced Qiao Moyu, saying: “Little Moyu, come here.”

His words were calm, but they contained a kind of momentum that left people unable to refuse.

Qiao Moyu gulped. What happened to her today? She didn't seem to have given Ye Peicheng permission to dictate her actions?

Seeing Qiao Moyu's lack of movement, Ye Peicheng's still arm started tapping on his leg. He seemed like a patient hunter with a firmness in his eyes that showed a belief that his prey would eventually come to him.

“Moyu, I know that you are not familiar with him.” Xing Yichen opened his mouth. He faced Ye Peicheng: “Mr. Ye, I am about to go drink coffee with Qiao Moyu. Normally I would invite you to join, but today, I ordered a two person private room…”

Ah, this was really like pasting gold on one's face! Qiao Moyu criticized him in her mind, thinking that it was really a waste that the male lead didn't go become an actor.

Next to her, Xing Yicheng took the lead and walked forward with confidence in his eyes: “Moyu, lets go.”

He believed that Qiao Moyu might really have been swayed by Ye Peicheng these past few days, but her heart would still always stay on him.

In the past, he had rejected her wholehearted feelings; however, once he is willing to be with her, at most she will only be reserved for a bit. How would it be possible for her not to give him face in front of other men?

Xing Yichen walked toward the elevator and purposely slowed down his place. He could see out of the corner of his eye that Qiao Moyu had followed suit.

His lips curved into a smirk, feeling somewhat gratified and content.

Ye Peicheng stood still in his position the entire time, not even shifting his posture to look at them. But, Qiao Moyu could feel that with every step she took, Ye Peicheng's aura would drop by a few degrees.

She was shocked, but she had already followed Xing Yichen to the elevator.

Because the elevator was already at this floor, once he pressed the down button, the door immediately opened.

He beckoned Qiao Moyu: “Moyu, let's go.”

Qiao Moyu followed Xing Yichen into the elevator, and then looked out. She clearly saw Ye Peicheng standing in the distance. Although his appearance was still outstanding, it carried an air of loneliness.

Her heart felt like it was lightly stabbed by something, but the feeling was too fleeting. Before she was able to think about it, it had already gone away.

At this time, the elevator door was starting to automatically close.

Qiao Moyu abruptly reached out her hand and slammed it down on the open door button.

Next to her, Xing Yicheng was dumbfounded: “Moyu, what's wrong?”

Qiao Moyu faced him with a sly smile, lifted up her foot, and then stepped down on Xing Yichen's leather shoes without mercy.
