"Master Ye! Do we really need to do this?" The boy was drenched in sweat.

"Stop talking nonsense! You scumbag who betrayed Miss!" Ye Shuang shouted and relentlessly pursued him, her fair hand transforming into a chop to strike the boy's face.

"I never intended to be with her from the beginning! How can this be called betrayal?" The boy caught her chop to deflect the force and tried to grab her wrist.

"Then why did you lie to me before and say you liked Miss?! You were actually cheating on me with three women at the same time! I really didn't expect you to be this kind of person!" The girl grabbed the boy's arm and unleashed a terrifying force with her delicate body, slamming him to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw.

The boy wrapped himself around the girl's body in mid-air, using contortion to bind her arms behind her back. "Master Ye, can you give me a chance to explain?! There's a reason why things turned out this way!"

"Cheng Fei! I will never believe a single word you say again! You have never told me the truth!" The girl broke free with agile movements, turned around and slammed a whip kick at the boy, her voice trembling with sobs.

"How could there not be a single truth in my words? At least I meant it when I said you were cute!" The boy blocked her whip kick with his hand, but the girl kept attacking him with her legs, and he had no choice but to block and retreat.

"Cheng Fei! You still dare to flirt with me even now?!" The girl's eyes were red, and her attacks became increasingly fierce.

"How can this be called teasing? You're just so cute!" The boy desperately defended himself, trying his best not to hurt either of them.

"Cheng Fei! Don't think I'll let you off the hook just because you're spouting nonsense! I'm not as easily fooled as Nana. What I hate most is... frivolous people like you!" The girl threw a reckless straight punch at the boy, and crystal tears detached from her eyes, hanging in the air and slowly falling.

"Master Ye! Can you calm down and listen to my explanation? My relationship with Nana isn't what you think at all!" The boy barely dodged the fist aimed at his face, the powerful shockwave pulling at the stray hairs on his forehead.

"What other stories are you trying to tell me? Do you think I'll believe you again?!"

"Can't you give me a chance?!"

"I gave you a chance! You always lied to me and brushed me off! Cheng Fei! Why did you do this to me?!" The girl's cries were almost hoarse, yet she still stubbornly threw punch after punch at the boy.

"I never expected it to turn out like this! I thought you weren't even aware of it at the time!" The boy caught her punch after punch.

"You think you can do those things to me just because I didn't realize it? What do you take me for?!" The girl's beautiful face, with its delicate features, broke into tears as she launched her attack in vain.

"I had my reasons for doing this! Pulling you back from the brink of death comes at a price. Just think of it as me giving you CPR, okay?!"

"Then why didn't you just tell me? Why did you have to keep it from me?!" The girl gritted her teeth, suppressing the urge to cry.

"I'll tell you why now! First, I have a secret that I can't tell anyone, not even Shen Xi and Nana! Second, I only wanted to be friends with you back then. I was afraid you would misunderstand, and I was also afraid that Shen Xi and Nana would be heartbroken if they knew about this!" The boy tried his best to dodge or block her increasingly weak fists.

"Cheng Fei! Stop being so narcissistic! Do you think I would fall for you so easily?! You've wronged Miss, and I will never forgive you!" The girl was panting heavily, her chest heaving violently, and her eyes were red from crying, making her look like a little rabbit caught in a frenzy, which was indescribably pitiful.

"Master Ye! Does being with Xuanqi for even one day mean I have to be with her for the rest of my life? Don't you think that's incredibly unfair?!" The boy was also severely exhausted, barely managing to stay afloat thanks to [Rapid Recovery].

"I can't control this kind of thing! Do you know how much Miss likes you right now?! How heartbroken she would be if she knew all this?!" The girl used all her strength to throw her over her shoulder again.

This time, the boy was too weak to break free and was slammed hard onto the sandy shore with a dull thud.

The girl staggered closer to the boy, straddled him, grabbed his collar with one hand, and raised her other fist high.

"Ye Shuang! Are you out of your mind?! You keep calling me 'Miss' all day long, you've abandoned all conscience for her sake?! She was the one who tried to kill me without even knowing what happened. If it weren't for Shen Xi, I would be dead already! Why? Just because I called her name once in the game!" The boy stared intently into the girl's eyes, his rage surging and spreading deep within his pupils like a lion about to break free of its cage. "What right does she have to be sad now?! I've already been more than merciful by not strangling that self-righteous bastard!"

Ye Shuang gasped for breath, her mouth slightly open, staring intently into the boy's eyes. Her brows were furrowed, and a complex mix of emotions—anger, disappointment, sadness—swirled in her tear-filled eyes.

"Master Ye, if you still think I'm in the wrong, then go ahead and do it. From now on, we're even. You can tell Lin Xuanqi everything. I've had enough of her anyway." The young man said softly, then relaxed and lay down on the sand. He looked up at the sky, which had become overcast, took a deep breath, and his expression became calm.

Ye Shuang stared at him, narrowed her eyes, her fist clenched trembling in mid-air, and her expression became resolute.

A few seconds later, warm liquid dripped onto the boy's face.

The boy turned his gaze and met those violently trembling eyes. Tears welled up from the girl's red eyes like a burst dam. She sniffed hard, loosened her fists, grabbed the boy's collar with both hands, looked down at him, and kept slapping his face with her tears.

"Cheng Fei, you're deliberately bullying me...!" Overwhelmed with uncontrollable bitterness, the girl burst into tears.

588. Ye Shuang asked Cheng Fei for a guarantee.

When the two stopped fighting, the thunderous explosions on the coastline subsided, and soon after, real thunder came from the horizon.

Like ink spreading across the sky, dark clouds swept rapidly from the sea, and the weather at the seaside could change in an instant.

The two rushed back to their car before the torrential rain completely stopped.

Soon, a thick curtain of rain engulfed the world outside the car, and the raindrops pounded against the car body, making a continuous sound, plunging the interior into another desolate dimension.

Ye Shuang sat in the passenger seat, her beautiful face streaked with tears. Her red eyes stared into the distance, occasionally letting out a sob and swallowing hard.

Cheng Fei turned on the reading light above his head, turned his head to look at the girl with pigtails whose little hands were clenched tightly, thought for a moment, and then tore off a tissue and handed it to her.

The girl remained unmoved, holding her chin up and letting her tears flow freely.

"No wonder Nana likes you, you're both such crybabies." The boy shook his head and sighed.

"Cheng Fei!" The girl gritted her teeth and turned to glare at him.

"Master Ye, what's wrong now?" The boy instinctively made a blocking motion.

"I'll give you whatever you want now. Even if I wronged you before, am I not good enough to you now?!" The girl's voice trembled with tears. "Why won't you just stay with me properly?!"

The boy met her gaze, grinned, and said, "Master Ye, I'm the kind of person who holds grudges."

"So what exactly do you want to do to Miss?!" Ye Shuang frowned as she stared at the young man, her chin trembling.

Cheng Fei paused for a moment, then asked, "What would you do if I told you I wanted to kill her?"

The girl's pupils constricted, and she grabbed the boy's collar, her eyes trembling violently. "If you dare kill Miss, I will definitely kill you! I mean what I say!"

"Master Ye, you're too loyal to her. You still say you're not her maid?" The young man smiled helplessly.

"Cheng Fei! Don't be so frivolous, I'm serious, I really will kill you!" The girl with pigtails gritted her teeth and glared at him fiercely.

"Don't get agitated, Master Ye. At least I haven't killed anyone yet, right?" The boy raised his hands in surrender.

"Cheng Fei, I want you to promise never to hurt Miss again, or we'll be enemies from now on." Ye Shuang sniffed, her eyes filled with tears as she gazed at the young man.

Cheng Fei stared at her for a moment, sensing the determination deep in her trembling eyes, and spread his hands, "Master Ye, if I want to kill her, even you can't stop me."

"Then what exactly do you want to be satisfied?!" The girl stared at the boy with wide eyes, new tears welling up in her eyes.

"However, for your sake, I can promise not to harm her, but only physically. Also, in the future, if she dares to kill me again, I won't be polite." The young man said casually.

"Miss would never kill you now. You have no idea how much Miss loves you. She has never been so good to anyone!" Ye Shuang raised her voice.

"I don't understand, just like I don't understand why she wanted to kill me so easily. Whatever, I have no obligation to understand her. In my opinion, she's just a bastard woman who needs to be educated." The boy shrugged.

"Then what else do you want to do to her?" The girl's face was full of confusion.

"At least get rid of her first, right? I promised Shen Xi." The young man watched as glistening tears rolled down that pretty face, unmoved.

Ye Shuang stared intently at the boy in front of her, gripping his collar tightly and remaining motionless, as if frozen in this moment, with only the torrential rain pouring down outside the car window proving the passage of time.

After a long while, the girl pushed the boy away, leaned back in her chair, wiped away her tears haphazardly with her sleeve, sniffed, and said in a muffled voice, "Cheng Fei, you'll regret breaking up with Miss. There's no one in the world who treats you better than her."

"Maybe she's richer, and being with her would mean a life of comfort, but in my opinion, Shen Xi and Nana are better than her, and Master Ye, you're better than her too." The young man said seriously.

"What nonsense are you spouting now?!" Ye Shuang's expression changed, and she grabbed the boy's collar again.

"Master Ye, don't get agitated." The young man raised his hands in surrender, looking at her face. "I'm just telling the truth. In my eyes, you are very cute."

"Don't think I'll forgive you just because you're saying this nonsense, Cheng Fei. I'll kill you even if you lay a finger on Miss!" the girl said fiercely.

"Master Ye, you're so fierce. As long as she doesn't move, I won't move either, okay?" the boy said earnestly.

"You better not lie to me!" The girl's clear voice carried a hint of ferocity.

"Master Ye, trust me." The young man looked into her eyes.

After a brief eye contact, the girl looked away first, released the boy, lowered her head and whispered, "Take me home, I'm tired."

“No problem.” The boy glanced at her.

The Panamera started its engine, turned around, and slowly accelerated, heading back along the road it had come from.

The pretty girl with pigtails leaned back in her chair, her eyes slightly swollen from crying, her face streaked with tears. She looked out the window with her eyes downcast, her expression a mix of grievance and sadness, like a girlfriend who had just broken up with her boyfriend.

The rainstorm came and went quickly. By the time Cheng Fei drove back to the city, the sky had cleared up, the azure sky was clear and the air after the rain carried a refreshing coolness.

"Master Ye, so I won just now?" The young man gripped the steering wheel, not without pride.

"No, that doesn't count." Ye Shuang sniffed, raised her head and puffed out her chest, her face cold. "I just spared you."

"So that's how it is?" the boy exclaimed in surprise.

“I don’t think it’s meaningful to force you to be with Miss anymore. After all, you hate her so much, and you also…” The girl with pigtails opened her mouth, but suddenly her nose stung, and she couldn’t say the words.

"Playing the field?" the boy asked sideways.

"How dare you say that?!" Ye Shuang gritted her teeth.

"Master Ye, it's a long story how things turned out this way, but you probably don't want to hear it, so I won't go into details." The young man shook his head.

Ye Shuang opened her mouth.

"Although Shen Xi and Nana argue occasionally, they get along quite well most of the time. I won't let them down. They have no complaints, so please don't make me seem heartless." The boy said helplessly.

"So you're going to let Miss down?!" The girl was even more furious.

"Master Ye, is there any need to repeat this question?"

"..." The girl turned her face away.

"So we've made up? Can we still be friends like before?" The boy smiled.

"Don't even think about it! I'll never be friends with a scumbag like you again. Don't think I can't guess, that's how you tricked Nana into your hands!" Ye Shuang looked at him like he was a human trafficker.

Cheng Fei hesitated, then said, "Master Ye, you've really misunderstood me. To be honest, it was Nana who took the initiative back then. I didn't lie to her."

589. Cheng Fei earned the title of Ye Shuang's most hated person in the world.

"Stop slandering Nana! How could someone as innocent as her possibly take the initiative with you?" Ye Shuang's expression was full of hostility.

"If you don't believe me, ask her yourself," Cheng Fei said helplessly.

"I don't believe it, and I won't ask her. She's an idiot. She told me all this before, and... Anyway, she'll definitely speak up for you!" The girl stumbled and raised her voice.

"Master Ye, there's an old saying that the louder the voice, the less confident you are," Cheng Fei reminded him calmly.

"You frivolous and shameless scumbag! I don't want to talk to you!" Ye Shuang gritted her teeth, turned her face away and shut her mouth, her pretty face full of anger.

For a well-bred young lady who is always well-behaved, polite, and well-mannered, this is probably the most vicious way to insult someone.

Cheng Fei rubbed his chin, smacked his lips, and decided to focus on driving.

Not long after, the Panamera stopped downstairs in the familiar residential area.

The girl with pigtails, looking displeased, got out of the passenger seat, slammed the door shut, and strode forward.

Cheng Fei got out of the car and walked quietly to the side.

"Why are you still following me?!" Ye Shuang turned her head to glare at him and stomped her foot hard.

"Master Ye, it's been a long time since I visited your home. Now that we've reconciled, won't you invite me up for a bit?" The young man asked calmly, looking into the girl's eyes.

"Don't even think about it! Cheng Fei, I will never again let you, this scumbag, tease, bully, and take advantage of me like before!" The girl's hateful expression seemed to show that she had seen through a person overnight.

"You're exaggerating, Master Ye. I haven't done anything to you before, have I?"

You know perfectly well what you've done!

"Except on the life raft, at other times..."

"Are you still going to say something? Shut up!" Ye Shuang's eyes started to redden again, and she interrupted him with a sob in her voice.

Cheng Fei zipped up his mouth and raised his hands in surrender.

The girl with pigtails wiped her eyes haphazardly, sniffed, and turned to leave without a word.

"Master Ye, how about we start over as friends? I promise I won't lie to you again this time." The young man put his hands in his pockets and looked at Ye Shuang's back.

The girl trembled slightly, her steps faltering. After a few seconds, she clenched her small fists, turned her head, and said coldly, "Cheng Fei, the person I hate most in this world right now is you. I've seen through you. Don't even think about using friendship as an excuse to be ambiguous with me anymore. I'm not that stupid!"

As soon as she finished speaking, her figure quickly disappeared into the stairwell.

Cheng Fei stood there stunned for a long time, then smacked his lips, shook his head, turned around and got into the car. "Forget it, forget it."

……

Ye Shuang walked out of the elevator expressionlessly, opened her front door, and went straight upstairs.

A middle-aged woman trimming plants by the French windows caught a glimpse of her retreating figure. "You're back? Did you get caught in the rain?"
