Chapter 779: Chapter 778 Are You Really Angry? _1 Chapter 779: Chapter 778 Are You Really Angry? _1 “Yeqian, are you really angry?” Zhao Xueli furrowed her brows, gripping his sleeve and murmuring apologetically, “I’m sorry, you have to believe me, I didn’t do it on purpose.”

“Stop bothering me, don’t think I’m that easy to trick.” Yeqian said coldly, prying her hand away, “I’m someone who despises deceit the most, don’t think I don’t know your intentions.”

Zhao Xueli was taken aback, her eyes shadowed over, “You seemed to like me, why…”

“I liked you?” Yeqian let out a derisive laugh, “Even though we’re only seventeen or eighteen, our minds are not as immature as that age would suggest. Did you really think I don’t understand anything? If I didn’t, I would have been devoured by the people in this industry a long time ago.”

He didn’t know what liking someone felt like.

Perhaps there hasn’t been a suitable girl yet.

Seeing Yeqian opening up, Zhao Xueli stopped playing the victim, quickly erasing the faint frailty from her expression, “I never thought you had some tricks up your sleeve, pretending to be a cute, naive little boy. Even I fell for your charade!”

Yeqian paused, slightly surprised.

The vulnerable persona she displayed moments ago had rapidly transformed, giving off an indescribable vibe.

The only crossover of their lives happened when she accidentally entered his dressing room during a recording of a show, seemingly escaping from a man who wanted her to drink with him. She refused and then took refuge in his space.

In the entertainment industry, it’s common for businessmen to demand female stars spend the night with them, and some men with unique tastes would seek male stars.

He had utter disgust for such behaviour; he took her in because she seemed pitiful.

Whether it was intentional or not, he would often catch sight of Zhao Xueli unexpectedly appearing.

Despite suspicions, he neither probed further nor exposed her.

Zhao Xueli shared many childhood stories which evoked his pity, making him believe that she had a tragic past.

Today, when he accidentally discovered a hidden camera on her, he immediately withdrew any sympathy he had for her.

Another person out to utilize him for their own success, the hideout in his dressing room must have been premeditated.

Again, another woman who deceived him.

To Qiao Xiaren, he truly seemed like a naive boy, yet naive doesn’t mean stupid, he’s just been hiding his true self.

“As expected, everyone in this industry survives through acting.” As Yeqian walked passed, Zhao Xueli stepped forward, blocking his path, leaning seductively against a nearby pillar, “I indeed planned to use you, but I failed, didn’t I? Why are you so worked up?”

She surprisingly had a straightforward side to her, much more refreshing compared to her earlier pretensions.

“Move away.”

With his hands in his pockets and one leg slightly bent, Yeqian’s aura suddenly became aloof.

Zhao Xueli found him amusing, flipping her long, wavy hair, she stepped closer, “You’re so handsome, I really don’t want to step aside.”

Caught off guard by her flirting, Yeqian’s face turned slightly red, making his fair, handsome face appear even more adorable and innocent.

Strictly speaking, he was only putting up a tough exterior, now he began to lose his composure.

Seeing his face turn red, Zhao Xueli suddenly felt a stir of emotions resembling a fluttering heartbeat, she then broke into a smile.

He really was a naive young man.

“I…don’t want to keep talking to a woman like you.”

Yeqian took off his baseball cap, smoothly his hair back and putting it on again in a hurry, seemingly trying to make a quick escape, which only made Zhao Xueli burst into laughter.
