Push Me Away When I Come, Don't Hold Me Back When I Leave - Chapter 115

Chapter 115: A Melancholic and Unstable Second Young Lady

***

After entering Guiyu Mountain House, Xia Ruoming immediately noticed the woman sitting in the corner wearing light-colored sunglasses.

That face was the clearest in Xia Ruoming’s memory, second only to Xu Fengwu.

Unlike Ye Xue, who was known as the “silent eldest daughter” for her modest and polite demeanor, Ye Han had a completely different personality from her sister and was known in high society circles as the “melancholic and unstable second young lady.” While Jiang Ruhua would at least have a plan before taking action, Ye Han always acted on impulse without considering the consequences. Moreover, her methods of revenge after being offended were extremely vicious. Even those with more powerful backgrounds in high society circles didn’t want to provoke her carelessly, and if they had issues, they had to grudgingly accept them.

Xia Ruoming had never really liked Ye Han, after all, she felt that Ye Han was truly dark, not just on the outside but on the inside as well.

But there was one thing about Ye Han that Xia Ruoming felt inferior to in this life, Ye Han was absolutely devoted. Once she found someone she truly liked, she wouldn’t even glance at others, unlike herself who had developed feelings for several girls.

What a sin.

Perhaps sensing Xia Ruoming’s gaze focused on her, Ye Han immediately noticed Xia Ruoming who had just entered.

Xia Ruoming was wearing simple casual clothes, clearly from an inexpensive brand, standing out in this occasion where everyone was dressed formally.

Ye Han didn’t know why, even though this woman’s face was bare of makeup and she wore the kind of cheap clothes that she wouldn’t even want to look at, she had an indescribable air about her.

It was as if she wasn’t conforming to the environment, but rather the environment was conforming to her.

Even in such attire, she didn’t seem out of place in this setting, but rather quite fitting.

“Junior, please rest here for a while. I have some matters to attend to, so I won’t be able to accompany you here,” Jiang Huaiyun expressed some apology after escorting Xia Ruoming to her position, indicating he had other business.

“Senior, please go ahead. Thank you for today.”

Ye Han didn’t know what she and Jiang Huaiyun were talking about, but she also saw Xia Ruoming’s slight smile after their conversation ended. That smile somehow appeared enchantingly beautiful in her eyes.

Xia Ruoming also saw that when Jiang Huaiyun was leaving, he was suddenly stopped by Ye Han. The two seemed to be whispering about something, and after a short while, Jiang Huaiyun appeared very anxious before Ye Han let him leave.

Speaking of which, this was a love rival from her previous life, and quite a beauty too. If Xia Ruoming were the female protagonist in a novel, she might have felt some strong desire to conquer, but Xia Ruoming was very sensible. She knew she wasn’t any protagonist, and more importantly, she knew that looking at Ye Han for too long would be explosive. Once this woman became attached, she would be like super glue, impossible to shake off.

Even those playboy young masters wouldn’t choose to provoke Ye Han, not only because everyone knew she liked women, but also because Ye Han was really clingy and somewhat crazy. If she bit someone, even if she didn’t take a chunk of flesh, she’d at least leave a mark on the skin.

Better not to meddle if you can avoid it.

Originally, she had planned to get acquainted with Ye Han to help deal with Xu Fengwu’s matter, but her interactions with Xu Fengwu during this time had stirred some indefinable emotions in her heart, and she subsequently abandoned this idea.

But… heaven always seems unwilling to grant people’s wishes. Xia Ruoming watched as Ye Han, holding a glass of champagne, walked straight towards her and sat down in the seat opposite her.

“Oh my, who’s that? Don’t know her, but she dares to sit opposite the crazy woman. Doesn’t look like she’s from any prestigious family either.”

Nearby, someone who noticed Ye Han sitting opposite Xia Ruoming hurriedly asked their young master friend who Xia Ruoming was.

“I don’t know either, but I heard she was brought by Jiang Huaiyun, and she’s also a lesbian, probably one of those well-behaved girls who doesn’t like attention. I don’t know which family she’s from,” the friend shrugged, indicating they didn’t know either. “But daring to sit next to Second Young Lady Ye, looks like she’s never stepped out of her little greenhouse. She’s going to have a hard time now that she’s caught Ye Han’s attention.”

“A lesbian? Isn’t the crazy woman also a lesbian? Maybe she’s trying to get close to the crazy woman to skip fifty years of struggling, though the crazy woman is indeed beautiful. If I could win her over, it would be worth giving up all those ordinary girls.”

“Stop dreaming, even Jiang Huaiyun doesn’t want much contact with her, how could an ordinary person get close to her? It would just be self-torture.”

Xia Ruoming: I didn’t actively sit next to her, okay?

Her ears were sharp, and she naturally heard what the people over there were discussing. Hearing the content, Xia Ruoming felt utterly speechless. She had already actively stayed far away, but still couldn’t avoid it.

Xia Ruoming turned her head directly to look out the window, not sparing another glance at Ye Han, afraid that their eyes might meet the next second.

“Miss Ye, hello, I’m Li Bokan. Nice to meet you, may I sit here?”

Suddenly a male voice rang out, making Xia Ruoming put down the stone hanging in her heart. At the same time, Xia Ruoming also felt a bit sorry for this guy. She herself desperately needed someone with legal expertise like Ye Han, but she didn’t dare to approach her, yet this guy actively went up to her. it would be a miracle if he didn’t get snubbed.

“Pfft…” Ye Han laughed without any attempt to conceal it. Perhaps her sister Ye Xue would still respond with a polite smile, but she, Ye Han, could never learn such things.

She had heard a thing or two about who Li Bokan was, the heir to a corporation worth several billion, and although not comparable to her family, he was truly a quality bachelor.

But she had also heard that Li Bokan had never cared about who his lover was, they were all just objects for his use.

Li Bokan, who was usually extremely cold when talking to people, was putting on an act of being gentle and easy-going. Did he think she, Ye Han, was an idiot?

From childhood to adulthood, too many countless people had tried to curry favor with her, but Ye Han’s heart was like a bright mirror. People who approached her weren’t there for emotions, and no one would like someone with her strange temperament. Those who wanted to be with her were just after the Ye family’s support.

Ye Han never liked people who actively approached her; instead, she preferred people like Xia Ruoming.

She had learned from Jiang Huaiyun that Xia Ruoming was a lesbian, but Xia Ruoming, despite being a lesbian, had only glanced at her once and never paid attention to her again.

Even when she sat next to Xia Ruoming, Xia Ruoming showed no reaction at all, which directly sparked some kind of competitive spirit in Ye Han. Was she not beautiful enough?

“Hello, I’m Ye Han. What’s your name?” Ye Han ignored Li Bokan and asked in Xia Ruoming’s direction.

Actually, Ye Han knew what Xia Ruoming’s name was, but she had never met her before and could only find an excuse to start a conversation.

Jiang Huaiyun hadn’t told her specifically about Xia Ruoming’s background, only that she was attending the tea party in place of Jiang Ruhua.
