Adoption: Promises of Love - Chapter 64

Adoption Chapter 65: Sadness

Like a freshly blossomed rose bright red, passionate, rosy, but inexplicably with hurt.
Ye Zimei was wearing a long, close-fitting dress, the red wine glass on her right fingertips swaying elegantly, the red wine swirling around in the glass, rippling out in a circle.
The original hot beauty who would be swaying around on such occasions, but today it was like she was draped in a layer of thin ice, turning into a cold and thorny rose that made people shy away.
A glass of red wine slowly poured into his mouth, slowly sliding down his throat and flowing into his stomach, stirring that already uncomfortable part.
It was good to hurt a little, that way, the other part would hurt less.
“You’re not too young, take advantage of today’s opportunity to see if there’s anyone you see eye to eye, dad thinks it’s okay he’ll help you arrange a blind date.”
Before the banquet started Ye Yuanchang said this to Ye Zimei, Ye Zimei smiled without saying anything, but her heart was full of mockery.
Their father was like this, always like this.
Putting her wine glass down and lifting her skirt Ye Zi Mei prepared to go upstairs.
“Sis, are you going to look for Zixi?”
At the stairway the two siblings happened to meet.
“Uh, you too?”
“I was, but since you’re going up, I’ll trouble you to take a message for me.”
“What is it?”
Thinking that Ye Zichen didn’t want to see Ye Ziwen either, Ye Zimei didn’t push back.
“At least it’s my brother’s birthday, let him at least come down and show his face, as a way to give me some face.”
Ye Ziwen’s words made sense and looking at the expression was normal, Ye Zi Mei nodded her head in agreement, “If she’s physically able, I’ll bring her down.”
“Then, I’ll trouble sister.”
With a slight smile, Ye Ziwen made a gentlemanly motion of please and watched Ye Zimei go upstairs before leaving.
There was nothing for him to do next, he would find that guy Albert to settle the score, and after that, he would just wait and watch the show.
In a good mood, Ye Zi Mei whistled a few times, and then collected himself when he stepped into the banquet hall.
Pretending to be a gentleman and all that was really tiring.
“Ziggy, can I come in?”
“Come in.”
Leafy’s voice was husky and she seemed really sick.
“How’s the body?”
Walking into the dimly lit room, Ye Zimei frowned and walked over to the window to pull back the curtains before sitting down next to Ye ZiDi.
“Not bad, can’t die.”
Blocking the sunlight with the back of her hand, Ye Zi Mei spoke indifferently.
“Ziwen said to go down and show your face if you can hold out.”
“Well, at least it’s your brother’s birthday, it’s really not a good idea for you not to show up, but if you can’t handle it, I’ll talk to him for you.”
The back of his hand was pressed against Ye ZiDi’s forehead to feel it for a moment, making sure that the other party didn’t have a fever Ye Mei was a little more relieved.
“Heh, will he care if I participate or not too?”
“Don’t say that, I see that he’s in a good mood today, so go down and congratulate him, maybe the last time is over, Zi Wen isn’t a petty person.”
Ye Zi Mei’s words were rewarded with an exaggerated laugh that caused tears to spill out of the corners of her eyes.
“Ye Zi Mei, you really …… haha ……”
Ye Zichen sat up and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, looking at Ye Zimei with a smile on her face before cupping her face and kissing her on the lips.
“You can still be so innocent in this Ye family, I really admire you.”
Fingers touched the other party’s lips.
“If you could have told me earlier that you liked me, if I hadn’t fallen in love with brother Luo, maybe I would have chosen to be with you and left the Ye family and traveled far away.”
“But I can’t go back anymore.”
“Luo Yi must have laid out a trap waiting for me down there today.”
“Zi Mei, I’m a little tired and don’t want to fight them anymore.”
“So you help me eradicate them completely.”
“Luo Yi or Brother Luo.”
Silently looking at the oddly looking Ye Ziyi, Ye Zimei held the cold hands that were holding her face.
“Okay, if doing this will cheer you up, I promise.”
They stared at each other and smiled, a smile so beautiful and yet so sad.
