Jiang Qingqing's first step in fleeing her arranged marriage: move into her ex-boyfriend's home.
Her ex-boyfriend's place is so neat and tidy it looks like a show home. Jiang Qingqing looks around, finds it satisfactory, and barges right in.
Watching Jiang Qingqing act as if she has every right to be there, Jiang Ye cannot help clicking his tongue.
He rudely pushes Jiang Qingqing's legs off the entire sofa she has claimed, then sprawls out, determined to defend half the territory!
Jiang Qingqing curls her lips and lays her long, fair legs right across Jiang Ye.
Jiang Ye: “...”
Jiang Qingqing rubs salt in the wound, tracing a fingertip over his outstretched arm. “I've been walking for ages. My legs are tired.”
At the team base, the wealthy teammate who hears their captain has come back early suddenly gets a text from him.
Jiang Ye: You have to rent me that place for now!!!
Three exclamation marks make it clear how desperate their captain is.
But hasn't their captain always lived at the base?
Catching his teammate's reply in the corner of his eye, Jiang Ye looks away, releases the smooth skin beneath his palm, now faintly red from being pressed, and very much like an ex-boyfriend, pushes the other person's legs off him.
He clears his throat. “You can stay here whenever you want, but let me make one thing clear: this is where I usually live, so I'll be staying here too.”
“Ohhh.”
The drawn-out reply comes with an amused, appraising look. Jiang Ye blushes and heads into the kitchen.
Jiang Qingqing smiles to herself. So cute~
