Fated to My Enemy

"Didn't you smell my unique scent when you were lying on the bed just now?"

Yan Ye hadn't let the servants arrange for Lian Xinying to stay in his room.

It must have been something Jian Wanrong had said to the servants.

"Oh, I did smell it. I was wondering why there was such a stench, it almost killed me!" Lian Xinying said while patting her clothes with her little hands.

This set of movements made Yan Ye raise an eyebrow in annoyance.

He took a few steps towards her and said sarcastically, "Little thing, you can continue to play the lady if you like, but remember, it's just a word from him."

His husky voice served as a reminder.

She was now so destitute that she no longer had the capital to be willful.

The light in her eyes suddenly dimmed.

Seeing her retract her spines and sniffling like a pitiful creature, Yan Ye's heart felt an inexplicable irritation.

"Your stepmother has gone abroad for a vacation, and she left you in my care before she left. I'm now ordering you to go downstairs for dinner. If you don't comply, you'll face family discipline."

Family discipline!

"Do you know whose territory you're in now?"

"If you don't go downstairs to eat right now, what's to stop me from enforcing family discipline!"

...

Tap tap tap... The sound of small feet on the stairs was so pleasing.

Eating dinner in a gloomy mood, after dinner, it was almost nine o'clock, Lian Xinying walked towards the door.

She wanted some fresh air outside.

Her father was gone, her stepmother had left, and now, only she was left alone... with a threatening tyrant.

Speaking of this person, Lian Xinying ground her teeth.

She had never met such an inhuman bastard.

He's so much older than her, why doesn't he have any tolerance for a child?

Whimper...

Lian Xinying dejectedly made her way to the swimming pool and lay down on Yan Ye's personal lounge chair.

Although it was a bit hot outside, at least there was freedom, and she didn't have to face that ferocious-looking face.

She hadn't been lying on the lounge chair for long before her heart broke.

It was summer, and the villa was surrounded by flowers, plants, trees, and flowing water, with a low plot ratio. There were almost no other houses visible outside, solitary and private, highlighting his noble status. At the same time, these damn mosquitoes! They were everywhere!

It felt like a night deep in the mountains and forests, and in no time, Lian Xinying was bitten to the point of tears.

"Who let you dress so lightly and feed the mosquitoes outside!" A cold and deep voice suddenly floated from behind her, "Who gave you permission to lie on my chair?" His face was as stern as an ice sculpture.

This little thing had no sense of her dependency.

"Your damn house! Why are there so many mosquitoes! I'm about to be carried away by them!"

The limbs of Lian Xinying that were exposed outside were now full of bites.

She was unbearably itchy.

Just as she was about to get out of the chair after her complaint... tragedy struck.

With a 'plop,' the lounge chair and the person on it were kicked into the swimming pool by someone with a dark face.

"Foolish girl! There are no mosquitoes in water, just stay there until you apologize to me for my 'broken house'!" His cruel voice came word by word to Lian Xinying, who was struggling in the water.

After she steadied herself in the water, she saw his indifferent and dashing silhouette.

He went inside.
