Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Chen Qiuqiu’s expression was very ugly. Then, she turned around and pretended not to see Ye Yao and that the wager didn’t happen. There was no way shed kneel down before Ye Yao!

When Ye Yao saw that Chen Qiuqiu was obviously not going to keep her end of the bargain, she snorted. “Kneel!”

Chen Qiuqiu was in a great confusion. She couldn’t understand why a cold and aloof person like Huo Buyu would give Ye Yao an autograph and let her hug him. That was impossible! There must be something wrong with her eyes! How could Ye Yao have seduced Huo Buyu?! The more Chen Qiuqiu thought about it, the more frustrated she became. She couldn’t even focus on walking. Then, she accidentally twisted her high heels and staggered forward. She fell to her knees and bent her upper body forward in a kowtow position.

Ye Yao clicked her tongue. She had only asked Chen Qiuqiu to kneel, but the girl knelt down and kowtowed. Moreover, after she got up, she fell to her knees again. Such a miserable chain reaction proved that she was by no means a good person. Therefore, Ye Yao did not feel any psychological burden jinxing Chen Qiuqiu.

Huo Buyu looked in Ye Yao’s direction and saw Chen Qiuqiu kneeling. He said coldly, “Did you lay a curse on her?”

“I didn’t.” Ye Yao spread her hands. “We had a wager. She said that if I could talk to you and hug you, she’d kneel down before me. She agreed to it herself.”

Huo Buyu finally understood. Then he asked, “Who is she?”

“Xiang Jingtian’s ex-girlfriend,” Ye Yao answered.

Gao Qiao was shocked. “You know Xiang Jingtian’s ex-girlfriend?”

“How would that be possible!” Ye Yao rolled her eyes. “When I went to the washroom just then, I saw her pestering Xiang Jingtian. Only then I figured that she was Xiang Jingtian’s ex-girlfriend who cheated on him for money.

Xiang Jingtian is too honest. She was pestering him and he didn’t know how to reject her, so I helped him. It was mainly because Xiang Jingtian helped me at the school gate today that I returned his favor. Then, his ex-girlfriend didn’t like me and made sarcastic remarks, so I taught her a lesson.”

What kind of lesson was that? It was just a hex! Gao Qiao thought to himself.

However, he wasn’t brave enough to voice it aloud. He did not dare to provoke Ye Yao for fear of being jinxed.

Huo Buyu knew too, that Xiang Jingtian had indeed helped Ye Yao at the school gate today. He felt that Ye Yao had done the right thing in returning the favor, hence he wouldn’t say she was being nosy.

It was almost time for the ball, and everyone started dancing. Ye Yao extended her hand towards Huo Buyu, who naturally took it. Then, the two of them got onto the dance floor. As for Gao Qiao, he stood beside the two of them and applauded. It looked rather retarded.

In Gao Qiao’s opinion, as long as Ye Yao was around, he had to protect her, unless she went to the toilet! Moreover, as soon as Ye Yao left, he would stand by Huo Buyu’s side, because no matter where Ye Yao went, she would eventually return to Huo Buyu i s side!

It wasn’t too obvious that Ye Yao was Huo Buyu’s girlfriend, so no one could tell. However, anyone with eyes could tell that Gao Qiao was fanatical about Ye Yao! Therefore, even though Ye Yao and Huo Buyu were dancing on the dance floor, people didn’t perceive that they were a couple! At best, they thought Huo Buyu was dancing with Ye Yao to help Gao Qiao woo her.

Gao Qiao twirled around Ye Yao and Huo Buyu, then looked at Ye Yao with sparkling eyes. “Ye Yao, you dance quite well. You don’t look like a child from an ordinary family.”

Ye Yao rolled her eyes. “My grandfather raised me very strictly. I started learning to draw, dance, and play the piano when I was very young. Moreover, I used to be considered a wealthy young lady in S City. It’s equivalent to your family’s position in the capital. My family is not that bad, okay?” This person simply didn’t know the right things to say at all! If Huo Buyu weren’t beside her, she would have jinxed him!

Huo Buyu held Ye Yao’s hand and wrapped his arm around her waist. He never knew before this that Ye Yao was such a good dancer. No matter his pace, she could easily keep up with him. This was the upbringing ingrained in her.

Huo Buyu was very satisfied.

Of course, it was not surprising that Gao Qiao was shocked. After all, Ye Yao was a lively person, causing trouble and jinxing people wherever she went. As a result, in the eyes of Huo Buyu and Gao Qiao, she was simply a naughty child who only knew to cause trouble and jinx people. They didn’t associate her with elegance at all. Now that Ye Yao suddenly behaved elegantly, they were not used to it..
