Chapter 1098: He Was Angry (7)
“It hurts…” she said softly in protest.
Ye Sijue didn’t reply to her. He was waiting for her to look up at him before he would ease up on the grip.
This was the first time that Annie felt this side of him and was quite helpless. She finally looked up in resignation, sounding defiant as she said to him, “Ye Sijue, can you be gentler? You’re gripping me too tightly. It hurts.”
Ye Sijue’s gaze was deeper than usual as he stared at her. He said in his low voice, “It hurts? Have you ever thought about how I feel?”
She didn’t expect him to say this.
“I…” She hesitated. She wanted to explain, but she didn’t know what to say.
What should she say?
Should she have told him that her fiancé came to pick her up, so she had to go home?
She knew that if she had told him that, he would never have let her go.
But she had to go.
Annie looked down. “I’m sorry, I had to go home at that time, so… I didn’t have the time to say goodbye to you.”
Ye Sijue had a scornful smile, and he sounded as though he were interrogating her as he asked, “You had to go home? Go home and do what? Get engaged?”
Annie paused for a moment and shook her head.
She wanted to say that it was because Chris’s grandmother was not in good health so she had to go back.
But she didn’t know what he would think about it.
Although it was Chris’s grandmother, because his grandmother who watched over them as she and Chris grew up, she was quite close with his grandmother.
The dance music ended very quickly.
For the first time, Annie felt as though she were about to suffocate being around Ye Sijue. The way he looked at her was too pressurizing, as if it were going to strangle her.
So when the song ended, she felt like leaving.
But Ye Sijue wasn’t done talking.
Annie frowned, twisting her wrist as she said, “Ye Sijue, let me go.”
“I’m not letting go,” Ye Sijue said, looking stern.
Just then, someone came over with large strides, and in a skillful manner, tried to take Annie away from Ye Sijue.
Ye Sijue’s gaze became severe as his eyes met with Chris’s eyes and their hands exchanged quick strokes.
Finally, each of them was grabbing onto one of Annie’s hands.
Chris smiled faintly, looked at Annie in a calm and composed manner as he said, “Annie, come over here to me.”
Ye Sijue’s eyes narrowed, and he said in a low voice, “Xiaomeng, come over here to me.”
His eyes seemed to be begging for her to come back to him.
Annie’s heart stirred. She watched the two in a dilemma. Suddenly, she seemed like a lost little lamb.
“You guys… Can you let me go first?”
Feeling the glares from other people, she felt embarrassed.
Chris shot Ye Sijue a look.
The two released her at the same time.
Ye Sijue looked at Annie with a scorching gaze as he said again, “Come here to me. We aren’t done talking.”
On the other hand, Chris was very calm, smiling as he said, “Annie, it’s late
We should go. Grandma is still waiting for us.”
