Ye Xunzhi summed it up inwardly.
[A nice voice + a perfect body + an elegant bearing did not equal a handsome man.]
[As much as I hate to admit it, people really can be that shallow. You still have to look at the face. Rejecting him in person would really hurt his feelings, wouldn't it? So she felt guilty and ran away.]
When Merlot had first told her about this, Ye Xunzhi hadn't taken it seriously.
"Little Ye, listen to me. If you've got nothing to do in the future, never go casually flirting with innocent young boys."
Ye Xunzhi had treated it as gossip at the time and blurted out, "What, did you get into trouble before? He couldn't satisfy you?"
"How should I put it? I'd say I'm pretty exciting."
The woman had held a cigarette between her fingers, looking deeply melancholy and very much like someone who had learned her lesson:
"But the problem was, I was too exciting."
So exciting that after she ran away, he blew up the entire Opera House along with the surrounding area.
From her predecessor's history of blood and tears, one lesson could be drawn-
Always check his face before finding yourself a man!
[Still, there's no need to worry too much. Merlot's team should be coming to rescue her soon. It's just that Perlos came back and discovered she'd escaped before she'd gotten very far.]
[He's obsessive, and in his despair and grief, he blew the entire Opera House sky-high. If the boss lady's team hadn't run fast enough, the whole team probably would have died.]
Ye Lan didn't care when Merlot's team would come to rescue her. All he knew was that this place was about to blow up.
The gossip was over, and the gathering had ended.
