Chapter 2563: Chapter 2563: Surprises Abound in the Proposal (7)

"Why the long face? Even if I’m not Yu Xiuzhun, you’re not getting away!" Bai Zheng tightened his grip on her slender waist, dominantly lowered his head to nip Ye Mingmei’s earlobe, pulling her into his embrace.

She would rather have him facing her resentment than see her hesitant and afraid.

"I’m not sulking, I’m just a bit hungry..." Ye Mingmei finally mustered the courage to finish her sentence, only for her stomach to let out a loud growl.

Her face went red from embarrassment, not daring to meet Bai Zheng’s gaze.

Bai Zheng was equally taken aback; he hadn’t expected that after all his anger, she was merely hungry...

"I, um, forgot to eat breakfast when I went out this morning, and just now..." Ye Mingmei, embarrassed, struggled to finish, casting him a timid glance.

She had been hungry all day, forced to deal with his overbearing demeanor, her knees now weak.

"Idiot!"

Ye Mingmei waited for a while, only to receive those two words from Bai Zheng. Suddenly, she was swept off her feet, carried outside with large strides.

Stuffed into a car, still dazed, she asked, "Where are we going now?"

"To feed that little stomach of yours, otherwise I’m afraid you won’t have enough energy for me." Bai Zheng had one hand on the steering wheel, the other tightly clutching her small hand, fingers interlocked.

Her heart tightened as his handsome profile turned toward her, gazing affectionately as if his eyes could drown her.

Ye Mingmei’s palm tightened, fearfully averting her gaze, biting her lip without uttering a word.

Bai Zheng didn’t press her; he was the one who decided to conceal his identity at the start. Now, when she finally accepted him as Bai Zheng, he suddenly revealed he was Yu Xiuzhun. Anyone would struggle to adapt to such a rollercoaster of emotions.

He had to wait.

After their meal, Bai Zheng didn’t hurry to send her back to the Ye Family. Instead, under the cover of night, he took Ye Mingmei to a bustling street.

"Swoosh—"

The car smoothly parked by the roadside. Bai Zheng reached out to undo the seatbelt, his gaze set forward.

Ye Mingmei was initially slow to react until a group of young dancers appeared at the street corner in her line of vision.

Her eyes tightened, immediately recalling Yu Xiuzhun’s masterful dance skills from three years ago, even she had to admit inferiority!

On the dance floor, Yu Xiuzhun was like a radiant star, wherever he went, he was the center of attention, dazzling and unmatched!

Ye Mingmei clutched the seatbelt, watching Yu Xiuzhun push open the car door and get out, hesitating about whether to follow.

Ultimately, she stepped out of the car, followed him into the crowd, and watched him dance with abandon, a swagger reminiscent of the first time she saw him at a PUB three years ago.

Back then, she naively judged him a good person based solely on a dance, only to eventually provoke a devil.

These three years, she was alone with Meimei, stopping countless times at familiar dance steps on TV programs, hoping the dancer would turn so she could see the face that haunted her.

Unknowingly, Ye Mingmei followed her heart, moving beside him, placing her hand in his palm, letting him lead her into the dance floor.

They danced in seamless harmony, as if time had ceased.

Step, twist, spin... Every move was like a nostalgic film playing before her, Ye Mingmei gazed at the hand gripping hers tightly, eyes reddening.
