Empty Promises: The Ceo Cunning Bride - Chapter 183

The crowds’ quiet murmuring got louder and louder. All eyes were on the three people in the spotlight.

“Who is she?”

“My beloved fiance. I missed you a lot.” Xiong Jingfei shyly looked away and buried her face in Yang Zheyan’s neck.

Her fingers pressed into the back of Yang Zheyan’s neck, and he felt her breath tickling his neck. Then she whispered, “There isn’t a second that passes by that I don’t think of you. I can never forget about you even if I wanted to.”

“Did she just say she’s Yang Zheyan’s fiancee?”

“I never heard that he had a fiancee! Did I miss the announcement?”

Yin Yuan watched from the sideline. He hoped Xiong Jingfei had a thought out plan for embarrassing Wen Yingyue in front of a large crowd. Though he was sure she did or else she wouldn’t publicly dare go against the pampered Wen princess.

“Yang Zheyan and Wen Yingyue grew up together. Wouldn’t it make more sense for them to be engaged? Aren’t they childhood sweethearts?”

“There was that rumor that Yang Zheyan and Wen Yingyue are engaged!”

“Ahhh! That rumor happened right before Wen Yingyue went abroad.”

“That woman must be lying! Trying to be a third party!”

The woman they’re claiming to be a third party was Xiong Jingfei. The person’s comment also caught Xiong Jingfei’s attention. She unhid her face and slightly tilted her head to the side. She ran her fingers up Yang Zheyan’s firm chest.

“Am I lying, darling~? We are still engaged, right?”

Xiong Jingfei eyed Wen Yingyue from the corner of her eyes while saying those words. It was as she predicted, Wen Yingyue was trying to keep her composure, but her snowy complexion gave her away. Her face was turning red with rage while her hands clenched onto the stair rails.

Yang Zheyan’s eyebrows knitted together, not sure what Xiong Jingfei is thinking and planning.

When he made his appearance, there were many eyes on him, but one pair of eyes caught his attention. That same pair of eyes belonged to the woman he has been searching for the past few days. She saw and noticed him when he walked into the party, but she didn’t show herself until now.

What is she planning to do? His lips turned into a smile. Fine, he will play along with her.

Yang Zheyan placed a hand behind her back, but he didn’t stop there. His fingers glided up her backless black dress while his other hand pinched her chin. His hand on her chin did the lightest jerk, and Xiong Jingfei’s eyes fell on his face.

“It will be faster to show them whether it’s a lie or not?” Yang Zheyan displayed his signature smile. Since you want to use me, then only look at me. Do not look at anyone else!

Xiong Jingfei felt chills hitting her in the areas he touched. His fingers were cold, but his voice was warm as always, yet it was also different. It was as if it was inviting her to commit a sin with him.

Her pouty ruby lips instantly turned into a smile. Yang Zheyan hasn’t lost his touch to adapt to all situations thrown at him.

She brought her lips closer to his as she said, “I would love that more than anything.”

“Ahem!” Lu Weisheng loudly cleared his throat as his cheeks were burning behind his mask. “P-please restrain yourself.”

Yang Zheyan and Xiong Jingfei stopped their activity, but that didn’t break them apart from their position. One looked at Lu Weisheng right away, and the other one took his time to look. Two people looked at him but had different expressions.

One was showing he wanted to kill Lu Weisheng for interrupting them. While the other one just gave him a look to hurry up with what he had to say. They were in the middle of doing something, but Lu Weisheng had to be the third party butting in.

“What is going on?” Lu Weisheng asked, looking at the couple, who were inches apart from completing their transaction.

“You interrupted us before I got a chance to show you what is going on?” Xiong Jingfei innocently said, placing a hand on Yang Zheyan’s shoulders. “Have you been well for the past few days, Lu Weisheng?”

Been well… No! Lu Weisheng wanted to blurt out his complaints to the person that caused it. His leisure time should have been with other women, but it got used for searching for her. He hunted high and low for her, and it had to be with the devil Yang Zheyan.

It may have been a few days for Xiong Jingfei, but to Lu Weisheng, it felt like months. He was thrilled when they finally got a clue from Wu Yuan. He never saw Yang Zheyan pick up an invitation as fast as he did that day.

“Y-you… Sister Jingfei, you can talk?” Wen Yingyue, the third person in the spotlight, finally spoke. She took those three flights of steps on her own without an escort. “H-how?”

Xiong Jingfei saw her open opportunity to get away from Yang Zheyan. She pulled away and gave him an unnoticeable push, so he’ll be a step away from her. The person she was aiming for tonight is standing on the same level as her.

“Would you believe me if I tell you God moves in mysterious ways?” Xiong Jingfei played with her nails that matched the color of her lips. She blew on them like she just finished painting them. “Since I answered you. Now, it’s your turn. Can you explain why you’re asking someone else’s fiance to accompany you?”

Wen Yingyue frowned at Xiong Jingfei’s answer but quickly dispelled it with her charming smile. “Sister Jingfei, I didn’t see you with brother Zheyan, so I thought-”

“You thought it was okay because you didn’t see me with my darling?” Xiong Jingfei nodded her head as if she was trying to understand Wen Yingyue’s reasons. “Miss Wen, when you do GET engaged. I’ll be looking forward to having a dance with your fiance too.”

“No.” Yang Zheyan grabbed Xiong Jingfei by the wrist and spun her back into his embrace. “Where do you think you’re going? We’re not finished yet.”

To others, they were thinking he was talking about the kiss that did not happen. However, Xiong Jingfei knows he was referring to the day she went crazy on him.

“Darling~, I was still talking to Miss Wen.” Xiong Jingfei smiled, but her eyes were telling him to let go.

Yang Zheyan lowered his voice, “I’m not sure if I should feel happy that you need me or hurt that you’re tossing me out after using me?”

“You can feel both for all I care.” Xiong Jingfei hissed at him behind her lovely smile.

To onlookers, they looked like a lovey-dovey couple whispering sweet nothing to each other.

“Hmph.” Yang Zheyan grazed her lips with his thumb. “Why don’t we finish what we couldn’t earlier?”
