Three days later, the major media reported the news again.
The content of the report was that Ye You has now woken up after being rescued in the hospital.
Then some TV media conducted a telephone interview with him.

“Hello Ye You, I am the host Wu Bing, how are you doing now?” the host asked when looking at the camera.

“Hello, I regain consciousness last night, and I am better now, but the wound on my head is still a little painful.
The doctor said that as long as I recuperate, there won’t be too many problems.” Ye You replied in a weak voice.

“So in order not to disturb your rest, we will try to keep the story short, and only need you to focus on answering some questions that the audience is very concerned about.
First of all, the first question that the audience is most concerned about is that many people have guessed before that you have committed suicide.
I want to ask, is this true?”

“I am willing to accept the interview to clarify to everyone in person that I did not commit suicide, but because I was too stressed and tired, that I fell into a trance and accidentally fell from the stairs at home.
Let me explain to everyone again, in any case, my parents gave me my life and they also raised me.
No matter how painful my heart is, I will not choose to commit suicide.”

“Then what is the main reason for your pain?”

“Recently, there have been many false reports about me, saying that I am the third party who destroyed other people’s families and marriages.
Here I can swear to God that I have never destroyed anyone’s marriage.
Me and He Xu were engaged when we just reach adulthood, but because of the financial crisis in the He family’s company, and the Lu family requested that as long as He Xu and Lu Ning married, the Lu family is willing to help the He family get through this crisis.
Although I feel very painful in my heart, but I can understand the He family’s decision.
So I told He Xu many times, that I won’t get in touch or contact him again, but He Xu…” Ye You stopped suddenly, as if he couldn’t continue.

“Well,” the host said: “From the text messages that your parents published, we can see that you have indeed rejected He Xu many times, but He Xu keeps sending you text messages, begging you not to break up with him and promised to find a way to break up with Lu Ning, right?”

“Yes, originally I didn’t want to publish those text messages, considering our friendship and we have been growing up together, but my parents were really terrified this time.
They thought I could never wake up anymore and didn’t want me to keep being blame even till death, so the text messages were published, letting all the people to judge who is right and who is wrong.”

“We also saw from the text messages that were opened.
Before He Xu and Lu Ning got married, people from the Lu family kept threatening you to break up with He Xu, right?”

“Yes…….”

“Have you ever thought about filing a lawsuit to the Lu family for intimidation1Raw 恐吓(Kǒnghè); intimidate, to threaten, because those text messages are no longer just threats2Raw 威胁(Wēixié); threaten., but the degree of intimidation3Apparently, intimidating is more serious than threaten…..
for all my life, I thought threaten was more a serious case than intimidating Orz.”

“After this incident, when I was walking on the edge of life and death, I suddenly figured out a lot of things.
Evasion and patience can’t be exchanged for the peace that I want, it will only exchange for those evil people to even more presumptuous in bullying.
I will treat this as a rebirth.
From now on, I will face everything bravely and assume the responsibilities that I should bear.
With the belief that evil can not overcome righteousness, I will stand against the Lu family and the He family.
Also, to allow my new life bring new vitality to Ye family’s company.”

“Okay, thank you Ye You, take a good rest, and wish you a speedy recovery.”

“Thanks.”

After hanging up, Ye You put his phone aside and continued to draw the artwork.
Of course, he has to make a full set of acting.
He was still lying in the hospital and will stay for another two or three days before he can be discharged and go home.

With such a big incident this time, the business of the Lu family and the He family will definitely be affected, just like the previous Ye family’s brand clothing and jewelry sales plummeted.
However, the Lu family was not only in the clothing and jewelry business, even if it will be affected to a certain extent, it will not be as critical as the Ye family.

Ye You certainly didn’t think that just using this matter could completely defeated Lu Family and He Family.
This was just an opportunity to prove his innocence and formally declare war on the Lu Family and the He Family.

Ye You was going to give Ye family’s brand a complete change.
For the clothing and jewelry that were returned by merchants and customers before, Ye You asked Ye Long and his wife to destroy them.
In the future, their family will not sell these mid-end products, they will only sell premium and top quality products, but if they want to improved the brand level, they not only need to improved the design and quality.
Now with the help of Du Yao, Ye You’s heart was not only relieved a lot, but also more confident.

After Ye You was discharged from the hospital, Du Yao sent someone to pick him up for dinner.

Ye You thought that Du Yao would take him to a luxurious restaurant, but he was taken to a villa halfway up the mountain, and the so-called dinner was the fish soup that had not yet been cooked.

“The fish soup I personally cooked for you is good for healing the wound.” Du Yao stood in the kitchen and turned to looked at Ye You.

Ye You stood at the door of the kitchen, speechless for a long time before walking in.
He thought he had done enough for the acting, but he didn’t expect that there was another one here that was better than what he did.

“You know that my wound is fake, right?” Ye You said as he gently tapped the medical bandage on his head.

“Of course I know, but isn’t this acting? Let’s take it for real, and then I can take this opportunity to care about you and show you my cooking skills in passing, so I can grab your stomach.” Du Yao said while dealing with the fish.

Ye You looked at him as he(DY) was not very proficient in handling fish.
He really didn’t understand where his confidence came from, and felt that he could grab his(YY) stomach with his cooking skills.

Ye You grabbed one of his hands and helped him roll up the sleeves that was about to become wet.

Du Yao looked at Ye You’s proficient movements, as if he had done it many times.
He couldn’t help but squinted his eyes, feeling sour in his heart, but immediately covered it up and passed his other hand to Ye You.

The tacit movement of them both, made Ye You suddenly a little dazed, as if he had returned to his previous life.

Du Yao continued to process the fish, and then said: “The taste is not the most important thing, but the intention is, I hope you can ignore the taste as much as possible when drinking(the soup), and taste my intentions more seriously.”

After watching it for a while, Ye You couldn’t stand it anymore, so he pushed him away and said, “I’ll do it.
I am worried that it will be difficult for me to taste your intention from the taste that is  unacceptable for me.”

Ye You was an extremely picky eater.
Eating food that doesn’t suit his taste was just as uncomfortable as being punished.
If Du Yao makes a pot of inexplicable things, he will not drink a drop into his mouth even if he had to die.
So, it was still safest to do it himself.

When Du Yao saw Ye You’s skillful and neat movements, he knew that his cooking skills must be good, so he stood while holding his hands and looked at him.

Ye You’s side profile can also made Du Yao look for a long time, and became more and more fascinated.
He suddenly had a feeling of nostalgia.
Although he didn’t know why he felt nostalgia, there was one thing he was certain, that he has figured out his own intentions, he must hold this person firmly, and then continue to live such a life.

After the fish soup was cooked and served on the table, Du Yao first served Ye You a bowl, and then he served another bowl for himself.
After taking a sip, he immediately full of praises: “It’s amazing.
You don’t look like someone who knows how to cook, actually can make such a delicious fish soup.
After drinking this fish soup you made, I have the idea of dismissing all of my hotel chefs.”

“You don’t look like someone who knows how to cook…” Ye You said after taking a sip of fish soup, “And as expected, you can’t cook.”

“Actually, the fish soup I made can still be drunk.
Really, I have made it many times, but the taste is definitely incomparable with yours.”

Ye You glanced at him, thinking to himself, the things that  you think can be drink, I definitely can’t drink it.

Du Yao got up, walked to the wine cabinet behind the bar next to him, and took out a bottle of red wine and two wine glasses.

“A drink?” Du Yao asked after sitting down, looking at Ye You.

“Fish soup with red wine?” Ye You looked at him speechlessly and said, “Can this match be a little weirder?”

“If you don’t want to drink red wine, there are still many other wines.
You can drink whichever you want.” Du Yao said seriously.

“I don’t drink soup with wine.” Ye You said with a look that he saw through his thoughts: “Even if I drink alcohol, I won’t get drunk so easily.”

“Do you think I want to get you drunk?” Du Yao said with a smile.

“Do you think I can’t tell?” Ye You glared at him.

“Okay.” Du Yao put the wine aside and said, “Although I have never let others see my intentions, but if you mistakenly think that I have any intentions, I also don’t want to defend myself.
But I really  did often drink red wine with fish soup.
If you have a chance, you can try it later.
It’s actually pretty good.”

Ye You looked at Du Yao and suddenly felt a sense of guilt in his heart that he seemed to have really misunderstood him.
But immediately reminded himself that whether the person in front of him was Du Yao from the previous life or not, he must be a cunning and scheming person, and he should not take it lightly.

While talking, the two of them drank a pot of fish soup, and even ate all the fish.

Du Yao took Ye You to the living room on the second floor.
The entire glass wall of the living room on the second floor allowed him to see the mountain on the opposite side and the river under the mountain.

“What do you want to drink?” Du Yao asked, “Juice? Milk?”

“Bring up the bottle of red wine just now, I want to try how it tastes.” Ye You said, there was one thing he wanted to confirm, if he was sober, he may not have the courage to do it.

Du Yao turned his head to looked at Ye You, and was silent for a while without speaking.

“The bottle of red wine just now was good with fish soup.
If you just want to drink some red wine, I have better ones here.” Du Yao turned around to get it after he finished speaking.

Sitting on the sofa, Ye You watched the gradually darkening sky outside, he suddenly felt a sense of helpless fear and tension in his heart.
Although this Du Yao, in terms of physical appearance, personality and tone of voice, were extremely similar to Du Yao in the previous life, even the eyes that was looking at him were so similar.
But what if he was not? If he was not, what should he do?

Du Yao brought the wine and poured it for Ye You and himself.

Ye You wasn’t in the mood to taste it slowly, and drank half of the red wine in one breath, then handed the wine glass to Du Yao, asking him to pour it for himself again.

Du Yao felt Ye You’s sudden emotional change.
Although he didn’t know why, he still poured the wine for him silently.

Ye You drank one cup after another, and Du Yao grabbed his hand and said, “You were very defensive just now.
Now you look like you are going to get yourself drunk, did you suddenly let go of your defense and believe me in my character? Actually, I don’t even believe in my own character, so you should be on guard.”

“I don’t want to get myself drunk, I just want to feel a little tipsy, but…” Ye You blinked vigorously and said, “I seem to have overdrink and my eyes have started to see an overlapping images.”

“Didn’t you say your capacity for liquor are very good?” Du Yao took the wine glass in his hand and put it on the coffee table.

“I lied to you.
If I say this, you will, will not think about, getting me drunk.” Ye You’s brain became more and more confused, and his breathing became quicker.

“Indeed, I did not intend to get you drunk, but you got yourself drunk.” Du Yao said helplessly.

“But if I’m not a little drunk, I wouldn’t dare to do this kind of thing.” Ye You held Du Yao’s face, squinted his eyes and aimed for a while, then kissed him hard, but he still didn’t kissed on the right place, only kissed the corner of Du Yao’s mouth.

Du Yao hugged Ye You, had him(YY) leaning in his(DY) arms, then raised his chin and kissed his lips.
How can he not eat the soft tofu that has been delivered to his mouth?

Ye You raised his head and endured Du Yao’s deep kiss.
He thought, even the way of kissing habits are exactly the same, he must be Du Yao, he must be.

Du Yao looked down at Ye You who had fallen asleep leaning against his arms.
After being stunned for a moment, he held his face again and after kissing his face for a while, he picked him up and walked back to the room.

After Du Yao put Ye You on the bed, Ye You hummed softly, then with closed eyes, he said: “Du Yao, hold me, hold me.”

Du Yao lay down beside Ye You, then put him in his arms and embraced him.

Ye You found a familiar feeling, hugged Du Yao tightly, and kept calling his name.

Du Yao didn’t know if he was calling himself or calling the person he said was very similar to him, even have the same name, but he thought, the person who already in his arms, don’t think that anyone can tried to snatch him away.

Du Yao hugged Ye You and slept all night.

When Ye You woke up early the next morning, he had a headache while thinking of all the things that happened last night.
In fact, apart from kissing, there was nothing happened that will made him even more headache.

“Wake up?” Du Yao sat down on the side of the bed, looked at Ye You and asked, “It’s uncomfortable.”

“Headache…” Ye You frowned, and said with an uncomfortable look: “What wine did you give me? Why is the after-effect so strong.”

“It seems that what you said to me about your good capacity for liquor, is a lie.
And when you told me about you lied when you said that you can drink well, it’s the truth.” Du Yao said helplessly.

“Don’t talk about tongue twisters, my head hurts even more.” Ye You complained angrily.

Hearing the knock on the door, Du Yao got up, walked to the door and opened the door.
Taking the honey lemon tea from the hands of the helper, Du Yao went back to the bed and sat down, he said, “Drink this.
After you drink it, you should know be more comfortable.”

“What is it?” Ye You asked, looking at him with his eyes half-opened.

“Honey lemon tea.” Du Yao replied.

“I don’t want it!” Ye You turned around and said unhappily: “I want to drink a hangover soup that can make my head painless.”

“Drink this first, and I’ll let the kitchen cook it for you.” Du Yao picked Ye You up, let him lean in his arms, and fed him honey lemon tea.

Du Yao had never taken care of others, let alone coaxed anyone, but coaxing Ye You made him feel like he had done this kind of things countless time, very proficient and handy.

After Ye You drank the honey lemon tea, he told Du Yao how to cook the hangover soup, and then lay down on the bed.
He didn’t get up until Du Yao brought the hangover soup.

Although Ye You further confirmed that it was more likely that Du Yao in this life was Du Yao in the previous life, but he was still fortunate that Du Yao didn’t do anything to him after he drunk and fell asleep.
Because he still felt scared and worried, what should he do if this Du Yao was not his lover.

Ye You decided to maintain such a relationship with Du Yao temporarily, until the anxiety and fear in his heart disappeared before further deepen the relationship.

…………………………………………

Two months later, Ye You was preparing to go abroad to participate in a very important competition, not to participate in the show catwalk, but a truly high-end international fashion design competition.

In this era, people’s understanding of fashion and clothing design was generally not high.
Fashion and high-end custom clothing were only things that a small number of upper-class people will pay attention to.

However, Ye You felt that it was precisely this era when everything was going to develop rapidly, that was the best time to truly occupied the high-end market and established a high-end brand.

Although people generally don’t pay much attention to fashion, furthermore, they were not interested in and don’t understand the fashion competition.
However, like the Phoenix International Fashion Design Gold Award, event though most people have never paid attention to it, but they had heard of it.
In their subconsciousness, everyone felt that this was the highest honor in the international clothing industry, and in fact, this was indeed the case.

Not every designer can participated in the international competitions like this.
One must have a letter of recommendation written by someone with a certain status in the international fashion circle before they can sign up.

It was not difficult for Ye You to get a letter of recommendation.
Du Yao was there anyway, he can get the letter of recommendations as much as he wanted.
After passing the first and second rounds of review, Ye You took the company’s team and set off to participate in the official competition.

Designers who have not participated in the competition before, and designers who did not make it to the top 20 in the last competition, must participated in the first round of qualifiers.
The qualifiers only need to show two sets of representative costumes, and after pass the qualifiers, only then they can participated in the official finals.

In the rest lounge waiting for the start of the qualifiers, designers from all over the world was waiting very nervously.

Ye You was sitting on the sofa and texting Du Yao with his mobile phone.

“You actually come to participate in such a competition?”

After Ye You heard the sound, he immediately raised his head.
Lu Ning was standing in front of him and looking at him, his eyes were full of mockery and said: “Do you know how to design? You actually not embarrassed to participate in this top international fashion competition as a designer?”

“People like you who use the work of other designers in the company as their own design works are not embarrassed to participate in the competition, I am entirely relying on my own inspiration to design the clothes, why should I be embarrassed to participate in the competition?” Ye You said blankly.

“You really don’t know anything about the fashion design industry.” Lu Ning smiled sarcastically and said: “Top designers will have their own design teams.
It’s not the same thing as what you said about competing using other people’s designs.
“

“Have participated in so many Phoenix fashion design competitions, not even once get into the top 20 designers, and still not embarrassed to call himself a top designer?” Ye You also smiled mockingly.

“This is an international competition.
All the best designers in the world have come to participated.
In any case, I was in the top 30, and you, a designer who can’t pass the qualifiers, a designer who can not be rank, what qualifications do you have to laugh at me??”

“Pass or can’t pass, let’s wait until the results come out.” Ye You said, “It’s you, who still worked so hard while being pregnant, and came to participate in the competition in person.
It seems that your Lu family’s fashion company is in a pretty bad situation.
Only can hope to rely on this competition to get a good rank, and then vigorously publicize it like before, so as to restore some reputation, right?”

“Our Lu family is different from your Ye family.
Even if we don’t have a fashion company, our Lu family still has other businesses.
Moreover, our Lu family doesn’t lack funds, so it’s easy to turn over.” Lu Ning pretended to be relaxed.

“Really?” Ye You looked at him and said, “So, it seems that the last event did not have a big impact on your Lu family.
That is to say, the land that our family auctioned off, your family also can get it easily now, right?”

Lu Ning finally couldn’t hold back and changed his face.
Afterwards he learned that the land had been bought by the legendary Du family.
It was impossible for them to get the land from the Du family’s hand.
His grandfather also fell ill of anger because of this.
Then there was news that suspected Ye You committed suicide, which affected the businesses of their Lu family and He family to a certain extent.

“Oh, that’s right.” Ye You suddenly remembered something, and asked with a smile: “I forgot to ask you, how does it feel to be pointed at by a lot of people, and the overwhelming verbal abuse? It doesn’t make you have a fetal move4Raw 动了胎气(dòngle tāi qì); Fetal gas/fetal move.  It’s means experiencing a miscarriage-like symptom (e.g., abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding[]) caused by the physical condition of the expectant mother or by an external compromising factor (e.g., physical trauma, environmental toxin)., and hurt the kid in your stomach, right?”

As soon as he mentioned the child, Lu Ning’s eyes were immediately full of precautions.
He glared at Ye You and said, “Thank you for your concern, aren’t these thanks to your acting in such a good show? Don’t worry, me and He Xu’s child is extremely blessed.
God will surely bless him to come to this world safe and sound.
And everything you have done, I will double it back to you sooner or later.”

After looking at the time, Ye You stood up and said, “Okay, then you must give birth to the child well.
I am waiting for you to make a big move.”

Lu Ning glared at Ye You again, then turned and left.

Lu Ning always thought that Ye You wanted to do something to the child in his stomach, but in fact, Ye You hoped that the child in his stomach could be born smoothly than the Lu family and the He family.
At that time, he will definitely find a way to make Lu Ning give birth to a mixed-race child and make it public.
He couldn’t wait to appreciate, the ugly faces of the He family and the Lu family.
