Pure Love Imprisoned: My Ex-Boyfriend, Who Blamed Me, Imprisoned Me in Love

He Duoye pushed the jewelry box in front of Lin Mian, opened it, and inside were a necklace and bracelet made of emeralds.

A very simple design: a delicate platinum chain with a square emerald pendant, and a bracelet made of round emeralds strung together. It's not complicated or flashy, but the gemstones are bright enough, their inherent brilliance and fire enough to make it dazzling.

He Duoye bent down and put the necklace on her. The green gemstone landed perfectly in the middle of her slender collarbone. Her skin was fair and delicate, and the gemstone was bright and deep green.

Next up is the bracelet.

Lin Mian raised her hand and watched as He Duoye lowered his head and carefully fastened the bracelet clasp.

His hair was a mess from her touching, and the way he looked at her with his eyes downcast and attentive to her reminded Lin Mian of their past.

He Duoye had given her a bracelet.

When you're young and in love, you always receive these kinds of romantic gifts. Lin Mian always finds necklaces troublesome; if she forgets to take them off one night before bed, the pendant will be hanging on her back when she wakes up the next day.

So He Duoye gave her many bracelets, and that's how he put them on her back then.

Lin Mian moved her fingers, trying her best to suppress all the emotions that surfaced from her memories.

"Alright." He Duoye put on the bracelet. "Your turn."

"What? It's your turn. Are you going to wear one too?" Lin Mian glanced at He Duoye's ears. Could it be an earring?

He Duoye said, "Hair."

"Do it yourself." Lin Mian looked down at the new bracelet she was wearing. "I don't want to serve you."

You have to clean up the mess you made.

"Okay." He Duoye nodded, stood up, and said, "Then let's do it this way."

He pulled Lin Mian up and led her outside.

Lin Mianren was a little confused: "Are you just going out like this? Aren't we going to a birthday party later?"

"Yeah." He Duoye put his arm around Lin Mian's shoulder, his tone lazy. "When we got to the banquet, I was just waiting for people to ask me what happened to my hair, and then I told them that my wife had pulled it."

Lin Mian: "..."

Who's your wife?!

He Duoye was actually going to open the door, so Lin Mian quickly pulled him back.

To avoid feeling embarrassed, Lin Mianrang still chose to comb his hair.

He Duoye sat on the stool where Lin Mian had sat. The shelf next to him was filled with various cosmetics. He reached out and rummaged through it, finding a jar of hairspray.

Lin Mian had styled He Duoye's hair before, purely out of curiosity and boredom, or perhaps because she had watched too many idol dramas and always thought it would be very romantic.

It's like a bathroom shave with a filter on.

In practice, my awful boyfriend would only say, "It felt like a puppy licking my head."

After saying that, he wiped some excess gel from his hair and smeared it on Lin Mian's arm: "Doesn't it look like your saliva?"

Lin Mian was so angry that she grabbed two topknots and gave him a good beating.

She even took photos from that time. He Duoye, with his cold and hard features, was such a perfect match for Chaotianjiu. Lin Mian would bring them out to mock him every night.

Unfortunately, that phone was lost later, and the photos disappeared as well.

Now, looking at He Duoye's spiky hair, Lin Mian really wanted to ask: Aren't you afraid I'll make you lick your head like a dog?

But when the words were on the tip of her tongue, she didn't want to say them.

What's the point of bringing up the past? Her ex-boyfriend is still stubborn and a jerk. Bringing up the past will only increase the risk of Lin Mian developing nodules.

She combed He Duoye's hair, paused for a moment, and then spoke: "He Duoye."

"Are you really going to take me home?"

He Duoye paused, then slowly looked up at Lin Mian through the mirror: "Don't you believe me?"

Lin Mian didn't answer; she believed that He Duoye would keep his word.

"Never mind," Lin Mian said. "Just pretend I didn't ask."

Uncle Mei's wife's family is a very famous local wealthy family, and their private estate is built on the mountainside of the famous Foshan.

Unlike He Duoye's manor, Uncle Mei's manor has a more local style. His villa is only two stories high, but it uses a lot of wood in its exterior decoration and interior decoration, making it very distinctive.

The house is surrounded by beautiful tropical plants, and there is a swimming pool at the entrance. The banquet venue is on the lawn next to the pool.

When Lin Mian went there, she saw peacocks strolling in the woods, with long, clean, and fluffy tails, much more beautiful than the peacocks in the zoo.

She couldn't help but turn around and take a few more glances.

Li Mingshao was also on the list of VIPs attending the banquet.

The three of them arrived together, and it was already quite late. A large number of people had gathered on the grassland, and as soon as He Duo the Wild Man arrived, countless eyes immediately turned to him.

Curiosity, apprehension, disgust, fear, and even mockery...

He paid no attention to the attention of these people and simply led Lin Mian inside, while Li Mingshao would stop from time to time to exchange pleasantries with others.

He Duoye led Lin Mian directly into the villa. The people with real status at this banquet were all inside.

Lin Mian saw far more people that day than the night before, faces with all sorts of expressions, and countless eyes secretly observing her... At first, she was nervous and uncomfortable, but as time went by, she gradually became numb and indifferent.

She focused all her attention on the food on the table.

The dishes were mostly local specialties, which tasted quite novel. However, one of the dishes was both sour and salty, and Lin Mian didn't notice and stuffed a big mouthful into her mouth, almost spitting it out.

Fortunately, a glass of water appeared in her field of vision at that moment. She took a sip and suppressed the sour and salty taste.

Lin Mian was drinking water when she looked up and met Wen Ya's gaze.

She gave Lin Mian a sweet and gentle smile.

Lin Mian smiled back and quickly glanced at the young man next to Wen Ya, her fiancé Toka.

As He Duoye just mentioned, Toka is not tall, but he is very handsome, especially his eyebrows and eyes. He is sunny and dashing, but he doesn't look very well.

After the meal, He Duoye had Lin Mian taken back, as if today was really just a chance for Lin Mian to make an appearance.

After leaving Uncle Mei's manor and getting into the car, Lin Mian discovered that there was someone else inside—it was Mei Zhu.

She smiled and said, "I'll take you back."

Lin Mian got into the car. Although her relationship with Mei Zhu was awkward and they weren't very close, she felt a little relaxed after meeting a bunch of strange strangers.

Back at the manor, entering her bedroom, Lin Mian kicked off her high heels and pounced on the sofa.

She took out her phone and was playing with it when a friend request suddenly popped up.

Upon opening the application, the note read: "I am Wenya."

Lin Mian: "..."

At the same time, Li Mingshao sent a message: "Wen Ya wants to add you, and I can't refuse, so I have to give her your business card. Just say something casual to get rid of her."

Lin Mian accepted the friend request.

Wenya's message came quickly: "There were so many people at the banquet tonight, I didn't get a chance to chat with you, what a pity."

"I'm getting married in a few days, you'll be there, right? I hope we can become good friends then."

Lin Mian: "..."

She was a little curious about Wenya, but didn't want to be friends with her, always feeling that Wenya was rather dangerous.

Lin Mian replied with a laughing emoji.
