My Ex-Husband Is Proposing Again

Su Hongxing had been waiting for these words from Ye Qilan.

“After work is my personal time, I have some private matters to deal with tonight, I can’t accompany you guys, have fun.”

She quickly grabbed her handbag which had been tidied up earlier and bolted out of the office at full speed.

Beichuan paused for a moment, quickly registering what was happening, and chased after her.

Su Hongxing’s foot was already in the elevator when Beichuan, at the last moment, pulled her back out.

“What are you doing, let go of me!” Su Hongxing could no longer maintain her composure.

If the situation continued to develop this way, she probably would become entangled with Beichuan.

“It’s more fun with more people. If you leave, who will accompany me?” Beichuan tightly held Su Hongxing’s hand, with one hand at her thick waist, pinching it.

When Ye Qilan came out, he saw Beichuan and Su Hongxing tugging at each other.

His eyes darkened, his lips tightly pressed together, he was very, very unhappy. There was a feeling of violation, as though something that was rightfully his was being tarnished by someone else.

Cao Shiyu observed Ye Qilan’s emotional change; she hooked onto Ye Qilan’s arm and coquettishly asked him, “Is Sister Hongxing more beautiful than me?”

Whenever Ye Qilan saw Su Hongxing, his mood would change.

At this moment, she had to admit that this woman, Su Hongxing, must be removed, otherwise, Ye Qilan wouldn’t devote his heart solely to her.

“Beichuan, let go of her!” Ye Qilan saw Beichuan’s hand roving around Su Hongxing’s waist, fire arising in his heart. He briskly separated Beichuan from Su Hongxing.

The force of his action nearly propelled Beichuan into the corner of the wall.

Beichuan looked at Ye Qilan in surprise, the corner of his lips curling up into a mischievous smile, “I didn’t do anything to Su Su, don’t rush.”

Deep down, he couldn’t help but feel shocked. Ye Si was known for his politeness and gentleness; such a rude gesture was so out of character for him.

Ye Qilan moved Su Hongxing to his side and asked softly, “Did he touch you anywhere inappropriate?”

Su Hongxing hesitated, recalling Beichuan touching her waist earlier. Of course, she couldn’t possibly tell the truth, so she shook her head and replied, “No, he was very respectful.”

“If he harasses you again in the future, just slap him.” Ye Qilan said, then taking Su Hongxing’s hand, he led the way into the elevator.

Only Beichuan and Cao Shiyu were left, looking at each other in astonishment.

The previously advantageous situation was now suddenly confusing and ambiguous.

Wasn’t Ye Qilan interested in Cao Shiyu? Why did he forget about Cao Shiyu as soon as he saw Su Hongxing?

A fire grew inside Cao Shiyu’s heart, feeling as if she had been trampled by an ugly woman, which to her was a loss of great honor.

Standing together in the elevator, Ye Qilan and Su Hongxing’s fingers were tightly interlaced. Su Hongxing tried a few times to pull away from Ye Qilan but was unsuccessful, and finally gave up.

The flames of jealousy roared inside Cao Shiyu, but on the outside, she showed no signs of dissatisfaction.

As they arrived at the Red House, Cao Shiyu’s gaze hardened upon seeing the sign for Hongxing Pavilion.

Beichuan voluntarily clarified her confusion, “This is Qilan’s exclusive room at the Red House. Let me tell you something, he has a special preference for apricot blossoms. Su Su’s win lies in her name. The reason why Qilan married her is largely related to her name.”

Some people are destined to be different from others when they are born, their starting point is higher than others.

So what if Su Hongxing was fat and ugly? People may find her name “Su Hongxing”, meaning “apricot in revival”, overwhelmingly vulgar, but in Ye Si’s heart, it held a grandeur.
