Su Hongxing suppressed the confusion in her heart and replied in a calm tone, “It was just a dream, there’s no need to take it seriously.”
“Xingxing, listen to me, you have to be careful of Beichuan. This man has no bounds or bottom lines. If he sets his sights on you, he’ll stop at nothing to get you…”
“Xiao Ji, you’re overthinking it. He likes beautiful women, and I’m not beautiful. I have this under control. That’s it.” With that, Su Hongxing hung up the call.
She stood at the entrance of the corridor, lost in her thoughts for a while. As she turned around, she saw Ye Qilan standing silently behind her.
It was unknown how long he had been standing there, and how much he had heard.
The gloom on his face made her feel a bit wary of him.
As she pondered how to break the silence, not knowing what Ye Qilan was upset about, he swiftly changed his expression to a gentle one.
He stepped forward, took her hand and said, “You are my private secretary, you need to stick with me 24 hours a day.”
Su Hongxing gazed distractedly at his gentle and handsome face, thinking of Beichuan, then of Xiao Ji.
All the dreams she had ever had since childhood involved Ye Qilan. Then Beichuan appeared in her spring dream, and now even Xiao Ji had dreamed the same scene.
Could it be that she and these three men had deep connections in their past lives, or perhaps, are Beichuan and Xiao Ji also reborn?
“What did Xiao Ji say to you that has left you so distracted?” Seeing Su
Hongxing lost in thoughts, Ye Qilan asked softly.
He gazed intently at her side profile.
Just , her eyelashes were long and curled, and her nose was quite delicate. If she wasn’t so overweight, her face would probably be pretty.
He even imagined what her face would look like if she lost weight, and her so-called childhood sweetheart must have seen her at her most beautiful and purest…
Su Hongxing refocused and looked up at Ye Qilan, meeting his deep gaze. “Have you never dreamed since you were a child?”
She knew Ye Qilan was an odd man, but surely there was no one in the world who never dreamed?
“No,” Ye Qilan replied calmly.
“Not even once?” Su Hongxing asked persistently.
“Not even once.” What Ye Qilan didn’t say was that after he fell asleep, any dreams he might have were all pure white.
Sheng Yalun had said, that wasn’t a dream.
Su Hongxing stared blankly at Ye Qilan’s face. This man who had shown no emotions for years, and even after living for over twenty years, hadn’t had a single dream, was indeed very unusual.
Why were all her dreams from childhood about him, and yet, he had never dreamed about her once?
“Do you think I am pitiable?” Ye Qilan leaned affectionately towards her, “If you think I’m pitiable, you need to love me more. I lack love.”
Su Hongxing did not reply. This man was not lacking in women’s love, hers wouldn’t make a difference.
Just then someone rushed over, pulling Ye Qilan away from her. It was none other than Cao Shiyu.
“Fourth Brother, so you came over here. What were you discussing with Secretary Su that required you to hide here to talk?” The corner of Cao Shiyu’s eye glanced at Su Hongxing.
Noticing Cao Shiyu’s gaze, Su Hongxing decided to exit gracefully, “Mr. Ye, I shall get back to work, you two can continue your chat.”
Ye Qilan’s eyes lingered on Cao Shiyu’s smiling face. He couldn’t help but murmur to Cao Shiyu, “Your smile is really beautiful.”
“More beautiful than Secretary Su’s?!” Cao Shiyu asked loudly, on purpose for Su Hongxing, who hadn’t gone far, to hear..
