Ye Qilan’s next words quickened Su Hongxing’s heartbeat.
She knew it, she knew it wasn’t her overthinking. Even if Ye Qilan divorced her, he never intended to let her go.
If that’s the case, what’s the difference between her divorcing him and not divorcing him? She would merely be changing from Ye Qilan’s wife to his kept mistress.
Ye Qilan’s refusal to give her alimony probably indicated his knowledge of her plans to leave, and his intention to trap her under his wings.
If so, how could she possibly get out of his sphere of influence?
Not only Su Hongxing understood Ye Qilan’s intentions, but Bai Chen, Xiaole, and the two lawyers present also did.
Everyone was surprised that Ye Qilan was thinking about keeping Su Hongxing as his mistress after the divorce before he had even divorced her. Wasn’t this too bizarre?
What woman would willingly give up the position of a legitimate wife to become a nameless, secret mistress?
Everyone’s gaze lingered on Su Hongxing’s face, curious about her reaction.
Everyone thought that Su Hongxing would explode in anger, but to everyone’s surprise, Su Hongxing kept her composure and after a moment of silence, said: “I don’t have many merits, but when it comes to what’s rightfully mine, I insist. Besides, I am capable of supporting myself. I don’t need to be supported by my ex-husband.As for this villa…”
She looked up, narrowing her eyes slightly: “I am used to living in a small house. I have never been comfortable in a big one . Perhaps I am not destined for riches.”
After saying these words, she turned to Ye Qilan: “Mr. Ye, please reconsider. I only ask for one million, which is not a lot. If you agree to my terms, I will swiftly set you free so that you can be free for Miss Cao.”
Once she finished speaking, she stood up and went upstairs.
Just then, she made a decision. If her life was playing out the same as it did in her past life, then she would follow the same narrative as before.
She went to her room and called Beichuan.
When Beichuan received Su Hongxing’s call, he was taken by surprise: “Is this you, Su Su?”
He was astonished and delighted that Su Hongxing was calling him; he thought the sky was falling.
“It’s me. I’m getting a divorce from Ye Qilan and want to move out of the villa. Can you pick me up later?” Su Hongxing revealed the purpose of the call.
She felt no remorse about using Beichuan to restrain Ye Qilan.
Both men had toyed with her like a plaything, so why couldn’t she fight back?!
As long as they had a shred of interest in her, she had the leverage to counter them.
“Su Su, I was right, wasn’t I? Qilan isn’t reliable at all. In your past life, he took you for granted and abandoned you. And now, history is repeating itself. Do you believe me now?” Beichuan excitedly said.
Su Hongxing replied with a cold smile on her lips: “Yes, I believe you. Come pick me up, please. Just now, Ye Qilan said that even if he divorced me, he still wants me to be his mistress… ”
“How dare he do that to you?! Wait for me! I am driving over there right now, I will be there within half an hour!” Beichuan was instantly furious upon hearing this.
Su Hongxing achieved her purpose and softened her tone: “There’s no need to rush, drive carefully.”
Suddenly, Beichuan thought that Su Hongxing’s voice sounded very pleasant, soft and sweet. If she were with him, would she be gentle…
While Beichuan was fantasizing, Su Hongxing on the other end had already ruthlessly hung up the phone.
