Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Yan Zi’s face turned pale with terror, thinking she was surely doomed this time.
She had always heard that Ye Qilan was ruthless, but she never took it to heart. In her perception, Ye Qilan had always been a gentleman. At some point, she even thought that there might not be a more gentle, more considerate man in this world than Ye Qilan.
How would she have guessed, Ye Qilan’s ruthlessness would one day be targeted at her. The relationship they had built since childhood was not even comparable to the one he just registered with that ugly woman.
With blurry eyes filled with tears, she looked at Ye Qilan and choked out, “Brother Qilan, do you really like Su Hongxing that much?!”
Ye Qilan focused on Yan Zi for a while, then casually pulled a man’s sleeve to wipe her tears and snot.
“So dirty.” His movement was gentle, but his tone somewhat harsh.
Yan Zi looked at Ye Qilan in surprise, thinking that Ye Qilan was going to let her go.
“Yan Zi, you’ve always liked to follow me since we were children. I watched you grow up, of course, I don’t want your life.” Ye Qilan paused, then added, “But people are inherently wretched creatures, they never learn unless they hurt once.”
Yan Zi’s smile faded quickly. Upon hearing Ye Qilan say “but”, she knew there was more to come.
Ye Qilan glanced at the two men who were holding Yan Zi, and lightly smiled: “You guys keep her company here for 24 hours, remember, she’s timid, don’t scare her to death.”
“Yes, Mr. Ye!” The two men answered in unison.
Ye Qilan checked his watch: “I’m leaving now, the rest is up to you.”
Upon seeing Ye Qilan leaving, Yan Zi shouted at his back: “Ye Qilan, you can’t just leave , stop…”
But Ye Qilan walked away without looking back, quickly disappearing from her sight.
Yan Zi gritted her teeth in hatred.
Ye Qilan knew she was acrophobic, yet he had her stay here for 24 hours, she feared she might die of fright rather than falling.
This kind of psychological torment was far more terrifying than being stabbed.
Ye Qilan, you have such a ruthless heart!
Ye Qilan drove back to the old Ye Family residence, and as soon as he entered, he noticed the atmosphere was odd.
“What happened?” He walked over to Su Hongxing and asked, looking at the angry servant.
“Miss Su just pushed the lady into the swimming pool, i saw it with my own eyes!” The servant glared at Su Hongxing indignantly.
Ye Qilan raised an eyebrow, glanced at Su Hongxing who seemed calm, and asked her, “Is this true?”
Su Hongxing couldn’t be bothered to explain, nor did she want to.
Seeing her , Ye Qilan gently pinched her cheek: “What kind of physique do you have? Everyone seems to want to make their presence felt around you.”
His words took everyone by surprise, Su Hongxing herself was no exception.
Normally, Ye Qilan should side with Du Qingyu, whom he liked. Plus, there was a witness. Regardless, Ye Qilan should stand up for Du Qingyu, right?
Yet Ye Qilan always played his cards in unpredictable ways, and even she couldn’t understand his true intentions.
“Young Master Ye, it’s clear that Miss Su disrespected the lady and pushed her into the pool. How can you blindly protect Miss Su without investigating?” The servant who reported the incident looked at Ye Qilan incredulously.
“Hongxing is my woman, of course, I should believe her unconditionally. Should 1 believe you, a villain who stirs up trouble and spread rumours instead?” Ye Qilan retorted calmly..
