Ye Qilan spoke gently, but his words were harsh, enough to shatter Du Qingyu’s emotions in an instant.
With tears streaming down her face, she incredulously looked at Ye Qilan, blocked mercilessly by him outside the door.
She sobbed, taking a long while to calm her turbulent emotions. When she turned around, she saw Su Hongxing not far behind her.
Su Hongxing didn’t intend to eavesdrop. She was just going upstairs to change her clothes for work when she overheard the conversation between Ye Qilan and Du Qingyu.
Immediately, Du Qingyu furiously vented her anger on Su Hongxing and growled at her, “Don’t be too pleased, Su Hongxing. The me you see now is your future self!”
If this had happened before today, Su Hongxing would probably deem Du Qingyu as a woman who lacked self-respect.
But now, she was unsure…
She absentmindedly went to the room next door to change her clothes. When she opened the door, Ye Qilan was waiting outside.
His eyes were soft as he looked at her, “Are you feeling unwell? I wasn’t comfortable leaving you alone at home, so I’ve decided to take you to the office with me.”
“I’m fine, let’s go,” Su Hongxing said, patting the area near her heart. It hurt a bit, just like the pain she felt in her dream had continued into reality.
Ye Qilan could see that Su Hongxing was troubled. Because on their car ride, regardless of how much Beichuan tried to engage her, she didn’t utter a word.
Once they reached the office, Su Hongxing immersed herself in work. Any unresolved feelings were set aside for now. At the moment, her work was the priority; she needed to be self-reliant and earn money to support herself.
She could now face anyone openly, even Beichuan. Only when she saw Ye Qilan’s gentle face did her heart hurt.
The busy work could help her evade some issues, but the work had to end some time.
One day, the company signed a contract worth a billion. She heard that Ye Qilan’s performance this time would play a crucial role in his ascension as the head of the Ye family.
Beichuan initially wanted to stick around Su Hongxing, but later, unable to resist the allure of a beautiful woman, he decided to satisfy his physiological needs first, before digging out the secrets of this unattractive woman, Su Hongxing.
When they returned to the villa, Ye Qilan called Su Hongxing, “If something is troubling you, feel free to share it with me. I’m a good listener.”
Su Hongxing looked at him deeply. His handsome, gentle, and captivating face was exactly like the man in her dreams. The only difference was that when the man in her dream revealed his true nature, it was like a demon emerging from hell, chillingly cold.
This time, she had dreamt for an entire day and night. In her dream, there was only one scenario: he was looking down on her from above, with a cruel, heartless smile on his face, while she was crying out in anguish.
She struggled to wake up from the dream but no matter how much she tried, she couldn’t.
That’s why the moment she opened her eyes, she felt liberated from the nightmare, no longer having to experience the feeling of her heart being torn apart.
What was terrifying was that the pain from the dream seemed to have transferred into reality. Now, every time she saw Ye Qilan’s face, her heart ached.
Suddenly, she was afraid.
She thought that Su Hongxing in her dreams was like any other woman, also in love with Ye Qilan. Otherwise, her heart wouldn’t hurt so much.
“I’ve decided to move out,” Su Hongxing said after some thought.
She now thought Xiao Ji was right. She had to stay away from Ye Qilan, before everything spiraled out of control..
