Su Hongxing slapped her hand down on the table in an attempt to impose her presence, yet accidentally hurt her own hand in the process.
Her lips twitched in pain. As she lifted her eyes, she noticed a faint smirk appearing in Ye Qilan’s eyes.
On one hand, she was annoyed at her own clumsiness, but on the other, she realized that Ye Qilan indeed was emotionally stirred due to her. This was a good sign.
“Su Hongxing, I think you’re the one who’s sick! Yalun is my doctor, you’re merely my medication,” Ye Qilan grabbed Su Hongxing’s hand, noticing her fair palm turning red, his eyes darkening slightly.
He might be lacking in emotions, but that didn’t mean he was without intelligence. This woman was foolish enough thinking she could override his authority.
“Does it hurt? Let me blow it for you,” Ye Qilan planted a soft kiss on Su Hongxing’s delicate hand, then blew on it a few times, his eyes softening with tenderness.
Sheng Yalun saw this tender moment the moment he descended the stairs.
He had never witnessed such affection in Ye Qilan’s eyes before.
Ye Qilan had always been gentle to other women, but his eyes were empty, void of emotions. Su Hongxing, however, could easily influence him.
Maybe Ye Qilan hadn’t noticed himself. He was now capable of both fury and sympathy, both were the most common feelings shared by ordinary people.
But his emotions were only stirred by Su Hongxing, which indicated that he still had away to go.
As for what Su Hongxing stated, he found it rather interesting. On one hand, Su Hongxing was influencing Ye Qilan’s emotions, but on the other, Ye Qilan hadn’t severed his ties with other women, which might also affect their feelings towards him.
If one day, Ye Qilan would emotionally react to others, it would signify that he had healed from his condition.
When Ye Qilan and Su Hongxing appeared hand in hand in everyone’s sights, those who witnessed it were stunned.
Of all the women Ye Qilan has dated, every single one of them has been more outstanding than Su Hongxing.
But the only woman who could appear in public holding hands with Ye Qilan was Su Hongxing, and her alone.
While Su Hongxing was in the restroom, she unintentionally overheard some women gossiping about her, their voices quite loud, their environment ignored.
“Who would’ve thought that the ugly Su Hongxing could win over Mr. Ye, what do you think he saw in her?” Secretary A snorted with disdain when she brought up Su Hongxing.
“Perhaps he’s attracted to her plump body. I genuinely can’t understand why a man as outstanding as Mr. Ye would have such poor taste. Isn’t any one of us a hundred times more attractive than Su Hongxing?” Secretary B chimed in.
“Flowers don’t bloom for a hundred days. Today, Su Hongxing ascends to power, but she could lose favor tomorrow. After all, we’re all aware of Mr. Ye’s speed in changing women…”
Su Hongxing stepped out of the restroom just then, the secretaries who had been discussing her looked embarrassed.
She nonchalantly walked past them, kindly reminding, “Next time you badmouth someone, make sure they’re not around first.”
Not everyone could be as forgiving as her and not hold grudges.
As she was about to leave the restroom, a tall figure suddenly appeared. It was none other than the main character of the secretaries’ gossip, Ye Qilan.
“Notify me before you go to the bathroom.”
After saying this, Ye Qilan tightened his grip on her hand, ready to exit the restroom. Suddenly, he turned back to address the dumbfounded secretaries, “The company doesn’t keep freeloaders. Pack your things and get out!”
