369: Chapter 369: Getting Angry at Su Qingyu 369: Chapter 369: Getting Angry at Su Qingyu “Officer Zhang Ting from the police station always comes to you when there’s trouble.
You said last time you were going to solve a case.
Did you go somewhere else?” Su Qingyu extended her fair, jade-like finger, questioning Ye Shikai.
“People consider her a police officer.
If I had any ulterior motives and she caught me, she might cripple me.” Ye Shikai was somewhat speechless.
The first time they met, just because he told Zhang Ting a risqué joke, she hit him between the legs with a baton.
If Ye Shikai weren’t a cultivator, he would have been crippled by her.
Even hooligans and perverts might take a detour when seeing her.
However, regarding Zhang Ting’s attitude towards Ye Shikai, even he himself didn’t feel any affection, so how did Su Qingyu sense it first?
“Then Qingqing mentioned another girl who likes you.
What was her name, Li Mengmeng, right?
What’s between you two?”
“Come on, she’s just a kid, Qingyu.
Your suspicions might be colorful, but shouldn’t you doubt my moral character, too?
No, wait, what colorful suspicions…” Ye Shikai curiously looked at Su Qingyu.
Why had she become so jealous today?
Moreover, it was out of character for her to come and question him , even dragging in some unrelated matters.
“Who knows if you’ll make a move on her.” Su Qingyu muttered discontentedly.
At that, Ye Shikai grew slightly angry.
Never mind the kindness Mr.
Li’s family had shown him, Li Mengmeng was his friend, and he wouldn’t allow Su Qingyu to say such things.
If others heard it, who knows what they might gossip about Li Mengmeng.
“Su Qingyu, have you had enough?” Ye Shikai suddenly roared, then he faced her with a cold expression.
It was rare for him to lose his temper with Su Qingyu.
No matter how assertive she had been before, Ye Shikai usually didn’t mind.
But today, perturbed by a matter of principle, Ye Shikai wasn’t a pushover; he had a temper, and he could erupt in fury.
“I don’t know what’s gotten into you today, but I still need to tell you to be careful with your words.
Even if you are my wife, I won’t allow your thoughtless remarks to hurt my friends,” Ye Shikai said coldly.
Su Qingyu was stunned by his reaction, standing there as tears streamed down her face.
Ye Shikai flung her hand away and turned his head away, refusing to look at her.
sorry, I was too impulsive.” After a long silence, Su Qingyu finally calmed down.
Like a little girl who had erred, she tugged at the hem of Ye Shikai’s shirt.
Seeing that he looked fierce, she knew he was truly angry and that she had crossed his line.
Normally, they would be tolerant of the women by their side, but once the woman touches the man’s bottom line, he can become utterly heartless, even if it’s the closest person beside him.
And men really dislike it when women make a fuss without reason.
If it had been Su Ziqing speaking , Ye Shikai wouldn’t have been surprised, but coming from Su Qingyu, it was quite unexpected.
“Knock knock knock.” At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
“Come in.” Ye Shikai spoke irritably.
Because of the recent incident, his temper had not subsided, and the tone of his voice was dense with anger.
“Miss Su, here is the watch you ordered.” A man walked in.
He looked like a staff member from a watch store.
Seeing the scene before him, he couldn’t help feeling a bit embarrassed, realizing that the atmosphere between the two wasn’t right.
He quickly set down the box and scurried away.
Su Qingyu walked over to the coffee table and took out the watch from the box—a pure silver body with a white dial, elegant yet dignified.
This was a watch she had specifically selected from the watch store, thinking for a long time before deciding it suited Ye Shikai the best.
“Husband, let me put it on for you.” Su Qingyu’s face was full of remorse, her hand holding the watch trembling slightly as she tried to put the watch on Ye Shikai.
But as soon as her hand touched his wrist, it was gently pushed away.
“Forget it, I appreciate the thought, but this watch still works fine; there’s no need for such extravagance,” Ye Shikai said indifferently, then without looking at Su Qingyu, he turned and left the room.
“Bang.” The watch fell to the ground, the crystal case shattered into pieces, along with the sound of a breaking heart…
Ye Shikai did not go to find Tianjing immediately, full of anger and dissatisfaction, in such a state he was not suited for discussing matters with him.
He took the hotel’s passage to the topmost presidential suite.
“Who is it?” A female voice rang out from inside.
Ye Shikai opened the door without a word and walked in, poured himself a glass of ice water, and gulped it down voraciously.
Did you go run a marathon?” The woman slowly approached Ye Shikai, the owner of this presidential suite was none other than Luo Shiqi.
She rested her chin in her palm, staring intently at Ye Shikai’s profile with deep implication.
“Don’t bother me, let me be alone for a while,” Ye Shikai said irritably, Luo Shiqi’s face flashed with a different color, but she didn’t get angry; she just smiled, distanced herself a bit, and sat in the corner, silently watching Ye Shikai.
Twenty minutes later.
“How is it, feeling a bit calmer now?” Luo Shiqi asked with a playful laugh.
“Sigh, Shiqi, are women’s tempers like their periods, sometimes suddenly turning stormy?” After calming down, most of the anger in Ye Shikai’s chest dissipated as well; he leaned his head on the table, looking very tired.
“I don’t know about others, but I certainly don’t,” Luo Shiqi smiled gracefully, walked slowly to Ye Shikai’s side, patted him on the back, and then revealed a teasing expression, “Let me guess, did you and Qingyu have a falling out?”
“Playing dumb,” Ye Shikai glanced at her with disdain, then lowered his head and lay on the table again.
“Haha, come on, tell me about it.”
Ye Shikai recounted the day’s events to Luo Shiqi without omitting any detail, then took a deep breath.
It was truly uncomfortable to keep these things bottled up inside, and finally, he found someone to confide in.
“Haha, I guess she’s just jealous.
Who would have thought, the famous ice queen of Yanjing, such an ethereal person, could actually get jealous like a little girl,” Luo Shiqi couldn’t help but laugh a few times, Ye Shikai glared at her somewhat displeased, before she restrained herself a bit.
“But managing such a big company is tiring for her too, and being jealous just shows that she values you.
You should be more understanding towards her,” after the laughter, Luo Shiqi took out a bottle of red wine from the liquor cabinet, along with two tall glasses.
The red wine appeared to be of a good vintage and quality.
Luo Shiqi gently poured a glass and handed it to Ye Shikai.
“Sigh, of course I know that.
Alright, I’ll talk to her again tonight.” Ye Shikai downed the red wine in his glass in one go; right now, he didn’t have the mood to slowly savor the taste of the wine.
