92: Chapter 92 Promise 92: Chapter 92 Promise “Will it be like in the movies?” Even Ye Shikai himself doesn’t know the answer to this question.
Love is a matter between two people, but who can guarantee it will never change?
Even couples in love break up and make up all the time.
How much more so for them?
It’s probably impossible to find a second pair like Su Qingyu and Ye Shikai in the whole world.
“Qingyu, what do you think?” After pondering for a long while, Ye Shikai asked.
“I really don’t know.
Ever since I was young, all I knew was studying, and as I grew older, I started engaging in business.
Until now, becoming the president of Tianya Group, I’ve always believed that a woman has to rely on herself.
I’ve never been in love, never had a boyfriend.
Actually, when my dad arranged this marriage for me, I was very resistant…
to your…” Su Qingyu spoke until the end, somewhat embarrassed.
“Um, I know, I understand you.
No one likes to be married off randomly to a stranger.” Ye Shikai nodded.
“My dad always told me that you were different from ordinary people.
At first, I always thought he was just consoling me.
It wasn’t until recently that I realized that you really are different from ordinary people.” Su Qingyu lifted her head, her firm gaze appearing earnest.
“Your skills are extraordinary; I can understand that since you were a commando before.
But what exactly is your relationship with Luo Shiqi, and why does she keep showing you goodwill?
What did you really do during those years abroad?” As Su Qingyu spoke, she began to get agitated.
“Qingyu, listen to me…”
“Shiqi probably knows about our relationship by now, right?” Before Ye Shikai could finish, Su Qingyu said indifferently, her words like a thunderclap exploding next to Ye Shikai’s ears.
“Um, yes, she knows.” Ye Shikai looked at Su Qingyu’s resolute expression and ultimately did not conceal anything and admitted it.
If Su Qingyu was bold enough to say this, it meant that she had some evidence.
It would be pointless for him to keep denying it.
“No wonder she was giving me a hard time at the auction, and yet I, like a fool, actually allowed my own sister to become your girlfriend.” Su Qingyu spoke and unexpectedly, her voice carried a hint of sobs.
The Su Qingyu at this moment seemed very unstable emotionally.
“Qingyu, are you alright?” Ye Shikai set down the chopsticks in his hand, sat next to Su Qingyu, and gently patted her back.
“I’m fine.” Su Qingyu took a tissue and gently wiped her eyes, self-mockingly said, “Before, I rejected you, disliked you.
I knew too little about you and let Luo Shiqi see me as a joke.
“Ye Shikai, promise me that you won’t hide anything from me in the future, okay?
As your wife, I don’t want to know less about you than an outsider.” Su Qingyu’s eyes showed determination, and Ye Shikai knew that these were her genuine feelings.
“Okay, I promise you.” Ye Shikai nodded vigorously, somewhat ashamedly said, “The things from before, I was also at fault, I’ve hidden things from you.
Some matters, I feared you…
wouldn’t be able to accept.”
“Since we’re already husband and wife, then your matters are my matters.”
“No, Qingyu, those matters…
they go beyond the understanding of ordinary people, and they also involve many secrets.
I’m afraid that if I tell you, it might…
I’m sorry, right now I really can’t say.” Ye Shikai said helplessly.
“Alright, I respect you, and I will wait for the day you tell me everything.” After a while, Su Qingyu smiled with content, and her smile also eased Ye Shikai’s tension, the tight string in his heart loosened.
“Thank you, Qingyu.” Ye Shikai nodded sincerely, his words heartfelt.
“Ye Shikai, let’s put aside all that has happened before, okay?
From now on, let’s start over like a normal couple.”
“Um, okay.” Ye Shikai was a bit stunned, not expecting Su Qingyu to say this to him.
This was suggesting that he should pursue her, right?
No, it was an explicit signal.
The two of them had no emotional foundation before, just as a building has no foundation, such a marriage is unstable.
But now, the two of them were about to start cultivating feelings, which no doubt was good for both.
They exchanged a knowing smile.
From now on, they truly were lovers.
After the meal, Su Qingyu suddenly pouted, “Today is Chinese Valentine’s Day, don’t you have any gesture to make?”
“Gesture, what kind of gesture?” Ye Shikai was startled, not catching Su Qingyu’s implication.
He had been single for so many years; when had he ever been in love?
Was she referring to…
that kind of implication?
“Hmph, Qingqing said you bought me a gift.” Su Qingyu said, a hint of dissatisfaction on her face, but Ye Shikai finally understood Su Qingyu’s intent.
She was talking about gifts; he had almost got the wrong end of the stick…
“Ah, I almost forgot.” Ye Shikai scratched his head, took out a wooden box from his bag, and cautiously handed it to Su Qingyu, “Qingyu, here, oh no, wife, take a look.” Ye Shikai said with a smile, a small change in the title making Su Qingyu feel warm inside.
Su Qingyu slowly opened the wooden box, a black jade bracelet lay quietly inside.
It was as dark as ink, smooth and fine.
Tianya Group’s main business included jade, diamond rings, and some high-end jewelry.
Being well aware of the quality of jade, she could tell that the bracelet before her was of premium quality and certainly expensive.
More importantly, such a jade bracelet was very rare; even a professional in the field like herself rarely saw one.
Su Qingyu was surprised that Ye Shikai would give her such a precious gift, but she was very happy.
It was obvious that Su Qingyu liked the gift a lot.
“How is it, Qingyu, do you like it?” Seeing the expression on Su Qingyu’s face, Ye Shikai was already aware of her thoughts, and similarly, his heart was filled with joy.
“Yes, it’s a beautiful bracelet.” Su Qingyu gently picked up the bracelet.
Her fair and slender hand coupled with the black, smooth bracelet created a unique aesthetic.
“How did you get such an expensive bracelet?” Su Qingyu asked, somewhat puzzled.
Such high-quality jade bracelets were rare; Ye Shikai was just a white-collar worker, how could he have come upon it?
“Uh, it’s from a friend of mine who specializes in the jade and antique business.
I told him I was getting a gift for my wife today, and he gave me this.” What Ye Shikai said was almost entirely true, but he didn’t mention Shi Chengyu’s name.
“I see, I really should thank him properly then.” Su Qingyu nodded, apparently believing him.
“Qingyu, let me put the bracelet on for you,” Ye Shikai offered.
