Chapter 1499: Chapter 1499: Unable to Coexist (5)
“I know what you’re worried about. It’s just letting them lay low temporarily, not like they won’t come back after going abroad. It’s just a stopgap measure,” Ye Qilan said softly.
Su Hongxing still felt uneasy, “But if Xiaoqiao and Ye Shiqing’s matter really gets exposed, can she still return to the country in the future?”
She would have to endure strange looks from the public, and Qiao Qiao is gentle by nature; she’s afraid Qiao Qiao won’t be able to handle intense public opinion.
“I find that you’re always worrying like a mother hen, worrying about everyone but not enough about me,” Ye Qilan messed up Su Hongxing’s hair, “When the ship reaches the bridge, it will straighten itself out; we’ll find a solution and take it step by step.”
“That’s true, with you here, nothing will be a problem,” Su Hongxing kissed Ye Qilan’s face, “Then I’ll leave this matter for you to handle, I trust you’ll have a way.”
Ye Qilan glared at Su Hongxing’s departing figure, “You just kissed me on the cheek once and leave?”
This girl really, with just a cheek kiss, gets him to work hard for Qiao Qiao, quite calculating.
Su Hongxing held back her laughter, turned to look at Ye Qilan, “Don’t underestimate Xiao Ji; he’s very complex. And most importantly, protect yourself well, don’t get hurt again.”
If not for various coincidences this time, they wouldn’t have guessed that Xiao Ji was the one causing trouble behind the scenes. The chess game Xiao Ji set up calculated everyone who could be schemed against.
Next, Xiao Ji definitely has more moves planned.
Ye Qilan softened his eyes upon hearing Su Hongxing’s advice, “Honey, I’ll protect myself well.”
He’s still thinking of spending a lifetime with her, to live a harmonious and happy second half of life…
Su Hongxing smiled, “That’s good.” She closed the door, and her smile faded.
Ultimately, must things come to tearing faces apart? How will she face Xiao’s mother in the future? The upbringing by the Xiao Family meant she owed them her life.
That night, Su Hongxing tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She recalled the time when she lived at the Xiao Family.
Back then, because she was fostered, she was somewhat withdrawn and slightly inferior; it was Xiao’s mother who raised her as a true daughter, helping her grow into a normal child…
Su Hongxing couldn’t sleep, and Xiao Ji couldn’t either.
He went to the room where Su Hongxing used to stay and took out their old photos together.
From the first day she arrived at the Xiao Family, he thought, how could there be such a beautiful girl in this world? That feeling, using “stunningly beautiful” to describe it was not an exaggeration.
Back then, still young and ignorant, he didn’t know it was love. When he noticed other boys making fervent advances on her during adolescence, he would get angry. That was when he realized he liked Su Hongxing, wanted her to look only at him, think only of him.
Perhaps during that period, he secretly reserved Su Hongxing’s remaining life for himself.
If not for the many changes later on, how could he keep missing opportunities with Su Hongxing?
If Ye Qilan hadn’t existed, he and Su Hongxing would be married by now, perhaps with a pair of lovely children.
If he could start over, he hoped there was no Ye Qilan in this world, and he wouldn’t need the so-called glory and wealth.
Ye Qilan loves Su Hongxing, but does he not love Su Hongxing too?
In the end, he couldn’t reconcile with it!
Xiao’s mother got up at night and noticed the light spilling from Su Hongxing’s room as she passed by; she went in and saw that Xiao Ji was still awake, she entered and said, “Why are you in her room again?”
