Chapter 1225: Chapter 1225: You Are Just Ye Qilan’s Stand-In (7)

Su Hongxing found Fu Yan very annoying: “Can you disappear from my sight?”

“Fourth Brother has ordered me to ensure Fourth Sister-in-law’s safety. Since I’ve promised Fourth Brother, I must keep my word,” Fu Yan had a good excuse.

Su Hongxing was at a loss and when she passed by the master bedroom, she saw the door was tightly closed and assumed Ding Ye must have gone to sleep.

In that case, she did not want to wake him. She went downstairs, poured herself a glass of water, and Fu Yan was very attentive in serving her, with an expression like a servile flatterer.

“Aren’t you tired? Go to bed early,” Su Hongxing shook her head, but as soon as she went upstairs, she found Ding Ye standing in front of the master bedroom door.

Seeing him, she immediately showed a bright, cheerful smile: “I thought you were asleep.”

Ding Ye didn’t speak, just looked at her teacup.

“Do you want water? But I just had a drink…” Before she could finish, Ding Ye took her teacup, drank more than half of it, and handed it back to her: “Goodnight.”

Su Hongxing rigidly replied: “Goodnight!”

She watched Ding Ye go back to his room and close the door. Just as she was about to go to her own room with a wooden face, Ding Ye suddenly came out again: “Will the child disturb your sleep? If so, shall I take him to sleep with me?”

“No, the child is very well-behaved and sleeps through the night,” Su Hongxing replied with a beaming smile.

Ding Ye nodded, said goodnight again, and went to bed.

Fu Yan, who was watching from the side, remarked sharply, “Unwarranted kindness is either treachery or thievery!”

Su Hongxing glanced back at Fu Yan: “Who was it that was being overly attentive to me just now?”

Fu Yan forced a smile: “Fourth Sister-in-law, I am a good person, not like Ding Ye.”

Su Hongxing couldn’t be bothered with him anymore and went back to her room to fall asleep.

Qiao Qiao and Liu Qingyin dared to sleep after they saw her asleep.

It was the first night since Ding Ye moved into Qingmu Garden, and it passed without incident.

However, early in the morning, Ye Family members came to make trouble. The leader was Old Master Ye, along with Xia Yu and her daughter. No one knew where they got the information, but they actually knew that Ding Ye had moved into Qingmu Garden.

Does this mean that someone is still secretly monitoring her every move?

Seeing Su Hongxing coming downstairs with the child, Old Master Ye walked over with the help of his walking stick and sternly demanded: “Miss Su, one should know the virtues of propriety and decency. Fourth Son has just passed away, and you let a strange man live in Qingmu Garden. Are you being fair to Fourth Son? And today, I am taking Fourth Son’s child away!”

His gaze fixed on the little baby. The child had a promising look, very spirited. With proper nurturing, he would surely be successful in the future.

Su Hongxing looked at Old Master Ye and replied indifferently: “This is my house, and I can let anyone stay if I wish! The child is also born to me, what does it have to do with Old Master Ye?”

Old Master Ye was about to retort Su Hongxing’s statement when another person came downstairs.

The man was tall and upright, dressed in a black suit, with a cold and noble demeanor, exuding the unique charm of a mature man with every gesture.

“Fourth Son?!” Old Master Ye saw the man’s face clearly and blurted out.

Not to mention Old Master Ye’s expression as if he had been struck by lightning, Ye Ling was even more frightened, immediately hiding behind Xia Yu: “Mom, isn’t Fourth Brother dead? How could he…”

Xia Yu’s face also turned pale, especially when the man’s gaze swept over, sharp like a steel knife.

Ding Ye came to Su Hongxing’s side and took the child from her arms: “I won’t have breakfast, you drive me to the car.”

He then looked at Old Master Ye and enunciated clearly: “Su Hongxing, from now on, do not casually let Ye Family members in. Qingmu Garden is not a place for just any Tom, Dick, or Harry to come!”
