Chapter 1284: Chapter 1284: Exposure (6)

The images flashing before Su Hongxing’s eyes were of Cao Shiyu’s scar-covered body and Ye Qilan’s indifferent back.

Even though he was facing away from her and she couldn’t see his face, she could guess what his expression and gaze were like at that time. He must have looked at Cao Shiyu as if he were looking at an animal…

Su Hongxing did not know how she had made it home, she left the door deliberately ajar, waiting at the entrance.

She waited until she was drowsy, nearly falling asleep, until it was almost dawn when she heard footsteps. Checking the time, it was 5 a.m.

During breakfast, Qiao Qiao was the first to notice something off about Su Hongxing: “Su, are you okay?”

Su Hongxing looked at Qiao Qiao and smiled nonchalantly: “Why would anything be wrong with me?”

“Your complexion doesn’t look too good; did you not sleep well last night?” Qiao Qiao touched Su Hongxing’s pale face, a subconscious gesture, only to be suddenly slapped away by Ye Qilan.

Ye Qilan’s force was so strong that it quickly swelled the back of Qiao Qiao’s hand.

“Ye Qilan, what are you doing?!” Su Hongxing turned towards Ye Qilan.

This morning, as soon as she saw this man, she observed his expression and found nothing out of the ordinary.

She could no longer see through his thoughts, grasp his intentions, nor know what he was doing or who he was dealing with at certain times.

She didn’t sympathize with Cao Shiyu, after all, that woman was insane. But how was what Ye Qilan doing any different from her?

“She shouldn’t touch you!” Ye Qilan replied coldly, seeing nothing wrong with it.

Su Hongxing belonged to him, and only he has the right to touch her!

“She’s my friend, and she was just concerned about me. Are you overthinking this?” Su Hongxing tried to reason with Ye Qilan.

Ye Qilan did not respond any further. Feeling like it was impossible to communicate with him, Su Hongxing simply went to look for some ointment, planning to apply some to Qiao Qiao’s hand.

But as soon as she found the ointment, it was snatched away by Ye Qilan, who threw it to Qiao Qiao: “Apply it yourself. My wife is not here to serve you!”

“Ye Qilan, can you be reasonable?!” Su Hongxing flared up and yelled at Ye Qilan.

“How am I being unreasonable? You’ve never applied ointment for me; why should you do it for her? You are my wife, not hers,” Ye Qilan said, then coldly turned his gaze towards Qiao Qiao.

Qiao Qiao felt frightened by Ye Qilan’s stare.

Seeing Su Hongxing wanting to argue with Ye Qilan, she quickly intervened: “Su, I’m fine, don’t argue with him.”

Ye Qilan’s possessiveness was too frightening; he even got jealous over her, a woman. It’s worth pondering that when Ye Qilan first appeared as Ding Ye, he didn’t show any possessiveness towards Su Hongxing, at that time they all thought Ding Ye was a cold and reticent person.

Later, when Ye Qilan resumed his real identity, he no longer hid his possessiveness for Su Hongxing. It just shows, this man can hide his emotions. And when he chooses not to hide them, it becomes a bit scary.

Perhaps, she should no longer stay at Qingmu Garden, after all, this is Su Hongxing and Ye Qilan’s home, and her being an outsider, she feared she might affect their marital relationship.

After breakfast, Qiao Qiao spoke to Su Hongxing about this.

Su Hongxing’s face turned cold: “Are you not going to help me take care of the child anymore?”

“The child sleeps with you at night, there’s not much I can help with, and we’re still together at the company, aren’t we? And don’t argue with Ye Qilan anymore, the more you fight, the more it hurts the relationship,” Qiao Qiao advised.
