Chapter 1333: Chapter 1333: Exhausting Ingenuity (1)

Recalling the past life, Ye Qilan was overwhelmed with emotions. It was rare for him to have crawled out of hell and returned to this woman’s side, yet he still did not know how to get along with her.

She was clearly within reach, yet he dared not touch her…

“Wife, I have never betrayed you. The reason I divorced you was that someone took indecent photos of you and Beichuan that night. If I didn’t divorce you, they would have posted it online. I didn’t know it was a trap, nor did I know that before that, someone had made a composite photo of me and Cao Shiyu and sent it to you.”

Ye Qilan’s voice echoed behind Su Hongxing, she turned around and after a long while replied: “It’s too late, go to sleep early.”

Ultimately, the reason for the irreparable tragic ending in their past lives wasn’t that they didn’t love each other enough, but that they didn’t know how to love.

His machismo and her unconditional attachment allowed him to confine her closely like the dodder flower.

What use was their love? In the end, it could not withstand the instigations and separations from others. His excellence highlighted her insignificance and lack of confidence, so much so that she began to doubt him as soon as she received the photos.

He was at fault, and so was she.

However, all those were matters of the past; they had already reincarnated. What was the point in discussing those bygone affairs?

“Are you still unwilling to forgive me? Do you remember you promised me, you can’t abandon me?” Ye Qilan grabbed Su Hongxing’s arm: “You are always more ruthless than me, saying you don’t want me when you don’t want me, do you know how cruel you are?”

Su Hongxing’s heart tightened.

He had said that the one left behind suffers more than the one who has died, was he blaming her for jumping down from the Red Building and leaving him alone in this world?

“I… I just felt life was unbearable, every time I see your face I am in agony, so I… I just jumped down from here…” Su Hongxing’s eyes reddened.

Only those who have suffered from depression know that when the negative emotions hit, it feels like the world is no longer worth staying, and no one is worth staying for.

When Ye Qilan divorced her, she was certain he had an affair, so she impatiently divorced him. She facilitated his wish, exiting his world.

But he did not let her go, forcibly confining her. There were numerous rumors, everyone was saying Ye Qilan kept Cao Shiyu on the side and treated her like a mistress at Qingmu Garden.

Later, when she was pregnant, that child became the sole focus of her life.

Ye Qilan had deeply hurt her; losing the child was a further devastation, and her spirit broke at that time. Without death, she saw no other way out.

“Wife, can we start over, please? Give me a chance for redemption. I’ve waited for you too long, so long I thought I’d never have the chance to return to your side…”

Su Hongxing’s tears soaked through his clothes, penetrating his skin, scalding his heart.

“Wife, I know you love me, your love has always been only for me. Even if you don’t remember the past life, even if you grew up with Xiao Ji as childhood sweethearts in this life, I know you don’t love him. The way you look at him is different from how you look at me, when we were dating, your eyes and heart were filled with only me…”

Su Hongxing was tightly held by Ye Qilan, unable to move.

She could hear his intense heartbeat, and perhaps also her own in reply.
