“It’s not like I asked you to wait.” Su Hongxing said calmly: “You say I’m your lover, so what benefits have I gained from being your lover? Even when I went shopping today, I had to borrow money from a colleague. Others wear the best and eat the best, and me, every penny I spend has to be carefully calculated.”
So, does Ye Qilan have any right to be angry?
Everyone knows that she was forced into being his lover.
She is merely his lover, she didn’t sell herself to him, and he doesn’t have the right to control her freedom either.
Ye Qilan looked at Su Hongxing for a long time, he found that he couldn’t refute her words because she made sense.
“Ye Qilan, when I was your wife I didn’t enjoy the respect that a wife deserved. Now being your lover, I haven’t received even a bit of privilege. If you continue to treat me like this, I can only ask other men for money.”
With that, Su Hongxing broke free of Ye Qilan’s grasp and walked upstairs without looking back.
Once she had hidden away in her room, she quickly locked the door. She didn’t want to have any close contact with Ye Qilan, so the real aim of today’s encounter was to avoid having to sleep with him.
Fortunately, that night, Ye Qilan did not come to harass her again.
Early the next morning, she opened the door to see Ye Qilan waiting outside. Seeing her come out, the gloominess on his face faded, and his eyes softened. He took her hand and led her downstairs, “If you didn’t come out, I was about to come looking for you.”
Su Hongxing was silent.
Seeing her expression, Ye Qilan said, “I’ve thought carefully about what you said. Indeed, I’ve been neglectful. I’ll try to be better towards you in the future.”
He wasn’t so stingy with other women, only with Su Hongxing did he want to control everything about her and prevent her from leaving him.
“You’ve said the same thing before and you didn’t keep your word. I feel like, if you can’t fulfill your promise, you shouldn’t make it so lightly.” Su Hongxing replied calmly.
Xiao Ji had also once promised to treat her well and pamper her for a lifetime, but in the end, he chose to leave her.
If one were to ask what is unreliable in this world, it would be vows. Vows are often made only to be broken.
“You’re right about that.” Ye Qilan responded quietly.
He found that Su Hongxing was always able to point out his faults succinctly and accurately.
He never used to think there was anything wrong with being selfish. He always believed in every man for himself, but Su Hongxing’s worldview and values are completely opposite to his.
For the first time, he felt heartache for a woman, and it made him feel quite uncomfortable.
In the past, he would probably have sought Sheng Yalun for clarity. But now, he neither likes nor trusts Sheng Yalun, so naturally, he wouldn’t go to him.
From that day on, Ye Qilan stopped watching Su Hongxing closely, and would give her shopping cards, allowing her to go shopping on her own.
But Su Hongxing was not stupid, she knew that Ye Qilan had people secretly watching her every move.
Ye Qilan had a strong desire to control everything. She was his prey, how could he possibly let her go out alone?
It was the weekend, and Ye Qilan accompanied Cao Shiyu to the Cao family to bond, giving her some private time. She agreed to go to the mall with Qiao Qiao.
Shortly after they started shopping, she received a call from Sheng Yalun.
