Chapter 137: Cao Shiyu is more important than Su Hongxing _1

Translator: 549690339 |

Beichuan left a figurative bomb for Su Hongxing and hastily left the office building.

Su Hongxing stood in place, her thoughts chaotically swirling.

Earlier, Beichuan spoke with utmost certainty, his expression resolute. He didn’t seem to be lying.

Even though she didn’t know what tricks Beichuan would play next, she felt that it probably had something to do with her.

Beichuan even took Cao Shiyu with him; Cao Shiyu cooperated quite well, and together they put on quite a performance. Now, it all depends on Ye Qilan’s choices.

After Cao Shiyu left, Ye Qilan initially seemed perfectly fine, but after an hour, some signs of unrest began to show.

He became irritable and hot-tempered. The usually gentle and refined man had lost his temper several times that morning and even threw things around in the office — something the old him would never do.

Su Hongxing knew that Cao Shiyu had a significant influence on Ye Qilan, but she never thought that Ye Qilan couldn’t live without Cao Shiyu.

It seems that Beichuan and Cao Shiyu made the right move.

“Hongxing, let me hold you.” Ye Qilan also realized that he was not behaving normally.

He was anxious and wanted to see Cao Shiyu’s smile. It was like a craving he couldn’t shake. Without Cao Shiyu, he felt restless.

Su Hongxing gently leaned into his arms and softly said, “If you’re feeling unwell, consider resting in the lounge for a while. Your productivity is too low right now.”

After holding Su Hongxing for a while, Ye Qilan suddenly said, “Let me see you smile.”

Su Hongxing remained poker-faced: “Sorry, I really can’t smile.”

It was a joke. How could she possibly smile at such a moment?

Ye Qilan released Su Hongxing: “If you don’t smile, I am going to look for Shiyu.”

At that moment, he suddenly felt that, if Su Hongxing wasn’t smiling, she was only good for sleeping with him.

He had always thought that Su Hongxing was more pleasing to him than Cao Shiyu, but now, it seemed that Cao Shiyu was more important than Su Hongxing.

If he had to choose one, should he pick Cao Shiyu?

The moment this idea popped up, his body and heart seemed to resist strongly.

Seeing Ye Qilan’s pale face, Su Hongxing put her hand on his forehead, noticing it was cold, completely without warmth, and he was sweating nervously.

“Ye Qilan, what’s wrong with you…”

Su Hongxing didn’t finish her sentence before Ye Qilan’s body suddenly went limp towards her.

She quickly supported him and called Bai Chen into the office: “He fainted. Call Sheng Yalun first.”

After Ye Qilan lost consciousness, he looked as delicate as fine china. Who would have known that this beautiful man was her life’s disaster. No wonder they say, the more beautiful something is, the more poisonous it can be.

“If Cao Shiyu is so important, then keep her, and let me go.” She whispered in his ear.

In life, one can seldom have it all; a choice always must be made.

Sheng Yalun arrived as fast as he could. After quickly understanding what had happened, he was also at a loss.

“Take him home and stay by his side.” Sheng Yalun looked at Su Hongxing: “Are you sure that he fainted because of Cao Shiyu?”

Why did he have the gut feeling that Ye Qilan’s fainting was actually due to Su Hongxing?

Su Hongxing replied with calm determination, “Of course. You really think this is a joke? The whole office knows that ever since Cao Shiyu left, he’s become much more irritable. His last words to me before he fainted were that he was going to look for Shiyu. If you don’t believe it, you can ask him yourself after he wakes up.”
