Ye Qilan stood by the staircase, watching Su Hongxing walk farther and farther away with her suitcase in hand. He clenched his fists, his eyes flickering uncertainly.

After a moment of silence, he made a decision and raised his voice, “Su Hongxing, were you just threatening me?!”

Indeed, he couldn’t just let Su Hongxing leave like that. Who knows if this woman, out of jealousy, would spread rumors about him to the media?n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Haven’t I told you that I don’t like being threatened? No one has ever been able to threaten me before, and no one will be able to in the future either. To prevent you from making reckless remarks outside, I have no choice but to keep you here. Remember, you brought this upon yourself, and no one else is to blame!” Ye Qilan quickly descended the stairs, walked behind Su Hongxing and began to speak softly.

With a frown, Su Hongxing turned around to look at Ye Qilan, “You’re overthinking it, I didn’t threaten you, and 1 don’t dare to either.”

She assumed that by threatening Ye Qilan, even if he hesitated, he would let her leave decisively. But the outcome was exactly the opposite.

She should have known that Ye Qilan’s thinking was different from others. She had made a mistake.

“Whether you threatened me or not is not important. What is important is that 1 must prevent you from spreading malicious gossip about me. Only by keeping you by my side can I feel at ease.”

Ye Qilan took a step forward, took Su Hongxing’s suitcase out of her hand, “Go back to your room and rest. I’m very tired tonight.”

Su Hongxing had better behave, otherwise he wouldn’t mind having someone watch over her 24 hours a day.

“You should know, if I want to deal with someone, they can’t possibly escape from my grip. You’d better be sensible and obedient, or I won’t hesitate to get tough on you.” As Ye Qilan spoke, he caught her wrist and dragged her back to the main bedroom.

Ten minutes later, Su Hongxing was sitting stiffly on the sofa, looking blankly at Ye Qilan, who was lying on his side.

“What’s the matter, feeling wronged?” Ye Qilan smiled gently.

Su Hongxing lowered her head and said nothing.

“Don’t give me that deadpan expression, it makes me uneasy!” Ye Qilan frowned slightly.

His chest was aching, an all too familiar yet unfamiliar feeling was returning.

Su Hongxing simply turned her back to Ye Qilan and lay on the couch, simply because she didn’t want to look at Ye Qilan’s face any more.

Little did she know that her silent defiance was only provoking Ye Qilan even more.

She heard heavy footsteps behind her and buried her face into the sofa, hoping to avoid Ye Qilan’s presence.

“Why aren’t you looking at me? Am I an eyesore to you?!” Ye Qilan’s voice was right beside her ear, cold and eerie.

Su Hongxing remained in her original position unmovingly. Ye Qilan chuckled coldly, he gave her a strong tug, dragging her from the couch onto the floor.

Fortunately, the extra flesh on Su Hongxing’s body cushioned the fall. It didn’t hurt too much.

Su Hongxing told herself to endure, to not stoop to Ye Qilan’s level.

Hadn’t she always turned the other cheek every time Zhou Luhe provoked her?

Why was it that after enduring for so many years, and finally getting rid of Zhou Luhe, she now had to deal with an even more troublesome Ye Qilan?

With that thought, she picked herself up from the floor, straightened the wrinkles in her clothes, and turned to leave.

“If you leave, who will I sleep with?!” Ye Qilan spoke as he watched Su Hongxing’s retreating figure, “Get in bed, I don’t like being rough with women, and I don’t want you to be the first one I have to be rough with!”

Su Hongxing simply opened the door, just as Ye Qilan pounced on her from behind…
