Chapter 228: Planning to Call Off the Weddingi

“All you women of the Cao Family have twisted morals, don’t you? If he’s my man, there’s no way I’ll let him flirt with other women. Sooner or later, I’ll make sure Ye Ojlan wants no other woman but me, including you, Cao Shiyu!” Su Hongxing took a step towards Cao Shiyu, “Whatever you took from me, I will take it back!”

Cao Shiyu’s brow fell and she murmured, “I’ve already stepped aside, can’t you just…”

“Your acting skills have certainly improved, but don’t you find yourself hypocritical? I’ll say it again, if it’s mine, whoever stole it, I will snatch it back.” Su Hongxing dropped those words and turned to leave.

Cao Shiyu clenched her fists, shouting to Su Hongxing’s retreating figure, “Xiao Ji was snatched by my older cousin, are you going to snatch Xiao Ji back? My uncle was taken by my aunt, can you get him back?!”

Su Hongxing glanced back, offering a brilliant smile, “That depends on what it is. I’m not interested in Xiao Ji anymore. Even without me, Zhou Luhe will never completely win Xiao Ji. I’d rather enjoy watching Zhou Luhe struggling in her own web. ”

Pausing slightly, she mentioned another person, “As for Zhou Peng, honestly, he’s just a stranger to me. Whether he’s good or bad, what does that have to do with me? Ye Qilan is different; he’s the man destined for me. No matter how hard you try, you can’t take him away from me! Moreover, having Ye Qilan is the equivalent of having everything. He likes me and I like him; how could I possibly leave him willingly? Cao Shiyu, wake up!”

Her last sentence was said for Ye Qilan’s sake.

Given Ye Qilan’s suspicious nature, he might have eavesdropped. If Ye Qilan was indeed listening, what she’d said was exactly what he wanted to hear.

For some reason, she felt Ye Qilan was not far from her…

Standing in proximity, Ye Qilan returned to his office with a knowing smile.

When Su Hongxing reentered the office, she saw a tender smile on Ye Qilan’s face, which confirmed her suspicions.

“Did she give you a hard time?” Ye Qilan asked, his eyes soft with lingering laughter.

“Not really… she expressed willing to share a husband with me. I found such a thought ridiculous. I don’t want to share you with any other woman. If I say, I hope you…”

Su Hongxing dropped her gaze, her words hanging in the air.

With a light sigh, Ye Qilan pulled Su Hongxing into his arms, “Let me think about it.”

Maybe the wedding with Cao Shiyu could be called off. His ambition to conquer the Ye Family would certainly be sped up by the assistance of the Cao Family. But even without their help, he would only need a few more years.

He believed in his ability to get what he wanted. But this, he needed to see his grandfather’s decision. After all, the engagement between the two families is public knowledge, the wedding date already set. Annulling the marriage now would stir up a major commotion.

Standing at the slightly ajar door, Cao Shiyu heard the conversation between Su Hongxing and Ye Qilan. She could hardly believe that Ye Qilan was considering cancelling the wedding.

She had already shown weakness to Su Hongxing, but Su Hongxing did not let her off. In that case, she had to take actions against the Ye Family.

A sharp light flitted through her eyes, and she quickly made a decision.

By the time the office hours ended in the afternoon, Ye Qilan decided to pass on attending the dinner.
