Chapter 256: 256:1 Don't Know If I Have a Tomorrow. _1

“Really.” Su Hongxing replied weakly.

With Su Hongxing’s affirmative answer, Ye Ojlan finally felt at ease to take a bath.

Later, Su Hongxing stood too long and took a few steps forward. Keen-eyed Ye Qilan saw this and abruptly rushed out, grabbing her arm and questioning, “Where are you going?!”

“I’m tired from standing, just stretching a bit…” Su Hongxing turned her head, only to witness a scene that stunned her eyes. She quickly shifted her gaze away, “Continue your bath!”

She found that Ye Qilan’s desire to control had intensified this lifetime.

Ye Qilan himself felt a little paranoid. This time he dragged Su Hongxing to the door and hurriedly finished his bath.

“Help me dry my hair.” Ye Qilan passed the hairdryer to Su Hongxing.

Su Hongxing did not want to take the hairdryer, but upon meeting Ye Qilan’s deep gaze, she sensed a hint of pitifulness in his eyes.

In the end, she quietly accepted the hairdryer and helped him dry his hair.

“The last time you helped me dry my hair was in our previous life.” Ye Qilan said pensively.

Su Hongxing paused her movements but did not respond.

Even though it was something from their past life, it seemed intangible to her as she just recently regained her memories of that lifetime.

“Let’s not part ways again, alright?” Ye Qilan tugged at Su Hongxing’s pajamas.

Su Hongxing replied using only four words: “Life is unpredictable.”

In their previous life, they even planned to get married. However, not long after making this promise, they parted ways and ended up being separated by life and death.

“I believe in the power of human will over fate. As long as we strive a little, everything can change.” Ye Qilan held Su Hongxing’s hand, saying, “Don’t you believe we are a match made by heaven?”

“I don’t.” Su Hongxing replied indifferently, and continued to dry his hair.

Seeing her like this gave Ye Qilan an idea of her attitude.

A man’s hair is short, so Su Hongxing quickly finished drying Ye Qilan’s hair. But she noticed he seemed lost in thought, a vacant look in his eyes.

“I don’t believe in you, and I won’t believe in him either!” After a long silence, Ye Qilan finally spoke, every word pronounced distinctly.

Su Hongxing didn’t understand his words but didn’t dwell on them either. She was tired and wanted to rest.

“Hongxing, give me a promise that you won’t leave me.” The moment Su Hongxing climbed into bed, Ye Qilan followed immediately. He turned her around, forcing her to look at him.

Su Hongxing responded helplessly: “It’s very late now, can we discuss this tomorrow?”

By tomorrow, would Ye Qilan still remember her?

“I don’t know if I have tomorrow…”

Ye Qilan’s statement made Su Hongxing’s heart clench. For a moment, she regarded him as a pitiful person.

But how could she offer compassion to others when her life was such a struggle? It was her life she was leading and the road she had decided to take.

Even if Ye Qilan forgets her, he would still have countless other admirers, and his wealth was endless to squander. Was there anything about such a Ye ‘Fourth Master’ that merited her sympathy?

“I have no other demands. Can’t you just promise me this?” Ye Qilan grabbed Su Hongxing’s hand, his eyes downcast. “My existence is tied to yours. If you leave…”

If she insisted on leaving, he had no idea what he would do.

After looking at Ye Qilan for a while, Su Hongxing suddenly asked, “I remember you saying that there were not only past lives between us, but more than one preceding lifetime, right?”

Ye Qilan did not know her intention in asking this, so he did not answer.
