Chapter 266: 266: First World Extra Story: Hunting_1

“There’s nothing.” Su Hongxing pretends to be calm, backing off two steps: “I won’t bother you anymore from work. I’ll leave first.”

This time she left without waiting for Xiao Ji to respond, trying hard not to let him see the fluctuations in her mood.

Once she left Xiao Ji’s company, she took a deep breath, deciding to keep her distance from him in the future.

Everything Ye Qilan had said was right.

A moment ago, she truly sensed an uncomfortable feeling from the look in Xiao Ji’s eyes.

Today was destined to be a busy day.

She was just about to go home when she received a call from an unknown number, it was Cao Shiyu, asking to talk to her.

Half an hour later, she went to a cafe, but Cao Shiyu was late.

Cao Shiyu took off her sunglasses, sat opposite her, and without any nonsense, got straight to the point: “I want Brother Si!”

Su Hongxing did not answer, she only looked at Cao Shiyu quietly.

Cao Shiyu revealed a confident smile and arrogantly said: “Brother Si is like a dragon among men, but he’s taken a step back because of you. If he marries me, I can assist him virtuously, and the Cao Family will become his strong backing! Su Hongxing, you have nothing and will only hold him back. You can’t help him in his business, and in the end, he might be dragged down by you. Can you bear to see such an outstanding man, who should have a promising future, be ruined by you, a woman?”

“He’s doing well now, and he’ll do better in the future. I know how excellent my husband is, I don’t need your reminder.” Su Hongxing replied calmly.

“Su Hongxing, how long are you going to deceive yourself and others? Haven’t you noticed, ever since you married him, he has never taken you to any banquet. You know who’s always been by his side? Me! Whenever he needs help, it’s me stepping forward. He didn’t tell you, but I work in his company, I’m his personal secretary…”

Cao Shiyu’s words made Su Hongxing pale.

How could Ye Qilan not know her grudges with the Cao Family? Despite that, did he still arrange Cao Shiyu in his company?

Su Hongxing suddenly realized that she didn’t know her husband at all.

“These years, I’ve been by his side trying hard, watching his company grow step by step. But what have you done for him?!” Cao Shiyu abruptly stood up, looking down at Su Hongxing arrogantly: “Su Hongxing, you only enjoy the luxurious life he provides to you. In public affairs, you can’t help him. In private affairs, you’ll only hold him back. Is someone like you deserving of him? If I were you, I’d let him go, let him soar.”

After finishing her speech, Cao Shiyu put on her sunglasses.

As she got to the door of the cafe, she looked back at Su Hongxing. She learned about Su Hongxing’s weakness from Zhou Luhe, and used it against her, believing it would yield results.

She believed, one day she would justifiably stand by Ye Qilan’s side, become Ye Qilan’s wife, and bear his children!

After parting with Cao Shiyu, Su Hongxing was disoriented.

She knew Ye Qilan was an exceptional man, she also recognized that her background did not match Ye Qilan’s, which probably explained why Ye Qilan rarely took her to the Ye family’s ancestral home.

Over these years, Ye Qilan’s ambitions have grown, and the Ye Family has flourished under his leadership.

He was already an excellent man, could he have done even better without her to hold him back?

As Cao Shiyu said, Ye Qilan had a business talent, was handsome, and wealthy. What made him be attracted to her initially? Was it because she was prettier back then?
