Ye Qilan’s face slightly changed, he reiterated: “I’ll say it again, the woman who was with me that night was you, not this Liu Qingyin. You should have seen Liu Qingyin’s true colours by now; she and Liu Yuan have long been in cahoots, probably gloating over our troubles from wherever they’re hiding.”
He took hold of Su Hongxing’s delicate hand once again.
She struggled, but could not pull free, her annoyance growing.
Ye Qilan held Su Hongxing’s hand even more tightly, speaking seriously: “You know how hard it was for us to be together. So many people want to separate you and me, if we really break up, wouldn’t that be just what they want? Therefore, even if it’s pretense, we need to put on a show for others to see. We have to let those who plot against us know, no matter what they do, they can’t break us apart.”
A faint glint flashed in his eyes.
Even falsehood could become reality if sustained long enough.
Amou, his lover, was the easiest woman to soften. For now, what he can do is to settle her down, especially, to prevent her from returning to Xiao Ji’s side.
This time, he was set up and Xiao Ji must have been involved.
If one was to find the person in this world who hates him the most, it would surely be Xiao Ji. He took Xiao Ji’s woman, causing Xiao Ji’s father to die before his time at less than sixty years old.
If it were him, he too would choose revenge.
Seeing Su Hongxing’s silence, Ye Qilan continued: “Originally, I wanted to torment Xiao Ji to the point where he’d think death a better alternative. Since everything started with me, and he’s only getting back at me for that, wouldn’t I be just getting what I deserve? So, I won’t take action against him. But if you dare get close to him, I will kill him personally–”
“You dare?!” Su Hongxing was startled.
“You’ll see if I dare. I’ll kill any man who dares to get close to you, with intentions towards you. But don’t worry, I won’t hurt Xiao Ji. The condition is, you have to come back to me!” Ye Qilan used all means, deceit and coercion, to first bring this woman back to his side.

“Apart from threatening me, what else can you do?” Su Hongxing stood up and moved further away from Ye Qilan as she sat down.
She silently took a sip of her tea, glancing at Ye Qilan.
Actually, she knew that they were the victims of this incident. If she and Ye Qilan broke up, it’d only fulfill the desires of those who orchestrated everything behind the scenes.
She wasn’t willing to be manipulated by others’ schemes—it was best to join forces with Ye Qilan for now.
And also, she wanted Xiao Ji to know, no matter what he did for her, she could never return to his side.
Therefore, she needed to reconcile with Ye Qilan, even if it was just pretense.
As for other matters, they would have to wait until all the masterminds were exposed, only then could a decision be made.
Ye Qilan ordered the same dish as Su Hongxing, while shaking his head as he ate: “Still, the home-cooked meals back home are the best; western meals just don’t have that homely taste.”
Su Hongxing sat with her back to Ye Qilan, as she had asked for, because she did not wish to see his face.
Whatever Ye Qilan said, she just pretended not to hear.
After finishing her meal, she browsed through a nearby clothing store. As she walked around, she unknowingly ended up in the men’s section.
Ye Qilan approached her and said, “You haven’t bought clothes for me before. Buy me one, I’ll wear it every day.”
Su Hongxing did not respond, but continued carefully selecting men’s clothes.
Ye Qilan was both surprised and elated, thinking that Su Hongxing was going to buy clothes for him.
But when Su Hongxing paid the bill and passed the shirt to Age, his face turned green with envy.
Age’s face turned red, unsure whether to accept it or not.
