Su Hongxing stood frozen in place, her mind swirling with indescribable and complex emotions.
Ye Qilan’s emotional depth was increasing, and this was a good thing. But at the same time, she felt as though something she possessed was being taken over by someone else.
Simply put, it irked her.
She knew that this wasn’t a good sign. She was developing a possessiveness towards Ye Qilan.
She had been spending a lot of time with Ye Qilan lately. Eating together, sleeping together and doing things that only lovers do. Plus, with his dependence on her, she gradually realized she had grown dependent on him as well.
Su Hongxing returned to her office in a daze, trying to focus on work but finding it hard to calm her thoughts.
This couldn’t continue, she needed to save herself, she needed to move out of Ye Qilan’s life quickly, this way she wouldn’t repeat the mistakes of her past life.
Not long after, Ye Qilan returned to the office. Seeing that Su Hongxing was avoiding eye contact with him, he approached her desk, raised her chin and placed a kiss on her lips.
Just as he intended to deepen the kiss, Su Hongxing shoved him away, “It’s working hours, stop messing around!”
Right after flirting with other women, he comes to tease her, so annoying!
” Who upset you?” Ye Qilan was puzzled. She had been all right before, but in an instant, she had reverted to being the starchy, awkward secretary.
“I get annoyed seeing you!” With indifference in her voice, Su Hongxing replied without bothering to pretend otherwise.
“Don’t you like me?” Ye Qilan gently raised Su Hongxing’s chin.
She slapped his hand away, “I need to go out for a while. I’m taking half-day leave.”
“You need to be with me 24/7. If you take leave, who’s going to accompany me?” Ye Qilan’s brow furrowed, and the smile gradually faded from his face.
“Go find one of your girlfriends. I see you’ve been getting along well with them lately. If you spend more time with them, you’ll realize I’m no different than they are.” Su Hongxing gathered her things and quickly left the office.
Ye Qilan wanted to follow her, but Bai Chen walked in and handed him some contracts that needed signing.
By the time Ye Qilan finished signing and attempted to go after her, Su Hongxing was already gone.
It was meeting time next, and Ye Qilan was swamped with work. When he finally found the time, he realized that Su Hongxing had already been away for over two hours.
He sat there in silence for a moment, then called Sheng Yakin.
Sheng Yalun glanced at Su Hongxing who sat before him and replied as she had instructed, “That means you don’t see Su Hongxing as anything special either. She’s the first woman you liked, and there will be a second and a third.”
Ye Qilan found Sheng Yalun’s words somewhat logical.
In their circle, the so-called wealthy and official second generations, changing women is as common as changing clothes.
Beichuan was a prime example – -a different woman by his side every day. As Beichuan had mentioned, it gets boring having the same woman around all the time.
Perhaps if Su Hongxing stayed with him for too long, he would grow bored of her too.
Ye Qilan spent a good thirty minutes chatting with Sheng Yalun, concluding that the affairs of men and women were too complicated, and he needed to focus his attention on work.
Though the old man Ye seemed to favor him to inherit the Ye Family business, there were many descendants of the Ye Family coveting it. If he did not seize the opportunity soon, the toy in his hand would fly away.
To him, the Ye Family was akin to half a toy, perhaps he could also treat women as toys.
Beichuan often told him that women were mere playthings, eligible to be discarded as soon as one tired of them.
Reining in his wandering thoughts, Ye Qilan quickly focused his attention back to work.
