When Su Hongxing returned to the Ye’s family old house, it was already half past four in the morning.

As soon as she walked into her bedroom, she could sense the tension in the room. She turned on the light and saw Ye Qilan sitting on the edge of the bed, and she remembered what Ye Xiandong had said to her.

“Where have you been?” Ye Qilan motioned Su Hongxing over.

Su Hongxing went over to sit by Ye Qilan, attentively studying his face.

His expression and gaze were very gentle, showing no signs of anger. She speculated if he had discovered her absence after returning to their room, and guided by this thought, he had stayed awake all night waiting for her. It must have been two hours.

By normal standards, anyone would be upset. Why wasn’t Ye Qilan angry at all?

It seemed as if waiting up for her in the middle of the night for two hours was a matter of course for him.

“I met third brother. He wanted to chat, so I went,” Su Hongxing replied, her gaze never straying from Ye Qilan’s face.

She noticed that Ye Qilan’s expression had not changed at all.

Everyone said she was inscrutable, but wasn’t Ye Qilan the same? He always looked harmless and unfathomable.

“You met Ye Xiandong?” Ye Qilan paused for a moment before adding, “My third brother is quite charming. Be careful not to fall for him.”

Just as he was about to lay down, Su Hongxing suddenly leaned very close to him, he narrowed his eyes, “What are you doing?!”

Su Hongxing just wanted to verify if Ye Xiandong was lying, so she deliberately leaned close to Ye Qilan.

Although Ye Qilan’s expression did not change, the sudden tenseness of his muscles showed that he did not like her getting too close to him.

“I suddenly realized that you are very handsome,” Su Hongxing said, pressing a quick kiss to Ye Qilan’s face.

Caught off guard, Ye Qilan found himself kissed out of the blue, his instinctive reaction was to rub away the trace of saliva on his face.

This scene made Su Hongxing want to laugh, and indeed, she laughed.

With a glance from the corner of his eye, Ye Qilan observed, “You’re laughing!”

“There are still two hours till dawn. Let’s sleep,” Su Hongxing said, curtailing her smile. She turned around, her back facing Ye Qilan, and drifted off to sleep quickly.

Only Ye Qilan was left staring at Su Hongxing’s back. He touched his face, where there seemed to be a lingering trace of Su Hongxing’s kiss.

He’d never liked being touched by others, but when her lips touched his, it was somewhat within his comfort zone.

In the morning, Su Hongxing was woken up by growing noises from outside before she fully woke up.

She opened her sleepy eyes and locked gazes with Ye Qilan’s perfect features. She couldn’t help but think that being able to sleep next to a stunningly handsome man for a lifetime would indeed be a beautiful thing.

During her momentary daze, the door to their bedroom was forcefully kicked open.

A fiery beauty rushed in. She wore a tight red dress which showcased her splendid figure, particularly her ample chest.

The beauty had captivating features, her face was exquisitely stunning, and her eyes, like a wildcat’s, were exceptionally enticing.

“Ugly woman, what right do you have to be in Qilan’s bed? Get out of his bed now!” The beauty, blinded by jealousy, made a beeline for the bed and was about to drag Su Hongxing off it.

But Su Hongxing grabbed on to Ye Qilan’s arm.

If this man’s past came calling to wreck havoc, she would ensure that he faced the consequences with her.

Ye Qilan hadn’t slept well the previous night, he glanced at the beauty and ordered in a slow tone, “Yan Zi, don’t disturb my sleep.. Leave now and don’t forget to close the door!”
