Chapter 1540: Chapter 1540: Tit for Tat (4)
"But she’s pregnant with Ye Shiqing’s child. Can you tolerate Ye Shiqing’s child? Why can’t you just let Xiaoqiao go free? Don’t forget, you also have an illegitimate child outside. Even if Xiaoqiao is pregnant with Ye Shiqing’s child, at most it’s just tit for tat!" Su Hongxing’s words were sharp, piercing with every sentence.
Ye Xiandong’s face turned pale, and he clenched his fists tightly: "Tit for tat, well said. I was the one who wronged her first. I’m slowly repaying my debt to her, and I have a lifetime to make it up to her. That’s my thought. I never thought about divorcing Xiaoqiao. If she wants to remarry, it’s not going to happen! You can pass my words to her. That’s my thought."
After he finished talking, he went forward, opened the office door, and issued an expulsion order: "Su Hongxing, please!"
Su Hongxing walked to the door, turned back, and asked, "Ye Xiandong, have you fallen for Xiaoqiao?"
Ye Xiandong said nothing, just pushed her out of the office and slammed the door shut. Even so, she saw the pain in Ye Xiandong’s eyes.
If it was just speculation before, she now probably understood that Ye Xiandong developed feelings for Qiao Qiao, which was why he didn’t want to divorce her and could endure such a humiliation.
Ye Qilan saw Su Hongxing looking troubled and didn’t ask much.
It wasn’t until they got in the car that Su Hongxing gradually regained her composure and asked, "Why do men only understand the need to cherish after losing?!"
Ye Qilan was like that, and so was Ye Xiandong. But when they wanted to turn back, the people they wanted were no longer waiting for them.
"Wife, I..." Ye Qilan thought Su Hongxing was blaming him and didn’t know how to respond.
He always wanted to cherish her, but in the end, he hurt her. His way of loving her was wrong, which caused them both so much suffering.
"Forget it, it’s useless to ask you." Seeing Ye Qilan’s sad expression, Su Hongxing realized he misunderstood: "I was talking about Ye Xiandong. I tested him just now, and he seems to like Xiaoqiao, that’s why he’s unwilling to divorce her. I even feel like he’s willing to tolerate the child in Xiaoqiao’s belly to keep her."
Doesn’t this mean that Ye Xiandong’s feelings for Xiaoqiao are more than just a little bit?
When a person is willing to continuously compromise and endure for another, doesn’t it mean they’ve already fallen?
"Third brother liking Xiaoqiao, how is that possible?" Ye Qilan found it incredible.
"Ye Xiandong knows about Xiaoqiao’s pregnancy with Ye Shiqing’s child, yet he doesn’t mention it. He even said Xiaoqiao wants to remarry, but it’s not going to happen. His liking for Xiaoqiao can’t be fake. Otherwise, such an arrogant and conceited man wouldn’t be so forbearing." Su Hongxing said firmly.
This reminded her of when Ye Xiandong suspected Xiaoqiao was pregnant last time. Back then, Ye Xiandong made it public in an attempt to ruin Xiaoqiao. This time, it was the opposite. Ye Xiandong didn’t mention the child, didn’t stir up trouble, just simply didn’t want to divorce Xiaoqiao.
Doesn’t Ye Xiandong’s attitude indicate he has true feelings for Xiaoqiao?
Ye Qilan remained silent, feeling that things were getting more and more complicated.
Su Hongxing suddenly asked, "Ye Qilan, if one day I cheated..."
Seeing the fury flash in Ye Qilan’s eyes, she quickly followed with, "I’m just giving an example. Suppose I cheated, you..."
"No need to ask, I would kill you and then kill myself."
