Chapter 382: Chapter 382: Holding an Engagement Banquet_1

“Seems so.” Ye Qilan paused a moment before adding, “After you’re done with our child’s sweater, can you knit one for me when you have time? Just take it as a parting gift for me.”

Su Hongxing was hesitant to agree. She didn’t even know if she could finish this one successfully.

She didn’t want to make promises that she couldn’t keep.

“This is my last request, won’t you agree to this?” Ye Qilan stood up, looking down at Su Hongxing from above.

Seeing Ye Qilan like this, Su Hongxing eventually nodded, “Alright, I’ll try my best.”

“I’ll take that as a yes. Once you finish my sweater, you can leave whenever you want, go wherever you want.”

Just as long as she never appears in front of him again.

He feared that if she appeared again, he wouldn’t want to let go of her, would trap her, forever out of the sun’s reach.

Su Hongxing pursed her lips in a smile, but did not confirm nor deny.

The future was uncertain; living well in the present was the most practical.

Before Ye Qilan left, he stood at the door and couldn’t help but look back, wanting to know if Su Hongxing would give him one last glance. Maybe she did have some lingering affection for him.

Su Hongxing was still sitting under the warm sun, her skin was fair, translucent as jade, her eyelashes curled. Maybe it was the sunlight that made her skin seem unnaturally pale, and her lips were also unusually light in color.

Yet, as she sat there quietly, she was as beautiful as a painting.

A painting with her, but without him.

Ye Qilan closed the door, blocking the woman inside from his sight.

Liu Qingyin turned her head at the sound of the door closing. She saw him, but remained expressionless.

Ye Qilan stared blankly at Liu Qingyin and found that she was very similar to Su Hongxing. They were similar when they smiled, and even now, their indifferent expressions were the same.

“Take good care of her.” Before leaving, Ye Qilan dropped this sentence and left. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

The next morning, Ye’s father accepted media interviews, indicating that the Ye and Mo families indeed wanted to marry. For safety’s sake and due to the urgency of time, they decided to hold a simple engagement banquet this Saturday…

Cao Shiyu went crazy when she saw this news, wanting to find Ye Qilan to confirm if it was true.

However, Ye Qilan avoided her and disappeared without a trace despite her hiring a private investigator to follow him.

She returned home in despair, begging Cao Zhen, but he seemed uneasy and distracted, seemingly oblivious to her words.

“Dad, are you even listening to me? Ye Qilan was supposed to be my man, just recently, he was going to marry into the Cao family, and now he quickly got involved with Mo Qiu, isn’t this a slap in the face for our Cao family? Just because of that slut Mo…”

“Shiyu, you’re a well-brought-up young lady, how can you talk like this? No wonder Ye Qilan abandoned you, no decent man can tolerate a woman who calls other women sluts.” Cao Zhen interrupted Cao Shiyu, looking disappointed, “If you continue like this, I will only have to send you abroad, for you to know that life is not that easy.”

He had neglected this family, had not disciplined Shiyu properly, and that was why she had become so harsh and bitter.

“Dad, I am not going abroad. I want to marry…”

Guan Ya stood beside Cao Shiyu and said quietly, “I agree with your father’s decision. If you continue like this, you will only ruin yourself. You are still young and shouldn’t spend all your emotions on a man who doesn’t love you.”
