My Ex-Husband Is Proposing Again

“Can we just keep Cao Shiyu and remove all the other women?” Ye Qilan asked Su Hongxing for her opinion.

Su Hongxing nestled into Ye Qilan’s arms, her eyes, which were usually cold, softened: “Isn’t it possible to drive away Cao Shiyu as well?”

Ye Qilan truly was incorrigible. He simply could neither comprehend nor show love.

Even if he grew up in a chaotic environment, even if he had been diagnosed with so-called emotional deficiency disorder, none of these were excuses for him to support a mistress while having a wife.

“Hongxing, if she leaves, 1 fear 1 might regret it. You don’t understand, when I see her smile, it feels so comforting, it gives me a sense of familiarity, as if I’ve known her for a long period of time….,”

It was the first time Ye Qilan had ever explained this matter to anyone.

Cao Shiyu’s smile gave him an utterly relatable feeling that was impossible to describe in mere words.

In fact, Su Hongxing’s smile also gave him the same overwhelming sensation. It was a shame, though, that she seldom smiled.

Thinking about this, Ye Qilan gently pushed Su Hongxing out of his embrace: “Hongxing, let me see you smile.”

He wanted to find out, if the smile of Su Hongxing was identical to that of Cao Shiyu’s.

Su Hongxing shook her head: “1 don’t love to smile, I really can’t do it.”

What a joke, knowing that Ye Qilan liked to see people smile, why would she seek this doom? Even if it killed her, she wouldn’t smile!

“Since you like to see Cao Shiyu smile so much, then keep her, I won’t make it difficult for you. If you can cut ties with any other women, just do it, otherwise, take your time, I’m willing to give you time,” Su Hongxing said, trying to steer the conversation to seem sensible.

Cao Shiyu was the spark that triggered their divorce, this woman had to stay in any case

Since they had reached an agreement, their conversation ended on a pleasant note.

That same night, Ye Qilan evicted all four women, including Du Qingyu from his villa, leaving only Cao Shiyu.

Before leaving, Du Qingyu pulled Cao Shiyu to the side and spoke to her in private. She told her to bear with it, avoid any conflicts with Su Hongxing, and smile more at Ye Qilan.

She also pointed out that Cao Shiyu was destined to cause Ye Qilan’s downfall, and sooner or later she would usurp Su Hongxing from her position as a young Madam.

In contrast, Beichuan’s sleep was getting worse. As soon as he closed his eyes, he would descend into a dream filled with confusion and chaos.

In the dream, Su Hongxing was his girlfriend. One moment, he was taking her to a social gathering, the next scene changed to Su Hongxing and Ye Qilan acting intimately.

The dream felt so long, seemingly never-ending. At the end of the dream, both he and Su Hongxing drowned in an endless sea of blood

Beichuan suddenly sat up, staring blankly out of the window.

Daybreak had arrived, the sunlight poured down through the glass window, spreading out fine specks of golden light, accompanied by the fluttering of the curtains in the breeze, providing a comforting warmth.

This warm morning contrasted starkly with the dark dreams he had the night before.

In the following few days, Beichuan loved to sleep more than anything. Because whenever he slept, he would dream of many things. The dreams initially were scattered fragments, but later they connected together, and then he became more convinced that these were events from his past life with Su Hongxing.

Apart from sleeping, he spent the rest of his time looking for Su Hongxing.

But he found out that this woman was as slippery as a fish, each time he thought he had her within his grasp, she evaded him again..
