My Ex-Husband Is Proposing Again

“Come, I’ll take you somewhere,” Ye Qilan said, taking Su Hongxing’s hand with enthusiasm.

Su Hongxing followed him passively. They ran down a cobblestone path, crossed a covered corridor, and finally arrived in front of the greenhouse garden.

Ye Qilan opened the door, and what Su Hongxing saw was a sea of pale pink flowers – apricots blossoming at the peak of their bloom.

The apricot blossoms were lush and dazzling, with countless vibrant splotches brightening the scene. It was a beauty beyond description.

“Isn’t it beautiful?” Ye Qilan led the spellbound Su Hongxing inside.

Su Hongxing was completely enchanted by the mesmerizing sea of flowers. She stared blankly, unable to help but exclaim, “It’s so beautiful!”

“You are more beautiful than it,” Ye Qilan said, leading Su Hongxing by the hand and taking a full round through the greenhouse garden.

Su Hongxing noticed that only apricot flowers were grown in the greenhouse, which was a bit monotonous.

“Wiry not plant some other flowers to diversify the view a bit? That would be even more beautiful,” Su Hongxing suggested quietly.

She had never before found apricot flowers attractive. In fact, she even found them a bit repellent, as she always felt that her name was a bit tacky and not very pleasant to the ears.

However, Qiao Qiao had once told her, more than once, that her name was beautiful and so were her flowers.

And now, she suddenly found apricot blossoms appealing to her eyes.

“I only plant one flower, just as I only love one person.”

Those words from Ye Qilan left Su Hongxing silent. She lost her interest in admiring the flowers and mumbled, “We’ve seen the flowers. Let’s go.”

She left the greenhouse garden, wanting to put distance between her and Ye Qilan.

Yet Ye Qilan’s footsteps shadowed her. No matter how fast or slow she walked, he matched her pace, like playing a game with her.

She zigzagged and walked for about ten minutes, but discovered she could not exit the Apricot Garden.

With no other option, she turned back, only for Ye Qilan to block her path: “I want to tell you something…”

“I don’t want to know!” Su Hongxing interrupted him: “Nor do I want to hear.”

“Really?” Ye Qilan smiled: “You’ve never been a coward.”

“Don’t speak as if you know me so well!” Su Hongxing snapped, raising her voice.

Ye Qilan looked at her with a deep gaze: “Of course I know you. I know the exact day you first menstruated, I know when that bastard Xiao Ji kissed you- – ”

His gaze focused on her lips, rubbing them aggressively: “When I found out, I was so angry I wanted to devour your lips!”

Su Hongxing looked at Ye Qilan in surprise and confusion. It was not until her lips started to hurt that she jerked his hand away: “What, what do you mean?” “Brother Three brought you to the Apricot Garden before, didn’t he? Did he tell you some things?”

Su Hongxing nodded: “He said that fifteen years ago something happened to you, as if you became a different person. He also said that every year, when the apricot flowers start to bloom, you would disappear for a few days…”

The more she spoke, the paler her face became.

Considering everything, it seemed that the days when Ye Qilan disappeared every year might have been spent stalking her.

In her past life, she already knew that Ye Qilan was not normal; he was a bit of a creep, especially with his obsession that was strong enough to make people uneasy.

But in her current life, his desire for control seemed even stronger.

“The first time I saw you, you were just this small. So tiny and soft, just like a little rice ball, looking especially adorable. At that time, I was thinking that if we had a daughter in the future, she would definitely be just as soft and cute…”
