“But you can only marry one woman. I thought it would be me,” Yanzi replied in a choked voice.

After Ye Qilan finished gargling, he glanced at the depressed Yanzi. “You can find another man.”

After saying this, he left the bathroom.

Yanzi hugged his waist tightly from behind him. “I don’t want to do that. I only like Brother Qilan. Let’s not have that ugly woman, Su Hongxing, okay? She’s not cute at all, doesn’t like to smile, and is ugly. Why does Brother Qilan want to marry her?”

Ye Qilan liked sweet-looking women who liked to smile. Su Hongxing did not have such a trait at all. This was what she could not figure out.

Ye Qilan pushed Yanzi’s hand away and walked away gracefully.

The reason why Su Hongxing stood out from the five candidates was that her name made his eyes light up.

He didn’t even need to see if other women matched his taste to decide that his wife was Su Hongxing.

**

Yanzi knew that she could no longer pester Ye Qilan, so she targeted Su Hongxing.

She was a proud daughter of heaven. She had everything she wanted. There was only one thing she could not get, and that was Ye Qilan.

Since Su Hongxing had the guts to marry Ye Qilan, she would let Su Hongxing know that she had to pay the price for obtaining Ye Qilan.

After leaving the Ye family, Yanzi called Su Hongxing and asked her to go out for a while. She said that she had something to say to her.

Su Hongxing’s answer was to hang up.

Yanzi was so angry that her eyes turned red. She called again. “Su Hongxing, come out! Or are you afraid of me?!”

“Do you want to find someone to beat me up, or do you want to find a man to kill me?” Su Hongxing asked.

Yanzi choked for a moment because she had prepared both plans.

As long as Su Hongxing came out, she would teach this woman a lesson.

Unexpectedly, before she could make a move, Su Hongxing, that ugly monster, saw through her intentions.

Once again, Su Hongxing hung up before her.

“I heard that you’re looking for someone to harm Su Hongxing?!” Ye Qilan’s voice suddenly sounded behind her.

Yanzi was scared out of her wits. She turned to look at Ye Qilan and said with a dry smile, “N-nothing.”

“I received a call from Hei Zi ten minutes ago. The person you’re hiring happens to be one of his subordinates.” Ye Qilan slowly approached Yanzi.

His expression was still gentle, and his eyes were harmless, but Yanzi felt coldness seep out of his palm and reach her heart.

“Brother Qilan, I was just joking. I didn’t really want to do anything to Su Hongxing…”

Before Yanzi could finish speaking, she was brought into the car by Ye Qilan’s men.

Forty minutes later, she was taken to the top floor of an unfinished building.

Half of her body was suspended in the air. As long as the two people holding her let go, she would fall from such a high place.

Yanzi had never seen such a scene before. She was so frightened that she cried loudly. Her tears covered the exquisite makeup on her face. “Brother Qilan, I was wrong. I won’t dare to do it again. I-I’m afraid…”

She was afraid of death, but she was even more afraid of falling and becoming disabled.

How could Ye Qilan be so heartless? No matter what, they were childhood sweethearts and grew up together, right? Why did he use this method to force her to hate him?

Ye Qilan walked slowly to Yanzi’s side. He stood tall and graceful, looking gentle and harmless.

He glanced at the trembling Yanzi and said, “Do you know that only the dead won’t lie, let alone do bad things?”
