Chapter 260: Chapter 260: The Status of a Wife 1
After leaving the hospital, Ye Qilan returned to his job.
Perhaps it was due to the conversation he had with Sheng Yalun, his mood had calmed down and he could now focus on his work.
By the time he finished, it was already sundown.
He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the entire city, seemingly standing high above all the bustling activity.
The sensation of looking down on everything gave him immense satisfaction.
He liked to have control over everything, just as he did at this moment.
There was a knock at the door, he turned back, it was the stunning Cao Shiyu.
He lightly raised his eyebrows, then turned back to enjoy the night view of the bustling city.
Cao Shiyu had gathered up her courage to come to the company because of a call from Sheng Yalun.
Sheng Yalun had told her to give Ye Qilan more warmth, to show more of the charming demeanor of a little woman. Sheng Yalun also said that Ye Qilan is actually not hard to appease.
So, she braved herself and came.
When she stood beside Ye Qilan, and looked up at him, he also cast a glance at her.
The glance lacked passion, but it did not convey any disdain either.
At that moment, she was thinking that even if Ye Qilan did not love her, it was fine as long as he gave her the status of his wife, gave her a chance to be close to him.
In the decades to come, she would be the person standing by his side, sharing his honor and disgrace.
“I was a bit worried about you, so I came over to check.” Cao Shiyu smiled at Ye Qilan softly.
Ye Qilan’s gaze fixed on her smiling face, he was momentarily in a daze.
He remembered the moment when he first saw a photograph of Cao Shiyu, he was captivated by her smile. For a period of time, he was insanely infatuated with her smile.
And now, although her smile was as charming as before, his heart remained calm.
“You can go.” Ye Qilan was the first to leave the office.
Cao Shiyu followed behind him, captivated by his back. This was a good sign, this time, he did not drive her away.
That was the case indeed, as long as Su Hongxing didn’t interfere, she had a chance.
Su Hongxing suddenly disappeared, this was the perfect time for her to seize the opportunity.
Hopefully, Su Hongxing never shows up again before she and Ye Qilan get married…
Meanwhile, at the Zhou Family.
“Madam, there’s a parcel for you.” A servant handed the parcel to Cao Meiyu after receiving it.
Cao Meiyu looked at the wooden box in front of her, “Wiry would there be a courier at this time? Are you sure they didn’t deliver this by mistake?”
“You may not know, madam, but many couriers work through the night now.” The servant replied with a smile.
Cao Meiyu gestured for the servant to open the box. She was quick to action and opened the box swiftly.
The sight of a person inside the box scared the servant to the point of falling to the ground.
Cao Meiyu was also startled, she couldn’t see the person’s face, but there was a strong smell of blood.
“Help… me…”
Just then, the person inside the box weakly called for help.
This time Cao Meiyu clearly heard, the voice belonged to her cousin. This cousin was normally up to no good, always gambling and often asking her for money when he ran out.
When the servant carried her cousin out of the box, she noticed his legs seemed to have been broken.
Cao Meiyu ordered her men to take her cousin to the hospital. She was frightened and then the servant handed her a CD.
The content of the CD was the process of her cousin being beaten up, which was extremely bloody.
The scene then changed and the focus was suddenly on Zhou Luhe. There were disturbing images of Zhou Luhe being harassed by a man…
Cao Meiyu was furious and dialed Zhou Luhe’s number.
