Chapter 1371: Chapter 1371: He is a Fake (3)

Su Hongxing said a few more comforting words to Xiao Ji, then turned to Jiang Su: “Take good care of Xiao Ji. I’ll come back to see him tomorrow.”

“Weren’t you planning to stay and take care of Xiao Ji, Sis?” Jiang Su looked a bit surprised when he saw Su Hongxing preparing to leave.

“I’m worried about the two kids. I’ll head back tonight and come back to visit tomorrow.” Su Hongxing glanced at Xiao Ji again, then left without turning back.

The person she was truly worried about was Ye Qilan. Earlier, he had stormed off in a fit of rage, and she feared he might do something reckless.

Rather than staying here in constant worry, it was better to go home and check.

When Su Hongxing returned to Qingmu Garden, she inquired with the servants and learned that Ye Qilan had not come back.

Qiao Qiao noticed Su Hongxing looking anxious and pulled her to sit down: “You and Ye Qilan didn’t get into another argument, did you?”

Su Hongxing recounted the conflict between her and Ye Qilan. “He’s so extreme. I’m afraid he might take it out on innocent people.”

“Don’t panic yet. Ask Age to find out for you.” Qiao Qiao’s suggestion reminded Su Hongxing about Age.

She sought out Age and discovered after asking that Ye Qilan had made a phone call. He intended to attend a dinner party tonight and might be back late.

“Are you certain he’s attending a dinner party?” Su Hongxing was still uneasy, fearing Ye Qilan might secretly harm Xiao Ji.

“Madam, rest assured. Sir has no intentions of dealing with Xiao Ji anymore, so Xiao Ji is safe. As for whether Sir is truly at a dinner party, I cannot confirm that.” Age spoke his piece plainly.

Su Hongxing immediately picked up on the deeper meaning in Age’s words. He was blaming her for hurting Ye Qilan’s feelings.

Little Baozi, unusually not asleep, chirped excitedly the moment Su Hongxing picked him up.

“His crying sounds so awful.” Little Pudding seemed a bit jealous as he watched Su Hongxing hold Little Baozi.

Su Hongxing looked at Little Pudding: “You used to cry exactly like that when you were little.”

Little Pudding instantly fell silent and poked Little Baozi’s cheek. “Mom, did I look like this when I was little too?”

“Yes, you were gorgeous when you were little. Of course, you’re still gorgeous now.”

Su Hongxing’s words made Little Pudding beam with a wide grin. “It’s because I take after Mom. Mom is beautiful, so I’m beautiful too!”

Su Hongxing couldn’t help but laugh at his words. If only her life could be a bit simpler, how wonderful that would be.

She truly wasn’t an ambitious person. Back when she and Xiao Ji were childhood sweethearts, she simply imagined marrying him after graduation and living a blissful and happy life.

But the many upheavals that followed caught her completely off guard.

She didn’t want things to get more complicated. Perhaps it was just the impact of the email making her overthink.

That night, she stayed up until one in the morning but still didn’t see Ye Qilan return. She realized then that he likely wouldn’t be coming back.

This time, did she drive him to madness again? He had always had a bad temper. Every time they fought, she would have to coax him carefully before he begrudgingly reconciled with her.

Of course, after every fight, once they made up, Ye Qilan would treat her even better than before. He was aware of his bad temper and had some self-awareness about it.

Su Hongxing wasn’t sure when she drifted off to sleep, but when she woke, the sun had already risen.

As she went downstairs, the smell of delicious food wafted from the kitchen. She hurried to the kitchen door.

Seeing Ye Qilan busy inside, she was momentarily stunned.

Ye Qilan heard footsteps and turned around. When he saw Su Hongxing, he flashed a charming smile: “Almost done. With my persistent effort, I believe my cooking skills will keep improving!”
