Chapter 268: Chapter 268: First World Extra Story: Hard to Guard the Wife_1

“Honey, I made a mistake. Why don’t you come out and punish me by making me kneel on the keyboard?” Ye Qilan knocked hard on the door, but there was no response from inside.

Su Hongxing in the room remained silent.

After waiting at home until nine o’clock, a call from company came, they needed him to chair a meeting.

“Honey, I have to go to work now, I’ll make it up to you tonight!” Ye Qilan said, and then left the house.

Su Hongxing hid inside, a sense of disappointment washed over her as she heard his footsteps recede.

Before they got married, she was sure she mattered more to him than his work, but now her position in his heart seemed to be diminishing…

Stuck in a traffic jam in the morning, Ye Qilan found himself worrying about Su Hongxing.

He knew he had neglected Su Hongxing due to his work, but his goal was to grow the company to its maximum potential, constantly enhancing his own strength.

The Ye Family’s environment gave him no room to relax. Progress was necessary, and he knew that to protect the people he cared about, he had to become strong enough to face any challenge.

Beichuan has always been overtly interested in Su Hongxing, as has Xiao Ji.

Add to that, the Ye Family members’ dislike for Su Hongxing and their constant criticism of her, he just felt worn out dealing with it all.

Currently, it’s precisely because he is not powerful enough, that he has to curry favor with the old man from the Ye Family.

On one hand he had to fend off the Ye Family members, on the other, he had to prevent other men with ulterior motives from approaching Su Hongxing.

That’s why, after their wedding, he deliberately let Su Hongxing gain weight and lose her looks, in hopes that Xiao Ji and Beichuan would shift their focus.

Being alert of potential risks is an essential survival rule for anyone in the Ye Family.

He understood deeply that he needed to have enough strength to protect both himself and his woman.

On the other hand, Beichuan had nothing to do, and since Ye Qilan couldn’t play around with him, he went to see Ye Xiandong.

As the two of them chatted, the topic somehow shifted to women.

It was Ye Xiandong who started the conversation.

When it came to women, Beichuan spoke animatedly.

“Weren’t you interested in Su Hongxing before? What about now?” Ye Xiandong suddenly asked.

Beichuan was taken aback, “She’s Qilan’s woman, how could I possibly harbor any feelings for her now?”

One mustn’t covet a friend’s wife. After all, Su Hongxing wasn’t a woman to but taken lightly.

“Are you sure?”

Ye Xiandong’s words irked Beichuan, “What do you mean by that? Are you implying that I’m still longing for a fat and unattractive married woman?!”

“Don’t put on an act in front of me. The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. Don’t tell me you haven’t fantasized about her.” Ye Xiandong poured Beichuan a drink.

Under Ye Xiandong’s stare, Beichuan finally gave in, “Yes, I still think of her. But she’s married now, and she’s Qilan’s wife. I can only fantasize…”

Maybe it’s because he couldn’t have her that he couldn’t let go.

“If you really want her that much, I do have a plan.” Ye Xiandong smirked, his eyes brimmed with calculations.

“Really?!” Beichuan’s eyes lit up.

Ye Xiandong’s smile deepened, making Beichuan’s scalp itch…

Su Hongxing had been napping most of the day due to lack of sleep. At a little past three in the afternoon, she received an anonymous email.

Her complexion turned sour as she opened the email and saw the pictures inside.

The images showed Ye Qilan and Cao Shiyu lying together on a bed, Ye Qilan’s face was clearly visible. The timestamp showed it was three months ago.

She couldn’t bring herself to see more after the first one, and she closed both the email and her computer.
