Du Qingyu and Su Hongxing sat under the shade and chatted for a while. Suddenly, she said, “Qilan is just unpredictable. After you married him, he still brought a woman home. This is too much.”

Su Hongxing glanced at Du Qingyu. When she saw the beauty smile, there were faint dimples flashing. It was very moving.

She subconsciously took a few more glances, but the expression on her face did not change because of Du Qingyu’s words.

“As for you, you have to understand Qilan more. He’s like this. He can’t change his habit of liking the new and hating the old. Perhaps this is a common problem among the men of the Ye family. Yanhong is also very fickle. Qilan’s fickleness is most likely inherited from him,” Du Qingyu said. Her smile faded, and her delicate face was tainted with a hint of worry.

Su Hongxing remained silent and did not express any thoughts.

Seeing her like this, Du Qingyu suddenly smiled again. “Miss Su’s personality is very stable.”

Su Hongxing raised her eyebrows slightly and replied indifferently, “It’s alright.”

Du Qingyu still wanted to say something, but when she looked up, she saw a tall man walking over. She fixed her gaze on him and smiled brightly under the light of the lamp.

“Qilan, are you so worried about Miss Su?”

Su Hongxing followed Du Qingyu’s gaze. Wasn’t that the male lead they were talking about earlier, Ye Qilan?

Ye Qilan’s gaze paused on Du Qingyu’s smiling face for a moment before he sat down beside Su Hongxing. “It’s her first time at home, so I’m a little worried.”

As he spoke, he held Su Hongxing’s hand and gently pressed it against his palm.

Su Hongxing didn’t say anything and remained silent.

“Where did you meet Miss Su? She’s an interesting person.” As Du Qingyu spoke, she suddenly leaned forward.

At this moment, her face was only an inch away from Ye Qilan.

If one looked from afar, they would probably think that this was a pair of lovers intertwining their necks.

Su Hongxing was close enough to see that Du Qingyu and Ye Qilan’s gazes were locked together. Du Qingyu’s alluring red lips were just a little bit away from touching Ye Qilan’s.

What was going on now?

Just as Su Hongxing was feeling confused, Du Qingyu suddenly sat up straight. There was a leaf in her hand. She smiled beautifully. “Qilan, were you frightened by me just now?”

Ye Qilan looked deeply at Du Qingyu. “I’m a bold person. No one can scare me easily. Xiaoyu, you don’t have the ability to scare people yet.”

When Su Hongxing heard how Ye Qilan addressed Du Qingyu, the corners of her lips curled up imperceptibly.

However, Ye Qilan noticed this small detail. He lifted Su Hongxing’s chin. “What made you so happy?”

Su Hongxing was a rigid woman who didn’t like to talk or smile. However, she had smiled just now.

Although the smile was very faint, he caught it.

Su Hongxing turned her head away and happened to avoid Ye Qilan’s hand that was grabbing her chin. When she turned around, she saw Du Qingyu’s complicated gaze.

Well, she thought, she roughly understood one thing. The relationship between Du Qingyu and Ye Qilan was not just that of a stepmother and stepson.

She had unintentionally smiled just now because she realized that she had peered into some secrets of the wealthy families and felt that it was a little ironic and ridiculous.

“Why aren’t you smiling again?” Ye Qilan held Su Hongxing’s hand again.

Those who did not know the inside story would probably think that Ye Qilan was possessive of Su Hongxing.

As for the truth, only Su Hongxing, the person involved, knew.
