Chapter 1008: Chapter 1008: Making an Appearance in Full Makeup, Secret Past (8) Chapter 1008: Chapter 1008: Making an Appearance in Full Makeup, Secret Past (8) Over the next two days, Ye Qilan was resting at ho, and Su Hongxing accompanied her. They also opened up a piece of land in Apricot Forest, and planted so green onions and garlic.
Su Hongxing glanced at Ye Qilan, feeling sowhat dazed. Sotis she felt that the current Ye Qilan was like an old married couple with her, with life being plain yet warm—just the kind she had longed for.
For soone as patriarchal as Ye Qilan, he had never even entered the kitchen before, let alone join her in digging and gardening.
But observing his graceful deanor made her feel that she could never see through this man.
Ye Qilan helped Su Hongxing clean the mud off her hands, speaking softly, “Don’t do such strenuous tasks anymore. Look at your hands, they’re all muddy under the nails.”
How could such beautiful hands be used for farming?
Worried he would nag her, Su Hongxing just responded and wiped her hands dry.
Ye Qilan noticed Su Hongxing was wearing thin clothes, and her coat was laying on the couch; he casually picked it up.
When a business card fell to the floor, he picked it up and glanced at it casually before his gaze fixed on it.
When Su Hongxing ca out, she saw Ye Qilan staring absent-mindedly at the business card.
She moved closer, then laughed, “Lin Zhi is soone I bumped into the day I bought dicine for you. It was a case of ‘no fighting, no knowing’. She said her husband is the owner of Jinxiu Restaurant…”
Seeing Ye Qilan’s grave expression, Su Hongxing’s voice faded, “What’s wrong?”
Ye Qilan snapped back to reality with a complex look in his eyes as he gazed at Su Hongxing, “Did she say anything to you?”
“No, just so small talk. She said she’s from Taicheng, and also, it seems her husband is very nervous about her, kept watching closely even though she had only been out for a short while. I think her husband’s possessiveness is quite similar to yours,” Su Hongxing looked perplexedly at Ye Qilan, “What’s with that expression? Or do you know Lin Zhi?”
Ye Qilan took a deep breath, unsure of how to start.
Seeing his hesitant look, Su Hongxing knew he definitely knew Lin Zhi.
“Just say it. Surely she isn’t another one of your old flings?” Su Hongxing joked.
Ye Qilan was dumbfounded by Su Hongxing, “What exactly is going through your mind?”
He lightly flicked Su Hongxing’s forehead, “Lin Zhi, of course I know her, and so does the Ye Family. It’s precisely because of her that my elder brother beca estranged from the Ye Family…”
With this explanation from Ye Qilan, Su Hongxing suddenly understood, “I get it now, Lin Zhi is Ye Zheng’s wife, right? I think she’s quite nice. Why would the Ye Family oppose her marrying Ye Zheng?”
She had a good impression of Lin Zhi. Lin Zhi had a great deanor and was not lacking in sophistication. Why would such a woman not be suitable for Ye Zheng?
“You don’t know how much you don’t know,” Ye Qilan scoffed softly.
“How would I know if you don’t tell ?” Su Hongxing’s curiosity was piqued by Ye Qilan.
Ye Qilan looked at her, seemingly unwilling to elaborate further. Su Hongxing blocked his way, “Are you going to talk or not? If not, you are not allowed in my room tonight.”
Ye Qilan looked at Su Hongxing, amused yet exasperated, as she raised an eyebrow at him, “I’m not joking. If you don’t explain what’s going on, you are not climbing into bed tonight!”
Ye Qilan thought to himself, even if he climbed into her bed, he couldn’t touch her, so what difference did it make whether he climbed up or not?
Eventually, worn out by Su Hongxing’s persistence, Ye Qilan revealed one of the reasons why a mber of the Ye Family objected: “Grandfather was strongly against it, because Lin Zhi is twelve years older than Ye Zheng!”
