Chapter 1426: Chapter 1426: Acting Goes Live (4)
“I actually think that Mr. Ding and Su Hongxing have a great relationship, so good that it seems no one can co between them,” Du Qingyu said, letting out a soft laugh.
Assistant Luo didn’t understand what Du Qingyu was laughing about, so he could only echo her sentint. Even after putting Du Qingyu into the car, he was still debating whether he should butter up Su Hongxing, the wife of the president—after all, it was crucial not to pick the wrong side…
After Du Qingyu left, Su Hongxing said to Ye Qilan, “I suspect Du Qingyu has found out about our plan. I don’t know how she got wind of it, but I think we’ve both underestimated her.”
If that were true, then while they were putting on their act, soone else had been watching the show. The feeling was thoroughly unsettling.
“I just can’t figure out how she knew the two of us are pretending to be at odds,” Ye Qilan said, his face darkening.
“Have you ntioned this to Ye Shiqing?” Su Hongxing asked.
Perhaps Ye Qilan inadvertently brought it up to Ye Shiqing, who then ntioned it to soone else, allowing the secret to spread.
“I’ve never ntioned it to him. Aside from you, no one knows I’m deliberately getting close to Du Qingyu,” Ye Qilan replied firmly.
Seeing the certainty in his expression, Su Hongxing couldn’t help but chuckle. “Let’s set aside what we can’t figure out for now. Since Du Qingyu has backed off, we’ll use another approach to provoke her. Going forward, let’s openly flaunt our love until she can’t stand it anymore. By the way, could there be a bugging device installed here?”
Perhaps Ye Qilan’s phone had been bugged, leading to her conversations with him being intercepted and consequently alerting Du Qingyu.
“It’s not just the office—we’ve ensured both our phones haven’t been monitored. She couldn’t have learned anything from ,” Ye Qilan said.
The more Su Hongxing dwelled on it, the more unsettling it felt. Then she rembered another reason she’d co here: “I ca to ask if you could assign more people to track down Ye Shiqing’s whereabouts. Ye Shiqing likely has many allies. If he’s taken Xiaoqiao away, he’ll need to find a place to settle her.”
Ye Qilan had extensive connections—he was undoubtedly the right person for the job.
“I’ve already sent people to investigate. Be patient; maybe there’ll be updates soon,” Ye Qilan said as he pulled Su Hongxing down to sit beside him. “Your matters are my matters. Your friends are my friends. I won’t take this lightly.”
Ye Shiqing was, after all, his second brother. If anything happened to Qiao Qiao, Su Hongxing would likely direct her anger at him.
“What I’m worried about is that Ye Shiqing is resolute in his intentions. If we don’t find Xiaoqiao soon, it might be too late. You know, before Ye Shiqing left Qingmu Garden yesterday, he hinted at his plan—he took Xiaoqiao because he intends to make her bear his child. He thinks that if Xiaoqiao becos pregnant with his child, she’ll be devoted to him. But Xiaoqiao isn’t even divorced yet. If she really ends up pregnant, she won’t be able to face anyone in the future,” Su Hongxing said, her face clouded with worry. “She’s my only close friend—I can’t even begin to imagine such a thing happening to her.”
Ye Qilan lightly patted Su Hongxing on the shoulder. “Don’t worry; maybe things aren’t as bad as they seem.”
Su Hongxing shook her head. “I have a bad feeling about this. This ti, it seems Xiaoqiao won’t be able to escape.”
Seeing Su Hongxing’s distress and sadness, Ye Qilan felt troubled as well. He swore under his breath. “I’ve always said Ye Shiqing is a bastard. When I was in trouble, he wouldn’t help you. Now that we’ve finally reconciled, he’s here to sabotage our relationship again. All he ever does is hold back!”
