My Ex-Husband Is Proposing Again-Chapter 713 - A Tangled Mind_1
Chapter 713: Chapter 713: A Tangled Mind_1 Chapter 713 -713: A Tangled Mind_1 Su Hongxing hears Little Pudding calling for his parents and feels a tad heartbroken. She says to Ye Qilan, “Is it okay to leave Little Pudding with Fu Yan? He wants time alone with Qingyin.”
“I remember you not being so fond of Fu Yan being close to Qingyin. How did that change so quickly?” Ye Qilan asked, puzzled.
“I still don’t like it now. But currently, Fu Yan is the only man Qingyin knows. She must move on from her past before we can introduce her to other suitors. She’s still young.” Su Hongxing got into the car and was about to buckle her seatbelt.
Ye Qilan, however, beats her to it, buckling the seatbelt for her. His main intention, of course, was to seize the opportunity to get close to her. That was the only way to heal her illness quickly.
Su Hongxing stared at the male face close before her, held her breath, and asked, “May I drive now?”
Does it really take this long to fasten a seatbelt? This man clearly had bad intentions and was openly trying to play with her.
Ye Qilan stared ardently at Su Hongxing. She wanted to tilt her head back to avoid him, but due to their proximity, she couldn’t escape him.
Ye Qilan slowly leaned into Su Hongxing, his voice husky and low, “It’s been 2260 hours since I last kissed you…”
As soon as he finished his sentence, his lips descended onto hers, lightly brushing against them.
He could feel that Su Hongxing had responded. But just as he started drifting, Su Hongxing suddenly pushed him away, “Didn’t you say we were going to watch a movie? Let’s get going, so we can get home early.”
As she responded, she looked straight ahead without being sidetracked. But her tightly pursed lips revealed the tension of her current state.
She was certain that she was resisting Ye Qilan. At the same time, she seemed unable to refuse him. Perhaps it was because of the charm of Ye Qilan’s face?
This left her feeling utterly chaotic and confused.
She didn’t know if this was a good thing or not.
If this could cure her sickness, did it mean she could recover fully?
After comforting herself, she managed to calm down.
“What a killjoy you are.” Ye Qilan chuckled with eyes gleaming.
No matter. Slowly but surely, he would be able to get her to lower her guard against him. Although he didn’t know how long that would take, he was confident he would eventually earn her acceptance.
During the movie, Ye Qilan had a tight grip on Su Hongxing’s hand.
He originally envisioned this wonderful evening to last until the end of the movie, only for Su Hongxing’s phone to ring.
He sneakily peeked at the caller’s ID, it was Xiao Ji.
Su Hongxing was also taken aback. Recently, Xiao Ji rarely contacted her. The last time he called was a month ago.
She answered Xiao Ji’s call, on the other end was Xiao Ji’s anxious voice. “Xingxing, are you free tonight? My mom’s not feeling well and she’s home alone. I’m held up at dinner and can’t get away. Could you look after her this evening?”
“Why didn’t you call me earlier?” Upon hearing that Xiao Ji’s mother was ill, Su Hongxing became very worried.
“She had a light cold yesterday but she said she was fine, so I let her be. The housemaid called me a while ago, and said that my mom was running a fever, so I had no choice but to ask for your help.”

“Alright, I’m on my way.” Su Hongxing hung up the call after she said that.
Ye Qilan had heard the whole conversation early on. Despite his resentment, he couldn’t be so disrespectful to ask Su Hongxing not to care for Xiao Ji’s mother at this time.
Not because he was petty. Although Xiao Ji was visibly using his ill mother to get close to Su Hongxing, he was perfectly discreet in his methods.
