Chapter 543: Chapter 0543: Do You Know?
In the lobby, passersby seemed to have forgotten the two of them, as if they were invisible!
In each other’s eyes, there was only the other, nothing else mattered!
In a trance, Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi found themselves back at that tender age.
Back then, her heart had room for only him, and his eyes saw only her!
Ye Xunhuan seemed to see again the girl with the ponytail, her face full of worry and tension every time she found out he had been fighting, and he could almost hear the scolding yet tender voice at his ear.
"Ye Xunhuan, why did you go fighting again, don’t you know it’s dangerous, don’t you realize it’s wrong to do that..."
"Ye Xunhuan, what about the promise you made last time, you said you wouldn’t fight, why did you go and fight again..."
The familiar face, the gentle scolding, all flashed through Ye Xunhuan’s mind like scenes from a movie.
Everything seemed like it happened just yesterday.
The two of them gazed at each other, forgetting the time, forgetting the place.
After who knows how long, Ye Xunhuan slowly returned from his memories to reality.
Looking at that familiar face, Ye Xunhuan’s heart was filled with bitterness. He had killed Mu Tiange, and she had become a widow!
But he also knew that the relationship between Mu Tiange and Su Guyan had been very poor, and her heart, like his, had always been clinging to him, unable to forget.
After all, when Qianhuan Lanqin had called Mu Tiange, the speaker was on.
Everything Mu Tiange had said, Ye Xunhuan heard every word clearly.
In that moment, he knew that the marital relationship between Su Guyan and Mu Tiange was poor, and it could even be possible that his presence had caused it.
Now seeing Su Guyan here, Ye Xunhuan was even more certain of his speculation.
No matter how bad their relationship was, they were still husband and wife, but he had killed Mu Tiange, and he had made her a widow, an irrefutable fact.
Without Mu Tiange, would her life still be good?
Would anyone in Mu’s family bully her?
For a moment, Ye Xunhuan’s heart was filled with guilt towards Su Guyan.
If time could be reversed, giving him another chance to choose, he would still kill Mu Tiange.
Though it might put Su Guyan in danger, he had no choice. He couldn’t just watch Mu Tiange repeatedly plotting against him and harming those around him!
He wanted everything to be perfect, but it was simply not possible.
He could only apologize to Su Guyan.
Taking a deep breath in secret, Ye Xunhuan walked towards Su Guyan and squeezed out a forced smile on his face, "Didn’t you leave, when did you come back?"
"Came back last night," Su Guyan didn’t tell Ye Xunhuan the truth.
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to, but she was afraid. She feared that if Ye Xunhuan knew she had deceived him, he would be angry, so she had to pile one lie upon another to cover up the previous lies.
Hearing Su Guyan’s words, Ye Xunhuan shuddered from head to toe and his face took on a strange expression.
She came back last night, could it be that Mu Tiange had called her, and she went to see Mu Tiange?
Had she seen the gruesome scene of Mu Tiange’s death, had she witnessed that hellish sight?
For a moment, countless thoughts raced through Ye Xunhuan’s mind.
He wanted to ask, but when the words reached his lips, he couldn’t speak them, as if something was stuck in his throat.
"You..."
"You..."
Both of them started speaking at the same time, but then, as if they had agreed upon it, they stopped together.
"You go first!"
"You go first!"
Again, they spoke at the same time, showing a perfect understanding.
As their voices faded, they looked at each other and smiled.
Su Guyan didn’t speak, instead gazing at Ye Xunhuan, as if waiting for Ye Xunhuan to speak.
Under Su Guyan’s gaze, Ye Xunhuan slowly said, "Let’s find a place to sit, I’ll treat you to coffee!"
"Okay!"
Afterward, Ye Xunhuan and Su Guyan left the Huangtu Group, and at the moment they departed, Qiu Ruoxi suddenly emerged from the elevator, capturing the retreating figures of Ye Xunhuan and Su Guyan in her sight.
Upon seeing this scene, Qiu Ruoxi felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her delicate body trembling slightly, her face turning pale instantly, her fists clenched unconsciously, even her thin red lips tightly closed together at that moment.
Guo Lina, who had walked out of the elevator with Qiu Ruoxi, immediately sensed Qiu Ruoxi’s change and couldn’t help saying, "President, are you alright?"
Hearing Guo Lina’s words, Qiu Ruoxi shook her head and said, "I’m fine, let’s go!"
"President, you don’t look well, perhaps you should go back, and I can check it out alone, if not..."
"I’m fine!"
Hearing Qiu Ruoxi say this again, Guo Lina, although curious about what exactly was going on with Qiu Ruoxi, did not dare to ask.
After all, this was her boss; asking about her boss’s private matters wasn’t inviting trouble on herself?
After leaving the Huangtu Group, Qiu Ruoxi and Guo Lina sat in the car, unable to calm down at all, their minds filled with the image of Ye Xunhuan and Su Guyan leaving the Huangtu Group together.
What was Su Guyan here for?
What were they going to do?
Rekindling an old flame?
Qiu Ruoxi’s heart fluttered with unwarranted chaos, making her seem restless and extremely anxious.
Ye Xunhuan was unaware that the scene of him leaving Huangtu Group with Su Guyan had been witnessed by Qiu Ruoxi, let alone that it had left her unsettled.
At that moment, he was already at a cafe near the Huangtu Group with Su Guyan.
Perhaps because it was during office hours, the cafe was extremely quiet, with only a few customers scattered around.
Ye Xunhuan and Su Guyan were sitting at a table by the window, both silent.
Not knowing how much time had passed, Ye Xunhuan couldn’t help but ask, "How long will you be staying in Jiangzhong City this time?"
He wanted to directly ask Su Guyan if she knew that Mu Tiange was already dead, but when the words reached his lips, he couldn’t say them.
"I’m not sure, it depends on the circumstances!" Su Guyan serenely shook her head, looking at Ye Xunhuan and said, "But I might stay here for a while!"
Ye Xunhuan nodded and gently sipped the coffee in front of him.
"Why was your phone unreachable last night? I had thought about asking you to pick me up!" Su Guyan asked softly.
Hearing Su Guyan’s words, Ye Xunhuan’s heart leapt into his throat, he became nervous and lowered his head, not daring to look at Su Guyan!
Was she asking about Mu Tiange?
"Guyan... you... do you know that Mu Tiange has already died?"
