Chapter 923 -923: Treat Her Like a Wife
Ye Shiqing knew that in this matter, it was truly Qiao Qiao who had gotten the short end of the stick.
“Why wouldn’t she cling to him like other women would, never letting go once she had the opportunity?”
Calling her foolish was almost a compliment.
“Xiaoqiao, I know it’s my fault, can I take all the blame by myself?” Ye Shiqing gripped Qiao Qiao’s fist.
Qiao Qiao immediately withdrew her hand, keeping a distance from Ye Shiqing.
Ye Shiqing knew by her reaction that she hadn’t come to terms with it yet. Regardless, what had happened had happened. Given the situation now, she was bound to divorce Ye Xiandong as soon as possible.
Otherwise, considering her dawdling nature, it was questionable whether she could ever manage to divorce Ye Xiandong in this lifetime.
No matter who had facilitated the incident that night, he felt he would willingly jump into a pit of fire.
But he hadn’t expected that things would be far from simple. Of course, all that was to come later…
Ye Shiqing, after all, did understand Qiao Qiao’s temperament.
Right now, every time Qiao Qiao saw Ye Shiqing and remembered what had happened that night, she felt disgusted, eager to end her marriage with Ye Xiandong quickly, so that she wouldn’t feel so uncomfortable in her heart.
Now, whenever she closed her eyes, she felt like an adulteress, and what made it worse was that the man was her husband’s brother. No matter how she thought about it, it made her sick to her stomach. 𝚗𝚘v𝚙𝚞b.𝚌𝚘m
After returning to Taicheng, her first move was to call Ye Xiandong, arranging to meet him at the café at three in the afternoon.
Having hung up, Ye Xiandong was somewhat in disbelief; Qiao Qiao had actually taken the initiative to call him.
Ever since the unpleasantness of that night, Qiao Qiao had avoided him like the plague, never showing him a pleasant face.
Had the sun risen from the west today?
Meanwhile, Old Liu dropped Qiao Qiao off at the Ye Family building.
Ye Shiqing wanted to follow her out of the car, but Old Liu advised, “Shiqing, under these circumstances, you should give her some breathing space, let her calm down first. Don’t forget, she is Ye Xiandong’s wife. How could you be so foolish?”
Rationally speaking, Ye Shiqing was past the age of youthful folly; how could he have still foolishly jumped into a trap of seduction knowingly?
“Why do you sound just like Xiaoqiao?” Ye Shiqing replied gravely, watching Qiao Qiao’s retreating figure and sighed lowly, “Forget it, head back to the municipal building. Give her a day off today.”
Hearing Ye Shiqing’s reluctant tone, Old Liu chuckled, “She’s not your woman yet, and yet you’re managing her as if she’s your wife?”
Ye Shiqing remained silent, and Old Liu wisely shut his mouth.
After Qiao Qiao got out of the car, she frantically sought out Su Hongxing.
Su Hongxing was also anxious waiting, and just as she was about to inquire about the situation, Qiao Qiao suddenly hugged her tightly in agitation, “Su, I’m in deep trouble!”
“Take it easy, no rush, what happened?” Su Hongxing had never seen Qiao Qiao so panicked before.
Qiao Qiao made sure the coast was clear before recounting everything that had happened that night.
At the end, she looked at Su Hongxing with pleading eyes, “What should I do, I’ve had an affair.”
Su Hongxing’s expression was grave, “Are you sure Xiaobei drugged you? And that Ye Shiqing was sober at the time?”
Ye Shiqing didn’t seem like the kind of person to act without thinking, under those circumstances, shouldn’t he have realized that Qiao Qiao was being set up?
“Yes, he didn’t deny it. Plus, Wen Beibei came by that night, and when I awoke, she was gone, followed by my entire body heating up—aren’t those the signs of being drugged? Who else but Xiaobei would drug me? She can’t escape the blame!” Qiao Qiao spoke through gritted teeth about Wen Beibei.
