Chapter 928 -928: One Glance Mistakes Half a Lifetime
Qiao Qiao realized something, she could sue Ye Xiandong based on his affair and illegitimate child.
Ye Xiandong’s complexion changed, he didn’t expect Qiao Qiao to even know about his illegitimate child.
“I originally thought since we were husband and wife, we could part on good terms, without making a scene. It seems I was wrong,” Qiao Qiao said, staring intently at Ye Xiandong, “Do you know? I once truly liked you. Many years ago, when I first met you, I fell for you. Perhaps the man I liked was just a figment of my imagination, he was not you.”
How could the Ye Xiandong in front of her be the same man she once had such genuine feelings for?
A single glance wasted half a lifetime, yet she, she still had time.
Ye Xiandong stood rooted to the spot, watching as Qiao Qiao walked away quickly.
Seemingly since he could remember, it was the first time a woman had so frankly expressed liking him. Many women had said they loved him, loved his looks, his status, his power.
But many years back, he was just a naïve young man, and Qiao Qiao said she had liked him from those early days.
During their years of marriage, he occasionally saw traces of affection in her eyes. She never wore her love on her sleeve, but it was visible in the details of everyday life.
The first time she ever verbalized her liking for him was when she was determined to divorce.
Ye Xiandong drove back to the villa, a place he returned to often after getting married. Yet, many times, he spent the night with other women.
Every time he woke up, there was the face of a strange woman beside him on the pillow. Only when he was back here, Qiao Qiao was always gentle and soft-spoken. It seemed as long as he returned, he could see her busy figure.
The first time he brought another woman home, Qiao Qiao’s gaze held panic and shock. It was as though since he brought Cao Shiyu home, her expression had become very calm.
When Cao Shiyu moved in, Qiao Qiao stopped staying overnight.
After that, other women stayed occasionally, but they were always passing through. And now he was certain of one thing, Qiao Qiao would not look back, just like he had never looked back at her before, the principle was the same.
Ye Xiandong looked at the empty villa, feeling somewhat panicked, yet he did not know why he was agitated…

After parting with Qiao Qiao, Lawyer Sun called Ye Shiqing to report on Qiao Qiao’s situation, “Mr. Ye, Miss Qiao has decided to sue Ye Xiandong for divorce.”
“I want their divorce lawsuit to be completed in the shortest possible time. Skip the usual procedures, and expedite the divorce lawsuit schedule,” Ye Shiqing said flatly.
Lawyer Sun immediately understood the deeper meaning of Ye Shiqing’s words.
Ye Shiqing wanted Qiao Qiao to regain her freedom as soon as possible, dispensing with all the time for case filing and scrutiny, he only wanted the outcome.
Now, with Ye Shiqing in a high position, using special channels, such a result was inevitable.
“Mr. Ye, I understand what to do,” Lawyer Sun said respectfully.
The next day Ye Xiandong, still hungover, received a summons from the court, informing him that his divorce case with Qiao Qiao would go to trial in a week.
Compared to the normal timeline for divorce cases, this was advanced by more than just a little.
Ye Xiandong immediately understood who was behind this, apart from Ye Shiqing, who else had the power to expedite the divorce case so urgently?
He called Ye Shiqing, and Qiao Qiao answered the phone, speaking formally, “Mr. Ye is chairing a committee meeting right now, he’s not available.”
