Celestial Emperor of Shadow

Chapter 169: scene


After waiting for about ten minutes, a black Maybach pulled up by the roadside.

Yang Zhilan, meticulously dressed, stepped out from the passenger seat.

It had been years since Ye Qiu last saw Yang Zhilan.

Seeing her again, he found her even more stunning.

She was no longer the naive young girl from back then.

Now, she was like a ripe peach, exuding a captivating femininity.

"She put on makeup just for this. Women dress up for those they admire. She really is just as I thought."

Ye Qiu was thrilled, even a bit moved.

Because he genuinely had feelings for Yang Zhilan, he liked her in his heart, just as he liked Lin Huanxi.

But the difference was, Lin Huanxi had become increasingly distant for some reason.

Yet Yang Zhilan was willing to respond to him!

"Zhilan, you're here."

He eagerly approached and called out.

"Don't call me so intimately. We're not close anymore. Why did you specifically ask me to come here?"

Yang Zhilan replied coldly.

Now, aside from her father and Tang Yu, she showed a good face to no other men.

Even though her androphobia had improved, her attitude remained unchanged.

Ye Qiu didn't mind Yang Zhilan's indifference at all.

With a face half bright and half sorrowful, he said,

"Zhilan, I know you're still mad at me, but I've had my reasons over the years."

"Back then, your dad was convinced I had ulterior motives towards you, and I didn't know how to prove my innocence."

"If I continued to be entangled with you, it would only affect your relationship with your dad."

"So I chose to step back. Only true love would let go, to make you less miserable."

"But I regret it. If time could turn back..."

Yang Zhilan just stood there with a cold smile, listening.

As expected, he was saying the same sweet nothings as before.

Back then, she was just a girl who loved reading Mary Sue romance novels.

Hearing Ye Qiu's words would have moved her to tears, making her feel like she couldn't marry anyone else in this life.

But now, she only felt it was hypocritical and nauseating.

At this moment, Tang Yu was sitting in the Maybach ten meters away. He was here to drive Yang Zhilan to the airport today.

And to accompany her here.

After hearing Ye Qiu's words, Tang Yu clicked his tongue, feeling that this level was still far off.

To truly win back a woman's heart,

It still required that sincere love speech from Master Xing.

After talking for a long time, Ye Qiu felt a bit parched.

Seeing that Yang Zhilan was completely unmoved, this was not what he had imagined.

Logically, shouldn't she be moved to tears and concerned about why he was hurt?

"Are you done?"

Seeing Ye Qiu stop, Yang Zhilan asked with a cold smile.

"Zhilan, are you really that mad at me?"

Ye Qiu asked bitterly.

"I'm not mad at you because I never cared about you. I just wanted to see how you'd perform today."

A trace of mockery appeared on Yang Zhilan's face.

Ye Qiu suddenly felt a pang in his heart.

When did she start showing him such an expression?

In his most vulnerable moment, she treated him like this?

A surge of anger suddenly rose from his heart because his feelings for Yang Zhilan were different.

Lin Huanxi was a woman he liked.

But he still needed some time to make her truly fall in love with him.

Yang Zhilan was also a woman he liked.

But Ye Qiu had already decided she was his woman, and she must be deeply in love with him.

Her current attitude made Ye Qiu feel betrayed.

Yes, like a man who struggled outside and endured all kinds of grievances!

Only to return home to his wife's cold eyes and ridicule!

"What do you mean? What do you take my sincerity for?"

"Do you know how miserable I've been all these years?"

"All for you. If I hadn't feared affecting your relationship with your dad, how would I have ended up as a live-in son-in-law?"

His forehead veins bulged as he tried to suppress his anger.

He shouted with a trembling voice.

"So what? You still got married, didn't you? Why are you coming to me behind your wife's back?"

"Talking about feelings? Forget it. I have someone I like now."

"He's more handsome and richer than you, and he's a good match for our family. My dad likes him too."

Yang Zhilan sneered and turned to leave.

Seeing Ye Qiu's breakdown, she felt utterly refreshed!

Who told him to be so sinister back then, making her life so miserable all these years!

She couldn't swallow this anger without trampling his self-esteem underfoot.

After Yang Zhilan finished speaking,

Ye Qiu could no longer contain his anger.

With a twisted face, he rushed forward to grab Yang Zhilan's arm, not letting her leave.

This vile woman, clearly unable to let go of him, dared to find another man?

Had her androphobia been cured?

Just as he was about to grab Yang Zhilan's arm,

A man stepped between him and Yang Zhilan.

It was Tang Yu, who had run over from the car.

Seeing Ye Qiu's increasingly twisted expression, Tang Yu quickly got out of the car.

To prevent this guy from losing it and doing something rash.

Seeing Tang Yu again, Ye Qiu's pupils suddenly shrank.

This guy, wasn't he the one from Suzhou and Hangzhou?

How could he be here?

Could it be, after hooking up with his wife, he also got Yang Zhilan?

For a moment, he the felt the scent of grass wafting from above his head.

His head had turned into a vast grassland.

If a strong wind blew, it would be like seeing cattle and sheep as the grass bent low.

He was the brother of cattle and sheep, a fool.

One had to a admit, his intuition was quite accurate.
