Chapter 1289: Chapter 1289: A Tangy Jealousy in the Air
Just like Ye Xunhuan himself said, even though he didn’t kill ng Qi, he couldn’t completely escape responsibility.
And she, Dongfang Shu, could she really say she had no resentnt towards Ye Xunhuan?
Obviously not!
At first, Dongfang Shu did hate Ye Xunhuan, but as ti went by and she cald down, she understood.
Although ng Qi’s death seed like it was due to Ye Xunhuan’s unavoidable responsibility, ng Qi brought it upon himself.
It was ng Qi who plotted against Qiu Ruoxi first, and then against Ye Xunhuan, even wanting him dead.
In such a situation, how could Ye Xunhuan possibly let ng Qi live?
Moreover, under her plea, Ye Xunhuan had agreed not to kill ng Qi, but ng Qi chose to take his own life, not wanting to make things difficult for Dongfang Shu.
Can Ye Xunhuan be blad for that?
After figuring it all out, Dongfang Shu’s resentnt towards Ye Xunhuan gradually dissipated.
After a brief silence, Dongfang Shu slowly began to speak: “Initially, I really hated you. If it weren’t for you, ng Qi wouldn’t have died.”
“But you can’t be blad for that. He was the one who tried to harm you first, and you promised not to kill him. In the end, it was he who chose to commit suicide.”
Dongfang Shu sighed softly, paused, and then continued, “Moreover, if it weren’t for , ng Qi wouldn’t have tried to go against you!”
“If you are the culprit behind ng Qi’s death, then I am the real mastermind.”
What Dongfang Shu said was indeed true. If she hadn’t repeatedly enticed Ye Xunhuan, would ng Qi have done such extre things?
“The one who ultimately pushed ng Qi to this step was Yan Qingdi, was . So now, I no longer hate you!”
Ye Xunhuan chuckled softly and then exhaled a dense cloud of smoke before saying: “So, you’re here today just to thank ?”
Dongfang Shu nodded: “Of course not, I have other matters to discuss with you.”
Ye Xunhuan knew Dongfang Shu definitely had other matters; otherwise, she wouldn’t have visited personally.
Ye Xunhuan slowly stubbed out the cigarette in his hand and then said: “Then what else might there be?”
This ti, Dongfang Shu didn’t imdiately respond but pondered slightly, then said: “Little brother, I t He Sichan a few days ago, and I realized it seems like soone is following her…”
“Are you sure?”
“I’m sure!” Dongfang Shu asserted confidently: “The other party knows I’ve discovered him, but he doesn’t seem to care!”
“This isn’t what you wanted to discuss, is it?” Ye Xunhuan suddenly shifted the topic.
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Dongfang Shu giggled lightly: “Little brother, can’t you just play dumb for once?”
“Then give a hint next ti, so I can cooperate with you.”
It was evident Dongfang Shu used the matter with He Sichan as a prelude, and what she was about to say was the actual important matter.
“Since little brother you noticed, then I’ll just say it directly…”
Before Dongfang Shu could finish, the tapping sound of high heels echoed abruptly.
The next mont, Qiu Ruoxi entered from outside.
When Qiu Ruoxi saw Dongfang Shu actually in her ho, a look of surprise imdiately appeared on her face.
But she quickly cald herself, though her heart was full of confusion and bewildernt.
What is this woman here for?
Because Qiu Ruoxi suddenly returned, the words Dongfang Shu had prepared to say slowly swallowed back into her belly.
“Miss Qiu, it’s been a long ti!” Dongfang Shu said with a charming smile.
“Indeed, it’s been a while.” Qiu Ruoxi said coldly: “I wonder what brings Miss Dongfang to my ho?”
Upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s inquiry, Dongfang Shu, without any hesitation, imdiately said: “I ca to apologize to both of you for the life-threatening online shopping incident before!”
“It was my neglect, which led you to face such a crisis!”
“It’s in the past, there’s no need to ntion it.” Qiu Ruoxi said indifferently.
Because of Qiu Ruoxi’s arrival, Dongfang Shu, who wanted to discuss other matters with Ye Xunhuan, had to swallow all her unspoken words.
After Qiu Ruoxi’s return, she didn’t go upstairs but instead sat directly on the sofa, guarding against Dongfang Shu as if against a thief.
Dongfang Shu’s attempts to entice Ye Xunhuan weren’t just once or twice, sothing Qiu Ruoxi was well aware of.
Now that this woman suddenly ca to her ho, who knows what she was trying to do?
Moreover, considering her affordable husband seed to favor beauties, if sothing were to happen between him and Dongfang Shu, it would be a hassle.
Most importantly, Qiu Ruoxi had just established a relationship with Ye Xunhuan and definitely didn’t want any other woman to interfere.
Tang Yurou and others were already giving Qiu Ruoxi enough of a headache, and adding Dongfang Shu to the mix…
This one woman might be harder to handle than two Tang Yurou combined.
One wonders what Dongfang Shu would think if she knew what was going on in Qiu Ruoxi’s mind!
Due to Qiu Ruoxi’s constant presence, Dongfang Shu also held back from saying what she hadn’t finished discussing.
Ti quietly passed, more than twenty minutes went by, yet Qiu Ruoxi still sat on the sofa, forcing Dongfang Shu to hold back on her intended words.
Maybe she realized, if she didn’t leave, Qiu Ruoxi absolutely wouldn’t budge from her spot.
“Miss Qiu, Little brother, you both just got back and must be tired, so I won’t disturb you. Let’s chat another day!”
With that, Dongfang Shu rose to her feet, gesturing as if to leave.
“I’ll see you out!” Ye Xunhuan imdiately stood up and said.
As soon as Ye Xunhuan finished speaking, Qiu Ruoxi stood up from the sofa too, as if intending to escort Dongfang Shu out alongside him.
This left Ye Xunhuan filled with helplessness, but he said nothing.
Ye Xunhuan and Qiu Ruoxi then escorted Dongfang Shu out, watching her leave.
After Dongfang Shu left, Qiu Ruoxi imdiately turned to Ye Xunhuan with a cold face and said: “Ye Xunhuan, you’re sothing, aren’t you? Just back ho and a woman cos looking for you, and a rich woman at that. Should I give her my place then?”
Upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s slightly jealous words, Ye Xunhuan symbolically sniffed twice: “Honey, can you sll it? It slls like pickled mustard greens…”
“You…”
Ye Xunhuan chuckled: “She ca on her own, ask Aunt Wang if you don’t believe it. And this is already her second ti.”
“I don’t care how many tis she cos, but Ye Xunhuan, you must rember, don’t ss with this woman. I can tolerate you with other won, but you absolutely must not touch Dongfang Shu!” Qiu Ruoxi said coldly: “This woman is like a poppy, gorgeous on the surface and enticing, but lethal, do you understand?”
