Chapter 290: Chapter 290: On the Eve of Marriage_1

Everyone was engaged in a heated discussion, finding it more engrossing than watching a melodramatic romance drama.

Secretary Ren noticed something odd behind her. Turning her head, she saw Su Hongxing standing there, seemingly having overheard their conversation.

Su Hongxing glanced at her, then quickly drifted away like a lost soul.

Everyone exchange looks, finding Su Hongxing’s demeanor odd and suspected that she was out of her senses due to a major blow.

Not long after, Su Hongxing returned, and went up to Secretary Ren’s desk, “Secretary Ren, could I borrow your computer?”

Ye Qilan wouldn’t allow her to surf the internet and even took away the newspaper. She wanted to know what kind of big news or major events were reported online that Ye Qilan was trying to hide from her.

Secretary Ren hesitated, but Su Hongxing directly brushed past her and took her seat.

The webpage on the computer was still open. The news webpage that Secretary Ren just opened was precisely the story of Cao Shiyu and Ye Qilan at the charity dinner last night.

Secretary Ren nervously stood aside, afraid of upsetting Su Hongxing, and whispered, “Um, Secretary Su, I will stand on your side.”

Even though Ye Qilan’s and Cao Shiyu’s marriage was a done deal, she still sympathized more with Su Hongxing.

Su Hongxing’s father, boyfriend, and now her husband had all been taken away by the women of the Cao Family.

Su Hongxing hadn’t gone mad yet, which showed her strength.

Su Hongxing focused on the news, as if she hadn’t heard Secretary Ren’s words.

Only after reading all the news did she understand why Ye Qilan had banned her from going online.

Not only were there pictures of Ye Qilan and Cao Shiyu showing their affection, but there were also reports that Ye Qilan had custom-made a wedding dress to win Cao Shiyu’s heart.

The rumored priceless wedding dress was said to have 999 pink diamonds embedded in it.

Besides, both the Ye Family and the Cao Family had spoken in support of the couple.

Yesterday, everyone was against the Cao Family, but with the release of all these so-called “positive” news today, public opinion changed instantly.

Su Hongxing browsed for a while before closing the webpage.

No wonder it is said that money can make the mare go, let alone when the Ye Family and Cao Family join forces?

She had anticipated this outcome, which was exactly what she desired.

The more joy the people of the Cao Family expressed today, the greater their despair would be in the future.

Ye Qilan returned from the restroom only to find Su Hongxing missing. Arriving at the office, he found her refreshing news at Secretary Ren’s desk.

His face darkened, he was about to scold Secretary Ren but then swallowed his words at a glance from Su Hongxing.

Subsequently, Ye Qilan paid careful attention to Su Hongxing’s expressions.

Either her acting skills were great, or she was genuinely unbothered; in any case, her expression didn’t betray any anomalies.

That night, as usual, he climbed into Su Hongxing’s bed. He wanted to do something, but at her gaze, he felt guilty and did nothing.

Two days passed like this, Su Hongxing refused to say a word to him. But wherever he went, she followed. And she had no objections to what he asked her to do.

This docile Su Hongxing unsettled Ye Qilan.

And so, the day before Ye Qilan’s wedding arrived.

That afternoon, Ye Qilan began to get busy, preparing to be the groom.

He still kept Su Hongxing by his side.

Many members of the Ye Family arrived, including Du Qingyu and Ye Yanhong, who returned from a “business trip” abroad.
