Chapter 217: Su Hongxing, You Haven’t Made Any Progress All These Years_1



Su Hongxing, this ugly duckling, was the natural choice for a servant.

Cao Shiyu looked at Ye Qilan with a wronged expression, clearly implying that this was Ye Qilan’s intention.

At this moment, she felt it was excellent that Zhou Luhe had arrived. At least, Zhou Luhe was a family member who would invariably be on her side, capable of helping her deal with Su Hongxing.

From Cao Shiyu’s expression and gaze, Zhou Luhe discerned that it was because of Ye Qilan’s partiality that Su Hongxing dared to bully Cao Shiyu.

“Su Hongxing, after all these years you still haven’t changed, only knowing how to oppress those weaker than yourself. You think our Shiyu is an easy target, so you’re making her your scapegoat, right? Let me tell you, as long as I’m here, there’s no chance for you to throw your weight around over Shiyu!”

Zhou Luhe gave Su Hongxing a cold stare, loudly scolding her.

Having snatched Xiao Ji from Su Hongxing in the past, did Su Hongxing think she could steal Ye Qilan from Cao Shiyu with her plain looks?

What a ridiculous notion!

Su Hongxing looked at the arrogant and domineering Zhou Luhe, her lips curling into a smile: “After all these years, Zhou Luhe, you’re still the same shrew. I wonder when Xiao Ji will grow tired of you and start having affairs?”

She scrutinized Zhou Luhe’s face carefully, then shook her head: “You don’t look at all like a bride about to have a grand wedding. You seem pale and filled with resentment. What, is Xiao Ji reluctant to touch you?”

Why was she so confident?

It was because she knew that, even though Xiao Ji was interested in the power behind Zhou Luhe’s family, he didn’t have much affection for Zhou Luhe herself.

Fulfilling marital duties is a must for a husband and wife, but if one party is unwilling, then things could become interesting. At least it seemed, Zhou Luhe’s face was largely filled with resentment.

Zhou Luhe was stricken by Su Hongxing’s pinpoint accuracy in hitting her most vulnerable spot.

Even though she had Xiao Ji as her man, Su Hongxing was the one he cherished most in his heart. Consequently, Xiao Ji would always find excuses not to touch her, claiming he was busy with work, staying late in his study every day. Only Zhou Luhe knew that Xiao Ji was just trying to avoid her.

This was the reason she despised Su Hongxing so deeply.

The man she had worked so hard to win over was thinking of her archenemy. How could she ever tolerate Su Hongxing?

“Even if I’ve hit the nail on the head about your agonies, don’t give me such resentful looks. It’s not me who’s been refusing to share your bed, you should be mad at Xiao Ji.”

Su Hongxing eyed Cao Shiyu as she spoke, “Why aren’t you making tea yet? Don’t tell me you can’t even do such a simple task.”

Cao Shiyu was simmering with anger but she didn’t want to lose her dignity in front of Ye Qilan.

Little did she know, Su Hongxing had precisely seized upon this sensitivity of hers, knowing that Cao Shiyu was always cautious, prompting her to press her relentlessly.

Due to Ye Qilan’s presence, Zhou Luhe didn’t want to make a complete scene, so she said to Cao Shiyu, “I don’t want tea.”

Cao Shiyu breathed a sigh of relief, then turned to Zhou Luhe and said, “Fourth Brother is busy. Sister, please take a seat.”

Zhou Luhe looked at Ye Qilan who was engrossed in his work. Since she had entered the office, Ye Qilan hadn’t glanced her way once. He didn’t seem to care at all about Cao Shiyu being bullied by Su Hongxing.

How could Cao Shiyu possibly compete with an arrogant, self-absorbed man like Ye Qilan?
