Chapter 1601: Chapter 1601: Changing Husbands (1)

Fu Yan lightly patted Ye Qilan’s shoulder and consoled him, “Women are actually easy to appease; Madam is also a woman. As long as you lower your stance, she’ll forgive you. How about this, let’s go for a drink tonight.”

Ye Qilan thought Fu Yan’s idea was not bad and gladly agreed, “Sure, let’s have a few drinks after work.”

At the moment, Ye Qilan didn’t return to Jufeng Group; he stayed at Lugang Industry to help Fu Yan take care of the kids.

Liu Qingyin saw Ye Qilan holding her son and immediately informed Su Hongxing, “Isn’t it true that Sis and Brother-in-law had another argument? I saw Brother-in-law over here helping me with the kids; the scene was hilarious.”

Upon hearing this, Su Hongxing looked at her son blowing spit bubbles on the side.

Ye Qilan was something else, wasn’t he? Not taking care of his own son but running off to help Liu Qingyin with hers?

She wanted to see how stubborn Ye Qilan could get; if he had the guts, he’d never come back to Qingmu Garden in this lifetime, and she would really stand up to that man.

That evening, Ye Qilan drank quite a lot. After parting ways with Fu Yan, he got into the car.

Xiaohe noticed Ye Qilan seemed quite drunk and cautiously asked, “Sir, are we heading back to Qingmu Garden?”

“I want to go home, to see my wife. She hasn’t spoken to me in a while,” Ye Qilan mumbled drunkenly, a silly smile spreading as he mentioned Su Hongxing.

Xiaohe thought Ye Qilan had just had a simple argument with Su Hongxing and didn’t think much of it, so she took Ye Qilan back to Qingmu Garden.

Ye Qilan stumbled out of the car, muttering to himself. When he realized he was in the garage of Qingmu Garden, he shook his head, feeling like he had forgotten something important.

Xiaohe saw Ye Qilan was just talking about Su Hongxing, yet he wasn’t heading into the living room, so she reminded him, “Didn’t you say you wanted to see Madam?” Aren’t we going yet?

“I, I can’t go home…” Ye Qilan mumbled to himself, but couldn’t remember why he couldn’t go home.

Meanwhile, Zhu Jin was thrilled when Age told him Ye Qilan had returned to Qingmu Garden; he immediately ran over to catch a glimpse of Ye Qilan.

Su Hongxing also found it odd. Knowing Qilan’s stubborn nature, there was no way he could have had a sudden change of heart and rushed back to Qingmu Garden. It was out of character. She followed behind Zhu Jin with a sense of curiosity.

“Mr. Ye, hello, I’m Zhu Jin.” Zhu Jin quickly ran up to Ye Qilan.

Upon hearing the name “Zhu Jin,” Ye Qilan felt like he was struck by lightning, sobering up instantly. He took two steps back and quickly dove back into the car.

He saw Xiaohe still standing there, yelled, “Xiaohe, drive!”

Xiaohe looked bewildered; she got into the car mechanically, unable to understand why Ye Qilan was afraid of Zhu Jin.

“Husband, where are you going?” At this moment, Su Hongxing poked her head in through the car window, looking at Ye Qilan with a playful smile.

Hearing Su Hongxing’s sweet, endearing “husband,” Ye Qilan’s heart almost melted. But he quickly snapped back to reality, thinking it was sugar-coated poison, and replied seriously and formally, “I just remembered there’s work I haven’t finished. Honey, you get some rest early. I’ll finish up these loose ends before coming back to accompany you, okay?”

He said this as he pushed Su Hongxing away.

Su Hongxing looked coldly at Ye Qilan, “Fine, if you leave now, don’t bother coming back to this house. If you don’t want to be my husband, I’ll just find another one!”

Having said that, she ignored Ye Qilan and went straight back to the living room.

Ye Qilan watched Su Hongxing’s figure as she left, calling out to her, but she didn’t respond at all.
