Chapter 1297: Chapter 1297: He’s Not the Ye Qilan from Before (1)

“Don’t go!” Ye Qilan sternly assumed the authority of a family head.

Su Hongxing pretended not to hear. Others might be afraid of him, but she wasn’t; let him care. To her, his ferocious appearance was just an act.

“Su Hongxing, I’m talking to you!” Ye Qilan didn’t get a response from Su Hongxing and intensified his tone.

“You talked, didn’t you?” She wasn’t stopping him from speaking.

“You weren’t like this before…” Ye Qilan looked at the unconcerned Su Hongxing and blurted out suddenly.

Su Hongxing found this interesting, “How was I before, then?”

Ye Qilan actually brought up the past? That’s strange. Didn’t he dislike the most when she talked about the past?

“You used to be obedient and well-behaved, whatever I said…” Ye Qilan suddenly recalled something and stopped talking abruptly.

Su Hongxing’s brows knitted slightly. She thought hard but simply couldn’t recall a time when she had been obedient and attentive. As far as she was concerned, that had never happened. Was Ye Qilan sure he was talking about her?

“What I mean is, you weren’t so rebellious in the past. Instead, you changed a lot after having children,” Ye Qilan added a comment.

Upon hearing that, Su Hongxing couldn’t help but let out a wry laugh: “How could I possibly be rebellious? I’m not at the age of youthful folly anymore; I’m a mother of two children.”

“I was talking to you about a serious matter just now. If Lin Zhi is the person we are looking for, she certainly isn’t as harmless as she seems. She suddenly invited you to go shopping, probably aiming to pry information from you. I’m afraid you’re not her match and might reveal some weaknesses. If that happens…”

As Su Hongxing listened, she nodded along: “Likewise, I can also extract information from her. Just because she is smart doesn’t mean I’m dumb.”

“Why can’t you just stay at home obediently and let me take care of you? I can handle these matters; I don’t need you to put yourself in danger for the public eye,” Ye Qilan said somewhat anxiously.

Seeing him like this, Su Hongxing placed her hand in his palm: “You don’t need to worry about me. I’m not a delicate flower in a greenhouse; I can protect myself.”

“Listen to me on this matter, you are not going out tomorrow!” Ye Qilan persisted with his view.

“Why can’t you be reasonable?” Su Hongxing looked at Ye Qilan in disbelief.

She had thought that today she would reconcile with Ye Qilan, but it hadn’t occurred to her that because of Lin Zhi, there was another disagreement between them.

“You know I’m doing this for your own good. Honey, please be obedient, okay? Tomorrow is Saturday, I will also stay at home, not going anywhere, and will always be with you. This matter is settled, you can’t have any objections!” Ye Qilan made a final decision with his words.

Su Hongxing shook off Ye Qilan’s hand: “You clearly said that for big decisions you have the say, and for small ones, I do. Now do I even need your permission to go out or not?”

“Matters concerning your safety are serious issues. Can you please stop being unreasonable?”

This remark from Ye Qilan completely rendered Su Hongxing speechless. Even if he was worried about her safety, that didn’t mean meeting Lin Zhi was her being unreasonable, right?

Fearing that she might be angered to death by this man or end up arguing with him again if she stayed alone with Ye Qilan any longer, she simply turned around and walked back, no longer accompanying him for a stroll in Apricot Forest.

“Su Hongxing, can you be any more childish?” Ye Qilan called out helplessly as he watched Su Hongxing’s receding figure.

If not acting petulant at any disagreement, then what is childishness?
