Ye Qilan took a deep look at Du Qingyu and took a step back. “You still don’t understand one thing. I’m me and you’re you. What do my business and my people have to do with you?”

Du Qingyu’s beautiful eyes darkened.

Perhaps he was right, but she still couldn’t accept it.

“Qilan, I know you too well. You like to chase after what you think is good. Once that thing is in your hands, you won’t be interested anymore. I don’t know why you married Su Hongxing, but I understand that sooner or later, she will end up like us. You will never stop for any woman.”

Su Hongxing was favored only because Ye Qilan was interested in her.

In addition, Su Hongxing was not as easy to get as other women who admired Ye Qilan. Ye Qilan spent more time on Su Hongxing than other women.

Ye Qilan did not say anything.

Du Qingyu continued, “You know, I married your father because this is the only chance to get close to you. I can’t marry you, but I have to disgust you for the rest of my life. At the very least, you won’t be able to get rid of me for the rest of your life, right?”

That was why she had suddenly become Ye Qilan’s stepmother. She was not sad. If she could not have a man, no other woman could, including Su Hongxing.

On the second floor, Du Qingyu went to Su Hongxing’s guest room.

She knocked on the door and entered. She saw Su Hongxing leaning against the sofa and playing with her phone.

Su Hongxing could tell that Du Qingyu would not visit her unless she needed something. The person and matter that Du Qingyu wanted to talk to her about had something to do with Ye Qilan.

“Do you know that there’s someone in Ye Qilan’s heart? Other than that person, all the other women are toys in his hands. When he’s tired of them, he’ll throw them away without hesitation. That includes me and you in the future.” Du Qingyu seemed to be talking to herself as she spoke to Su Hongxing.

Su Hongxing glanced at Du Qingyu, who was trapped by love, and did not reply.

Du Qingyu’s gaze fell on Su Hongxing’s face. “I really hope you can remain so calm for the rest of your life and not fall in love with Ye Qilan. You really have to protect yourself. Otherwise, you’ll only be ruined by him in the end…”

Su Hongxing only felt that Du Qingyu was very noisy, making it impossible for her to play the game quietly.

Fifteen minutes later, Du Qingyu was still babbling non-stop. Su Hongxing’s game finally ended under her interference. She was a little unhappy. “Are you done?!”

How annoying. Couldn’t Du Qingyu let her live a good life?

“I’m almost done. Hongxing, I’m actually very envious of you. Among so many women who like him, not a single one has the chance to marry him. You don’t like him, but you’re lucky enough to be his wife. While I’m envious, I’m also very jealous of you…”

Du Qingyu’s bitter tears fell silently.

Su Hongxing looked at Du Qingyu in a daze. Suddenly, she recalled how she had lost control that day.

She and Xiao Ji had known each other for so many years. When she found out that Xiao Ji had abandoned her and married Zhou Luhe, she cried her heart out. Who could be truly open-minded when it came to relationships?

The reason why she was hurt was that she had gone into it willingly only to suffer a crushing defeat.

“I also know that I’m not likable, so I’m leaving now.” Du Qingyu walked to the door and turned to look at Su Hongxing. “I hope that you won’t follow in my footsteps one day. I’m afraid that this will be the end of my life.”

After Du Qingyu left, Su Hongxing was no longer in the mood to play games.

In the evening, Ye Qilan brought her an evening gown. “Put it on and attend a business dinner with me.”
