Chapter 7: He’s Not Someone You Can Think About, Give Up That Idea!

Ye Xi was discharged from the hospital the next day at noon. She had only been knocked unconscious, and after an examination revealed no problems, she was allowed to leave.

Like Li Su, Ye Xi suspected that Su Qingtan had attacked her.

Because Su Qingtan’s hatred for her was obvious to everyone.

“It must be that dead girl.” Ye Xi’s mother, Ye Xiaoyun, had been grumbling ever since Ye Xi received the call from the police. “These police are useless, they can’t even figure out such a small matter.”

Ye Xi was also unhappy, but she still persuaded her, “Mom, don’t say that. That place is not a good location, there are many trees and no lights, it’s dark, and there’s no surveillance. It’s really hard to find someone.”

“It’s my fault, I shouldn’t have taken that shortcut.”

Ye Xiaoyun brought over a bowl of mushroom soup and handed it to her daughter, still not completely calmed down, “Don’t blame yourself for everything, if you want to blame someone, blame that dead girl Su Qingtan.”

“How come it’s so coincidental—”

Before she finished speaking, Li Su arrived.

When Ye Xiaoyun went to open the door, the anger on her face disappeared and was replaced by a smile. After opening the door, she said to Li Su kindly, “Li Su is here.”

“Hello, Auntie.” Li Su smiled and handed over the food he was holding. The smile on Ye Xiaoyun’s face grew even wider, “I told you not to buy food, Auntie has everything here.”

“Just adding a dish.” Li Su smiled.

Ye Xiaoyun took the food and went into the kitchen, leaving the living room to the two young people.

Li Su sat next to Ye Xi, looked at her complexion, and smiled, “You look much better.”

“It wasn’t anything serious.” Ye Xi smiled at him, then said, “Officer Wang just called me, there’s no surveillance there, and no witnesses. He said he contacted Su Qingtan, and she didn’t see any suspicious people either.”

“Officer Wang also said that there was a lot of fruit peel and garbage there, and he suspected that I was knocked unconscious by something falling from above.”

“But I feel like I was hit by someone.”

“Maybe it really was something falling from above. You were hit on the back of your neck, you didn’t see it with your eyes, you can’t judge whether you were hit or hit by a heavy object just by feeling.” Li Su listened to Ye Xi’s words and thought that the officer’s theory of something falling from above was reasonable, so he made this deduction.

Ye Xi was obviously unhappy, “You’re really a couple, you’re taking Su Qingtan’s side.”

“Even if I was on her side, I wouldn’t agree with you going to the police.” Li Su gently patted Ye Xi’s shoulder, continuing to comfort her, “Besides, think about it, according to her personality, if she had attacked you, how could she have called an ambulance to send you to the hospital?”

Ye Xi was convinced by this statement.

Yes, Su Qingtan’s dislike for her, even if you don’t say she hates her to death, she’s not kind enough to beat her and then send her to the hospital.

“Okay, it seems it was just a coincidence.” Ye Xi sighed softly, then frowned again, showing a troubled expression.

Her eyes were watery, her eyelashes were long, her features were beautiful and superior, and her overall temperament was pure and somewhat weak, the kind of girl that most men like.

As soon as she frowned, the weakness on her body was magnified.

Li Su saw this and hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong?”

“If it was a coincidence, Su Qingtan helped me call an ambulance and sent me to the hospital, shouldn’t I go to her house to thank her?” Ye Xi said.

“I thought it was something else.” Li Su smiled, “I’ll go thank her for you later. You don’t have a good relationship with her, you don’t need to go.”

“I really don’t want to go.” Ye Xi showed a troubled expression to Li Su again, “But if I let you pass the message, Su Qingtan will definitely be unhappy, right?”

“It’s always because of me that our relationship is affected, I feel bad too.”

The smile on Li Su’s face faded a little. He looked at Ye Xi’s watery eyes and said seriously, “Xiaoxi, I want to ask you, if I hadn’t been tricked into marriage by Su Qingtan, would you have agreed to my pursuit?”

Ye Xi was stunned, then she said, “Why are you suddenly asking this question?”

Li Su sighed, “I just want to know, if I was single, would we have a chance to be together?”

Ye Xi was stunned for a while, then smiled, “Maybe, you’re so gentle and so good to me, I think I wouldn’t have been willing to miss you.”

A smile returned to Li Su’s face. Seeing this, Ye Xi frowned again, showing her weak appearance, “But it’s meaningless to ask these hypothetical questions now. You’re already married to Su Qingtan, and she’s so strong and stubborn, it’s not easy for you to become single again.”

After listening to Ye Xi’s words, Li Su wanted to tell her about Su Qingtan’s proposal to divorce him.

But he thought he should wait until he had dealt with it before telling her.

“Su Qingtan is just strong and stubborn in her pursuit of me. When I first met her, she was a pretty reasonable little girl.” Li Su followed Ye Xi’s words, talking about his relationship with Su Qingtan, “We don’t live together, and after a long time, she will definitely come to her senses.”

“It’s not that difficult for me to become single again.”

Ye Xi showed a slightly unhappy expression, “She’s still strong and stubborn in her pursuit of you. You’re very proud of being obsessed with and schemed against by a woman, aren’t you?”

“I’m not proud.” Li Su reached out and took Ye Xi’s hand. Ye Xi stiffened for a moment, and when Li Su looked up at her, she quickly relaxed.

“It’s just that I can understand her strength and stubbornness.” Li Su looked up at Ye Xi, smiling gently, “Because I feel the same way about you.”

Ye Xi was stunned for a few seconds before she chuckled softly, “You’re saying this, do you mean you’re going to use the same method that Su Qingtan used to scheme against you to scheme against me?”

“No, I’ll keep chasing you until you agree.” Li Su said, tightening his grip on Ye Xi’s hand, “Xiaoxi, promise me, when I become single again, you’ll be my girlfriend.”

Ye Xi pulled her hand away, slightly wrinkling her nose, “We’ll talk about it when you become single.”

Anyone who saw her would know she was being coquettish.

Li Su smiled and pinched her nose. The two of them chatted intimately for a while. Ye Xiaoyun occasionally looked up from the kitchen and saw Li Su smiling happily, and she was very satisfied.

But when she saw Ye Xi smiling faintly, she frowned.

In the evening, after Li Su finished dinner and left, Ye Xiaoyun pulled Ye Xi to sit on the sofa and said, “Xiaoxi, Li Su is really a good person, you can’t be indecisive.”

Facing her mother, who had raised her carefully since she was a child and knew her inside and out, Ye Xi couldn’t say no, she just said, “Li Su hasn’t divorced yet, and his parents don’t like me very much. We’ll talk about it when he can solve these problems.”

“Li Su said he can solve it, he will definitely solve it.” Ye Xiaoyun frowned, her tone becoming a little harsher, “Although you seem to be very good with Li Su on the surface, Mom can see that you’re still thinking about Xiao Yang. Mom has told you before, he’s not someone you can think about, give up that idea!”

Ye Xi heard this, her eyes showed some defiance, “Xiao Yang’s family background is ten times stronger than Li Su’s, and he’s more capable and imposing than Li Su. Anyone would know who to choose.”

“Besides, Xiao Yang’s family and Dad’s side have always been in contact, we’ve known each other since we were little. Xiao Yang’s grandfather has always wanted to make a match with Uncle’s family, but you know—”

“Shut up!” Ye Xiaoyun was a little exasperated, “You said you wanted to make a match with your uncle’s family, what does it have to do with you!”

“You’re so daring to think about this all day long!”
