The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex

Chapter 518: Love? What a Joke

Ye Hao’s lips curled into a disdainful smile and found the whole situation ironic. Yang Kexin once confessed her love for him at his office and professed that she had liked him for many years but now that she had met Su Ye who was even richer than him, there was no trace of her anymore.

Women and love? That seemed like a joke.

He Xiyan’s gaze never left her husband’s face so she caught the strange expression that appeared on his face.

“What’s wrong?” She asked and sensed that the change in his expression had occurred after he heard Yang Kexin’s name.

She wondered if he was feeling bad for his sister Ye Shiyu.

“It’s nothing,” Ye Hao put the milk bottle in his hand aside and his arms tightened around his daughter.

“They are quite compatible,” he said with a cold laugh. Then, he stretched out an arm and wrapped it around his wife.

At the same time, a driverless car was driving along the North road of Ye City’s Hexi District.

A couple sat together in the car and the man held the woman’s hands tightly. A thin layer of sweat had formed on their palms but he still refused to let go.

The woman leaned her head against the man’s shoulders and her smile was full of happiness and excitement.

“Ye... would you be available on Friday after work?” Yang Kexin asked the man beside her. She had just started to know this man since they hadn’t interacted much in the past but over the past few days, she had enjoyed being with him. This man could give her everything she wanted – wealth, honor, status, power, and love.

She guessed that her mother would be so excited that she wouldn’t be able to sleep for three days and nights once she found out that her daughter was dating Su Ye.

Su Ye nodded with a smile and looked tenderly at the woman beside him, “Yes,” he replied. He didn’t ask what she wanted to do since it didn’t matter. He would be by her side no matter what she wanted to do.

“Why don’t you come over to have a meal on Friday? It would be my mother’s birthday then,” Yang Kexin was so excited that she didn’t know how she should express her emotions. She suddenly turned around and dropped a soft kiss on that man’s cheek.

Then, she quickly buried her blushing face into her hands. This was the first time she had taken the initiative to kiss a man. She had assumed that he would take the lead but when they had met today and the day before, he had only held her hand and didn’t try to take anythinng further between them.

Su Ye smiled and touched the spot where she had kissed him. Then, he stroked her head tenderly and said, “We’ve almost reached your place. Do you need me to send you up?”

Yang Kexin’s heart raced and she blushed furiously. She felt as though she was floating on cloud nine and this was a feeling that couldn’t be described in words. She thought for a moment before she finally said, “It’s okay, Ye. You should head home to rest too since it’s getting late.”

She wanted him to send her home but after second thought, she decided that this didn’t seem right. Her mother wasn’t at home, so if he took her home, they would be alone in her place. She was worried that he might think that she was a promiscuous woman.

Thus, she decided that it would be better for her to act with more decorum.

Su Ye opened the car door and helped her down the car. He only returned to the car after she had walked very far away.

Soon, the phone in his pocket rang and it was a call from his subordinate.

“Sir, I’ll be sending you the dossier on Yang Kexin that you’ve requested via email. Please look through the information and confirm if she’s the girl you’ve been searching for.”
