Soldier King, CEO Queen

Chapter 347: Chapter 345 Heart-to-Heart Talk

"Click," the bathroom door swung open, and Su Qingqging walked in expressionlessly.

This really startled Ye Huan, who quickly grabbed a towel to wrap around himself, "I'm taking a shower, what are

you doing in here?"

"You broughtto a hotel, and you're still pretending?" Su Qingging’s words were devoid of any emotion as she

wobbled in, clearly drunk.

Ye Huan: "..."

"You're overthinking it." After a brief silence, Ye Huan’s face darkened.

"I'm overthinking it? If you weren't thinking about those things, why would you bringto a room like this?" Su

Qingging sneered.

The sheer boldness of her words left Brother Huan speechless and embarrassed.

Seeing Ye Huan silent, Su Qingging sneered, "What, do you think I'm dirty or that | have no self-respect?"

"No such thing! | really couldn't help it when | booked this room; the receptionist downstairs kept babbling on

and wouldn't letbook any other room..."

"Why are you talking so much? | don’t want to hear your explanations."

"If you weren't a woman, you'd be straight with me, especially since I'm drunk."

"I'm telling you, besides you, I've never even touched a man’s hand in my life. I'm very clean, so you don’t have

to worry about getting sick!"

Su Qingging looked as furious as she could be, spit flying as she spoke.

Ye Huan felt a bit awkward, reflecting on what he said last time, realizing he might have gone too far. He showed

a hint of apology on his face, "I'm sorry, when | was in your bedroom, | did speak harshly, but | really didn’t mean

that you were unclean’ in that way."

Su Qingging let out a self-deprecating laugh, "Not in that way? Then what do you mean?"

"I mean, | think...we should interact as friends, not like lovers glued to each other, because | already have

someone | like, and | can’t reciprocate your feelings; | hope you understand."

Ye Huan'’s voice was gentle and soft.

Visibly, the anger on Su Qingqging’s face slowly subsided, replaced by a look of desolation.

In the past, she was willing to do anything to win over Ye Huan, no matter what method.

Even if it meant being the despised mistress, she didn’t care.

Friends? She was greedy and didn’t want just that.

But Ye Huan had already made it this clear, saying he couldn't reciprocate her feelings...

Didn't that just mean: | can’t fall for you?

She used to hate playboys and admired men who were wholeheartedly devoted.

But now, she really wished Ye Huan could be a bit more of a player, enough to spare sfeelings for her.

But...that’s almost impossible.

And if she continued to struggle, they might not even remain friends.

Is that really what she wanted?

Su Qingging’s expression grew extremely complicated.

She took a deep breath and asked, "What you just said...is it true? That what you meant in my hwasn’t that

you thought | was unclean?"

"If you were really that kind of woman, when | saved you before and kissed you a couple of times, would you

really want to killfor it?" joked Ye Huan.

Su Qingging, apart from the drunken flush, blushed all the more, "Thinking of that makesangry, | want to kill

you even now."

Ye Huan chuckled, "Take it easy on me."

Su Qingging crossed her arms, snorting, "Hmph, don’t letcatch the chance, or I'll chop you into pieces!

Alright, from now on, we're just purely friends. As a friend, can | ask a question?"

"Of course."

"Who is the woman you like?"

"Zhang Huimin." Ye Huan answered straightforwardly, "Liu Tianyun and | are just in a marriage of convenience. It

won't be long before we divorce."

"I knew it. The way you and Liu Tianyun interact is so strange for a couple," Su Qingqing said, suddenly

enlightened, but internally she felt another pang of discomfort.

Zhang Huimin.

After Ye Huan joined Tianyun International, his first department was the sales department.

He met her first, not Zhang Huimin from Group Three.

She met him first, she cfirst!

But because she mistook him for a playboy, she missed the best opportunity to pursue him, damn it.

She gritted her teeth, hinting deeply, "I'm drunk right now."

"That means you should go and have a good sleep."

"Go out then."

Ye Huan chuckled.

He ignored the deeper meaning in her words.

"Hmph, I'll leave, just don’t regret it," Su Qingqing huffed and turned to leave the bathroom.

As she turned around, she was filled with regret again!

Do you have to be so devoted!

Is it that hard for you to be a little bit of a player with me!

Ye Huan dried his hair and walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a bathrobe.

"Turn off the lights, | want to sleep now," Su Qingging lay on the right side of the large bed, glancing at Ye Huan.

As soon as Ye Huan turned off the lights, she added, "Sleep on the left side, and just like last tat my place,

don’t cross the line."

"Okay." Given the precedent, Ye Huan wasn’t fussy and slipped under the covers on the bed.

After half a minute, Su Qingqing’s breathing beceven, as if she had fallen asleep.

Yet she curled up next to Brother Huan’s arm...

Damn!

Ye Huan nudged her, gritting his teeth, "Su Qingqing, you're crossing the line!"

Su Qingging didn’t respond.

Ye Huan carefully pushed her away.

After pushing her away, she would snuggle back up again.

Push away again, and she’d snuggle back!

Ye Huan was at his wit’s end, wanting to get out of bed and sleep on the couch.

"From now on, we're just pure friends, | won't bother you anymore!"

"Can | hug you one last time, please?"

Su Qingging spoke, with a hint of pleading.

Ye Huan: "..."

With a sigh, he stopped pushing Su Qingging away and gave up on the idea of getting out of the bed.

Su Qingqing’s face flushed slightly, she moved her pretty face to Ye Huan’s pillow, looking at the phone in his

hand that emitted a faint glow, and gently asked, "What are you doing?"

"Oh, I'm reading a ."

"Oh..." Su Qingging glanced at Ye Huan’s phone and exclaimed, "You're reading ‘The Strongest Soldier King's

President?"

"You've read it too?" Ye Huan was surprised.

"| follow it every day, but..."

Su Qingging’s face turned angry again, "The author of this book, that Sugared Vinegar Carp, often says there will

be more updates, but every day there are only three Chapters, and the day before yesterday there were only

two! Outrageous!"

"Damn, really? That author is so outrageous!"

"And that author once spent an afternoon coming up with excuses for not updating more!" Su Qingging grew

even angrier.

"| just started reading this book, but you should empathize with the author more, maybe... maybe they'll surprise

us with ten Chapters one day?"

"You've got to be kidding me. If that Sugared Vinegar Carp updates ten Chapters in one day, I'll eat a ton of

reconstituted sustenance! I've been following her for two months, and five Chapters in a day is already a

miracle!"

"It can’t be that bad..."

"It definitely is!"

Su Qingging could hardly wait to flay Sugared Vinegar Carp alive!

They always promised more Chapters but failed to deliver, and even posted fewer!

Truly infuriating!
