Ye Xiandong was intending to keep watching this spectacle, but upon receiving a glance from Ye Qilan, he grudgingly backed off.

Finally, only Du Qingyu, Su Hongxing, and Ye Qilan were left in the living room.

The three remained silent, rendering the atmosphere in the living room somewhat eerie.

After a moment of silence, Du Qingyu spoke softly, “It was my fault…for slipping into the swimming pool…”

“Indeed, it was your fault. If you fell into the swimming pool by yourself, why didn’t you admit it sooner? You magnified a small issue and caused my wife to take the blame. If you’re not at fault for this situation, then who is?” Ye Qilan interrupted Du Qingyu rather harshly.

Despite her good upbringing, Du Qingyu couldn’t help but retaliate, “Ye Qilan, can you be fair? You know nothing about what really happened, yet you blindly protect her. I didn’t know that you were so irrational in the past.”

Ye Qilan raised an eyebrow, glancing at the silent Su Hongxing.

Su Hongxing sneaked a glance at him, meeting his intense gaze.

Ye Qilan took her soft, boneless hand and interlocked their fingers. With a gentle pull, he drew her to sit beside him.

“I may not have known Hongxing for long, but I trust my judgement. She is not the type to be competitive or frame others. Qingyu, I firmly believe she did not push you. Do you know why?”

Ye Qilan turned to Du Qingyu, his tone casual.

There was a flicker of mockery in Du Qingyu’s eyes, but she didn’t respond.

“Because my wife is lazy. She simply wouldn’t bother scheming against someone she’s not close to.”

Ye Qilan’s words stirred something in Su Hongxing.

That Ye Qilan understood some of her character traits in such a short time was this because of his meticulous nature or his understanding of human nature?

Perhaps even Xiao Ji, who grew up with her, wouldn’t stand up for her without questioning the situation, but Ye Qilan, who she had known for only a few days, did.

Maybe that was what made Ye Qilan so irresistible to women. When he values you, you feel like you’re the most important person to him, leaving you elated and confused.

Once you fall deeply for him, he has already moved on to a new, better pet to spoil.

This man is really dangerous. Even though she despised playboys, she found herself attracted to him.

“Indeed, she did not push me. But, she could have pulled me back, and she didn’t. That’s why I didn’t speak the truth right away. Ye Qilan, you always seek revenge for the smallest slights. This time, I was merely following your example, is there anything wrong with that?”

Having said that, Du Qingyu turned to Su Hongxing.

She was curious to see how Su Hongxing would respond this time.

Upon hearing Du Qingyu’s words, Ye Qilan looked at Su Hongxing, and asked with a faint smile, “Why didn’t you pull Du Qingyu back?”

“Madam did try to catch me, but I dodged her. Considering the situation at hand, if she had caught me, we both would have fallen into the pool. Since I couldn’t stop her fall, why should I end up in the pool too? It’s better for one person to fall into the water than for two.” Su Hongxing replied indifferently.

Moreover, falling into a swimming pool in the middle of summer wouldn’t cause any harm, even to the most delicate of women. It was such a trivial matter, yet Du Qingyu chose to blow it out of proportion.. Wasn’t that ridiculous?
