My Ex-Husband Is Proposing Again -
Chapter 935 - 935 935 Becoming Estranged
Chapter 935: Chapter 935: Becoming Estranged Chapter 935: Chapter 935: Becoming Estranged Su Hongxing slept until midnight, then realized Qilan hadn’t returned to the room. She didn’t think too much of it and soon fell asleep again after turning over.
The next day, Qilan seemed no different.
Moreover, Qiao Qiao’s divorce case was about to start, and her attention was all on Qiao Qiao’s side.
Qiao Qiao was busy collecting evidence of Ye Xiandong’s infidelity during their marriage, while she was occupied with her concerns for Qiao Qiao, not sparing time or energy focusing on Qilan or even noticing any changes in his emotions.
It was not until three days later that she suddenly realized Qilan hadn’t shared the bed with her for several days.
In these three days, Qilan, who used to propose several times a day, hadn’t proposed to her again.
It seemed everything had returned to normal, yet everything was not normal.
Qilan was no longer clinging to her like before, nor would he make any intimate gestures toward her. Most of the time, he was just looking at her intently, yet it seemed as if he were thinking of someone else through her.
“Qilan, are you upset about something?” Su Hongxing took the initiative to talk to Qilan during lunch that day.
Qilan shook his head indifferently, “What could possibly be troubling me?”
He served some of her favorite dishes into her bowl and was solicitous, seeming no different than before.
But Su Hongxing could feel it; his attitude toward her was much more distant than before. He was keeping a proper distance, not too far, yet not close either.
“Really nothing? We are a family, you can tell me anything. I might not be capable of much, but I can be someone you confide in,” Su Hongxing encouraged him as she looked at Qilan.
When Qilan heard the words “a family”, he became slightly distracted.
To her, he was a family member, a friend, but distinctly not the man she loved. What could be more hurtful than this reality?
“Just take good care of yourself. What trouble could I have? The company is running smoothly, you and Pudding are with me, and you’re carrying my son. There’s probably no man on earth luckier than I am. If I am not content with this, perhaps the gods would take everything they have given me away,” Qilan said, focusing on feeding Pudding.
Su Hongxing stared at Qilan, trying to detect any lies on his face, to no avail.
Maybe she was overthinking? Qilan seemed fine.
“Have you been very busy recently? You haven’t returned to our room to sleep these past few days,” Su Hongxing expressed her puzzlement.
“It’s almost done. I probably won’t need to work late tonight,” Qilan replied without any change in expression.
Su Hongxing was at a loss for topics to continue the conversation, and the atmosphere became somewhat stiff.
That evening, Qilan was busy until midnight before he returned to their room to rest.
Su Hongxing had been pretending to sleep, and when Qilan came back, she breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed she had been overthinking; Qilan didn’t seem to be acting strangely.
After getting into bed, Qilan looked at Su Hongxing’s face for a while before finally lying down beside her.
Su Hongxing waited until she was sure Qilan was asleep before opening her eyes. Things were still different; he used to like kissing her whether she was awake or asleep.
In recent days, he hadn’t even kissed her forehead, and this was the clearest signal.
And she didn’t know why he had suddenly become distant. Was it because she didn’t care for him enough?
The next day Su Hongxing got up early and personally prepared breakfast.
When Qilan came downstairs carrying Pudding, he saw Su Hongxing coming out of the kitchen, holding the steaming breakfast: “It’ll be ready soon.”
