The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife
Chapter 50 - 50 50 Not Your Sister

50: Chapter 50: Not Your Sister 50: Chapter 50: Not Your Sister “I was going to ask you the same, how did you end up performing.” Su Qingyu retorted, while Ye Shikai also realized a problem: if Su Qingyu had been there the whole time, then she must have heard him say “This piece is to commemorate someone”.

Thinking about this, Ye Shikai broke out in a cold sweat.

“Sister, did you see just now?

Brother-in-law’s performance was amazing.” At this moment, Su Ziqing came out from the side, saw the somewhat surprised Ye Shikai, and quickly explained, “Brother-in-law, my sister is a well-known alumnus of Yanjing University.

The school invited quite a few alumni for the gathering tonight, and my sister had time, so she came too.”

After hearing this, Ye Shikai’s face was filled with dismay, looking at Su Ziqing who was snickering on the side, Ye Shikai suddenly understood he had been tricked by this little demon.

He didn’t believe for a second that she didn’t know Su Qingyu would come.

“Hm, the piece was indeed well-played; have you used it to deceive lots of girls before?” Su Qingyu’s face showed not a trace of admiration for Ye Shikai, instead, there was a bit of mockery.

“Sister, I think you’re just jealous.

Just now, quite a few girls confessed to brother-in-law.” Su Ziqing said with a mischievous smile, feeling secretly thrilled, as she finally had the chance to tease her older sister.

“I am not!

Qingqing, you’re getting bolder and bolder, you intentionally made me come to watch his performance today, didn’t you?” Although Su Qingyu said this, her face still reddened slightly; after all, the piece Ye Shikai played, “Love’s Romance”, would make anyone feel overwhelmingly romantic.

Although Su Qingyu was a business genius, she had zero experience in love.

She was a complete beginner when it came to romance, and just like the other girls in the audience, hearing such touching music made her heart flutter.

“Wow wow, Sister, you’re blushing.” Su Ziqing continued to tease, “So, how about it?

Was brother-in-law’s passionate confession moving?” After saying that, Su Ziqing turned to wink at Ye Shikai, who was stunned for a moment before he realized Su Ziqing must have thought the person he was referring to was Su Qingyu.

“Brother-in-law, say something.

The person you’re commemorating is my sister, isn’t it?

How come you dare not admit it in front of her?” Su Ziqing turned her head back towards Ye Shikai, but she had misunderstood.

The person Ye Shikai was referring to was indeed not Su Qingyu, but Su Ziqing had jumped to the conclusion that “this person” was Su Qingyu, thus pushing Ye Shikai into a dilemma.

To say “this person” is not Su Qingyu seemed suicidal, while saying “this person” is Su Qingyu would give Ye Shikai a sense of guilt, as he wasn’t the type to flatter any beautiful woman he met; doing so would be a desecration of his feelings.

Su Qingyu had assumed Ye Shikai would not hesitate to admit it and then brag about his guitar-playing skills, but unexpectedly, Ye Shikai just stood there, hesitating to speak and looking strange.

After a moment of struggle, he finally sighed deeply and said, “Qingyu, Qingqing, let’s go.” Having said that, he put his guitar back in its case, and without waiting for the two women, he left the venue with the case in hand.

Su Ziqing was puzzled.

Could it be that the person brother-in-law was referring to wasn’t Su Qingyu?

Impossible.

Then why didn’t he say so?

Su Qingyu was also shocked by Ye Shikai’s action and felt a pang of loss in her heart.

Why wouldn’t he say it?

Was it because of her, or was “this person” really not her…

Ye Shikai left the venue and walked alone on the campus.

Night had already fallen, and under the street lights, his figure appeared particularly slender, his melancholy plainly visible.

He still couldn’t forget her.

Her sudden departure without a word eight years ago, and the complete loss of contact—perhaps it was the cruelest joke fate had played on him.

At this moment, everything felt so real yet so illusory.

He pulled out a yellowed postcard from the box and stared intently at the neat fountain pen writing, his eyes slightly red, his gaze dim.

Why did you have to leave, vanish so suddenly from my life…

Ye Shikai left Yanjing University, hailed a taxi outside, and returned to Lishi Garden, going straight to his room.

He was a bit tired, staring at the box in his hands lost in thought, when the sound of a door opening interrupted his reverie.

Su Ziqing tiptoed in, gently sitting beside Ye Shikai and asked, “Brother-in-law, what’s wrong with you today, are you feeling unwell?”

“What could be wrong with me, wasn’t my guitar playing quite good?”

“Hmph, stinky brother-in-law, stop pretending with me.

I’m talking about why didn’t you take the opportunity to confess your feelings to my sister.” Su Ziqing snorted coldly, her eyes fixed intently on Ye Shikai.

Perhaps out of guilt, Ye Shikai avoided her gaze, turning his head away.

“I’m not ready yet, and besides, I guess your sister isn’t prepared to be confessed to by anyone either.”

“Brother-in-law, do you think I’m a child?

You’re just fobbing me off.

The real reason you don’t confess to her has nothing to do with that, right?” Su Ziqing looked at him seriously, which was quite surprising.

Su Ziqing, usually so playful and laughing, was now incredibly earnest.

“Brother-in-law, tell me the truth, is the person you mentioned…

my sister?” Su Ziqing leaned forward slightly, her words carrying an insistent tone.

Ye Shikai felt he could no longer dodge the question, and he let out a long sigh, “Qingqing, the person I was talking about…

indeed is not your sister.”

After hearing this, Su Ziqing seemed to be struck by a bolt from the blue, trembling slightly as she said, “You have another woman outside,” her tone carrying a faint chill.

It seemed Su Ziqing was truly angry, with Ye Shikai admitting he had another woman he loved, and it was not Su Qingyu.

“No, I haven’t been in contact with her for eight years.” Ye Shikai spoke the truth; he indeed hadn’t had any contact with her for eight years, not since the day she left without saying goodbye, which then led him to join the military and later go abroad to become the Netherworld King.

“Who is she?

It’s been eight years and you still haven’t forgotten her.” Hearing Ye Shikai’s response, Su Ziqing also breathed a sigh of relief, her tone softening a bit.

A person one hasn’t contacted in eight years is basically impossible to meet again, and the threat she posed was far less than that of a mistress.

“She…

she was my first love,” Ye Shikai continued, his eyes becoming sad when he mentioned “first love.” Indeed, almost all men find their first love hard to let go of.

The affection from that time was simple, without so many whys and other factors.

One didn’t need to consider material possessions, didn’t need to factor in the outside world.

The two of them were pure like a blank sheet of paper.

Boys would write love letters to girls, buy them their desired gifts, and girls would blush for a long time because of a single caring word from the boys.

Childhood sweethearts, innocent young love—first love was just that simple, yet so unforgettable.
