My Ex-Husband Is Proposing Again

Su Hongxing immediately nodded, “It looks exactly like it.”
Her answer earned her a knuckle tap from Ye Qilan.
No matter how much she tried to persuade him after that, Ye Qilan insisted that he wasn’t tired or sleepy. The most absurd thing was, whenever she went anywhere, he followed her, refusing to let her out of his sight.
Su Hongxing couldn’t do anything about Ye Qilan, so she had to indulge him, coax him. And so, a day and night passed, and Ye Qilan’s eyes were not only bloodshot but his exhaustion was palpable.
Because Ye Qilan wouldn’t allow Su Hongxing to leave his side, she could only speak with the attending doctor in the ward. The doctor’s suggestion was to give Ye Qilan a sedative to help him sleep. Otherwise, his health would deteriorate. People simply cannot go without sleep; it’s unrealistic.
“Alright, then prescribe him sleeping pills.” Su Hongxing lowered her voice.
The attending doctor thought this approach would work too, so among the medications prescribed to Ye Qilan, there were indeed some sleeping pills.
Ye Qilan saw the pills Su Hongxing handed over, “These seem like sleeping pills.”
Su Hongxing pretended not to hear Ye Qilan’s words, “Ye Qilan, open your mouth. Do you know how old you are? At such an age, you still need me to feed you medicine, aren’t you ashamed?!”
Looking at Su Hongxing’s cute demeanor as she coaxed him into taking the medicine, Ye Qilan’s lips curved: “Honey, you’re so beautiful.”
“Don’t think flattering me will get you out of taking the medicine.” Su Hongxing simply pried open Ye Qilan’s mouth and tossed the medicine inside.
This time, Ye Qilan cooperated, quietly finishing the medicine, after which he said to Su Hongxing, “Sweetheart, even if you fed me arsenic, I’d swallow it willingly.”
Su Hongxing’s heart tightened as she forced a laugh, “You’re talking nonsense again, why would I feed you arsenic for no reason?”
She just wanted him to sleep peacefully. If he didn’t sleep, his body would suffer. Once his health collapsed, even these two Ye Qilans would lose this body.
“Sweetheart, have I ever told you I love you?” Ye Qilan’s eyelids were drooping yet he was still staring intently at Su Hongxing.
He didn’t want to leave her for even a moment, but he had no choice. He just wanted to live peacefully with her, was it truly this difficult?
“You’ve said it, and not just once.” Su Hongxing choked up as she replied, stroking his pallid face, “Ye Qilan, everything will be alright, trust me.”
“But you never say you love me…” The medicine started to take effect, and weariness overtook Ye Qilan, causing him to involuntarily close his eyes and mumble.
Su Hongxing’s tears flowed uncontrollably. In truth, she really was stingy, unable to utter even a simple declaration of love.
Qiao Qiao came in and saw Su Hongxing’s eyes swollen from crying, understanding how distressed Su Hongxing felt: “Su, there will be a way, the most important thing is he’s asleep now.”
“Yes, it’s good that he’s asleep.” Su Hongxing clung to Qiao Qiao’s arm, “It’s my fault he’s become like this.”
“There you go again. You were wrong, but he was too. Moreover, there were ill intentions from some people, leading both of you to face such hardships. Be thankful that even in this third lifetime, you get to reunite with him. Su, listen to me, this isn’t a big deal. Whether he’s any version of Ye Qilan, that’s still a part of Ye Qilan. It’s like what we call a split personality; no matter how they change, they’re still Ye Qilan.”
