My Ex-Husband Is Proposing Again

Chapter 431: Chapter 431: Ye Qilan, Your Era of Domination has Passed_1

“What’s wrong with her ID? Point it out to me!” Ye Qilan demanded in a cold tone.

“Miss Su’s documents are not standard, it needs to be reissued,” the staff member offered a casual excuse.

They were instructed specifically not to issue a marriage certificate for Ye Qilan and Su Hongxing.

This order came directly from a high-ranking official, citing pressure from above. To keep their own jobs, they must not allow the couple to get married.

Ye Qilan scoffed, throwing the documents onto the face of the staff member: “Point out to me exactly where they are nonstandard!”

The staff member was also provoked, slamming the table: “It simply can’t be done! This is a government department, it’s not a place where you can act as you please. Comrade, creating a scene will not help.”

Ye Qilan had never been so humiliated.

At this moment, Su Hongxing twisted the knife further, “Remember just a few months ago when you brought me here to get our marriage license? Back then, the mighty Ye Si had the whole civil affairs office cleared, everyone made way for us. Within such a short period of time, you’ve now been reduced to being ridiculed and belittled by a mere staff member. Ye Qilan, it seems you are nothing without the Ye Family.”

Nothing hurts more than being looked down upon by a woman you care for.

Ye Qilan knew the importance of power from a young age; after all, that’s the environment he grew up in. His goal had always been to reach the pinnacle of power.

But the sudden appearance of Su Hongxing had thrown his life into disarray.

Now, at this moment, her words were like a dagger stabbing directly into his heart.

Ye Qilan had his pride. He could not allow others, particularly Su Hongxing, to laugh at him.

In a stoic silence, he dragged Su Hongxing out of the civil affairs office: “So Su Hongxing, you’ve become quite the powerhouse now.”

All she had to do was say a word and Cao Zhen would do her bidding without condition.

That he couldn’t obtain their marriage certificate today was undoubtedly due to Cao Zhen causing trouble behind the scenes.

If he still had the backing of the Ye Family, Cao Zhen would dare not treat him this way. But the issue was, the head of the Ye Family had abandoned him.

As Su Hongxing had rightly said, without the Ye Family, he, Ye Si, was nothing.

“Ye Qilan, your days of unbridled dominance are over.” Su Hongxing said lightly with a smile, “Haven’t you noticed? Since my arrival, I have thrown your orderly life into chaos. Without me, you would still be the respected Ye Si. Without me, Ye Xiandong wouldn’t have replaced you as the heir. If I were you, I would keep my distance from Su Hongxing. I honestly advise you not to lose more because of me.”

Ye Qilan was quietly contemplative.

Wasn’t he fully aware of the truth in Su Hongxing’s words?

Yes, without Su Hongxing meddling, he would by now have inherited the Ye Family, and married a lady of renown.

But he may still be living a life akin to that of a walking corpse, stopping at nothing to achieve his goals.

Would that Ye Qilan be considered happy?

“It doesn’t matter if we can’t get our license today, we can still hold our wedding. Even if we can’t register in the country, we can do it abroad in the future.” Ye Qilan tightly held Su Hongxing’s hand: “I’m very stubborn, once I decide something, I see it through. Once I decide on someone, I won’t easily let go. Your advice is useless, I will not let you go, give up that idea.”
