Yan Niannian quickly took a step back.

She looked up.

His eyes were bloodshot.

Unbeknownst to them, they were filled with intense hatred.

Without saying a word, Yan Niannian raised her hand and slapped Zhuo Yuchen hard across the face.

Snapped!

A crisp sound was heard.

Zhuo Yuchen tilted his head sharply, and five finger marks immediately became clearly visible.

The reflection on his handsome features was very distinct.

Zhuo Yuchen was stunned by the blow.

A look of shock flashed in his deep eyes.

He looked up at Yan Niannian in disbelief, and murmured, "Niannian, you..."

He didn't understand why Nian Nian wanted to hit him.

"Zhuo Yuchen, you're not even human."

"Do you know that you paid for Fei Siyu's treatment, causing her to lose a leg?"

"You are so cruel."

"The thing I regret most in my life is meeting you and then marrying you."

"And all of this was precisely the beginning of all my tragedies."

"Zhuo Yuchen, I hate you, and I never want to see you again."

Tears welled up in her eyes, both for herself and for Fei Siyu.

Overwhelmed with grief and indignation.

Yan Niannian practically roared these words through clenched fists.

Then, not wanting to look at the man again, he turned and ran away.

"Niannian..."

Zhuo Yuchen felt ice-cold all over, and stood stiffly in place.

He wanted to catch up with them.

but……

People coming and going on the street were all attracted by this scene.

They couldn't help but turn their heads to look over.

So in the end, Zhuo Yuchen stopped.

Only after Yan Niannian's figure had completely disappeared from sight did Zhuo Yuchen turn around and walk towards his car.

Just now, Niannian said that it was he who attacked the Fei family, which is why Fei Siyu lost a leg.

What happened?

Although he extremely disliked Fei Siyu.

She hated that he harbored inappropriate feelings for Nian Nian and that Nian Nian always tried every means to get close to him.

but……

He would never stoop to using this to attack the Fei family.

……

Zhuo's Group.

It would be incredibly easy to investigate.

Half an hour later, the assistant suddenly knelt down in front of Zhuo Yuchen.

Looking at him, Zhuo Yuchen's face was extremely gloomy.

He gritted his teeth and said each word slowly and deliberately, "You were the one who attacked the Fei family?"

"……Yes!"

Knowing he couldn't hide it any longer, the assistant had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer.

"Why?" Zhuo Yuchen's eyes flashed sharply, and he slammed his hand hard on the table in anger.

His chest heaved.

This assistant has been with him for many years and has always been loyal. Why is he being disobedient this time?

They actually did this kind of thing behind my back.

"I..." the assistant gave a wry smile.

Immediately, he revealed what he had overheard Old Master Fei and Yan Niannian saying behind his back.

Grandpa Fei desperately wanted Yan Niannian to be his granddaughter-in-law.

He deliberately mentioned all the good things Fei Siyu had done for Yan Niannian, hoping to influence Yan Niannian's opinion.

This made it impossible for her to refuse, thus leading her to accept Fei Siyu.

But he knew how much Zhuo Yuchen cared about Yan Niannian.

Therefore, he couldn't just stand by and watch this happen, so he secretly took action against the Fei family while he was in Xiaojun's hometown rescuing Yan Niannian.

After the assistant finished speaking, Zhuo Yuchen remained silent.

Chest feels tight.

The reason why the assistant has stayed by my side for so long is because he is loyal enough.

They are so loyal that they would give their lives to protect their lord.

But now, it is precisely this loyalty that has hurt Niannian and brought him endless troubles.

Should he be blamed?

"Mr. Zhuo, it's all my fault, please punish me!"

"No matter what you do, Mr. Zhuo, I will have no complaints."

The assistant looked sincerely apologetic.

"Enough! Enough!" Zhuo Yuchen weakly raised his hand and waved it at him. "What difference does it make whether you do it or I do it?"

"You go out!"

"President Zhuo..."

The assistant moved his lips.

He wanted to say something more, but judging from Zhuo Yuchen's appearance, he probably wanted to have some peace and quiet.

So he got up and slowly walked out of the office, closing the door behind him.

Zhuo Yuchen was the only one left in the huge office.

Empty.

The silence was unsettling.

Zhuo Yuchen raised his hand and rubbed his throbbing temples.

His brows furrowed in despair.

Niannian's deep affection for Fei Siyu made him feel jealous.

But what can be done?

He couldn't look directly at the disgust and hatred in Yan Niannian's eyes.

The only thing we can do now is to make up for it as soon as possible.

He can help the Fei family restore it to its former glory.

Having made up his mind, Zhuo Yuchen picked up the phone on the table...

……

That evening, a torrential downpour suddenly began.

The sky was overcast.

The rumbling of thunder continued to echo from the distant horizon.

It gives people a dull and oppressive feeling.

At that moment, an uninvited guest arrived at the orphanage.

assistant.

He stood alone downstairs from Yan Niannian's dormitory without an umbrella, calling out, "Miss Yan! Miss Yan!"

With his head tilted back, letting the raindrops slide down his face, the assistant called out loudly.

"Ok?"

Upon hearing the sound, Yan Niannian quickly walked to the window.

Reach out and open the window.

Yan Niannian peeked over.

Seeing her assistant, who was completely soaked and looked like a drowned rat, Yan Niannian couldn't help but frown. "What are you doing?"

“Ms. Yan, I’m here to explain.” The assistant wiped the rain off his face. “President Zhuo was unaware of the attack on the Fei family; it was something I arranged privately.”

"Because I couldn't stand that Grandpa Fei wanted you to be his granddaughter-in-law, I secretly made my move when President Zhuo left to rescue you in the village."

"I never imagined it would cause Fei Siyu to break a leg."

"It's all my fault. I'm willing to do anything to make up for it and compensate for it."

"But this matter really has nothing to do with President Zhuo; he was unaware of it."

"Miss Yan, please, don't blame Mr. Zhuo."

The assistant rattled off a long explanation.

But he didn't know whether Yan Niannian believed him or not.

At this moment, she simply lowered her eyes and looked at him coldly.

After a long silence, Yan Niannian said calmly, "You can leave now."

"No! Miss Yan, I will not leave until you explain things clearly."

The assistant was about to say, "If you won't forgive President Zhuo, I won't leave," but he changed his mind at the last minute.

He was afraid of upsetting Yan Niannian.

only……

What he didn't know was that this action had already greatly displeased Yan Niannian.

"If you don't leave, I'm going to call the police."

Yan Niannian's voice turned cold.

The assistant shook his head.

He didn't speak, but remained kneeling on the ground without moving.

Now, Yan Niannian was even more annoyed.

Just as they froze, a series of steady footsteps sounded.

Zhuo Yuchen held a black umbrella in his hand, his shoes splashing through the water as he slowly walked in.

Yan Niannian's eyes lit up when she saw him.

She shouted, "Zhuo Yuchen, take your men away right now, don't let him continue to go crazy here."

Zhuo Yuchen looked up, his infatuated gaze lingering on Yan Niannian's delicate face for a moment before finally landing on his assistant.

"Sigh!" Zhuo Yuchen sighed softly, "Why are you doing this to yourself?"

"Get up, let's go!"

"No!" The assistant shook his head.

This was the first time he had defied him, showing a rare stubbornness.
