He broke his vows for her, and a tycoon descended to earth for love.

Jiang Yanhui's brows furrowed more and more tightly.

Finally, he turned the steering wheel, stepped on the brake, and stopped the car on the side of the road.

He gripped the steering wheel with both hands and spoke in a deep voice after a long while, "That's enough, Caiyi. Stop talking. You're a mother now. You should know what's more important."

Upon hearing this, Yu Caiyi became even more agitated. "I don't know! When I was pregnant, I never intended to give birth to Jiajia. It's not my child with you, I didn't want it! But you said that the child is innocent, that we shouldn't abandon him."

“I listened to you, but now I feel like I’m the most innocent one! You promised me you’d do anything to make me happy! But I’m not happy, I’m not happy at all, you know that? How could you be so cruel? Jiajia is four and a half years old, and you dumped him on me, dumped me on Jiang Yansen, while you’re holding another woman… Yan Hui, why are you doing this to me…”

She covered her chest with both hands, looking at him with tears in her eyes.

Jiang Yan felt a surge of irritation rising in his heart. His thin lips were pressed tightly together, like an extremely sharp straight line. Those who knew him knew that his patience had run out at this moment.

Yu Caiyi naturally knew this, but at this moment, the alcohol in her system seemed to embolden her. She suddenly leaped up and threw herself into his arms, tilting her head back to kiss his lips.

Jiang Yan glanced back, her expression darkening. She subtly turned her face away, one hand already gripping Caiyi's chin. "Caiyi, you should know when to stop."

Yu Caiyi was stunned for a moment, then burst into a hysterical laugh, tears streaming down her face, blurring her vision. "I'll stop now... Haha, you actually told me to stop now. Yan Hui, is that Ye Siyi really that good? Is she so good that you've even forgotten me? Is she so good that you'd do anything for her? Is she so good that you'd rather give up your promises to me?"

Jiang Yan turned around, wincing in pain, but still patiently explained to her, "Caiyi, I made no promises to you. You were indeed wronged back then, and I did say that I was willing to do anything as long as you were happy. But you should know that 'anything' isn't what you're thinking. Ever since you and Jiang Yansen... it's been impossible between us for a long time. Don't keep chasing after things that are already in the past. I can sense that Jiang Yansen wasn't indifferent to you. He went to such lengths to get you back then simply because he truly loved you. And Jiajia, you always say he's four and a half years old and understands things. Don't say that every time. He's your son, and you know very well that you have feelings for him."

"I don't want him! I only want you!"

Yu Caiyi frantically tried to hug him, but Jiang Yan couldn't push her away. The carriage was small to begin with, so he had no choice but to shout sternly, "Enough, Caiyi! What kind of trouble are you going to cause? You're already my sister-in-law!"

Although it was unfair to her, sometimes those involved are blinded by their own perspective, while bystanders see things more clearly. Besides, Jiajia is already so old. Even if he were selfish, he really didn't want to get involved between them anymore. Moreover, he had inquired about Jiang Yansen's situation these past few days. Jiang Yansen had never been lustful, but he was particularly fond of Yu Caiyi. As a man himself, how could he not know what that meant?

Upon hearing the words "sister-in-law," Yu Caiyi trembled violently, staring at him in disbelief. "What did you say?"

“I’m sorry, Caiyi, I can’t give you what you want. All I can do is ensure that you and Jiajia are safe and sound. You should understand that Jiajia is my nephew.”

Yu Caiyi pushed him away violently, breathing heavily, "What did you say? I'm your sister-in-law? Fine, tell me honestly, are you really in love with Ye Siyi?"

That woman, it's always that woman. Before she appeared, Yan Hui would call her at least once a week. Before, when she was still in the United States, he would fly over to see her from time to time. He never did that. Now that she's in the same city as him, he doesn't even have time to look at her.

Jiang Yan replied calmly, "This matter has nothing to do with her, you don't need to involve her."

"How could it be unrelated?"

Yu Caiyi's face was contorted with pain. "Do you know that you've changed? Don't think I don't know what you've done for her! Even if, as you say, it's impossible for us, I'd rather you have affairs with countless women than see you doting on only one. At least that way, I'll feel like your heart is still with me..."

“A fief…” Jiang Yan said helplessly, “Don’t be like this.”

"Tell me, are you really in love with her?" She insisted on getting an answer.

Seeing her heartbroken face as she cried, he finally sighed, reached out and pulled out two tissues, handing them to her. His deep voice, each word like a sharp sword, pierced her heart.

"I don't want to deceive you. Ye Siyi is a very important person to me."

Yu Caiyi probably didn't expect him to actually say that someone so important.

Very important person...

She threw the two tissues at his face like a madwoman.

But the light tissue still hung limply in mid-air. She couldn't sit down any longer, turned around and pushed open the car door, but her high heels twisted as she got out of the car.

She walked out without a word, stood by the car door, clutching her bag in one hand and leaning against the door with the other. Turning her face, she said bitterly, "Jiang Yan Hui, I hate you! When you were doting on that woman, you were stabbing me in the heart with a knife. I will never forgive you in this lifetime!"

With a bang, she slammed the car door shut and staggered forward.

Jiang Yan frowned as she watched her walk further and further away, but in the end she didn't chase after her. Some things, once you've experienced the pain, are over. Since she had already decided to let go, there was no need to give the other person any false hope.

Let her hate if she wants to; after all, he has wronged her for the rest of his life...

He took out his phone, dialed a number, and the call was answered after two rings. The low male voice on the other end carried the familiar coldness, "In such a good mood, calling me so late at night?"

Jiang Yan was too lazy to waste any more words with him and went straight to the point: "XX Road, come here yourself, or send someone over. Caiyi is on the road alone; she's drunk."

After saying that, he hung up the phone without waiting for the other person to say anything more.

He turned the car around, stepped on the gas, and drove until he reached a corner before stopping. He then took out a cigarette and smoked it quietly for a while.

That feeling of unease seemed to dissipate into the air along with the pungent smell of smoke on his lips. He squinted, one hand resting on the car window, casually flicking the cigarette butt with his index finger, when suddenly a soft, sweet female voice reached his ears.

"...Can't you smoke less? It's bad for your health!"

"...Don't you know that secondhand smoke is harmful to health? I care about my own health. You keep smoking when you're with me, and I don't know how much secondhand smoke I inhale every day!"

In the darkness, a slow smile curved his thin lips. He turned his head to look at the half-smoked cigarette between his fingers, then tossed it into a roadside trash can.

He closed the car window, took out his phone to dial Siyi's number, and stepped on the gas.

I wonder what that little stray cat is doing now?

He really wants to see her now.

But the phone rang for a long time without anyone answering. He thought about it and figured she was probably already asleep, so he decided not to call anymore. He had originally been driving towards her apartment building, but he turned the car around and drove to his own place instead.

Never mind, I'll go see her tomorrow.
