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

Chapter 118: The Secret Relationship Between the Two Continues to Be Exposed.

Jiang Yanhui, of course, had no idea that Siyi hadn't slept at all.

She took a shower and lay in bed, lost in thought, when her phone suddenly rang. She picked it up, glanced at the caller ID, and immediately shoved it under her pillow. She genuinely believed he would keep calling, at least like the past few days when he would call several times a day. When she didn't answer, he kept calling until she had no choice but to turn off her phone.

She was even thinking to herself that if he called a second time, she would reluctantly answer and see what he had to say. But the phone only rang once and then stopped. Siyi, unwilling to give up, pulled her phone out from under her pillow and checked it; there was clearly only one missed call.

She gritted her teeth, almost in a fit of pique, and shut down the phone.

I left my phone on the bedside table.

I pulled the blanket over my head and forced myself to sleep!

She didn't sleep well. Just as dawn was breaking, she was awakened by that familiar nightmare. After finally catching her breath, she got out of bed and went to the kitchen to drink a glass of water.

It was only a little past five o'clock.

Thinking that she wouldn't be able to fall asleep even if she lay in bed for a while, she went to the study to look at some materials. It wasn't until around 7 o'clock that she remembered she had to go for a follow-up appointment today.

After quickly packing up, she prepared to go to the hospital. Halfway there, she remembered that she hadn't been to see her father for the past few days because of her health, so she decided to go see him first.

She realized she hadn't visited her father for a few days, and it wouldn't be right to go empty-handed, so she decided to go to the fruit supermarket to buy some of her father's favorite fruits to take with her.

She parked her car on the side of the road, got out, and went to find a fruit supermarket. As she passed a newspaper stand, a casual glance revealed a bold headline accompanied by numerous medium-sized photos.

She realized that it had been a few days since she had visited her father.

It wouldn't be good to go empty-handed, so she decided to go to the fruit supermarket to buy some of her father's favorite fruits to take with her. She parked the car on the side of the road, got out, and went to find the fruit supermarket. As she passed a newspaper stand, a casual glance revealed a large, eye-catching headline accompanied by numerous medium-sized photos.

She reached out uncontrollably and grabbed the newspaper.

Another eye-catching headline: Yan Shao secretly meets with Yu Meiren late at night, their underground relationship continues to be exposed.

Below were photos, some of the two embracing, others of him holding her, and a comparison between two photos revealed that the hat that had previously been on Yu Caiyi's head was now on Jiang Yanhui's head...

"Miss, five yuan a copy, do you want it?" The newspaper owner saw that she was holding the newspaper tightly and thought she wanted to buy it, so he came out to greet her.

Siyi remained stunned for a long time. Seeing that she didn't move and was just staring intently at the newspaper in her hand, the shopkeeper tilted his head back to look and chuckled. "Sigh, young people these days love reading this kind of news. I sold about ten copies this morning. This Young Master Yan is so dashing, and this Yu Meiren is a celebrity in the entertainment industry. Every time they make a splash, the newspaper's sales skyrocket. Just last time there was some news about their son. But speaking of which, these two are really a perfect match, a handsome man and a beautiful woman."

Siyi didn't hear what the boss was saying at all. She only felt a buzzing in her ears, as if someone was saying something, but her mind was blank. Finally, the boss reached out and nudged her, and she vaguely came back to her senses. "...What?"

The shopkeeper was surprised to see that she looked very pale. "Miss, you look very pale. Are you alright?"

"N-nothing," Siyi replied instinctively, then suddenly remembered something, "How much is this?"

"Five yuan, you can pay by scanning the code."

She reached for her phone, but as her hand went out, she realized it was trembling. The newspaper slipped through her fingers and landed at her feet.

She hurriedly squatted down to pick it up, but unexpectedly, the purse in her hand fell again, and the coins inside clattered all over the ground.

"Oh, miss, how could you not be careful? You've dropped all this money." Seeing this, the shopkeeper kindly bent down to help her pick it up.

Siyi stood up blankly, clutching the newspaper tightly, and walked dejectedly towards her car. The shopkeeper picked up the coins and realized that she was already far away. After thinking for a moment, he quickly chased after her.

"Miss, don't you want your money back?"

Siyi shook her head absentmindedly, said nothing, opened the car door and got in. The owner, seeing her acting strangely, thought she was a little abnormal, muttered a few words, and then turned and left.

Siyi sat alone in the car, the newspaper on the passenger seat. Looking at the photos, she felt the bottle of milk she'd drunk that morning was still stuck in her throat. It was clearly pure milk, but the taste was sour, and the sourness brought tears to her eyes.

She felt a tightness in her chest, as if a large stone was lodged there. She felt uncomfortable and couldn't breathe, so she reached out and pounded her chest hard. But as she pounded, she was startled to find something wet on the back of her hand. When she tried to look closely, she found her vision was blurred...

Why are you so sad?

She already knew yesterday, didn't she? Last night, he answered her call and, disregarding his own safety, sped off in his car to find her. She already knew, but why did she feel such a heart-wrenching pain when she saw this news?

So it turns out... so it turns out that what she had been unwilling to admit all along was that her feelings for him had long been beyond her control.

Because I care, I care too much, that's why I feel so bad.

Something deep inside was shattering, as if the whole world was gradually falling apart. Since he already had a woman he loved, why did he have to provoke her? Did Ye Siyi's face simply say that she was the kind of woman he could use and then discard?

She wiped away her tears, bit her lip, tore the newspaper in half, stuffed it into the glove compartment, forced herself to calm down, started the engine, and drove to the hospital.

When she arrived at the hospital, she made sure to look in the mirror to make sure there was nothing wrong with her face before getting out of the car and heading towards the ward. However, she saw a familiar figure at one end of the corridor.

Guan Fengru was wearing only a thin shirt, her profile somewhat somber, and she was standing by the window making a phone call. Siyi subconsciously softened her steps, intending to wait until Guan finished her call before greeting her, so she stood there for a moment, only to overhear her say...

"...Give me a little more time. He's not feeling well right now, and I'm afraid he can't handle too much stress... Yes, I'll talk to him about it. Don't worry, now that I've made my decision, I won't look back. I'll make sure everything else is taken care of..."

Suddenly, there was a "thump" behind her, and Guan Fengru turned around abruptly.

Siyi stood there stiffly, staring at her without moving. To her left, along the perimeter of the long corridor, were windows that flickered open, all wide. Various branches from the garden climbed over the windowsills, within easy reach. She was pressed against the corner of the wall, her whole body trembling slightly.

Guan Fengru looked at her, paused for a moment, and said to the person on the other end of the phone, "I have something to do. I'll call you back later."

Guan Fengru closed her phone and took a step. Si Yi saw her move and reacted instantly. Almost at the same time, she turned around and left.

Seeing her turn to leave, Guan Fengru's heart sank slightly, and she quickly followed. Hearing the footsteps behind her, Siyi quickened her pace. Guan Fengru knew she must have overheard her words and was now thinking of something else, so she became even more anxious, calling out as she chased after her, "Siyi, wait! Don't go! Siyi, listen to Mom, things aren't as you heard… Siyi…"

Siyi was terrified of what her mother would say to her. She didn't want to hear anything, she didn't want to know anything. She walked faster and faster, but unexpectedly bumped into Ye Zhenghao who was coming from the stairwell.

She wanted to go and be married off. Upon seeing the two people walking one after the other, and hearing his mother's shouts, Ye Zhenghao quickly grabbed Siyi's shoulder, "What's wrong? Mom's calling you from behind, didn't you hear?"

Siyi couldn't even manage a fake smile now; she could only lower her eyes and gently shake her head.

Ye Zhenghao wasn't stupid, of course. He noticed that something was wrong with her expression, so he looked down at her and asked, "Siyi, what's wrong? Look up at your older brother."

"I'm fine." She didn't look up, but her voice was muffled. Ye Zhenghao frowned. "You're fine like this? What's wrong with you?"

Before Siyi could answer, Guan Fengru caught up. Seeing that Ye Zhenghao had stopped Siyi, she breathed a sigh of relief. "Zhenghao, go inside and check on your father. I have something to say to your sister."

Ye Zhenghao naturally noticed that something was off between the two of them. He had sensed it before; Siyi used to be very clingy to her mother, but lately she had become unusually distant. Seeing the strange expressions on their faces, he frowned even more deeply. "Mom, you and Siyi…"

"It's alright, you go in first." Guan Fengru interrupted him, glanced at Ye Zhenghao, gave him a reassuring smile, and said, "I need to talk to your sister alone. It's a private matter. You go and keep an eye on your father. If anything happens, we'll be in the next room."

Ye Zhenghao thought for a moment and nodded. Before leaving, he thought for a moment and said to Siyi, "Have a good talk with Mom. Talk things out calmly and don't throw a tantrum, okay?"

The eldest brother always believed that he was the one in the wrong between his mother and himself, and that she was the one throwing a tantrum. For the first time, she realized what it meant to suffer in silence.

As soon as Ye Zhenghao left, Guan Fengru pulled Siyi into the room next door where she was resting. As soon as the door closed, she couldn't wait to say, "Siyi, listen to your mother. The phone call you heard just now wasn't what you thought."

"Is it?"

Siyi's expression calmed down at this moment, and even her tone was, "Mom, do you know what I'm thinking?"

"I know what you're thinking. Mom can't explain too much to you right now, but you'll understand someday."

"Mom, I don't want to understand anything. I really don't want to understand anything about a woman who has cheated on her husband and is about to abandon him and her children. I don't have the magnanimity to understand her! Can you honestly say that you weren't talking to Jiang Jizhen on that phone call just now? Can you honestly say that the person you said was unwell wasn't Dad? If you have a clear conscience, then fine, take out your phone and call again. If it really wasn't Jiang Jizhen, then I'll believe you!"

“Siyi…”

"Mom, give me your phone." Siyi stubbornly reached out and asked for her phone.

Guan Fengru frowned, but subconsciously took two steps back. She looked at her aggressive daughter with some difficulty, "Siyi, the phone... Mom can't give you the phone."

Siyi finally let out a cold laugh, "Since that's the case, why bother explaining to me? Do you think I have 'I'm a fool' written all over my face? That's why you all think I'm so easy to fool! Saying one thing to your face and another behind your back, please, don't be so disgusting! If you dare to do it, why don't you dare to admit it? Why did you have to send my brother away? You're going to be with that man sooner or later, so just tell my brother directly! I want to see if he can understand you!"
