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

In May, City C is in the middle of the plum rain season, and the rainfall is particularly heavy.

The fine, slanting drizzle lasted all day.

It was a rare sunny day, yet the heat was so intense it felt like we couldn't breathe.

Jiang Yan sat in the car, looking at the street scene outside the window.

This trip was the longest, a full two months. The city has indeed changed a lot; everywhere is being demolished and rebuilt. The bustling activity has become so unbearable that it's almost boring.

He rested his chin on one hand and gripped the steering wheel with the other, finally driving through the bustling city center. The car eventually stopped in front of a small alley. He got out, put his hands in his pockets, and walked inside.

This place remains unchanged; the only change is that the leaves on the trees on both sides of the alley have sprouted tender green buds.

Because it had been soaked by rain, water droplets were still hanging down, and occasionally a few would fall down and land right on his collar.

Finally, it slowly seeped in and touched his skin, feeling slightly cool.

There is only one family living in this alley. It is a courtyard house with exquisite decorations. Of course, Jiang Yanhui arranged all of this herself.

Because his mother lived there.

Jiang Yan stood at the entrance of the courtyard, looking at the two huge pomegranate trees inside the wall. The quiet and blue sky of the city in this season made the branches of the trees on the wall look like a painting.

He took a deep breath before ringing the doorbell. Someone opened the door and immediately beamed with joy upon seeing him. "Young Master, you've arrived! Madam has been talking about you. Please come in, Young Master."

Jiang Yan walked in. The courtyard wasn't very big, but there were many trees. He saw a figure sitting under the shade of a tree, wearing a plaid long dress and a shawl draped over her shoulders. The recliner swayed back and forth, and her eyes were staring blankly at the blue sky, but without any focus.

"Madam hasn't been in a good mood these past few days; she must be missing you."

Jiang Yan nodded and hummed in agreement. The aunt then asked, "Young Master, have you eaten?"

"have eaten."

His voice was a little hoarse, and he kept looking at the woman on the recliner as he spoke. "Go in and rest. I'll sit with my mother for a while. I have other things to do this afternoon and I'll be heading back to City A soon."

The aunt glanced at him a couple more times, looking like she wanted to say something but hesitated, but in the end she responded and turned to do other things.

Jiang Yan walked over slowly, and there was a stone table next to the recliner.

He casually sat down, leaning over the woman on the recliner, and suddenly gave her a gentle smile. "Mom, Yan is back to see you. I've been too busy lately, so I haven't had time to come see you. Are you angry?"

The woman on the recliner didn't respond at all, remaining in the same position, staring blankly at the blue sky above.

Jiang Yan reached out and pulled her shawl up a little, her deep voice soft and gentle, “I know you won’t be angry. You’d never be angry with me, right? I just happened to be passing by today to see you. I’ll be very busy these days, so please don’t miss me. I’ll come see you when I’m done with my work.”

He slowly squatted down, finally reaching out to tightly grasp his mother's hand, and said slowly, "Mom, remember what I'm saying now. I will help you get revenge for all the injustices you've suffered."

…………

After another busy week, Siyi had just finished dealing with a new case. When she came out of the court, she took out her phone and saw several missed calls, all from Zheng Muyan.

Actually, the two haven't been in contact for a long time since Zheng Muyan said those things to her last time.

Siyi hesitated for a moment, then returned the call.

"Senior brother, were you looking for me?"

Zheng Muyan was probably still in his office when Siyi heard him whisper a few words to the person next to him before saying to her, "I haven't contacted you during this time, and you haven't contacted me either. Junior sister, we should also cultivate our relationship."

His half-joking words made Siyi feel a little awkward. "Senior brother, I..."

"I was just kidding."

Knowing her temperament well, he interrupted her with a smile, "I know you've been busy with a case lately. Isn't today your last court appearance? Whether you win or not, I'd like to treat you to a meal."

"Senior brother, there's really no need to go to so much trouble—"

"Sigh, are you still thinking of rejecting me? We haven't seen each other for almost half a month, have we? Also, I'm not just inviting you. I have a few friends in the legal profession to introduce you to. It will be helpful in your future career in this field."

Since he's said that, it seems a bit unreasonable for Siyi to refuse again.

So I agreed.

Before hanging up, I thought for a moment and asked, "Then I'll bring a friend along. I haven't seen her in a long time, so we can go out and have some fun together."

"Okay."

After hanging up, she tried calling Lin Piaoyun, but the call didn't go through.

She called several times but no one answered, so she finally gave up.

Siyi went home for a while. Everyone in the house except the maid had gone out. She took a shower, changed her clothes, and seeing that it was almost time, she went to keep her appointment.

When the car arrived at its destination, the city lights were already on.

As night falls, the city sheds its hustle and bustle, adorned with the brilliance of the night, and forever retains its boundless vitality.

Siyi parked her car in the parking lot, and just as she picked up her bag and got out of the car, she saw a familiar figure bending down to get out of a black Bentley in another part of the parking lot.

A moment later, the other car door was opened, and a tall, well-built man got out of the car.

Siyi subconsciously moved closer to the car, and upon closer inspection, she saw that it was indeed Lin Piaoyun, and the man standing next to her was Yu Chengfeng.

I don't know what Yu Chengfeng said to her as he turned to the side, but they were quite a distance apart.

Siyi noticed his flippant expression, and Piaoyun, though reluctant, still followed him timidly into the elevator.

A thought struck her, and she took off after them, only to see the elevator stop at the floor she and Zheng Muyan had agreed upon.

She took out her phone again and dialed Lin Piaoyun's number, but it still didn't go through.

When the elevator came down, she quickly stepped into it. As the double doors were slowly closing, a foot suddenly came in, a shiny leather shoe, stuck between the doors and dangling.

The double doors reopened, and a sweet, delicate female voice drifted out—

"Oh, Young Master Yan, you're so annoying! So tonight... you'll have to keep me company, right?"

Siyi's eyes twitched twice. She looked up and, sure enough, saw the man standing at the elevator entrance.

Jiang Yan was wearing a light blue casual suit and white trousers.

He exuded an exceptionally alluring and languid charm.

A charming woman was hanging on his arm. He said something, and the woman blushed and kept acting coquettishly.

Every time I see him, the woman beside him is never the same.

I really admire him.
