He broke his vows for her, and a tycoon descended to earth for love.
Chapter 284 Bringing humiliation to oneself
Siyi was taken aback; she really hadn't expected to run into this woman in B City.
Of course, she didn't know the woman's name, but she was now certain that she was Jiang Yan's "wife," whom she refused to acknowledge.
However, she had just "bumped into" him at a hotel in City A late last night, so how could they "accidentally" meet again in City B early this morning?
Isn't this world a little too small?
Or was it that both meetings were intentional on her part?
After all, he and Jiang Yan had a relationship five years ago, which was known to many people in City A. It was such a coincidence that he kept running into this woman. If the first encounter was truly accidental, was this trip from City A to City B also just a simple coincidence?
Siyi wasn't an ignorant seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl. Her years of experience as a lawyer made her realize that overly deliberate friendliness from others might not necessarily be a good thing.
What's more, her identity is so sensitive!
Don't you recognize me?
Seeing that Siyi's face was calm and she seemed to have little emotion, Yingrui simply opened the car door and got out. She still had a smiling face and was exceptionally friendly. "It's me. Have you forgotten? We bumped into each other at the hotel in City A yesterday."
The other woman's enthusiasm was overwhelming, and Siyi was truly flattered. It was impossible for her to remain indifferent in the face of this woman, but she wasn't sure what her intentions were, so she decided to wait and see.
"Hello, of course I remember you." Composing herself, she smiled gracefully. "I'm so sorry about yesterday, what were you doing in B City?"
Ying Rui smiled charmingly, "My husband is here. It just so happens that my birthday is in three days, and he asked me to come and celebrate with him. I really didn't expect you to be from B City?"
Siyi's heart skipped a beat, but she still maintained a faint smile on her face and nodded calmly, "I guess so."
"Sigh, this is my first time in B City. My husband seems to be away on a business trip, so I'm left here to wait for him for three days. Now, I can't even find a place to have breakfast." Ying Rui sounded a little frustrated. She glanced at Si Yi and said somewhat shyly, "Um, since you're from B City, could you have breakfast with me? I'm a bit shy, and it's not easy to run into someone I know."
The girl looked to be only in her early twenties. Siyi smiled helplessly to herself. Listening to the meaning of what the girl had just said, she probably understood that the girl had come to find her on purpose. Was she trying to take the opportunity to get some information from her, or was she trying to show off?
I don't know why, but looking at her delicate face, which was so warm and lovely when she smiled, I felt no goodwill towards her at all.
She admitted that she wasn't a generous person, and since she had chosen to run into this mess, she knew she couldn't hide forever.
Let her go if she wants. At worst, she'll deal with whatever comes her way. If she really has ill intentions, then she thinks it's necessary for her to make Ye Siyi's stance clear to her!
"There's a restaurant around the corner; their breakfast is pretty good."
"How about this, I'll treat you to breakfast, and you can come with me."
Siyi twitched the corners of her mouth. She figured that if she said she didn't want to, this girl probably wouldn't let go. So she might as well agree readily to save time and figure out what the girl was really up to.
Five minutes later, the two were seated by the window in the restaurant. The waiter brought the menu. Since Siyi had already eaten at home and wasn't feeling well, she simply ordered a cup of coffee. The woman opposite her ordered quite a lot of things. As soon as the waiter left, Yingrui hurriedly started talking.
"I haven't introduced myself yet. My name is Ying Rui. What's yours?"
"Ye Siyi".
"Your name is so nice. By the way, what do you do?"
"lawyer."
"Wow, so you're a lawyer!" Ying Rui exclaimed excitedly, her eyes sparkling. "You're really amazing! No wonder you seem so capable and efficient; you're a lawyer! Lawyers were my idols when I was little. I used to love watching TV, and I was obsessed with 'The File of Justice' when I was in school!"
Despite the other person's seemingly "admiring" gaze, Siyi was fully aware of the situation. She simply smiled and didn't say anything more.
Ying Rui, however, was unusually talkative, bombarding Si Yi with questions, all of which were trivial. Si Yi responded half-heartedly, wondering if she was being overly sensitive.
How could a girl who is only in her early twenties be so scheming?
His eyes flashed and he caught sight of her slender, white neck, which was clean and free of the necklace from yesterday.
A slight thought crossed her mind; she was now almost certain that her previous suspicions were correct.
So she's no longer going to ignore it; she's going to launch a direct attack!
“Miss Ying, oh no, I should call you Mrs. Jiang, shouldn’t I?” Siyi tapped the side of her coffee cup lightly with her slender fingers, looking calmly at Ying Rui across from her. “Actually, I used to live in City A. City A is my hometown. Haven’t you heard of me?”
Siyi clearly felt Yingrui's eyes narrow slightly the moment she finished speaking. After all, she was still young and didn't know how to hide her emotions well.
"Oh? Really? I didn't know. Actually, I was studying abroad for several years and I only just came back."
Siyi smiled and asked, "When did Mrs. Jiang marry Mr. Jiang?"
She had been silent the whole time, only occasionally answering her own questions, but now she suddenly asked a few rather pointed questions. Ying Rui was caught off guard and only answered after a moment, "...We got married three years ago."
Siyi picked up her coffee cup and took a small sip. "Mrs. Jiang looks very young. If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Jiang should be in his mid-thirties. I've heard he has a very colorful private life, but I never imagined that a young woman in her twenties would win him over. A young girl paired with an older man, Mr. Jiang must cherish you very much, right?"
Ying Rui lacked social experience and had been pampered by her family since childhood. She had to get whatever she wanted, and even if she couldn't get it, she would do anything to get it.
Actually, she only sought out Siyi because she was convinced that she could provoke the woman and make her back down. But now, she felt like she had lost control of the situation.
Why does this woman say "Mr. Jiang" so naturally?
There seemed to be absolutely no trace of the expectation she was looking for...
Is something wrong somewhere?
“He loves me very much.” Although she had some doubts, she was not going to back down easily. “My husband has always been very good to me. I know about his past affairs, but men who do great things outside are bound to have a few women. It’s just that he hasn’t had any scandals since we got married. He says he loves me very much and will be good to me for the rest of his life.”
Siyi felt a tightness in her chest. Even if she didn't know if what Ying Rui said was true, she had to admit that when she heard Ying Rui say that Jiang Yanhui loved her very much and would treat her well for the rest of her life, she still felt sad and had an uncontrollable bitterness in her heart.
Do you love her very much?
Will he treat her well for the rest of his life?
It seems he's never said that to me before!
"Mrs. Jiang is very fortunate. But since you know Mr. Jiang, have you really never heard of the name Ye Siyi?" She was no longer going to play any more word games, finding them too boring, and decided to get straight to the point. "Mrs. Jiang, you don't seem to be wearing that necklace today. Such an expensive thing, aren't you afraid that Mr. Jiang will be unhappy if you don't wear it?"
Ying Rui was stunned by her words and subconsciously reached out to cover her neck, only then remembering that she had lost the fake one yesterday because she was too proud of herself.
Of course, at the time she was only thinking about destroying the evidence, she didn't think that much about it.
After receiving a call from Jiang Yan, she was certain that the two of them had a fight over the necklace. So, she immediately drove to B City in the middle of the night, just to deliver another blow to Ye Siyi and make her back down...
However, the current situation has completely deviated from its original course.
“Miss Ye, why do you say that? My husband doesn’t seem to have mentioned you at all.” She was already intimidated by Siyi and her speech was not as crisp as before. “As for the necklace, I took it off when I went to bed last night. I probably forgot to wear it this morning.”
Looking at her stiff expression, Siyi was completely certain that Ying Rui was coming for her!
She must be incredibly bored, but Ye Siyi doesn't have time to play such a pointless game with her!
Siyi pursed her lips, picked up the coffee cup in front of her, and swallowed the liquid at the bottom of the cup in one gulp. Then she stood up, looked down at the woman opposite her, and smiled slightly, but the smile didn't reach her eyes. "Mrs. Jiang, you really don't recognize me? I doubt it! I don't care if you're genuinely naive or pretending to be a pure white lotus. Sorry, I don't have time to play such a boring game with you. I'm not some idle person; I have my own life. If you know my background perfectly well, then you should also know why I left City A and came to City B. Actually, the man is yours now; whether you can hold onto him is up to you. Focusing solely on women is the most foolish thing to do; it's a thankless task."
"So Mrs. Jiang, please stop making trouble. I'm very busy. Also, thank you for the coffee."
Siyi stood up, and before leaving, she delivered another heavy blow to the pale-faced woman: "Also, your husband is really annoying. If you can, keep an eye on him and make sure he doesn't keep showing up in front of me. I'm really not interested in him. You'll have to put in the effort, Mrs. Jiang."
