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

Mr. Ying paused abruptly as he dialed the phone. "What did you say?"

Jiang Yan was too lazy to guess their thoughts. He hadn't come here today with any intention of hiding anything. He brought Siyi here to make everything clear at once. He would never allow anyone to hurt him and his child again.

"I think your daughter knows best what I'm saying." Jiang Yan turned to look at Ying Rui, a cold smile playing on her lips. "Ying Rui, will you tell me yourself, or should I?"

Such words and actions were simply aggressive, and Ying Rui's face immediately turned pale. Her eyes flickered slightly, and even though she knew how to hide her emotions, she still showed some panic at this moment. However, she was too good at pretending, and that trace of panic disappeared in an instant, and no one present could catch it.

"I don't know what you're talking about." She clutched the hem of her clothes tightly, biting her lip and looking aggrieved. "What have I done wrong?"

She vehemently denied it, but Jiang Yan laughed instead of getting angry. "You didn't do anything?" He snorted. "Didn't you see Sisi in City A three days ago?"

Siyi took a soft breath. She knew that Jiang Yan was asking about the first time she met Ying Rui in the hotel when she returned to City A that day. She didn't want to force the young girl to admit anything, especially in the current situation. Facing her parents and being questioned so coldly by the man she liked, she must be feeling terrible.

However, recalling the fierce and aggressive demeanor of those reporters in the elevator, she couldn't swallow her anger. Even if she could overlook it herself, why should they allow them to speak of her child as worthless? 13acv.

She was also curious to hear what kind of reasons Ying Rui could come up with.

"Yes, I did meet Attorney Ye." After a moment, Ying Rui stood up, neither refuting nor denying, but calmly admitting, "I first met Attorney Ye at the hotel that day, but I didn't know her then... she is Ye Siyi. I was just accidentally bumped into by her that day. Afterwards, I saw that she looked very unwell, so I asked her a few more questions out of concern. Yan Hui, you don't suspect that I deliberately approached her with ulterior motives, do you?"

Ying Rui stared with red eyes, filled with grievance. Seeing Jiang Yan Hui's reaction and his still nonchalant and lazy demeanor, her heart tightened. She decided to turn her anger towards Si Yi, whom Jiang Yan Hui had always protected like a treasure. "Attorney Ye, you are a lawyer yourself. I think lawyers are similar to police officers. You can't just accuse me without evidence, can you? To be fair, didn't you accidentally bump into me that day? Did I ever blame you? I only asked a few more questions because I saw that you looked upset. Now it seems like I was just meddling!"

Having been called out, it seemed impossible for Siyi to diminish her presence any further. However, at this moment, it seemed that nothing she said would be right, so she pursed her lips and chose to remain silent.

She fell silent, but the atmosphere was anything but silent.

"Is that so?" Jiang Yan raised an eyebrow, picking up where Ying Rui left off, her tone already cold. "Fine, let's assume your meeting with Sisi that day was accidental. Then I'd like to ask you, why do you have a necklace exactly like hers? If I remember correctly, that necklace should be one of a kind in the world. Ying Rui, I didn't give it to you, did I?"

Ying Rui's face stiffened, and her hand gripping the hem of her clothes tightened unconsciously. Despite the humiliating question, she managed to suppress her emotions. "I... I don't know what you're talking about. What necklace?"

Jiang Yan knew she wouldn't admit it, so she reached into her pocket, pulled out the necklace, and threw it directly in front of Ying Rui.

The necklace was something he had asked Liu Qi to find before he went to the United States that day. In City A, it wasn't difficult for him to find out which hotel a woman had stayed at. Liu Qi found out the hotel that Si Yi had booked that night in a very short time, and then watched the surveillance footage from various parts of the hotel before he saw that scene. Of course, he also saw the necklace that Ying Rui had lost.

Fortunately, there weren't many people in the parking lot at that time, so the necklace was still there.

"Is this your necklace?" Jiang Yan tapped the table lightly with her slender fingers. Her voice was low and deep, her pace still calm but now tinged with a hint of malice. "Ying Rui, I never knew you could be so cunning, plotting against me in such a roundabout way, huh?"

"This...this isn't mine..." Ying Rui probably never dreamed that her initial thought of "destroying the evidence" would become the biggest flaw in the whole affair. She never imagined that the fake necklace she had thrown away would end up in Jiang Yan Hui's hands, and that he would use it to question her.

She panicked and her words became disorganized.

Jiang Yan coldly interrupted her, "Not yours? Ying Rui, do you really think I'm a fool? Or do you think I'm a three-year-old child who will believe whatever you say? I think you're really stubborn. Do you want me to go to the hotel and pull up the surveillance footage to see who threw it?"

"I..." Ying Rui's lips trembled, her whole body shaking. Only now did she feel fear, knowing that she could no longer hide this matter, so she simply went along with it and admitted, "It...it's mine! I deliberately made a fake necklace, but...but I didn't mean anything by it! I just loved you, so I amused myself by making a fake necklace, and then told myself that it was a gift from you. Is that a capital offense?"

Tears streamed down her face. Ying Rui's voice choked with sobs as she spoke with such sorrow and deep emotion, "Every woman knows this necklace was designed by the most famous French designer. I've had my eye on it for a long time, but I knew that the only way I could ever have this 'Heartfelt Love' necklace was to buy it for myself, even though I dreamt of it being a gift from you... But I went to great lengths to find out that the necklace had already been bought. I don't know who bought it, but I really, really wanted it, so I had a fake one made for me... Ha, how pathetic I am. I was just deceiving myself, and now you're rubbing salt into my wounds. Even if you have no feelings for me at all, you don't have to humiliate me like this, do you?"

She spoke with such sorrow, as if her love for him had been reduced to dust, and that even the slightest response from him would have filled her with ecstatic joy. Such a delicate beauty, weeping and uttering such words, would likely have moved any man with a heart.

However, Jiang Yan Hui also had feelings for him, but his heart had already been given to another woman.

"Since you went to so much trouble to get this fake one to comfort yourself, why did you throw it away after seeing Sisi?"

Ying Rui wiped away the tears on her cheeks and said in a hoarse voice, "Yes, I was just trying to comfort myself, but it was fake, it was still fake. I thought that if I wore it and went out to tell other women that my husband gave it to me, I would feel very happy. Even if it was just a dream I was having, I would feel satisfied if I felt happy for even a second. But I didn't... I didn't even know that the person I met that day was Ye Siyi. I just said a few words, but she left without any expression. After that, I felt so bored. I bought a fake necklace to deceive myself. My life is such a failure! So I threw it away!"

What she said was truly moving and touching. Siyi stared intently at the girl in front of her, who was only in her early twenties. For a moment, she felt somewhat lost.

Her expression was so realistic; she was truly heartbroken, constantly shedding tears. Her words were also flawless. It was simply a girl who longed for something but couldn't have it, doing something to fulfill her dream, only to run into him, which led to what appeared to be a "misunderstanding."

To be honest, she still didn't trust Ying Rui. But having been a lawyer for so many years and dealing with countless clients, she had seen many who concealed details when telling her stories, and she could almost always spot it immediately. But Ying Rui was completely different. She carefully observed her expression; she seemed nervous and uneasy, but not overly flustered.

Her nervousness and unease were simply because the man she was facing was Jiang Yan Hui. She could tell that Ying Rui cared a lot about Jiang Yan Hui, and based on this, she felt there was no need for her to lie...

But even if she really did happen to run into me at the hotel that day, and then saw me again in B City the next day, wouldn't what happened afterward have nothing to do with her?

Siyi couldn't help but think that if Yingrui was telling the truth, then she and Jiang Yan had misunderstood her together. But if what she said was just a lie she made up on the spot, then she had to admit that this girl's ability to endure and change was absolutely beyond imagination!

"Okay, let's put the necklace aside for now and assume that what you said is true."

While Siyi was contemplating countless possibilities, Jiang Yan remained unmoved, even showing a hint of disdain in her eyes. She tapped the table with her finger and asked, "So, your meeting with Sisi in B City afterwards was also a coincidence? Including those sudden gossip headlines, and the fact that so many reporters appeared together in the elevator of Sisi's apartment this morning, were all coincidences and had nothing to do with you, right?"
