He broke his vows for her, and a tycoon descended to earth for love.
Chapter 316 Warm Love
"Sisi, Sisi, you're awake?"
A gentle, familiar male voice reached her ears, deep and exceptionally pleasant. Siyi slowly opened her eyes, feeling as if she hadn't heard him call her "Sisi" so affectionately in a long time. Everything before her was blurry, and a figure moved in front of her. She wanted to say something, but when she opened her mouth, her throat felt like it was on fire, hoarse and unbearable. Even the slightest movement of her body ached terribly.
"Don't move." Jiang Yan noticed that she was awake, so she reached out and helped her sit up, then considerately placed a cushion behind her back. "How are you feeling? Are you feeling any better?"
"The swallows have returned..."
As soon as she opened her mouth to speak, she couldn't help but cough a few times, her lips dry. "I... how did I get here?"
“You had a fever, so I brought you to the hospital.” Jiang Yan bent down to pour her a glass of water and held it to her lips. “Here, have some water.”
She was truly thirsty, so she took the water and drank it in large gulps. After finishing the glass, she felt much better, but she was still weak. She felt like she couldn't muster any strength, and she weakly pressed her temples. When she spoke, her voice was particularly hoarse, "Wasn't I at the police station? How did I end up in the hospital?"
The mere mention of the police station filled Jiang Yan with rage, but because Si Yi was in front of him, and he was speaking to her, he ultimately suppressed the coldness in his eyes and his emotions. "When I went to see you, I found you were delirious from the fever, so I brought you out. Those people were simply despicable; they didn't do anything even though you were so sick. If it weren't for you, I would have already..."
"Yan Hui." Si Yi reached out and covered his lips, gently shaking her head. "Actually, they were just following orders. Never mind, I'm perfectly fine now, aren't I?"
"You call this 'good'?" He felt an overwhelming sense of guilt for not being able to protect her. He had promised not to let her get hurt, but there were some things he felt powerless to do. That feeling was heartbreaking; he wanted nothing more than to tear those people to pieces. Yet, at this moment, his eyes were still soft and tender as he looked at Siyi. He leaned down, buried his face in the crook of her neck, and gently kissed the delicate skin of her neck and shoulders. "...I'm sorry, baby. I'm always breaking my promises, aren't I? I feel so useless. I couldn't protect you, and you had to endure all that pain. It breaks my heart."
"Don't say that." His self-denial made Siyi feel even more sorry for him. She reached out and cupped his cheeks, their foreheads touching. Her voice was hoarse, but every word was filled with a tenderness that touched people's hearts. "I have never blamed you. Some things were beyond our expectations. I know I am in there, but you are more anxious than I am. In fact, they used me as a scapegoat just for your sake. It's not that you caused me to be like this, but that I became your weakness, which is why you became vulnerable."
Jiang Yan turned around and froze. The next second, he suddenly used force to lift her chin.
He lowered his gaze to meet hers, his focused eyes captivating. "Baby, when did you become so good with words?"
Did she know that his heart was trembling when she said those words? Many people thought he was invincible, and many hoped he could become an indestructible person. But only she truly saw herself as an ordinary person. He was also weak, afraid, and sometimes he couldn't control himself and felt powerless.
But she endured so much suffering, yet she never cried out in pain; she even made excuses and justifications for herself…
How could he not love a woman like that?
Siyi looked at him, watching the intense emotions flashing across his eyes. She didn't know if she wanted to lighten the mood or if she really wanted to ask that question, so she blurted out a soft counter-question, "So, was I right?"
"Ok?"
Am I your weakness?
"Yes."
Siyi's still somewhat pale face suddenly lit up with a wide smile. She was genuinely happy; an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and bliss had long since dispelled all her so-called pain. "You agreed to this without even thinking about it? You really trust me that much? Didn't I push that person down the stairs? Sometimes a woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea. Did you really not have a single second of doubt that I might have actually pushed that person down the stairs and then pretended not to...?"
"I believe you." Jiang Yan straightened up.
He smiled slightly, concealing the seductive glint in his eyes, revealing a rare purity in his entire being. He raised his hand and tucked her drooping black hair behind her ear, speaking softly, "I've never doubted anything. Although I regret Ying Rui's death, darling, I've never doubted you for a single second. Even if you were that kind of person, so what?"
"Huh...what?"
The last sentence made Siyi suddenly raise her head, her eyes filled with shock.
What does it mean to say, "Yes, so what?"
Jiang Yanhui's smile deepened. He reached out and touched her cheek, his eyes filled with a unique indulgence that existed solely for this woman: "Didn't understand? Let me explain again. I mean, whether you pushed someone or not, I believe you. This belief doesn't mean admitting you didn't do it. To me, Ye Siyi, you are my whole world. Even if you turn the whole world upside down, I will set it right for you alone. So whether you pushed or not, it's not the most important thing to me. You are my woman. You can push whoever you want, and I will take care of everything afterward. But baby, I know you're not that kind of person. I know you want to take the most normal path, to use what you believe to be the fairest law to let you live a clean life. So I'm willing to cooperate with you. As long as you think it's right, I will cooperate with you."
In other words, even if he wanted to take her away today, no one could stop him. But he knew that for her, that would be tantamount to fleeing from justice, which she would absolutely not accept. So he was willing to go through all the trouble with her. If she wanted to use the law to clear her name, he would help her hire the best lawyer, find evidence, and let her live a clean life.
"The swallows have returned..."
Siyi was truly shocked, not because of anything else, but simply because of what he had just said.
In her heart, it was as if she heard a loud bang in an instant, and then a dazzling firework bloomed. He stood on the tip of her heart, under the brilliant sky. What a man she saw who could make her heart flutter.
Everything before her eyes was slowly moving, and in the end, it all turned into the most dazzling light, blurring the lines between heaven and earth, leaving her bewildered and infatuated.
From that moment on, Ye Siyi would always remember how Jiang Yanhui's body temperature, through his shirt, reached her heart in waves, making all the warmth she encountered afterward seem insignificant.
She would always remember how the voice of this man named Jiang Yanhui had hypnotically reached her ears, bewitching her and making her linger there forever, unwilling to wake up.
--I trust you.
—For me, Jiang Yan Hui, you, Ye Si Yi, are my whole world. Even if you turn the whole world upside down, I will still put it right for you alone.
Because of those few words, Ye Siyi believed for the rest of her life that from then on, the earth would never grow old and the sky would never fall.
The love you give me will never end.
----
When Jiang Yan walked out of the ward, there were two men standing at the door. He wasn't surprised to see Ye Zhenghao, but he was somewhat surprised to see Zheng Muyan at this time.
These three men used to clash like needles and wheat awns whenever they met, but now, standing at the door of the ward, they still couldn't muster any sense of harmony.
Recently, because of Siyi, Ye Zhenghao has basically been on the same side as Jiang Yanhui, and the two have lost some of their edge. Now that Zheng Muyan has suddenly appeared, Jiang Yanhui's hostility towards him is definitely stronger than that towards Ye Zhenghao. Naturally, she won't give him a friendly look when she sees him.
"What are you here for?"
Zheng Muyan also snorted coldly, "Siyi has gone through such a thing, and now you actually ask me what I'm here for? Jiang Yan, I was willing to let go back then because I thought you could give her peace and happiness. I didn't expect that less than a month later, something like this would happen. It seems I really overestimated you!"
"Ahem, stop arguing!" Seeing that the situation was getting a bit out of hand, Ye Zhenghao unusually acted as a peacemaker between the two, quickly standing between them and coughing lightly. He said, "The person involved is still lying inside. You probably want to get her out, right? The situation is urgent right now. Any private matters can wait until this is resolved. You can argue or fight however you want, I won't have any objections. But listen to what I have to say first, okay?"
He glanced at Jiang Yanhui and saw that although his face was ashen, he remained silent. He understood that this meant he had compromised. Zheng Muyan had come to help, so naturally he wouldn't really argue with him. The two men snorted disdainfully and moved aside.
"Alright, then I'll take that as your agreement." Ye Zhenghao breathed a sigh of relief. At least he still had some sense. For Siyi's sake, both of them had compromised. He quickly said, "Now there are two pieces of news. One can be considered good news, but the other is not so good news. Jiang Yan, which one would you like to hear first?"
"Good news." He'd had too much bad news lately, and he needed some good news to cheer himself up.
Ye Zhenghao glanced at Zheng Muyan and said, "The good news is that Siyi can now be released on bail. Muyan handled the procedures himself because of his father's connections, so the higher-ups can no longer put pressure on her."
