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

Under the dim light, Siyi clearly saw Jiang Yanhui's deep peach blossom eyes flicker slightly, and then her eyebrows and eyelashes lowered.

There seemed to be some emotion swirling in her shimmering eyes.

But that emotion came and went quickly, disappearing in no time.

She became even more certain of her earlier suspicions: he really did know everything!

So, was it for this reason that he went to such lengths to get close to me before?

She was furious and shoved him hard. "Jiang Yan Hui, so you really knew everything. You deliberately got close to me, didn't you? You're really... too much!"

She didn't know why, but the sudden confirmation of this idea ignited a nameless fire deep within her, a fire that consumed her reason.

In fact, Siyi has never been the kind of person who would casually impose her anger on others.

But right now, she just couldn't control that inexplicable anger.

But she also understood that regardless of whether Jiang Yanhui approached her intentionally, her mother's infidelity was an undeniable fact!

Her mother and his father...

It's really a big joke in the world!

Marital infidelity, becoming the other woman in someone else's marriage.

That was something she could never hold her head up in shame, yet the mother she had respected since childhood turned out to be a mistress whom everyone hated...

Seeing her cold expression and a flicker in her eyes, Jiang Yan actually let go of her.

In that instant, Siyi's heart skipped a beat, and a feeling similar to loss rose within her.

Disappointment...

She actually felt disappointed...

It felt like a taut rubber band that had been stretched out of its straight before being snapped.

It's an indescribable feeling, an emptiness, as if something is missing.

She stared blankly as he turned around, and saw his long, slender fingers holding a cigarette, which he then slowly lit.

The next second, the smoke rising from his raised hand disrupted the entire scene. He turned to face himself, revealing eyes like cold stars behind the smoke, his voice hoarse and sexy.

"You really think I approached you on purpose?"

Siyi was taken aback, composed herself, and her delicate brows furrowed. "Jiang Yanhui, you don't need to play games with me anymore. If you didn't already know about their affair, would you have been so certain that I would come back to you?"

She sneered, "Congratulations, you did it!"

He turned and walked to the sofa, sitting down gracefully. A wicked smile slowly curved his lips, but his eyes held a hint of mockery. "Such a smart girl, but she's a bit silly at crucial moments."

His words were clearly sarcastic, and Siyi couldn't possibly fail to understand. Her expression grew even more displeased. "What did you say?"

"Isn't it?"

He lowered his eyes, flicked the ash from his cigarette with his index finger, then raised his hand to take a drag of his cigarette, all in one smooth motion.

There was an indescribable allure and wickedness about her. "I, Jiang Yanhui, have never needed to do anything underhanded. If I really wanted to get close to you, would I need to resort to such methods? Besides, you were the first person to climb into my bed."

These words instantly struck a nerve with her, and Siyi blushed, but she still retorted without any politeness, "That time was just an accident, I've said that many times!"

"You can say that it was an accident, but what makes you think I deliberately tried to get close to you?"

"you."

He raised his finger, making a shushing gesture.

He raised his eyes and looked at her flushed cheeks with a half-smile. It felt like a feather was gently brushing against his heart. In fact, she was quite vivid when she was angry.

He raised an eyebrow, then reached out and stubbed out the half-smoked cigarette in his hand. His thin lips moved slightly. "Whether it was an accident or intentional, none of that matters. What matters is that you came to see me today not to interrogate me, right?"

Siyi frowned and pursed her lips tightly.

That's right, she didn't come to him today just to confirm this matter.

She had already thought it through on her way here. Since it was her mother and his father, if she didn't want things to escalate uncontrollably, finding Jiang Yan was the best option.

No one wants to see their parents' relationship break down.

She also recalled a time when she saw him being particularly tender towards a little girl, which made her even more certain that deep down, Jiang Yan Hui was a man who longed for a family.

He longed for a family and would never stand by and watch his father get entangled with other women!

"Stop beating around the bush with me. I don't have the time to waste on your nonsense."

She took a deep breath, quickly organized her thoughts, and then said seriously, word by word, "Jiang Yan Hui, I know you must have something on your mind. Why don't you tell me? If possible, I will cooperate with you."

Jiang Yan immediately smiled.

"Sisi, you need to think this through. Are you sure you really want to cooperate with me?"

Siyi looked into his eyes and saw a playful glint in them. She felt a chill run down her spine, but when she thought of her family, her father, and her older brother, she forced herself to nod. "As long as it's not too outrageous, I'll cooperate with you. But the condition is that I don't want my mother to get any more mired in this mess."

Jiang Yan reached for a crystal glass from the side, casually toying with it by the stem with her slender fingers. "To put it bluntly, that's their business. Do you think you can interfere? Whether it's infidelity or being a mistress, they're adults. Do you need to take responsibility for other people's mistakes?"

Siyi looked at him incredulously, "That's your biological father, don't you care about him at all?"

"care?"

He smiled contemptuously, and in that instant, Siyi clearly saw a hint of pain and despair in his eyes.

He disappeared in the blink of an eye, his tone full of sarcasm, "Do you know how many lovers my father has every year? What's your mother's compared to that? You don't even have to do anything, they'll break up in less than a month."

"In that case, I will be even more determined not to let my loved ones be harmed!"

The more he said that, the more determined she became; perhaps feelings transcend age and national boundaries.

But whether you love someone or not, you still need to have the most basic moral principles.

She didn't know what her mother was thinking to get entangled with someone like Jiang Jizhen, but she knew she couldn't let her harmonious family be cracked in the slightest.

Even though there were already cracks, she would do her best to mend them without her father noticing.

She knew all too well what kind of person her father was.

Saving face is always paramount. If he really finds out about this... the consequences are unimaginable.

"Okay." Jiang Yan snapped his fingers, a slow smile playing on his lips, as if he had been waiting for her to say this. He pointed at her with his index finger and said, "You said it yourself. I do have a way, but I do need your cooperation. It's not difficult, but think it through. If you really get on my boat, there's no way you can get off."

Siyi felt a chill run down her spine. She lowered her eyes and pondered for a few seconds before nodding solemnly, "I said I would cooperate as long as the request wasn't too unreasonable, but the premise is that it must be effective."

Jiang Yan smiled gently and tapped the edge of the sofa with her middle finger. "Don't worry, I wouldn't want you to suffer."

He looked up at her, his eyes appearing somewhat ambiguous in the orange-yellow light, and his voice was deep and husky, with an indescribable allure. "Be my woman, and none of your worries will happen."

"You...what did you say?"

Siyi's eyes widened suddenly as she stared at him in disbelief, her heart pounding wildly because of his words.

"Sisi, you heard me clearly, do you really want me to repeat it again?"

Jiang Yan watched with great interest as she looked at her unusually embarrassed and flustered expression. Her mood improved, and her tone became increasingly flirtatious. "Actually, you and I aren't that strangers. People say that a night of marriage brings a hundred nights of kindness. Even if I made you my woman, you shouldn't feel too awkward. Isn't this giving you a head start?"

As he spoke, he stood up, and in the instant she was flustered, his hands reached out and wrapped around her slender waist, pulling her into his arms without any restraint.

His hand stroked her slightly flushed cheeks, his voice so gentle it was almost dripping with tenderness, "So? You're not losing out on this deal, why did you take so long to think about it?"

"You... let go!"

The intense masculine scent made her feel dizzy. When she came to her senses, she struggled violently, but he refused to let go. Frustrated and angry, she could only pound his chest with her fists and growl, "Let go, let me go! Jiang Yan Hui, you are shameless! I will not agree to such an unreasonable request. You are taking advantage of my distress. Let me go!"

"Taking advantage of the situation?"

He raised one eyebrow, then nodded thoughtfully. "Hmm, that's a pretty good use of the idiom. So, I'm just taking advantage of your misfortune. What can you do about it?"

"Jiang Yan, you did this on purpose! You're despicable, let me go!"

"You've already brought me to my door, how could I possibly let go?"

He chuckled, his thin lips slowly approaching her earlobe, his husky voice carrying an air of domineering certainty, "You have no choice. Only by agreeing to be my woman can you possibly help your adulterous mother. Otherwise... perhaps tomorrow your good father and good older brother will both find out what kind of mother you have."
