Jiang Yan had never seen her so well-behaved and pleasing to the eye before.

In the past, when had she never been aggressive or menacing towards me?

At this moment, Siyi was lying in his arms, looking like a submissive wife.

It seemed she truly knew she was wrong; she neither struggled nor argued, her bloodstained hands clutching her collar tightly.

For some reason, half of his anger disappeared.

If she were always this obedient, wouldn't she be even more likable?

In the end, two people led Sun Xiaoman out of the karaoke bar, surrounded by a large entourage.

Jiang Yan instructed her entourage to take the troublesome Sun Xiaoman home, and then put Siyi into her car.

Just as he was about to get into the car, he saw Leng Xiyu rush over. He paused in his action of opening the car door, and Jiang Yan leaned down to Siyi and said, "Your forehead is injured. Don't move around. Wait for me. I'll take you to the hospital right away."

Siyi's mind was indeed foggy. She hadn't felt that it was serious because all her nerves were tense before, but now that she relaxed, she realized that something was wrong.

She was too weak to speak, and once she got into the car, she leaned back in her seat looking drowsy.

Jiang Yanhui was a little worried when he saw this, but Leng Xiyu pulled him back, "Yanhui, those people have been dealt with enough. Let's spare their lives, otherwise it won't be good if they cause trouble."

Jiang Yan recalled Si Yi's injured appearance earlier, and his handsome face, which had relaxed earlier, darkened further.

His tone was icy. "So what if they're dead? Do you think I care about a few worthless lives?"

Leng Xiyu had known Jiang Yanhui since childhood, so he naturally knew what kind of temperament she had.

Don't be fooled by his seemingly carefree attitude; if you really anger him, you'll definitely suffer the consequences.

Seeing how much he cared about that lawyer named Ye Siyi these days, he had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

But then he thought about it again and said, "My people told me that Ye Zhenghao is on his way here with his men. He's been hoping to find something on you. Whether he's here for his sister or for you, it's best not to cause trouble."

Jiang Yan pursed his lips, a hint of disdain still lingering between his handsome brows. "Just Ye Zhenghao, I've never taken him seriously."

"The swallows have returned..."

Leng Xiyu was about to say something more when Jiang Yan glanced back and suddenly made a shushing gesture.

He opened the car door and saw Siyi holding her head in her hands, looking pained. His heart tightened immediately, and without saying a word, he got into the car and hurriedly said to Leng Xiyu, "You handle it. I'll take her to the hospital first."

The red sports car sped away, leaving Leng Xiyu standing there with a frown.

Immediately, a man who looked like a manager rushed over, bowing and scraping as he said, "Young Master Leng, I just saw a police car coming by, you see..."

"Alright, send someone upstairs to teach that guy a lesson. You know what to say, right?"

"I know, I know... I'll tell the police they were drunk and started hitting and causing trouble themselves."

Leng Xiyu nodded in satisfaction. "Also, remove all footage of Young Master Yan from the CCTV footage."

"Yes, yes, I've already had someone take care of it. Don't worry, Young Master Leng, the police will definitely not cause you or Young Master Yan any trouble."

"Go down."

"Yes."

-

Siyi thought Jiang Yan would take her to the hospital.

But unexpectedly, he ended up sending her to his place.

When he carried her out of the car, she sensed something was wrong. She frowned and asked, "Didn't you say you were going to take me to the hospital? Where is this?"

"Isn't it a bit late to be worried about me taking you there now?"

Even at this point, you still remember to be wary of him. Why didn't you guard against others earlier? Jiang Yan snorted irritably, "Are you afraid I'll sell you off? With a head like yours, you wouldn't fetch a good price even if you were sold to someone else!"

Siyi knew he was criticizing her for being too impulsive.

A sharp pain shot through her forehead, and since he had helped her again that night, she was too lazy to argue with him anymore, so she simply let him carry her into the house.

Soon a middle-aged male doctor arrived.

Siyi was much more awake by this time. The doctor examined her and asked her a few questions before saying, "It's nothing serious. There was a little bleeding. Just rest and you'll be fine. I'll clean the wound and bandage it. You can remove it in three days."

Jiang Yanhui was standing to the side, and when she heard what the family doctor said, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Just then, the phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and went into his study to answer it.

The doctor treated Siyi's wound and gave her a few more instructions. After everything was done, Siyi felt that her forehead didn't hurt as much as before.

It was just a bump, not on the back of the head, so it wasn't particularly serious. It was just that there was some bleeding that made it look so shocking.

After the doctor left, Siyi tried to stand up, intending to leave.

She still has a lot of things to take care of; the court hearing is tomorrow.

Not only do we need to contact Sun Xiaoman, but her older brother is definitely looking for her too. It's not good for her to stay here in Jiangyan.

Jiang Yan had just finished a phone call in the study when he came out and saw her walking towards the door. Without saying a word, he rushed up and blocked her way. "Where are you planning to go now?"

Siyi had no intention of going against him today; she still remembered this "life-saving grace."

So when he spoke, his tone was much gentler than before, "I have important things to do, I have to go back first."

"What's so important? You need to rest now." He clearly wasn't planning to let him go.

Siyi took a breath and said, "Jiang Yanhui, thank you for helping me today, but I have a court hearing tomorrow. Given Sun Xiaoman's current situation, I need to have a serious talk with her in person. Also, I informed my older brother before I went to that place today. I think he should be at the karaoke bar by now. Even if he hasn't seen me, he'll find out who took me away sooner or later, do you understand?"

Jiang Yan frowned even more, her tone turning cold. "What do I need to understand? You're such an ungrateful woman! I just saved you, and you didn't even plan to thank me properly? You really don't know what it means to repay someone with your body, do you? You don't understand, I'll teach you!"

Siyi was taken aback at first. Looking at Jiang Yanhui's handsome face with ill intentions and his body gradually approaching her, her heart skipped a beat.

The scene of being almost assaulted in the private room before involuntarily came to mind.

They acted as if they had just escaped one wolf's den only to fall into another.

A chill ran down her spine, and she immediately stepped back. Taking advantage of his inattention, she bypassed him and took a step forward to pull the door handle. But as soon as her hand touched the handle, Jiang Yanhui stopped her.

How could she possibly open it?

She was both anxious and angry, so she simply rammed her whole body into him, shouting furiously, "Jiang Yan Hui, so this is the kind of despicable person you are! Let go of me! Don't touch me! Don't touch me... let go of me..."

Jiang Yan never expected that a mere joke would provoke her to act so fiercely. She quickly hugged her, both angry and amused, "Damn it, can you stop acting like this? What's wrong with you? Why are you acting like a saint in front of me? Is it really necessary?"

To everyone's surprise, Siyi became even more agitated upon hearing this and struggled even harder.

Jiang Yan Hui panicked and forgot her anger. She was afraid that she might hurt the wound on her forehead. She said repeatedly, "I was wrong, I was wrong, okay? You stay here, I won't touch you! Damn it, I, Jiang Yan Hui, am not so bad as to force a disabled person."

Siyi was stunned when she heard this.

His whole body stiffened.

She forgot to struggle, and she forgot to speak.

He was just wondering if he had misheard.

Was it Jiang Yan who apologized to me just now?

How can it be……

Jiang Yan, this arrogant and haughty second young master of the Jiang family, apologize to her?

joke!

Even if the sky collapses, the earth splits, there are flash floods and tsunamis, the end of the world, the destruction of the earth...

He would never apologize to her; she must have misheard.

Jiang Yan sighed when she saw that she had finally behaved herself. She brushed the stray hairs from her face to one side, shook her head and chuckled, "If I had known that those three words would work so well, I would have said it earlier, and you wouldn't have had to fight me like this."

Siyi's heart fluttered. She wasn't an naive girl. Although their meeting wasn't exactly romantic, she remembered how he had held her in the private room and called her "my woman" repeatedly.

Now that they're treating her so gently, she can naturally sense what's going on.

But this realization struck her like a thunderbolt.

She subconsciously didn't want to touch this "forbidden zone" and instinctively reached out to push him away. Jiang Yan was pushed and stumbled. He opened his mouth to say something when a series of urgent knocks sounded on the tightly closed apartment door.

Both of them were startled. Before Siyi could recover, she heard a familiar male voice outside the door.

"Jiang Yan, open the door for me right now!"

It was her older brother. Siyi's mind went blank for a moment, and she was completely stunned.

What should we do? Why did my older brother end up here?

What would he think if he saw me with Jiang Yan?

Jiang Yan was also somewhat surprised that Ye Zhenghao had found this place so quickly. It seemed that his position as inspector was not just for show, but that he actually had some ability.

But when he saw Siyi's tense expression, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Is she really that shameful? She's so nervous, like a couple caught cheating in bed...

"Jiang Yanhui, I told you to open the door! I know you're in there. If you don't open the door, I'll break it down myself. Open the door now!"

The knocking on the door grew louder.

Siyi's heart leaped into her throat as she listened to Ye Zhenghao's words.

She reached out and grabbed Jiang Yanhui's sleeve, her voice trembling as she asked, "What should we do? It's my older brother! I can't let him know I'm here... Do you have a back door? Let me leave first, I can't let him know I'm still here..."

"Why are you nervous?"

Jiang Yan was furious but laughed coldly, saying, "I didn't kill or set fires, I just saved you. Is that something to be ashamed of?"
