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

Siyi instinctively stopped and turned around to see Sun Xiaoman rushing over. "Attorney Ye, wait a minute, Attorney Ye..."

"Miss Sun, is there anything else?"

Sun Xiaoman had probably chased after him the whole way, and was panting heavily from running.

Standing in front of Siyi, it took him a long time to steady his breathing. "Attorney Ye, thank you so much. I must thank you in person! Thank you for helping me win the case, and thank you for giving me a chance to start over."

"That would require Miss Sun to have the courage to cooperate with me."

Not surprised that Sun Xiaoman would catch up to thank her, Siyi didn't show any smugness. Every word she said was sincere. "Ms. Sun, I believe that someone who truly loves and cherishes you won't care about your past. Every word I said in court was not opportunistic, so you should have confidence in yourself. Start anew, and life will be beautiful from now on."

Sun Xiaoman's eyes were a little red, and she was very excited. Her words were full of hope, "Thank you so much, Attorney Ye. For the first time in so many years, I feel that my life is beginning to be complete, and for the first time, I feel that I can breathe smoothly."

Siyi smiled, about to say something, when her phone rang. Sun Xiaoman tactfully left. She then took out her phone and glanced at the caller ID, her eyes darkening slightly, but she didn't answer immediately. Instead, she said to Xiao Zhang, "Go back first and take my things back."

Xiao Zhang took the things from her hands and went back to the office first.

Siyi looked around to make sure no one was there before answering the phone, "What is it?"

Her tone wasn't very friendly, but Jiang Yan on the other end of the phone was in a good mood, "Baby, you haven't forgotten what you promised me, have you?"

Siyi gritted her teeth in resentment. She could imagine the man's face on the other end of the phone with her eyes closed. But she also knew that even if she didn't see him now, she couldn't escape him forever.

Never mind, I have some things I need to clarify with him anyway.

"I'll be there right away."

After hanging up the phone, she turned and walked towards the parking lot. However, as soon as she turned the corner, she saw a familiar figure not far away. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she subconsciously wanted to turn her back, but the man in front of her had already seen her and called out, "Siyi!"

Siyi, feeling overwhelmed, closed her eyes.

What a coincidence! I've run into Zheng Muyan again!

Leaving was out of the question, so she could only force a smile and say, "Senior brother, what a coincidence."

"I have a lawsuit to attend to later. Who are you today?"

"I just finished a lawsuit and am about to go back."

Zheng Muyan raised an eyebrow. "Really? You won?"

"Well, I won."

"My junior sister is getting more and more amazing." Zheng Muyan smiled sincerely, put his hand on her shoulder and patted her gently. "My case today isn't too complicated, I should be out soon. Why don't you wait for me a bit, and we can go out for a meal to celebrate?"

Siyi's eyes flashed, "No need, senior brother, I have something urgent to take care of back home."

A hint of disappointment flashed across his face, but he still said nonchalantly, "Alright then, we'll contact each other another day."

No matter how many methods he tried or how many excuses he made, she always declined to have a meal with him. Zheng Muyan wasn't stupid; he knew she didn't have a place for him in her heart. She truly only saw him as a simple senior brother. But he still felt unwilling to give up. He had silently liked her for so many years, always believing he had plenty of chances…

"Senior brother, I'll be going now."

Siyi deliberately ignored the desolation in his eyes, waved to him, and walked past him into the parking lot.

Zheng Muyan stood there awkwardly for a long time before finally lifting his foot and walking out of the parking lot.

Siyi only turned around after hearing the footsteps behind her gradually fade into the distance. She watched Zheng Muyan walk quite a distance until he finally disappeared from her sight, and then she slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Senior brother, I'm sorry...

It wasn't that she didn't know his feelings for her; over the years, he had always taken exceptional care of her. But love was something she didn't know how to describe. She knew very well that she didn't feel her heart race when she was with Zheng Muyan; she knew very well that she truly only saw him as her senior brother. Since falling in love was impossible, she shouldn't give him any expectations.

"Is it that good-looking?" A familiar male voice suddenly sounded from behind, and at the same time, a pair of large hands wrapped around her waist, causing Siyi to fall into a broad chest.

She immediately began to struggle, shouting, "What are you doing? Let go of me!"

"What are you so nervous about? Are you afraid your good senior will turn around and see us?" He saw Zheng Muyan in the car earlier, and now that he's left, she's still staring at him blankly. Is that damn lawyer really that good-looking?

"Jiang Yan, come back!"

Lu Shen quickly finished his preparations. "No need to shout so loudly, I'm right beside you," he said, leaning down to whisper in her ear, causing Si Yi to tense up instantly.

Knowing that struggling was futile at this point, and that saying anything more would only waste time, Siyi took a deep breath to calm her fluctuating emotions. "I'm not here to waste time with you. I have something to tell you. But let go of me first, and we'll talk in the car."

Since this place is the parking lot of the courthouse, many people will naturally come in. If others see them like this... who knows what kind of rumors will spread.

Jiang Yan was unusually agreeable and actually let go of her. Si Yi didn't even bother to look at him. She recognized his car and took the initiative to open the passenger door and get in first.

The man behind him had a faint smile on his lips, raised his eyebrows slightly, and got into the driver's seat as well.

As soon as she got in the car, Jiang Yanhui didn't rush to drive. She sat leisurely in her seat, her hands resting comfortably on the steering wheel. However, her long, narrow eyes never left her face.

Damn it! Does he have no idea how lethal his own eyes are? Not to mention how creepy it is to be stared at like that by a man, plus Jiang Yanhui's eyes, with that meaningful and ambiguous light, Siyi felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.

If he doesn't speak, then she should speak first.

“Jiang Yan Hui, the outcome is already clear. I have won this case, and the evidence you gave me before has been overturned. So, it seems that you are the one who lost the bet we made before.”

"Hmm?" He raised his eyebrows and hummed leisurely, as if he had no intention of refuting.

Seeing his expression, Siyi felt uneasy. Thinking about it carefully, given his personality, he shouldn't have let it go so easily. Besides, he had been so confident that she should come to him. Could he have some other tricks up his sleeve?

She jolted, a hint of caution appearing in her eyes. Her brows furrowed. "So what did you want to say to me after you called me here?"

“I do have something to say to you, but…” He paused deliberately for a moment, then slowly moved closer to her. The carriage was already cramped, and as they got closer, Siyi felt his intense, intimate breath on her neck, unable to escape. “Don’t you have anything to say to me?”

"What do you want me to say to you?" She leaned closer to the car door. "Jiang Yan Hui, what are you up to? Stop beating around the bush, just tell me what your scheme is!"

"A conspiracy?" He raised his eyebrows, his smile deepening, his eyes burning. "Sisi, so in your heart I'm just a scheming, treacherous person?"

Siyi sneered, "Aren't you just a scoundrel?"

Scoundrel?

Jiang Yan narrowed his eyes, a sly smile flashing across them. Fine, then he'd show her what a real scoundrel was.

“I may be a scoundrel, but how could your brother, such a righteous person, just hit people like that? Those punches he threw yesterday really hurt me; I felt unwell all over when I woke up today…”

"Jiang Yan, come back!"

He stopped there, but Siyi was suddenly stunned. She knew he wouldn't let it go. She sat up straight and looked at him angrily. "It really was you! As soon as my brother and I left yesterday, you rushed to complain about my brother, didn't you? You've gone too far! That was clearly your fault. You deliberately provoked my brother, so why did you complain about him?"

complaint?

Jiang Yanhui scoffed inwardly. He wouldn't be so bored as to do such a thing. Besides, he didn't actually dislike Ye Zhenghao that much, and Ye Zhenghao could even help him control Jiang Yansen. How could he let him lose his job? However, he did think it was true that he could use this incident to make his little Sisi more aware of danger.

It seems he doesn't need to explain himself anymore; he prefers to go with the flow.

"As a law-abiding citizen, my life was threatened. It's not unreasonable for me to take appropriate self-defense measures, is it?"

"you"

"What am I?"

"What exactly do you want?" Knowing he had no good intentions, Siyi knew he must have some purpose in bringing this up. "As long as you don't complain about my older brother, and you hand over that damn video of yours, I'll consider whatever you want."

"Don't you know what I want?"

As he spoke, he suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms, lifting her chin with one hand and looking down at the extremely restless little woman in his arms. His tone was exceptionally gentle, "You won the lawsuit, you won the bet, but I still want you to lose."
