Su Xiaong widened her eyes and then suddenly burst into laughter, "Uncle, what’s with that expression?! Hahaha!"
"His face froze instantly at that ti, and even the car seed to shake with him!"
"Going to be castrated by his niece, and cut off his descendants, haha!"
Seeing her so happy, Yin ng was slightly relieved, "By the way, are you really going to marry my uncle?"
"Uh..."
Yin ng saw her lowering her head, thinking she was quite shy.
But actually, Su Xiaong struggled inside about whether to keep the marriage contract secret or not, hiding it, not hiding it...
"Xiao ng, my uncle is really a good person, even if you don’t like him now, you’ll definitely like him in the future."
"...I know he’s quite good."
"That’s good." Yin ng leaned against her, "Xiao ng, actually, the first ti I t you, I felt very relieved."
"Very relieved?"
"Yes, very relieved..."
Yin Xiangng thought maybe her uncle felt the sa way, which is why he was particularly enamored with Su Xiaong.
Su Xiaong couldn’t figure out what this adjective ant, but... it should not be a derogatory term.
"Xiao ng, my uncle says he wants to marry you, that truly ans he cares about you deeply."
Su Xiaong quietly sighed in her heart, this is a fake marriage, ng ng.
Yin Shixiu returned to the company at exactly two o’clock in the afternoon.
As soon as the car stopped, through the front car window, a man stood in front of his car.
His whole body surrounded by a nacing aura! His sharp eyes stared intensely at him.
...Ren Yixuan.
Yin Shixiu got out of the car.
Ren Yixuan walked over and stopped in front of him.
"Ren Yixuan, why are you here?"
"I thought President Yin understands well."
Ren Yixuan’s voice was always very clear, a bit of youthful arrogance shining through the clarity.
Yin Shixiu had always appreciated Ren Yixuan’s calm and steady deanor.
But now...
"Su Xiaong, right?"
Between two smart people, there’s no need for much circling around.
Even though he only privately inford the school about the marriage with Su Xiaong happening in February, he knew it would eventually spread and reach Ren Yixuan’s ears.
"It’s you."
Ren Yixuan’s slightly raised phoenix eyes were filled with suppressed anger and pain.
"...It’s ."
As soon as Yin Shixiu acknowledged, Ren Yixuan’s fist ca up, fast and fierce!
Yet Yin Shixiu dodged it with an even faster speed, letting the fist fueled by the fire of rage hit empty air!
"I always thought you were soone who knew how to control emotions. Calm in the face of crisis."
Yin Shixiu looked at him and said calmly.
But Ren Yixuan’s eyes were already red, "President Yin, she’s only a nineteen-year-old girl!"
"...I know."
"How could you do this? To a nineteen-year-old girl? How could you make her pregnant?!"
After racking my brain, I couldn’t figure out the na Su Xiaong wouldn’t ntion, but it was... Yin Shixiu.
"That was an accident."
"An accident?" Ren Yixuan only felt it was laughable!
A man in his thirties causing a nineteen-year-old girl to get pregnant, this is... an accident?
"I see this as not just an accident, but a vile ga of the upper class!"
"Disgusting and nauseating!"
Yin Shixiu looked calmly at the gradually losing control Ren Yixuan, not speaking, just standing in front of him with a composed posture.
Ren Yixuan clenched his fists tightly.
"Do you know she’s my girl? She’s my girl! The one I’ve safeguarded for nineteen years, the only one I love, whom I treasure dearly!"
"Yet you let the girl you treasure suffer damage that cannot be undone."
Yin Shixiu’s voice was still calm.
Ren Yixuan furrowed his thick brows, "You... say I hurt her?"
"Isn’t it?"
"Yin Shixiu, it’s you who took my girl! It’s you who allowed her to endure things she should not be suffering at nineteen! You actually say I hurt her?"
Ren Yixuan couldn’t believe Yin Shixiu would turn around and bla him.
Yin Shixiu slightly stepped forward, no longer worried about sudden attacks.
"You’re right, I caused her to experience things she shouldn’t have endured."
Yin Shixiu squinted his eyes slightly and continued, "But I can make ands to her, for the wrongs I’ve done to her, I can repay her a hundredfold, a thousandfold."
"How to make ands?! Huh?"
Ren Yixuan’s eyes were bloodshot, his eyes seed to bulge out, filled with contempt, turning his originally handso face into sothing grim.
He asked with a cold sneer,
"With your dirty money? Do you think you can use money to make up for what you did to Su Xiaong?"
Seeing Yin Shixiu not speaking, he snorted again,
"Or with the title of President of Yin Group’s wife? What do you take Su Xiaong for?!"
"I want to marry her. I think you should already know."
Ren Yixuan’s knuckles had turned blue.
"Whether it’s money or status, I’ll give it to her; she deserves it. As for compensation, I’m using... Yin Shixiu himself."
"She... agreed?"
Ren Yixuan’s voice carried tremors.
Even after hearing about it from the director’s office, he didn’t want to believe it, frantically running here to confront Yin Shixiu.
However, he found that coming here, facing this man whose expression hadn’t changed a bit, wasn’t confrontation, but self-humiliation.
"She likes you a lot. My intrusion halfway wasn’t particularly honorable. But Su Xiaong, she’s soone you Ren Yixuan abandoned with your own hands."
"I didn’t!"
"When she needed you, you weren’t there. When she was on the edge of a cliff, you pushed her..."
Ren Yixuan’s expression froze.
"Had you not leaked her pregnancy, or if the person who discovered it hadn’t spread it across the school forum, things wouldn’t have reached this point. Maybe Xiao ng wouldn’t have had to marry . And perhaps you might still have a chance to win her back."
Yin Shixiu’s eyes were much deeper than Ren Yixuan’s.
He’s a predator yet puts on a righteous facade.
Not wanting to seem too despicable, he made Ren Yixuan’s sense of defeat stem more from within himself.
It was Ren Yixuan who abandoned the chance to hold onto Su Xiaong, not Yin Shixiu who cruelly intervened.
"President Yin..."
Ren Yixuan took a deep breath, after pondering for a mont, he raised his eyes, the bloodshot slightly receding.
"Back when Xiao ng wanted to work at Yin Group, I agreed partly because of her and partly because I had a good impression of Yin Group and believed that working under you, I could learn a lot."
"You can still work at Yin Group. The terms I promised you won’t change."
Ren Yixuan smirked,
"I don’t need that."
Yin Shixiu furrowed his brows slightly.
"I won’t work at Yin Group, nor will I possibly work for you."
After speaking, Ren Yixuan turned around.
While Yin Shixiu originally wanted to say sothing more, he figured it wasn’t really necessary.
As he walked past, Yin Shixiu entered the elevator.
At the very instant the elevator doors closed, he saw the look in Ren Yixuan’s eyes—a look that seed to want to rember him thoroughly.
He will seek revenge, eventually.
This much, Yin Shixiu was sure of.
Ren Yixuan withdrew his gaze and headed towards his car...
The most painful thing for him wasn’t the upcoming marriage between Su Xiaong and Yin Shixiu, but the realization...
When Yin Shixiu hurt Su Xiaong, he could handle it properly and compensate as much as possible.
Yet, when he hurt Su Xiaong, he found himself powerless to fix things, powerless to resolve them.
Even though he had beco a character others cannot underestimate, facing soone like Yin Shixiu when stepping into society, he was powerless.
Too weak, that’s why his possessions could be taken by others.
Unlocking the car, he opened the driver’s side door, and just as he sat down, the passenger side door was opened—
Next, a man with a crooked smile at the corner of his mouth sat inside.
Ren Yixuan frowned, "Who are you?"
"Who I am can be answered later; just overheard your conversation with Yin Shixiu..."
The man looked at Ren Yixuan, curling those pretty lips, "Your woman got taken? I’m quite curious... Yin Shixiu never touches those touched by others. What kind of girl is that?"
Ren Yixuan squinted his eyes, seeming displeased, "Who exactly are you?"
"Soone who can help you take back the woman."
The man had an incredibly pretty face, his alluring smile tinged with a hint of mischief, speaking in a flippant tone.
Ren Yixuan’s brow furrowed slightly.
The man stretched, handing out a business card from his pocket.
"I’ll wait for you."
After speaking, the man got out of the car; Ren Yixuan watched him take the elevator upstairs.
Looking back at the gold-frad business card in his hand, two cursive characters were printed on it—Rong Jing.
He seed to have heard of this na...
After finishing his work, Yin Shixiu went back to have dinner with Su Xiaong and Yin ng.
After dinner, he sent Yin ng back to school.
Upon returning, the sky had started to snow again, adding a bit of tenderness to the dark night.
Today was the last day of the old year; the streets were filled with the lively atmosphere of welcoming the new year.
"Uncle, aren’t you going ho?"
"Aren’t I taking you ho right now?"
Su Xiaong turned her head to look out the window, "No, I an your ho, where your parents are; aren’t you going back for a reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve?"
"I’m not going back."
Su Xiaong blinked, slightly mystified about why Uncle wasn’t going ho for New Year’s Eve.
Though New Year’s Eve isn’t as lively as Spring Festival, most people still choose to spend it with family and loved ones.
"What’s the matter?"
Yin Shixiu noticed Su Xiaong’s puzzled look and asked.
"Nothing, I just wanted to say... let’s watch the New Year’s Eve gala together tonight, okay?"
Yin Shixiu smiled and agreed lightly, "Okay."
Su Xiaong also smiled silently.
Their moods seed rather good.
However, Yin Shixiu and Su Xiaong never expected, after pushing open the apartnt door, to find two seventy-year-olds sitting side by side on the couch...
Su Xiaong was quite startled, blinking those round, bright eyes and tugging at Yin Shixiu’s clothes.
