"Kai, what happened to you just now?" In the lounge, Chen Yuxin removed the pristine white veil, letting her long, glossy black hair flow down. Ye Shikai couldn’t help but chuckle. He had discovered a philosophical truth: a wedding dress is just like life. Though it looks beautiful and splendid, if worn all the ti, it’s like a burden that only makes one increasingly weary...
"Just now, I... What do you an, just now?"
"You..." Chen Yuxin was a bit upset, her pretty face flushing with anger, "It’s just now... during the vows, you... why didn’t you say anything?"
"Just now, I seed to have spaced out." Ye Shikai turned his head away, answering lightly. Indeed, at that mont, he was sowhat lost in thought. At the very least, he didn’t hear the officiant’s voice.
"Spacing out, just because you spaced out?" Chen Yuxin looked skeptical. She didn’t believe Ye Shikai’s words at all. How could he space out at such a critical mont? Even if it were nerves, it wouldn’t be possible. Ye Shikai wasn’t an ordinary person; he’s been through so much, so this kind of mont wouldn’t make him nervous.
"Yeah, maybe I haven’t been in the best spirits lately." Ye Shikai brushed it off.
"It’s fine, after all... the wedding went smoothly." Chen Yuxin initially wanted to press further, but since the wedding was over and she felt content, she decided not to continue the topic.
"Kai, the guests have left. Let’s go ho too. There are too many people here, and I don’t like it."
"Alright, let’s go ho."
"I have sothing to do, you wait here for a bit." Chen Yuxin glanced at her phone with a smile to Ye Shikai.
"Go ahead, I’ll wait here for you." Ye Shikai said blandly while sitting on a chair.
Ring-ring.
At this mont, Ye Shikai’s phone rang. It was a file sent by Wang Kai without anything else. Ye Shikai opened the file and was stunned by the contents, leading to his phone slipping from his hand and falling to the floor.
Ten minutes later.
"Kai, let’s go ho." Chen Yuxin ca over joyfully, holding onto his arm. However, to her surprise, his response was a cold shrug off and Ye Shikai’s icy stare.
"Kai, what’s wrong?" Chen Yuxin gently rubbed her wrist, her face showing panic and confusion over Ye Shikai’s change in attitude.
"What’s wrong, you have a listen to this." Ye Shikai picked up the phone and slamd it on the table, his face full of resentnt. After speaking, he also took off his suit jacket and flung it onto the sofa.
The file contained a voice recording. Feeling guilty, Chen Yuxin tapped to play it, and her face was full of shock after listening.
"It was you who blocked my phone, wasn’t it? And behind my back, kidnapped Worm and Zi Yun?" Ye Shikai shouted in anger. To tell the truth, after hearing this recording, it was like a bomb exploded in his head, leaving him blank, unsure of what to think next. He stood there in a daze, ntally exhausted, his body weak.
The voice in the recording was recorded by Luo Shiqi. How it ended up on Wang Kai’s phone was thanks to Ji Qian, who simply helped forward it.
"Kai, let explain. It’s not what you think." Chen Yuxin’s tears suddenly overflowed, hugging Ye Shikai’s waist tightly, refusing to let go.
Ye Shikai pushed Chen Yuxin away. Her light makeup was already sared by tears. At this mont, his heart was only filled with disappointnt. Even at that mont, he held on to a trace of hope, hoping to hear Chen Yuxin’s rebuttal. But now, it seed she admitted to the truth.
"You even sent people to assassinate them." Ye Shikai sat in the chair, pressing his temples with both hands, his head in throbbing pain. He never expected Chen Yuxin would do so much behind his back.
"Kai, I can explain this, too. I didn’t an to harm them on purpose. I was... helpless." Chen Yuxin hurriedly defended, wanting to embrace Ye Shikai, as if letting go would an losing him forever.
"What else do you want to do?" Ye Shikai suddenly yelled, leaving Chen Yuxin frozen in place, Ye Shikai’s tears slowly fell as well.
"I never thought that the girl I once knew would beco like this." Ye Shikai was utterly despairing, turning away, intending to leave.
"Kai, you really misunderstand . Let’s go ho first. Once we’re ho, I’ll slowly explain it to you, okay?" Chen Yuxin pleaded, urgently gripping his hand.
"Kai, I really don’t want to lose you. I can’t lose you. I’m truly afraid..." Chen Yuxin buried her head in Ye Shikai’s chest, sobbing. Gradually, her sobs turned into soft sniffs, and Ye Shikai regained his composure.
"Kai, I already have your child, you can’t abandon ." Chen Yuxin murmured in his ear, full of tearful cries. Ye Shikai, being soft-hearted, had felt an urge to rush out earlier. But now, the die was cast. Back then, for this child, Su Qingyu even gave up her marriage to fulfill Ye Shikai’s wishes. If he left now, wouldn’t Su Qingyu’s divorce be aningless?
For the child’s sake.
"You go ho first. I’ll be back a bit later." In the end, Ye Shikai reluctantly left this sentence, and sat back down on the sofa.
"No, let’s go ho together." Chen Yuxin shook her head, clinging tightly to Ye Shikai, unwilling to let go.
"Go ho. If they co in, I’m afraid there’ll be a conflict." Ye Shikai stated blandly. Chen Yuxin imdiately lost her courage. Indeed, given Zi Yun’s temperant, if she ca in and saw Chen Yuxin, there would probably be a "tear up" on the spot. Also, Ye Shikai was still angry, and Chen Yuxin dared not provoke him further.
Bam.
The lounge door was suddenly opened, and Luo Shiqi rushed in with several others, only to see Ye Shikai sitting on the sofa, looking disheartened and sowhat dejected.
"Bro, are you alright?" Zi Yun approached, seeing Ye Shikai’s state, he didn’t show a hint of a groom’s joy. The room felt empty and cold, as if telling a tale of desolation.
"I’m fine." Ye Shikai waved his hand. Although he hadn’t drunk, he appeared as if intoxicated.
"You received the voice ssage, right?" Looking at the situation, Luo Shiqi already guessed what had happened. She knew how much damage this news would cause Ye Shikai—today was supposed to be his wedding. It wasn’t her intention to retaliate against Chen Yuxin. But Luo Shiqi knew very well that if she let Chen Yuxin continue like this, one day, Ye Shikai would suffer even greater harm than now—a hundred tis worse. It’s better to end it sooner rather than later; making a clean break was necessary.
