After Being Betrayed, I Married a Tycoon in a Flash

Chapter 30: Chapter 30 Mr. Sheng’s Embrace

The more Zifeng behaved like this, the more worried Ye Shu became. She tightened her grip on his fingers, her eyes filling with moisture as she looked at his face.

“Zifeng, it’s not that I’m afraid of them, it’s just not worth it! Gu Zuocheng has already become part of my past, but you are different…”

Ye Shu paused for a moment, then lifted her eyes. The dim light fell on her pupils, reflecting a broken, bright glow, resolute and tenacious.

“You are the only concern I have left in this world, the drive for me to keep living. If I lost you too, what meaning would my life still hold?”

“Big sis, why… why have you suddenly become so sentimental? I… I’m a bit scared…” Zifeng scratched his head incessantly, somewhat in a panic.

Their breaths, so close to each other, intertwined, making the air grow slightly restless and warm.

Ye Shu’s heart pounded violently, a long-suppressed emotion surging forth.

Eventually, she couldn’t hold it in and burst into tears.

Zifeng, having grown up so much, had only seen Ye Shu cry twice: once when Gu Mengzhi, Ye Shu’s grandmother, passed away, and the other time was on the day their father, Ye Zhongming, died.

Apart from those instances, even when the Ye Group was taken away or her fiancé was stolen, Ye Shu had never cried again.

Today, however, he had made his incredibly strong sister cry.

Zifeng felt utterly regretful inside, clumsily comforting Ye Shu, “Sis, don’t cry, please don’t cry! If it really comes to it, I’ll always listen to you from now on. I’ll treat Gu Zuocheng and Ye Xinyu as if they are air. I absolutely won’t provoke them!”

“I swear, if I, Zifeng, ever go to them again, let my games lag all the time, let others kill me off in games! Last place in every race…”

“Silly boy!” Ye Shu was amused by Zifeng’s childlike oath and burst into laughter through her tears.

She reached out, ruffled his dark, curly hair, and looked at him seriously, “Zifeng, this time it was Gu Zuocheng who had you brought here. I’m afraid that before I can bail you out, they’ll try every trick in the book to add charges to your name…”

“I know! Sis, I’m not stupid. If they play dirty tricks, I just won’t fall for them! I promise, until you get me out, I’ll be like a wooden dummy, not fighting back or responding to insults.”

“How hard it must be for you!” Ye Shu’s voice was tinged with sorrow, and she hugged Zifeng tightly again, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you stay here for long.”

Before her tears could well up again, Ye Shu turned and left the police station.

The first thing she did was return to Shengjing Garden. She needed to retrieve the property deed from Ye Mansion and mortgage it at the bank.

Hailing a taxi, she headed straight for Shengjing Garden.

Half an hour later, Ye Shu arrived at Shengjing Garden.

No sooner had she alighted from the car than she saw Sheng Shaochen.

And opposite him stood a beautiful, elegantly dressed lady who evidently came from a wealthy family.

It was clear that the lady also knew about Sheng Shaochen’s fear of women, as she deliberately stood more than a meter away from him.

Her graceful voice smiled as it rang out, “Shaochen, I heard that yesterday at Rose Residence, you picked up a girl. What’s her background? Were you uncomfortable being near her? I heard you had your back to her while getting into the car…”

“Mom…” Sheng Shaochen’s deep voice filled the air, and suddenly, he opened his arms wide towards the beautiful lady.

Stepping forward, he closed in on the lady.

The lady, having never seen Sheng Shaochen act this way, was shocked and frozen in her spot.

By the time she regained her senses and tried to flee, Sheng Shaochen had already embraced her directly.
