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

Chapter 149 Bombshell

Siyi was woken up by the phone ringing the next day.

Her whole body ached, and she groaned in a daze, not intending to answer.

But the phone on the other end kept ringing.

The last ring was accompanied by a rapid doorbell ring, as if someone was calling her name.

Siyi finally opened her eyes, and the snow-white ceiling came into view in a blurry way.

My vision began to clear, and the sounds around me became clearer.

"Siyi! Siyi, are you inside? Siyi?..."

Is that... Ye Zhenghao's voice?

Siyi jolted awake, her sleepiness instantly vanishing. She jumped up, but the soreness in her body immediately reminded her of the passionate scene from the previous night.

Her expression changed again, and she instinctively turned to look at the other side of the bed, but there was no one there.

Jiang Yanhui...is not here?

She glanced at the clock on the wall again; it was only a little past eight. If she remembered correctly, he hadn't let her go all night.

I forced myself to call him "good brother" over and over again.

But the movements became increasingly ferocious.

Later, all she remembered was fainting.

But... when did he leave?

"Siyi? Siyi, if you don't open the door, I'll come in... Siyi?"

Ye Zhenghao seemed to be opening the door already.

Siyi didn't have time to think about Jiang Yanhui. She quickly jumped out of bed, enduring the soreness between her legs, and took a set of home clothes from the walk-in closet to put on. Then she said loudly, "Big brother, wait a moment, I'll be right there."

She put on long sleeves and trousers, and let her long hair down, making sure that Ye Zhenghao wouldn't easily notice anything, before opening the door.

Ye Zhenghao was already anxiously waiting at the door. As soon as Siyi opened the door, he grabbed her wrist and said, "Come with me, hurry up!"

Siyi was completely bewildered by his actions. She finally realized what was happening at the elevator entrance and hurriedly struggled to speak, "Big brother, what's wrong? I... I haven't washed my face or brushed my teeth yet, where are we going?"

Ye Zhenghao then realized he had been too hasty, but it was too late. He glanced at her still-open apartment door, let go of her hand, and hurried over to lock the door.

Just then, the elevator arrived, and he pulled Siyi inside. "It's fine for you to go out dressed like this. Don't worry about anything else for now. I'll buy you a bottle of water to rinse your mouth later."

"Brother, what's going on?"

His expression was off, and Siyi's heart skipped a beat, as if she realized the seriousness of the situation. Her older brother was always a very calm person and rarely acted rashly.

Ye Zhenghao gave her a complicated look, and after a moment he said in a deep voice, "Mom is back."

"What? Mom... Mom's back?"

"Ah."

They walked to the parking lot. Ye Zhenghao helped Siyi into the car, and then he got in himself. He started the engine and drove the car out of the parking lot. "When I went to see Dad this morning, Mom was in the ward. She said she came back yesterday."

Siyi didn't know how she felt when she suddenly heard the news that Guan Fengru had returned. It was a bit complicated. She wasn't unhappy, but it felt somewhat unreal.

I don't know when it started, but my mother has become this kind of person.

She knew that her sudden disappearance this time was definitely not just a coincidence. Why did she suddenly leave?

Where did you go?

Is she really with Jiang Jizhen?

While Siyi was still lost in her own thoughts, Ye Zhenghao suddenly dropped a bombshell, shattering her to pieces.

"Siyi, Mom said that she came back this time to... finalize her divorce with Dad."

"What did you say?"

Ye Zhenghao's voice was actually quite steady; he had already overcome the initial shock he felt when he first heard the news.

But to Siyi, those words were like a bomb.

She was completely stunned. She grabbed Ye Zhenghao's wrist in disbelief, "Big brother, what... what did you just say?"

Ye Zhenghao repeated each word carefully, "Mom came back this time to finalize the divorce agreement with Dad."

Siyi stared at Ye Zhenghao with wide eyes, both surprised and astonished. Ye Zhenghao knew that Siyi was not able to accept it in a short time.

He simply pulled the car over to the side of the road, pondered for a moment, and then spoke with a mixture of helplessness and pain, "I still don't know how Dad had his stroke. But Siyi, I really... I really suspect that Dad's stroke was related to Mom. I don't know what's wrong with Mom. I've noticed it myself these past few days; she's changed so much, I don't even recognize her anymore. She wasn't like this before. She suddenly said she wants to divorce Dad, not to ask for our opinions, but because she's already made up her mind. She just came back to tell us."

Siyi was trembling all over, and she couldn't say a word.

It felt like a huge rock was stuck in her throat, making her feel pain in her vocal cords.

“Siyi, I know you can’t accept this, but… Mom is still in the hospital. Because Dad can’t come, the lawyer will be coming to the hospital to handle the divorce proceedings. I’d like to take you there. Mom and you have always been close. If we can persuade her…”

"She won't change."

Siyi closed her eyes in anguish, her hands gripping her seatbelt so tightly they almost deformed it. Her voice trembled uncontrollably, "Big brother, she won't change anymore. No one can change her mind. I've said everything... So she had already made up her mind all along. No wonder Dad is like this; she can even go out with other people..."

"what are you saying?"

Ye Zhenghao keenly grasped the suspicious point in her words and frowned, "Siyi, what did you just say? You said everything? You already knew all along?"

He had already suspected that Siyi might know something.

But she refused to admit it back then, and now she's saying it again. Ye Zhenghao is a meticulous person, so he can naturally deduce what she's saying.

His eyes darkened slightly, and he grabbed Siyi's hand, "Tell your older brother, why did Mom get a divorce?"

Siyi opened her mouth, hesitating about what to say, when Ye Zhenghao's phone suddenly rang, breaking the tense atmosphere between the two.

He glanced at the incoming call on his phone, his expression immediately hardening. He pressed the call button and answered, "What's wrong?"

The person on the other end of the phone had a loud voice, and Siyi was sitting right next to him, so she could hear him very clearly.

It must have been a policeman working for Ye Zhenghao. He said urgently, "Boss, come back quickly, your mother... she's already signing the papers."

Ye Zhenghao hung up the phone without saying a word, and didn't have time to press Siyi for answers. He stepped on the gas, "We're going to the hospital now, Mom is signing the papers."

Siyi's heart sank. She didn't know what she felt anymore. After the initial shock and disbelief, she seemed to have become numb.

It seems she's figured everything out.

Why did the mother leave when the father suffered a stroke?

Perhaps it was her father who discovered her affair with Jiang Jizhen. Why wasn't she there those few days?

Perhaps she went out with Jiang Jizhen, abandoning her seriously ill father and her two sons, determined to follow Jiang Jizhen wholeheartedly.

Now that she's getting a divorce, it's obvious that her next step will be to register her marriage with Jiang Jizhen, right?

How could she do this?

How could she do this?

Why on earth did she become like this?

Is Jiang Jizhen really that good?

He was so good that she would give up everything just to be with a man like him...

She bit her lip hard, but the dull pain in her chest was unbearable. Her mind wandered all the way, and she finally arrived at the hospital.

Sure enough, a lawyer stood respectfully in the ward, and Guan Fengru was wearing a long dress and her face looked as if she had put on makeup.

She was already beautiful and elegant, and rarely wore makeup. Today, she had obviously dressed up specially, making her look even more graceful and noble.

When she saw Siyi and Ye Zhenghao, she remained surprisingly calm.

Ye Xiongming, lying on the bed, was also lucid. He sat up halfway on the bed, unable to hold a pen to sign, so the lawyer suggested, "How about this, you can use your fingerprints. It will have the same effect. Ms. Guan, what do you think?"

Guan Fengru adjusted her shawl and nodded gently. "I have no objections, just get the formalities done." She then calmly looked at Ye Xiongming. "Xiongming, do you agree?"

Ye Xiongming nodded vaguely, and the lawyer immediately prepared the fingerprinting materials and handed them to him. "Mr. Ye, please put your fingerprint here, and I will take care of the rest."

Siyi watched as Ye Xiongming's trembling hand reached for the contents of the red box. Finally, she couldn't bear it any longer. She lunged forward, shoved the lawyer aside, and glared at him fiercely, yelling, "Get out of here, all of you!"

"Siyi".

Ye Zhenghao had actually wanted to step forward to stop her, but Siyi was one step ahead of him.

He had just lifted his foot to step forward when Guan Fengru calmly interrupted him, "You're an adult now, and you're a lawyer. You should understand how childish your behavior is. You'd be better off taking care of your father. We're getting a divorce, and your father has agreed."

"mom!"

Ye Zhenghao growled, "Do you know what you're saying? What can your father say in this state? Even if you're dissatisfied with your father, don't do it now..."

"This is between us."

Guan Fengru's cold demeanor was almost heartless. "Zhenghao, you're almost thirty years old. You can't possibly be so ignorant about such basic personal privacy, can you? Perfect, you're a policeman, and your sister is a lawyer. You're both law enforcement officers. What was Siyi's behavior just now? Marriage is between your father and me. Even if we divorce, we're not enemies. I'll still come to see him in the future. Besides, you and Siyi are still my children. We just had a broken marriage. Do I really need to explain such simple truths to you?"

Our marriage just broke down...

Even if we get divorced, you will still be my children...

This marriage is between him and me...

These words were like a sharp sword, relentlessly wielded. Siyi felt as if she were walking through a blade, and only she knew the pain she felt. She couldn't believe that her mother could still say such things at this moment. Her heart was shattered into pieces by her mother's almost cold and cruel force, and could never be put back together.

“Siyi, let’s not waste any more time. I have other things to do, so have your dad put his fingerprint on it…”

"I hate you!"

Siyi roared, her eyes red as she stared coldly at Guan Fengru, "Why are you doing this? Why are you forcing Dad like this? I hate you! Do you hear me? If you dare to do this, I will never acknowledge you as my mother again! I will definitely do it! I will make you regret it for the rest of your life! Don't force me!"

Guan Fengru's eyes darkened, and her red lips pressed tightly together. Just as she was about to say something, Ye Xiongming, who had been lying on the bed, suddenly reached out and grabbed Siyi's clothes.

He had always spoken with difficulty and his words were unclear, but in this tense atmosphere, his voice was surprisingly clear. He only managed to say intermittently, "...Si...Siyi...don't do this...let...let your mother go..."

"father!"

"dad!"

Both voices came from Siyi and Ye Zhenghao. Neither of them seemed willing to believe it, but seeing their father's relieved expression, they were speechless for a moment.

why?

Why doesn't Dad hate me at all?

Why did he still say he would let her go?

Is this what real married life is like?

When disaster strikes, everyone runs away?

Siyi scoffed inwardly, naturally disagreeing. "She's not just your wife, she's also my brother's and my mother. Shouldn't you respect my brother's and my opinion when you want a divorce?"

“Siyi…”

"Ha, adult matters are adult matters. Even if you make the decisions, it's still your parents' business. If they want to get a divorce, do you really think you have any say in it?"

Guan Fengru's words were interrupted by a cold, hard male voice. The voice came from the door of the ward and gradually approached. By the time the voice finished, two rows of men in black were already standing in the door of the ward.

The man at the head of the group was wearing a loose-fitting white linen casual outfit, which contrasted sharply with the colors of everyone else's clothes.

He was clearly a man in his fifties, but because he took good care of himself, he looked like he was only in his forties.

His black hair was neatly combed, and there was a faint scar on his forehead. His eyes were bright and piercing, and he was tall. Just standing there, he gave people a great sense of oppression.

It is clear that he must have been a very powerful figure in his youth.

This was the first time Siyi had met Jiang Jizhen.

She had only seen him occasionally in newspapers and on television before, and this was the first time Ye Zhenghao had met this legendary tycoon.
