Just as Xiao Yifeng was about to withdraw his hand, Ye Yaxin’s hands tightly clutched onto his palm.
At this moment, Ye Yashi walked in and called out softly.
"Grab a chair for me, I’m going to stay here tonight, you go to sleep!"
Xiao Yifeng said to Ye Yashi as he looked at her.
Ye Yashi nodded, brought a chair for Xiao Yifeng, and let him sit down, while her hand was still tightly holding onto Ye Yaxin’s.
Ye Yashi glanced at the two of them, said nothing more, and walked out.
And so Xiao Yifeng sat quietly beside Ye Yaxin, gazing intently at her face.
Time ticked away second by second, and a new day arrived as everyone slept.
The sun rose in the east, and its warm rays bathed the earth, presenting a scene full of life.
In Ye Yaxin’s room, sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, falling right onto her face.
Soon, Ye Yaxin’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes slowly opened, with a bit of drowsiness and confusion.
Ye Yaxin opened her mouth, feeling her throat dry and her head kind of heavy and fuzzy.
Ye Yaxin suddenly screamed.
"What’s wrong? What’s wrong?"
Xiao Yifeng immediately woke up and asked.
Ye Yaxin looked at Xiao Yifeng with a startled gaze.
"Yes, it’s me, are you okay?"
Xiao Yifeng inquired, looking at Ye Yaxin.
Ye Yaxin said sternly.
"Last night, you were drunk, Lu Xueqing called me, and I brought you home. Then you grabbed my hand and wouldn’t let me leave, so I stayed with you here all night."
Xiao Yifeng explained.
"Hmph, you really know how to lie, your hand was clearly..."
Thinking of how Xiao Yifeng’s hand had been touching her and now he was saying she had been holding his hand, Ye Yaxin hummed angrily.
A hint of puzzlement flashed in Xiao Yifeng’s eyes.
Ye Yaxin’s face flushed once more as she coldly exclaimed, "Alright, you can leave now."
"You’re okay, right?"
"I’m fine, but I don’t want to see you right now!"
Ye Yaxin ordered with an icy tone.
"Ya Xin, I hope you understand that as long as you are my fiancée, Xiao Yifeng’s fiancée, you will be mine for this entire life, and no one can change that, including yourself. I hope you’ll try to accept the thoughts deep inside your heart."
"I can’t accept another woman!"
Ye Yaxin responded coldly.
Xiao Yifeng’s expression changed slightly as he said, "I believe you will."
A mysterious confidence flickered in Xiao Yifeng’s eyes before he walked out.
When Xiao Yifeng came downstairs, he saw Ye Yashi, who quickly said, "Brother-in-law, how is my sister doing?"
Xiao Yifeng replied indifferently.
"Then about your matter..."
"Your sister is definitely still angry, you’ll have to put in a good word for me when the time comes."
"Of course, considering this Rainbow Chain, I definitely can’t let the two of you split up!"
Ye Yashi touched the necklace worth ten million US dollars around her neck and smiled as she spoke.
At that moment, Xiao Yifeng received a call from Xiao Han. After a few words, Ye Yaxin happened to come downstairs.
"The people from the Energy Bureau have arrived, let’s go to the company."
Xiao Yifeng’s gaze turned to Ye Yaxin.
In Ye Yaxin’s office, the earlier mentioned Director Jiang and Xiao Han were sitting there, and both Ye Yaxin and Xiao Yifeng were present as well.
"This is the opinion from above, you will continue to control this new energy source. The government will send people to participate in the research and protection. Later on, the products developed based on this new energy will still be the Ye Family’s responsibility to sell."
Director Jiang stated.
"President Ye, what do you think?"
Xiao Han’s gaze swept towards Ye Yaxin, who involuntarily turned to look at Xiao Yifeng.
"That’s fine!" Xiao Yifeng said directly.
"Alright, let’s do it this way!"
Ye Yaxin nodded in agreement.
"Good, Director Jiang, you go back immediately and announce this news to the public, to deter those who covet the new energy source!"
Xiao Han said, looking at Director Jiang.
Afterwards, Xiao Yifeng and Xiao Han walked out. Xiao Yifeng looked at Xiao Han: "Uncle, thank you for this time."
"Don’t thank me, I don’t have the clout to make such a big concession from the top. According to regulations, this new energy source is definitely meant to be fully controlled by the state, without private participation. All of this is because the old man stepped up and negotiated with a few leaders, so you should thank Grandfather if anyone!"
Xiao Yifeng’s expression slightly changed, a trace of unusual color flashing in his eyes.
"He doesn’t deserve my thanks, nor is he my grandfather!"
Xiao Yifeng declared coldly.
"Whether you acknowledge it or not, the Xiao Family bloodline flows in your veins, and he is your grandfather!"
"Since that malicious woman drove my mother and me out of the Xiao Family and he did nothing to stop it, he has had no relation to me!"
Revengeful hatred flickered in Xiao Yifeng’s eyes.
"Sigh... At that time, it was also because your father did not marry Situ Yan according to his wishes, and instead took your mother, a common woman. Additionally, the sudden and mysterious disappearance of your second uncle piled up too much resentment, so he did not intervene to stop Situ Yan’s actions back then."
Xiao Han shook his head.
"My father and Situ Yan getting married?"
Xiao Yifeng’s eyes narrowed.
"Back then, the old man intended for Situ Yan to marry your second uncle because she was very fond of him, but unexpectedly, at the crucial moment, your second uncle brought your second aunt back, which infuriated the old man to thunderous rage."
"Ultimately, upon your second uncle’s insistence, the old man allowed your second aunt to stay with the Xiao Family, and Situ Yan ended up marrying your eldest uncle. Hence, she has always harbored resentment towards your mother and you."
"I see, but this changes nothing. He deserves my hatred, and she deserves to die!"
Xiao Yifeng hummed coldly.
In Yanjing, within the Situ Family Clan.
By a pool, Situ Yuntian was feeding the fish as Situ Qian stood beside him with a look of displeasure.
"It’s just a loss of some money, no need to be so upset. Let it go. As long as the Situ Family exists, what’s a mere ten billion?"
Deep light flickered in Situ Yuntian’s eyes as he threw the fish food, chuckling.
"I underestimated him once again. I never thought he could hide so deeply, to have such a vast sum of money!"
Chilly light shimmered in Situ Qian’s eyes.
