"I have to find a way to leave before they come in, otherwise the misunderstanding will be huge."
Tang Xiaomin turned and walked towards the window, not knowing where else she could escape.
Ye Lingyun caught up and said to her.
"Let it be a misunderstanding. A misunderstanding can't do anything."
"What did you say?" Tang Xiaomin looked at Ye Lingyun in surprise.
She clearly saw a fleeting ambiguous emotion in Ye Lingyun's eyes.
However, Ye Lingyun quickly averted his gaze.
"Tang Xiaomin, all along, I've been pretending for the sake of getting the Ye Group. I've sacrificed too much."
"After I got all this, I realized it wasn't what I wanted. I'm really tired of it all."
Bang bang bang!!
"Open the door! Don't hide inside and stay silent!"
Bang bang bang!!!
The people outside could barge in at any moment, yet Ye Lingyun was saying these nonsensical words to her.
"So, what are your plans now?" Tang Xiaomin asked, her heart racing with the noise outside the door.
Ye Lingyun continued.
"I don't want to sacrifice my own marriage, so I want to ask you for a favor. Don't go anywhere. I'll open the door now."
"If my mother comes in and sees us together, I'll tell her about breaking off the engagement with the Yang family. No matter what she says this time, I will fight to the end."
...
Hearing this, Tang Xiaomin's brows furrowed even tighter.
"Big Brother, if you do this, your engagement will be broken, but what about me? I'm also engaged to someone now. Have you considered the consequences for me?"
This...
Ye Lingyun hadn't thought that far ahead and scratched his head sheepishly.
"You're desperate. Why don't you take this opportunity to help me this once? Your boyfriend doesn't seem like an unreasonable person. I'll help you explain everything later."
Wrong!
Terribly wrong!
Yan Jue was easygoing, but he wasn't easygoing about everything.
Especially when it came to other women, Yan Jue was very strict with her.
If she hadn't told Yan Jue beforehand, he would have already come looking for her.
"No, I can't help you with this. I have to go."
Tang Xiaomin didn't want to delay any longer. She climbed onto the window and jumped down without hesitation.
"Tang Xiaomin!"
Ye Lingyun was terrified by this scene. He stepped forward and grabbed one of Tang Xiaomin's hands. Tang Xiaomin was hanging outside, with dozens of stories below. The situation was extremely dangerous.
"It's too dangerous. Hold on to me. I'll pull you up."
Ye Lingyun gritted his teeth and desperately pulled Tang Xiaomin up.
"Let go quickly!"
The people outside were determined to break down the door, using some crude tools, and were making loud banging noises. Each bang hit Tang Xiaomin's heart, making her panic.
"I won't let go! I can't just watch you jump!"
"Listen to me, it's just a misunderstanding, it's no big deal. You don't need to seek death. It's better to live than to die. There will always be a day to explain things clearly."
Ye Lingyun gritted his teeth, desperately pulling Tang Xiaomin up. Tang Xiaomin's body was also pulled to the edge of the window, and she would soon be out of danger. Su Dan Novel Network
Looking at Ye Lingyun's anxious expression and his desperate efforts to save her.
Even if it wasn't romantic love, Tang Xiaomin had already regarded him as her closest friend.
Bang!
There was a loud noise from the door, and the alarm suddenly stopped.
The door was broken open.
Tang Xiaomin used her other hand to pry Ye Lingyun's fingers open one by one.
Seeing this, Ye Lingyun's eyes turned bloodshot under the night sky.
"No!"
"Thank you, Ye Lingyun."
Tang Xiaomin smiled at him and plummeted downwards rapidly.
...
Madam Ye finally rushed into the room and searched everywhere for Tang Xiaomin.
Yang Yang, furious, pulled the bedsheet off the bed to look for someone, but there was nothing on the bed.
"The slut must be hiding under the bed. Flip the bed over and look!"
With an order, the bodyguards quickly lifted the bed, but still, no one was found.
At this time, several bodyguards turned the room upside down. Not to mention people, they didn't even find a cockroach.
"Madam, Miss Yang, besides Young Master Yun, there is no one else in this room."
"How is that possible? I saw Tang Xiaomin walk into this room with my own eyes. If she's not in the room, where else could she be? You must not have searched thoroughly. Go search again!" Yang Yang shouted.
The bodyguards searched again and found nothing. This time, Yang Yang herself participated.
"This is impossible. Where on earth did Tang Xiaomin hide? Why can't I find her."
"Tang Xiaomin, where are you? Come out!"
Yang Yang looked at Ye Lingyun standing by the window and, thinking of something, immediately ran to the window and looked down.
As she looked, her vision blurred. She quickly retracted her head to feel better. There was nowhere to hide outside.
Ye Lingyun, who had been silent, slowly turned around and looked at his mother with an extremely complex gaze.
"You broke in with such a commotion. Shouldn't you give me an explanation!"
His tone was colder than ever, with a strong hint of anger.
Madam Ye was also confused. When she heard Yang Yang say that Tang Xiaomin had entered Ye Lingyun's room, she had lost her head and ordered the door to be forcibly broken down, but Tang Xiaomin was nowhere in the room.
If this were the case, it would likely damage the relationship between mother and son.
"Son, Mom heard that a presumptuous woman entered your room. I... I was worried you might be taken advantage of, so I came to see."
"Heh... Heh heh..."
Ye Lingyun laughed strangely, looking at his mother with indifference.
"I'm an adult. Even if I brought a woman here for the night, what's the problem?"
This...
...
"You're looking for Tang Xiaomin, trying to catch us in the act. Stop acting in front of me!"
"Son, it's not what you think. Listen to me." Madam Ye explained.
"Don't say it. I don't want to hear it."
Ye Lingyun walked towards Yang Yang, looking at her angrily.
"You told my mother that Tang Xiaomin was in my room, didn't you?"
Yang Yang thought she could catch them red-handed, but now there was nothing. She panicked and intimately held Ye Lingyun's arm, trying to awaken his mercy.
"I... Lingyun, listen to me. It's not what you think."
"Enough!"
Ye Lingyun angrily threw Yang Yang off, with too much force, and flung her to the ground.
"You keep challenging my bottom line. A woman as unreasonable as you is not worthy of entering my Ye family's door."
"I declare that our engagement is hereby void. From now on, don't appear before me again!"
"Lingyun, what are you saying? I'm your fiancée."
"Besides, there are many important collaborations between our two families. This engagement cannot be broken just like that."
