Ye Fengxing suddenly said to Tang Xiaomin very seriously, "I know you might have heard some things that made you very uncomfortable."
"But I can tell you very seriously, the reason I married you must be because of my feelings for you."
"Xiaomin, stop making trouble."
"You're making me very sad."
As he spoke the last words, Ye Fengxing's chest ached subtly.
Despite his high status and power, he was not so cold-blooded as to be devoid of all emotion.
He had indeed fallen in love with Tang Xiaomin.
And it was a love he couldn't extricate himself from.
In his previous life, Tang Xiaomin had never been in a relationship.
She hadn't encountered this situation either.
At this moment, she hardened her resolve and rejected Ye Fengxing.
If something was unacceptable from the start, it was better to reject it early and not drag things out.
Tang Xiaomin shook her head.
"I'm sorry, I can't respond to you. I'm here today to break off the engagement. I'll return the betrothal gifts and presents as they were, and I've said what I needed to say. That's all."
After speaking, Tang Xiaomin turned to leave.
In matters like this, the longer it dragged on, the more entangled it became.
However.
Tang Xiaomin had barely taken two steps when.
Suddenly, a number of bodyguards, along with Long Wu himself, appeared and surrounded her within the Ye family's living room.
Long Wu said with ill intent.
"Miss Tang, you cannot leave the Ye family. Please stay here with peace of mind."
Judging by the situation, they intended to forcibly keep Tang Xiaomin there.
Just as Tang Xiaomin was about to say something, a pair of cold handcuffs were swiftly fastened around her wrists.
Seeing this, Tang Xiaomin glared fiercely at Ye Fengxing, who was watching coldly from the side.
At this moment, he truly felt like a bandit to her.
Originally, when she came to break off the engagement, she had felt a sense of guilt.
After all, she herself had accepted his betrothal gifts and presents.
But now, Tang Xiaomin's guilt towards Ye Fengxing had completely vanished.
"You planned from the beginning to forcibly keep me in the Ye family, didn't you?"
Otherwise, what was the explanation for these people and these handcuffs?
With her hands already cuffed.
Although Ye Fengxing felt uncomfortable, he remained outwardly patient with Tang Xiaomin.
"Your temperament is too wild; you forced me to do this."
"You dare to be so reckless only because you know I like you."
"I tolerate your little tempers, but that doesn't mean I can always indulge you." Su Dan Novel Network
These words made it sound as if Ye Fengxing was absolutely certain he could keep Tang Xiaomin in the Ye family.
Enraged, Tang Xiaomin struggled violently against the handcuffs.
However, they didn't budge, and her hands were scraped raw.
Even so, she ignored her injuries.
And continued to try and break free.
Seeing Tang Xiaomin's desperate struggle, Ye Fengxing's heart ached again.
"These are handcuffs made of special materials; you won't be able to break free. Stop struggling."
As he spoke, his gaze towards Tang Xiaomin was filled with heartache.
But.
Tang Xiaomin couldn't hear anything at this moment.
She had only one thought: to escape from here.
"Xiaomin, don't do this."
Ye Fengxing's voice was full of distress as he stepped forward and grabbed Tang Xiaomin's hand, trying to stop her.
During the struggle, Tang Xiaomin suddenly raised her handcuffed hands and fiercely struck Ye Fengxing's face.
The air seemed to freeze.
The surrounding bodyguards watched Tang Xiaomin with disbelief.
They looked at this woman who dared to hurt Young Master Ye, oblivious to the immensity of the heavens and earth.
Ye Fengxing's lip was struck by the handcuffs and quickly began to bruise.
A bruise now appeared on his lip.
Ye Fengxing tasted the salty flavor in his mouth and swallowed it down in secret.
His gaze towards Tang Xiaomin was filled with a strong desire to conquer.
It was precisely a woman as untamable as her that aroused his interest.
Women who threw themselves at him, he only found them tiresome.
"Take her to my room," Ye Fengxing commanded.
"Yes!"
Several bodyguards obeyed and quickly swarmed forward.
Using ropes that were already prepared, they bound Tang Xiaomin tightly.
Now, Tang Xiaomin's limbs were completely incapacitated.
Let alone leaving the Ye family.
Tang Xiaomin glared at Ye Fengxing with hateful eyes.
She let out a mocking, light laugh.
"Heh."
"Is this how you pursue women?"
Ye Fengxing glanced at Tang Xiaomin.
"You forced me to do this."
This logic was utterly ridiculous.
She didn't want to marry him, yet he was forcing her.
"You're no different from a bandit."
"The Ye family is nothing special."
Now that Tang Xiaomin was under control.
Ye Fengxing naturally did not want to argue with her further.
The method of taming a woman was through both mind and body.
Since he couldn't win her heart for now.
He would get her person first.
She was already twenty years old.
...
Tang Xiaomin was forcibly taken to Ye Fengxing's room.
His room was decorated in a modern style, predominantly in black and white.
Just looking at it gave a sense of coldness.
After the bodyguards left, Ye Fengxing entered.
Even though she was in danger, Tang Xiaomin did not panic excessively.
Bound, she sat on the bed, her cold eyes appraising Ye Fengxing.
"Do you only know how to tie someone up even for bed?"
Tang Xiaomin's tone was filled with mockery.
Her gaze was even more contemptuous.
At this moment, from the bottom of her heart, she looked down on Ye Fengxing.
He was merely a petty person who bullied others with his power.
Ye Fengxing sat beside Tang Xiaomin.
Before he could speak, Tang Xiaomin shifted away slightly, creating distance.
She recoiled from him as if he were a plague god.
Seeing Tang Xiaomin like this, Ye Fengxing felt hurt.
But he remained seated, pondering something.
After a long while, he said, "I love you, and I haven't stooped to the point of using force on you."
With her already tied up and brought to his room, did he believe that himself?
Tang Xiaomin certainly didn't.
"As long as you stay here for one night, everyone will know tomorrow that you and I have crossed that line."
"Xiaomin."
Ye Fengxing's eyes flickered with a hint of bitterness as he looked at Tang Xiaomin.
"Stop entangling yourself with that surnamed Yan. I can protect you."
"Starting tomorrow, you'll be with me twenty-four hours a day, and I'll never let you get hurt again, okay?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Xiaomin couldn't help but twitch her lips.
Did he call this protection?
This was clearly surveillance.
"Ye Fengxing, you have no idea how to love someone."
Suddenly, Ye Fengxing straightened Tang Xiaomin's body, forcing her to face him.
"I can learn. Whatever you like about that surnamed Yan, I will definitely do it better and satisfy you more."
"I have strong learning abilities and strong self-control. Believe me, I can definitely satisfy you."
Tang Xiaomin looked at Ye Fengxing as if he were a monster.
Did he even understand what he was saying?
This was truly absurd.
Ye Fengxing continued, "Don't you believe me?"
Tang Xiaomin: ...
She believed him about as much as she believed in ghosts.
