Chapter 248 Escape from battle
With people blocking her way, Siyi couldn't leave even if she wanted to. She reached into her bag, took out sunglasses, put them on, and then said, "Is there anything else?"
The police officer nodded. "You just helped that young man, so you can't just leave like this. It seems their lawyer is having some problems and hasn't arrived yet. Attorney Ye, you're a good person, so why don't you go all the way? That young man is also a pitiful person. He said he trusts you. Will you help him fight for it to the end?"
"I'm sorry, I just saw injustice and I have other things to do."
Siyi refused without hesitation, saying, "There are many lawyers in B City, and I know quite a few of my colleagues. If needed, I can introduce a lawyer, but it's not convenient for me to come myself."
"But Attorney Ye..."
"Excuse me, actually my surname isn't Ye, it's Nie."
Siyi waved her hand, interrupting the policeman's next words. Calmly, she took out her business card holder from her bag, then found a business card and handed it to him. "This is also a lawyer from B City. He is most skilled in some commercial disputes. I don't really advocate for these kinds of cases, so you can have someone contact him."
As she was about to leave, the policeman, still unwilling to give up, stopped her, saying with great difficulty, "Attorney Ye... oh no, Attorney Nie, actually, it's like this, what you just said to that young man, he's been very anxious about, and now he's making a scene demanding to see you. You know, it's not easy for us either, we can't monitor him 24 hours a day. Like he said, he also has human rights, and if he causes trouble again..."
Siyi was such a smart person that she understood as soon as the policeman said it: he was probably afraid that other lawyers would ask for fees.
That young man doesn't have much money, and if he causes trouble again, it will definitely be quite troublesome.
She reached up and pressed her aching temples, realizing for the first time that she was really just bored and had nothing better to do!
"It's okay, contact this lawyer. He won't charge you. He's a friend of mine, and he'll definitely provide excellent service." But right now, she was absolutely not going to go back in and walk right into a trap. She handed the business card to the police officer, adjusted her glasses, and said, "I have other things to do, so I'll be going now."
“Oh, I mean, Attorney Ye… no, Attorney Nie? Attorney Nie…”
.........
Once she got in the car, Siyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But her heart was still in her throat. She gripped the steering wheel with both hands and looked at the construction site through the windshield. The crowd had dispersed, and from this distance, everything on the top floor was blurry. She bit her lip, started the engine, and drove the car back.
When she arrived at the place where Beibei and Tiantian attended their extracurricular classes, the teacher was somewhat surprised to see her. "Oh, are you here to pick up your children so early? Classes haven't ended yet."
"Excuse me, teacher, I have some things to take care of at home today, and I would like to pick up my child first."
Seeing Siyi's anxious expression, the teacher assumed something had really happened at home, so she quickly nodded to indicate that everything was fine and took Siyi and the two children out.
This is a children's palace that specializes in extracurricular classes for kindergarten children. Beibei is learning Taekwondo, and Tiantian loves drawing, so she is learning to draw.
Because Tiantian has no hearing problems, Siyi also arranged for her to stay in this place, so that the two siblings can look after each other.
After picking up the two children, Beibei looked at Siyi with a blank expression. "Mom, what happened today? Why did get out of class end so early?"
Siyi put the two children in the back seat, made sure they fastened their seatbelts, and then got into the driver's seat. As she drove, she recited the speech she had prepared on the road, "Mom has a week-long vacation, so I want to take you to a hot spring."
"really?"
Beibei is very active. Upon hearing this, he instantly jumped up from his seat, then realized he was wearing his seatbelt. He climbed up and gripped the driver's seat with both hands. "Mom, you are the greatest mom in the world! I love you to death!"
This son is good at flattery, but Siyi admits she enjoys it very much. She feels very pleased and reaches out to pinch Beibei's little nose. "You little rascal, your flattery skills are now top-notch. Who taught you that?"
"Does this even need to be taught?"
Beibei looked arrogant, a smug look on her little face. Who says daughters resemble their fathers? Beibei bore too many traces of that person, impossible to erase. "Mom, your son is the smartest man in the world, so I don't need to be taught these words, I was born knowing them!"
"You were born to flatter, weren't you?"
"That's all thanks to my wonderful mother who gave birth to me!"
That little rascal is so clever for his age; he's getting better and better at flattery. "Who told me, Ye Youbei, to be Ye Siyi's son? Ye Siyi is the greatest mother in the world!"
Siyi's smile grew wider and wider, and the emotions that had just been disrupted seemed to be instantly replaced by this warmth. She reached out and patted her son's shoulder, saying softly, "Okay, go sit down and talk to your sister."
Siyi glanced at her daughter sitting in the back through the rearview mirror and saw that Tiantian also had a smile on her face and her eyes were full of anticipation.
Siyi knows that which child doesn't like to go out and play?
Although this was a "refuge" trip.
But it's alright, anyway, she hasn't taken a day off to rest and spend time with her child in a long time.
Back home, she packed her things and then called her boss at the firm. After thinking it over, she decided to take a week off just to be safe. She also called both of her children's homeroom teachers to ask for leave before packing all her things and getting ready to leave.
Because the hot spring she mentioned wasn't too far away, she drove herself, and the two little ones fell asleep halfway there.
Siyi covered them with a light blanket before calling Zheng Muyan, but Zheng Muyan was probably busy and didn't answer.
Siyi simply left him a message, telling him that she had taken her two children out to play and that he didn't need to come over on the weekend. After saying that, she turned off her phone and continued on her way.

B City Airport.
Several people were already standing in a row at the VIP entrance, when suddenly a tall figure emerged from the end of the passage.
Several people immediately rushed forward, respectfully greeting, "President Jiang, you've arrived! The car is all ready. Shall we go to the hotel first, or visit the construction site?"
"Hasn't the situation at the construction site been resolved?"
The man's deep voice possessed a unique magnetism. He wore sunglasses that concealed his most captivating almond-shaped eyes, and his thin lips were slightly pursed. "Have your lawyer come see me. Have you found that contractor yet?"
"The contractor... seems to have run away, but we will find him as soon as possible."
I thought the president would be furious after making such a big blunder, but he just gave a deep "hmm" and said, "Get this done in three days. Now go to the hotel."
Liu Qi breathed a sigh of relief, wondering if she should tell him about what happened at the construction site today. However, seeing that the president looked exhausted, she held back and followed closely behind him, opening the car door for him and getting into the car together.
Once inside the car, Jiang Yanhui reached out and took off her sunglasses, instantly revealing a pair of sexy, narrow peach blossom eyes that exuded a fatal allure.
Five years have honed his features to a deeper level, but his suave and roguish charm still lingers in his every gesture.
Therefore, one often sees a mix of arrogant young master and deep masculinity in him.
This eclectic mix, however, didn't seem out of place at all; it was as if he were born this way, as if he were Jiang Yan Hui.
This man seems even more alluring than before, because he is now not only "Young Master Yan" but also the head of the Jiang family.
People only saw his transformation, but they couldn't see the suffering in his heart.
How long is five years?
For Jiang Yan Hui, it felt like five centuries had passed, an unbearably long time.
Five years ago, on the day he left the hospital, Nie Junwei told him the truth he had found out. When he learned about it, all the workers were stunned.
That was everything he couldn't accept. In truth, he selfishly wished that none of it was real.
He would rather suffer in the world of emotions than be betrayed by his closest loved ones.
His maternal grandfather deceived him, and his mother also deceived him.
He used to think he at least had some family ties, but in the end, he was truly the most pitiful person, having nothing at all...
Lin Qianzhi lived a life of misery in order to win Jiang Jizhen's love, constantly scheming and plotting, even feigning madness. But she could never see her son again. In her last moments, all she had in her heart was her husband, Jiang Jizhen, and not her son, Jiang Yanhui.
To ensure that Lin Qianzhi's image as a loving mother remained strong in his heart, Lin Zhenbiao did so many things afterward, shifting all the blame onto Guan Fengru. What he found most unacceptable was—
Back then, Siyi told him about the incident where her biological mother died at the hands of Jiang Jizhen. After investigating, he learned that the person who actually killed Guan Fengying was Lin Qianzhi.
For the first time, he felt his life was incredibly absurd. It turned out that it wasn't her mother who killed his mother, but rather his mother who killed her mother...
It turns out that the person he had always believed in, the truth he had always believed in, was completely overturned overnight.
His life seemed to have been completely turned upside down.
It turns out that he had been living in a "family web" woven from lies, naively believing that everything he saw was the truth. But the truth was so cruel.
So, when Lin Qianzhi attempted suicide at the hospital, Jiang Jizhen said that the woman he loved most back then died at the hands of his wife.
He never truly loved Lin Qianzhi. He only loved one woman deeply, but at that time he couldn't fight against the Lin family, so he could only watch helplessly as the woman he loved died at the hands of the man beside him.
So in those years, he hated himself intensely. Regardless of whether he was his biological son or not, every time he saw him, he would always remember that no matter how glamorous Jiang Jizhen looked to outsiders, he was still a good-for-nothing when he came home.
He can't even protect his own woman...
Jiang Yanhui has never forgotten that day in the hospital corridor when Jiang Jizhen wanted to tell the truth, but Lin Zhenbiao kept threatening him and preventing him from speaking.
But in the end, he only said a little bit. At that time, he was still unwilling to believe everything, but he still agreed to let them get a divorce.
But in the end, I found out that the woman was actually Guan Fengying.
He didn't know if all of this was a joke God was playing on him, but he really couldn't laugh.
He locked himself in his room, looking at the documents, smoking for three days and three nights without eating anything.
She eventually fainted from stomach pain and was discovered by the family's maid, who took her to the hospital.
When he arrived at the hospital, he realized that he should have gone to find that woman. He felt he owed her an apology, even though he knew that an apology was not enough to make up for anything.
But by the time he arrived at the hospital, the woman had already left, and after that, he seemed to have lost all contact with her.
For two months, he searched frantically, but the people he sent out always seemed to be separated by a wall.
She said she went to England, so he immediately flew to England as well.
But after searching all over Britain, there was still no news.
Then he heard she had gone to France, so he flew there, but still couldn't find her...
He spent two months flying around, but still couldn't find her; there was no news of her whatsoever.
At that time, he knew that he seemed to possess supreme power.
Actually, all of that was given to her by Lin Zhenbiao. When he wanted to take it back, Jiang Yan Hui was nothing...
When a man cries because of a woman.
Only then will you understand what a real man is and what a man should do.
He knew why he had lost it.
Instead of confronting Lin Zhenbiao, he composed himself, buried all his emotions deep within his heart, and nonchalantly took over the Jiang family business. He pretended to know nothing and threw himself wholeheartedly into his work. Lin Zhenbiao seemed quite satisfied with him. The Jiang family business had been on the verge of collapse, but with Lin Zhenbiao's help, it got back on track in just one year, leading to the successful Jiang Yanhui of today.
Yes, he is no longer the Jiang Yanhui he used to be.
One sentence from Jiang Jizhen had appeared in his mind countless times.
He said with endless pain and regret, "The thing I regret most in this life is meeting Lin Qianzhi. You have no idea how much I hate her. My most beloved woman died at her hands. But I can't fight against the Lin family. I will always just be a pawn in their game. I'm not strong enough."
Therefore, he is ambitious!
"President, we've arrived at the hotel."
When the car stopped, Liu Qi cautiously turned her head and saw Jiang Yan sitting lazily in the back seat.
His face was calm, but his eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something, and there were too many complex emotions floating between his brows.
It seemed both resolute and tender, with a touch of sternness...
