It only took one sentence to reveal his ident.i.ty.
Jian Yunzhou sneered and extended his hand. He greeted, “Mr. Ye, your reputation certainly precedes you. Quite impressive.”
“Same here.” Ye Nanshen replied.
Despite the seemingly ordinary conversation, Rong Qi sensed a hint of something unusual in their words. Sitting between them, she felt like a mushroom with a cool breeze blowing over her head.
After a brief chat, Jian Yunzhou suddenly asked, “By the way, 1 haven’t asked when and where your wedding was held?”
Ye Nanshen glanced at Rong Qi and was about to respond when Rong Qi spoke up, “Yunzhou, we didn’t have a wedding. Nanshen has been treating me well, and 1 don’t mind the formalities.”
“Is there really no wedding? Why?” Jian Yunzhou inquired.
“Yunzhou,” Rong Qi frowned.
However, Ye Nanshen gently held Rong Qi’s hand and smiled faintly, “We didn’t have a wedding, which is also my regret. 1 owe it to Little Qi, and I will make it up to her in the future.”
It wasn’t just a response to Jian Yunzhou; it was what he had always thought. The matter was still uncertain, and he didn’t want to expose Rong Qi to danger. Once their relationship became public, it would undoubtedly attract attention and potentially put her at risk. He wouldn’t do that.
Hearing Ye Nanshen’s words, Rong Qi’s eyes flickered with a hint of unusual emotion. Her fingers moved slightly, but she was suddenly stopped by Ye Nanshen’s large hand. Their fingers intertwined, and she couldn’t help but smile.
Their marriage had been an unexpected combination, but they didn’t expect that it would lead to the development of such deep feelings between them.
Jian Yunzhou felt sour. He thought, ‘What are they doing? Am 1 invisible to them?’
Jian Yunzhou clenched his fists and coughed. He said, “Rong Rong, could you make me a cup of tea? I’m feeling thirsty.”
Rong Qi looked at the cup of tea placed in front of Jian Yunzhou and found it unnecessary. She wanted to say that Zhuang Ling had already brought tea, and he hadn’t even drunk it.
But knowing that Jian Yunzhou was trying to divert her, Rong Qi nodded and released her hand from Ye Nanshen’s grip. She got up and went to make tea.
With Rong Qi gone, the atmosphere on the couch changed abruptly.
Jian Yunzhou’s voice turned cold and said, “Regardless of how you and Rong Rong got together, 1 hope you’ll consider separating. You’re not suitable for each other. Her life has been tough enough, and she can’t bear any more turbulence.”
“It is unwise to destroy a marriage. Mr. Jian, how do you know that Little Qi’s life with me is tough?” Ye Nanshen responded.
“Just based on the complexities of the Ye family. You haven’t even been sure about going public yourself. Do you think you can protect her from those matters?”
Ye Nanshen narrowed his eyes and moved his fingers slightly. He said, “I won’t do anything that might hurt her. My family is complicated, but 1 will protect her.”
Jian Yunzhou scoffed and asked, “Would you like to hear about Rong Rong’s past?”
“Enlighten me,” Ye Nanshen said.
Jian Yunzhou raised an eyebrow and said, “Even before Rong Rong was born, the marriage between her parents was already in name only. Rong Tianshi had an affair during the marriage, and Madam Chu cheated on her husband while they were still married. After Rong Rong was born, they made the determined decision to divorce, and both of them wanted nothing to do with the newborn Rong Rong. Rong Tianshi was in a hurry to take over the outside world and did not care about Madam Chu who had just given birth. Madam hated the child that could not be aborted to the core. When the doctor was not watching, she secretly carried the baby out and threw her into the trash can.”
Jian Yunzhou’s voice was extremely calm and emotionless. It was as if he was narrating something he did regularly. It could not be any more ordinary.
Ye Nanshen listened and felt pain in his heart. Although it wasn’t new to him, hearing it from someone else’s mouth was like reopening an old, healed wound, causing a fresh pain..
