He broke his vows for her, and a tycoon descended to earth for love.

Chapter 309 Because I love you



Chapter 309 Because I love you

Without any questioning or even a mention, he simply hugged her and said those three words, "I'm sorry." That was because of his trust in her. Some trust doesn't need to be spoken. She could feel that he hadn't doubted her for even a second.

All the grievances and panic seemed to find an outlet at this moment. She could finally stop pretending to be strong; only she knew how terrified she truly was.

Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. Jiang Yan's clothes were already wet, but her tears were warm, clinging to his chest. They must have been salty, possessing a power to pierce the heart. In that instant, his heart clenched, making it hard to breathe.

Over the years, he had rarely seen her cry like this. Her hands were tightly gripping her clothes, and her whole body was curled up in his arms. She was so fragile and helpless that he felt so sorry for her that he didn't know what to do.

"Don't cry." He leaned down, his voice gentle and his movements tender, cupping her cheeks and gently kissing away the tear tracks on her face. "Baby, don't cry. I won't let anything happen to you. I'll take you back right away. I won't leave you here alone."

"No." Siyi shook her head, her voice choked with sobs. "This is City B, not City A. Besides, this matter is too complicated. I don't want you to do anything out of line. Moreover, Tiantian is still in the United States, Beibei's whereabouts are unknown, and I've done this... Yan Hui, you absolutely cannot have anything else happen to you. I've already asked my older brother to find Xia Ran. She will help me find out the truth."

“But how can I leave you alone in a place like this?” Jiang Yan looked around. Anyone would feel bored in an interrogation room like this for a long time, let alone now that she was accused of murder, in a place like B City, where his and Ye Zhenghao’s power had been relatively diminished. How could he feel at ease if she wasn’t under his watchful eye? “No, I can’t leave you here alone.”

“Yan Hui, listen to me.” Si Yi craned her neck to look into his eyes and said calmly, “Actually, I was terrified before. I’ve never encountered anything like this before. But after you came in, I realized that it’s not so scary after all, because I didn’t do it. I’m a lawyer myself, and I believe the law is fair. The law will definitely clear my name. And you believe me, don’t you? That’s enough. If I leave here, they will definitely think I have something to hide. Believe me, my brother has already taken care of things. They won’t do anything to me.”

"But……"

Siyi interrupted him stubbornly and softly, "Yan Hui, I know you care about me, but you should think about how far this matter is going. It's not an ordinary case; it involves a life, and our relationship is so complicated... If you try to get me out of here now, I think it will definitely backfire."

Jiang Yanhui's thick, sword-like eyebrows furrowed, his expression showing irritation. He knew, of course, that Siyi's concerns were valid.

On the way here, he had already considered many possibilities. Ye Zhenghao had also given him a preliminary analysis of the whole situation. He hadn't uttered a single word throughout, but he already had a general idea of ​​what was going on. This matter was indeed not simple. Although he wouldn't say he knew Ying Rui very well, he was quite certain that she wasn't a particularly bold girl. On the contrary, because of her young age and inexperience, she wasn't very courageous, nor was her stance very firm. Therefore, it was completely unreasonable to think that she would harm someone for the sake of so-called "love."

“Your older brother has told me the gist of the matter, but I want to hear your thoughts.” After all, she should be the one who knows the whole story best. “Sisi, whatever you’ve thought of, don’t hide it from me. Tell me so I can help you.”

Siyi glanced at him with a wry smile. His eyes were so meaningful. What exactly did his words, "No matter what you're thinking, don't hide it from me," mean? How could she not understand?

"What you can think of is what I can think of." Without much clear evidence, and without even an autopsy, she might have some doubts, but she wouldn't make any wild claims.

She understood perfectly well that this seemingly strong man was not invincible in his heart, and how could she not understand the pain of being deceived by her own family?

"Yan Hui, promise me you'll handle this calmly. No matter what happens, you must find the child first. Also... I've thought about it, and right now, Tian Tian is safest in America. Didn't you say that doctor is your good friend? Then please ask him to take good care of Tian Tian. If she comes back, I'm afraid I'll be distracted." Although she missed her daughter terribly, things were already in chaos here, and she really didn't want to involve her daughter anymore. Besides, her son had gotten into such a mess, so she had to be careful.

Jiang Yan understood her good intentions. Looking at her haggard face, she saw a torrent of suppressed emotions in her eyes.

He kissed her forehead, and finally said in a deep voice, "Baby, I will agree to everything you said. I'm sorry for making you suffer all this, it's all my fault. I don't know how to tell you this. Five years later, when I met you, I kept telling myself that I would never let go of your hand again, that I would never let you suffer any more pain, that I would protect you and our child, that I would give you the happiness that every woman in the world would envy. But I failed, and I put you in this situation. It's my fault..."

His eyes were so close, so dark and deep, reflecting her own eyes, which were filled with a misty haze, as if frozen in time.

He said, "Please forgive me."

Forgive me, even though I knew too much of the truth five years ago, I always thought about the old man's kindness in raising me, everything he had given me, and that he was my grandfather. So I always turned a blind eye to his actions. If I had been more vigilant, more ruthless, perhaps none of this would have happened…

Siyi bit her lip to hold back the urge to cry. She shook her head desperately, her throat feeling sore and dry. She wanted to tell him that she had never blamed him, that none of this was his fault, and that she understood how he felt. After all, he was her maternal grandfather, and the person he was facing was the elder who had raised him since childhood. How could she not understand the torment he was going through?

Siyi didn't know what to say at that moment, so she reached out and cupped his face, then stood on tiptoe without hesitation and kissed his lips.

The wet tear stains dried beneath his soft lips. Jiang Yanhui's body stiffened for only a second before he slowly lowered his head, turning the tables and taking the initiative. His lips were burning hot; Siyi felt as if they were branding irons, while she was ice. Every bit of heat melted her a little, as if water droplets were falling softly in the small, dimly lit room.

He embraced her again, deeply and forcefully. Their lips and tongues intertwined in a passionate kiss, so intense and lingering, carrying each other's familiar scents that reached the depths of their souls, igniting them inch by inch. They had been intimate countless times, but never with such tender passion, as if they wanted to merge into each other's very being.

In the entanglement of lips and tongue, a silent murmur flowed between their breaths.

Because I love you, because I've always been unwilling to accept it, because I was unwilling to give up, I finally realized that my love for you is unstoppable. So I can only hold on to you even tighter, even if it means being pierced by a thousand arrows, I'm willing to give myself to you.

Neither of them said those three words, but he knew, and she knew too.

In the end, Siyi pushed him away forcefully. Jiang Yanhui's eyes were still filled with confusion and bewilderment, and his chest was heaving violently, as if he still wanted to hold her in his arms again.

She pushed him away with her hand and whispered, "Someone's coming."

The people who came in were naturally police officers. Standing at the door, their faces were full of embarrassment. In fact, Siyi was currently a criminal suspect, and it was a murder case. If it weren't for the two powerful men standing behind her, she would never have received such treatment. So the police officer was really in a dilemma at the door. Finally, after glancing at Jiang Yanhui, whose face was deep, he said very tactfully, "Excuse me, um... there are cameras in this room, so please, cough... just be careful."

With so many people watching outside, how can a suspect be seen hugging and cuddling with a man like this? It's really against the rules. Even if this man is Jiang Yanhui, this isn't his home. A police station should behave like a police station!

Jiang Yanhui always acted arrogantly in front of outsiders, never taking anyone else seriously. Upon hearing this, his expression hardened even more. He was naturally displeased that his good time had been interrupted. Just as he was about to say something, Siyi stopped him a step faster. Her face was slightly red, from shyness, but she had no choice but to speak up, "I'm sorry, he... he'll be leaving soon."

"Sisi..."

Jiang Yan frowned, somewhat displeased, but Si Yi interrupted him, saying softly, "There are rules here, and we shouldn't make things difficult for others. Also, you should quickly send someone to City A to bring Xia Ran over. Then you and she should go to the crime scene as soon as possible. If there are any clues there, the 24-hour window is the most effective."

Although the hope was really too slim, and there had been a heavy rain before, she thought that there is always a way out, and God would surely give her justice for what she had not done!
