Next second, her mouth was covered by Su Chengyu.
“Yushan, don’t say any more!”
Already together? And vowed their love?
So this wasn’t their first time. Su Chengyu had already been secretly involved with Lu Yushan, truly cuckolding her.
She only regretted being blind and deaf, having had no inkling of it.
Lu Yushan, unable to breathe with Su Chengyu’s hand over her mouth, pushed him forcefully, sending him stumbling towards Yin Xi.
Yin Xi, her heart boiling with rage and with nowhere to vent, instinctively kicked him hard between the legs.
The man yelped, his face contorted in pain as he clutched his groin.
“You… you…” he stammered, unable to form a coherent sentence.
“Chengyu, are you okay?” Lu Yushan rushed forward, supporting him with a look of concern.
“Su Chengyu, you scumbag! Remember, it’s me, this young lady, who is dumping you today!”
Pausing, Yin Xi then glared at Lu Yutong, a sneer gracing her lips, her eyes filled with contempt.
“A scumbag and a green tea bitch, a perfect match indeed! I wish you infertility and that your lineage dies out, never to birth any scummy offspring to pollute the world!”
With that, she turned and walked away with a flourish, her high heels clicking on the ground.
Lu Yushan’s hysterical shriek followed her, “Yin Xi, you lunatic, what are you so smug about? Let’s see how long you can stay high and mighty!”
The moment the door slammed shut, Yin Xi’s tears erupted.
From last night to this moment, she had endured so much. It was no wonder she felt like she was losing her mind.
Which heavenly deity had she offended to have all these sorrowful misfortunes befall her at once?
After what happened last night, she had still felt a pang of guilt towards him.
She had loved him for a full three years, never letting him touch her, wanting to save her most precious self for their wedding night, to give herself to him completely.
She wasn’t a promiscuous girl; she was still influenced by traditional values.
“Xixi, no matter what kind of man you fall in love with in the future, never give yourself away too easily.”
“Some things are more beautiful and memorable when saved for the wedding night!”
Her mother’s dying words often echoed in her ears.
She recalled Su Chengyu telling her not long ago that after she graduated from university, they would meet each other’s parents and finalize their marriage.
All lies, it turned out. He had long since grown impatient and got involved with Lu Yushan.
And that Lu Yushan was even more detestable. Knowing full well that Su Chengyu was her boyfriend, she had still engaged in such illicit acts with him.
It seemed that her usual closeness, her display of gentleness, kindness, and concern for her, were all a facade.
Her goal was to steal her boyfriend.
Thinking of this, Yin Xi broke out in a cold sweat.
How could there be such a vicious and hypocritical green tea bitch in the world?
She was fortunate to have heeded her mother’s dying wish and not become too deeply entangled in this relationship.
The green tea bitch had gotten her scumbag, revealing their true colors, and she had cut her losses in time.
Back in the car, Yin Xi had regained her composure after the betrayal.
That kind of love and friendship, in retrospect, was disgusting. It was not worth her grief or her lingering affection.
Her immediate priority was to handle her father’s funeral arrangements and the company affairs.
Both her parents were now gone, but she had to be strong and protect their home, as she still had a sick younger brother to care for.
Yin Zhe, I hope you haven’t heard the dreadful news from home yet.
“Teacher Xu, hello! I am Yin Zhe’s sister, Yin Xi!” Yin Xi immediately took out her phone and called the homeroom teacher of Yin Zhe’s boarding school.
“Miss Yin, hello! Is there something you need?”
“Have you seen the news today? Regarding our family matters, please… please keep it from Yin Zhe. You know his heart condition is serious.”
Yin Xi’s mother, Shen Wan, had passed away five years ago due to heart disease.
Yin Zhe had inherited his mother’s illness from a young age and had always been frail.
For years, fearing the strain of car travel, Yin Yuan had arranged for him to live at school since middle school, only returning home once every two weeks.
“Understood. Miss Yin, please rest assured, I will certainly keep this information confidential.”
Hanging up the phone, Yin Xi closed her eyes gently, two streams of tears slowly trickling down her cheeks.
She searched her mind desperately but couldn’t find anyone who could help her.
It was her own fault for not listening to her father’s advice years ago and stubbornly choosing journalism, her favorite major.
She knew nothing about the company’s affairs.
Now that the family was in crisis, as the eldest daughter of the Yin family, she was utterly helpless.
At this moment, her phone rang again.
“Sister Zhou, what is it?” Yin Xi answered immediately upon seeing it was their housekeeper.
“Miss, where are you? Some people from the court have arrived and are preparing to seal the main gate. Hurry back!”
Sister Zhou’s anxious and urgent voice came through the phone.
“Okay. I’m coming right away!” Yin Xi hung up the phone in a panic.
Could their home also be lost?
When Yin Xi drove back to the Yin family villa, she saw two uniformed staff members standing there.
After identifying themselves, they had her sign a notice and confiscated the red car she had just driven back.
Upon her pleading, they granted her thirty minutes to gather her belongings.
Half an hour later, Yin Xi and Sister Zhou pushed their suitcases out of the Yin family villa.
After taking just a few steps, Yin Xi turned back to look, and the two enforcement officers had already affixed the seal to the main gate.
Tears welled up instantly in Yin Xi’s eyes. Sister Zhou, wiping away a tear, looked at her with sympathy.
“Miss, what are your plans now? Where are you going to go?”
Yin Xi paused, suddenly realizing she had no relatives in this city and no place to go.
“I… I don’t know.”
“How about this? If you don’t mind, Miss, you can stay with me for now. I live alone anyway.” Sister Zhou suggested with genuine sincerity.
“Alright. Thank you, Sister Zhou!” Gratitude was etched on Yin Xi’s bitter face.
By this time, dusk was settling in. As Yin Xi and Sister Zhou walked out of the community gate, they flagged down a taxi. Just as they were about to get in, someone called her name from behind.
“Yin Xi!”
Yin Xi turned her head and saw Lu Yushan’s face, a sight that nauseated her.
“Sister Zhou, you go back first. I have something to attend to. Later, just send me your address.” Yin Xi said to the already boarding Sister Zhou, then closed the car door.
The taxi slowly pulled away. At this moment, Lu Yushan had already reached her.
“Lu Yushan, what are you doing here? Are you here to get beaten up again?” Yin Xi stood facing the wind, her gaze sharp as she glared at her.
