Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 679

"Tell me, what exactly does Shanyu Pavilion mean?" Ye Yuning asked, each word heavy with sorrow.

When he left, he was nonchalant and open, leaving no words behind.

Then came the divorce agreement, severing their relationship!

And now he was asking her what Shanyu Pavilion amounted to?

As Ye Yuning spoke, Xiao Linye felt a suffocating pain in his chest.

Ye Yuning said, "I don’t know what it amounts to. Can you tell me, please?"

Xiao Linye murmured, "Ningning..."

Listening to her question, devoid of any sharp tone, every word nonetheless felt like a sharp blade, piercing deeply into Xiao Linye’s heart.

It caused him wave after wave of pain.

He was in pain, intense pain.

"Regardless, in one week, we are going back to Upper City."

We are going back!

His tone was very firm.

No matter how icy Ye Yuning’s attitude was towards him now, his stance was resolute.

Ye Yuning stated, "I won’t go back with you."

"You must go back!"

As his words fell, the air in the hospital room quieted once more.

Xiao Linye felt the suffocation, his heart clenching painfully.

"I said, I am not going back!" Ye Yuning reiterated forcefully, word by word.

This time Xiao Linye did not respond, but his silence said it all.

He rose and left the hospital room.

At that moment, Ye Yuning’s coldness made him acutely aware of the suffocating atmosphere.

Not long after he left, Tang Xi came in.

Seeing Ye Yuning’s back, Tang Xi was momentarily unsure what to say.

With a sigh, she said, "I just received a call from Ling Yan. She said that Old Master Xiao has completely given up on Xiao Shuo, and it’s almost certain that we won’t get that sum of money."

Ye Yuning scoffed, "Heh, typical of the Xiao Family!"

Tang Xi was silent for a moment. Indeed!

Let alone over a hundred billion, even one billion—in Old Master Xiao’s heart, this grandson probably wasn’t worth that much.

And from what Ling Yan implied on the phone, it seemed Old Master Xiao in Upper City was now thoroughly infuriated.

"She and Gui Xingli are both very worried about you," Tang Xi added after some thought.

Why Gui Xingli would worry about Ye Yuning, Tang Xi wasn’t quite sure, but why Ling Yan would react this way was even more baffling.

Especially since the two had always been at odds back in school.

Who would have thought that now...

Ye Yuning closed her eyes briefly. "Xixi."

"Hmm?" 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

"I feel so overwhelmed."

Overnight, Ye Yuning felt her world had become incredibly chaotic, to the point where even she didn’t know what exactly had happened.

She had always been a person of clarity, but now...

Tang Xi didn’t respond immediately. Faced with Ye Yuning’s words, she found herself at a loss.

Chaotic, was it?

Truth be told, Ye Yuning’s world was indeed in turmoil, even seemingly trapped in a dead end.

She had done nothing wrong—anything she did was merely instinctual self-preservation.

But now, neither the Xiao Family nor the Qi Family seemed willing to let her off the hook.

"Whose world isn’t chaotic? To this day, I still don’t even know who fathered my two children."

If only one child hadn’t been Jiang Bo’s, that would have been one thing! But for neither of them to be his—that was just unbelievably strange.

Ye Yuning remained silent. At the mention of Tang Xi’s predicament, she too found herself without words.

It had to be said that life is like a play; everyone’s world is messy, it’s just that some people dwell on it while others don’t.

In the hospital room, Ye Yuning and Tang Xi both sighed in dismay.

Just outside, Xiao Linye and Qin Jinchuan sat side by side. They had just had a fight that had been far from light, yet now, there they were, sitting together.

Although Ji Nan and Kang Xuan stood at a distance, both were on high alert, watching the two men closely, fearful of another confrontation.

The tension in the air was suffocating!

After a long moment, Xiao Linye was the first to break the silence. "If you don’t want to see her in danger again, don’t stop her from returning to Upper City with me."

At these words, Qin Jinchuan’s brow twitched. Such an implication...

"You speak as if Upper City is very safe."

"Staying in Turanxi isn’t safe for her either, now is it?"

Qin Jinchuan fell silent. Well, that was a fact.

At the moment, they only knew that people from Old Master Xiao had come to Turanxi. They had no idea if the Qi Family was up to anything.

If Xiao Linye had already expressed his intention to break off the engagement with the Qi Family, it was possible those people would also be pushed to desperation.

With this in mind, Qin Jinchuan’s breathing grew heavier.

Most of their influence was concentrated in Upper City; here in Turanxi, both Ye Yuning and he had only recently arrived.

"Also, there’s something very suspicious about Shang Yu," Xiao Linye added coldly.

Qin Jinchuan was quiet for a moment. Shang Yu... It was better not to bring him up. But now that Xiao Linye had... He had seemed very caring towards Ye Yuning lately. Yet, it was he who had introduced the person in charge of the Southwest Province Tourism Bureau to Ye Yuning, and then this incident occurred.

He then said aloud, "He shouldn’t have any reason to target Ye Yuning. That night’s incident was likely just an unfortunate accident."

Qin Jinchuan knew Xiao Linye had a long-standing feud with Shang Yu and was aware that Shang Yu was a troublesome character. He was incredibly difficult to deal with. In short, having a conflict with him was never a good thing.

Upon hearing Qin Jinchuan’s assessment, Xiao Linye’s eyes darkened. "Then what if I told you... Yuning is Hanyi’s sister?"

Qin Jinchuan was startled. "What did you say?" He looked incredulously at Xiao Linye.
