Chapter 184 -184: Who is Threatening Whom
Tang Yu was so frightened that she lost her breath, and her head was spinning for a moment.
It seemed that if she didn’t speak, the other person wouldn’t know who she was.
“Why aren’t you speaking? Why is this person you?” Lin Shuhuan held her phone, her shock no less than Tang Yu’s, “Since you won’t speak, let’s talk face to face! I’ll wait for you at home.”
After she finished speaking, she tossed the phone to Wei Yuzhu and turned to leave the restroom.
Seeing that the call on the screen was still active, Wei Yuzhu held the phone to her ear, “Hello? Tang Yu?”
“…I’m here.”
“What should we do now? Should I go and explain to her that my call was just about Li Xue’s matter…”
“No need, she must have heard what you said on the call. Don’t worry, I’ll handle it.”
After comforting Wei Yuzhu, Tang Yu sat down on the sofa, her heart racing and feeling unbearably heavy, her consciousness in utter disarray.
She hadn’t expected Lin Shuhuan to be the first to find out…
What would Lin Shuhuan do after finding out the child was Ye Sihan’s?
While she still wanted to leave quickly, right now, her most immediate concern was Lin Shuhuan.
Tang Yu left the apartment and headed to Lin Shuhuan’s villa district.
She was still driven by the chauffeur; if she had taken a cab herself, Ye Sihan would have found out anyway, which would have been futile.
Upon entering the living room, she saw Lin Shuhuan sitting alone on the sofa. There used to be servants, but now the entire house was so quiet it seemed there was no one else.
That made sense, as the matter was not yet confirmed and it was a private issue.
“Sit down!” Lin Shuhuan had restrained her emotions a lot by now, her eyes full of loathing as she looked at Tang Yu. After Tang Yu sat down, Lin Shuhuan continued, “Look at the photo in front of you.”
Tang Yu saw a photo face down on the coffee table in front of her, not knowing what it depicted.
She picked it up and flipped it over.

She instantly recognized the boy facing the camera with a fierce and unsmiling expression, evidently not fond of being photographed.
Junjun?
That was Tang Yu’s first reaction upon seeing him, because in both appearance and expression, he was the spitting image of Junjun.
Zhengzheng and Haohao had the same face but different expressions.
Looking at the strange woman behind the boy, smiling.
No, this wasn’t Junjun, this was… Ye Sihan as a child, with the woman behind him being Ye Sihan’s mother.
“Do you think he resembles the boy from the quadruplets that day?” Lin Shuhuan watched Tang Yu, “Aren’t they exactly the same? I think there’s no need to take Sihan’s sample for a paternity test now, right?”
Tang Yu placed the photo back on the coffee table, without a word, trying to remain calm.
But her tightly clenched fingers betrayed her inner turmoil.
She had always thought the quadruplets didn’t resemble Ye Sihan; she hadn’t expected that it wasn’t a lack of resemblance, but rather that they hadn’t fully matured yet.
“Three years ago, you had a one-night stand with Sihan in a bar, and then gave birth to quadruplets, right?” Lin Shuhuan wasn’t asking—she was almost certain.
“At that time, I didn’t know who he was… I wanted to abort the pregnancy, but the doctor said it was quadruplets, and I didn’t have the heart to do it, so I gave birth to them…” Tang Yu said, looking down, her voice lacking confidence.
“You truly have no shame!” Lin Shuhuan was uncontrollably furious, unable to sit still, she abruptly stood up, pointing her finger at Tang Yu’s face, “You actually had the audacity to bear four children behind Sihan’s back! And to calculate on Sihan to support the four children! What are you plotting? Oh, I know. Support first, then threaten Sihan with the four children, securing your luxurious lifestyle for the rest of your life!”
In such a situation, she was still entangled with Ye Yuli! The more she thought about it, the angrier she got!
“Why would I beat around the bush? If I just told him about the existence of the four children, I could still live in luxury.” Tang Yu’s complexion didn’t look good after being spoken about in this manner.
“You think I don’t know what you’re thinking? Others might not see it, but I can see right through you!” Lin Shuhuan said with disdain, sneering, “The children are still young and don’t remember anything. Sihan could fight for custody, marry someone suitable. In a couple of years, who would still remember their biological mother?”
Tang Yu marveled at Lin Shuhuan’s imagination.
From another perspective, she really was considered despicable to the core in Lin Shuhuan’s mind.
“If I had known who Ye Sihan was at the beginning, I wouldn’t have given birth to his children. But whether it’s now or in the future, I will not give the children to Ye Sihan,” Tang Yu stated firmly. “From pregnancy to giving birth, especially to quadruplets, can you imagine the hardship I went through? I hope you won’t tell Ye Sihan about the children; I will take the children and leave Kyoto right now.”
“Will Sihan let you leave? What are you pretending for? Or are you planning to come back after the children have grown up and claim their heritage?”
“So what do you want to do? Tell Ye Sihan?” Tang Yu asked.
That was the outcome she least wanted to face.
As long as Lin Shuhuan didn’t tell Ye Sihan, Tang Yu was willing to do anything.
Lin Shuhuan said nothing, walking back and forth in the living room.
This was a huge matter—four children! What if Tang Yu took the children away and then came back?
Plus, these were Ye Sihan’s own flesh and blood; why should she let her take them away?
The children were still young; even if Tang Yu misled them, there would still be time to correct it.
To inform Ye Sihan?
Thinking of how Ye Sihan was so eager to have Tang Yu bear his children, the revelation of these four kids might make him marry her straight away, right?
It’s highly likely!
She felt that Ye Sihan was already so bewitched by that little vixen that he wasn’t thinking straight. Upon seeing four children so cute and smart—and his own at that—would he even have any intelligence left then?
Especially Yu Zhaohui, who was wholeheartedly hoping for her daughter to marry well and soar high, wouldn’t this make her laugh her head off?
She absolutely must not have her way!
No! Absolutely not!
Then, there was only one option left, keep the child away from its mother!
Tang Yu, watching Lin Shuhuan pacing back and forth in deep thought, also became increasingly uneasy.
After pondering, she wouldn’t actually disclose the matter of the children to Ye Sihan, would she?
There were only two possible answers, to tell or not to tell, yet it made her so nervous that she felt weak in her hands and feet.
Just then, the sound of a car engine came from outside.
Upon hearing it, Lin Shuhuan knew her son had returned and said, “Wait until I’ve thought it through before I tell you, now you may go.”
“You won’t tell Ye Sihan, will you? As long as you don’t tell him, I’m willing to do anything,” Tang Yu said eagerly.
“Even if I were to tell him, I’ll give you time to prepare yourself mentally,” Lin Shuhuan said.
Trusting that she would follow through, Tang Yu stood up, “Thank you.”
Just about to leave the living room, she ran into Ye Yuli coming in.
Ye Yuli saw her and froze for a moment, “What are you doing here?” and then he looked sternly toward Lin Shuhuan inside.
“Do you think I could eat her up? It was just a call over for a cup of tea,” Lin Shuhuan said, though her face remained very cold.
Was this the attitude of inviting someone for tea?
Tang Yu stepped aside, avoiding Ye Yuli, and left.
Ye Yuli followed, grabbing her arm, “What are you doing here? Did my mom give you a hard time?”
Tang Yu pulled back her arm, “No. She just wants me to stay away from Ye Sihan, so I won’t be a calamity to him.”
“I’ll wait for your call,” Ye Yuli said.
Tang Yu was about to say something when her phone’s ringtone erupted, aggressively interrupting her.
Like a demon that followed her every move, it put her on high alert.
“I’m leaving,” she said without answering the call, and got back into her car.
The car drove away from the villa.
Looking at the caller ID on her phone screen, Tang Yu knew it was Ye Sihan.
She answered, “What is it?”
“Where are you?”
“Why ask when you already know?” Tang Yu responded and then felt a sense of oppression seeping through, “Lin Shuhuan called me to say that the children are gone and told me to stay far away from you, so I don’t bring disaster upon you.”
“Next time she contacts you, let me know in advance,” Ye Sihan said sternly.
“No need, it’s not a big deal anyway,” Tang Yu refused. “By the way, I have something to tell you, I’m not going back to the Ye Mansion. I’ll stay in the apartment.”
“That’s not acceptable,” Ye Sihan commanded.
“Don’t try to threaten me. I’d rather die than be threatened!” Tang Yu hung up the phone abruptly.
Ye Sihan threw the phone onto the desk with a snap, furious.
His face was dark and ominous.
Who exactly is threatening whom?
Without his permission, could she even die?
If it weren’t for her current physical condition, he would have her killed!
When Tang Yu got back to the apartment and closed the door, she leaned back on the sofa, relieved.
Remembering that the apartment might be dusty, she got up to start cleaning.
Only then did she realize that the place was very clean.
Not like when she first came in and could clearly see a layer of dust.
Her hand brushed over the coffee table, the desk, and all the corners; it was spotless.
Someone had been in the apartment, and they had cleaned it thoroughly.
