Chapter 222 -222: So Heartbroken
Auntie prefers to bully the weak and fears the strong and definitely didn’t want to actually end up in jail.
Although the water dispenser was returned, her face showed a stinginess, “Where are you from? Is it your place to interfere with the affairs of the Li Family?”
Uncle also sided with Auntie, sizing Tang Yu up and down before pointing at her, “Are you asking for a trimming?”
“She’s Xiaoxue’s friend. That’s enough, you two should go back now!” Li Xue’s father really couldn’t bear it anymore.
Finally, Uncle and Auntie left, still cursing under their breath.
Afterward, Li Xue’s parents took her to Li Xue’s gravesite.
It was in the woods not far away.
Tang Yu couldn’t help but cry as she watched, tears streaming down.
She still couldn’t believe that the person sleeping inside was Li Xue.
The one who always considered things on her behalf, who helped her, was already dead.
“Xiaoxue was lucky to have a friend like you,” Li Xue’s father said.
But Tang Yu felt like she was the lucky one.
She looked toward Li Xue’s parents.
They seemed to have aged a decade in the short time she hadn’t seen them, with more and more white hair.
“But there was also a man who came last time, said he was a friend,” Li Xue’s father said.
Tang Yu was startled, “A friend? Visiting Sister Xue’s grave?”
“Yes! He didn’t say anything, just looked for a while and then left.”
Tang Yu grew suspicious; she didn’t recall Li Xue having a male friend. Someone who would visit Li Xue’s grave wouldn’t be just an ordinary friend.
Could it be a boyfriend?

No way.
Ever since Li Xue injured her knee, she had been staying between the hospital and her apartment and had no way to go out and meet other people.
If there really was someone she liked, she wouldn’t have been unaware of it.
“What did he look like?” Tang Yu wanted Li Xue’s parents to describe the man.
“He was tall and quite handsome, and from his clothes, he seemed wealthy. He also left money for us when he left.”
Hearing the description, an image of Ye Sihan formed in Tang Yu’s mind.
Was it him?
When did he come? During the time she was escaping?
She didn’t have a photo of Ye Sihan on her phone, so she couldn’t be sure.
Inside the highest authority’s office of KING Group, Xiao Yu reported his findings, “Mr. Ye, Ye Yuli has gone to Li Xue’s hometown.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the temperature in the office drop precipitously, cold as an ice cellar.
Ye Sihan looked at him with a fierce and brooding expression, “It seems she really doesn’t want the child.”
Xiao Yu cautiously said, “Tang Yu is probably trying to find out who killed Li Xue. Ye Yuli found out and followed her.”
“What are you waiting for? Go and bring her back!” Ye Sihan’s enraged demeanor was truly frightening.
“Yes!” Xiao Yu turned and left, then heard Ye Sihan speak again in a deep tone—
“I’ll go personally!”
Xiao Yu thought to himself that Tang Yu was in trouble!
He really felt a chill on her behalf!
After Li Xue’s parents left, Tang Yu stood alone in front of Li Xue’s grave, lost in thought, wondering if that man would appear again?
She could only ask Li Xue’s parents to keep an eye out. If he appeared again, they should call her.
“Xiaoyu.”
Tang Yu paused for a moment, then looked up to see the man who appeared and wore an expression of disbelief, “Yuli? What are you doing here?” Thinking of a certain possibility, her face fell immediately, “Are you following me?”
“This is my second visit here.”
Tang Yu was surprised, “The person who came to visit Sister Xue last time wasn’t you, was it?”
“I had no choice, to catch the murderer, I needed to understand everything thoroughly.” Ye Yuli walked up beside her, looking at her, “I wanted to try my luck again today. I didn’t expect to run into you.”
Tang Yu didn’t expect that Ye Yuli had been helping her all along, and she felt grateful, “Thank you. But have you found any trace of that man?”
“I’ll tell you as soon as I find him,” Ye Yuli said, gazing at her with a slightly intense focus.
Tang Yu felt uncomfortable under his gaze, “I need to go. You continue with your search!” With that, she turned and walked away.
“Are you that afraid of Ye Sihan?”
“Yes.” Tang Yu didn’t deny that she was avoiding any appearance of impropriety. “With my quadruplets in his hands, it’s like he has a stranglehold on my neck; I have no way out.”
“So you’re prepared to be tied down by the kids for life?” Ye Yuli stepped forward, grabbed her arm, his eyes cold and angry, “Can’t you consider your own wellbeing?”
Tang Yu angrily pulled away from his grasp, “The kids are my life; I can’t live without them! What am I compared to the children? You don’t understand this feeling.”
“I don’t understand, my request is simple, I just want you to be happy, not trapped in Ye Sihan’s cage. Think differently, what if the quadruplets knew they were able to grow up healthy at the expense of sacrificing their mother’s freedom, what would they think? Wouldn’t they hate themselves?”
“Don’t you dare think that way about them!”
“It’s you who’s avoiding the issue! Such a way of being together is inherently deformed!”
Ye Yuli’s words cut through her heart like a knife.
Yes, she was the product of Ye Sihan’s revenge, the quadruplets were an accident and also became the victims of revenge.
If Ye Sihan were to marry and have children in the future, that would be proper and legitimate.
The quadruplets are so smart, they might understand everything when they’re just a few years older.
How would they see her as a mother then?
This was the issue she had always been reluctant to confront.
Ye Yuli looked at the helplessness on Tang Yu’s face with great distress.
She used to be so lively and happy, but now her face was filled with restraint and pain, being prematurely aged by her experiences.
“If there’s too big a gap between your age and mental maturity, it will crush you,” Ye Yuli said, gazing at her with such gentle eyes.
Tang Yu’s eyes brimmed with tears as she looked at the lush green forest in the distance, trying hard to maintain her composure, “I… I won’t be crushed, with the kids around, nothing will happen to me. As for what might happen in the future, I don’t want to think about it for the time being. Yuli, you shouldn’t get involved with me either, let me investigate Sister Xue’s case…”
When she turned to look at Ye Yuli, she was startled.
Ye Yuli was standing behind her, his chest oozing blood, staining a large swath of his chest red.
“Yuli!” Tang Yu rushed forward, supporting him, and saw the man hiding behind the tree with a gun, who ran away after achieving his goal. “Yuli? Can you hold on?”
Ye Yuli was already struggling to support himself, his face deathly pale, “The car is at the bottom of the mountain, help me get there…”
“Okay, okay, okay.” Tang Yu was terrified.
The blood kept surging out as she supported Ye Yuli, dripping onto the ground, a shocking sight.
Tang Yu dared not look, and hurriedly led him down the mountain.
Fortunately, it wasn’t far.
With effort, she helped Ye Yuli into the passenger seat, then she took the driver’s seat, removed her outer jacket, and pressed it against his chest, “Press on this.”
Ye Yuli looked up at her with an adoring gaze, “Don’t worry, I won’t die.”
The cloth pressing on the wound quickly turned red, and Tang Yu did not dare to delay, immediately starting the car and leaving, “Do you know the route to the town?”
“…Turn right…” Ye Yuli said weakly from his seat.
After winding along the small road, they finally made it out and reached the main road.
Upon reaching the main road, Tang Yu accelerated, pressing the gas pedal as if she wanted to push it to the floor.
Her heart was in turmoil, but reality didn’t allow her to be disorganized.
“If I died, would you be sad?” Ye Yuli’s attention was fixed on Tang Yu.
“What nonsense are you talking? You won’t die.” Tang Yu kept her gaze on the road ahead.
“Why did the two of us end up like this?” Ye Yuli’s voice was filled with sadness. “I used to say I wanted to marry you.”
Tang Yu’s grip tightened on the steering wheel. In the past… she had said she wanted to marry Ye Yuli, to have children with him, to have their own home, and never to wander again.
All those past times were romantic and beautiful…
But one wrong decision, and her life had turned upside down.
She even fell into a deep abyss, unable to climb out.
But should she regret it?
She wasn’t even entitled to regret…
Arriving at the town hospital, they rushed into the emergency room.
Tang Yu waited outside, sitting in a chair, her hands covering her face, and only then did she notice the stench of blood and that her hands were stained with Ye Yuli’s blood.
Her hands trembled slightly, hoping Ye Yuli would be alright.
Even though they had broken up, Ye Yuli was her first love, whom she once loved.
He, like her, had made the wrong decision at the time, but that didn’t warrant death.
Who did this?
Who wanted Ye Yuli dead?
Just as her mind pondered whether it could be Ye Sihan—
“So heartbroken?”
When Tang Yu heard this voice, akin to that of the Devil, her body stiffened instantly, her heart sank into a frozen pond, chilling her to the bone.
