Qiao Yan leaned against the wall behind him, not having any strength left in his body. He couldn't accept such a cruel fact for a moment. He was in a meeting at that time, but he had clearly sent her a text message to cancel the date in the evening, so why did she still go up the mountain? He called her after the meeting, but her phone was turned off at that time. He arrogantly thought that she was angry and had a quarrel with him.
"Why didn't you tell me?" His voice was very hoarse and his heart was full of anxiety.
Lin Pei sneered, "What do you mean? Qiao Yan, I was raped? She left you so suddenly, have you ever investigated the reason? She said she didn't love you anymore and you believed her. Your parents said she took money from your family and you despised her for being a vain woman. Tell me, what do you love about her? Do you know anything about her? You let her go just like that. You are even more cruel than her. You got married earlier than us. You selfishly dragged another girl to take the blame for you. You are a scumbag."
Qiao Yan was scolded so hard that he couldn't say a word. He admitted that what Lin Pei said was not wrong, to the point that he even doubted himself whether he had ever really loved the woman in front of him. He really let go so easily. Facing the sudden setback, he didn't even make any effort, but he fell out with his family. He pushed all the responsibilities onto others and cleared himself of all responsibility.
He is actually the most irresponsible person from the beginning to the end.
The cell phone kept ringing, and he knew it was Ye Mi's call as soon as he heard it, but at this moment he was so scared that he didn't dare to answer it. He didn't know how to face it, how to explain to her, should he pretend that nothing had happened? Then how should he deal with himself in front of this woman who had been deeply hurt by him in the past, how could he be happy in front of her. Could he hurt Ye Zi, the woman who was so kind and gave him everything, now made him love her to the bone, and he could no longer remove her from his life. And his parents and family, what did they do wrong? He was the only one who made a mistake. He suddenly felt the embarrassment of having nowhere to go in the world. It seemed that he no longer had the face to face this world and all the people who had given him love and tolerance.
Ye Mi was a little anxious. She looked at the time and the plane should have landed long ago. "Will it be delayed? The summary meeting shouldn't last so long."
Jiang Mingming really treats his daughter like a treasure now. Seeing her frowning face makes him feel distressed. "Qingwen, go to the company and ask what's going on."
He Qingwen was sitting on the sofa reading Business Weekly. He put it down impatiently and glared at Ye Mi, "Is he a child? He thinks he's so great just because his last name is Qiao. Really, I'm almost like a waiter for you two. I'm a company executive, and he's just a pilot."
"He's your brother-in-law!"
Now that his mother has spoken, he has to behave himself no matter how wronged he feels. Ye Mi pursed his lips and smiled. It feels good to bully others. No wonder powerful people like to bully others.
He Qingwen called the company's dispatch department to check, and they said the plane arrived on time. The crew members also said Qiao Yan left in a hurry after the meeting. He Qingwen immediately contacted the office contact department, and soon there was news. He Qingwen's face became very ugly as he listened. He put down the phone and looked back at Ye Mi, not knowing how to start. "Sister, he can't come for a while. He Xiaoning took a ride with him, and there was a small accident on the way. He Xiaoning's child is gone."
Ye Mi was caught off guard and the phone in her hand fell to the ground. She looked at He Qingwen, "Is Qiao Yan okay?"
He Qingwen frowned with a resentful look. He was angry at Ye Mi for not fighting back and hated her misfortune. "Did you hear the point? Qiao Yan had an accident on the road while driving He Xiaoning. Now he is in the hospital with another woman. Do you have a brain?"
It’s not that Ye Mi didn’t hear the key point, she just didn’t want to think too much about it. She blinked hard and said, “I want to go back tonight.” She felt vaguely uneasy, but the more uneasy she felt, the more she didn’t want to stay with her parents. Some things were unavoidable, so she could only muster up the courage to face them.
He Qingwen was a little worried, so he sent her downstairs and insisted on going upstairs with her, but Ye Mi still refused. There was no need to involve her family in their problems. Ye Mi was very conflicted, but she was determined to speak her mind.
She lay lazily on the sofa, not wanting to move or eat, afraid that Qiao Yan would come back but also looking forward to his return. She herself did not understand what was going on. There was no light in the room, her mind was fuzzy but she could not fall asleep. The physical fatigue and the excitement of her brain made her feel very tormented.
After an unknown amount of time, the door opened. Ye Mi stood up suddenly, feeling a little dizzy. She stumbled and finally stabilized. She turned on the light and saw Qiao Yan, who looked exhausted. There was a Band-Aid on his forehead, and he obviously had not suffered any serious injuries. Qiao Yan was startled when he saw Ye Mi, and hurriedly lowered his head, not knowing how to face her. Ye Mi saw his flustered eyes and was a little at a loss for a moment. She walked up to him and held his face, "Are you injured? Have you had a check-up? If you feel any pain or discomfort, don't bear it."
Qiao Yan's heart was suffering from the double torment of ice and fire. He hugged the person in front of him tightly, "Ye Mi, I'm sorry!" His voice was a little choked, which made Ye Mi's heart rise all of a sudden. The hand holding him was tightly grasping his back.
"Am I a bastard? I was wronged by Xiaoning and hurt her." Qiao Yan really felt that he couldn't bear such a secret. If he couldn't find someone to talk to, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get through the night. But who could he find? Apart from Ye Mi, he didn't know who else could give him real comfort. It's not that he wasn't afraid, but he could only be relieved if she knew the truth. Ye Mi's muscles were all stiff. He knew it!
At this moment, she was completely lost. Her hands seemed to have lost their strength and just fell down beside him. Tears welled up in her eyes in an instant. "It was just an accident, not your fault. I'm sorry..." I know, but I selfishly didn't tell you, because I didn't have the confidence that you would love me to death, nor did I have the courage to accept the separation. All the words were stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them. She couldn't pretend anymore and couldn't bear to hide it anymore. When he told her the truth first, she knew she was wrong.
Qiao Yan paused, then pushed her away violently, his brows knitted tightly together, "Did you know that?" His face became grim, and there was some shock and anger in his voice.
Ye Mi shuddered all over. She looked at him innocently, feeling aggrieved and anxious.
"You don't know, right? Ye Mi, how could you know and not tell me? You know this reason has tormented me for a long time. You wouldn't hide it from me if you knew it. Tell me, you don't know, you know nothing. Tell me, go ahead!" He almost roared. Ye Mi was frightened. She had never seen such a terrifying Qiao Yan. She stood there in a daze, her mind blank.
"Ye Zi, we said that people who love each other should not hide anything. Tell me, you really don't know."
Ye Mi's tears kept flowing, and no matter how hard she wiped them, she couldn't hold them back, "I'm sorry, Qiao Yan, I'm really sorry..."
Qiao Yan leaned weakly against the wall, "Ye Mi, how could you do this? Since you could hide it from me, why couldn't you lie to me? Do you know how painful and unbearable I was when I heard Lin Pei tell me those things in front of He Xiaoning's bed? How could you push me into that situation? How could you be so selfish? Do you hide it from me just because you love me? Do you know how painful it is for such a delicate woman to endure all this? The child she aborted that year could have been mine..." Qiao Yan was a little incoherent. He couldn't believe that such a simple, kind and upright person could hide such a shocking secret so deeply. He suddenly seemed to not recognize the person in front of him. Was this his beloved Ye Zi
"Ye Mi, is there anything else you are hiding from me? How many things have you hidden from me?"
出来的难札，你就一直在的 English: Ye Mi was shaking violently. All her anger was blocked in her chest, and the grievances that had been wrapped up for a long time poured out at once. She tilted her head and glared at Qiao Yan, who was almost losing his mind. She could not suppress her anger at all. She did not want to compromise anymore. All her tolerance seemed to be nothing in his eyes. She blurted out her blame, "The fault is all mine, Qiao Yan, you are always right. It was me who pushed you into that situation. It was me who made you suffer and unbearable. It was me who caused her to be raped and she was pregnant. Everything is caused by me, okay? Qiao Yan, what do you want? You can't forget the old love, right? Then go back. Go back now. She is a free person now, and she doesn't have a child. I won't pester you. You have no obstacles now. You are so selfless. Go stay with her. Use all your longing and lingering feelings to make up for your guilt. Go and give her happiness. She is so fragile and so beautiful. Then what are you still standing here for? Go and stay with her..." Her face turned red and she could no longer speak.
"Ye Mi!" Qiao Yan couldn't believe his ears. She was pushing him out like this. "How can you be such a cruel, heartless woman?" Can't you feel my love at all? I've been with you and loved you, and you just pushed me out like this. He couldn't say these words. His dignity under the rage made it impossible for him to bow to love. He gritted his teeth and looked at the person in front of him. A flash of lightning flashed outside, and the rumbling thunder rolled in, making people's ears buzz. Ye Mi raised her head stubbornly. At that moment, she couldn't even shed a tear.
She smiled awkwardly, "Don't you want to know what else I've been hiding from you? Then I'll tell you that I've been secretly throwing away the birth control pills without telling you. I've also been snooping at your computer and I didn't want to tell you. I'm such a selfish and calculating person. I'll do anything to keep you by my side. Do you see clearly? If you see clearly, just leave..." She choked in her throat and couldn't make a sound.
Qiao Yan felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his heart ached. Everything she said made him feel confused, and there was only one sentence in his mind, "Go away!" She drove him away. "Ye Mi, you really make me feel unreasonable." He turned around, and a tear fell from the corner of his eye. He didn't know where else he could go, whether there was any place that could take him in, and his confused and hurt heart.
Ye Mi's body trembled as the door closed. He was really gone. She wanted to be stronger, but her tears still flowed.
It was raining heavily outside and Qiao Yan didn't have a car. He didn't know how long he walked before he looked up and saw his own home. He felt a pang of sadness in his heart, but he still returned home in the end.
Qiao's father and mother came out in their pajamas and saw their son standing in front of them, soaked like a drowned rat, with a look of frustration on their faces. Qiao Zhenting wanted to laugh at him, but after all, he was his own son, so he couldn't say it.
When Qiao's mother saw her son, she felt somewhat guilty. She quickly asked the servants to run the bath water and covered his head with a towel. "What happened to you? Who made my son like this?"
Qiao Yan's nose felt sore, and he turned around and hugged his mother, "Mom, I'm sorry, it was my fault."
After he did this, his family members became worried. "I heard that Ye Mi is the daughter of the He family. Is it true?" Qiao's mother asked tentatively. She also heard about it. Since the He family did not release any news to the public, she was not sure. But at this time, she really hoped that it was true. "Could it be that she has become rich and is bullying you? Is she hooking up with someone else again?"
Qiao Yan let go of her hand, "Mom, can you stop saying bad things about Ye Mi?" He took the towel, "Can I go back to my room and rest? I'm really tired. Don't ask me questions, don't talk to me. I was wrong before. Mom and Dad, I'm home. I hope you can forgive me, and I hope you can accept us." He went upstairs without waiting for his parents' response. He felt that his steps were as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and he couldn't open his eyes.
After going upstairs, he simply took a shower and fell on the bed without even drying his hair. In the morning, the family had finished breakfast, but Qiao Yan still hadn't come down. Qiao Yun was a little worried, so he went upstairs and knocked on the door, but there was no movement inside. He immediately opened the door and went in, and saw that he was still lying on the bed, breathing a little quickly, with red cheeks. He gently pushed twice, "Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan?"
Qiao Yan opened his eyes with difficulty. He felt that his whole body was stiff and he couldn't move. He didn't know where the pain was. "I feel uncomfortable. Let me lie down for a while."
Qiao Yun noticed something was wrong and reached out to test his forehead. It felt a little hot. "Rest. I'll call a doctor for you right away."
Ye Mi sat in the living room in a daze all night. Except for the call from her mother, there was no sound from her cell phone. She sat there in a daze for the whole morning. She felt heavy and tired, but her head ached badly and she couldn't fall asleep. She climbed upstairs and took out the laptop again and put it on Qiao Yan's desk. She opened it and read all the contents in it silently. Suddenly, she felt as if she had really intruded into someone else's feelings. She didn't know where she went wrong. Was it just because he reached out to her when she was most helpless, or because the extraordinary beauty of his melancholy profile in the sunset disturbed her peaceful heart
No one's heart is made of reinforced concrete, and no one's heart cannot be hurt. Some scenes make your heart numb, and some voices make your heart die. Ye Mi called He Qingwen and asked him to pick her up. She went back to the bedroom and found that there was nothing to pack. Everything was marked by Qiao Yan. In the end, she just took the key to the door from her keychain and put it on the computer keyboard. She stood at the door, looked around the house, and then slowly closed the door, wanting to isolate herself from everything.
The rain was heavy and stopped at noon. The evening sun was not so glaring, but it still evaporated the water vapor on the ground. The humid air and a damp heart made her feel very sticky. She looked up, looking at the blood-red setting sun, but her eyes were spinning.
