Chapter 298 -298: You Played Me, Can You Get Away Unscathed?
Ye Chuyi’s chin ached from his pinch as she looked into his eyes that were as deep as the starry sky and whispered, “I didn’t know how to face you, so I ran away. I know running away doesn’t solve anything, but I couldn’t think of any other way.”
“I know my deception wasn’t very clever, and it succeeded because the Ye Family helped me.”
“I am the daughter of a maid from the Wen Family, and my father is a murderer. He is the one who killed another maid of the Wen Family, Tian Qiugui, and he had killed someone else before that.”
“Marrying you was a deal I made with the Ye Family; I married into the Sheng Family in the place of the Ye daughter who had run away from her wedding so that the Ye Family would get my father out of prison.”
“I didn’t dare to tell you these things, and I didn’t dare to be a true husband and wife to you because I knew I was using you, deceiving you. One day, you would find out the truth, and if we had become true husband and wife, you would hate me even more.”
“Fortunately, what shouldn’t have happened didn’t happen. President Sheng, everything can still be corrected. You can re-marry the real Ye daughter, Ye Shuangyin.”
Sheng Tingyuan’s eyes grew even redder, his anger uncontrollable, “You want me to marry Ye Shuangyin?! Is that how you want to push me towards her?”
“Isn’t it the Ye Family’s daughter you’ve always wanted? Otherwise, why would you have insisted on marrying me in the first place? Ye Shuangyin now regrets running away from the wedding. She’s very willing to marry into the family, very willing to become your wife.”
Sheng Tingyuan let go of her, took a step back, and his expression turned cold and indifferent, “How generous of you, to play me for a fool, use me up, and then turn around to push me towards another woman. Alright, you’re really something, very capable indeed!”
“But do you think you can just play me and get off scot-free? Ye Chuyi, you’re in over your head! Do you think that because nothing happened between us, I’ll just let you go? Do you really think I have no temper, that I’m some kind of philanthropist?”
“And who I marry or don’t marry is not up to you to arrange! You’d better go home honestly tonight like before, otherwise, I wouldn’t mind sending the Dome into bankruptcy and closure!”
Ye Chuyi wanted to apologize again, but Sheng Tingyuan had already turned and was walking toward the door.
Before he left, he added coldly, “And the Jungle; you have a good relationship with Cong Ningyuan, don’t you? Then let him and Chuyi keep you company in the afterlife!”
Ye Chuyi was startled, “You can’t touch the Jungle!”
“Then you go back tonight! If you sleep in this rundown hospital again, I’ll have it torn down tomorrow!”
After saying that, Sheng Tingyuan opened the door and walked out.
Ye Chuyi felt somewhat dejected; she had thought that by not mentioning her relationship with the Jungle, Sheng Tingyuan wouldn’t touch it. She hadn’t expected him to be so ruthless, unwilling to spare even Cong Ningyuan, who was somewhat close to her.
She stood by the window slowly, waited for a moment, and saw him leave the office building, heading towards the parking lot with his assistant.
This time, he didn’t look up.
Ye Chuyi felt an indescribable discomfort in her heart; everything was over. Things were as she expected: he was angry, but he was also calm.
The angriest he had gotten was just a slight pinch on her chin.
She had anticipated his reaction, what his anger would be like once he found out her true identity.

But no matter how much she imagined it, when he was really angry, she still felt intimidated.
The door opened, and the assistant came in, “Doctor Anxin, it’s time. The patient is ready; you should head to the operating room now.”
Ye Chuyi suppressed all her negative emotions, slapped her face to wake herself up a bit, “Okay, I’ll be right there.”
The busy and complex surgery temporarily pulled her out of her negative emotions. Three hours later, after the surgery was done, she returned to her office and thought of Sheng Tingyuan again.
She was lost in thought for quite a while until the phone rang, bringing her back to reality.
It was Ye Ziran, “Ye Chuyi, why haven’t you come home yet? You didn’t forget, did you?”
“I haven’t forgotten; I just finished a surgery. I’m on my way now.”
After hanging up, she picked up her bag and left the office.
As soon as she stepped out of the office building, raindrops began to fall.
Ye Chuyi paused, looking up at the curtain of rain.
It was raining again.
Was it trying to tell her that coming clean with Sheng Tingyuan and parting ways with him was a good thing?
Or was it saying that going to the Ye Family was a good thing?
