Chapter 180 If You Don’t Come Back, We’ll Break Up
He couldn't guess why Lin Anyi came, and thought that since he and Xu Qingran had come to this point, what did he have to be afraid of?
No matter what happens to her, her son will remember me forever.
He opened the door, and the moment his eyes met, he could sense Lin Anyi's ill intentions, and the situation was even more tense than the last time they met.
"Mr. Lin? What can I do for you?" Ye Yan asked in surprise. She had no reason to be here.
"Where is Xu Qingran? Tell him to get out."
Lin Anyi didn't say much and decisively stated her purpose. Not barging in directly was her last bit of dignity as an upper-class person.
Ye Yan didn't understand, wondering what she meant. Did Xu Qingran leave without saying goodbye again?
"How would I know where your son is? Mr. Lin must have come to the wrong place."
"Stop pretending to be nice. I'm not telling you what idiotic things he did for you! Go in and find him!"
At her command, two bodyguards pushed Ye Yan aside and entered his house. He didn't understand what was going on and followed Lin Anyi in anger.
"I said he's not here with me. This is my home. Please respect me."
He didn't know what Xu Qingran had done to make Lin Anyi bring people to his house to look for someone.
He only knew that Lin Anyi regarded him as a troublemaker who tempted her son to go against his family. She clearly refused to acknowledge him but still acted like a "mother-in-law" and taught him a lesson.
Why? He was already upset enough that he couldn't get Xu Qingran's explanation, and now he had to endure Lin Anyi's judgment, as if his existence was a disgrace to the Xu family.
There was no trace of Xu Qingran in his house. The easiest way to confirm it was that Xu Qingran's shoes were not seen in the shoe cabinet at the entrance.
Ye Yan's shoe size was one and a half sizes smaller than his. After checking, the bodyguard searched every room and ignored Ye Yan's disgusted look.
Lin Anyi noticed the large flower basket in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. After staring at it for a while, she turned around and looked at Ye Yan's aggrieved and angry eyes and asked again.
"Tell me where did Xu Qingran go? Why didn't you persuade him before he did that?"
"I don't know where he is, and I don't know what he did. He's not a child, so how can he not have his own personal freedom?"
Ye Yan never thought that one day he would speak for Xu Qingran in front of Lin Anyi, especially after their cold war.
Perhaps feeling Lin Anyi's suffocating desire to control Xu Qingran, Ye Yan temporarily put aside the unrepaired gap between them and couldn't help but speak out for Xu Qingran.
The four words "personal freedom" touched Lin Anyi's reverse scale. She felt that Xu Qingran was her son, and it was natural for parents to arrange their children's life. Why should Ye Yan, an outsider, point fingers at her?
Not getting the answer she wanted and being questioned in a bad tone by her son's boyfriend, Lin Anyi walked towards Ye Yan in anger and slapped him in the face without warning.
Ye Yan was stunned. Her face turned to the side under the force of the impact. The burning pain instantly spread from her face to her whole body.
He used to be the one who slapped others, but now he is finally being slapped back.
"Why would you care if he revealed his involvement with the mafia?! Do you know that if something like this happens, he's likely to be removed from his position by the board of directors? We only have one heir in the Xu family. If he loses his right to inherit, do you want our ATIM Group to fall into the hands of outsiders?!"
"What gang?" Ye Yan got up and opened the door as soon as she opened her eyes, without even having time to check her phone.
He seemed to suddenly understand something. Xu Qingran had done something that was ruining her future without telling him. It sounded very serious.
Could it be that he asked gangsters to retrieve those photos for me, and the news that he took nude photos of those people got out?
"You don't know? I just got someone to spread the news that he was dating a girl, and today he gave me a big gift in return. If you know where he is, you'd better tell me now. I only have one son, and I can't let him ruin himself and the company because of you."
"I haven't reconciled with him yet. I have no idea what he's doing..."
"That's better. Let's go." Lin Anyi was anxious to find someone. Since she was not here, there was no need to waste time.
Lin Anyi left. Ye Yan ignored the pain on her face and quickly walked back to her room to get her phone to check the news.
When he saw the overwhelming number of posts online with titles like Xu Qingran and Tiandao Society, as well as the video of Xu Rong responding to reporters in front of the company's gate, he realized how many things had happened that night.
It’s not that Xu Qingran didn’t want to explain to him, but he was secretly planning a big move that would not even let himself go.
"Is he crazy?" Ye Yan was shocked. After hesitating for a moment, she immediately called Xu Qingran.
Ye Yan was able to dial a number that others couldn't get through.
"Good morning, Yan. Have you had breakfast?"
"Did you reveal the matter between you and the Tiandao Society yourself?"
"Yeah, didn't you say you wanted my parents to see that you're more important to me than the company? Do I have enough to prove it?"
"Are you crazy? Where are you? Come out here and make it clear that you have nothing to do with the gang."
Ye Yan was really anxious. He loved Xu Qingran and definitely couldn't bear to see him being criticized by netizens.
He doesn't care about the life or death of ATIM Group. He just wants Xu Qingran to be fine and not become the target of public criticism.
Xu Qingran was drinking coffee in the presidential suite of the seaside hotel at this moment. When he heard Ye Yan cared about him so much, his mouth was about to burst with smiles.
"You care about me? I'm very happy. When you are willing to forgive me, I will make things clear. If you don't forgive me, let it stay like this. I will let you see my sincerity in apologizing."
"You're simply... hopeless. Do as you please."
Ye Yan hung up the phone in frustration, turned around and collapsed on the bed, her heart in turmoil.
He still didn't tell Xu Qingran that Lin Anyi hit him, for he was afraid that the guy would get excited and add fuel to the fire.
So should I forgive him, Ye Yan asked herself.
Such sacrifice is much more serious than streaking.
ATIM Group's shares are already moving, and it's impossible for them to remain stable with the heirs exposed in a gang-related scandal.
While he was struggling, another message came from Xu Qingran.
Xu Qingran: Not only for you, but also for myself, I have thought it through. From the beginning to the end, I only want you, not the Xu family's property.
Satisfied, Ye Yan's mixed mood instantly rekindled the moment she saw Xu Qingran's confession.
"Heh~ This is a suicide-like apology. Xu Qingran is really something. You have me in your hands..."
I was very happy, but I couldn't help but cry.
He touched his hot and painful face and sobbed softly while hugging the quilt. He wanted to throw himself into Xu Qingran's arms and bite him to death, letting the taste of his tears permeate his soul, and never dare to hurt his heart again.
He waited for two hours, but still didn't get Xu Qingran's clarification.
The online criticism became louder and louder, and the relevant departments even began a comprehensive review of the ATIM Group. Lin Anyi was so angry that she could only leave him messages through various possible channels to contact him.
They said that as long as you come forward to clarify, we will no longer be involved in your affairs with Ye Yan.
Some netizens who wanted to know whether Ye Yan was really "forced into love by the domineering president" also began to leave messages in his comment section. In a short period of time, his followers actually increased by 10 million.
[Did Xu Qingran really invest in the studio just to control you?]
[I feel so sorry for you, brother. I thought you two were a sweet couple, but I didn’t expect it was forced. Sob~]
[Ye Zi, be brave and come forward to expose Xu Qingran's evil deeds. We will always support you!]
Ye Yan has always had a very positive outlook on life. He immediately terminated the contract upon discovering Party A's improper conduct! He truly is the most courageous man in the entertainment industry.
[Xu Qingran is tall, handsome, and rich. I don’t know why you feel sorry for Ye Yan.]
[The two of them rolling around together looks so pretty, they must be in love with each other, so sad]
[Oh my God, what has Ye Yan been through? Pei Sujun, please protect him! ]
Ye Yan read all the comments in the front row, and her heart skipped a beat when she saw the three words Pei Sujun.
Xu Qingran's startup keyword has been triggered. I wonder if he will respond against the trend this time.
"That's about it, Xu Qingran. If you don't clarify things, you'll really have to rely on me to support you in the future."
After being anxious for a long time, he seemed to have made a decision, took out Qiao Lin's phone number and called him.
"Assistant Qiao, tell Xu Qingran to get back here immediately, or we'll break up."
