Chapter 101 Let's wait and see

Upon hearing this, Lin's mother's voice also became somewhat tearful.

Now, she was truly terrified.

But think about it, the father-in-law and husband can't really just abandon their daughter.

She looked tremblingly at the old man in the main seat, as if grasping at the last straw: "Dad, what do we do now? We must protect Shuangyu! She's the Lin family's only daughter. If something happens to her, how will I live..."

As she spoke, Lin's mother burst into tears.

Lin Cheng found the mosquito-like crying annoying and snapped coldly, "Shut up! What's the use of crying all the time?"

Old Master Lin remained silent throughout.

After a long while, he slowly spoke, his voice filled with a weary sense of powerlessness: "What else can I do? Now, I have no choice but to take this wretched child and personally apologize to the Jiang family."

"Grandpa!" Lin Shuangyu suddenly raised her head, tears still on her face, her eyes filled with fear and resistance.

She had always known that Jiang Wang had a powerful background, but she never imagined that simply breaking a bunch of Si Yuan's junk would require the Lin family patriarch to personally apologize.

This is not only a disgrace to her, but also a disgrace to the entire Lin family!

I never imagined that one day I would have to bow down to Si Yuan.

That bitch will definitely use every means to get revenge on her and humiliate her...

Lin Shuangyu opened his mouth, wanting to say something more, but when he met the old man's cold gaze, he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

My heart sank, leaving only endless panic.

The old man stopped looking at her and said to Lin's father in a deep voice, "Prepare the car, we're going now. Remember, once we get there, no matter what the Jiang family says or does, you are not allowed to contradict them."

Mr. Lin nodded with a grim expression, not daring to voice any objection, and quickly turned to make the arrangements.

Seeing her daughter's distraught state, Lin's mother felt both heartache and helplessness, but she could only get up with her.

Old Master Lin narrowed his eyes, a hint of sarcasm in his expression.

"Unexpectedly, Song Yan's younger sister is quite capable, causing Jiang Wang to go to such lengths for her."

Lin Shuangyu also gritted his teeth.

Yes, these two people have only known each other for a little over half a year, how could they be so close?

Si Yuan had been abroad for the past few years, and the only connection between the two of them was during their senior year of high school.

Or... did the two of them know each other since high school?

Does Song Yan know this?

Lin Shuangyu wasn't sure, but once the doubt arose, he was determined to get an answer.

If the two had been hanging out together since high school, Song Yan would definitely have thought Si Yuan was filthy.

At that time, will he still think that his good sister is pure and innocent and cannot be defiled?

——

As Song Yan sped back to the hospital, Lin Shuangyu's words and the recording kept echoing in his mind, leaving him extremely uneasy.

He was worried that Lin Shuangyu would release the recording regardless of the consequences.

If that's the case, then things have truly reached a point of no return.

She would be thrust into the spotlight, Si Yuan would have to leave the Song family, and the Song Group's shares would also be affected...

Most importantly, what will Si Yuan think of himself?

The heir to the Song Group has fallen in love with his own younger sister, which is even more outrageous than Si Yuan's situation at eighteen.

Song Yan rushed upstairs, wanting to keep Si Yuan there first and not let her have the chance to hear those recordings.

But when he hurriedly pushed open the ward door, he saw an empty hospital bed.

The half-full glass of water that I poured for Si Yuan before I left was still on the bedside table, untouched.

Where are they?

Song Yan's heart tightened, and he quickly walked to the door.

He rushed over, grabbed the bodyguard by the collar, his eyes bloodshot, his voice filled with barely suppressed rage: "Where is he? Where did he go? How were you watching him?!"

The bodyguard, breathless from being gripped, his face contorted with panic, hurriedly explained, "Mr. Song, it's...it's Mr. Jiang from Beijing. He came with a lot of people right after you left last night and took Miss away without a word. We've been trying to call you, but your phone has been switched off..."

The phone was turned off... Lin Shuangyu turned it off for him!

"Jiang Wang!"

Song Yan suddenly released his grip, and the bodyguard staggered back a few steps.

"I knew it! I knew it was him! How dare he bother Xiaoyuan!"

He seemed not to be fully awake, pacing anxiously and erratically in the hallway.

His mind was filled with thoughts of what Jiang Wang was trying to do.

Given Jiang Wang's status, it would be impossible for him to marry the adopted daughter of the Song family.

So it's definitely just for fun.

If Si Yuan is fooled and played by him before being dumped, that silly girl definitely won't be able to handle it.

It's all my fault.

I blame myself; I shouldn't have let Si Yuan feel so unloved.

Jiang Wang easily coaxed her into going with him.

Song Yan hated Si Yuan for being so disappointing, but he also hated himself for not keeping a close eye on Si Yuan.

Before he could react, Assistant Qi suddenly called.

Song Yan answered the call impatiently, urging him to speak quickly.

"Mr. Song, the Lin family has been exposed for construction fraud, and it's already making headlines in the economic news. The Song family also participated in the investment of that project."

Song Yan stopped in his tracks.

Did the Lin family get their comeuppance so quickly?

He didn't even need to lift a finger.

Song Yan's voice was devoid of any warmth: "Find a way to clear the Song family of any wrongdoing."

He paused for a moment, then added, "Keep a close eye on my mother. Make sure she doesn't soften her heart and do anything to help the Lin family."

"yes."

Song Yan turned off his phone and sat down listlessly on a chair in the hallway.

Why did things get so out of control?

I've worried about Si Yuan before, but I've never been this panicked.

Is it because... you feel betrayed by Si Yuan?

Even if it wasn't Jiang Wang, what about the other men?

Song Yan thought about it carefully and realized that no other man would do.

He couldn't accept her having anyone else around her.

Song Yan's eyes darkened, as if he had thought of something.

If only I weren't his brother...

Perhaps I could stand openly beside her.

However, even if Si Yuan and the Song family truly sever ties, they will still be adopted siblings and will not be accepted by the family.

How about we go somewhere else?

Why not move to Tiancheng, Xicheng, or even abroad... to a place where nobody knows them?

Song Yan's chaotic mind gradually calmed down.

For over a decade, he hesitated and feared, but the result was that he drifted further and further away from Si Yuan, going in opposite directions.

Then why be afraid and why endure?

As Song Yan slowly pondered, all the unknown emotions became clearer and clearer.

Suddenly, he was no longer afraid.

Thinking of Si Yuan, she used to only have eyes for herself.

For a moment, a sense of blasphemous fear and nervous throbbing swirled wildly in Song Yan's heart, making him, for the first time, want nothing more than that person.

He had never wanted anyone like that before.

——

Jiang Wang had just hung up the phone when he turned to look at Si Yuan, who was sitting on the sofa.

She was forced to eat something by Jiang Wang just now, and she seems to be in better spirits than when she was in the hospital.

Jiang Wang sat down next to her and asked, "The Lin family patriarch wants to bring Lin Shuangyu to see you in person. Do you want to see them?"

Si Yuan raised her head, her eyes calm and unwavering, and said without the slightest hesitation, "I don't want to."

She loathed Lin Shuangyu and didn't even want to see their faces or hear anything about them anymore.

“But…” Si Yuan continued, “I want to see them return my parents’ things to me, and I want Lin Shuangyu to apologize to me. Those things belong to me, and she owes me something that she must return.”

Jiang Wang liked Si Yuan's ruthless side.

"Okay, I'll give you whatever you want."

"Si Yuan, I'll wait and see with you."
