Chapter 625 - Trapped City (1)
“Don’t go! Yifeng! Yifeng! Please don’t go…”
No matter how Xi Xinyi yelled, nothing stopped Han Yifeng and he soon disappeared amidst the foggy rain.
“Don’t go, Yifeng! Don’t go! I can’t lose you, Han Yifeng! Please!” She started shrieking, and her terrifying pleas pierced through the silence. Secretary Wang felt sorry for Xi Xinyi when he saw her fall on the staircase.
Karma had its way of working. In the past, Han Yifeng begged her to quit the entertainment industry and focus on being his wife. Had Xi Xinyi agreed to that back then, things might have turned out differently today. At least, they would still be a proper couple together.
However, who could have predicted things?
Xi Xinyi prioritized her career more than her relationship back then. She thought Han Yifeng was already in her possession. Unfortunately, she had obtained him far too easily and had no idea how to cherish him.
Not knowing what else to say, Secretary Wang ran under the rain with the gifts in his hands.
Xi Xinyi was crying uncontrollably. The rain got through the door with the wind. In just a short while, she had gotten drenched. She had no idea how long she cried for. She looked up when she heard the sound of footsteps before her. Then, she noticed Huang Ziyao was there watching her with a complicated expression which looked like pity or something else entirely.
Xi Xinyi could not stop sobbing. She looked at Huang Ziyao for a while before rushing over and hugging her.
“Mother, I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. Why can’t he give me another chance? I just need one more chance, just one more…”
Huang Ziyao just stood there, unsure about what to say.
Xi Xinyi still had feelings for her son, but Yifeng had already gone past their honeymoon phase. Even as his mother, she felt a little shocked to see her son acting so cruelly.
In the end, Xi Xinyi deserved it.
After a while, Huang Ziyao spoke up and helped Xi Xinyi up, “Why are you doing this? You know Yifeng well. You used up all his feelings. Alright, now it’s time to go back. You still have a son to tend to. Let Yifeng calm down.”
“I’m sorry, Mother. I’ll be sure to turn over a new leaf. Please convince Yifeng for me. Ask him to forgive me, please, Mother.” Xi Xinyi was desperate.
Huang Ziyao sighed. “He’s not even willing to see me now. His relationship with everyone in the family now is very strained, including his father and grandfather, so what do you want me to say? I don’t wish for anything else. You’ve married into the Han family, and I’ve always thought of you as my daughter-in-law, a good daughter. I just hope that you’ll behave yourself and not look for any more trouble. Our Han family can’t deal with any more issues now. Don’t blame me if you don’t listen to my advice.”
“Mother…” Xi Xinyi almost passed out as her strength was drained from the long period of crying.
Huang Ziyao quickly summoned some servants to help carry her upstairs.
It was late at night when a car was speeding through the highway in the cold rain. The car traveled so fast that it scared Secretary Wang even though he was in another car chasing after him!
He put his head outside and yelled at Han Yifeng, “CEO Han! CEO Han! It’s dangerous! Don’t drive so fast! CEO Han!”
Secretary Wang was worried sick. At the same time, he urged the chauffeur beside him to speed up.
Han Yifeng could not hear Secretary Wang at all. He just felt the pressure suffocating him, and he needed a space to vent.
There was no one at all on the slippery road while one or two cars passed by him. Han Yifeng sped up even faster as the cold rain and wind howled into his car from the opened window. His hair became messy and his face was wet while the refraction of light from the rain droplets blurred his vision. He floored the brake when he saw a bridge in front.
He jumped out of the car before it fully stopped. Then, he walked towards the bridge and roared at the river down below like a wild beast!
It was the first time Secretary Wang saw him go so out of control. His suppressed emotions flooded out altogether. It was enough to drown a person.
“Secretary Wang…”
The chauffeur looked at Han Yifeng hesitantly. He wanted to close in, but Secretary Wang stopped him.
“Don’t go. Let him vent. It’s been really tough for CEO Han.” Secretary Wang sighed as the chauffeur just stood right there.
After some time, Han Yifeng stopped yelling. Instead, he gripped the railing tightly and looked at the river. His strength was drained as his eyes looked empty. Soaking wet, the chilliness drove right into his bones. He had never felt this sober. The pain and sorrow in his heart were exceptionally clear to him at that moment.
He had abandoned Xiaye who was genuinely in love with him. He had given in to temptation and accepted Xi Xinyi’s love, neglecting Xiaye and hurting her. On the contrary, he had given his best to love and care for Xi Xinyi, but when the truth was revealed, all his actions became a ridiculous joke.
Fate was against him!
He hated Xi Xinyi as much as he loved her before. Han Yifeng never knew that their relationship was this cheap.
How could he escape from this deep swamp?
He tried to convince himself to forget everything and love Xi Xinyi again, but every time he thought about it, her pathetic self surfaced in his mind. In the end, the images of her all turned into Xi Xiaye’s elegant, beautiful face…
