Mr.CEO’s Ex-wife Escapes Again
Chapter 204 - 204 204 Tying Her to His Side

Chapter 204: Chapter 204: Tying Her to His Side Chapter 204: Chapter 204: Tying Her to His Side “Are you talking about the girl who was in your hospital room yesterday?”

Yin Hehe still couldn’t help but blurt that out.

By the time she realized, it was already too late to take it back, and under the embarrassment, she could only awkwardly look outside again.

The man was gazing at the rearview mirror, with his thin lips already curved into an attractive smile.

“Yes, her name is Jian Rou, she’s the only daughter of Jian Zhongzhou. When I was studying in the capital, I lived at my grandmother’s place, and Jian Rou often came over too. We grew up together.”

“…”

Even childhood sweethearts, huh.

Yin Hehe looked at the scenery outside, her gaze growing even more faint.

“However, don’t get the wrong idea, we’re not childhood sweethearts, our relationship is more like siblings. That’s why when the marriage was proposed, I didn’t agree, and afterward, our families drifted apart.”

“…”

The atmosphere in the car became awkward for a moment.

Because Yin Hehe felt like this man was probing into her thoughts, making her scared to speak again for a while.

But it wasn’t really that disgusting to her.

Two hours later, they finally arrived in Provincial City.

“President, you’re finally back. Jian Zhongzhou heard you still want to sue and is extremely furious. He’s now spewing threats back in the capital. The old master and old lady have been apologizing to him continually.”

Upon arriving at the hotel, Xu Guannan hurried over with a very thorny issue to report.

Under these circumstances, Jian Zhongzhou would definitely be furious with embarrassment.

Worried, Yin Hehe looked towards the man beside her.

But she found that his expression was calm.

“You go upstairs first; you don’t need to worry about this. Right now, your only task is to prepare for the trial.”

“…Alright.”

Yin Hehe eventually nodded.

In the end, she asked the hotel staff to help her upstairs, returning to the room she had stayed in before.

Meanwhile, Sheng Siyuan went to the hospital to find his parents.

Yin Hehe’s decision to continue with the lawsuit was made after deep contemplation last night.

Coming back did indeed pose a risk of exposure.

But she couldn’t keep hiding all her life, especially not under this man’s protection, which was even less acceptable to her. The one thing she wanted now was to get as far away from him as possible.

So, whatever was meant to happen, she thought it should come sooner rather than later.

Yin Hehe began to organize her materials for the trial again.

At the hospital, Sheng Siyuan returned to the ward and immediately saw the people inside quarreling nonstop.

“I, Jian Zhongzhou, have never seen such ingratitude. I traveled all the way from the capital to help him, and what did I get? He’s unappreciative and insists on proceeding with the lawsuit! Am I a fool?”

“Yes, yes, brother-in-law, it’s all my damned son’s fault, please calm down!”

Even the old master had no choice but to appease Jian Zhongzhou in a humble tone.

But Jian Zhongzhou wouldn’t take it; his well-planned favor had gone to waste, how could he possibly calm down easily?

“I’m telling you, after this is over, don’t come asking for my help in the capital for anything. My temple is too small for your son, the Bodhisattva!”

“What?”

At those words, the elderly couple in the ward were panic-stricken.

“How can that be? Brother-in-law, our business in the capital depends entirely on your support, please don’t say such things.”

The old lady was the first to plead tearfully in front of this man.

The old master was clearly agitated as well.

Just then, Sheng Siyuan finally entered the room.

“Uncle, why such anger? What I’m doing is actually in order not to affect you.”

“What do you mean, affect me?”

Still furious, Jian Zhongzhou saw his belated nephew-in-law, his face still ashen.

Sheng Siyuan nodded: “Yes, I’ve investigated, and Shangguan Jianying actually knows quite a few people in the capital. If you were to push this case down, you might just end up making an enemy of him.”

“This…”

“So, I’ve decided to handle this matter myself. To thank you for your concern, uncle, I’ve specially prepared a gift for you and I hope you won’t find it insignificant.”

With that, the man gestured with his hand.

Soon, Xu Guannan came in from outside, presenting a real estate certificate from the capital to Jian Zhongzhou.

Jian Zhongzhou’s eyes immediately brightened.

Houses in the capital were worth their weight in gold, and with the president of Shengshi Group making a move, it didn’t need to be said that it would cost tens of millions to start.

Jian Zhongzhou finally stopped causing trouble.

“Well, alright then, you rascal, it’s not that I’m worried about you being taken advantage of. If there’s anything with your case, let me know.”

“Sure.”

Sheng Siyuan smiled and agreed.

After a moment, he prepared to leave and looked toward Jian Rou in the hospital room.

“Rourou, let’s go back then.”

“Dad, I…”

“Let Rourou stay here for a few more days. Our son is still in the hospital, and brother-in-law, let her take care of him more.”

Unexpectedly, the old lady spoke first, wanting the girl to stay.

Sheng Siyuan’s face immediately turned ashen.

But before he had a chance to speak, Jian Zhongzhou, who had gained a benefit, agreed very decisively.

“Alright, Rourou, while you’re here, remember to listen to your aunt and take good care of your cousin, okay?”

“I understand, Dad.”

Jian Rou smiled, not knowing how happy she was.

However, when she looked at the man in the hospital room and saw his broodingly handsome face, she didn’t dare to show it too openly.

Instead, she pouted a little in grievance.

“Then Rourou, let’s go to the hotel and book a room first. We’ll find you a nice one since you’ll be staying for a long time.”

“Okay.”

Jian Rou quickly followed the old lady and left.

Sheng Siyuan sat there with a darkened expression as the old master saw him and walked over.

“Although I don’t understand why you changed your mind, what you just did was right. The Jian Family is still not to be offended right now.”

“Heh…”

Hearing this, the already moody man glanced at the old man with an even uglier expression.

“Isn’t this thanks to you?”

“You—”

The old master was instantly blocked to the point of speechlessness.

But ultimately, he still held back and prepared to leave, using his cane.

“Since you’ve decided to fight this lawsuit, then don’t neglect Xiaohan. You’re relying on her now, so don’t start arguing with her over every little thing!”

“???”

These words finally made the man look directly at the old man.

“You make a lot of sense!” After saying that, he stood up.

The old master was taken aback.

“What are you going to do?”

“I’m going to keep an eye on her. Didn’t you say I’m relying on her now? Alright, I’m leaving; you do as you please.”

Then the man walked past his father, leaving the hospital room behind him.

The old master standing by the door of the hospital room was fuming.

This unfilial son!

Soon after, at the Mingzhu Hotel under Shengshi.

Yin Hehe, who had just taken a shower, hadn’t even turned on her computer when she heard a knock at the door.

“Who is it?”

She tied her bathrobe and walked barefoot to the door.

“Is it you?”

She was shocked to see the man outside her room wearing sunglasses.

“How did you come here? Aren’t you…?”

“I sent them away, but my parents are still there, and it’s noisy. I came here to sleep; I haven’t even closed my eyes since I stayed up with you last night.”

Then the man strode in nonchalantly, and by the time Yin Hehe closed the door and entered, he was already lying on the bed.
