Quadruplets’ Charm: The Tycoon’s Hidden Heirs
Chapter 398 - 397: Unwelcome

Chapter 398: Chapter 397: Unwelcome

"What... what are you doing?" Xing Ling winced in pain.

Ye Yuli came back to his senses and immediately let go of her arm, "Xiaoyu, don’t you recognize me? I’m Yuli."

"I’ve said it, I just look like Tang Yu."

Ye Yuli shook his head as he looked into Tang Yu’s unfamiliar eyes, and at her from head to toe, "No, you are Tang Yu, you must be!"

He had always refused to accept that Tang Yu had jumped into the sea, and he had been searching for her everywhere for two years; he never expected to actually find her.

To be told she wasn’t the one?

How could that be? She looks exactly like Tang Yu! How could there be such a coincidence in this world!

"Who are you to Tang Yu?" Xing Ling asked, looking at the emotionally charged man with curiosity.

"I am your first love, don’t you remember? Think harder!" Ye Yuli thought, could it be that some problem with her memory was causing her to forget?

Xing Ling thought to herself, impressive, her first love.

Because of Tang Yu, even her fate with men has improved.

What a pity it’s not her destined relationship, but a calamitous one!

One Ye Sihan was already enough to bother her, and now here comes a first love!

However, considering she knew nothing about Tang Yu’s past, could she perhaps learn more from another’s mouth?

"Shall we find a place to talk?"

Ye Yuli, eager for closeness, naturally agreed, "Okay."

He took her in his car to a nearby park.

He also bought her a cup of coffee, and the two sat on a bench.

In front of the bench was a lake, with willows along its edge; the scenery was very beautiful and quiet.

"My name is Xing Ling." Xing Ling introduced herself.

Ye Yuli, hearing this unfamiliar name, corrected her, "Your name is Tang Yu."

"I’ve already told you I’m not Tang Yu; have you ever considered my feelings when you treat me as Tang Yu?" Xing Ling said helplessly.

"Who else treats you as Tang Yu?" Ye Yuli thought of something and his expression turned ugly, "Ye Sihan?"

"You know him?" Xing Ling asked.

"He’s my cousin."

"..." Xing Ling’s expression twitched.

Her first love is her cousin, and the father of the child is the cousin? This is...

"Have you met him?" Ye Yuli’s expression became serious and dark.

Xing Ling nodded, thinking to herself, not only had she met him, but she had also fallen for him.

"You need to stay away from him!" Ye Yuli urgently said, "Don’t let him hurt you again! You only have one life!"

Xing Ling found it strange to listen to, "Why did Tang Yu jump into the sea?"

"Do you really not remember?" Ye Yuli asked.

Xing Ling shook her head, I don’t know, it’s not ’don’t remember’.

"Then let me tell you about the past." Ye Yuli detailed how he and Tang Yu broke up, then how Tang Yu caught the attention of Ye Sihan, how he hurt her, tormented her, and forced her to jump into the sea.

Xing Ling felt a chill down her spine.

Were those things real or fake?

Why was the Ye Sihan described by Ye Yuli so terrifying?

Like a Devil.

Tang Yu’s leap into the sea was actually forced by Ye Sihan? Does that mean there was no love between the two?

"Ye Sihan has nothing but... revenge for Tang Yu?" Xing Ling struggled to accept it. "Perhaps there were other reasons for Tang Yu’s suicide?"

"You have four adorable children, what reason do you have to commit suicide? I even think, could Tang Yu have been thrown into the sea by Ye Sihan!" Ye Yuli’s heart twisted slightly.

Xing Ling was so frightened that the coffee in her hand fell to the ground.

Her expression panicked.

"Did I scare you?" Ye Yuli’s voice softened.

"If that’s the case, how could he possibly let me stay by his side?" Xing Ling felt there was something wrong with Ye Yuli’s words.

Even if there were two people who looked exactly alike, isn’t that too hard to accept?

There are people in this world who love everything associated with their beloved, and vice versa.

"Nobody can guess what’s on Ye Sihan’s mind, but you can’t stay by his side; it’s too dangerous!"

"I’m not Tang Yu, what do I have to fear..." Xing Ling convinced herself.

She is she, Tang Yu is Tang Yu, they are different.

Moreover, she now likes Ye Sihan, how could anyone’s words sway her feelings for Ye Sihan?

"There is a way to prove you are Tang Yu." Ye Yuli said, "Get a paternity test done with the quadruplets."

Xing Ling stood up abruptly, "You’re getting more and more ridiculous; I told you I am not Tang Yu! From now on, treat me as a stranger! Goodbye! No, never see you again!"

With that, she ran off.

"Xiaoyu!" Ye Yuli called after her.

Xing Ling, as if deaf to his voice, continued to run forward until she was far away before stopping.

She walked forward slowly, her steps so heavy.

She had intended to learn more about Ye Sihan and Tang Yu from Yuli, but was he telling a horror story?

Even suggesting a paternity test with the quadruplets?

Could that man have lost his mind?

Xing Ling certainly wouldn’t do such a thing!

Otherwise, people might think she had gone crazy trying to replace Tang Yu!

Also, deep in her heart, she subconsciously sided with Ye Sihan, believing he would not have killed Tang Yu.

Even without love, after all, Tang Yu was the quadruplets’ biological mother.

But was there really no love?

How many times had Ye Sihan touched her?

Were his reactions and passion those of someone who hated her?

Xing Ling hailed a taxi and went straight to the bottom of the KING Corporation building.

"Driver, please wait for a moment, I’ll go inside to get some money for you."

"You’re not going to run away, are you?"

"For just tens of yuan? Would I do that? Or would you like to come with me to get it?" Xing Ling asked.

The driver, seeing her well-dressed appearance, believed she wouldn’t fare-dodge and agreed to wait by the roadside.

Xing Ling took Ye Sihan’s private elevator and arrived at the office floor.

She didn’t see Ye Sihan in the office, so she asked the front desk, who said Ye Sihan was in the pantry.

Xing Ling knew that Ye Sihan had a private pantry and headed there.

When she reached the door, she heard someone talking inside.

It was Xing Yanjie.

Xing Ling wondered, why was her second brother here? She hadn’t seen him since they last parted at the Ye Mansion.

Was he still angry with her?

Just as she was about to enter, she heard Ye Sihan say, "When I regain my memory, I’ll naturally let her go."

"What if you can never remember?" Xing Yanjie asked. "Are you going to keep Xing Ling by your side forever?"

Xing Ling stood there stunned, feeling shocked and panicked by their conversation, and burst into the pantry, "What did you just say?"

The two men inside didn’t expect Xing Ling to appear.

Ye Sihan’s dark eyes looked at Xing Ling without a word.

Xing Yanjie regained his composure and said, "Just a casual chat, where have you been? I came to tell you that Han Shuo has gone back."

"You lost your memories?" Xing Ling no longer had any interest in Han Shuo and looked at Ye Sihan. "Is it because my face resembles Tang Yu’s that... you are just using me?"

But Ye Sihan’s silence made her heart sink to the bottom.

Her eyes began to redden slightly.

Xing Yanjie felt extremely distressed, "Ling..."

"Second brother, the taxi downstairs is still waiting for me to pay. I need to get my purse and phone," Xing Ling turned and ran off.

Of course, Xing Yanjie followed her out of concern.

Ye Sihan stood alone in the pantry, his facial lines tense.

A sense of discomfort emerged in his chest, making his breathing somewhat difficult.

It was indeed for this reason that he had kept her with him.

Why did his heart feel pain when he saw the tears in Xing Ling’s eyes...

Xing Ling rode back to her apartment in Xing Yanjie’s car.

Sitting in the passenger seat, she turned her face towards the car window, her expression forlorn.

"Ling, don’t be upset. If you stop now, it’s still not too late," Xing Yanjie urged her.

"Second brother, I don’t understand your behavior," Xing Ling turned her face and questioned him angrily. "You knew Ye Sihan’s intentions all along, so why didn’t you tell me? Are you two in cahoots? I’m your real sister, aren’t I?"

"Ling, if I had told you, would you have stopped liking him?" Xing Yanjie asked. "I’ve been trying to stop you."

His words seemed to place all the blame on Xing Ling’s shoulders.

Because he couldn’t tell her the truth and say, in fact, you are Tang Yu.

That would only make her more miserable.

Xing Ling fell silent.

The discomfort in her heart made it almost hard for her to breathe.

"Ye Sihan... he doesn’t remember anything? Including Tang Yu?"

"He remembers everything except Tang Yu. However, he has videos and photos of Tang Yu, so he targeted you," Xing Yanjie said.

"Someone told me that Tang Yu was harmed by Ye Sihan, and I don’t understand why, if that’s the case, I should stay by his side. So it’s because he doesn’t remember..." Xing Ling’s eyes were turning with tears. "If he remembers, will I then be useless to him?"

Xing Yanjie frowned.

What exactly did Tang Yu mean to Ye Sihan? Was it love or not love?

Asking Xiao Yu, who was a shrewd assistant.

He wouldn’t speak ill of Ye Sihan and Tang Yu, just mentioning a misunderstanding.

What kind of misunderstanding could lead to Tang Yu jumping into the sea?

"Want to go home? If you do, your second brother will take you. I’ll communicate with Ye Sihan," Xing Yanjie still wanted to prioritize Xing Ling.

Business doesn’t have to be done in Jingdu.

Xing Ling neither nodded nor shook her head.

They remained silent all the way to her apartment building.

After parking the car, Xing Ling and Xing Yanjie got out.

"Second Brother! Little Sister!"

Xing Ling looked over to see a tall, thin man energetically greeting them; he was wearing glasses and flashing an eight-tooth smile that was blindingly white.

Xing Yanjie’s face darkened, "What are you doing here?"

"Oh, I haven’t seen my little sister for so long, I missed her, so I came over," the man was Shen Kuai, the grandson of the Xing Family’s grandmother through her daughter, that is, the son of Xing Tian and Xing Yanjie’s aunt.

He had rather dark, twisted thoughts.

Because the grandmother’s will left nothing to her daughter and grandson, their hearts were filled with great imbalance, and they viewed the sons and daughters of the Xing Family as thorns in their side.

Now that he had come to Jingdu, saying he missed his little sister, who would believe that?

"Ling, you won’t be unwelcoming, will you?" Shen Kuai approached Xing Ling, his face unnaturally close.

Xing Yanjie pushed him away, "Keep away from her!"

Xing Ling, not in the mood to deal with this, simply said, "Unwelcome." And with that, she turned and headed for the elevator.

Before she got on the elevator with Xing Yanjie, she looked back at Shen Kuai in the distance, his face displaying an uncomfortable smile.

"Second brother, what is he here for?" Xing Ling asked.

"Don’t bother with him; he’s disturbed," Xing Yanjie briefly lost focus, thinking that he needed to call Xing Tian.

Shen Kuai had actually come to Jingdu.

What was he up to?
