Chapter 415: Chapter 414: Guests Have Arrived

"Mrs. Ye, have you had any other unusual reactions?" Xiao Yu asked.

Ye Sihan knitted his brows and reflected seriously, "No. Isn’t dreaming of jumping into the sea enough? Something must have happened to affect her."

It wasn’t just Xing Ling who was affected, he was too!

At the climax, she had called out Ayu!

"It can only be... Wu Qianqian," Xiao Yu said.

He was referring to the photo that had been posted online.

A fierce light flashed through Ye Sihan’s dark pupils, "Ignorant fool."

Just as he finished speaking, there was a knock at the door.

Xiao Yu turned to open the door, and standing there was Wu Qianqian.

Dressed elegantly and with poise, "Is Sihan here?"

Xiao Yu thought, she had delivered herself to his doorstep, saving him the trouble of finding her.

He stepped aside, letting Wu Qianqian in.

Upon entering and seeing Ye Sihan, Wu Qianqian’s eyes sparkled with light.

But she wondered, why hadn’t Xiao Yu left?

She wanted to be alone with Ye Sihan.

That way, she would have more opportunities.

"Sihan, are you busy? How about having lunch together at noon? I don’t mean anything by it, just lunch," Wu Qianqian said.

"Is my name yours to call?" Ye Sihan’s dark eyes were as sharp as a hawk’s.

Wu Qianqian’s smile stiffened on her face, "But I... I’ve always called you that."

Ye Sihan leaned back in his chair, relaxed yet emitting an oppressive aura, "It’s my fault for letting you harbor unrealistic fantasies."

Xiao Yu chimed in, "Why did you post that picture online? I believe Mr. Ye has already made things clear to you. Don’t deny your scheming."

"You were the one who approached me first, weren’t you? We both fell in love at first sight, so why do you suddenly reject me?" Wu Qianqian asked sadly.

"You and her are nothing alike," Ye Sihan said coldly.

"Like who?" Wu Qianqian didn’t understand.

"I will make you return to square one, that’s the price of your mistake," Ye Sihan said.

Wu Qianqian wanted to say more, but Xiao Yu interjected, "Get out!"

"The photo was my fault, but all I did was like you!" Wu Qianqian said.

"Many people like me, what are you then?" Ye Sihan was cold and unfeeling.

Wu Qianqian couldn’t believe the drastic change in Ye Sihan’s attitude towards her, as if she were trash that disgusted him even with an extra glance.

Xiao Yu spoke again, "Out, before I have to get physical."

Wu Qianqian, deeply distressed, turned and left.

At first, she didn’t understand what Ye Sihan meant by the "price."

When she returned to Caged Studio, she discovered someone packing up her things in her office.

"Why are you touching my things?" she demanded angrily.

"You’re no longer an artist of this studio," the assistant said.

Another one added, "We have received instructions from above. All your contracted resources have been canceled."

Wu Qianqian’s legs gave way, and if not for holding onto a nearby door, she would have collapsed.

She couldn’t believe that once Ye Sihan decided to discard her, he would be so ruthless.

She regretted it.

Why did she post that photo?

Without love, she wasn’t desperate, but now she had lost her career too.

And Yi Die watched this whole development, feeling extremely indignant!

Why was it so difficult to deal with Xing Ling?

She was just a stand-in!

The "stand-in" Xing Ling made a call, and when Ye Sihan saw the caller ID on the phone, he waved his hand dismissively.

Xiao Yu nodded and left the office, closing the door gently behind him.

"Ye Sihan, I won’t be coming home tonight. My second brother needs me for something, that’s it."

Before Ye Sihan could respond, the call had ended.

Ye Sihan looked at the disconnected call and raised an eyebrow, "Running away from home?"

Xing Ling was indeed in Xing Yanjie’s apartment at that moment.

After hanging up the phone, she threw it aside, seemingly indifferent, but her heart was still wondering if Ye Sihan would call her?

He didn’t.

And then she got even angrier.

Indeed, she was nothing but a stand-in.

And now, with a marriage certificate, she couldn’t even run away!

When Xing Yanjie returned, he was surprised to see the person munching on oranges on the sofa, "What’s going on? You’re alone?"

"I came back to see my second brother!" Xing Ling laughed, acting as if nothing was wrong.

Xing Yanjie sat down next to her, "Did Ye Sihan bully you?"

"No," she said, although her face appeared more forlorn than her words suggested.

"I’ll go ask him!" Xing Yanjie stood up.

"Don’t!" Xing Ling hastily grabbed him.

Xing Yanjie sat back down. "What exactly is going on?"

Xing Ling’s face was puffed up with anger. "The person Ye Sihan likes is Tang Yu."

Xing Yanjie remained expressionless and asked, "And then?"

"What do you mean, ’and then’?" Xing Ling looked at him in surprise. "Second brother, isn’t this serious? Ye Sihan married me because I look like Tang Yu, he doesn’t like me! When he woke up in the hospital, he said the one he’s always liked was me, but I was deceived by him! Is the word of the man in charge of KING Group as worthless as a fart?"

Xing Yanjie touched his nose. "I think he likes you quite a bit."

"That’s because I look like Tang Yu!"

"Did he do something to you?"

Xing Ling bit her lip and didn’t speak.

She couldn’t bring herself to say it!

"Moreover, I keep dreaming about Tang Yu jumping into the sea. What does her suicide have to do with me? It can’t be that she’s troubling my soul because I married Ye Sihan, right?"

"You’re even superstitious now."

"Anyway, I’m in a bad mood, don’t bother me..." She was sullen.

"Seriously though, even if Ye Sihan really has Tang Yu in his heart, you don’t need to feel threatened. Tang Yu isn’t here, and you’ll always be Mrs. Ye. Overthinking will only lead to unnecessary worries," Xing Yanjie comforted her.

"I was thinking the same thing, but... don’t you find it unfair to me? And, what if someone who looks exactly like Tang Yu appears? Then I could very well be replaced!"

"You think you’re on wholesale?" Xing Yanjie couldn’t help but laugh. Seeing Xing Ling pouting, he reached out and ruffled her hair. "Don’t worry, Ye Sihan won’t have anyone but you."

"Are you that confident in Ye Sihan?" Xing Ling thought to herself, where does he get this confidence from?

"If he really does wrong by you, your big brother and I will be the first to take him down!"

"Well... it’s not that serious, second brother, you’re too vicious, that’s not good," Xing Ling frowned.

"Look at you, lacking ambition!" Xing Yanjie mockingly said. "Okay, spend the evening with your second brother. Whenever you’re unhappy, remember your family will always have your back, don’t be afraid."

"Second brother, you’re the best."

"Your second brother will cook something delicious for you personally."

"That’s great, it’s been so long since I’ve had the Chinese cuisine you cook!" Xing Ling’s mood improved a lot.

She was eating oranges and watching TV in the living room, waiting for dinner.

Xing Yanjie showcased his culinary skills and served all the dishes on the table.

Following the aroma, Xing Ling came to the table. "Wow, there’s so much? It smells so good! Can I eat now?"

"Wait a bit longer."

Just as Xing Ling was about to ask what they were waiting for, the doorbell rang.

"Go open the door, we have a guest," Xing Yanjie said.

"Who is it?"

"You’ll know once you open the door."

Bearing the previous encounter in mind, Xing Ling first looked at the video doorbell and then saw Ye Sihan.

She suddenly didn’t want to open the door.

Turning around, she glared at Xing Yanjie. "You invited Ye Sihan over?"

"He came to freeload a meal. If you don’t want him to come in, just let him stand at the door. I don’t mind either way," Xing Yanjie shrugged.

Xing Ling felt that her second brother did it on purpose.

She didn’t want to open the door for Ye Sihan at all. Why should she? Does her second brother not know how unreasonable Ye Sihan is?

But could she really leave him standing at the door?

Seeing that her second brother had no intention of coming over to open the door.

After thinking it over, Xing Ling decided she could open the door, but not to let him in.

As soon as the door opened, Ye Sihan’s dark eyes fixed on her deeply.

"What are you doing here? I already said I would be staying here tonight. You can go back!" Xing Ling said and tried to close the door.

A hand was placed on the door, seemingly without much effort, but Xing Ling couldn’t close it despite using all her strength.

Then her wrist was grasped.

The shadow approached, pulling her into his arms and slamming the door shut.

Angry, Xing Ling struggled out of his embrace. "I won’t go back with you!"

"I’ve come for dinner."

Xing Ling twisted her body and went to the living room, ignoring him completely.

At the dinner table, Xing Ling ate in silence.

Xing Yanjie and Ye Sihan talked about business.

It’s as if she was invisible.

It was better they didn’t talk to her, she wouldn’t respond anyway.

After finishing her meal, she got up from the dinner table and went to watch TV in the living room.

Her attention wasn’t on the television, she didn’t even know what was playing.

Then she heard Xing Yanjie making a phone call, sounding like he was going out.

"Ling, I’m stepping out for a bit, got something to take care of," he said.

Xing Ling glared at her second brother. Was he serious?

"I’ll go with you!" she stood up.

"What for?"

"I’ll supervise."
