Quadruplets’ Charm: The Tycoon’s Hidden Heirs
Chapter 446 - 445

Chapter 446: 445

"Ye Sihan, you promised me... ah..." Xing Ling’s waist trembled, her thin white legs struggled to break free.

"I promised not to touch you, yes, but what about you? Meeting men behind my back, do you expect me to stand by and watch? Do you think I have a good temper?" Ye Sihan’s fingers bent, pressing down with the palm of his hand.

"Ah ah..." Xing Ling shook her head helplessly, "No... please..."

"Tell me, what did you talk about?"

"No... Uh... Ah ah ah—" Xing Ling’s waist suddenly convulsed, her body shook violently, she arched her neck deeply, and her legs trembled tautly.

It was only a minute or so, back and forth.

Ye Sihan felt the changes in her body, his dark eyes dimmed, his blood boiled to the point where veins bulged, but he restrained himself with great effort.

He breathed heavily, staring at her flushed little face.

"Did you enjoy that?" Ye Sihan asked in a hoarse voice. "If you ever meet him again..."

The rationale had returned to Xing Ling; she raised her hand and slapped him—

"Smack!" Ye Sihan’s face turned slightly, his body stiffened.

Xing Ling kicked away his arm, rolled out of bed, straightened her nightgown as she ran out.

Ye Sihan, left on the bed, had a dark expression, his aura terrifying. More than anger, deep wounds were throbbing with pain.

Xing Ling ran to the room she used to live in, entered, and locked the door behind her.

She didn’t know if she could stop Ye Sihan from coming in, but this act was also a form of self-protection.

Once inside the room, her legs gave way, and she slumped to the floor, covering her face as she wept.

Why did Ye Sihan have to touch her?

Even if it was just a hand, it was not supposed to happen; they had said no touching!

She didn’t want it!

She didn’t want to get hurt even more...

Xing Ling leaned against the wall, just like that, all night long.

If there was sleep, it was a confused slumber, with something oppressive in her heart, very uncomfortable...

The next day, before the children woke up, she collected herself and stepped out of the room.

On her way to the stairs, she encountered Ye Sihan also coming downstairs.

The two faced each other, about two meters apart.

Memories of the previous night emerged abruptly, making the atmosphere strange.

Xing Ling, feeling awkward, averted her gaze and turned her face away to go downstairs.

Her wrist was suddenly gripped tight, pulled back.

"Didn’t sleep well last night?"

Xing Ling pulled her arm back, "Didn’t sleep at all, are you satisfied now?"

"...That wasn’t touching."

"Do you think it doesn’t count as touching if you don’t go in?" said Xing Ling, her face pale. "Let’s forget about our deal, in any case, I will definitely leave Kyoto, I’ll leave you!"

Panic flashed through Ye Sihan’s dark eyes, his hands by his sides trembling.

He stepped forward and embraced her in his arms, "I won’t touch you again in the future, I promise, okay?"

Xing Ling’s expression turned numb, even lacking the strength to struggle free.

Didn’t Ye Sihan understand?

No matter how he tried to hold on, it was useless...

At noon, Xing Ling called Meng Jilin, saying she had time now.

After arranging a place to meet, Xing Ling took a car straight to the pet hospital.

While Niannian was being sterilized inside, she and Meng Jilin sat outside waiting.

"Didn’t you sleep well?" Meng Jilin, as a doctor, could tell at a glance that Xing Ling lacked sleep.

"I’ve been having some insomnia lately, it’s nothing." Xing Ling said.

"Take care of yourself."

"I know, thank you, Dr. Meng." Xing Ling said.

"Won’t Ye Sihan mind you coming out with me like this?" Meng Jilin asked.

"What opinion could he have? I’m free." Xing Ling emphasized.

"That’s good,"

Just as she finished speaking, Xing Ling’s phone started to ring.

She glanced at it and a look of rejection crossed her face, but she still stood up to answer the call at the hospital entrance, "I’m occupied with something outside."

"With Meng Jilin?" Ye Sihan’s voice was somewhat cold.

"Is there a problem?"

"...I wanted to have dinner with you. That’s not too much to ask, is it?" Ye Sihan on the other end held back before saying.

"Not today at noon. I’ll return to the crew as soon as I’m done here. Stop calling me."

"Am I disturbing your good time?" Ye Sihan’s voice was chilly.

"Must you speak like this?" Xing Ling asked. "At least I won’t just sleep with someone of the opposite sex casually!"

Furious, she hung up the phone.

The phone then went silent.

Ye Sihan sat in his office chair like a trapped beast, yanking at his collar, unable to alleviate the pain in his heart.

At the set, Xing Ling made a call to Xing Yanjie, "Second brother, are you busy?"

"As long as it’s you calling, not even the sky falling could stop me," Xing Yanjie said.

"What do you want to eat tonight? I’ll cook in your apartment."

"Did you have an argument with Ye Sihan?"

"Do I need a reason to cook for my second brother?"

"No, you’re very welcome."

Afterward, Xing Ling sent a message to Ye Sihan: I’m going to have dinner at my second brother’s place tonight; I won’t be staying at the Ye Mansion. I should be free to stay over for one night, right? Don’t bother me.

After sending it, it took a while before she got a response from Ye Sihan: Fine.

After reading the message, Xing Ling leaned listlessly back in her seat.

She had asked the director, and the shoot would be over in about ten days.

Xing Ling felt each day was like a year.

She went back early in the afternoon, shopped for groceries alone, and cooked dinner, so everything was ready when Xing Yanjie got home.

Xing Yanjie poked his head towards the table and peeked, "This is quite a feast?"

"I’m rarely in the mood to do this, so treasure it," she replied.

"Alright, I’ll eat it all."

Sitting down to eat, they talked about the company, filming, and when it finally quieted down, Xing Yanjie paid attention to Xing Ling’s silent demeanor.

Whether at home or here, Xing Ling wasn’t usually allowed to cook.

He had agreed today, guessing that Xing Ling was in a bad mood, letting her cook as a way to distract herself.

"Will you go back tonight?"

"No, I won’t."

"Did Ye Sihan do something to upset you? It’s okay, tell your second brother. I’m always on your side."

"It’s just... I don’t really want to see him," Xing Ling said. "Although the director said only ten days, it’s torture. If it weren’t for the children, I wouldn’t want to have any contact with Ye Sihan for even a second!"

"Then endure it a bit longer for the sake of the children. After all, once you leave the capital, you’ll be separated from the quadruplets, and who knows when you’ll see them again. Consider it compensation for them," he suggested.

"Maybe you could take the kids with you," Xing Yanjie said. "The Xing Family can surely raise four children."

Xing Ling didn’t even think about it and shook her head, "Ye Sihan wouldn’t allow it."

Xing Yanjie then fell silent.

He actually thought that Ye Sihan wasn’t being very rational now.

Who knows what he might do.

After Xing Ling went back to her room at night, Xing Yanjie made a call to Ye Sihan from his study, "Are you busy?"

"How is she?" Ye Sihan was only concerned about that.

"If you’re concerned, why not come and see for yourself?" Xing Yanjie was surprised Ye Sihan could hold back.

In the past, he would have shown up at dinner.

Now it was eight or nine o’clock, and he was still keeping his composure.

Was he planning to come in the middle of the night?
