Chapter 79: Chapter 79: The Inextinguishable Affliction

Si Yuhuan stood, cold-faced, in front of Jian Xi, locking eyes with Zhou Yan.

Having just dealt with Chu Xiao, another Zhou Yan appears. How many men does this damned woman have around her? She’s not just having an affair; she’s practically living outside the wall.

Zhou Yan, who was adaptable, struggled to contain his anger, veins bulging on his neck. Still, he couldn’t help but say to Si Yuhuan, "Sorry. If you don’t know how to cherish her, please learn to let go. The person you don’t love is loved by someone else!"

His eyes burned with intensity as he stared at Si Yuhuan. "You may rule the business world, but there are many capable people out there. You can’t look down on everyone forever, Director Si. Don’t narrow your own path."

Jian Xi was incredibly excited; I truly want to applaud Zhou Yan! The courage to stand up to Si Yuhuan like this! Zhou Yan definitely ranks at the top. In some ways, he’s much more formidable than Chu Xiao. Especially his masculinity and commanding presence—he’s so handsome!

Watching Si Yuhuan’s face turn from ashen to black, a storm clearly brewing in his eyes, Jian Xi quickly went over and tugged at Zhou Yan’s elbow. She whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "It’s your birthday today, so I won’t cause a scene. This guy has been erratic lately. I’ll take him away first."

"Senior Sister..."

"Some other day, I’ll treat you to a meal."

She kept making empty promises. This young man is too earnest, and that’s troublesome. I’ve already been deliberately keeping my distance, Jian Xi thought.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Yan grabbed her wrist in response, his face earnest. "Divorce him, and I’ll marry you."

The whole place was in an uproar. Proposing to someone else’s wife in public was truly audacious.

Si Yuhuan immediately threw a punch.

Zhou Yan was knocked to the ground, and the scene instantly became chaotic.

"Stop!" Jian Xi cried, coming to her senses and immediately moving to help him.

Si Yuhuan grabbed her wrist and sent another kick flying.

Zhou Yan was no pushover, and the two quickly got into a scuffle.

Si Yuhuan, quick and agile, landed a kick that sent Zhou Yan flying backward.

Since Zhou Yan had stitches in his arm and couldn’t exert much force, he quickly found himself at a disadvantage and began to take a beating.

Wan Yu screamed with excitement, "Awesome! Keep going! I want to record this; it’s absolutely premium material!"

She loved watching a commotion and was thrilled by the escalating drama.

Si Yuhuan took advantage of an opening to snatch her phone and smashed it mercilessly on the ground. The unfortunate phone shattered into pieces. freeNovelFire

Wan Yu was enraged and sobbed, "Si Yuhuan, you’re inhuman, destroying my property!"

Si Yuhuan tossed a card from his pocket. "Swipe it for whatever you want."

Wan Yu shamelessly picked it up immediately, wiping it with her clothing as if it were a treasure. "You said it; I won’t hold back!"

Jian Xi rushed to Zhou Yan’s side just as she saw a fist about to land.

Zhou Yan shouted, "Get out of the way!"

Jian Xi closed her eyes. "Si Yuhuan, if you want to hit someone, hit me!"

BANG!

A fist slammed into the chair beside her, shattering the reinforced chair.

Shards of glass grazed Jian Xi’s cheek, leaving a bloody cut, and tears instantly streamed from her eyes.

"Go ahead, hit me! Hit until you’re satisfied! One less of you to deal with! You’re all nothing but rotten scoundrels!" she cried, covering her face as she ran out.

Si Yuhuan pointed at Zhou Yan, warning, "She is my wife. If you dare to be so familiar and ambiguous with her in front of me again, I guarantee you’ll regret it."

After speaking, he chased after her.

Zhou Yan wanted to follow, but Wan Yu held him back.

"Sister Yu, you’re holding me back again!"

Wan Yu spoke earnestly, "Although Xixi is protecting you, have you considered how she’s supposed to face Si Yuhuan from now on? After all, they’re still husband and wife. One mustn’t go too far. Give her some time to accept things. If she likes you, it will naturally fall into place. Otherwise, if you relentlessly pursue her, I’m afraid your relationship might regress instead of progress."

Zhou Yan nodded seriously. "You’re right. I shouldn’t cause trouble for Senior Sister."

Wan Yu sighed. A woman’s heart is as fathomless as a needle at the bottom of the sea. With Zhou Yan’s limited experience, he might as well forget about winning Xixi over in this lifetime. Si Yuhuan, I can only help you this far. I hope all true lovers eventually find their way to each other. I don’t like Si Yuhuan, but in some ways, they are compatible. If Si Yuhuan could have a change of heart, he could indeed make my foolish sister happy for a lifetime. One last chance, Wan Yu told herself.

At the door, Chu Xiao stood holding a cake, having witnessed everything.

He gave a bitter smile, threw the cake into the trash bin, and turned to leave.

We both like Jian Xi, but Zhou Yan has given so much more than I have. I’m a giant in words but a dwarf in action. Deep down, I’m afraid of Si Yuhuan, terrified of him. When it comes to loving Jian Xi, I lack Zhou Yan’s dedication and unwavering resolve. No wonder she, aside from the Silicon Crystal case, hardly ever initiates contact with me. Sometimes I wonder if my feelings are just laughable, he thought.

Si Yuhuan caught up with Jian Xi and grabbed her wrist.

"What now? Still want to continue hurting and hitting me?" Jian Xi demanded, her voice filled with fury that desperately needed an outlet. "Look at me! Look at all these injuries! How many of them were caused by you? Do you have to completely destroy me before you’re satisfied? Si Yuhuan, you’re a devil!"

She cried, the tears mixing with the blood on her face, creating a horrifying sight.

Si Yuhuan panicked a little. "Quick, let me take you to the hospital to get that bandaged. Don’t worry, it won’t leave a scar."

He made several calls in quick succession.

He swiftly took Jian Xi to the hospital for disinfection and medication.

The doctor reassured them, "It’s good you came in time. Since the wound isn’t deep, it won’t need stitches. Just applying ointment twice a day should be enough for it to heal. Afterward, using some scar repair products will ensure no marks are left."

Then the doctor brought out some potent medicine. "Director Si, rest assured. With this kind of injury, I guarantee there will be absolutely no scar."

The oral anti-inflammatory medication was a newly developed, highly effective remedy.

Jian Xi hurriedly swallowed a pill.

"Don’t think that by doing this, I’ll forgive you," she said. "The pain is on my body; you, of course, can act as recklessly as you please."

"I’m sorry."

Hmm? Did I hear that right? Jian Xi thought, turning her head to look incredulously at Si Yuhuan.

"I’m very sorry," Si Yuhuan said. "I was too impulsive about this. But my impulsiveness had a reason; that kid deserved a beating. If you hadn’t stopped me, I would have killed him."

"You think you can just take a life without facing charges? Don’t act above the law, Si Yuhuan!"

"I have a hundred ways to get rid of him," he said, a fierce glint in his eyes.

The memory of Si Yuhuan’s secretary trying to kill her resurfaced, attacking Jian Xi with brutal force. She suddenly stepped back, her eyes filled with terror.

"Jian Xi?"

Did I trigger her depressive delusions? Si Yuhuan wondered.

"I told you, as long as you promise not to cheat on me, I don’t mind getting rough," he said, stretching his muscles. It’s been a long time since I’ve had a fight. Zhou Yan... very good. I definitely won’t let him off.

"Si Yuhuan, I don’t want to see you! I hate you!" Jian Xi cried, pushing him away forcefully.

Si Yuhuan grabbed her from behind, lifting her by the waist. "Whether you hate me or love me, as long as we don’t divorce, this isn’t over until one of us is dead."
