Chapter 288: Chapter 288 Difficult Choices

Yan Sijue seemed to only now come back to his senses.

He pressed his lips tightly, his gaze locked on her, as if trying to see every detail of her clearly!

She... has lost a lot of weight...

This woman never had much flesh on her, and now she looked almost like a wandering ghost.

A sudden sharp pain shot through Yan Sijue’s heart!

Would she still blame him, even hate him?

So many uncertainties, he didn’t even dare to step forward, didn’t dare to beg for her forgiveness! He was very afraid of seeing the gaze of disgust and hatred from her!

"...Si Jue." In the end, it was Mu Yiliang who softly broke the silence, her slightly hoarse voice carrying an indescribable trembling and lingering.

Yan Sijue was violently shaken! He took a big step forward, wanting to pull her into his arms! But he was firmly held back by Qiao Yebai!

Yan Sijue turned to look at him, his gaze cold enough to kill: "Mr. Qiao, let me go!"

Qiao Yebai remained expressionless: "President Yan, this is my territory. Did you forget that you didn’t bring any subordinates when you came in? If you insist on this, I’ll have to let my men escort you out!"

"Qiao Yebai, dare you!" Yan Sijue radiated hostility all over, and if it weren’t for Yiliang being just a few meters away, he would have killed this man!

Long-standing guilt and longing were driving him to the brink of madness! Now that the person he had dreamed of day and night was so close, he didn’t want to wait a second more!

"How dare I not?" Qiao Yebai sneered coldly. Before he finished his words, several people walked out from the rooms connected to the living room, surrounding Yan Sijue.

Mu Yiliang’s face changed: "Yebai! What are you doing?"

"Yiliang, take Xiaoze and go back." Qiao Yebai’s voice was devoid of warmth, "Of course, if you want to leave with this man, I won’t stop you, but don’t ever acknowledge me as your brother again."

His voice sounded calm, yet it was exceptionally resolute!

Mu Yiliang froze, all sound caught in her throat.

"Yiliang..." After a period of silence, Yan Sijue softly called her name, his voice very hoarse.

He seemed to calm down suddenly, looking steadily at her, his eyes dark as ink, deep and unreadable.

Mu Yiliang trembled, looking at the now calm Yan Sijue, feeling immensely distressed.

His calmness carried a hint of bitterness and understanding. He probably believed that she would absolutely not choose to go with him.

No, it’s not like this! This was never a difficult choice! Qiao Yebai just misunderstood!

"I just want to say a few words to him, just a few words, brother, I beg you..."

"Take the young lady back to her room!" Qiao Yebai did not give her a chance to speak.

"Yebai!" Mu Yiliang was so anxious that tears were about to fall, Xiaoze held her tightly, glaring fiercely at Qiao Yebai and the subordinates who planned to move forward.

"Mr. Qiao, there’s no need for the trouble, I will leave now." Yan Sijue suddenly spoke lightly.

Qiao Yebai smiled faintly: "Take your time, no need to see you off."

Mu Yiliang looked at Yan Sijue’s calm and indifferent eyes and brows, feeling terribly blocked. No, she couldn’t let him misunderstand anymore, or there would really be no chance for redemption!

If worst comes to worst, she would leave with Yan Sijue first; she would find a chance to explain things to Yebai later. Once the misunderstanding was cleared up, he surely wouldn’t really disown her!

"Si Jue! I..."

"Yiliang!" Qiao Yebai seemed to know what she was going to say, coldly interrupted her words, "I know what you want to say to him, I will convey it for you."
