Chapter 289: Chapter 289 She Finally Knows What Heartbreak Is

His voice was extremely restrained, with a hint of ruthlessness, making Mu Yiliang’s heart cold. She knew Qiao Yebai had been angered by her.

Thinking about how this man lost his status as the Mu Family’s eldest son because of her, she could no longer utter any heartless words. She tightly grasped Xiaoze’s hand, steeling herself to take her son back to the room. From the corner of her eye, she saw Yan Sijue’s still calm expression.

But that calmness seemed to be a precursor to a storm, or the deathly silence after despair.

His gaze also remained fixed on her, and Mu Yiliang finally understood the meaning of heartbreak.

In the living room, as Mu Yiliang left, Qiao Yebai finally breathed a sigh of relief. He waved his hand to dismiss his subordinates and looked at Yan Sijue, "President Yan, forgive my boldness."

Yan Sijue still looked ahead in the direction Mu Yiliang had gone. In truth, he noticed her anxiety and struggle. For a moment, he almost believed she would leave Qiao Yebai and choose to go with him. But soon, he realized how absurd that hope was.

He was eager to see her, just to know how she was doing. Now that he had seen her, although she had lost some weight, her complexion looked rosy. Even if he had hurt her that day, she seemed to have recovered by now.

He should be reassured, shouldn’t he?

As for what she wanted to say to him...

"Yiliang wants you to know that she knows what happened that day was an accident, so she won’t blame you." Qiao Yebai’s voice rang out coldly, "As for your engagement, she thinks you need to reconsider your choice of fiancée. If you’re going to marry that woman named Chen, she won’t let you have Xiaoze."

Yan Sijue let out a short laugh and nodded slightly, "Tell her, I will think about it."

"Then take care." Qiao Yebai observed the man’s expression, feeling a mix of emotions inside him.

This man, from initial expectation and joy to calm restraint, seemed to take only a few seconds, just in the few seconds of Mu Yiliang’s shocked silence.

He thought he could vaguely guess where this man’s emotional entanglement lay.

"Mr. Qiao." Yan Sijue suddenly looked at him, smiling faintly, "Based on the information I currently have, I can’t be a hundred percent sure you’re Yiliang’s brother. If one day I discover you’re impersonating her brother, I certainly won’t let you off."

The calm tone made Qiao Yebai’s heart shudder.

Qiao Yebai laughed coldly, "President Yan, you should worry about yourself first. If she truly loved you, why would she care about my threats? The real reason she doesn’t want to go with you isn’t because of me."

Upon hearing this, Yan Sijue’s face seemed to turn a bit paler.

He chuckled darkly, "Mr. Qiao, you should be grateful I still have some concerns about her."

Qiao Yebai’s expression was somewhat awkward; he understood what Yan Sijue meant. If it weren’t for concerns about Mu Yiliang, he would have made a move against him long ago.

However, given this man’s feelings for Yiliang, perhaps he never would make a move against him.

Thinking of this, Qiao Yebai smiled faintly.

Yan Sijue had already turned and left, his steps still unhurried. His thin and upright back exuded a sharpness, imposing despite being alone.

Outside the Rt mansion, Yang Ru respectfully waited there, holding a phone in his hand. If Yan Sijue didn’t come out for a long time, he would take action.
