Chapter 119 He’s in hospital again
Ye Enchen’s threats made Xia Nuan feel scared and resentful. But she couldn’t play hard ball with him. After all, it’s not the perfect time.
“Could you please let me go? I know you just want to take me away from Ye Sichen. You think he cares about me the most. I’m just a puppet for you. Now you win. Please let me go.” Xia Nuan said sorrowfully.
Ye Enchen held her hands tightly and forced her to get close to him.
“Then you can go back to Ye Sichen, right? Don’t even think about it, Xia Nuan.”
Xia Nuan shook her head, “No, I will stay away from both of you as long as you give me the chance to leave.”
She begged Ye Enchen.
“I will marry you no matter what you say. So, don’t waste our time and just enjoy my love.” Ye Enchen wanted to kiss her but was refused.
He loosened Xia Nuan angrily. “You have two choices. Marry me or have an abortion.”
“What? Ye Enchen, what makes you think that you are qualified to force me to kill my baby?!” Xia Nuan lost her senses and screamed.
“Because you belong to me.”
“No! I never belonged to you!” Xia Nuan rushed out of the door. Ye Enchen didn’t follow her. He just sat there and enjoyed his wine.
Xia Nuan took her chances and tried to get away from the posthouse. But she saw a few men looking at her vigilantly. All of them were armed.
They were moving toward her.
She could only retreat.
Finally, she had to get back to her bedroom.
“Nuannuan, I’m asking you. Will you marry me?” Ye Enchen asked.
Xia Nuan bit her lips hopelessly, “You can’t force me to do that.”
“Fair enough. I’ll ask someone to operate the induced labor surgery for you.” Then he walked by Xia Nuan when he finished the wine.
“Ye Enchen, why are you so cold-blood? Why do you treat me like this? Did I do anything wrong?” Her shrill voice echoed in his ears.
“No. I’m doing this because I love you.” Ye Enchen sneered and wiped away her tears.
“OK. As long as you won’t hurt the baby, I’ll marry you. Anything you want.” Xia Nuan finally compromised.
Hearing this, Ye Enchen turned around and held her in his arms.
Modu City had been rainy for a long time. Ye Sichen stood next to the window and looked outside. He coughed badly.
He always thought that the rain was the tears of Xia Nuan.
She jumped down from the department because of his distrust. He could only live with confession and sorrow for the rest of his life.
Ye Sichen stooped and covered his chest afflictively. He never expected that his life would be worse than death after he lost Xia Nuan.
He came back to earth and fell down to the chair. He made a phone call and asked hoarsely, “Mr. Song, is there any news of Xia Nuan? Please don’t lie to me. Did you hide her? Is she unwilling to see me?”
Ye Sichen seemed out of his mind. He kept asking Song Kuncheng.
“Xia Nuan was dead because of you.” Song Kuncheng gnashed and said word by word.
Ye Sichen found nothing to answer. He lost his thought with the phone in his hand.
Si Nanyin took Wuyou and Nianci into the room. She was worried when she saw Ye Sichen emaciated. Si Nanyin signaled them to talk to Ye Sichen immediately.
“Dad, what’s going on?”
“You need to rest, dad.”
Ye Sichen forced a smile and touched their heads, “I haven’t been out with you two for a long time. I am sorry.”
They didn’t have mother. He was such an incompetent father who could only give them outstanding living conditions but not an intact family.
God opened a window for him but closed another.
Si Nanyin delivered Ye Sichen a glass of water and signed, “Chen, please stop thinking of Xia Nuan. You have to move on. She may still be alive since her body haven’t found yet. Otherwise, you will meet her if you are destined. You shouldn’t blame yourself. If I asked you to go there with me before I went to Lin Meng’s department, everything would be different.”
The truth came out in the wash. Lin Meng lied to Xia Nuan. She knocked Xia Nuan unconscious when she went to the apartment. Then she performed her ruse. Si Nanyin thought Xia Nuan sent her the message, so she went there to try the wedding dress. Lin Meng attacked her as well. After that, she took Si Nanyin’s nude pictures with Xia Nuan’s phone. She even colluded with Nan Xiu to slander Xia Nuan.
Si Nanyin’s reputation was destroyed once. She couldn’t bury her anger, so she put Lin Meng in jail. But Lin Meng was released because she had schizophrenia.
Si Nanyin was angry but she couldn’t do anything since Lin Meng was under the cover of Luo’s Group.
To be exact, it was Luo Dai’er. She was jealous of Si Nanyin who was in a relationship with Ye Sichen. So, she took advantage of her power and influence to suppress Si Nanyin.
Ye Sichen was also in trouble.
The public news slandered Ye Sichen every few days. According to them, Ye Sichen was beyond remedy.
Thinking of that, Si Nanyin tried to inspire him, “Chen, you have to cheer up. We’ll continue to make music MV and hold concerts to get rid of these negative effects.”
Ye Sichen didn’t care about that, “I am tired. I just want to stay with my kids.”
“You can’t give up.”
“My time is gone. I just want to live an ordinary life.” Ye Sichen seemed like older than before. His deep eyes were gloomy like he had seen through the fickleness of the world.
Si Nanyin found that Ye Sichen’s passion was gone. He had lost his ambition.
“Chen, you are born to be an extraordinary person. You are the king of music. And you’ll always be. Think it over.” Si Nanyin left.
Ye Sichen was still expressionless.
He braced himself up and held the children to the amusement park and the ranch.
The kids talked about Xia Nuan everywhere.
Because they had many memories with Xia Nuan in these spots.
“Dad, where is mom? I haven’t seen her for a long time. Some said that she was dead. I don’t want her dead.”
Nianci held Ye Sichen’s arm and asked sadly.
Ye Sichen was shocked. He circled Nianci tighter, “She is not dead.”
“Shall we go and find her? Mom’s phone is out of service. Where is she?”
Ye Sichen didn’t respond. He looked at the blue sky thoughtfully.
“Sir, Lin Meng has been kneeling outside the villa for a long time. She wants to see you.” Uncle Xiang came here with a serious face.
Ye Sichen answered indifferently, “Call the mental hospital to take her away.”
He didn’t want to see her. She would remind him of Xia Nuan’s accident.
Uncle Xiang followed Ye Sichen’s order.
After Wuyou and Nianci fell asleep at midnight, the chief of the music company, Qin Ruian, came to Ye Sichen to sign the concert contract. After Ye Sichen refused, Qin Ruian left angrily.
The next day, Ye Sichen received a lawyer’s letter from the music company, saying him breaking the treaty. The contract Ye Sichen signed before didn’t specify his duty to hold any concerts or performances. However, the lawyer of the music company asserted emphatically that Ye Sichen had to do his job.
Ye Sichen knew that something was wrong. So, he sent Ken to investigate secretly. Then the results came out quickly.
Ken took a contract to Ye Sichen.
“It was Madam Ye who represented Ye’s family and signed the contract. It is legally valid and they have the right to prosecute if you break the treaty.”
Ye Sichen read the contract again. He was very depressed.
The seal belonged to Ye’s family, which meant Ye Sichen had to fulfil the treaty of performing, producing music and holding concerts. Otherwise, it was a breach of contract.
Ye Linshen was ill and Ye Enchen was not in Modu city. There were only Ye Sichen and Ye Ranni at home.
“Sichen, I did sign the contract. I know that some of the clauses are inequalities. I signed it with a deep consideration since you need to inspire and challenge yourself. I’m doing this for you, and for our family.” Madam Ye popped up in Ye Sichen’s room.
He looked at his mom and frowned.
“I did all these for you. I don’t want you to abandon yourself. The contract I signed with Qin Ruian can make you get back to the top. You must hold the concert to publicize yourself and save your image.”
“Mom, I’m already in my 30s. I’m not as energetic as before.” Ye Sichen said hopelessly.
“You can’t be decadent since you are still young. Don’t let your father and Ye’s family down. Sichen, you are just not good at self-promotion. Others live-broadcast their charity activities to show their compassion to the public. But you do everything in obscurity. No wonder others slander you. They know nothing about you. You have to bear this in your mind: you are part of our family, and your behavior represents our glory.”
Why should he tell the world about his charity activities? He only helped others because he wanted to. He never meant to make a show. All in all, he was like a square peg in a round hole.
Ye Sichen didn’t argue with Madam Ye. He just promised to hold the concert.
Ye’s family would break the treaty if he didn’t follow the contract. Ye Sichen didn’t want that to happen.
He forced himself to make music and MV with Si Nanyin. They also started to prepare for the global tour.
Because of the sequela of burning, fatigue could cause pain all over his body. Besides, insomnia and dreaminess were companied as well. No need to mention he had to use the bathroom many times at night. He was like a ghost, walking around the room and looking at the stars in the sky.
He took a tablet shakily. Then he went to the recording room. He played the music at top volume and started to rehearse. The room had perfect sound insulation to prevent the voice from the babies and servants who were sleeping.
He wouldn’t think of Xia Nuan only when he was busy.
Hordes of screaming, craziness and passion, countless waving glow sticks were not enough to show the spectacular concert. All of them called Ye Sichen too excitedly to stay rational. Too many people fainted because of that. The medical groups had to rescue them from the crowd.
Ye Sichen was in black. He stood at the suspension bridge and rose with it slowly to approach the fans.
All the fans screamed. They waved to call Ye Sichen.
Suddenly, there was a huge bang and the bridge declined sharply. In order to finish the performance and avoid disturbance, Ye Sichen forced himself to calm down. However, there was another crash and then the bridge fell to the ground hard. All the fans screamed since they worried about Ye Sichen.
“Ye Sichen!” Xia Nuan woke up from the nightmare. Her forehead was full of sweat.
“Ye Sichen is in hospital again. He had an accident in the concert.” Ye Enchen spoke slowly.
