“But Yun Nan and I got married because we fell in love; it has little to do with our marriage engagement. We truly love each other. Yun Nan is the best woman I’ve ever met, and I will love only her for the rest of my life,” Shi Nian uttered. “I have a lot of things to do. and the space in mv heart is very small.
and completely occupied. It’s impossible for my heart to accommodate anyone else, so don’t waste your time on me!”
“You won’t have a chance, because I’m not giving you any. And while I’m at it, let me warn you: don’t even think of using any improper means to sow discord between me and Yun Nan. I don’t care what you do—you can even hurt me—but you can’t hurt Yun Nan!” Shi Nian stated without even looking at Yun Liu.
Yun Liu’s tears finally fell. Shi Nian shut his eyes once more. “No matter what, you’ve done us a favor. I’ll let Yun Nan know, and both she and the Shi family will find a suitable opportunity to return the favor.”
With that, Shi Nian put on his blindfold and didn’t say another word. He didn’t change seats with the other team members, no matter how awkward he felt, because he knew that those who didn’t know the inside story would probably be unable to resist Yun Liu’s wiles. Even just one person saying anything wrong might result in unpredictable consequences. Shi Nian absolutely couldn’t let his brother’s team be ‘contaminated.’
However, he took the matter too lightly, and he also underestimated Yun Liu. A gentle and charming smile appeared on Yun Liu’s face once more when the plane landed, her previous sorrow gone as if it were never there. She followed closely behind Shi Nian, who was wearing sunglasses and had a cold expression, while White Tiger, Dragon, and Gray Wolf spread out in a fan in their usual team formation to protect them.
A group of people swarmed over as soon as they stepped out of the gate. Yun Liu immediately threw herself into Shi Nian’s arms like she was frightened, her face filled with fear. Shi Nian was also shocked by the sudden appearance of a crowd, and when Yun Liu pounced over, he subconsciously hurled her off.
It was a textbook over-the-shoulder throw. White Tiger and Dragon quickly helped the disheveled Yun Liu up, and Gray Wolf stood before Shi Nian, shielding him from the others, and asked him in a low voice, “Are you alright?”
Shi Nian’s expression turned cold as he forcefully slowed his rapid heartbeat and answered, “I’m fine.”
Dragon concernedly asked Yun Liu, “Are you alright? Is everything okay?”
Yun Liu was as white as a sheet, but the media reporters were shoving their microphones at her before she could even shed a tear, shooting out questions at rapidfire speed. “Miss Yun, why were you out traveling with Mr. Shi?” “Is Mr. Shi cheating on his wife and faking being hospitalized?”
“Then is Yun Nan taking over the Shi Corporation to cover up the fact of the upheavals in her marriage?”
“Did the Shi Corporation’s shareholders know about the upheaval in your marriage, Mr. Shi? Is that why they sold their shares, causing the corporation’s stock price to plummet?”
“Miss Yun, rumors are that you and Mr. Shi were childhood sweethearts. Have you two finally gotten together despite all odds?”
“Yun Nan and Mr. Shi have only been married for a very short period of time.
Miss Yun, is it possible that Yun Nan was actually the interloper in your and Mr. Shi’s relationship?”
Yun Liu cried but didn’t speak. White Tiger and Dragon looked at each other. The way things were going was completely beyond their expectations. They had no experience dealing with media reporters, and even though they could tell that these questions were all malicious, they didn’t know how to answer them.
They looked to Gray Wolf for help. Gray Wolf’s face looked as cold as if it were sculpted out of ice. Shi Nian’s hand slowly rested on Gray Wolf’s shoulder as he walked out from behind him. His eyes swept across the crowd like a hawk’s. His gaze was intense, even through the sunglasses, and everyone couldn’t help but take a step back as he stepped forward.
“You guys got the wrong person,” Shi Nian uttered coldly. “I’m not Shi Nian. I’m his brother! You guys are smearing my brother so indiscriminately while he’s still lying on the hospital bed, so I guess I can sue you all for slander, right?” ‘ What?!’ the media reporters thought and stared at each other.
Shi Nian turned his head to glance at Yun Liu and said impassively, “I’m sorry. I didn’t expect to cause you to be involved in a scandal. If you want to sue any of them, we can all be your witnesses.”
White Tiger snapped back to his senses and coolly flashed his military ID while stating, “You guys dare to spread rumors about us? Shouldn’t you go back and consult your supervisors first?”
The crowd retreated in unison, making way for Shi Nian’s group. Shi Nian grimly walked through the crowd and strode out. One of the media reporters cried out, “Miss Yun, what should we do?”
Yun Liu turned around and viciously glared at him before quickly following after Shi Nian. “Shi Nian, I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I—I didn’t expect this to happen. It’s all my fault. There’s no helping it; things like this are inevitable when you’re in the entertainment industry,” Yun Liu explained pitifully.
White Tiger couldn’t bear seeing her like that and hurriedly reassured her, “It’s fine, it’s fine. It’s just a small matter.”
Shi Nian didn’t turn around. “Our itinerary was decided ad hoc,” he said detachedly.. “They couldn’t have been waiting for you here every day, could they?”
