After Breaking Up, I Married the Dying Tycoon in a Flash
Chapter 135: I’ll Die With You

Chapter 135: Chapter 135: I’ll Die With You

This time, Li Sihe remained silent for a long time.

The eagerness in Su Youxue’s eyes grew even more intense; she clearly felt triumphant, a smile deepening on her face as she said word by word, "Just give up. How could Shen Jinci let Bian Yue go to you?"

Yet, the next moment, she heard Li Sihe’s light chuckle.

The cool night rain, and the man’s voice even cooler and gentler; he said nonchalantly, "People can divorce even after they get married."

Su Youxue’s pupils dilated, immense despair overtook her.

She suddenly realized how ridiculous her previous smugness was; those moments she thought had moved Li Sihe, in reality, the man had been watching with a cold eye from the beginning to the end.

He was too calm.

Calmly watching her go mad, calmly watching her breakdown, without so much as a sidelong glance...

When Bian Yue returned to the set, Yang Shan and Yao Yimin had finished eating hotpot and packed it up. Seeing Bian Yue, Yang Shan rushed over anxiously and asked, "Bian Yue, are you okay?"

"I’m fine. Why haven’t you guys gone back yet?"

"When you were gone just now..." Yao Yimin paused, her lips tight, and said, "A man named Kang Yu came looking for you."

Bian Yue was stunned, "Then what?"

"He just happened to see you leave with Su Youxue, then he asked us if the opposite side was Fengcheng Group’s business, and we said yes, and then, Kang Yu said to let you finish up and rest early, he’ll come to find you tomorrow," recounted Yao Yimin, looking at Bian Yue anxiously, "Bian Yue, there’s no issue with this, right?"

"It’s fine..." Bian Yue patted Yao Yimin on the shoulder: "It’s getting late; I’ll drive, let’s go back to the hotel together."

...

Bian Yue parked the car under the hotel, said farewell to Yao Yimin and Yang Shan, and then headed straight for the elevator.

As soon as she entered the elevator, she dialed Shen Jinci’s number.

The phone rang for a long time but there was no answer.

Bian Yue grew anxious, hung up and redialed; this time, after about ten seconds, Shen Jinci picked up the call.

Bian Yue began, her voice calm and deep, "Tonight, Su Youxue came to find me, saying that Li Sihe had some health issues, and I couldn’t just stand by and do nothing, so I helped out a bit, but as soon as he got better, I left. That’s all that happened."

On the other end, a lengthy silence.

Bian Yue thought it was the elevator signal that was poor.

As the elevator doors opened, Bian Yue hurried out, her voice no longer calm but tinged with unease, "Jinci, did you hear what I said?"

"Mhm."

Bian Yue’s mind eased a bit, and then she frowned, "Then why didn’t you say anything?"

"I don’t know what to say over the phone," Shen Jinci paused, then in a low voice, "Yueyue, I’m waiting for you in your room."

Bian Yue’s heart tightened, "How did you get here?"

From downtown to the suburbs, it would take at least two to three hours.

"I heard from Kang Yu that there was trouble here, so I took a private plane. We have the whole night, we can talk properly." His voice betrayed no anger, it even sounded gentle and calm, but Bian Yue’s heart was still in turmoil.

She frowned and gripped her phone tightly, asking, "Jinci, are you angry?"

"No."

Bian Yue wasn’t sure how much truth there was in his words.

Looking at the hotel’s entrance just steps away, she knew that evasion wouldn’t solve anything, so she said, "I’m at the door now, wait for me to come in, we’ll talk."

After saying that, she hung up the phone.

Bian Yue’s hand reached for the doorknob, about to input the password when the door suddenly opened from inside.

Their eyes met; Bian Yue tilted her head up, looking at the indifferent man in front of her — he still had an unapproachable air of purity about him, except his gaze held more obsession and darkness.

"Shen..."

Bian Yue managed only to get a word out before Shen Jinci clasped her waist and yanked her into the room, leaning in without hesitation to kiss her lips, no hint of reluctance.

As their lips and teeth intertwined, Bian Yue’s back touched the wooden frame in the foyer, and a moment of discomfort passed, the man’s hand subtly protected her waist, keeping a distance from the frame.

Despite being on the verge of losing control, he still feared hurting her.

Bian Yue’s heart softened; she wrapped her arms around Shen Jinci’s neck, responding actively.

Their kiss deepened, more intimate and ambiguous.

The atmosphere heated up inch by inch; Bian Yue’s face flushed, but Shen Jinci slowly opened his eyes, clear and distinct.

He quietly let go of Bian Yue, looking at the bewilderment in the girl’s eyes, his voice hoarse, "Is Li Sihe alright?"

Bian Yue felt like she had been doused with cold water; she knew matters were not yet resolved, so she also calmed down, "He’s fine, Jinci, I know I should have informed you in advance, but it was an emergency, and I really didn’t think to contact you."

"Yueyue, when will it be?"

"When will what be?" Bian Yue looked at Shen Jinci puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Shen Jinci’s eyes reddened slightly, his slender fingers traced Bian Yue’s temples, he asked in a soft voice, "When, at such critical moments, when you feel it’s urgent, can you think to contact me first?"

Bian Yue instantly understood what Shen Jinci really minded.

"But..." Bian Yue frowned, "I don’t want to trouble you, and it’s my own business, I can handle it myself, Jinci, even though we’re married, I still hope we can be independent of each other."

"Of course, you’re free, you can do whatever you want, that will never change, but Bian Yue, at the very least, when you face tricky problems, shouldn’t I, as your husband, have the fundamental right to know?"

Bian Yue’s tension eased from her brow, she sincerely said, "I’m sorry, next time I will contact you first."

"Good, then we’ve reached a consensus on the first issue, now onto the second one."

Bian Yue fixed her gaze on Shen Jinci, asking for guidance, "The second issue... what is it?"

"How important is Li Sihe to you?"

Such a blunt question, so blunt that Bian Yue’s complexion changed slightly.

She clenched her fist, looking at Shen Jinci, struggling to maintain composure, "If I say, he’s just a stranger, would you believe that?"

"I wouldn’t believe it, and I know, almost 7 years of you both being together day and night, he wouldn’t be just a stranger in your eyes."

Shen Jinci thought, he must be sick, otherwise, why he would be acting like a madman, losing his rationality, obsessively giving Bian Yue a hard time.

He asked her, "Bian Yue, if only one of us, me or Li Sihe, could live, who would you wish it to be?"

Shen Jinci believed Bian Yue wouldn’t answer.

But after a brief silence, Bian Yue reached out to embrace him; she said, "Shen Jinci, their lives shouldn’t be decided by me, so I say I don’t know. But I’m certain, if you died, I would be willing to die with you."
