Chapter 23: Song Yichen Gets Jealous

    Yin Yan arrived at the hotel Shen Xingyang had mentioned. As soon as he entered, someone approached him and led him towards a room.

    But just as the door opened, someone behind him covered his mouth. The door slammed shut, and several people appeared out of nowhere, tying up his hands and feet.

    After an unknown amount of time, the door reopened. Yin Yan couldn’t believe it – the person who had tied him up was actually Shen Xingyang.

    “Xingyang… you…”

    Shen Xingyang actually dared to lay a hand on him. He had thought Shen Xingyang might resent him, but he never imagined he would actually do this.

    Shen Xingyang knelt down, looking at Yin Yan with cold eyes.

    “Yin Yan, didn’t you want to use photos to threaten me? Now that I’m here, what do you want to say? I’m listening.”

    Thinking of Yin Yan’s actions in his past life, Shen Xingyang couldn’t wait to kill the person in front of him, but he knew that Yin Yan wasn’t the mastermind. He had to be patient.

    “Xingyang, I told you, I didn’t want to threaten you. I just wanted to see you…”

    “I gave you the chance, but since you won’t talk, I’ll do it myself.”

    Shen Xingyang finished speaking and looked at the person beside him, who nodded and took Yin Yan’s phone.

    “Xingyang, even if you didn’t take it, I would have deleted them. Why do you have to go this far?”

    Shen Xingyang played with the phone for a while, but couldn’t unlock it, so he threw it to the person beside him.

    Then he pulled down his collar a little, revealing a small scar: “I’ve already removed this tattoo. You tricked me into getting these two letters when I was ignorant. Now that things have come to this, do you think I’m still stupid enough to let you deceive me?”

    Shen Xingyang finished speaking and pulled his collar back up.

    “You’ve been with me for many years, and I remember that kindness, which is why I helped you get to where you are today. Don’t forget what you relied on to get everything you have. I’ll consider those past grievances over. Whether you want to be a celebrity or find another path, I will always help you. But if you dare to use those dirty tricks again, even my brother can’t save you.”

    Now that Shen Xingyang had broken up, he couldn’t be bothered to pretend anymore. Now that things had reached this point, he wasn’t afraid that Yin Yan would tell Shen Jinjue what he had done.

    After all, as the victim, no one would believe Yin Yan. Wasn’t the whole point of him pretending to be nice to Yin Yan all along to achieve this effect?

    Now, he couldn’t bear it for even a second longer, and there was no need to endure it anymore.

    “Erase his tattoo, and use this. That tattoo is deep, so you’ll have to cut deep.”

    Shen Xingyang threw the knife on the ground, finished speaking, and turned to leave.

    He hadn’t even settled the score with Yin Yan for what he did last time, and this time, he wasn’t just here to give Yin Yan a warning.

    He was going to teach Yin Yan a lesson, or else Yin Yan would really treat him like a pushover.

    “Xingyang, about what happened last time, it was my fault, I shouldn’t have treated you like that. You can do whatever you want, but I want to keep this tattoo.”

    Yin Yan raised his head, looking at Shen Xingyang pleadingly. This was the only connection he had with Shen Xingyang.

    Shen Xingyang paused for a moment but ignored him and continued to let the others do their work.

    The people behind him started to grab Yin Yan, preparing to cut off the two letters on his body.

    It must have been really painful, because Shen Xingyang heard Yin Yan’s screams of pain. He smiled. This was nothing yet.

    If Yin Yan followed the same path as in his past life, he would make both brothers wish they were dead.

    Shen Xingyang returned to the hospital and went to find Song Yichen immediately.

    Song Yichen was lying alone in bed, facing away from him, looking a bit aggrieved.

    “Doctor Song.”

    “What are you doing here? Go find Yin Yan.”

    Song Yichen’s tone was very cold, just like his attitude towards him when he first arrived at Song Manor.

    “Okay, I’ll go outside. You rest well.”

    Shen Xingyang said, walking out and remembering to close the door.

    Hearing the door closing, Song Yichen couldn’t help but get up, only to find that Shen Xingyang had really left.

    “Shen Xingyang.”

    Song Yichen kicked the blanket to the side in frustration. After thinking for a while, he got up and walked to the door, trying to hear if there were any sounds outside.

    Suddenly, he heard rapid footsteps, and before he could get back to bed, the door was pushed open violently. With a “bang,” the door slammed into him, causing a wave of dizziness.

    When he turned his head and saw that it was Gu Ze, he got even angrier.

    “Gu Ze.”

    Gu Ze looked confused. “Brother, what were you doing by the door?”

    Gu Ze walked forward to check Song Yichen’s injuries, but Song Yichen put his hand on his shoulder, pushing him to the side.

    “Brother.”

    Gu Ze was a little scared by Song Yichen’s fierce look.

    But Song Yichen led him to the corner, looked at the door, and whispered, “Is Shen Xingyang outside?”

    Gu Ze was stunned. Song Yichen had dragged him to the corner just to ask this? He thought Song Yichen was going to hit him.

    “I’m asking you something.”

    Song Yichen poked Gu Ze hard, looking impatient.

    Gu Ze thought for a moment and looked at Song Yichen, who was full of expectation. “Didn’t notice.”

    “Then why aren’t you going to look?”

    This damn thing, sure enough, he couldn’t rely on Gu Ze. If he relied on Gu Ze’s ideas, he would probably end up alone for the rest of his life.

    Gu Ze said “Oh” and went to look outside, then shook his head at Song Yichen.

    “You can leave.”

    Song Yichen returned to bed dejectedly and covered himself with the blanket.

    “Shen Xingyang, you heartless thing, leaving as soon as you say so.”

    Song Yichen thought, feeling even more frustrated, and began to wonder if his attitude towards Shen Xingyang had been too harsh just now.

    “Brother, you’re not crying, are you?”

    Gu Ze leaned forward to look at Song Yichen.

    Song Yichen couldn’t take it anymore and threw a pillow at him.

    “Get out.”

    Gu Ze caught the pillow and put it back in place.

    “Then I’ll go.”

    Gu Ze said, slowly backing out. As soon as he went out, he turned the corner and sat down next to Shen Xingyang.

    “Shen Xingyang, why aren’t you going in? What are you doing sitting outside?”

    Gu Ze lied to Song Yichen. He saw Shen Xingyang at the door but didn’t tell Song Yichen.

    Song Yichen had suppressed him for so long, what was wrong with him tricking him once?

    Shen Xingyang put down his phone. “Doctor Song is angry and doesn’t want to see me.”

    Gu Ze suppressed a laugh. This Shen Xingyang was so straightforward! He didn’t understand Song Yichen’s stubbornness. He actually believed it when Song Yichen said he didn’t want to see him.

    Song Yichen was done for. He was so stubborn, yet he fell in love with the straightforward Shen Xingyang.

    And Shen Xingyang was so clueless. Although he had been in love before, he didn’t understand anything. He didn’t know how he had been in a relationship with Yin Yan for so many years.

    “Shen Xingyang, look, my brother fought with Yin Yan like this for you and even got punished. Yet you left my brother to go find Yin Yan. Anyone would be angry, right?”

    Shen Xingyang frowned. How could he not know? He knew he had gone too far, but he didn’t regret it.

    Now he just wanted Song Yichen to stop being so angry, but he didn’t know what to do.

    “Then what should I do?”

    Shen Xingyang leaned closer, as humbly as a student listening to a teacher’s lecture.

    “Just keep bothering him. No matter what he says, just stay in his ward. Eventually, he’ll get annoyed and stop being angry.”

    Shen Xingyang’s face twitched, looking incredulous. “Will that really work?”

    Gu Ze nodded solemnly. “Shen Xingyang, I’m Song Yichen’s cousin and the disciple he personally trained. No one knows him better than I do.”

    Hearing this, Shen Xingyang actually started to think seriously.

    Gu Ze didn’t wait for him to consider and pushed Shen Xingyang towards the ward.

    Shen Xingyang looked at Song Yichen, who turned to look at him, and forced a smile.
