Chapter 489 Eldest Brother's Widow 27
Yin Hong's hand froze, and he quickly withdrew it as if he had been burned.
He grabbed his coat and fled as if his life depended on it: "I have things to do at the company today, so I won't be coming back to sleep!"
Haiyao watched his retreating figure, her beautiful dark eyes gradually dimming.
She really wanted to leave this place.
Ling Yi really wanted to kick this clingy guy out of the house.
Pushing him out of the gym, Ling Yi sternly warned Yin Xiao, "Don't come in another step."
Yin Xiao leaned against the door, exuding the same carefree and reckless air he had back when he was a hoodlum: "Did you get in?"
Ling Yi smiled slightly: "Then you can sleep here tonight."
The smile on Yin Xiao's lips froze slightly. He raised his hands and retreated step by step, leaving the place behind.
The man sighed softly as the door slammed shut behind him once again.
How could there be such a heartless woman in this world?
Since he couldn't even see the face of a heartless woman, he could only focus his attention on dealing with men.
This, in turn, doubled Yin Hong's bad luck.
Business partners abscond, allies betray, and subordinates defect.
Yin Hong could hardly believe that such a series of blows would befall him in such a short time.
What he found even more unacceptable was that these attacks were done by his younger brother, who shared the same face as him but had lived like a dog for the past thirty years.
So what about the education he received all these years?
Is there a problem with his education, or is he simply inferior to Yin Xiao by nature?
He dared not think too deeply about such problems, and only tried his best to reverse the decline.
Although the effect was not significant, being able to maintain one's balance under Yin Xiao's relentless attacks was a skill in itself.
But misfortunes never come singly; this is a universal truth.
After Yin Hong hadn't been home for almost a week, he received a message from the family's maid—
Haiyao has gone missing.
The woman who had ventured back to the city with him and saved him time and time again had vanished from his world without a trace.
At that time, Yin Hong was facing another attack from Yin Xiao and had basically lost his power in the company.
The company that Yin Wenbin built and intended for Yin Hong to inherit was turned upside down in a short period of time and became a toy in someone else's hands.
Although Yin Hong is still struggling, almost all that awaits him is a forced takeover of his shares and his withdrawal from the company.
The pain of failure, coupled with the departure of his lover, nearly drove Yin Hong to the brink of collapse.
However, this is not the biggest hole in the room.
As he hurriedly left the company and headed home, a phone call changed his plans.
Yin Wenbin is critically ill!
The father who had held on for his eldest son for so long finally collapsed.
At this moment, Yin Hong no longer cared about Haiyao's disappearance and rushed to the hospital in a panic.
Of course, Yin Xiao no longer cared about Hai Yao's whereabouts; his gaze was also fixed on the hospital.
However, compared to Yin Hong's anxiety, his emotions were slightly different: "They're still alive?"
That deep regret made someone next to him hit him.
Ling Yi glared at Yin Xiao, who dared to say anything without thinking. This man had been abroad for too long and had even lost the excellent traditional virtue of being reserved.
Under her gaze, Yin Xiao decisively changed his words: "Is the vitality so tenacious?"
Ling Yi sighed, pretending not to hear his description of cockroaches: "Let's go see him."
Yin Xiao's brows furrowed instantly: "Why go see him?"
He harbored hostility not only towards Yin Hong, but also towards Yin Wenbin and all people with the surname Yin.
These people are the ones who witnessed Ling Yi and Yin Hong's wedding!
If it weren't for technological limitations, he would have liked to help these people get a new pair of eyes that had never seen Ling Yi in a wedding dress.
“We should get married,” Ling Yi countered.
Yin Hong instantly perked up: "Of course!"
"What? Do you have any constructive suggestions about the ring, wedding dress, wedding ceremony, or flower girls?"
Ling Yi: "..."
She looked at the man who seemed a little silly when marriage was mentioned, and smiled slightly: "My constructive suggestion is that I should at least have the status of being unmarried first."
Yin Xiao: "?"
Ling Yi kindly reminded him, "Have you forgotten that Yin Hong and I are not divorced yet?"
In some ways, Yin Hong was still her legal partner.
The smile on Yin Xiao's lips slowly vanished, replaced by a sinister glint in his eyes. "It really is easier to make you a widow!"
Now that Yin Hong has fallen to this state, there's probably no chance for him to turn things around or have any protagonist's halo anymore.
Why not take this opportunity and kill him?
As he racked his brains for ideas, Ling Yi gave his tie a sharp tug, clearing his eyes once more.
"If you want to be with me for a long time, don't resort to these underhanded tactics," Ling Yi warned. "Solving these problems through normal means won't waste much time."
As a rule-abiding citizen, Ling Yi believes that everything that happens leaves a trace.
Rather than letting Yin Xiao sing "Tears Behind Bars" a few years later, she would prefer to use a gentler method to dissolve the engagement with Yin Hong.
For example, standing at the door of Yin Wenbin's emergency room and making him sign a divorce agreement.
It was reasonable, legal, and the timing was perfect, with a success rate of almost 100%.
Ling Yi felt that her method was infinitely more humane than Yin Xiao's.
At the very least, Yin Hong signed the document while he was still alive.
But for Yin Hong, there was nothing more humiliating in the world.
His wife and brother stood in front of his father's operating room, threatening him to sign divorce papers.
He glared at Ling Yi through gritted teeth, the veins on his forehead throbbing: "What if I don't sign?"
Ling Yi smiled slightly: "Then Mr. Yin's rescue might be a little troublesome."
As a law-abiding citizen, she would never do something like rushing into the emergency room and forcibly pulling out someone's oxygen tube.
However, slightly slowing down the progress of nurses and doctors is not a very difficult thing to do.
"Are you really going to abandon your father's life and death for someone who doesn't belong to you?" Ling Yi gently persuaded Yin Hong: "Sign it. After you sign it, you can still make it in time for your wedding with Hai Yao."
Yin Hong's heart skipped a beat. Re-filial piety? What re-filial piety?
His father isn't dead yet!
but……
He saw the nurse rushing over being "accidentally" blocked in her way by the bodyguards in the distance.
His eyes seemed to be bloodshot as he glared fiercely at Ling Yi and Yin Xiao: "You're very good, you're both very good!"
"If I had known, I shouldn't have agreed to help you in the first place!"
"If I had known, I should have killed you back then, you little beast!"
The two phrases, "If only I had known," perfectly captured the bitterness in his heart.
The male protagonist reluctantly puts down his pen, while the two villains exchange a knowing smile and utter a tacitly understood line:
"But who in the world can know this beforehand?"
