Su Yanyan eventually found Xing Yuyun in the staircase.

At that moment, his figure was shrouded in the smell of cigarettes. Numerous cigarette butts were scattered around his feet. He cast an indifferent glance at her before continuing to smoke.

“Brother Yuyun.” Su Yanyan held back her anger and softly asked, “What happened? Is there a problem with the company?”

“Let’s cancel the engagement.”

Upon hearing his words, Su Yanyan’s face changed dramatically, “What did you say?”

Xing Yuyun looked at her and reiterated word by word, “I said, let’s cancel the engagement.”

“Why!”

“…” Xing Yuyun didn’t respond.

Su Yanyan grabbed his arm and began to apologize, “Brother Xing, I’m sorry, I admit that it was my fault for the photo incident. I swear I will never do such a thing again. Please forgive me this time. Our engagement banquet is in just over twenty days, the invitations have already been sent out, the hotel is booked, and I’ve already chosen the wedding dress…”

“I can handle all of this.” Xing Yuyun’s voice was cold.

Looking at Xing Yuyun’s cold face, Su Yanyan realized that he was serious.

The image of Su Wanwan popped into her mind, along with how she looked just now…

Jealousy burst out like fireworks. She began making a string of accusations, “Is it because of Su Wanwan? Did you go find her earlier? You regretted after she came back, right? You had a private meeting with her earlier! Did you… Did you kiss…”

“It has nothing to do with her.” Xing Yuyun interrupted impatiently.

“I knew it!” Su Yanyan screamed, “Ever since she returned to China, you’ve been ignoring me! If it wasn’t for her visiting Grandpa at the hospital today, you wouldn’t have come, would you? Su Wanwan is indeed impressive, she managed to captivate your heart the moment she returned. But do you know what she said about you? She said you’re like a dog, shamelessly clinging to her!”

“Shut up!” Xing Yuyun cut her off sharply, terror reflected in his eyes.

The image of Huo Jingshen and Su Wanwan together kept replaying in his mind. The embarrassment, the humiliation, and the blow to his masculinity were too much for him to accept as a man.

“She’s nothing more than an illegitimate girl, just like her mother, they’re both no good! She got into fights in junior high school and even went to the station. She and Mo Weiyi hung around in bars with men when they were only teenagers, their reputations are completely ruined…”

“Su Yanyan!”

She suddenly felt a sharp pain in her wrist.

“Do you know what the biggest difference is between you and Su Wanwan?” Xing Yuyun gripped her wrist, his eyes looking ruthless, “When I was engaged to her, we never even held hands. But you, you secretly drugged me, seduced me to have sex with you. Tell me, aren’t you cheap compared to her?”

Su Yanyan shuddered violently.

Did he know?

Did he know everything?

“That glass of wine on that night, it was spiked, wasn’t it?” Upon seeing her guilty face, Xing Yuyun let out a sarcastic laugh.

If it weren’t for everything lining up perfectly, he wouldn’t have gone to the hospital that night for a checkup.

“Cancel the engagement, immediately.” He repeated once more.

Cancel?

Su Yanyan was both aggrieved and angry, “Then why did you agree to be engaged with me in the first place? Why did you…”

“The thing I hate the most is being manipulated, especially by shameless women like you! If it weren’t for your father pressuring my grandfather, do you think I would’ve agreed to be engaged to a cheap woman like you?” After saying this, Xing Yuyun turned and walked away.

In the hospital ward.

Jiang Yi checked the time, her brows furrowed in worry.

Yanyan…

She had been gone for such a long time, why hadn’t she come back?

Yuyun was not here either.

“Grandpa, it’s getting late. I’ll help you downstairs.” said Su Wanwan.

On the wheelchair, Su Xueqin sat with a serious look on his face, clearly still angry.

“Dad, Yanyan and Yuyun should be back soon.” As Jiang Yi’s words fell, the room door opened, and Su Yanyan walked in, looking dazed and lost.

Jiang Yi quickly got up, “Yanyan, where’s Yuyun?”

With a blank expression, Su Yanyan took a while before managing to mutter, “He, he said something came up at the company.”

“Hmph!” Su Xueqin let out a cold huff.

Seeing the old man’s displeasure, Jiang Yi quickly explained, “There must have been an issue at the company. Yuyun just became the general manager, it’s understandable. I was wondering why he left in such a hurry earlier. Yang, come and help Wanwan with the wheelchair.”

“Yes, madam.”

Once everyone had left the room, Jiang Yi looked at her daughter.

“Yanyan, what exactly is going on with Yuyun? After so much effort to improve the old man’s mood, he suddenly leaves without a word?”

For Su Xueqin’s discharge today, she had specifically asked her daughter to invite Xing Yuyun to soften the old man’s heart, to make amends. But he just left like that?

Su Yanyan burst into tears,” Brother Yuyun… Brother Yuyun… he….”
