CEO's Secret Pet: Woman, You Can't Escape Even If You Have Wings
Chapter 294 Escape from Marriage
Shen Jingyan bit her lip hard and walked upstairs angrily. Her footsteps rang on the stairs, and every step was filled with reluctance and helplessness. The living room was silent again, and only Jiang Xiyan was sitting alone on the sofa, holding a wine glass in his hand, looking ahead with empty eyes.
Shen Jingyan returned to the room and slammed the door shut. She leaned against the door, tears streaming down her cheeks. She was angry and helpless, not knowing how to get rid of Jiang Xiyan's entanglement.
Jiang Xiyan sat on the sofa downstairs, drinking red wine. His eyes were full of complex emotions, including anger, unwillingness, and a trace of pain that was not easily detected. He didn't understand why Shen Jingyan couldn't accept him, and why her heart was all given to Lin Yu.
After a while, Jiang Xiyan put down his wine glass and stood up. He walked to the stairs and looked up at the direction of Shen Jingyan's room. He wanted to go up to her and have a good talk with her again, but he was afraid of causing another conflict.
Just when Jiang Xiyan was hesitating, his cell phone suddenly rang. He took out his cell phone and saw that it was a call from an important business partner. Jiang Xiyan took a deep breath, adjusted his mood, and answered the phone.
"Mr. Jiang, there is an urgent matter that I need to discuss with you..." The anxious voice of the partner came from the other end of the phone. While listening to the phone, Jiang Xiyan walked to the study and temporarily put Shen Jingyan's matter aside.
In the center of a bustling city, a magnificent church stands. The sun shines through the stained glass windows, reflecting the luxury and solemnity of the room. Today is the wedding of Lin Xi, the daughter of the Lin family, and Xiao Di Yu, the young master of the Xiao family.
Lin Xi was wearing a snow-white custom-made wedding dress, with hand-sewn lace and sparkling diamonds embellishing the hem. She should have been the most beautiful bride in the world, but at this moment, she was sitting in front of the mirror in the dressing room, her face full of sorrow and anxiety.
She stared at herself in the mirror with empty eyes, and her exquisite makeup could not cover up the pain in her heart. Lin Xi knew that this wedding was not what she wanted. She and Xiao Di Yu were just a combination of family interests, and there was no love between them. And in her heart, there was always another person living - Ye Chen.
"Absolutely not! I will never marry that guy Xiao Di Yu!" Lin Xi tightly grasped a handful of red envelopes and walked out the door with an angry face. As she walked, she shouted angrily: "Come on, take these red envelopes and distribute them to everyone!"
As soon as the voice fell, a woman in a pink bridesmaid dress ran over in a hurry. She carefully took the full red envelope from Lin Xi's hand, then turned around and began to distribute it to the people around her. While everyone was happily scrambling for the red envelopes, Lin Xi quietly moved her feet and retreated little by little.
She nimbly moved among the crowd, skillfully avoiding the sight of others. After a while, she successfully arrived near the door. While no one was paying attention to her, Lin Xi turned around suddenly and slipped away from the back door like an agile rabbit.
Since Ye Chen suffered a brutal beating from Xiao Di Yu last time, he had to rest in the hospital. That period was undoubtedly a painful and long torment for him, but it also became the fuse for his determination to rise up in his heart.
After a whole week of recuperation and treatment, Ye Chen was finally able to recover and be discharged from the hospital. However, from the moment he stepped out of the hospital gate, the anger and unwillingness in his heart were like a burning flame that could not be extinguished. He secretly made up his mind to make the company he founded grow rapidly, not only to surpass Xiao Diyu's company, but also to leave it far behind!
So, in the following days, Ye Chen began a secret plan that was unknown to others. He used his business wisdom, personal connections and keen market insight accumulated over the years to carefully plan every move.
In this war without gunpowder, Ye Chen took a series of covert actions. He quietly acquired two companies under the Xiao family through various means. The whole process was as silent as a ghost in the dark night. Xiao Diyu was unaware of all this and was still immersed in the illusion of self-satisfaction.
Just today, Ye Chen appeared in the most luxurious Longquan Club in the city in a well-tailored suit. Here, he was about to sign an important contract with another company of the Xiao family. Once this contract came into effect, the company that originally belonged to the Xiao family would soon change hands and be under the name of Ye Chen.
At this moment, Ye Chen was smiling, looking relaxed and confident, but only he knew how much effort and hard work he had put in to get to this point...
At this moment, Ye Chen walked out of the extremely luxurious Longquan Club with a group of well-trained and strong bodyguards. He was tall and straight, with steady steps, and exuded a strong and confident aura in every gesture.
Walking to the luxury car parked at the door, Ye Chen was about to reach out to open the door shining with metallic luster, and then get in the car and leave this place gracefully. However, just as he was about to complete this action, suddenly, a figure rushed towards him like an arrow from a bow.
As the incident happened suddenly, Ye Chen was caught off guard and was slightly shaken by the impact. He frowned, a hint of displeasure appeared on his face, and he shouted angrily: "What's going on? Don't you look at the road when you walk?"
Hearing Ye Chen's rebuke, the reckless offender stopped in his tracks, panting, bowing his head and apologizing repeatedly: "I'm sorry! I'm so sorry..."
Ye Chen looked carefully and saw that the person standing in front of him was Lin Xi. At this moment, she was wearing a wedding dress as white as snow, and she was as beautiful as a fairy, but her expression seemed very flustered.
It turned out that Lin Xi had just rushed out of the magnificent luxury hotel. Not long after, the people in the hotel discovered that she was missing, so a large group of people began to search and chase her in a hurry.
Lin Xi ran all the way as if she was desperate, as if there was a flood beast chasing her. She didn't know how long she had been running until she was exhausted and her legs were weak. Just when she was about to collapse, she bumped into someone.
When she finally managed to steady herself and looked up to see who was blocking her way, she was surprised to find that the person in front of her was Ye Chen. For a moment, she widened her eyes and shouted in astonishment, "Ye Chen, why is it you?"
Ye Chen was also surprised. He looked Lin Xi up and down, and his eyes finally fell on her exquisite and gorgeous white wedding dress. After a moment of silence, he asked softly, "Are you... going to marry Xiao Di Yu?"
Facing Ye Chen's question, Lin Xi's eyes instantly became moist. She bit her lip, shook her head vigorously, and choked up as she replied, "I won't marry him, Ye... Ye Chen, please, take me away!"
"Lin Xi, what happened to you?" Ye Chen was shocked. He saw Lin Xi standing there quietly in a wedding dress as white as snow, like a blooming lily. At this moment, the breeze blew gently, blowing Lin Xi's veil. The sun shone on her body, as if she was covered with a layer of golden light. Ye Chen frowned, his eyes full of confusion and worry, "Why are you here in a wedding dress?"
"Xiao Diyu was afraid of accidents, so he told my dad to move up the wedding. Today is my wedding with him!" Lin Xi's voice trembled slightly, and her eyes revealed complex emotions. The surrounding flowers swayed gently in the breeze, as if they were also surprised by the sudden news.
"What?" Ye Chen heard this, a flash of surprise and anger in his eyes, his fists clenched unconsciously, and veins on the back of his hands popped out. "Today? How could it be so sudden!" His voice rose a few notes, and his tone was full of disbelief. The fountain not far away was gurgling, and the sound of water seemed particularly clear in this tense atmosphere.
Ye Chen looked at Lin Xi's tearful eyes, and felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if being pricked by countless needles. His eyes became extremely firm, and he answered without hesitation: "Okay, I'll take you away!" His words echoed in the air like a vow. A few fallen leaves drifted in the wind, as if they were also sighing for their fate.
Just as Ye Chen was about to leave with Lin Xi, there was a noisy sound of footsteps and shouts not far away. Xiao Diyu came hurriedly with a group of people, his face was terribly gloomy, and his eyes were burning with anger. At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds, as if a storm was about to come, adding a bit of depression to the already tense atmosphere.
"Lin Xi! How dare you run away from marriage!" Xiao Di Yu roared. He approached step by step, exuding a strong sense of oppression. The air around him seemed to become heavy because of his anger, and the leaves on the roadside rustled in the wind, as if they were worried about the conflict that was about to break out.
Lin Xi held Ye Chen's arm tightly, her body trembling slightly. Ye Chen protected Lin Xi behind him and met Xiao Di Yu's gaze without fear. They stood on an ancient stone road, and some tender green grass grew in the cracks of the stone, swaying gently in the breeze.
"Xiao Diyu, if Lin Xi doesn't want to marry you, why force her?" Ye Chen said coldly. His voice seemed particularly clear in this silent environment, as if it carried a firm strength.
Xiao Diyu laughed in anger: "You think you can take her away? She must come back with me today to complete the wedding."
Behind him was a group of people in black suits, their faces expressionless, like silent sculptures, giving people a strong sense of oppression. On an ancient building nearby, a few pigeons were startled by the sudden noise and flew into the sky with flapping wings.
