"Hello..." Before he finished speaking, Xing Feng's anxious voice was heard from the other side.

"Brother, brother...when will you come back?" Xing Feng asked anxiously.

"Is there something wrong?" Even when facing big problems, Tan Yichen never wavered in his composure.

"Your wife is going to be taken away by Lu Tianming!" Xing Feng shouted loudly on the other end of the phone, as if the situation was serious.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Tan Yichen's tone sounded a little excited, as if he suddenly jumped up from his chair.

"Starting from the day after you left, Lu Tianming made an appointment to meet Mu Ziyan every day. Today, Mu Ziyan even went to Lu Tianming's house!" Before Xing Feng could finish his words, Tan Yichen slammed his phone to the ground.

There was anger in his eyes and a heaviness in his chest.

Tan Yichen eagerly knocked on Long Zhaoxian's study door and strode in. Seeing this, Long Zhaoxian vaguely guessed Tan Yichen's intention.

"Yichen, it's so late, is there something wrong?" He asked slowly.

"Master, what do you think about what I told you?" Tan Yichen was eager to know the answer at this moment.

"Yi Chen, why do you have to marry her? Isn't Yaqi good enough?" Long Zhaoxian had already expressed his feelings.

"I only treat Yaqi as my sister!" he said firmly.

"What if I don't agree?" Long Zhaoxian asked tentatively.

Tan Yichen had never thought of this situation. He didn't want to disobey his master. He still wanted to live in peace with him out of gratitude. But now, he was like a proud lion. No one could stop him, and no one could hinder his ideas!

"Then I am willing to give up everything I have now for her! I will give it all back to you!" The firm look in his eyes surprised Long Zhaoxian.

The man who had been raised like his own son since childhood is now breaking up with him for a woman.

He had never seen Tan Yichen so persistent and stubborn about anything. His eyes were filled with disappointment as he faced Tan Yichen's unyielding spirit.

"Am I not as important as a woman? Without my careful care and raising for so many years, you might have become a beggar or even passed away. Do you know how many enemies your father has? If I hadn't been by your side to protect you, would you have been able to start your career so peacefully and have everything go smoothly?" Long Zhaoxian's words were full of affection and heartache. His whole body was trembling and his face was as pale as paper. He was deeply hurt by Tan Yichen's words, as if all the strength in his body had been drained away.

Tan Yichen was powerless to refute and stood there stiffly.

The air was deathly silent, with only the sound of the two people's angry breathing.

Tan Yichen still had a pleading look in his eyes: "Master, in all these years, have you never wondered why I haven't set foot here for five years?"

"This place is like a cage, which not only restrains my body, but also makes my mind dim. I am lost in the darkness, unable to find the lost light, let alone the direction of my life. However, it was the moment I met her that all my troubles disappeared like smoke in the wind, and my heart found its direction again. She, like the lily in my heart, lit up the pure land in my heart." Tan Yichen spoke every word very clearly.

Long Zhaoxian was deeply shocked by his words. A woman he had never met before had such extraordinary charm that she could completely attract his mind and make him give up everything for her and fall in love with her. What kind of magical power was this that made Long Zhaoxian marvel at it and feel it was mysterious and incredible.

Long Zhaoxian stumbled and almost fell. Tan Yichen rushed over to support him, but Mr. Long Zhao shook his hand away.

"Master..."

With his eyes tightly closed and his hands shaking, he held onto the table. A gesture of shutting up made Tan Yichen stop all his explanations.

Another fruitless conversation.

Tan Yichen was already anxious, like an ant on a hot pot. He really had no better way to negotiate with his master. From the moment he stepped into this family, he had seen through his master's intentions. He was deeply confused, but he couldn't express it, so he could only bear the pressure silently. Wasn't what he did obvious enough?

Yaqi, the position that will never change in his heart, can only be that of a younger sister.

Thinking of what Xing Feng told him today, his heart had already flown back to the country, wanting to find out the truth. In his heart, Mu Ziyan was a self-respecting person and would never easily agree to Lu Tianming. She should also have a secret, like Mu Yunting? Accepting a political marriage!

Like Mu Yunting? His heart suddenly trembled. If he was like Lu Tianming, and insisted on pursuing Mu Ziyan, would she agree happily? Tan Yichen paced in the room, his heart was repeatedly tangled, and his thoughts were surging back and forth like a whirlpool. Whenever his thoughts touched her, he was like being bound by an invisible net and could not function normally.

He had the best answer in his mind... just like Mu Yunting. This time, Tan Yichen was convinced that this strategy was his and it was already in his pocket. His determination was as firm as a rock and could not be shaken. He was determined to win.

The next morning, Lu Dehai called and Long Zhaoxian was so angry that he smashed the phone.

He never expected that this girl named Mu Ziyan would be so courageous that she immediately rejected her marriage with Lu Tianming at Lu Dehai's house. Mu Ziyan's decisive action undoubtedly impressed Long Zhaoxian. He thought that this might be something that Yichen liked about her. Sighing and helpless, he just wanted to find a good home for Yaqi. After he passed away, she would still have someone reliable to take care of her and protect her. After careful consideration, Tan Yichen was undoubtedly the best candidate.

But what a trick of fate.

Long Zhaoxian stood alone in front of the window, looking at Yaqi and Tan Yichen outside the window. When Yaqi was with Tan Yichen, her face was always filled with the most beautiful smile. Tan Yichen, on the other hand, always looked unhappy. The two people looked so well matched. He had a deep admiration for them. The tenderness and persistence in their eyes seemed to be ruthlessly smashed in front of his eyes, destroying his beliefs bit by bit. At this moment, he felt dizzy.

He returned to his desk and picked up the old photo again. He gently stroked the person in the photo, tears in his eyes, but a smile on his lips, his love overflowing.

He whispered, "I lost in the end, and I compromised with you." There was a slight tremor in his voice, but also a deep sense of helplessness and acceptance.

Tell the servants to call Tan Yichen into the house!

When he heard that his master wanted to summon him for something, Tan Yichen immediately flew to the study.

He stopped at the door, slightly out of breath. He closed his eyes for a moment and adjusted his mood. The negotiations over the past few days had reached a point of no return, and he felt exhausted! If the master still refused to give in today, he was ready to give up everything and marry the one he loved.
