Han Yifeng's expression looked increasingly morose. Huang Ziyao and Han Yu had also kept calling to ask about the progress on the whole ordeal, yet he did not know how to answer them.

He studied the phone screen that had already dimmed on his table, his eyes dark. He sat there for a long time without moving until he heard Secretary Wang call out to him, "CEO Han, what do we do? These scandals cannot be suppressed anymore. Yueying is being forced to make Miss Xinyi temporarily leave the company. I heard that CEO Deng even collapsed from being angered by this..."

Secretary Wang looked a little uneasily at Han Yifeng. "The old Chairman and Madam have already called many times to ask about the situation and Xinyi, but your phone has been switched off. They're very worried."

Han Yifeng fell silent for a long time before finally answering, "Go home first. I'd like to be alone."

"CEO Han, but Miss Xinyi... She..."

"You go home first. I'll call you if I need anything." Han Yifeng propped his head up with one hand with waning interest. Then, he picked up the remote control and switched the television off. When Secretary Wang saw his boss react that way, he dared not speak further and retreated.

However, Secretary Wang had just walked to the entrance of the villa when he saw Xi Xinyi rushing in.

"Miss Xinyi!" Secretary Wang greeted nervously.

Xi Xinyi rushed up and said anxiously, "Secretary Wang? Where's Yifeng? Is Yifeng inside?"

"CEO Han is in the living room, Miss Xinyi..."

Before Secretary Wang could finish, Xi Xinyi had already rushed in.

"Yifeng!"

Indeed, she saw Yifeng in the living room, sitting on the sofa looking down. His expression was grim. Xi Xinyi paused, then she walked over with moist eyes. "Are you angry at me? I've called you, but your phone was switched off. I..."

"Yifeng..."

Xi Xinyi sat down beside Han Yifeng, her eyes blinking with tears. She reached out to hold Han Yifeng's arm, her charming face now seeming haggard. She shook Han Yifeng's arm, but when she saw that Han Yifeng was still frowning, she finally could not help but droop her head down, feeling upset and heartbroken. She started to cry.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I didn't know that things would turn out like this, Yifeng... I really didn't do it on purpose, Yifeng, I... I just cared for you too much. That's why I fell so deep into it and couldn't pull myself out. It makes me really sad that you'd switch off your phone and not pick up my calls... I'll listen to you and quite the entertainment industry, okay? Yifeng..."

Xi Xinyi choked on her sobs as her tears started to fall, and very soon it soaked her shirt. All of the agony she had endured suddenly erupted. "Yifeng, don't just keep quiet. Don't be mad at me! I'll just change after this, Yifeng..."

Her unbearably vulnerable face entered Han Yifeng's sight, yet it annoyed him somehow. He did not know how to answer her. In the name of love, she had not spared using so many tricks. He could feel that maybe Xi Xinyi did love him deeply, but could he really just turn a blind eye to all of this?

"I really love you... I really regretted it after that, just so you know. All these years, I've been trying to make it up to her. I've been working hard and doing my best, but, Yifeng, ever since we returned to the country, you've been slowly changing. You haven't been doting on me as you did. In this house, you treasure everything that she gave you like that bottle of stars by your nightstand... Do you know how it makes me panic?"
