Chapter 9 A Late Confession

"Have you decided where to go next?" He withdrew his hand up in the air, and his temper had unknowingly become much more gentle.

"Send me to the Red County district." Wei Yi's lips curved into a smile with a trace of bitterness, which made Lin Tianyuan's heart ache for no reason.

"Your parents' house? You don't get on well with them, do you?" He tried to convince Wei Yi that she could snuggle up to him at her most vulnerable moment.

But Wei Yi shook her head and looked at Lin Tianyuan vigilantly.

"No, my friend lives there."

"Male or female?"

"Female." Wei yi buried her head between his knees. Lin Tianyuan had heard this answer and was satisfied to remain silent. There was nothing else in the small space except for the sound of the engine starting,

until the car stopped.

"You'd better get divorced as soon as possible." Lin Tianyuan turned to one side and his hand moved across Wei Yi, stopping on the seat belt next to her. His indifferent tone seemed to be as casual as asking, "Have you eaten?"

Wei Yi was caught off guard. At that moment, she was half-embraced by Lin Tianyuan. The faint scent of the man's perfume fell into her nose along with his movement, following the respiratory system to her brain.

The quiet and narrow space was filled with a different kind of enchantment.

"Crack!" Wei Yi's seatbelt was unbuckled and his thin lips brushed against her ear. Lin Tianyuan sat up straight and his tall body gave off an inexplicable sense of pressure in the car.

There was a moment of emptiness in her brain, and a hot breath flashed past her ear. Even if he moved away, the frightened Wei Yi bit her lower lip with an inexplicable feeling that this kind of warmth was familiar.

"Thank you for helping me these days, Boss Lin." She restrained her shyness and began to speak in a stiff manner. "As for my personal life, I don't think you have the right to interfere."

Hearing this, Lin Tianyuan frowned and remained glum. He moved closer to Wei Yi's cheeks and said angrily, "Wei yi, this is your attitude to your boss?"

She smiled. "The manager taught me to treat the company's partners with courtesy and politeness. If Boss Lin feels that this is inappropriate, you can complain to my company."

"Wei Yi!" He didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he punched the seat behind her head, with his eyes red. "Put away your official cliches. I'm not your superior, and I don't need your politeness. I want you to look at me with care and love!"

Wei Yi nodded as if she had understood, "Are you reminding me that you are my ex-brother-in-law?"

Lin Tianyuan took a deep breath and relaxed his eyebrows as if he had made a decision. Suddenly, he grabbed her hands on her leg and watched her dodging eyes.

"Wei Yi, listen carefully," he said slowly. "I am not Boss Lin or Lin Xiangzhe's younger brother right now. I have always appeared in front of you as Lin Tianyuan. So, I want to be with you and tell me what you think. We will face the future together."

What a beautiful promise. Wei Yi was slightly surprised, but the corner of her mouth still curled up. She was almost falling into Lin Tianyuan's dark eyes.

A long time ago, the Lin family had mentioned that second young master Lin Tianyuan had a flaw in his character and lacked the cognitive ability. He was indifferent to even the people closest to himself.

Faced with his sudden confession, Wei Yi couldn't help but think about it. She wondered if he would use his family's inheritance to suppress Lin Xiangzhe by taking advantage of herself.

Thinking of this, Wei Yi's good impression of lin Tianyuan disappeared instantly. She withdrew her hand from Lin Tianyuan's cold palm like just having an electric shock and moved her body toward the narrow space backward.

"You don't have to worry about what happened between me and Lin Xiangzhe. I will handle it well. You can rest assured. As for the rest, I've heard enough lies. Thank you. Bye." She put her hand on the car door and got ready to get out.

That last "Goodbye" sounded harsh to Lin Tianyuan, but he was afraid that Wei Yi would suddenly disappear from his life, as determined as she did a year ago...

"Wait..." He grabbed her wrist and spoke with a trace of anxiety and urgency. "Wei Yi, what I said just now is all true to my heart. Please be with me, and I... will always love you."

Long ago, the Wei Yi had already knew the ugliness of promise; the solemn vows was simply vulnerable in the face of reality .

Lin Xiangzhe, who had been in love with her for many years, could easily give up on her, let alone Lin Tianyuan, who had only met her a few times.

She smiled sarcastically and looked back, only to find that for the first time in his life, there was a sense of fear in the face of Lin Tianyuan, who had always been calm and powerful in the business world.

And that wisp of emotion was only like a flash in the pan. It was so fleeting that Wei Yi suspected it was a slip of eye.

"Lin Tianyuan, it doesn't matter whether you are serious or you just flirt with me on a whim; soon I'll be a divorced woman, and I'm not a good match for you. So, when you see me again, let's pretend that we don't know each other." After saying that, she broke away from Lin Tianyuan's fingers and tugged at her shabby clothes. Without looking back, she ran into the doorway of an apartment.

3302 was the number of the apartment she went into. Lin Tianyuan read it in his mind, with his lips moving and whispering, "It's never been a whim, be it a year ago or today."

Wei Yi's college classmate Su Xiaodi lived in the Red County district. Under the double betrayal of love and family, Wei Yi could no longer think of other people she could rely on at this time other than Su Xiaodi.

"Yi? Why are you here?" Su Xiaodi, who had just opened the door, smiled like a flower, but frowned when she saw Wei Yi's messy clothes.

"You met a rapist?"

Wei Yi did not answer, but jumped into Su Xiaodi's arms and burst into tears. Su Xiaodi had no choice but to drag Wei Yi into the room first.

"Oh, so you're about to divorce that jerk Lin Xiangzhe?" Under Wei Yi's evasive statement, Su Xiaodi gradually understood what had happened. She laughed and picked up the man's suit that Wei Yi was wearing. Tsk tsk, "That's trendy! Wei yi, sister-in-law and brother are in love!"

Her sobs stopped abruptly. An unnatural red swept across Wei Yi's ears. She cleared her hoarse throad and slapped gossipy Su Xiaodi's head away.

"Don't be ridiculous, Lin Tianyuan. He... probably helped me because of the inheritance rights of the Lin family." Wei Yi recalled the man's dard and deep eyes and was suddenly moved.
