Refusing to marry into a wealthy family, the richest man's uncle coaxed me into marriage

Both of Si Tong's hands were restrained, he lowered his eyes and calmed down.

She had thought that she would please him first and make him happy, and then take advantage of his loss of rationality to tell him about her aunt and Yangyang.

However, Yu Hanshen saw through her intention at a glance and was not tempted by her at all.

A sigh came from above my head. The man's voice was low and mellow, as if he was helpless: "Your body is not well yet, why are you doing this?"

Yu Hanshen pulled Si Tong's hands behind his back. Si Tong's cheek pressed against the man's strong chest. In his ears, he could hear his strong and steady heartbeat.

"Please don't force me, okay?" Si Tong closed his eyes and spoke slowly: "I am a human being, I have my own thoughts and freedom."

"You cut off my escape route and forced me to stay by your side. It makes me feel like I'm a pet you keep. Every step I take must follow the path you set. I don't like this feeling."

Si Tong is a typical taciturn person. He likes to keep everything in his heart and never complains no matter how painful it is.

That night at Tongcheng Hospital, and now, it was rare to hear her complain so much in one breath.

Yu Hanshen had always been worried that she would get stuck in a rut because of He Qinglan's matter, but in the end she did, being so stubborn that no one could do anything about it.

"So what do you want?" he asked helplessly.

In fact, I know what she wants.

Si Tong sensed that the man was compromising with her, and whispered, "Don't leave Aunt and Yangyang in Haicheng. Wait until they are discharged from the hospital and let them return to Tongcheng."

After a moment of silence, Yu Hanshen agreed: "Okay."

Si Tong continued: "I want to start over."

Yu Hanshen paused and asked her, "Do you really have to leave me?"

Although 'starting over' and 'leaving' have the same end result, they sound completely different. The latter is obviously more sharp and straightforward, like a knife stabbing Si Tong's heart.

Si Tong's throat suddenly seemed to be choked by something and he couldn't utter a word.

"Si Tong." Yu Hanshen called her.

This was the second time he called her by her full name.

The first time he called her that was when she proposed to draw a line between them for the second time. At that time, he was angry on the phone and his tone was cold and stern.

At this moment, his tone was extremely calm.

Yu Hanshen did not pause and spoke again, his voice slow and powerful: "This is the third time you want to draw a line between you and me. There is no such thing as a third time. Think it over before answering. People have limited patience."

Si Tong listened to the man's emotionless voice, as if he would not try to keep her as long as she said "yes".

Her throat hurt so much that she couldn't speak.

After a long silence, Si Tong spoke softly, "Yes."

Yu Hanshen was also silent. After a while, he said, "Okay, I will move to the company tomorrow. You can stay in the villa until you recover and then return to school. During this time, your professor will come to teach you."

After saying that, he let go of Si Tong, and his tone became businesslike and cold: "Go to bed early, I'll go to the next room."

Hearing the sound of the bedroom door being closed, Si Tong stood there in a daze. After an unknown amount of time, she slowly squatted down and hugged her knees.

This was clearly the result that I wanted, but when I really got it, it felt like a gaping wound was opened in my heart, and cold wind rushed in. It was cold and painful, and I didn't feel the slightest bit of joy of having gotten what I wanted.

This result is the best.

She thought that he would find someone more suitable than her in the future, and she would not have to blame herself and suffer thinking about her grandmother's face every time she fell in love with him.

After that night, Si Tong never saw Yu Hanshen again. Aunt Yang finally realized something was wrong after seeing Yu Hanshen not coming home for several nights.

When asked what was going on and whether she had a conflict with her husband, Si Tong just smiled and said nothing.

Professors from different subjects took turns to give her extra lessons every day. One-on-one teaching was different from large classes. Large classes had to take all the students into consideration and the teaching progress was slower. After giving Si Tong two individual lessons, the professors found that she learned very quickly.

So the teaching process was accelerated, and in more than half a month, Si Tong finished all the remaining courses.

In the last class, Professor Wu gave Si Tong a test paper to check her learning results. When he saw the full score, Professor Wu smiled with wrinkles on his face and praised Si Tong for a long time.

After praising, Professor Wu sat on the sofa in the study and did not leave immediately. He picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. After putting down the teacup, he rubbed his hands on his knees.

Si Tong saw that he had something to say, and curved his lips slightly: "Professor Wu, just say it."

Professor Wu cleared his throat and looked at Si Tong. The usually serious and rigid old man actually showed a hint of embarrassment.

"The New Energy Science and Technology Summit Symposium jointly organized by the School of Physics and the School of Chemistry will be held in a week. You should know this, right?"

"Huangsheng Group started to get involved in the new energy industry last year. The School of Physics and the School of Chemistry wanted to invite President Yu to talk to students about the development prospects of the new energy industry. However, they sent an invitation letter to President Yu, but he didn't respond. So I asked you to ask."

"Can you call your uncle and ask if he has time?"

Si Tong was slightly startled, "Uncle?"

During the Chinese New Year last year, Yu Hanshen went to Tongcheng to find her. She lied to Grandma Song and Song Hai, saying that Yu Hanshen was her cousin.

Yu Hanshen seemed to mind it a little at the time, and before leaving, he stuffed a stack of money into her pocket and whispered in her ear meaningfully, "This is the New Year's money your cousin gave you."

It was clearly something that happened a long time ago, but when I think back, it seems like it was just yesterday. I can even remember the look in that person's eyes at that time, which was deep but contained a restrained aggression.

"Yes, your cousin." Professor Wu was puzzled when he saw Si Tong's strange reaction: "Isn't it? The old man, the dean of the department, asked me to tutor Mr. Yu's niece."

Si Tong blinked his dry eyes, recovered, and declined politely: "I'm sorry, he's very busy and doesn't allow me to contact him casually on weekdays. I'm afraid I can't help you."

"Is that so?" Professor Wu was not disappointed. He was asking for others. He smiled and said, "Forget it then. Let those old guys figure it out themselves."

After seeing Professor Wu off, Si Tong stood in the yard in a daze for a while.

In mid-December, Haicheng just welcomed the first wave of cold wave. The temperature dropped below zero in the past two days, but the green plants in the yard still looked vibrant.

After resting for more than half a month, her body was almost recovered and it was time to leave the Imperial Examination Hall.

After returning to the master bedroom, she began to pack her things. A few days ago, the custom designer sent her a lot of winter clothes. Si Tong's suitcase could not hold so many, so she picked out a few pieces she had worn to pack.

Then I went to the bathroom to pack my toiletries.

Looking at the women's toiletries leaning against the men's toiletries, like a pair of lovers snuggling closely together, Si Tong's outstretched hand paused for a long time.

After cleaning the bathroom, she went to the guest room downstairs, the room where her grandmother and aunt had lived before.

The dowry that her grandmother bought for her was still neatly placed next to the sofa in the room. Next to the coffee table stood a black suitcase, which contained the betrothal gift that the Yu family gave to her grandmother when they went to Tongcheng.

Most families give betrothal gifts to their future daughter-in-law, but the Yu family gives these to their grandmother.

Grandma insisted on bringing it to her in Haicheng. Si Tong originally thought that after the wedding, he would help grandma deal with the gold, deposit it into a card together with the boxes of cash, and give it to his aunt as grandma's future retirement money.

Si Tong asked a courier company to come to her house and send the dowry back to Tongcheng. When filling out the express form, she hesitated for a moment and finally filled in the address of the old house.

Finally, he dragged the black suitcase to the living room and asked Aunt Yang to help hand it to Yu Hanshen.

As she pulled her luggage downstairs, Aunt Yang looked at her, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.

"Madam..." No matter how careless Aunt Yang was, she realized in the past half month that there was a big problem between her husband and his wife.

Now seeing that Si Tong was about to move away, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"Conflicts are inevitable when a couple lives together. If there is anything, they should just sit down and discuss and solve it. Why make it to this point?" Aunt Yang is very optimistic about Si Tong.

Mr. Yu is a serious and upright person with few desires. It is truly a miracle that he fell in love with a girl for the first time after he turned thirty.

It's such a pity that they were finally getting married and ended up breaking up.

As for the reason, Aunt Yang could guess a little bit that it must be related to the previous car accident.

Si Tong took out a brown envelope from her crossbody bag and said, "And this, can you please give it to him for me?"

"Madam..." Aunt Yang wanted to keep her.

Si Tong smiled and said, "Take care."

He Heng wanted to send her off, but Si Tong declined: "I called a taxi."

Taxis couldn't get into the villa area, so He Heng said, "Then I'll take you to the entrance of the villa."

The villa area covers a large area. There is a long distance from Courtyard No. 8 to the main gate. Si Tong did not refuse this time.

The bodyguards outside the courtyard have been there for more than half a month, as if they were afraid that she would not take good care of her health and go out for a walk. If Si Tong was not a quiet person, she probably would not be able to endure being locked up at home for half a month.

When the bodyguards saw Si Tong was about to leave, they looked like coming over to stop him. He Heng whispered a few words to them, and they stopped.

Aunt Yang watched the white Land Rover drive away and anxiously called Yu Hanshen.

It took several rings before the call was connected, and then Yu Hanshen's deep and magnetic voice came: "What's the matter?"

"Sir, the lady just left with the suitcase." Aunt Yang said anxiously.

There was a pause for a few seconds on the phone, and then the man's calm voice came again: "Got it."

Then it hung up.

Aunt Yang was dumbfounded, staring at the call end screen on her phone. Just like that?
