CEO's Secret Pet: Woman, You Can't Escape Even If You Have Wings
Chapter 226: Regaining Jingyan's Heart
"Brother, it's not that I don't want to help Jingyan, it's just... it's just that I really can't trust Jiang Xiyan so easily!" Ye Ziyuan frowned, her voice slightly raised, and her eyes were full of undisguised suspicion. As she finished her words, the originally bright light in the living room seemed to be affected, and it dimmed a little inexplicably, as if even the air became heavy because of her bad mood at the moment.
Ye Chen, who was sitting nearby, could not help but sit back on the sofa after hearing his sister's excited words. He leaned forward slightly, staring intently and seriously at Ye Ziyuan's face, which was flushed red with anger, and slowly said, "Sister, I don't dare to completely believe him. However, we might as well calm down and observe carefully for a while. After all, if he really wants to reform this time, it won't be too late for us to consider whether to help him. Besides, this matter is ultimately for Jingyan's sake. If Jiang Xiyan can really change his ways, it will undoubtedly be a relief for Jingyan."
Ye Ziyuan frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. After a moment, she nodded gently and agreed: "Okay, in that case, I will observe for a while and see what he can do."
At this time, Ye Chen, who had been watching Ye Ziyuan, saw this and raised his mouth slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He slowly reached into his pocket, fumbled for a while, and took out a neatly folded piece of paper.
Then, he carefully handed the note to Ye Ziyuan and whispered, "This is Jiang Xiyan's private phone number. If you need anything, you might as well contact him first." After that, Ye Chen turned and walked towards the door, ready to go to his company to start a busy day of work.
Ye Ziyuan silently took the note, staring at the numbers on it, and her heart was filled with ripples. Her fingers holding the note tightened slightly, as if she wanted to grasp some unknown emotion. After hesitating for a long time, she finally made up her mind, slowly raised her other hand, and picked up the mobile phone on the coffee table beside her. With a slight keystroke sound, she entered the numbers written on the note one by one.
When the last number was pressed, Ye Ziyuan's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, like a frightened deer running rampant in her chest. For some reason, even though she knew that the other party had deeply hurt her best friend, she couldn't help but feel nervous deep in her heart when she was about to talk to that man. The entire spacious living room seemed particularly quiet at this moment, and only her rapid heartbeat and the short and crisp sound of the phone dialing intertwined together, breaking the tranquility.
Not long after, a deep, magnetic, yet indifferent male voice suddenly sounded. The voice seemed to penetrate through layers of space and reach people's ears.
"Is that Jiang Xiyan? I'm Ye Ziyuan!" Although Ye Ziyuan tried her best to make her voice sound calm and steady, she still couldn't hide the slight tremor that was hardly noticeable. At this moment, her fingers seemed to be out of control, and she couldn't help but tightly grasp the phone in her hand, and even her palms were soaked with sweat.
"Ziyuan, I really didn't expect to receive your call. I've been thinking about hearing your voice day and night! I'm Jiang Xiyan!" The irrepressible joy and expectation in Jiang Xiyan's voice coming from the other end of the phone almost broke through the receiver and was transmitted directly to Ye Ziyuan's ears.
However, Ye Ziyuan seemed to be completely oblivious to Jiang Xiyan's passionate expression. She was heard clenching the phone in her hand tightly, with such force that it seemed as if she was going to crush it. Her two beautiful eyebrows, which were already as beautiful as a crescent moon, were instantly frowned together, forming a deep "川" character. At the same time, her originally soft and pleasant voice suddenly increased by several decibels like a ignited gunpowder barrel. Every word she uttered was full of undisguised questioning: "What on earth did you do to Shen Jingyan?"
At this moment, Jiang Xiyan was sitting in a spacious and bright office. He signed important documents one after another calmly and leisurely, as if all the noise and disturbances in the outside world had nothing to do with him. Facing Ye Ziyuan's anxious questioning, he just raised his head slightly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and responded slowly: "What else can I do to her? It's just to let her stay in a quieter place for a while."
"Why do you control Jingyan's freedom!" Ye Ziyuan's tone became increasingly sharp, like a sharp sword stabbing straight at Jiang Xiyan.
"Heh," Jiang Xishen only smiled softly, lowered his head slightly, and did not even lift his eyelids, continuing the action at hand slowly. His magnetic voice was as low and elegant as a cello: "Miss Ye, are you questioning me?"
On this side, Ye Ziyuan tightly grasped the mobile phone in her hand, and the white knuckles of her fingers looked a little white due to excessive force. Her brows were tightly furrowed, as if a deep "chuan" character was carved. Her originally smart and beautiful big eyes were now wide open, burning with raging anger and undisguised questioning.
At this moment, Ye Ziyuan was in her warm pink bedroom full of girlishness. There were several fashion magazines scattered on the floor, as well as some clothes that had not been put away in time. She paced back and forth in the room in a distracted manner, occasionally bumping into those items that were discarded at random, but at this moment, she had no time to care about them. While walking, she accidentally kicked a pair of shoes, but even so, she seemed to be unaware of it, still immersed in anger and confusion about Jiang Xishen's actions.
Jiang Xiyan sat expressionlessly in front of the spacious but unusually deserted desk, as if he was covered by a layer of frost, exuding a chilling indifference. His deep eyes were as cold as a pond, making it difficult to peek into his true thoughts.
At this moment, the pile of documents on the desk in front of him was like a shaky mountain. Jiang Xiyan picked up one of the documents carelessly, without even looking at it, just glanced at it with the corner of his eye, then picked up the pen in his hand and quickly signed his name with a flourish.
Then, without hesitation, he threw the signed document aside like a worthless piece of trash. The document drew an arc in the air and then lightly fell to the ground.
Ever since Ye Ziyuan learned that Jiang Xiyan had imprisoned Shen Jingyan, her heart was instantly filled with endless anger. Her beautiful face was slightly wrinkled, her beautiful eyes were flashing with anger, and her tone unconsciously carried a bit of dissatisfaction and blame, she asked: "Why do you imprison her like this? This is simply too much!"
Jiang Xiyan, who was on the other end of the phone, heard Ye Ziyuan's question, but his face was not disturbed at all, and he was still as cold as usual. His stern face was like a sculpture, with clear lines, and his thin lips slightly opened under his high nose bridge. He replied coldly: "I just don't want her to meet the man named Lin Yu!" These words came out of his mouth, as if carrying a domineering aura that would not allow anyone to question or resist, as well as a palpitating determination.
"Hmph, you think you can imprison her, but can you really imprison her heart?" Ye Ziyuan was obviously very dissatisfied with Jiang Xiyan's tough approach, and the sarcasm in her words became more and more obvious.
At this time, Jiang Xiyan had just signed an important document and threw it aside. Then, he slowly leaned back, lazily leaning on the back of the large and comfortable office chair. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a disdainful smile, and said to Ye Ziyuan on the other end of the phone: "Her heart? Ha... Her heart has never belonged to me." After saying that, he gently closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to say another word.
Ye Ziyuan was slightly shocked when she heard Jiang Xiyan's self-deprecating and helpless words. She stopped pacing and stood there in a daze, not knowing how to respond for a moment.
The room was filled with a tense atmosphere, and the pink walls seemed to be somewhat oppressive because of the intense conversation. The fashion magazines and clothes scattered on the floor added to the mess. Ye Ziyuan stood in the chaos, her brows furrowed, and her eyes revealed a complex emotion.
After a long silence, Ye Ziyuan took a deep breath, as if to suppress all the emotions surging in her heart. She tried hard to adjust her breathing, trying to calm her excited mood. Finally, she said: "Jiang Xiyan, no matter what the situation is, it is definitely not right for you to imprison Jingyan like this. You should use appropriate and reasonable methods to try to win her heart back, instead of using such extreme and radical means!"
At this time, Jiang Xiyan laughed softly from the other end of the phone, but there was a hint of bitterness in his laughter. He said helplessly, "The right way? Humph, I have already tried all the ways I can think of, but she has never looked at me straight in the eye. Ye Ziyuan, then tell me, what else can I do?"
Hearing this, Ye Ziyuan couldn't help biting her lips, frowning slightly, and fell into a brief contemplation. After a long while, she slowly said: "First of all, you have to release Jingyan and give her the freedom she deserves. Let her make her own choice. If she really has no feelings for you, then no matter how much you force her, it will be useless."
Jiang Xiyan opened his eyes suddenly upon hearing this, and a hint of hesitation flashed across his eyes. But it was only for a moment, and the hesitation was quickly replaced by an extremely determined look. He held the phone tightly and responded firmly: "No, I absolutely cannot let her go. Because as long as she leaves my side, I will completely lose any chance of having her."
Ye Ziyuan frowned, her face full of anxiety, and shouted anxiously to the person in front of her: "How can you do this? If you continue like this, she will only hate you more!" As she spoke, she unconsciously took a small step forward, as if she wanted to reach out and grab the other person, but finally hesitated and stopped.
