Never Live Up to Your Love - C103
I didn’t know where I should go, because I didn’t know where Yu Jin was currently at. I found a public transport phone and immediately gave it to Yumann Ting.
The phone rang four times, and then Yumann Ting answered it. She thought that I was looking for her because I’m not used to living in Yu Family, so she smiled and said: “Little Wei, Mom is almost ready. I will be back in three days.”
Her voice was relaxed, devoid of any emotion.
Very well, even I was deceived by her, I don’t believe that she would not reveal a single thing to me even if On Syouwa were to sue Yu Jin in the name of his family. She didn’t know about it at all.
I wanted to interrogate her, but the moment the words were about to reach my mouth, I swallowed them back. Right now is not the time to interrogate her, interrogating Yumann Ting is useless, it would only alarm the Yu Family and allow them to greatly control me.
If I knew that Yu Family was a vortex created by a conspiracy, I wouldn’t have jumped down so recklessly.
I just wanted to help him and relieve some of his burdens. I didn’t think that Yumann Ting would actually be involved in this as well.
I really shouldn’t have believed her. How could I have gotten her last name?
Yumann Ting saw that I had given her the phone, so she did not say anything. What’s wrong? Why aren’t you saying anything? ”
I suppressed my emotions and straightened my body. I tried to stand straight on the public phone booth. “It’s nothing. I just want to know how you’re doing on Mrs Yu’s side.”
Seeing that it was the first time she was concerned about Xiao Ruoyun, her tone revealed an unspeakable surprise. She smiled and said: “Mom has become a lot better, but I have been talking about you, and how comfortable it is to live at Yu Family.”
“Don’t worry about me,” I said.
Yumann Ting said, “Okay. I will pass it on for you. ”
Just as I was about to hang up, Yumann Ting suddenly asked: “Little Wei, you seem to be using a public phone.” She noticed this and I didn’t want to hide it. I said, “It’s a little boring, so I ran away to relax.”
Yumann Ting’s voice instantly became tense as she said, “Oh, really? Where are you now? ”
I looked around and told her about a relatively conspicuous building.
She immediately said, “I’ll pick you up now.”
Not even allowing me to refuse, I hung up and put the phone down. It was already cloudy outside, and I didn’t know when it started to drizzle. I thought about it, turned around, and gave Tan Wan a call. My only hope right now is to see if Tan Wan can help me contact Yu Jin.
After the call went through, there was no answer on the first line. I made the second call, when I thought there would be no answer on the second. Tan Wan’s voice miraculously came from the other side. She asked: “Who is it?”
I tightened my grip on the phone and said, “Sister Ai, it’s me.” Afraid that she wouldn’t be able to recognize my voice, he added another sentence after, “Little Wei.”
When Tan Wan heard that it was me, she immediately raised her voice and asked: “Little Wei? Where are you now? Did you know that something happened to your family?! ” When she said till here, she felt that something was amiss, but she changed her words: “That’s not right, what are you doing now? Even if you hate Yu Jin, you shouldn’t be using Yu Family to mess with Wu Zhijun and the others, right?”
Now, even she thinks that this matter is related to me. I didn’t think that Wu Zhijun’s net would be so big that it could even be used on Yu Family.
I explained to Tan Wan: “I didn’t sue Yu Jin, and now that I am imprisoned by the Yu Family, the Yu Family has brought a suit against Yu Jin in my name.”
Tan Wan spoke out, “What?!”
Tan Wan remained silent for a while, then said: “Little Wei, you are the root of Yu Jin’s heart, and everyone else knows it, so they are all holding you in their hands and pressing you into his heart. This time, he is really dead.”
To be able to make Tan Wan say such words, it was obvious how dangerous his current situation was.
My hand tightened around the phone again.
Tan Wan sighed and said: “Did you call me today to find Yu Jin?”
I said, “Yes, I’d like to ask him where he is now.”
Tan Wan said: “These few days, because there will be a court case, he has been cooperating with the investigation. How about I call his lawyer for you?”
I choked with sobs. “Sister Tan Wan, thank you so much.”
She said: “Why would we say such words, what relationship do I have with Yu Jin?” She was about to hang up when she said, “Are you on the public phone now?”
I said, “Yes.”
Tan Wan said: “It’s better this way. I’ll give you his lawyer’s number and you can contact him directly. Just say that you are his sister.”
I said, “Okay.”
After that, Tan Wan gave me her number, this place was not far from the hospital where Yumann Ting was, I knew that she was about to rush here, so after I noted down the number that Tan Wan gave me, I quickly pressed down the long string of numbers on the phone. For some reason, after the call was spread out, my palms started to sweat, this time, someone quickly picked up the call, and a strange voice came out from the other side.
He said, “This is Zhicheng, the law firm.”
I immediately stated my identity: “Hello, Mr. Jin, I am Yu Jin’s sister.”
When the lawyer heard that I was Yu Jin’s younger sister, he was initially a little surprised. A few seconds later, he snapped out of it and said, “Miss Yu?”
I said, “Yes, I am.” I then asked, “May I ask if Yu Jin is by your side?”
The lawyer knew that I was only here to find Yu Jin, so he didn’t say anything more. He said, “Please wait a moment, we are currently meeting up with the police at Police Station. Your brother is still talking to the police.”
I said, “Okay, I’m in no hurry.”
After waiting for a few minutes, he heard voices and footsteps from the other side of the phone. Not long later, Yu Jin walked over, and the lawyer handed the phone over to Yu Jin.
He has always been a master at concealing his emotions, so people who aren’t familiar with him basically won’t notice the subtle changes in his voice. But we’ve lived together for more than ten years, and even though we haven’t seen each other for so long, the moment he opened his mouth, the subtle changes in his tone of voice was immediately discernible to me.
At that moment, I suddenly became very calm and peaceful. There were no tears, no tears, not even excitement.
He asked very calmly, “Are you in the Police Station now?”
He gave a short grunt of acknowledgement, then asked again, “How was your life at the Yu Family?”
He didn’t bring up the subject of why I wanted to sue him. After a few seconds of silence, I directly replied, “I’m not doing well.”
I thought that he would scold me a little. After all, I chose to do it myself, but he didn’t. He seemed to have a cold, and his voice carried a little bit? He asked, “What’s wrong? Tell me.”
I said, “I was placed under house arrest. I didn’t know about the prosecution until now. I —”
Before I could finish speaking, Yu Jin interrupted me and asked, “Where are you now?”
I said, “I escaped.”
Yu Jin suddenly scolded me, “Do you have a brain? Who told you to come out, is there no one around you? Where’s Yumann Ting? ”
He asked me a few questions, but I just listened to him silently. I didn’t say anything, nor did I answer him.
He realized that his tone sounded a little urgent, and stopped for a few seconds. He then said in a gentle voice, “Alright, I have nothing to do now, I will settle this matter by myself, I will notify Yumann Ting to come and fetch you.”
I said, “You don’t have to worry about what happens to me, Yu Jin. All I know is that I’m the only one who can save you. As long as I admit that I willingly stayed with them, they wouldn’t be able to do anything to you. Right now, I’m the only one who can help you. ”
He said with a calm voice. “Yu Xiaowei, don’t mess around with me, don’t meddle in this matter, I will take care of this matter properly. The only thing you need to do is to immediately return my Yu Family.”
I said, “I’m here to see you.”
He said, “Return my Yu Family.”
Yu Jin had never hung up on me before, never did. Every time I got tired of his warning, I would just angrily hang up on him, or even turn off his phone.
I listened to the beep coming from the phone, and it wasn’t long before Yumann Ting’s car was parked behind me. When I looked back, she rushed out of the car under the heavy rain, and immediately dragged me, who was staying in the public phone booth, and said, “What are you doing?”
She frowned, and when she saw the phone in my hand, she asked again, “Did you call Yu Jin?”
I said, “Why didn’t you tell me that On Syouwa used my name to sue Yu Jin? Or you and him. ”
My sharp eyes fell on her.
She said, “You know?”
I said, “Shouldn’t I know?”
Yumann Ting explained: “Little Wei, I have no other choice. This is father’s decision, and from start to finish, what I want is to get you out of the Yu Family. If Yu Jin doesn’t fall, how are you going to leave the Yu Family?”
She took my hand again and said, “Come, come home with me.”
She led me out of the public phone booth and tried to pull me into the car, but I threw her back and she slammed into the car.
It was raining heavily in the sky, and all of the rain was washing onto Yumann Ting and me, all over our faces and bodies. The two of them were in an unspeakable sorry state.
I smiled and said, “Yumann Ting, I believed in you before, I really believe in you now, but I am very regretful. You don’t deserve my trust at all. Yes, I hope to escape Yu Jin’s control, not this kind of method to destroy him. Strictly speaking, you can be considered to have followed him for many years.
I threw that down, took one last look at her, and turned away.
Yumann Ting wanted to chase after me, but her car door was hung up by the door, adding the fact that she was pushed hard by me just now, she couldn’t move at all. Come back! ”
Her voice was loud enough and urgent enough, but the rain was too heavy for it, as if the trust we had so painstakingly built between us had been easily diluted and rediluted by the rain.
I ran for an hour in the heavy rain. I didn’t know where I should go, I wanted to look for Yu Jin, but I didn’t know which police station he was at so I could only look for Tan Wan for help.
However, I didn’t know where she was staying, so I could only go to the clubhouse she was holding. The place was still filled with smoke and miasma, and all sorts of people were gambling in it. The people who were originally busy playing games and gambling all looked at me when I wet myself and pushed open the door to enter.
Someone recognized me, and I heard their quiet whisper. I clenched my fists and tried to keep my emotions under control, to act as if nothing had happened.
At this moment a waiter came up and asked me who I was looking for.
I said, “I’m looking for Tan Wan.”
Before, when Yu Jin brought me here, she greeted me, so she did not ask anymore, and turned around to walk towards the private room. Not long after, Tan Wan, who was wearing pajamas, walked out of the room and saw me completely drenched in sweat. She called out in surprise, “Little Wei?”
She looked at me in disbelief. She probably didn’t expect that I would come to look for her and when she saw that everyone’s gaze was fixated on me, she realised something and quickly walked in and brought me in.
When we arrived at the private room, Tan Wan arranged for me to sit on the sofa. She immediately went to the cabinet to find a set of pajamas for me, and told me to quickly go into the bathroom to change out of my wet clothes.
My whole body was frozen stiff, I took the clean clothes that Tan Wan passed to me. She then went to the bathroom to change. After I came out, Tan Wan had coincidentally poured a cup of hot water and brought it in. She passed it to me and told me to warm my body.
After I received it, I hoarsely expressed my thanks.
Tan Wan did not understand and asked: “Why are you here? “He actually came through the heavy rain.”
I held onto the water cup in my hand, and spoke to Tan Wan after a long while: “I just escaped from the Yu Family.”
Tan Wan immediately sat beside me and asked: “Did you give Yu Jin a phone number?”
“He doesn’t want to see me,” I said.
Tan Wan asked again: “Did you explain to him that Yu Family is using your name to sue him?”
I said, “I did.”
Tan Wan frowned and asked: Then why is he unwilling to see you?
Tan Wan said. She denied it and said: “That’s not right, the reason why Yu Jin does not want to see you, is because he fears that he will drag you into this mess.”
When Tan Wan said till here, he could only sigh. She placed her hand on my body and said softly: “At the moment, even such a situation cannot be reversed. Little Wei, you should indeed listen to Yu Jin and not be mixed in.”
I put down the cup of water in my hands and asked, “Is it the trial of Yu Jin and Yu Family the day after tomorrow?”
Seeing me ask that, Tan Wan said softly: “Yes, we will start the court and judge whether Yu Jin is strong or weak. In this lawsuit, Yu Family has used the excuse that you are overly upset and entrusted all of their authority to your family members to control the rumors outside. In this famous battle, Yu Jin has undoubtedly lost. No one will really care about whether or not this matter is true or false. Wu Zhijun has spread the word a little too much this time, so it’s possible that in the future, Yu Jin will … ”
Tan Wan didn’t continue, but I knew what she wanted to say.
I said, “I want a lawyer.”
What I said caused Tan Wan’s expression to freeze. She seemed to not have heard it clearly, and asked again: “What did you say?”
I said, “I want to sue On Syouwa. Not only am I under house arrest, I also want to sue Yu Jin in my name. I’m even colluding with Wu Zhijun to frame someone else and create a story.”
I put down the water cup in my hands, grabbed Tan Wan’s hand, and begged him: “Sister Xi, please help me. I don’t want Yu Jin to be a strong person in his entire life.
I was very anxious. I grabbed onto the strength of Tan Wan’s hand, almost pinching her hand until it turned red.
Tan Wan held onto me and said, “How do you want me to help you?”
I said, “You must know a lot of famous lawyers, Sister Aster. I need you to find me a good lawyer. ”
Tan Wan frowned and said: “Little Wei, you must think this through. If you do this, you will become enemies with Yu Family, and no matter what, Yu Family is related to you. You are part of the Yi family, and in the future, it will be difficult to deal with you. Moreover, you have already entered into the legal proceedings with Wu Zhijun. The public opinion side had calmed down a lot, and if you were to join this battle again, it will only cause a huge mess, so more people will come to watch the show. ”
I cried and said, “I’ve thought about that point of yours, but how could On Syouwa agree to it? You don’t know that the two of us simply don’t have any feelings for each other, ever since he accepted me into the Yu Family. “You can see it with just me.”
Tan Wan said, “I know, but Little Wei, you are still father and daughter after all.
Just as Tan Wan finished speaking, her phone emitted an ear-piercing ringtone, she lowered her head and took out her phone from the tea table. When she saw the two words Yu Jin, she looked at me.
I looked at her.
Tan Wan asked me: “Accept it or not?”
Maybe Yumann Ting gave Yu Jin a call. Tell him about my escape. Yu Jin was probably here to ask Tan Wan if I was with her.
I said, “Answer it.”
Tan Wan could only nod her head, she then went to the balcony to answer the call.
About three minutes later, Tan Wan walked in from the balcony and said to me, “He asked me if you were here and I told him that he still had ten minutes left.”
Tan Wan asked: Do you want to see Yu Jin?
Of course I want to see it. I know it. That’s why he came to see me.
