Quadruplets’ Charm: The Tycoon’s Hidden Heirs

Chapter 32: Chapter 32: An Unnecessary Move Chapter 32: Chapter 32: An Unnecessary Move It was a loss that did not pay off.

If she hadn’t run into Ye Sihan, she wouldn’t have known that her resignation letter was not approved, and could have taken the children and flown abroad right away.

“Don’t forget, he’s already engaged,” Ye Sihan reminded her.

Tang Yu was cautious as she met Ye Sihan’s dark pupils for a moment, her nerves shook, and she immediately averted her gaze, “Yes.”

“Sit down, I ordered too much food,” Ye Sihan retracted his gaze and continued his meal.

Where dared Tang Yu refuse? She was forced to sit down, only to notice that there was an extra set of utensils in front of her.

Ye Sihan must have been certain she would show, his control over her psychology was precise to the smallest detail.

As Tang Yu stuffed food into her mouth, she thought about Ye Sihan reminding her that Ye Yuli was already engaged, feeling as though he was hinting at something to her.

Could it be because… Yu Zhaohui had destroyed his parents’ marriage, their family, so he detested such matters?

Even in front of Ye Sihan, Tang Yu dared not reveal the slightest bit of her relationship with Yu Zhaohui.

Her relationship with him…
If it were exposed, what kind of consequences would such a change bring? Would Ye Sihan tell her to get lost, far away? Or would he have her continue to stay in the capital, unable to leave, suppressed at every turn?

She hoped for the former.

Yet she did not dare to bet on it.

After all, the latter was also highly possible because Ye Sihan’s aura made people feel afraid, his methods ruthless…
“Looking at what?” Ye Sihan lifted his deep black eyes.

Tang Yu was startled and hurriedly lowered her head, “Nothing…” She had actually been staring at him, lost in thought.

“Talk about your arrangements after resignation,” Ye Sihan commanded with the aura of a superior, temporarily listening to the subordinate’s report.

‘Subordinate’ Tang Yu swallowed the food in her mouth and said, “…I want to study abroad.” As Ye Sihan’s gaze, deep as an ancient well, turned to her, she hastily added, “I haven’t finished college. I’d like to complete my studies, which will be beneficial for my future experience and work.”

“An unnecessary move,” Ye Sihan’s eyes were cold.

Tang Yu pursed her lips and stayed silent.

Yes, working at KING Corporation, which was a place of powerful development and unpredictable prospects.

To resign and return to studies, then find another job, would indeed be madness.

However, Tang Yu’s necessity was known only to herself.

After the meal, just as she stepped out of the restaurant, Tang Yu’s phone in her bag started ringing.

She took out her phone, glanced at it, and hurriedly said to Ye Sihan, “I need to go somewhere else, Mr. Ye, take care!” She bowed deeply and then ran off.

Ye Yuli walked up behind Ye Sihan, “Brother, do you like her?”

“Are you trying to fathom my thoughts?” Ye Sihan did not turn back, his gaze fixed ahead, his expression cold.

“Not at all, it’s just that she doesn’t seem to be your type,” Ye Yuli remarked.

Ye Sihan said nothing, got into the car, and drove off.

Ye Yuli stood there for a long while, gazing in the direction Tang Yu had run off to, his expression slightly dark.

Tang Yu had run quite a distance, and the phone’s ringing had long stopped.

She caught her breath, her breathing steadied, and then she returned Yu Zhaohui’s call.

“Xiaoyu, are you busy?”

“I was just having dinner with Ye Sihan.” Tang Yu asked, “Do you know who owns KING Corporation? Why didn’t you tell me Ye Sihan is Uncle Ye’s son after I mentioned I used to work there?”

“You were just working there, and besides, I was afraid that knowing would burden you mentally. But how did you end up having dinner with Ye Sihan? Are you two close?”

“No,” Tang Yu instinctively denied. What closeness? She wished she could stay tens of thousands of miles away from him. “I have something to ask you. What’s the deal with you and Uncle Ye? Why are people telling me that you’re the homewrecker who caused Ye Sihan’s mother’s death?”

“I’m sick of these rumors, they’re endless,” Yu Zhaohui sneered on the phone.

Tang Yu held onto a sliver of hope, “Is it false?”

“Those people are just jealous of me, trying to bring me down, utterly destroy me. Xiaoyu, you’re my daughter, if you don’t believe in your mother, it’ll break my heart,” Yu Zhaohui lamented.

Through the filter of ‘mother,’ Tang Yu instinctively chose to believe her.

“Don’t lie to me.”

“How could I lie to you? Is it Lin Shuhuan who told you? Let me tell you, Lin Shuhuan and Zhao Xing are best friends, they definitely don’t want anyone to replace Zhao Xing. Even if it wasn’t me marrying Ye Xianghua today, but someone else, they would face the same slander.”

Tang Yu thought, it was Ye Yuli who said it, but that’s no different from what Lin Shuhuan said, right? What he knew must have all come from his own mother.

After that, the topic was glossed over without further discussion.

Yu Zhaohui’s call was just to arrange shopping with her the next day.

Tang Yu didn’t agree to go, nor did she decline; she simply said she’d see when the time came.

Truthfully, regardless of whether Yu Zhaohui was a homewrecker or not, Tang Yu had no intention of staying in Kyoto.

All the better, seeing her mother with a happy ending would give her even more peace of mind about leaving.

She turned to look towards the direction of the restaurant, wondering if Ye Sihan had approved her resignation report; she had forgotten in her haste.

When she went to pick up the kids from school, they were overjoyed upon seeing her.

On the way home, as they walked, Xibao stopped and looked up with an innocent face, her little belly sticking out. The tummy would puff up rhythmically with her breaths, endearingly cute.

“What’s wrong?” Tang Yu squatted down to ask. “Are you tired of walking, want a hug?”

“Um…” Xibao sighed.

Tang Yu smiled, “Come on, hug.” She picked up the squishy little body.

Xibao immediately wrapped her arms around Mommy’s neck, her little cheeks flushed red.

Back at home, she first made formula milk for the four hungry little ones.

Four chubby little mouths sucked on their bottles, extremely adorable.

Tang Yu had not yet told the children about her thoughts of leaving Kyoto, waiting until after they finished their milk before tentatively asking, “Which school do you prefer, the current one or the previous one?”

“Both are good!” the four little ones chimed in unison.

Tang Yu laughed. Indeed, who wouldn’t like you guys? Everyone would love to come up to you for a cuddle and a squeeze, and they even use your photos as profile pictures and screensavers.

Ever since running into Ye Sihan in Kyoto, she, as their mother, had even changed the screensaver of the kids’ photos.

Looking at Xibao’s round tummy in front of her, her playful side kicked in, and she poked it with a fingertip, “Wow~ is this a beer belly? Did you drink beer? How can you be so cute?”

“Not beer, beer… drank milk beer…” Xibao giggled.

Tang Yu was so amused she shook with laughter, milk beer, how ridiculously cute!

She joyfully gathered all four little ones into her arms; the soft, warm feel was so satisfyingly blissful.

As long as they were by her side, it was as if she had the whole world.

At night, after the children were asleep, Tang Yu and Li Xue snuck onto the balcony to secretly eat barbecue and drink soda.

“I haven’t eaten like this since I had the kids,” Tang Yu laughed.

“Is it because you can’t sneak it behind them?” Li Xue guessed.

Tang Yu couldn’t help but nod with a chuckle, “One time after the kids were asleep, I was eating chips. I don’t know if Xibao heard the noise, but she got out of bed by herself, she had just learned to walk. She toddled over to me, sat down with a plop on the floor, and looked up at me with big eyes. I froze, caught red-handed, and we just stared at one another. It wasn’t until a babyish ‘Mommy’ brought me back to my senses, and then I swiftly dumped the chips into the trash can.”
