Quadruplets’ Charm: The Tycoon’s Hidden Heirs

Chapter 36: Chapter 36: You really are as cheap as that woman. Chapter 36: Chapter 36: You really are as cheap as that woman. Suddenly, Tang Yu noticed that Ye Sihan’s gaze had fallen upon the shopping bags on the platform, his deep voice emotionless, “You bought quite a lot.”

“Yes.”

“Who bought them for you?”

“I… I did.” Tang Yu didn’t dare mention Yu Zhaohui.

Ye Sihan must surely despise her mother to the bone, and that hatred would spill over to her as well.

“By my estimate, these are worth over a hundred thousand. Where did you get the money?”

“It was the compensation you gave me before.” Tang Yu’s responses grew increasingly uneasy, wishing so much that Ye Sihan would stop asking.

Especially since Ye Sihan had his back to her, making it even harder to guess what he was thinking.

Just as she was thinking this, Ye Sihan turned around, his entire being exuding sharpness, his hawk-like black eyes gleaming coldly, “Do you need me to look into your spending records?”

Tang Yu took a step back subconsciously, frightened.

“Once I find out, I won’t be so easy to talk to,” Ye Sihan’s black eyes were dark and menacing.

Tang Yu’s heartbeat raced as she looked at him, her breathing even more rapid.

Her mind was in chaos, contemplating a certain possibility, unable to figure out how to respond.

Could it be… that Ye Sihan knew she was Yu Zhaohui’s daughter?

How could that be?

How did he find out?

Did Lin Shuhuan tell him? Or did he find out through some other channel…?

Before she could sort out her thoughts, she heard Ye Sihan press on, “Didn’t you say you were going abroad? When are you planning to leave?”

“I was thinking of waiting a few more days, at most no longer than two weeks…” Tang Yu didn’t know why he was changing the subject to ask this.

She did indeed plan to leave, but she just wanted to enjoy her mother’s love a bit longer. There was nothing wrong with that, right?

Ye Sihan drew closer, his cold black eyes looking down on her, his thin lips dangerously curled, “Do you really want to leave that badly?”

Tang Yu, frightened and anxious, questioned with confusion, “…What do you mean?”

Ye Sihan grabbed her chin with one hand, each of his defined fingers filled with strength, causing Tang Yu pain—

“Ow!” It felt as though her cheekbones would be crushed.

“You’re just as cheap as that woman!” Ye Sihan’s face was fierce, and he intensified the pressure on his hand.

“Ah!!” Tang Yu winced in pain, but more overwhelmed with fear. That woman… was he referring to Yu Zhaohui? Ye Sihan… indeed knew. “…You’ve misunderstood…”

Tang Yu struggled to speak, tears rolling down from the corners of her eyes.

“Three years ago, you climbed into my bed, and three years later, you followed me to Jingdu, playing hard to get in front of me. If you dare to scheme against me, you must bear the consequences!” With a shove, Ye Sihan pushed Tang Yu to the floor—

“Ah!” Tang Yu fell to the ground, crying and hastily attempting to explain, “Three years ago was a misunderstanding, I had no idea who you were, if I knew you were in Jingdu, I would never have appeared!”

If she really had been scheming against Ye Sihan, why would she have gone through the trouble of hiding her child!

She could have just produced the child and threatened Ye Sihan!

But she couldn’t say such things.

The dark figure squatting before her loomed over her trembling body, his eyes merciless, “Did you know about that cheap woman funding your education?”

“I knew…” Tang Yu replied, then hastily corrected herself, “But I only found out a few days ago!”

Ye Sihan’s expression turned severe, he stepped forward and grabbed her hair—

“Ah!” Tang Yu’s head was jerked back sharply, feeling as if her scalp was being torn off, “It hurts…”

“I really underestimated you.” Ye Sihan’s eyes were malevolent, his face contorted horribly, his head close to hers, his voice as cold as the Devil’s, “Run, I’ll give you the chance to escape, don’t let me catch you.”

He released her hair forcefully and stood up to leave.

Tang Yu sat on the floor, gasping for breath, feeling a burning pain on her scalp, tears in her eyes, and her body trembling with fear.

She got up from the floor, moved to close the door, then slid down against it, powerless.

Ye Sihan’s threats left her fearful, and he would never believe her words.

Three years ago, she drunkenly wound up in Ye Sihan’s bed, and they met again in Kyoto. It was really just a coincidence!

But if all that could be chalked up to coincidence, Yu Zhaohui’s financial backing for her to study abroad was undoubtedly the most compelling evidence of suspicion.

Ye Sihan must have thought she had been in touch with Yu Zhaohui all along, even believing she seduced him and plotted against him at Zhaohui’s behest.

Tang Yu let her head droop powerlessly. She didn’t know why this was happening; she was innocent…

After feeling dejected for a moment, Tang Yu felt strength return to her body. Right, she had to leave this place.

To get far away from Kyoto.

If Ye Sihan had given her the chance to run, why shouldn’t she seize it?

Once overseas, Ye Sihan wouldn’t be able to do anything to her.

As soon as Li Xue returned, she saw Tang Yu packing clothes and asked, “What are you doing?”

“Sister Xue, I’m going back overseas,” said Tang Yu.

She only had time to explain to Li Xue. As for Yu Zhaohui, she’d deal with that after she had settled down overseas!

“Why? Has something happened?”

“I’ve caught Ye Sihan’s attention.”

Li Xue was utterly confused, speculating, “What did you do to offend him?”

Tang Yu bit her lip and nodded helplessly.

“Is it that serious?”

“The four little ones have just taken you as their godmother, and now we have to leave, I’m sorry, Sister Xue…”

“It’s okay, I can visit you guys in the future. You’re going to bring the kids back now, right?”

Unexpectedly, Tang Yu shook her head, “No, I will go first. Once I’m there, I’ll have to trouble Sister Xue to send the kids on the plane and airfreight them over.”

Li Xue was baffled, “You’re leaving first, and the kids are following later? Why make it so complicated?”

“Just… let’s leave it at that…” Tang Yu had her unspoken difficulties.

She was thinking that if anything unexpected happened, and she couldn’t escape, at least the children wouldn’t be exposed.

This was her last line of defense.

“Take all of these.” Tang Yu handed over the clothes she bought that day to Li Xue.

“All designer brands? Why don’t you wear them yourself?” Li Xue was surprised.

“I bought them for you.” Tang Yu had intentionally bought clothes a size larger.

Li Xue had helped her so much and was now the godmother of her four little ones, and she had never shown her appreciation before.

“Tang Yu, have you struck it rich?” That was the only possibility Li Xue could think of.

“Almost. Don’t worry, I bought these without stealing or robbing.”

Li Xue was still reluctant to see her leave. With this departure, when would she be able to see her godsons and goddaughters again?

“Is there really no room for negotiation with Ye Sihan?” she asked. “What if you sincerely begged him?”

Tang Yu shook her head, “I would like to stay more than anyone, but I can’t…”

Fortunately, she didn’t have much to pack, just a few simple articles of clothing.

Having packed her belongings, she didn’t even let Li Xue escort her but took a taxi straight to the airport.

The airport was somewhat remote, and the taxi ride took almost two hours.

All along the way, Tang Yu was restless, much like someone escaping a disaster.

She kept urging the driver to go faster, to the point where he was getting irritable.

To those unaware, they might think a ghost was chasing them.

However, only Tang Yu herself knew that it was a situation more frightening than being chased by a ghost.

She could only excuse her urgency by saying she was almost too late for her flight.
