Chapter 464 He is your benefactor
The people of Starry Night Pavilion searched the sea for a week, but found nothing.
Over the past week, Yan Ye has lost a lot of weight and looks terribly haggard.
Everyone was in a bad mood, and the entire Starry Night Pavilion was shrouded in sadness.
The sea is vast, and their young mistress is probably already...
As Aunt Wu thought about it, she couldn't help but sob again.
"Don't cry, no one is allowed to cry." Yan Ye suddenly raised his eyes and glared at Aunt Wu. "Yi Rou is still alive, she's still alive."
"Yes, young master." Aunt Wu quickly stopped crying, but tears still streamed down her face uncontrollably.
Seeing this, Xue Tao secretly wiped his eyes and pulled Aunt Wu aside to avoid angering Yan Ye.
"Acheng, send someone else to search."
"Yes, young master." Acheng turned and walked out with red eyes, Zhang Qier following behind him, her eyes also red.
Yan Ye forbids others from crying, but when he returns to his bedroom alone and can't sleep all night, he doesn't know how many times he secretly cries.
Outside the window, it was pouring rain; it had been raining all afternoon.
Lu Tingyun stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing at the scenery outside, his mind replaying the scenes that happened a year ago when he led his men to Xingye Pavilion to find Yue Yirou.
At that time, she loved him so much and worried about him so much, and what did he do?
It was all his fault that she later fell in love with Yan Ye; he hadn't cherished her.
He regretted it deeply, but he would never have the chance to cherish her again in this lifetime.
During this week, Lu Tingyun was also immersed in grief. Unlike Yan Ye, he was convinced that Yue Yirou was still alive. From the moment he stepped out of the cabin and saw Yan Ye driving the speedboat and chasing after him, he felt that Yue Yirou had no chance of survival.
This is why he insisted on throwing Jiang Mengru into the sea.
Jiang Mengru was pregnant with his child, and he was somewhat reluctant to let her go, but he wanted to avenge Yue Yirou, though he failed to do so.
Lu Tingyun gazed at the rain outside the window, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled.
He thought about Yue Yirou for a whole week, and grieved for a whole week. It was time to move on from his grief; he had important things to do.
He reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone.
If Yan Ye's secret is revealed to the world at this time, he will definitely break down.
Starry Night Group? Asia's richest man?
Ah!
After a cold laugh to himself, Lu Tingyun turned on his phone, preparing to post the video online, when his phone suddenly rang.
It was a call from Lu Zhihong.
Lu Zhihong treated him fairly well; if he hadn't taken him home, he probably would have died in the orphanage long ago.
Without any hesitation, Lu Tingyun immediately answered the call.
"dad."
“Tingyun.” Lu Zhihong was very pleased.
"Dad, don't worry about me, I'm fine now." Since becoming a fugitive, Lu Zhihong has rarely contacted him. Lu Tingyun thought that he was calling him out of concern, just like before.
Lu Zhihong sighed and said, "Tingyun, there's something I want to tell you."
"What is it?" Lu Tingyun frowned slightly. Had Yan Ye made a move against the Lu Group?
Lu Zhihong sighed again: "I didn't originally plan to tell you about this, because he told me not to, but I feel that you should know, that you need to know."
"Him? Who is he?" Lu Tingyun's brows furrowed even deeper.
"Yan Jiajian. Yan Ye's father."
"Dad, you know Yan Jiajian?" Lu Tingyun was shocked.
“I know him. He’s my benefactor,” Lu Zhihong paused for a moment, then said, “and also your benefactor.”
"Benefactor?" Clearly, they are enemies.
"Tingyun, you joined Black Wind not just to win back Miss Yue, right?"
“That’s right.” Lu Tingyun did not deny it.
“I was right after all.” Lu Zhihong sighed deeply. “Tingyun, the Yan family really can’t be blamed for what happened to your father back then.”
"Dad, if you're calling me to say this, then you don't need to say anything more. I don't want to hear it." Lu Tingyun planned to hang up the phone.
He didn't understand why everyone thought it had nothing to do with the Yan family, even though it was clearly the Yan family that had ruined his family.
“Okay, I won’t talk about that. I called you to tell you that it was actually Yan Jiajian who asked me to bring you back to the Lu family from the orphanage. He gave me a large sum of money to raise you, to provide you with the best food, clothing, shelter, and education.”
"What did you say?" Lu Tingyun was completely stunned.
Was it Yan Jiajian who asked Lu Zhihong to take him home and raise him as his son?
"He never expected your father to choose suicide. When he learned of this, he was shocked and felt guilty. Later, after he sent someone to find out that you had been sent to an orphanage, he came to me and asked me to take you home. The reason he asked me not to tell you about this was because he was worried that if you knew, you would not accept his kindness and would run back to the orphanage. Tingyun, although Yan Jiajian has never shown his face in front of you, he has often called me privately over the years to inquire about your situation. He cares about you very much."
“He was a good man, and even more so, your benefactor. Unfortunately, three years ago… Sigh, Tingyun, I regret not telling you this sooner. If I had told you sooner, you wouldn’t have joined Black Wind and wouldn’t be in this state now.”
The call had ended long ago, and the rain outside the window had long since stopped, but Lu Tingyun was still standing there blankly.
Another week passed, and there was still no news of Yue Yirou. Zhou Xinyu and Xue Tao began to persuade Yan Ye to give up, but Yan Ye refused to give up.
"She's still alive, she's waiting for me." Yan Ye repeated this sentence countless times, sometimes in a low murmur, sometimes in a roar at Xue Tao and the others, and most of the time, he was talking to himself.
Whenever Yan Ye said this, everyone fell silent. They could only advise him to give up, but they dared not tell him anything such as Yue Yirou had no chance of survival.
A month passed without any news from Yue Yirou. Yan Ye started refusing to eat; he didn't want to eat and couldn't eat.
The young master refuses to eat again, what should we do?
Xue Tao and the others were extremely worried.
While everyone was downstairs in the living room, worried and unsure of what to do, the baby in the stroller suddenly burst into tears.
Yan Ye sat blankly in the room, holding the handkerchief Yue Yirou had bought for him, gently stroking each stitch.
"Yi Rou, how could you be so foolish? How could you be so heartless?"
He murmured, his starry eyes filled with pain.
Suddenly, the sound of a baby crying came from outside the door, followed by Xue Tao's anxious voice: "Young Master, Young Master, what's wrong with the young master? He suddenly started crying for no reason, and we can't soothe him no matter what we do."
Xue Tao walked in carrying a crying baby.
