He broke his vows for her, and a tycoon descended to earth for love.

Chapter 337 Ending Countdown 6

This person is really tactless, but Siyi, with her good manners and upbringing, wouldn't show it too much even if she was unhappy. She forced a smile, but her tone was a bit sharp, "The plane has landed, of course I have to leave. Do you expect me to spend the night in the cabin?"

"Then let's go together." She had already put on a tough front, but the man still foolishly came closer. "I'm here to relax and unwind too, so we can look after each other."

"No need." Siyi didn't even want to smile anymore. She stood up and walked past him to leave. "I don't really like being with strangers."

.........

The man, having made a fool of himself, watched Siyi quickly leave the cabin, shrugged helplessly, and followed her out.

---

This wasn't Siyi's first time in the United States; she used to travel around a lot when she was studying. The seasons here are much better than in England, and the winters seem much warmer than in City A. It's early spring now, and a simple jacket is enough.

She walked down the street; it was one o'clock in the afternoon, and many people were already having lunch. Siyi also felt a little hungry. She hadn't eaten much of the food on the plane, so she randomly picked a coffee shop, looked at the menu, and ordered lunch. When the dish finally arrived, it was basically a beef roll stuffed with some vegetables, eggs, and dried cheese. She didn't have much of an appetite, so she only ate a few bites before putting it down and slowly sipping her espresso.

Her delicate brows furrowed involuntarily; she still found it difficult to get used to the coffee here. Cappuccino was alright, but the extra espresso, even a small sip, would make her heart pound uncontrollably, as if she'd been given a whole bottle of stimulants.

But then she thought about it again, and realized that she really needed stimulants right now so that she could stay alert at all times.

In fact, she knew very well that the reason she didn't immediately take a car to find Ye Xiongming was because she wasn't fully mentally prepared yet.

If everything Lin Zhenbiao said is true, if his elder brother really is his...

Siyi still couldn't accept all of that in such a short time. She reached up and rested her chin on her hand, feeling a splitting headache.

She spent most of the day aimlessly. When she finally called over the waiter to pay the bill, she froze, speechless for a long time.

It turned out that her bag, which she had left aside, had been ripped open, and her wallet, passport, and everything else were gone.

She was all alone and was immediately dumbfounded.

The waiter shrugged and said a few words with a hint of pity. Siyi understood what he meant; he was asking if she needed to call a friend or family member for help. But she stared back at him blankly, her face full of confusion.

Family? Friends? She had nothing. Even her phone was taken by Lin Zhenbiao's men before she boarded the plane.

What should I do next? Should I go to the police station? Or seek help from the embassy?

"Hey, what a coincidence!"

The familiar Chinese language gave Siyi a sense of security, as if she had grabbed a piece of driftwood. She looked up anxiously and saw a tall man standing in front of her, asking with a questioning look, "What's wrong?"

It was that tactless man on the plane!

His appearance at this moment was clearly a godsend. Siyi came to her senses and stammered, "My wallet was stolen!"

The man looked at her with sympathy, generously paid her the money first, then exchanged a few words with the waiter, and pulled her up, saying, "Let's go."

"To the police station?"

He didn't speak, but walked quickly, glancing around as he went.

She followed him blankly until they stopped in front of a trash can. The man lifted the lid, rolled up his sleeves, and rummaged through it, seemingly finding nothing. Undeterred, he searched every trash can on the street until he finally pulled out a passport and several credit cards from the last one.

"Yours?" He flipped it open smugly, glanced at the photo and name on the passport, and raised an eyebrow. "Ye Siyi?"

"It's mine!" Somewhat incredulous, she reached out and took it. She looked at the man in front of her with gratitude and suddenly realized that he was quite pleasing to the eye—he made people feel comfortable. Just like his attire, he should be a recent graduate who had just entered the workforce.

"Now I finally know your name, beautiful lady. Just like you, you have a unique charm!" The man generously handed her everything and extended his hand. "Now can we be friends? My name is Shang Yuan."

"Hello," Siyi said sincerely, "and thank you! But how did you know my things would be in the trash can?"

“Because…that’s how these foreign thieves are. They steal money and cash, but they can’t use passports and credit cards, so why not return them to the victims? Throwing them in the nearby trash can is their usual practice.” Shang Yuan grinned. “I also know a friend of mine, and that thief was very kind and mailed all the documents he didn’t need back to him from his bag.”

"How interesting." She couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Also, with such an expensive bag, who else would a thief steal from but you?" Shang Yuan tugged at the double-C bag that was already ripped open. "When you're out and about, don't flaunt your wealth, understand?"

Siyi awkwardly adjusted her bag and didn't say anything more.

However, they naturally ended up strolling together through several streets. Shang Yuan seemed to know everything about the area well, taking her to many places. Moreover, he was witty and humorous. Si Yi didn't say much along the way; he did most of the talking, and she just listened. She didn't know how much she actually absorbed.

However, Shang Yuan was quite patient. Regardless of whether Si Yi listened to what he said or responded to him, he seemed to be in a state of excitement.

As darkness fell, Siyi finally realized that she could no longer continue wandering aimlessly. She needed to find Ye Xiongming. She couldn't forget the purpose of her visit. If retreating could make it seem like nothing had happened, then what would be the point of having a word like "face" in this world?

"Shangyuan, I need to go somewhere..."

"Hey, Ye Siyi, have you offended someone?"

Just as Siyi was about to say something, the man beside her suddenly pulled her close, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, "Several people have been following you for a long time. Don't turn around!"

Siyi was startled by his rambling manner and instinctively tried to turn her face away, but Shang Yuan cupped her cheeks and shook his head at her. "Wouldn't turning around alert them? Come on, look at this." As he spoke, he took a small mirror out of his pocket and placed it in front of her. "See? I've been observing them for a long time. Do you know those two? They've been following you all this way!"

Through the camera lens, she could indeed see several men in black following not far behind her. They all appeared to be of East Asian appearance, but Siyi did not recognize them. However, she already had a vague idea of ​​what was going on in her mind.

As expected, Lin Zhenbiao was completely untrustworthy. However, it was unexpected that she had transited through England to the United States that very day. These people were incredibly fast, catching up immediately. What was their purpose? To eliminate her completely?

.........

"Hi, Ye Siyi?!"

Seeing that Siyi hadn't made a move, Shang Yuan, who was standing to the side, got a little anxious. He put away the small mirror, grabbed her wrist, and said, "Why don't we run away quickly! I don't think they're good people. Maybe they're just after your good looks!"

Siyi was both amused and exasperated by his words. However, she wasn't used to other men touching her body so intimately, and she subconsciously struggled a little. Shang Yuan probably realized that his behavior had gone a bit too far, and he smiled awkwardly, "Sorry, it was just a moment of panic. I know that Chinese women are quite conservative, and we say that men and women should not touch each other, right?"

Aren't you Chinese?

"I am Chinese, but I grew up abroad."

Siyi had no interest in his upbringing. She simply said, "Thank you for helping me today, but what happens next is none of your business. These people are indeed not good people, but you'd better not get involved. I can handle it myself. I'm leaving. Goodbye."

"Hey, wait a minute—"

Shang Yuan quickly caught up, originally intending to take Si Yi's hand, but seeing that she strongly resisted his touch, he learned his lesson this time and raised his hands in a gesture of surrender. "Ye Si Yi, don't be so sensitive. Since we've met by chance, we're friends, you know? You're just a little woman, and you're being followed in a place like this. I didn't know, so I didn't care, but now that I know, how can I just sit idly by? I'll take you away."

"Really, it's not necessary." She didn't want to trouble others with her affairs, and she knew Lin Zhenbiao was not someone to be trifled with. She could bear whatever happened to herself, but dragging others down with her was not what she wanted.

"Don't talk. If we keep pulling and tugging like this, it'll be completely dark by the time we get to the race." Shang Yuan was really stubborn to the end. Ignoring Si Yi's objections, he gritted his teeth, grabbed her slender waist, and pulled her forward, saying as he walked, "I didn't tell you, did I? Actually, I also grew up in the United States, and I have relatives there. So you can rely on me now. Don't worry, I won't take advantage of you, but I have the spirit to help those in need!"

Siyi wanted to say something more, but considering the current situation wasn't very optimistic, and she could tell that this man named Shang Yuan was completely unreasonable, she decided to let it go. It was better to have someone help her than no one help her; at least she didn't want to really die here.

Shang Yuan led Si Yi through a maze of turns, mostly taking the most crowded routes, which naturally deterred the people following behind from making any rash moves. However, he clearly hadn't expected that, seeing that the time was almost up, those people finally couldn't hold back any longer. Just as the two of them turned a corner and crossed a street, several tall and burly men suddenly appeared from the opposite direction.

The man in the lead spoke fluent Chinese, pointed at Shang Yuan, and said, "Kid, this is none of your business. If you know what's good for you, get out of here!" He then said to Si Yi, "Miss Ye, we just want to ask you to come over. As long as you cooperate with us, we won't hurt you."

"Tch, I really don't know what the word 'know your place' means!" Before Siyi could reply, Shang Yuan snorted coldly, flicked his nose, and said arrogantly, "You guys, all grown men, have been following this beauty the whole way, and now you're saying you're going to take her away? Do you think everyone's an idiot?"

"I told you it has nothing to do with you, are you looking for death?!"

"Who's courting death is still uncertain! You want to take her away? You'll have to face my fists first!"

Siyi was pushed away by Shang Yuan, and several men pounced on her. She instinctively covered her mouth, swallowing her scream. She watched helplessly as Shang Yuan fought off four or five men single-handedly. She had initially thought he wouldn't be able to hold his own, but the young man was surprisingly skilled, taking down several in a few moves. It wasn't until the last man, the leader, fought him that he was unfortunately struck in the face. Siyi's heart skipped a beat, and she yelled for attention. Shang Yuan, taking a moment to turn to her, said, "No problem, I can handle this. Get out of the way!"

Siyi had seen men like Jiang Yanhui who could be so wicked they were speechless, so she wasn't really bothered by this guy named Shang Yuan. Besides, he was quite skilled, and soon he had beaten everyone down. Then he grabbed her hand, and the two of them ran quite a distance before they finally stopped.

Siyi was a little out of breath. Seeing the bruises on his body, she said somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm so sorry, you got hurt because of me. Otherwise, I would have taken you to the hospital now, your face is bleeding."

"No problem." Shang Yuan casually wiped his cheek and grinned. "Actually, you don't need to go to any other hospital. I'll take you to my house."

"what?"

"Don't get me wrong, I mean my family owns a hospital, and my brother is a doctor. Anyway, you don't have any other business in America, and there are people chasing you. Why don't you come with me to my brother's place to hide for a while? I can also take care of my wound."

Siyi quickly waved her hand, "This...isn't that a bit inappropriate? Actually...I'm very grateful for your help just now, but I didn't come to America just for tourism. I have other things to do, so..."

"What's wrong? Whatever it is, you can't go alone now." Shang Yuan's enthusiasm was almost too much for Si Yi to handle. "Besides, I'm in this state, you should come with me to the hospital... Sigh, never mind, someone's catching up with us again, hurry up and run with me!"
