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

Chapter 306 Sudden Fall

Actually, she was quite lucky; the incident happened in City B. If it had happened in City A, she would definitely be under protection by now and wouldn't be able to leave so easily. She knew her older brother was currently mobilizing manpower, since it wasn't their territory, and even contacting the local police station would take time.

Once in the car, she didn't hesitate for a moment, started the engine, stepped on the gas, and the car made a turn in the parking lot before speeding away.

The journey to the construction site wasn't long, but after driving off, Siyi noticed the sky had darkened. She remembered seeing on the news that a strong typhoon had passed through B City, but she hadn't expected it to happen today. There weren't many people on the streets anymore, and the wind was howling, making the roadside trees dance wildly. She drove faster and faster, shortening what should have been a half-hour drive to twenty minutes.

Cars couldn't drive into the construction site, so Siyi had to park her car on the side of the road. She got out and trudged into the site. Because of the recent work stoppage, there weren't many people there. When she talked about Xiao Wu, Jiang Yan had mentioned that it seemed like work wouldn't resume normally until next week. With the unusual weather today, there wasn't a soul in sight. Siyi craned her neck and looked, and sure enough, she saw a small red dot on the top floor.

It must be Ying Rui!

She tightened her grip on her sides, took a deep breath, and headed towards the elevator, quickly reaching the top floor.

Siyi doesn't have a severe fear of heights, and she had been to this place not long ago. Although the wind was particularly strong today, she didn't feel much panic when she stood on the top floor.

"Attorney Ye, you've finally arrived." Ying Rui appeared calm and even stood boldly on the perimeter, which was not yet fully completed. It seemed that she was much bolder than she had estimated.

Siyi didn't have time for further conversation. With a stern face, she asked directly, "Where is Beibei?"

Ying Rui's brow twitched slightly. Bei Bei?

Isn't that her son's name?

So, the person she went missing was her son? Ah, no wonder she was so nervous; it turns out her grandfather took her son away.

She didn't sit down. Ying Rui's thoughts raced through her mind, and a gloating smile appeared on her face. She raised her eyebrows and said slowly, "What's the rush? Do you think I called you here just to give you your son? You're dreaming. Getting your son is easy. Just promise me a few things, and I'll give him back to you."

Although Siyi's rationality had been largely overwhelmed by her impatience, she still retained some basic analytical skills. "Yingrui, you don't need to talk nonsense. I know what your purpose is. Don't you just want me to leave Yan Hui? Do you know that kidnapping someone for a man is illegal? Do you think you can be with Yan Hui just because I agree to your request? How old are you? Do you want to spend the rest of your life in prison?"

Her words did manage to intimidate Ying Rui, whose expression changed instantly, and her earlier confidence vanished. She was the kind of person who had the desire to steal but lacked the courage; the thought of going to jail instilled some fear in her.

Yes, how old is she?

If this woman goes down here today, will she go back and sue me, saying I kidnapped her son?

No, this won't do... We can't do this!

How could she be so stupid? Grandpa told her to bring Ye Siyi here, but why didn't she ask any more questions?

Kidnapping... She can't afford to be accused of kidnapping!

But then she thought about it again and felt something was wrong. She hadn't kidnapped her, and she hadn't said anything like that from beginning to end. Wasn't this all just Ye Siyi's own speculation? Her goal was just to lure her out and stall for time. What did kidnapping have to do with her?

Thinking about it this way, she felt relieved and smiled. "Attorney Ye, I know you are a lawyer, eloquent and able to make the dead seem alive, but you can't scare me. As for kidnapping, I never said anything like that. You just made that up yourself, didn't you?"

"Ying Rui, I don't have time to waste with you. Tell me now where Bei Bei is, and I can let it go."

"Ha, you're not going to argue with me? What can you possibly argue with me about? When did I ever say that Beibei was in my hands? You're really arrogant!"

"What did you say?" Siyi's heart skipped a beat, only then realizing that this woman was just playing with her. She now regretted running out to see her. Whether or not she knew where Beibei was, she seemed to have no intention of telling her. She bit her lip and glared at her angrily, "Yingrui, you better explain yourself, do you know where Beibei is or not?"

Ying Rui snorted coldly, looking at Si Yi with an arrogant expression, and said sarcastically, "I do know where your son is, but do you want to know? Fine, kneel down and beg me, then I'll consider whether or not to tell you."

Siyi's face darkened. "What did you say?"

"What? Didn't you understand? I told you to kneel down and beg me! Haven't you always thought you were so great? Now I'm going to trample you under my feet, so kneel down!" Ying Rui's face was distorted in ways that didn't suit her age. At this moment, she seemed to think that she was the one who was bound to win the whole situation, with an arrogant look on her face and smugness between her brows.

Siyi took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. She was certain that Ying Rui knew where Beibei was, but she was definitely not with Beibei. The kidnapping must have been Lin Zhenbiao's doing, but since Ying Rui knew about it, she must also know some clues. Although Jiang Yan had already gone to find her grandfather, Siyi still understood that he was still her grandfather, and besides, he had been gone for so long. She couldn't just sit and wait to die. Therefore, she had already analyzed many things on her way here.

Today, she secretly went out to meet Ying Rui, hoping to get some information. Lin Zhenbiao, that devil, has no humanity whatsoever. Who knows if he would harm his own descendants? Didn't he send assassins to try and kill her and her child back then?

It was inevitable that Ying Rui would make things difficult for her, but of course she wouldn't be foolish enough to kneel down. Instead, she cautiously retorted, "You've never even seen my son, have you? If I'm not mistaken, you didn't do the kidnapping. Lin Zhenbiao made you do it, right? Ying Rui, don't make another mistake. Tell me now where Bei Bei is, and I'll pretend nothing happened..."

"shut up!"

Ying Rui let out an angry growl. She suddenly stepped forward, reaching out to grab Si Yi, but Si Yi instinctively dodged to the side. Ying Rui hadn't even touched Si Yi, yet for some unknown reason, her entire body suddenly began to convulse violently. Her face turned deathly pale, her bag fell to the ground with a thud, and she even staggered back two steps, her whole body swaying precariously.

"Ying Rui!"

Siyi was startled, watching helplessly as the red figure retreated backward. Her face looked strange; just moments ago she had been arrogant and disdainful, but now it was completely bloodless. Siyi instinctively took a step forward and reached out to grab her.

"I...uh...Ye...Ye Siyi...what...what did you do to me..."

Ying Rui opened her mouth, only managing to utter these words haltingly, before her body could no longer support her. Her hands instinctively reached for some part of her body, and Si Yi didn't understand what she was trying to do. The whole thing seemed to happen in just two or three seconds; Si Yi's outstretched hand only managed to grab the hem of her clothes before her body collapsed stiffly to the ground.

"Ying Rui! Ying Rui, grab my hand!"

Siyi was terrified, her whole body covered in a cold sweat. This scene had completely caught her off guard. Even if she disliked Yingrui, she certainly didn't want anything to happen to her, especially since this was only one floor high. If she really fell, she would definitely die!

"Ying Rui!!!"

However, her hysterical screams seemed unable to elicit any response from Ying Rui. Si Yi watched as Ying Rui's entire body convulsed unusually, her eyes widening as if she wanted to say or do something, but she simply didn't have the time.

The body, like a kite with a broken string, ran over the outer strings and fell right before her eyes.

Siyi lunged forward, but her hands could only grab Yingrui's hem. As she fell, there was a ripping sound as the fabric tore through the air. Siyi's hand trembled, and the fabric fell with it. She quickly reached out her other hand and grabbed a protruding brick on the wall, preventing herself from falling forward due to inertia.

But Yingrui...

She fell...

Siyi's mind went blank. She had no idea how it all happened. By the time she fully realized what was happening, Yingrui was already falling right before her eyes. Siyi remained motionless in her original position, her heart pounding in her chest. In all her life, she had never witnessed anyone fall like that in front of her. She was truly terrified.

What is going on with all this?

How...how could this happen?

"Young Madam!" Just as Siyi was at a loss, a strange male voice suddenly rang out behind her, followed by a series of hurried footsteps. The next second, Siyi was grabbed, and the male voice angrily questioned her in her ear: "You actually pushed the young madam down the stairs!"
