Perfect Secret Love

Chapter 2272: The sky has collapsed!?

"Director Si!" Qin Xiyuan immediately called out.

Si Yehan paused in his steps. "Miss Qin."

"I heard Director Si has recently been arranging law proposals and suggesting great reforms. I've been

wanting to discuss them with you. Are you free tonight?" Qin Xiyuan extended the invitation with a

charming smile and a confident expression.

Qin Xiyuan's suggestion was clearly very enticing. In other words, if he wanted to pass the bill, she'd be

of great assistance regardless of how you looked at it.

"I am not." Si Yehan didn't consider it for even one second.

"What about tomorrow night?" Qin Xiyuan was persistent.

In contrast to his careful deliberation of every word when it was Ye Wanwan, Si Yehan was evidently

too lazy to even make an excuse when it was Qin Xiyuan.

Hence, Si Yehan directly glanced at Lin Que.

Lin Que had no choice but to clean up after him. He cleared his throat and said, "I'm truly sorry, Miss

Qin. The director has been busy with preparations for the summit recently, so he really doesn't have

any free time."

At the continual rejection, the smile on Qin Xiyuan's face finally ebbed. "Perhaps Director Si doesn't

know, but your adopted brother, Yin Heng, has been asking me out recently. Director Si is a smart

person, so you should know what that means."

If he married her, he'd advance smoothly in his career. Moreover, she was the most beautiful woman in

Tianshui City, so there wasn't a man in the Twelve Independent States who didn't want to marry her.

Hence, if she chose Yin Heng, Si Yehan would lose his right of inheritance and might even ruin his

career path. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

At the same time, in the Yin residence:

"How are things?" Yin Yuerong had a teacup in hand.

"Madam, Miss Qin looks fondly on the Young Master, but unfortunately, the Young Master, he..."

"Hmph! I knew it! He's been bewitched to the point of losing all logic by that wild girl! He'll willing to

forfeit his clan and future for a mere woman!"

After some hesitation, the steward furtively said, "Madam, actually, Miss Nie's family background is

decent. I also heard that her performance in Scarlet Flames Academy was excellent too.

"Although her personality is a bit eccentric, Young Master has a reticent personality, so he'd be a good

contrast. Since Young Master and Miss Nie are earnestly in love with each other, why must you

separate them? You're deepening Young Master's misunderstanding toward you for nothing..."

When Yin Yuerong heard that, it was like she'd heard some absurd joke. "Earnestly in love with each

other? Love is the most ridiculous and fake thing in this world! I told him a million times but he insists

on walking my old path!"

"Ah, Madam, even if you punish me, I have to say this. Your thoughts are truly too radical. Young

Master isn't you. He might not follow the same old disastrous road..."

Yin Yuerong snorted. "Heh, sure. Then I'd like to see how deeply in love they are with each other and

how great a test they can withstand!"

...

Late at night, in a mansion on the outskirts of Tianshui City, Si Yehan spent the whole night taking care

of business affairs.

In the early morning the next day, Lin Que suddenly rushed into Si Yehan's study, his expression

looking like the sky had collapsed.

"Ninth Brother! Ninth Brother! It's over! We're truly dead this time!" Lin Que was gasping for air with a

newspaper in hand.

Si Yehan had dark circles under his eyes from staying up all night. He continued to read the documents

without looking up.

Lin Que couldn't be any more hasty. "Ninth Brother, stop what you're doing! The sky is about to

collapse! Hurry and look at this newspaper!"

Si Yehan finally looked up, glancing at the newspaper Lin Que was handing to him.

The next second, Si Yehan's expression changed.
