Chapter 329: Help! I Stole the Male Lead's Fiancée! 23

Shen Yuan ultimately didn't say anything, but beneath that warm and elegant smile, Su Tang had already caved.

Scared, so scared.

Of course, admitting defeat was one thing, but she also knew how to assess the situation.

Frankly, if someone else had treated her this way, with her fiery temper, she would probably have taught them a harsh lesson.

However, at this moment, a direct confrontation would undoubtedly be suicidal, so she could only feign weakness. This was her only way out.

Originally, after falling into the river, her body had started to feel unwell. Overwhelmed by fright, she had ignored these symptoms. Now that she had calmed down, the discomfort that washed over her made her face pale.

At this time, showing weakness was necessary, but it had to be done skillfully. Blindly apologizing would only make her situation more passive.

Su Tang pursed her lips, her muddled mind trying to recall the questions he had asked earlier.

Then, after thinking for a long time, she decided that since those questions were all life-threatening, she might as well just apologize and be done with it.

"I'm sorry, I lied to you."

The girl's straightforward apology made Shen Yuan raise an eyebrow.

He had always known that she was hiding something from him, but he never expected such a huge surprise, a surprise so great that it was almost a shock. He recalled the year he returned to the country. After confirming his feelings for her, he had hesitated. He had heard of homosexuality, but he never thought he would become one himself.

Coupled with the girl's playboy facade at the time, he had once thought that she liked girls. He had also considered that this path wouldn't be easy, so he had been restraining himself, even forcing himself to forget her. But as time went on, the memories didn't fade. Instead, they became etched into his bones. In the end, he found that he couldn't forget her, nor could he control himself any longer.

He wanted her.

He wasn't homosexual, nor was he heterosexual. The person he truly loved, from beginning to end, was only her.

"You lied to me, and all I get is an apology?"

Su Tang, enduring her discomfort, looked up. Their eyes met, and ultimately, she yielded. She seemed annoyed, and perhaps also guilty. Her already lowered voice became even softer, unlike its previous clarity.

"I have nothing but money, and you probably wouldn't even look at the little money I have." As if finally revealing the secret she had been holding in her heart, she leaned against the headboard, relieved. "If you're angry, I'll resign when we get back. As for the penalty for breach of contract, I'll transfer it to the company's account."

The girl, even in men's clothing, was androgynously beautiful, but he had never considered the possibility that she might actually be a girl.

In men's clothing, she looked thinner than the average boy. Shen Yuan wasn't disgusted, but he felt that as a boy, she should be a bit more robust. He had even thought about making sure she ate properly once he caught her.

He was planning their future, and although there had been an unexpected turn of events, he had never considered separating from her.

But what was she saying now?

In an instant, his handsome face darkened. The faint smile that had played on his lips was now replaced by coldness.

"You want to leave?"

A dangerous aura emanated from him, but Su Tang raised her head. Her chin, which had been pinched earlier, was now red, as if it had been ravaged.

She was lying on his bed, wearing his pajamas, and saying she wanted to leave?!

Shen Yuan was so angry that his eyes were tinged with a thin layer of ruthlessness. "Cheng Ye, what do you take me for?"

The atmosphere grew heavier, but Su Tang suddenly changed the subject, whispering, "Actually, that's not my real name." She lowered her head, her voice even softer, as quiet as a mosquito's buzz. "My name is Ye Jiao."

Shen Yuan: …

Shen Yuan: ???

"Say that again. What's your name?"

Su Tang spoke a little louder this time, but she still didn't dare look at him. "I said, Cheng Ye is a fake name, just like my gender. My real name is Ye Jiao. As for the one in America, she's a double I paid for."

Shen Yuan froze, and after a long time, finally found his voice.

"Ye Jiao?"

Su Tang nodded.

Shen Yuan, "The same Ye Jiao whose engagement I announced I was breaking off in the newspaper?"

Su Tang…

Su Tang continued to nod.

Shen Yuan laughed in anger, his chest vibrating slightly. "Ye Jiao, very good, very good! Is there anything else you're hiding from me? Tell me everything today."

Su Tang shrank her head like a pitiful, bullied kitten, her fur all droopy.

"Nothing else, just this. You know everything else." She continued to apologize, "I'm sorry."

Shen Yuan was so angry that his breathing became uneven.

Who wanted her apology?

Su Tang was already dizzy and lightheaded, but she continued to apologize. "I'm sorry, I know I lied to you. Whether you want to hit me or scold me, I definitely won't fight back."

Shen Yuan was in a fit of anger, but he quickly noticed something was wrong with her.

The girl's face, which had been pale earlier, was now flushed, and her voice had become weak. Yet, even so, she didn't forget to apologize.

Shen Yuan quickly connected this to her falling into the river earlier. His anger instantly dissipated. Or rather, even if he was angry, he had to wait until she recovered.

He reached out and touched her forehead, only to find it alarmingly hot.

"I'll go get the family doctor."

Su Tang grabbed his hand. "Let's go home first." Her voice was weak, making it sound heartbreaking. "I don't want to see the Ye family."

Today was Shen Ling's engagement to the second Miss Ye. Regardless of whether the Shen family actually cared about this marriage, for now, the Ye family was undoubtedly tied to the Shen family.

Shen Yuan's heart ached. He had heard a little about this fiancée he had never met and knew that she had a difficult life. He had even considered using her as a shield and didn't mind compensating her. He just didn't expect that the person he had been longing for was actually right beside him.

Thinking of all the hardships she had endured in the past, Shen Yuan's anger completely vanished.

"Okay, we won't see them. I'll take you home."

Back to the home they shared, just the two of them.

"Ding, Blackening Value decreased by 20%, current Blackening Index: 60%."

Su Tang didn't remain unconscious for long. When she woke up, an IV drip was attached to the back of her hand, and the doctor was talking to Shen Yuan.

"Her physical condition is very poor, her resistance is weak, and most importantly, there's stagnation in her chest. Over time, this will make it difficult for her to breathe. These aren't major problems, but she's only in her early twenties. As she gets older, these illnesses, while not fatal, will make her dependent on medication."

Shen Yuan suddenly thought of the long cloth he had washed earlier. "She used to bind her chest."

To disguise herself as a man, her chest had to be flat, so that cloth served only one purpose.

The doctor glared angrily. "What nonsense! If this stagnation isn't resolved, she'll be out of breath after just a few steps. From now on, not only can she not bind her chest, but she also needs regular massages."
