"Huo Yanzhi, are you sick? What I do has nothing to do with you? What right do you have to tell me what to do, based on the hurt you've caused me time and time again?"
“Ningning, you can be angry with me, you can resent me, but you can’t hurt my brother. He is my only family in this world, and I absolutely will not allow it.”
Ye Xinning was annoyed by Huo Yanzhi's nagging. She took a deep breath and said, "Huo Yanzhi, I will produce evidence to prove that your brother has harmed me many times. As for my people, they have nothing to do with you."
She was about to leave after saying that, but Huo Yanzhi still held her hand tightly. Just as Ye Xinning was thinking about how to get away from this crazy Huo Yanzhi, a figure suddenly flashed in front of her, and the next second the man's solid fist landed on Huo Yanzhi's face.
Ye Xinning stepped back, finally able to see clearly who it was—none other than Shen Lin.
Huo Yanzhi took a solid punch, and blood gushed from the corner of his mouth. He looked at Shen Lin, this was the first time he had faced Shen Lin since Shen Lin divorced Ye Xinning.
"What, Mr. Shen, are you trying to avenge your ex-wife?" He asked with a smile, but his eyes were icy cold.
Provoked by the word "ex-wife" in his mouth, Shen Lin swung his fist at Huo Yanzhi again. This time, Huo Yanzhi did not stand by and let Shen Lin do as he pleased. He also swung his fist, and the two of them exchanged punches. Before long, both of them were covered in injuries.
The commotion was quite loud and quickly attracted the attention of the people inside the law firm. Xiao Chen and Ye Xiaoxiao came out and saw the two fighting. Xiao Chen quickly called security guards to stop them. Then he looked at Ye Xinning, who was standing to the side with her arms crossed and not saying anything.
Xiao Chen asked in surprise, "Aren't you going to go and pull them apart? If I'm not mistaken, these two started fighting because of you, right?"
Ye Xinning remained silent, looking down at her thin arms and legs.
Xiao Chen didn't understand her meaning for a moment. "What do you mean?"
Ye Xinning turned her head to look at Xiao Chen, and when she turned back to speak, her voice was very calm, making it impossible to discern her true emotions.
"If I go in and stop them from fighting, it means they don't really want to fight. But if I can't stop them, what do you think are the chances of me getting accidentally injured?"
Xiao Chen, "..."
Ye Xinning continued, "So you're still wondering why I didn't go up and pull them apart?"
Xiao Chen, "..."
He didn't know how to refute Ye Xinning's words, "Aren't you worried about them getting hurt?"
"It's not like I told them to beat them up. Does it really matter whether I'm worried or not?"
This time, Xiao Chen was completely at a loss for words.
Shen Lin and Huo Yanzhi were pulled apart, both with injuries on their faces. Shen Lin's face was filled with a bloodthirsty coldness. "Huo Yanzhi, what right do you have to see her?"
Huo Yanzhi looked at Shen Lin and felt that there was something different about Shen Lin this time. He looked at Ye Xinning, then at Shen Lin, and spoke uncertainly.
"You've regained your memories?"
"Yes, I've regained my memories. What, you didn't expect that, did you? Huo Yanzhi, let's settle our score about the grudges from five years ago today."
Huo Yanzhi curled his lips and laughed out loud, "Grievance? What grudge do I have with you, Shen Lin?"
"You caused Ningning to miscarry and imprisoned her. Aren't these considered grudges?"
"I did so much just to protect her, to let her see clearly what kind of person is right for her. Besides, Shen Lin, everyone remembers what happened to you, but forgets everything related to her. Do you still think you love her? If you do, how could you forget?"
Huo Yanzhi's questions, one after another, made Shen Lin's face grow increasingly grim.
Shen Lin loves Ye Xinning. This love has been deeply ingrained in his bones for five years. Even though he temporarily forgot about this deep love due to some accidents, this feeling is definitely still there now.
"It's none of your business to interfere in my affairs."
"My affairs are none of Mr. Shen's business. It's my freedom to associate with whomever I want. Besides, Mr. Shen thinks I hurt Ningning, but didn't you hurt her too? If you knew how to cherish her, why would Ningning have divorced you?"
What Shen Lin can't stand the thought of others talking about his divorce from Ye Xinning is that it came from the mouth of a man who covets Ye Xinning.
He broke free from the people around him and, without saying a word, raised his fist at Huo Yanzhi again.
Caught off guard, Huo Yanzhi was punched again, and the injury on his face was already quite obvious.
At this moment, Shen Lin had completely lost his mind; all he wanted was to seek justice for the unborn child whose life had been taken by Huo Yanzhi.
Seeing that Shen Lin was out of control, Xiao Chen anxiously said to Ye Xinning, "Say something!"
"say what?"
"You don't want to cause any trouble and end up being summoned by the court, do you? You're a lawyer, you should know how things are developing right now, you can't escape responsibility."
Ye Xinning, "..."
Xiao Chen was right. No matter how much Shen Lin and Huo Yanzhi fought, she couldn't extricate herself.
She sighed, stepped forward, and took Shen Lin's hand. "Shen Lin."
The soft voice made Shen Lin stop what he was doing. He turned to look at Ye Xinning, his gaze filled with a tenderness that Ye Xinning couldn't understand.
"Ningning."
Ye Xinning ignored the complex emotions in Shen Lin's eyes, "If you want revenge, using force is the most foolish way."
Shen Lin stared into her eyes, and in that moment of eye contact, the darkness in Shen Lin's gaze gradually dissipated.
Xiao Chen watched from the side and breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, only Ye Xinning could have some effect on Shen Lin.
"He's harassing you," Shen Lin said in a low, hoarse voice.
"I can handle my own problems."
"But I don't want him to have any contact with you."
Ye Xinning lowered her eyes and saw that Shen Lin's hands were covered in wounds with blood flowing out. Recalling what he had just said, she pondered in silence for a moment, then raised her head again, looking somewhat helpless, as if she had temporarily compromised.
"Let's go, I'll take you home."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lin's dim eyes instantly lit up. He looked at Ye Xinning in disbelief, "You mean, take me back?"
"Um."
“Okay, let’s go back together.” Shen Lin’s gaze softened completely. He took Ye Xinning’s hand and led her away.
...
Back at Ming Mansion, Shen Lin looked at Ye Xinning countless times along the way. This was the first time Ye Xinning had been willing to come back with him since their divorce.
Whatever the reason, she is now with him, stepping back into the house that belongs to the two of them.
As Ye Xinning walked into the living room with Shen Lin, she stopped.
Shen Lin was as happy as a child, calling out loudly to Aunt Ning.
"Aunt Ning."
Aunt Ning came out and was surprised to see Ye Xinning return. "Madam, you're back?"
