Chapter 57: That Is Fate

Liu Wenyuan grinned hideously, not saying a single word.

"Do you believe I will kill you?" Chen Yu said coldly.

"Go ahead and kill me." Liu Wenyuan continued to smile; he refused to say another word.

Chen Yu raised his fist, staring at him intently; if he wanted to, a single punch could take Liu Wenyuan's Life.

However, what was the point of killing him? The facts could never be changed.

"You don't have to talk, but I will make you watch with your own eyes as I figure out what is going on."

Throwing Liu Wenyuan onto the ground, Chen Yu turned and left.

A cold wind blew, and Chen Yu's thoughts were somewhat chaotic; Liu Wenyuan's words had dealt him too great a shock.

From his tone, it was not hard to see that he seemed to know Chen Yu's identity, and his past life seemed to have been targeted by someone; betrayed by close friends and his wife, executed by firing squad, reborn, meeting Ye Xinyu—it seemed as if everything was being manipulated from behind the scenes by an invisible, massive hand.

In the dark, who exactly was manipulating Reincarnation and playing with Life?

Closing his eyes, his past and present lives, the people he held dear and loved, flashed through his mind like a movie; Ye Xinyu's smile appeared before his eyes, and Chen Yu suddenly opened his eyes, shouting toward the sky...

"No matter who is manipulating my Life, there is only one thing I must do, and that is to protect those around me whom I hold dear and love. You may be able to manipulate Life, but I can break free from it."

"I, Chen Yu, do not believe in Life, and even less will I let anyone control my Life."

Boom—a bolt of lightning streaked across the clear night sky, as if the heavens had been split in two, and the entire city was illuminated by the lightning... Immediately following, a torrential rain poured down; in the rain, Chen Yu walked with firm steps toward the distance.

The next morning, when Ye Xinyu woke up, Chen Yu had already prepared the medicinal meal.

"Blood Nourishing and Fetal Calming Soup, to nourish the blood and boost Qi, strengthen the kidneys and calm the fetus." Chen Yu smiled and said, "Don't go to the company for these few days; I'll ask for leave for you, just rest your body well."

"I'm not that delicate," Ye Xinyu said.

"Be good, listen to me; wasn't the way you looked yesterday frightening?" Chen Yu said, "Rest for a few days."

"Mm, I'll listen to you." Ye Xinyu gave a sweet smile.

"Sister, wuwu, Fang Chen is just a piece of trash..." Just as they started eating, Ye Qian ran over, crying very sadly.

"Why are you here, Qianqian? Did he bully you?" Ye Xinyu was slightly stunned and hurriedly comforted her sister.

"He, he is just a piece of trash; he has so many women outside, I caught him yesterday, and he even hit me." Ye Qian cried very sadly, "Mom and Dad even told me to endure it, saying Fang Chen has money, and what rich man doesn't have a pile of women outside?"

"They really said that?" Ye Xinyu was angry.

"Sister, I'm really very sad. I like Fang Chen, and it's not entirely because he has money. I've been wronged, and Mom and Dad don't stand on my side, but instead tell me to bow my head; why?" Ye Qian cried even harder.

"Alright Qianqian, don't be sad anymore; move over here and stay with me for a few days." Ye Xinyu hurriedly comforted her.

"Ah? That wouldn't be very convenient, would it?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned.

"What's inconvenient about it? This is my sister, and we have such a big house." Ye Xinyu hugged Ye Qian.

"Fine, fine, stay for a few days, stay as long as you like." Chen Yu didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Just at this moment, Fang Chen's call came through; Ye Qian pressed the speakerphone and said angrily, "Fang Chen, what are you doing? I'm telling you, I won't forgive you; it's no use trying to coax me."

"Coax you?" Fang Chen sneered, "Ye Qian, I am now officially telling you that I am here to break up with you."

"What did you say? You want to break up?" Ye Qian was stunned; she had thought Fang Chen was coaxing her, who knew it was actually a breakup.

"Do you really think I'm short of women? Don't put on that 'refined young lady' act; I have a net worth of tens of millions, what kind of woman can't I get?" Fang Chen sneered.

"Break up then, you think I'm really lacking men?" Ye Qian was also angry; she wasn't the type to shamelessly cling to someone.

"Alright then, the bags, jewelry, and car I gave you before, return them all to me as cash now, totaling five hundred thousand; bring the money within three days, or I will sue you in court, and then we'll see if you still have the face to stay in Fengling."

"The things can be returned to you, but what about you deceiving my sister's feelings? You wait, I'm going to find you to reason with you right now." Ye Xinyu said angrily.

"Am I afraid of you? Stop putting on airs; we've been together for half a year and you wouldn't even let me touch you, do you really think you're gold-plated? Three days, convert the items into cash for me, otherwise, we'll see." Fang Chen hung up the phone with a 'snap'.

"Sister, what do I do? He's bullying me too much." Ye Qian started crying again.

"Let's go, I'll take you to reason with him." Ye Xinyu grabbed Ye Qian and was about to leave.

"Your body just recovered, you can't get angry." Chen Yu hurriedly stopped her and helped her sit down.

"But this jerk is bullying my sister, and Mom and Dad don't care; I can't just sit by and do nothing." Ye Xinyu's lingering anger had not yet subsided.

"Leave this matter to me; I'll go solve it for Qianqian," Chen Yu said, "You wait at home in peace."

"Brother-in-law, how will you solve it? That jerk Fang Chen is a hooligan, and he knows quite a few thugs." On the way, Ye Qian said with some trepidation.

"If he's a hooligan, then we'll use a hooligan's methods to deal with him. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Chen Yu smiled and left with Ye Qian.

The scale of Fang Chen's family company was not too small, after all, the annual profit was over ten million; Chen Yu took Ye Qian directly to his office and kicked the door open with a bang.

A scream rang out in the office; a female assistant was seen jumping off Fang Chen's lap, disheveled, and picking up her clothes to cover her exposed skin. Fang Chen was also startled, but when he saw Chen Yu and Ye Qian, he wasn't so panicked anymore.

"Ye Qian, why did you bring this good-for-nothing here?" Fang Chen waved his hand unhurriedly, and the female assistant hurriedly put on her clothes and rushed out.

"Fang Chen, you jerk." Ye Qian was furious, "We had already reached the point of discussing marriage, yet you were still out there chasing women. I came today to tell you that it was I who dumped you."

"Dumped me? Fine, return everything I gave you to me as cash." Fang Chen had a rogue-like attitude.

"I will return everything to you, not a single item will be missing." Ye Qian said angrily.

"I don't want the items, I want money; give me the amount on my receipts, I don't want second-hand goods." Fang Chen lit a cigarette.

"Scum, trash, garbage..." Ye Qian cursed every dirty word she could think of; she really didn't know how else to vent about this scumbag.

"Curse all you want, but you have to pay me back for what I spent on you over the past half year." Fang Chen lit a cigar.

"Mm, the money can be returned to you, but how do you account for the feelings Qianqian invested in you?" Chen Yu stepped forward.

"Heh, feelings? Don't be ridiculous, Chen Yu; wasn't she, along with her parents and older brother, just eyeing the fact that I have money? If I didn't have money, would she have invested feelings in me?" Fang Chen sneered, "Aren't all women like this? Don't act like you've invested so much."

"As long as there is money, this kind of woman can invest feelings in you at will, right?"

"Fang Chen, you jerk." Ye Qian was trembling with anger; she picked up a cup of water and splashed it fiercely onto Fang Chen.

"Bitch, you're looking for a beating, aren't you?" Fang Chen was furious; he wouldn't be polite to Ye Qian now. He stood up, raised his palm, and swung it toward Ye Qian's face.

Chen Yu grabbed his hand: "Fang Chen, let's talk, don't use your hands."

"Heh, you've never hit a woman? Chen Yu, you didn't think you were wrong when you hit your wife, did you? Besides, for this kind of woman, if I hit her, I hit her; if you dare to meddle again, I'll deal with you too."

Chen Yu frowned, and suddenly he raised his palm and slapped Fang Chen's face hard.
