Yue Jingchen was in an irritable mood because of his phone call with Pan Yunfeng. If it was not for Pan Yunfeng and Yue Xingan being discontent and asking for more, he would have been engaged with Yu Zi. They would have now been in the midst of discussing their marriage date and which hotel to book for the banquet. His heart fell at the thought of the mans voice in the background of his phone call with her yesterday and seeing Yu Zi in that Benz SUV.

He wondered whether that man had spent the night or came to her house early in the morning to pick Yu Zi.

He always knew that Yu Zi came from a formidable, financially well-off family and could have easily found herself a man better than him.

This was something that had always made Yue Jingchen feel inadequate. As he watched Yu Zi sitting in that Benz SUV, he could not help but feel that Yu Zi had always been meant to travel around in such a car.

As for him, he could not even afford a Chery QQ.

He got increasingly frustrated about the situation and in a moment of rashness, he told Pan Yunfeng about that mystery man.

It was a bad move telling Pan Yunfeng about this. She immediately went looking for Yu Zi to confront her about this after hanging up the call.

Yue Jingchen knew he made the wrong move and requested an hours leave from his supervisor. He rushed over to stop Pan Yunfeng but he was too late.

When he arrived, he witnessed Pan Yunfeng being escorted from the office building by security. As he walked up to stop Pan Yunfeng, he saw Yu Zi being escorted by Yan Huaian protectively.

Yue Jingchen could not believe his eyes as he watched them act so intimately.

He had previously suspected something was going on, but deep down, he never truly believed that Yu Zi would do anything to betray him.

However, the scene in front of him had convinced him of her betrayal.

As his heart fell into the depths of a black hole, he could not help but feel powerless and ashamed as he watched the benevolent conduct of Yan Huaian.

He did not really want to put himself down, but he could not help the feeling that he could never hold a candle to that man.

He was given a startle when Pan Yunfeng began to shout angrily as she rushed in their direction. He quickly grabbed hold of Pan Yunfeng.

What are you pulling me back for?! Let me beat this adulterous couple to death! Pan Yunfeng tried to shake off Yue Jingchens hands, but Yue Jingchen was still clear-minded enough not to let go of Pan Yunfeng.

Pan Yunfeng was pointing at Yan Huaian and Yu Zi as she faced Yue Jingchen, saying, Just look at them. This is the woman you fell in love with! She had only just cancelled your engagement the day before, and today, she is already clinging onto another man. Dont you be foolish about this and think that she only just got together with him after you broke up! She had obviously made a cuckold out of you and even our entire family was completely unaware of this. I wouldnt be surprised if everyone else but us is aware of the truth and are laughing at us behind our backs!

Mum, stop talking, Yue Jingchen said quietly. He sounded weak but he obviously agreed with her statement.

He could not stop Pan Yunfeng even when he sounded stern, much less now, when he sounded so helpless.

Pan Yunfeng cried and said loudly, What wrong has our family done to deserve this shameless slut?! Who knew that she would hold such terrible conduct despite the fact she comes from such a respectful family?! Dont be fooled by her, son. Now that youve seen for yourself how intimate she is with her lover, what else is there for her to say?! My poor son. Youre such a good man, yet youve gotten yourself into a fix with such a woman. Look how youve tortured yourself because of her, begging her to get back together. How do you think she feels about the whole ordeal? Just look! See for yourself! I was right from the very start. This woman would never stay loyal to you! You defended her then but just see for yourself. The truth is right in front of you!

Yu Zi kept silent. When Yue Jingchen looked over at her, he saw her face filled with disappointment.

He allowed his mother to slander and insult her, not defending her at all. He even believed there was some truth to Pan Yunfengs words and questioned her loyalty.

He did not fully trust her character and it was an insult to her!

Yu Zi gave herself a sarcastic smile. She might not have said a word, but Yue Jingchen was slightly burned by the look on her face and did not dare to look at her directly because of the guilt.

His lips moved as if he wanted to say something but nothing could be heard. All that came out of him was a wimpish, Yu Zi

The two words burned on his tongue. They sounded so strange to him; the pronunciation of the words now sounded foreign to him.

Yu Zi now felt it was an insult for him to even call out her name.

This was a man who did not trust her and questioned her character while he allowed his mum to lash out at her in public and slander her reputation.

If she was someone weak, she would probably be too ashamed to show up at work.

Many employees from the office building were present, even her colleagues from the law firm she was affiliated with. These people now think of her as an immoral woman who cheated with two men.

And all of this was brought on by Yue Jingchen and his mother.

As Yu Zi smiled smugly to herself, Yan Huaian had on a calm expression as he stood by her side.

He had wanted everyone to associate him with Yu Zi and view them as a couple, but not in this way.

Yan Huaian said coldly to Yue Jingchen, Are you really going to stand by and let Yu Zi be insulted, tarnishing her reputation with everyone here? You may have broken up, but she was once your girlfriend, after all. Shouldnt you know her character by now? You are allowing your mother to insult Yu Zi freely without a word of defence on her behalf. You obviously have no trust in Yu Zi. This alone proves that you do not deserve Yu Zi to give you another chance. Even I cant stand the way you are acting. Doubting the character of your girlfriend, not even having the ability to protect the woman you love makes you unworthy of loving Yu Zi. Your love for her is cheap. Youre not worthy of her.

Yan Huaians words hit home in Yu Zis heart. These were words she could never say out loud, but Yan Huaian had said it for her.

Yan Huaian had seen clearly what Yue Jingchen had failed to realize. Yu Zi could not help raising her head to look at Yan Huaian.

Yan Huaian noticed her movement and lowered his head to give her a warm smile. It surprisingly calmed Yu Zi down. She instinctively returned a smile.

She had not noticed it then, but her eyes were filled with trust for him.

Yue Jingchen felt like Yan Huaian had seen right through him and was now furious from the shame. He watched as Yan Huaian put his arms around Yu Zi and of how intimate the behaviour between one another was. He clenched his fist in anger. His hands-on her shoulders stood out like a sore thumb. Yu Zi and Yan Huaian looked as if they were meant for each other. There was a sense of rapport between them which made them look like a good fit.

This is between me and Yu Zi. There is no need for an outsider to get involved in our business, Yue Jingchen said darkly.

Yan Huaian snorted coldly, Youve already broken up with her. Youre not as involved as you think. Besides, you cant even protect her. Youre allowing her to be publicly ridiculed. What right do you have to stop me from saying something about it? This lady claims that Yu Zi cheated on you. Im sorry to say that she is wrong. Yu Zi is not in a relationship with me, but I admit that Ive liked Yu Zi for a long time. When she had a boyfriend, she didnt even give me a second look. Now that Ive finally waited long enough for her to single, I wont let the opportunity to court her slip away. I need to act immediately before she becomes someone elses girlfriend.

He watched as Pan Yunfeng and Yue Jingchens expressions changed to one of shock. Yan Huaian smiled at the result. Yu Zi is a wonderful woman. There are so many people who like her, but someone was stupid enough not to cherish her and gave me the opportunity instead.

There was a look of I am taking this opportunity no matter what on his face. His expression alone was more than enough to stop Pan Yunfeng from saying another word.

It took a while for Pan Yunfeng to say out loud, Who knows if what youre saying is even true. Both of you might have already been seeing each other long ago and are now just putting up an act for all of us to see in an effort to protect Yu Zis image !

Song Dashen walked over and said coldly, This is President Yan of Yan Hui. What need is there for him to sneak around with a woman? If he was with Yu Zi before this, he would never have allowed his girlfriend to see someone else.

Song Dashens words gave reason for everyone watching the scene to start gossiping among themselves.

This tall, handsome, elegant man was Yan Huaian.

Yan Beicheng was still in university during this time. If one were to mention President Yan from Yan Hui, there was none other than Yan Huaian.

Those words were true. Who would care to two-time a poor, little man when she was dating Yan Huaian? Any woman would have ditched him to be with Yan Huaian in a heartbeat.

No one expected Yan Huaian would stay single just because he had his heart set on Yu Zi. No actress or model has ever had the opportunity to get close to him during banquets. He had stayed a bachelor all this while because the woman he liked had a boyfriend, waiting patiently for her to finally be single so he would have his chance.

The women present at the scene could not help but envy Yu Zi. She was sought after by such an outstanding man.

They might be envious of her but none of them were jealous. Yan Huaian was someone that was quite distant to them, after all.

From what Pan Yunfeng had just said, it sounded like Yu Zi came from quite a respectable family, so there was no need for them to be jealous of it.

At the same time, they could not help but be impressed by Yu Zi. She was an outstanding woman who fell in love with a poor man. Even though someone as impressive as Yan Huaian liked her, she was never tempted by him. This proved that she was someone of strong character and integrity.

Everyone chattered amongst each other as they discussed this. Every word could be heard by Pan Yunfeng.

Pan Yunfeng could not find the words to retaliate. She had no idea who Yan Huaian was but from the bustling discussion going on around her, she could guess that he was a very rich business owner.

There was no doubt at all that he was the boss of a major corporation. He had perceptive thinking. Just a few sentences and he was able to salvage Yu Zis reputation.

Not only did she remain innocent in the eyes of the public, but everyone envied her and some were even impressed by her!
