Chapter 116 - No regrets until death
Chapter 116: 26. No regrets until death
He Yi walked in with Baby and saw Yi Liangze talking to Wan Wan. The father and daughter looked very intimate. It was not obvious that they were estranged from each other. She could not help but be very happy. She walked in and asked, “What are you two talking about so happily?”
Baby handed the newly bought grilled chicken wings to Yi Liangze and Wan Wan and said, “Mom and I have eaten them. This is for you!”
“Thank you, Brother Baby!” Wan Wan thanked him, took the chicken wings, and ate them with relish.
He Yi sat down and caressed Wan Wan’s little head lovingly. She asked gently, “What did you say to Daddy just now? You were so happy!”
Wan Wan blinked her big eyes and whispered something into He Yi’s ear.
He Yi’s eyes widened in surprise. “Really! That’s great! Wan Wan is great!”
At this moment, she finally understood why Yi Liangze was so happy. He realized that their daughter was not only a traitor, she was clear about major matters. Including the last time she asked Wan Wan to help her get video evidence in Xingyue bay, the child had done a very good job.
Next, Yi Liangze put the video memory card that Wan Wan had gotten into the card reader and played it. He saw the conversation between Yang Yang and Wan Wan.
Yang Yang looked very angry. He kept insisting that a waiter had added something to his drink, but when he woke up later and mentioned it to his mother, she repeatedly told him not to go out and talk about it.
“Hmph! when I see that bad woman again, I’ll blind her with a slingshot!” Yang Yang used a slingshot to hit the eyes of anyone who offended him.
Wan Wan blinked her big eyes and said, “Can you still recognize what she looks like?”
“Of course, I can!” Yang Yang said angrily. “That night, she followed me all the way. I hate her!”
Seeing this, He Yi glanced at Yi Liangze. Yi Liangze immediately understood. “I’ll immediately get someone to check the surveillance footage that night. We’ll find the attendant who followed Yang Yang!”
......
Although there was a blind spot when the accident happened that night and He Yi did not see who poisoned Yang Yang’s drink, to preserve the evidence, the surveillance footage from that night was still kept. It was sealed in Yi Liangze’s private cloud drive.
*
That night, just as the two of them were about to fall asleep, Yi Liangze’s phone rang. It was Qin Weixian calling. He Yi could tell at a glance that there was progress in the investigation of the surveillance cameras.
As expected, Qin Weixian reported that he had already found out the true identity of the waiter who had been following Yang Yang all night on the surveillance cameras. However, she had already resigned!
“Find a way to find her!” Yi liangze immediately instructed, “Don’t hand her over to the police first. I want to interrogate her personally!”
After hanging up the phone, Yi Liangze pulled He Yi over and asked with a smile, “Why do you want to make a move on Yang Yang?”
He Yi smiled faintly. “Children have simpler minds and are easier to deal with than those cunning adults! You have to pick the soft persons!”
“Cunning!” Yi Liangze pinched her pretty nose and said with some emotion, “I really can tell that Wan Wan is still your divine help!”
“Wan Wan is a smart child. Although she has a little temper, she is not muddle-headed in matters!” He Yi took the opportunity to praise Wan Wan’s virtues in front of Yi Liangze. “She knows that you are her real father. It’s just that she was hungry for Chu Tianyi’s nurturing grace, so she chose to distance herself from you because she couldn’t make up her mind. Forgive her. She is just a five-or six-year-old child. When she is older, she will get to know you better slowly, and it will be fine!”
Yi Liangze held He Yi in his arms and gently stroked her shoulder, and sighed. “I’ve never blamed her. How can’t I forgive her? When I proposed to let her live with Chu Tianyi, it wasn’t because I resented her favoritism, but because I couldn’t bear to see her live such a painful and contradictory life. Although she likes Chu Tianyi, I let her choose what she likes. Maybe I’m wrong to think like this. You’re right, the more we don’t live together, the more distant our lives become!”
He Yi was like a gentle kitten lying on his chest, her eyes hazy. “It’s not easy for our family to be reunited, how can we be separated so easily?”
When the Yi family decided to postpone the wedding due to the poisoning case, Yi Liangze chose to complete the wedding on time. At first, she did not understand. Later, she understood that he insisted because he had love in his heart. Even if all sorts of obstacles and disappointments were encountered, he wouldn’t change his original intention.
When she understood his sincerity and knew how to cherish the hard-won family reunion, he proposed to send Wan Wan back to live by Chu Tianyi’s side. He Yi was sad and disappointed because of this, but she repeatedly told herself that she could not have a grudge against Yi Liangze because of this.
Sure enough, he also had his reasons! Although this reason was completely untenable in her eyes.
After communication, the two of them finally found a way to solve the problem, and Yi Liangze was also working hard to repair the estrangement caused by the separation from Wan Wan since they were young.
When Wan Wan helped He Yi find out about the poisoning case, Yi Liangze recovered his love for Wan Wan. It was a deep-rooted love and appreciation, which made He Yi very pleased.
The father of the child loved their child. This was a joyous occasion for Wan Wan and He Yi.
*
Her clothes were gently removed, and kisses fell like raindrops.
Every night before he went to bed, he would hug her and possess her in the gentlest way possible. He Yi was always a little passive when it came to sex, but he was extremely patient and gentle, so it was not difficult for her to accept him.
Even if sometimes she was too tired, or sometimes she was in a bad mood and was not in a good mood, he would always be able to explain to her, let her recover her good mood, and then have sex with her.
Sometimes, it would be better to relax. The harmonious love between husband and wife would help her sleep. After every time they had sex, He Yi would fall asleep in his arms at the fastest speed.
He Yi was used to having a good time every night. She was used to being in each other’s arms every night. She was used to his love and gentleness.
He Yi completely threw away all her previous vigilance and wariness. She trusted him with her children. She believed that he would not let her down! She also believed that he would one day completely replace Chu Tianyi in Wan Wan’s heart.
The missing fatherly love and motherly love would eventually be compensated with double efforts. She would be with him to comfort the emotional world of the two children. From then on, the family would stick together through thick and thin, never leaving each other.
*
Qin Weixian quickly found the waitress. Although the woman had resigned, with Qin Weixian’s connections and skills, it didn’t take much effort to drag her out.
Yi Liangze interrogated her personally, but the waiter insisted that Yang Yang had spoken rudely to her that night. She held a grudge and took the opportunity to put poison in the child’s drinking cup. No one instructed her to do so.
She repeated the question many times, and it was the same result. In the end, Yi Liangze handed her over to the police to deal with.
They finally found the true culprit of the poisoning. He Yi was cleared of the suspicion of poisoning and was accepted by the Yi family.
To comfort her, the elders of the Yi family discussed and decided to hold a banquet for her on the first day of the family gathering after marriage.
After learning that she had wronged He Yi, Su Yuzhi also apologized. Seeing that she apologized, He Yi naturally couldn’t pursue the matter any further. She generously said, “Since we found the real culprit, it’s good that the real bad guys didn’t get away with it!”
In this way, everyone was happy. All the bad feelings were gone. At the same time, the elders of the Yi family felt a little guilty because He Yi had been wronged. Therefore, they were especially warm and loving to her.
Yi Jingye was very satisfied when he learned that He Yi had already placed Rong Yi under the banner of Kai Kun and left many things to Yi Liangze to handle. “He Yi is more and more aware of the importance of family and children. She no longer devotes all her energy and time to work. This shows that she is a good wife and mother!”
Since Yi Jingye had already acknowledged He Yi as his daughter-in-law, the others naturally had no objections.
Because the elders of the Yi family loved He Yi, Su Yuzhi also beamed at her and the two of them exchanged a few polite words.
After Su Yuzhi drank a few glasses of wine and stood by the window to get some air, He Yi walked over with her wine glass.
“Second aunt, do you want to drink a cup of tea to sober up?” He Yi asked while gently shaking the wine glass in her hand.
“No need, I didn’t drink too much.” Su Yuzhi turned around to look at He Yi. Although she felt very uncomfortable, she couldn’t help but smile when she saw the elders of the Yi family treating He Yi with affection, she explained again, “You’re thoughtful. You know how to remember your second aunt. I wronged you the last time when they poisoned him. Fortunately, you’re a mother, so you understand that I was in a rush!”
He Yi smiled and said, “Second aunt has already apologized to me. Moreover, the situation was urgent at that time. As a mother, I naturally understand second aunt!” Then, seeing that Su Yuzhi seemed to be relieved, her clear eyes flashed, and she added, “But I heard from Yang Yang that the waiter told him to drink the entire cup of drink, but he felt that the taste was strange, so he only drank a few mouthfuls! Fortunately, he didn’t drink all of it at that time. Otherwise, he probably wouldn’t have gotten out of danger so easily!”
Su Yuzhi’s expression changed, and her lips moved. She wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn’t say a word.
“I just think it’s strange. It’s just a naughty kid who accidentally provoked that waitress. Why did she have the intention to kill him?” He Yi was very puzzled, “It seems that there are too many people who are crazy. One careless mistake could take the child’s life!”
“Damn it!” Su Yuzhi couldn’t bear it anymore and was so angry that her whole body was trembling. She noticed that He Yi was sizing her up, so she said angrily, “That waiter has a wicked heart!”
He Yi sighed and said, “Yeah! She didn’t even let a child go. She had a wicked heart! If Yang Yang had drunk the entire cup of drink at that time... he would have been half-crippled even if he didn’t die. The person who poisoned her would probably not just go to jail but would be sentenced to death. Do you think that someone instructed that waiter to poison the child? Thinking that the more serious the child was poisoned, the more serious the crime of the suspect would be. He didn’t care about Yang Yang’s life or death at all!”
Su Yuzhi almost jumped up in shock. Her face was pale, and her eyes were a little frantic. “What nonsense are you talking about? Isn’t it clear that the waiter had evil thoughts and no one instructed her?”
He Yi smiled sweetly and flicked her fingers casually. “Second aunt should know clearly whether someone instructed her or not! Second aunt should also know who instructed her! Even if she didn’t say it out loud, second aunt should know very well. Don’t come into contact with those human-faced beasts anymore! To achieve your goal, you have to do whatever it takes. Your son’s life is not only yours but also the entire Yi family’s! He is a descendant of the Yi family. He can not be used as a chess piece for no reason and sacrificed for no reason!”
With that, He Yi drank the wine in her cup in one gulp.
“I won’t let Yang Yang be used by others!” Su Yuzhi clenched her fists and raised her chin at the same time. “I will not let go of the person who harmed him!”
“At that time, if aunt didn’t leave in a bad mood...” He Yi paused at this point and saw the nervousness in Su Yuzhi’s eyes. She continued indifferently, “When the poisoning incident happened, she must have been the one who scolded me the most!”
“What do you mean?” Su Yuzhi couldn’t hold it in anymore and frowned. “Are you suspecting your aunt?”
“I’m just curious, who was the one who wanted to use Yang Yang’s incident to frame me? Among all the people present at that time, she was the one who was at odds with me the most!” He Yi didn’t plan to play any tricks with Su Yuzhi, she needed to use this opportunity to stab a knife between Su Yuzhi and Chu Piaoyun. Regardless of whether it was Chu Piaoyun who did it or not, Chu Piaoyun was the most suspicious. After all, she had multiple priors!
Seeing Su Yuzhi’s pale face, she did not say anything else, He Yi stared into her eyes and continued, “She could disregard Yang Yang’s life or death just to get rid of me. She might not care about your life and death next time! This woman is too scary. You have to be careful!”
After saying that, He Yi turned around and left.
If this matter was done by Chu Piaoyun, Su Yuzhi would undoubtedly hate Chu Piaoyun to death. From now on, these two allies would probably become enemies!

Fang family, private villa.
Chu Piaoyun threw the phone angrily and cursed, “She’s simply a crazy woman!”
“Mom, What’s wrong!” Fang Yuan walked over and asked. “Who made you angry again?”
“Who else could it be other than Su Yuzhi?” Chu Piaoyun’s chest heaved up and down violently. It seemed that she was extremely angry. “She must have been instigated by He Yi. She scolded me for harming her precious son!”
“Oh my God, is she blind? She believed He Yi’s instigation!” Fang Yuan cried out exaggeratedly. “Mom, you don’t have to pay attention to her! A woman who doesn’t know what’s right and wrong doesn’t know what’s good for her at all!”
Of course, Chu Piaoyun couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to her, but what worried her was, “If even Su Yuzhi thinks that I bribed that waitress, then doesn’t the entire Yi family thinks so too?”
If the Yi family believed He Yi’s speculation, Chu Piaoyun’s situation was undoubtedly very bad.
For many years, she had relied on her status as a relative of the Yi family and had a close relationship with Su Yuzhi, so the Wanfang group received a lot of care from Kai Kun in terms of business. However, things were different now. The Yi family believed that she had hired someone to poison him to deal with He Yi. In that case, the Yi family would very likely take revenge on her in terms of their business. Moreover, Su Yuzhi would no longer put in a good word for her!
“I didn’t expect He Yi to be so calculative!” The thing that Chu Piaoyun regretted the most was that she had not gotten rid of He Yi earlier. That was why she had become the biggest threat today. “If I had known earlier...”
“Mom, it’s not too late to make a move now!” Fang Yuan suggested. As she spoke, she leaned over and whispered into Chu Piaoyun’s ear.
“Will this work?” Chu Piaoyun was a little hesitant.
“We can’t just sit around and wait for death!” Fang Yuan said with certainty. “As long as we think of a way to get rid of He Yi, our relationship with the Yi family can still be restored to how it was before! As for Su Yuzhi, she’s on the same side as us. I don’t think she would dare to reveal too much!”
“Mm.” Chu Piaoyun nodded and hardened her heart. “Let’s do it! For those who achieve great things, how can we not sacrifice a few innocent people!”
After confirming this matter, Chu Piaoyun asked again, “Where’s your big brother?”
Fang Yuan saw that Chu Piaoyun had been frequently asking about her big brother Fang Yu recently. This was completely different from before. She could not help but feel a little strange. “Mom, you seem to be very concerned about eldest brother recently!”
Chu Piaoyun’s expression immediately turned very ugly. “When did I not care about him? He is my biological son! Moreover... Your Cousin Tianyi is not up to par. Who else can I count on?” At the end of her sentence, she could not help but sigh heavily.
She had placed all her hopes on Chu Tianyi. Rong Yi’s rapid development in five to six years was due to Chu Piaoyun’s hard work and contributions. It was a pity that Chu Tianyi, whom she had placed high hopes on, was completely crippled. Apart from being disappointed, she could only place her disappointment back on her son.
“Mom, I said... Don’t be angry!” Fang Yuan blinked and said softly, “I heard that big brother has been fooling around with Wei Jiameng again recently!”
“What?” Chu Piaoyun’s face turned pale with fright as expected. She asked, “When did this happen? Why didn’t you tell me earlier? Where’s Wen Siling? Did she cause trouble?”
There were too many questions, and Fang Yuan could only answer them one by one. “It’s just something that happened recently!” She did not know what her big brother was thinking, but he just could not leave Wei Jiameng. Sister Siling was so angry that she was about to go crazy. She heard that she had taken people to Fu Xing to cause a ruckus a few times, but they were all chased out by He Yi’s people. The female bodyguard by He Yi’s side was extremely skilled, and she even beat sister Siling up! “Because both of them were women, and Sis Siling was the one who brought people to beat them up, the police only asked a few questions and did not file a case...”
Chu Piaoyun almost fainted from anger. “Why didn’t you tell me anything?”
Fang Yuan pouted aggrievedly when she saw that Chu Piaoyun was angry. “I was afraid that you would be upset. Besides, these are all small matters. Big brother is just fooling around with Wei Jiameng. He will return to Sis Siling’s side!”
“Bastard!” Chu Piaoyun pointed at Fang Yuan’s nose and screamed, “Hurry up and bring someone to catch that useless thing for me!”
*
Faced with Wen Siling coming to cause a ruckus again, Ji Xueshan was already very familiar with the situation. First, she locked the iron door of the factory, and then she got the security guards to guard the door. The other party threw sand into the factory and other things before it was thrown out again.
Wen Siling had been cursing and swearing outside, saying that Wei Jiameng had seduced her boyfriend, who was fighting with her and asked her to return him as soon as possible.
He Yi knew that this was not the way to go on, so she called Wei Jiameng out and told her to see how to deal with it.
Unexpectedly, Wei Jiameng, who had always been timid, was brave enough to announce loudly for the first time, “I love Fang Yu, and he loves me too! The two of us swore to be together to death, and no one can separate us! Don’t come to the factory to make trouble again, I don’t want to implicate He Yi! From now on, I officially resign!”
He Yi was about to faint from anger. She just wanted to force her to express her stance and put an end to Fang Yu, the troublemaker who had caused trouble. She did not expect Wei Jiameng to choose to end things with Fu Xing Leather Factory and never come to work again.
“You don’t work anymore?” He Yi laughed in anger. “You want Fang Yu, that playboy, to take care of you?”
Wei Jiameng’s face was full of determination “I know you look down on me, but I just can’t let him go! That’s right, I don’t feel at ease doing anything now. He’s the only one in my mind! Wen Siling, that shrew, always comes looking for trouble. Why don’t I leave here and be with Fang Yu?”
“Do you think he can protect you?” He Yi was disappointed. “If you fall into Wen Siling’s hands, she will beat you to death!”
“I’m not afraid!” Wei Jiameng said firmly, “I believe Fang Yu can protect me!”
Then, Wei Jiameng took out her phone and dialed Fang Yu’s number in front of He Yi. “... Fang Yu, Wen Siling is here to make trouble again! I don’t want to trouble He Yi anymore. Come and pick me up!”
Wei Jiameng nodded in satisfaction, not knowing what Fang Yu said. “Yes, yes, I know! See you tomorrow!”
After hanging up the phone, Wei Jiameng’s face was full of excitement. She said to He Yi,”He said that he doesn’t need to pay attention to Wen Siling. He will send someone to pick me up after she is done causing trouble and leaves!”
He Yi was extremely angry. She nodded and praised, “Very good, he doesn’t even dare to show himself!”
“Don’t talk about him like that!” Wei Jiameng immediately defended Fang Yu with heartache. “He just doesn’t want to blow things up. After all, Wen Siling is the girlfriend his family arranged for him.”
“Then what do you plan to do?” He Yi was extremely distressed. She could almost foresee that Wei Jiameng’s ending would not be good. “Can he abandon his family to be with you? If he abandons his family, he will be penniless and no longer be the glittering young Master Fang! He even has a problem raising himself, how can he still care about you?”
“No matter what his identity is, I will love him as before!” Wei Jiameng raised her chin, unwavering. “He Yi, just let me love him once! No matter what the result is, I will not regret it!”
The commotion outside the iron door gradually subsided. Wen Siling probably could not open the door and was tired from the commotion, so she left.
Ji Xueshan walked over, she heard He Yi slowly say to Wei Jiameng, “... Fang Yu is not scary. Who’s scary is Empress Chu behind him. She can turn you into dust in an instant. You might not even know how you died! But since you insist on being with him, you have to bear the consequences yourself. It could be a sweet fruit, or it could be bitter fruit. From what I see, it’s most likely a bitter fruit! No matter what, as long as you don’t regret it, go ahead!”
“Yes!” Wei Jiameng nodded repeatedly and said affirmatively, “Even if I die, I won’t regret it!”
*
After Wen Siling left, Fang Yu indeed sent a car to the factory to pick up Wei Jiameng.
Wei Jiameng happily packed her things. At the same time, she bragged to He Yi, “See, he’s not afraid of that shrew Wen Siling!”
He Yi wanted to say something, but in the end, she swallowed it back. She sighed and stopped talking.
Ji Xueshan saw He Yi’s hesitation and said to Wei Jiameng, “Actually, Wen Siling isn’t scary. The real scary is Empress Chu!”
Wei Jiameng paused for a moment, then she shook her head firmly. “I’ve met Empress Chu. Although she doesn’t like me, she didn’t hit me! When those four women hit me, she opened her mouth to stop them! This shows that although she’s strict, at least she’s not unwilling. She’s a well-mannered mistress!”
