Ye Yin leaned against the cold corridor wall, the pain in her jaw still spreading.

But she couldn't care less about any of that.

Don't panic, we must find a way to stop it.

She took a few deep breaths, forcing herself to calm down.

Si Jinghuai's goal was himself, but he chose the path of destroying the Ye family.

That means that if the father gives up the 1 million contract, he might be able to avoid the trap.

But will Father believe it? Even if he doesn't, we have to try.

Ye Yin straightened her slightly disheveled suit jacket, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and forced herself to walk into the private room.

As soon as I entered, I saw Ye Tianhua chatting with Mr. Brown with a big smile on his face. The dishes on the table were still steaming, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

"Yinyin, come here quickly!" Ye Tianhua saw her.

He beckoned her over, "Mr. Brown and I have finished our discussion, and the contract details have been finalized. We can sign the official documents in a couple of days!"

He couldn't hide his excitement; he was clearly still basking in the joy of securing the big order and completely oblivious to his daughter's unusual behavior.

Mr. Brown smiled and nodded, "Ms. Ye, your father is very professional, this collaboration will definitely go smoothly."

Ye Yin forced a smile but didn't reply.

"It's getting late, let's see Mr. Si and Mr. Brown out." Ye Tianhua stood up and warmly greeted the two.

Ye Yin followed behind, her gaze unconsciously falling on Si Jinghuai.

He still had that indifferent look on his face.

As they approached the restaurant entrance, Si Jinghuai's black limousine was already waiting there, and Ya Rui respectfully opened the car door.

Mr. Brown shook hands with Ye Tianhua first: "Chairman Ye, I look forward to seeing you again."

"Definitely!" Ye Tianhua grinned from ear to ear.

Si Jinghuai didn't say much. He glanced at Ye Yin in the car.

— His eyes seemed to be waiting for a good show.

The car slowly drove away and disappeared into the night.

Ye Tianhua was still sighing, "President Si is truly young and promising. With us cooperating with him, the future of the Ye Group will be much brighter..."

"Dad!" Ye Yin couldn't hold back any longer and interrupted him.

She hurriedly said, "Let's cancel this contract! Can we get our deposit back? This is their trick!"

Ye Tianhua's smile froze instantly.

He paused, then smiled helplessly: "Yinyin, what nonsense are you spouting? What do you know about business cooperation, you little brat?"

He thought his daughter was still throwing a tantrum.

He reached out and patted her shoulder: "You used to be clinging to him every day, have you forgotten? So many company bosses in Anya City want to curry favor with him but don't even have the chance. Why would someone as important as him deliberately target a small company like ours?"

"No, Dad!" Ye Yin's eyes reddened with anxiety.

She has no evidence, and if she speaks out, she will only be seen as making a fuss.

"Dad, listen to me, Si Jinghuai, he..."

"Alright, alright."

Ye Tianhua interrupted her again, his tone tinged with impatience.

He still suppressed his temper and explained, "Things in the business world aren't as simple as you think. There are interests involved. It's normal that you don't understand since you're new to the company. Just learn from Dad and don't overthink these things."

He patted Ye Yin's head.

Like soothing a tantrum-throwing child: "Sweetie, don't overthink it, let's go home."

Ye Yin watched her father's retreating figure, opened her mouth, but could no longer utter a word.

She knew her father didn't believe her.

In his father's eyes, Si Jinghuai was a powerful figure worth currying favor with, a benefactor who could help the Ye family take off.

And my own reminder was just from an inexperienced newbie.

The night wind brushed against my face, carrying a biting chill.

Ye Yin stood still.

For the first time, I felt so small and powerless in this world, facing Si Jinghuai.
