Chapter 8 Arrogant Ma Shao
Several heartfelt text messages were sent out. At this moment, in an apartment located in Haicheng, Lin Ziyi was staring at the text message sent by Ye Tian, lost in thought.
She had waited for Ye Tian for several years and had no regrets in her heart, but his words were too hurtful. She felt as if her heart had turned to ashes and had the thought of giving up on herself. She had agreed to her father's request and married into the Ma family.
But not long after, she regretted it. She couldn't forget Ye Tian, the one who saved her from danger without hesitation, holding a brick. She couldn't forget the one who would drive hundreds of kilometers to her school every weekend just to see her.
With a sigh, Lin Ziyi picked up her phone, preparing to call Ye Tian.
Just then, the door was opened from the outside and two men in black walked in.
Seeing them, Lin Ziyi was shocked and asked, "Who are you?"
The man in black said coldly, "We are Ma Shao's men. Ma Shao asked us to keep an eye on Miss Lin to prevent you from running around."
Lin Ziyi was both shocked and angry, "Who does he think he is to restrict me? Get out, or I'll call the police!"
One of the men in black sneered, "Call the police? The chief of the bureau is Ma Shao's buddy. Do you think calling the police will help? Miss Lin, you must stay in this room until Ma Shao arrives!"
Lin Ziyi quickly pressed Ye Tian's number, wanting to call him for help. But one of the men in black was quick and snatched the phone, pressing it off, and coldly said, "During this time, you cannot communicate with anyone, including your family! Oh, Ma Shao will be here soon, and he wants to have a bridal chamber with Miss Lin in advance!"
Lin Ziyi felt a wave of despair. She sat weakly on the sofa, tears streaming down her face, and cried out in her heart: Ye Tian, where are you?
At this moment, Ye Tian had no idea that Lin Ziyi had been imprisoned. He was still waiting for Lin Ziyi's call, but as the night fell, his phone remained silent.
He sighed deeply and said to himself, "It seems that Ziyi still can't forgive me."
Yan Er said, "Uncle, are you waiting for Aunt's call?"
The aunt she referred to was naturally Lin Ziyi. While Ye Tian was away these years, Lin Ziyi would come to take care of Yan Er every day. When she couldn't come, she would hire a nanny to take care of her. The expenses of the Ye family these years were all covered by Lin Ziyi. If it weren't for her, Ye Shaodong and Yan Er would have had a miserable life.
Ye Tian nodded, "Yan Er, your aunt is still angry with me. After you finish eating, I will go apologize to her."
Yan Er smiled, "Uncle, Aunt is doing well. She will definitely forgive you."
Although she was young, she understood everything.
Ye Tian quickly made some food for his older brother and Yan Er to eat, but he had no appetite himself.
At 7:30, he was ready to go find Lin Ziyi and apologize to her in person.
As he walked out of the gate, Wang Huo and his son were still kneeling at the door. He found them annoying and said coldly, "You can leave now!"
With the support of their family, Wang Dalong and Wang Huo left, staggering.
Half an hour later, Ye Tian appeared at the entrance of the apartment. He needed an access card to enter the apartment, so he could only wait outside, planning to follow someone in.
At the same time, in a room on the fifth floor of the apartment, a man in his late twenties pushed open the door.
This man had narrow eyes, pale skin, thin eyebrows that were almost gone, and a gloomy temperament.
As soon as the man entered, he waved his hand, and the two men in black nodded and turned to leave the room, locking the door from the outside.
Lin Ziyi, like a startled rabbit, jumped up and asked in a frightened voice, "Ma Junji, don't mess around. My boyfriend is a martial arts expert. If you dare to touch me, he won't let you off!"
Ma Junji narrowed his eyes and said, "Lin Ziyi, your useless boyfriend is still in prison, right? Do you think it's useful to scare me with him?"
Ma Junji was Lin Ziyi's senior in college. When Lin Ziyi was a freshman, he was a senior in his fourth year. At that time, Lin Ziyi was the campus belle with countless pursuers. After Ma Junji saw her once, he was instantly amazed and started to pursue her crazily.
However, Lin Ziyi only had Ye Tian in her heart and didn't care about the rich young masters or the sons of officials from the provincial capital. Ma Junji, who had been rejected multiple times, was very annoyed. He found out that Lin Ziyi was also from Haicheng, so he asked his elders to persuade Lin's family.
When Lin's family heard that the young master of the Ma family had taken a liking to Lin Ziyi, they were naturally overjoyed, especially Lin Ziyi's grandmother, who readily agreed to the marriage.
Seeing her family's reaction, Lin Ziyi was furious and ran away from home, moving in with Ye Tian. Ma Junji's wish was once again shattered.
Although several years had passed, Ma Junji couldn't forget about Lin Ziyi. After all, the best thing is always what you can't have.
Ma Junji's eyes gleamed with a faint light as he approached Lin Ziyi step by step. Lin Ziyi kept retreating, and suddenly grabbed a fruit knife from the table, placing the tip of the knife against her neck, trembling as she said, "If you come any closer, I'll kill myself!"
Ma Junji didn't stop, and said coldly, "Kill yourself? Fine, as long as your body is still warm, it won't stop me from sleeping with you."
Lin Ziyi felt hopeless as she watched Ma Junji get closer and thought of Ye Tian's indifference towards her. Tears streamed down her face, and she gradually exerted force with the knife in her hand.
"Bang!"
The door suddenly opened, and Ma Junji became furious, turning his head and shouting, "Who let you in?"
But when he saw who it was, he froze. The person who entered was not a subordinate, but Ye Tian. The two bodyguards outside the door stood still, motionless.
Lin Ziyi was stunned. How did Ye Tian come here?
Ye Tian glanced at the scene, his eyes turning cold. He raised his left hand slightly, and Ma Junji groaned, his legs buckling as he knelt on the ground, completely numb and unable to move.
Ignoring Ma Junji, Ye Tian came to Lin Ziyi and stared into her eyes, filled with guilt. He gently took the knife from Lin Ziyi's hand and said, "Ziyi, I'm sorry! I misunderstood you!"
With just one apology, all the grievances in Lin Ziyi's heart erupted. She pounded her fists on Ye Tian's chest a few times before throwing herself into his arms, crying.
"I'm sorry." Ye Tian held her tightly, smelling the familiar fragrance, his eyes also becoming moist.
"You have no idea how difficult these past two years have been for me. You heartless person, to speak to me like that, I hate you!" Lin Ziyi said, and suddenly bit down hard on Ye Tian's shoulder, leaving a deep bite mark.
Ye Tian didn't even frown and said, "It's my fault."
Then he asked, "Who is he?"
Lin Ziyi clung to Ye Tian's strong body and refused to let go, saying, "Ma Junji, the person my grandmother chose for me. She has been pressuring me to marry him."
Ye Tian remembered that it was because of Ma Junji that Lin Ziyi had run away from home.
Ma Junji, who could still speak, stared at Ye Tian and said, "You're Ye Tian? Kid, don't get too cocky. I will send you back to prison and make your life worse than death!"
Ye Tian narrowed his eyes. Huh? He turned to face Ma Junji and said, "Send me back to prison? So you're the one who framed me and sent me there?"
Ma Junji was shocked. He realized he had slipped up but then felt that it didn't matter if he told him, so he snorted heavily, "That's right, it was me! But what can you do to me?"
