“As soon as the words fell, the woman reacted as if she had heard something extremely unacceptable. She instantly became furious, her face contorted, and she exclaimed, ‘Rebel! How dare you speak to me like that!’
At this moment, the chubby council member standing nearby quickly stepped in, saying, ‘Ahem, alright, alright, the two of you, can’t you have a civilized conversation?’
At this moment, Ye Wanwan’s eyes nearly popped out of her head.
Mother…son…?
Yin Yuerong is actually Si Yehan’s mother???
“Ahem ahem ahem…” Ye Wanwan coughed repeatedly, “Yin Yuerong is your mom?”
Si Yehan remained silent for a moment before finally speaking, “I have no relationship with her.”
Ye Wanwan, with a mournful face, realized that she had indeed just been gossiping about his mother for quite a while.
The atmosphere on the scene became extremely awkward.
Yin Yuerong seemed unwilling to lose her composure in front of outsiders and forcibly suppressed her anger, saying, ‘Let’s go!’
Turning around halfway, the woman suddenly turned back, and the stern expression on her face disappeared entirely. She looked at Si Yehan with a hint of tenderness and said, ‘Ah Jiu, Mom’s good son, I’ve given you a chance, don’t push Mom, okay?’
At this moment, the woman’s expression could be described as extremely gentle, but it appeared on that ageless and stunning face, sending chills down one’s spine.
Hearing the woman’s words, Si Yehan’s breath seemed to instantly calm down, and Ye Wanwan felt the large palm in her hand tighten, making her bones ache.
Ye Wanwan lowered her gaze and held onto the man’s broad hand, and Si Yehan’s body gradually relaxed.
This crisis that could have overturned the Independent State was finally resolved.
The legitimate faction, as if fearing Si Yehan’s anger, was the first to leave after seeing that the arbitration council was taking people away. The other factions also silently withdrew, and finally, the major forces and the four major families left one after another…
On the vast battlefield, Si Yehan stood alone in the center, his face filled with emptiness and numbness.
The closest person had become the greatest enemy; there was nothing more ridiculous and ironic than this.
Ye Wanwan’s side was in chaos, and she didn’t know what to say to comfort him, so she could only think about letting Tangtang go and comfort him later.
The head of the Nie family and Mrs. Nie seemed to be worried about their son. Mrs. Nie grabbed Nie Wuming’s hand and said, ‘Son, let’s go… home, okay?’
Nie Wuming looked at his parents, his sister, and his grandfather by his side, and the haze in his eyes gradually dissipated.
Si Yehan glanced at the vice president, Yu Shao, behind him and nodded in understanding. Yu Shao took a step forward and said to Nie Wuming, ‘Young Master Nie, I’ll take you to see Miss Ling Miao.’
Nie Wuming’s eyes lit up and he quickly asked, ‘How is she? Take me there!’
Si Yehan interjected, ‘Don’t worry, Si Xia originally planned to use her to coerce you, so she won’t harm her.’
He continued, ‘As for the rules of the Arbitration Council, many people are dissatisfied with them. I will try to find a way. However, whether the proposal to amend the rules can be passed, I need to find someone, so I can’t give you a definite answer for now.’
Nie Wuming looked at Si Yehan with complex emotions in his eyes, sighed, patted Si Yehan’s shoulder, and said, ‘We’re all family; I won’t say thank you to you.’
Si Yehan smiled wryly, and that sentence was the best expression of gratitude.
The head of the Nie family and Mrs. Nie seemed to want to say something but ultimately remained silent.”
