He broke his vows for her, and a tycoon descended to earth for love.

Chapter 247 We'll Always Meet Again

Siyi listened to the man speaking in a serious tone, and shrugged indifferently. "I just came up to help this migrant worker. I don't care when your president arrives, but I will try my best to persuade him later. As for other matters, I think we can go through the normal procedures when the lawyer you arranged arrives. I just hope you won't disregard human life."

As soon as she finished speaking, the two of them arrived at the top floor.

Before the people around could say anything more, they saw a young man in his early twenties pacing back and forth along the edge of the floor, shouting and cursing, holding a brick in his hand, looking extremely agitated.

Several uniformed police officers were standing opposite him.

The young man kept yelling, "Don't come near me! Don't come near me! Call my lawyer! I don't want to hear anyone's advice, I just want a lawyer! I want a lawyer! I want to sue you heartless businessmen! Are you depriving me of my human rights? You won't even let me see a lawyer? You bunch of heartless, ruthless businessmen! You ruthless businessmen! Call my lawyer, or I'll jump off a cliff and even as a ghost I won't let you do business with me!"

The policeman shouted at the young man, "Xiao Wu, the lawyer is here! Calm down, the lawyer is here! Your lawyer is here!" As he spoke, he moved closer to Siyi and whispered to her, "Hello, lawyer. Just remember to distract him and lead him to a place in the middle. We will send someone over to stop him then."

In an instant, all eyes were fixed on Siyi.

The building had just been topped out, but there was no shelter around it and no other buildings in sight. The spring wind was already strong, and now, standing on high up, it was howling as if it were about to blow one swaying.

Siyi felt as if she were standing in mid-air.

To say that you're not afraid is definitely a lie.

Although she is quite brave, she doesn't have a severe fear of heights.

But she was, after all, a woman, and in this place, at this time, her instinctive psychological reaction was still one of panic.

She took a deep breath, her mind went blank for a moment, gripped her handbag tightly, and then slowly lifted her foot to walk towards the young man.

"Don't come any closer! Who are you?"

The man clearly didn't believe she was a lawyer. He held up a brick and yelled at Siyi, "Let me tell you, don't think you can just bring anyone here and call them a lawyer. This woman doesn't look like a lawyer at all!"

Siyi was both amused and exasperated. Helpless, she could only take out her lawyer's license again. Standing ten steps away from the young man, she held up her license, swallowed hard, and then said, "Hello, I am a lawyer, my name is Ye Siyi."

The young man seemed moved, and after a pause, he said, "Come a little closer, let me take a closer look."

Siyi stumbled forward, her steps uneven. As she drew closer, the man, seemingly confirming she was indeed a lawyer, dropped the brick he was holding with a thud and instantly knelt on the ground. "Lawyer Ye, Lawyer Ye, I beg you, you must help me win this case! I beg you! These heartless, ruthless businessmen have ruined my hand, leaving me unable to use it, yet they refuse to compensate me for my losses! Lawyer Ye, you must help me!"

Siyi looked at his thin frame, swaying as he knelt outside the building, and she herself turned pale with fright. However, she tried her best to remain calm and said, "What's your name? Please get up. Tell me what's wrong, I don't know the specifics yet."

"You... come a little closer. I'm actually a bit afraid of heights. Come a little closer, and we can talk properly. Don't worry, I will definitely help you."

The man started rambling incoherently. Siyi had heard some of what the person who brought her up had said before, so she had a basic understanding of the situation. Now, after hearing what he said, she understood the general situation.

She took two steps over, trying not to look at the red airbag below and the throbbing heads, and reached out her hand. "Xiao Wu, right? Give me your hand. Come here, come a little closer and we'll talk slowly."

"No! Attorney Ye, you must promise me you'll help me win this case!"

Siyi could only nod reluctantly. "Xiao Wu, I understand your situation. I can tell you now that your situation is very optimistic. First, you were indeed injured on duty, and second, you will receive the compensation you deserve. However, you should get a work injury certificate instead of causing trouble here. Otherwise, it will backfire. Listen to me, and I will help you."

"But I have no money, not a single penny, and I'm starving."

Siyi was moved and quickly replied, "Don't worry, I'll help you. I'll get you the certificate, and I'll pay you. Also, I'll help you with the lawsuit, and I won't charge you anything."

"But that contractor said that no matter where I sue, I can't win the case. He said I can't beat him."

He started to cry, but Siyi could tell that his anger was subsiding.

Siyi said firmly, "No, I assure you, that will never happen! If they refuse to settle out of court, I will help you appeal. Whatever amount the court awards, they will have to pay you."

Xiao Wu sobbed, and a glimmer of hope ignited in her eyes as she looked at Siyi.

Siyi knew her words had worked, so she pressed her advantage, "Xiao Wu, you're only in your twenties, right? Listen to me, life is precious. Didn't you say they were unscrupulous businessmen? Trust the law. The law will use normal means to get you the compensation you deserve. Think about your parents. If you take your own life like this, they will be heartbroken."

Her words seemed to touch the boy's heart.

The man hesitated for a moment, but eventually reached out. The instant Siyi grabbed his hand, two policemen jumped out from behind and took the man away in a flash.

A life was saved.

Siyi breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the throng of heads below, she quickly took two steps back. The man who had brought her up walked over with a beaming smile, his face full of gratitude. "Attorney Ye, thank you so much. You're really amazing. You convinced him with just a few words."

Siyi waved her hand; all she wanted to do now was get back as soon as possible.

She had been meddling in other people's business today. This place was so high up that she felt really uneasy just standing there. She hurriedly entered the elevator and only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

But then the man followed, enthusiastically handing over his business card. "Attorney Ye, I'm not from this city, I'm from City A. This is my business card. Thank you so much for today. Our CEO is here, and I'll definitely tell him about this. Could you please give me your business card?"

Siyi didn't really want to take his business card. All she could hear was the man talking non-stop, but the words "City A" pierced her eardrums like a needle.

She felt a jolt run through her body and instinctively turned her head, only to see the business card in the man's hand—

As if struck by lightning, her entire body froze completely in the next second.

It reads: Liu Qi, Secretary to the President of Jiang's Group.

The Earth is round.

Therefore, people on Earth, no matter how far they go, will always meet again in the end.

But Siyi had been hiding for five years; she definitely didn't want to meet like this.

No, she never wanted to see that man again in her entire life!

Jiang's Group, President...

She clenched her fingers tightly; only the pain allowed her to maintain a semblance of composure. "Are you... one of the Jiang family?"

"Yes."

"Your boss... is the CEO?" Siyi's voice was already trembling slightly.

"Yes," Liu Qi said with a hint of pride, "I am the president's assistant."

"Well, actually I just happened to be passing by and helped you out, so you don't need to remember it. Also, you don't need to tell your CEO about what happened today. Just consider me me being nosy."

She spoke quickly, and thankfully the elevator reached the ground floor, and the uneasy feeling of floating high in the air disappeared.

But what filled her heart was even more fear and panic.

What on earth was wrong with her just now?

Why meddle in other people's business when you're doing something perfectly fine?

If that young man really jumps off the building, it has nothing to do with her.

Anyway, this society is just so cold and heartless, what's wrong with her?

She was secretly annoyed, but kept her composure to salvage the situation. "Also, you actually misheard me. My surname isn't Ye, it's Nie. The two characters sound similar. Maybe the wind was too strong just now. Anyway, I have other things to do, so I'll be going now."

She finished speaking hastily, turned around, and got out of the elevator.

The crowd had dispersed, and fortunately, the road in the construction area wasn't difficult to walk on.

Siyi walked very fast, as if some demons and monsters were chasing after her.

In fact, everything related to that man was more terrifying to her than any demon or monster.

Before she could even leave the construction site, someone else caught up with her. This time, it was a uniformed policeman who kept calling out to her from a distance, "Attorney Ye, Attorney Ye, wait a minute! You, the female lawyer in front, wait a moment—"

Siyi was truly on the verge of tears. If time could turn back, even if she were paid millions, she would never have impulsively run up there. But there are no "what ifs" in this world.

The police stopped her at the entrance of the construction site, panting as they looked at her. "I said, you lawyer... sigh, I've been calling you for ages, why are you ignoring me? Attorney Ye, you can't leave yet. I think you're going to take on this case."
