Chapter 159: Chapter 159: The Promises a Man Makes to You_1

"Here you go, Chen, isn’t it this? Before the old lady passed away, she was particularly concerned about this matter. I’ve always kept this marriage certificate. Never expected that today someone would actually come with the marriage certificate in hand."

The beautiful woman’s face was adorned with a brilliant smile, her eyes full of kindness as she looked towards Yin Tian.

Yin Tian raised an eyebrow.

How could this couple be so divided on the matter?

Not to mention the attitude Chen Yu’s brother had towards Chen Yu just now.

This whole family was more interesting than he had imagined.

The man apparently did not expect his wife to still have another marriage certificate.

Looking at the shattered paper beneath his feet, he slowly raised his head to look at Yin Tian, "Even if you really do have a marriage agreement, I cannot possibly agree to let you marry."

Yin Tian looked at the man in front of him very seriously, as if trying to guess his thoughts.

"Why not?"

"No reason, just because I’m Chen Yu’s dad!"

The man stated this decisively, with no intention of allowing his daughter to marry Yin Tian.

"Humph!"

Having said that, the man even let out a cold snort and directly strode towards the door, "Please leave as soon as possible. Today is the last time you see my daughter."

"Chen, Chen."

The beautiful woman chased after the man and ran out.

Meanwhile, the young man looked provocatively at Chen Yu, "Sister, I should wish you in advance to find a good husband."

As he spoke, the young man also stepped out of the villa.

Soon, only Yin Tian and Chen Yu were left inside the villa.

At that moment, Chen Yu couldn’t be bothered about hearing that Yin Tian had a total of ten fiancées anymore. Instead, she turned to look at Yin Tian, her expression awkward, "I’m sorry... I had no idea that my dad would react so strongly..."

Yin Tian gave Chen Yu a grin, "It’s okay. Whether you marry me or not, unless I die, I will be sure to protect you."

Chen Yu was taken aback and looked at Yin Tian very seriously.

She could tell that Yin Tian was very sincere, with not a trace of deceit in him.

"Why... why are you treating me this way?"

Chen Yu spoke softly, her pretty face blushing.

Although many had confessed their love to her before, she was well aware that those people either coveted her family background or lusted after her body.

Only Yin Tian.

His gaze was clear, free of any impure thoughts towards her.

He simply wanted to do good by her!

"You still..."

Yin Tian began to speak, wanting to bring up that incident from the past.

But just as he began, he stopped again, "Never mind, just consider it my guilt towards you."

Guilt?

Chen Yu was startled.

Had she met Yin Tian before?

Or had Yin Tian done something to wrong her?

But why didn’t she feel anything about it?

She stood there, thinking for a long time, but couldn’t figure out what Yin Tian meant by his words.

"Alright, stop thinking about it. You won’t know," Yin Tian said to Chen Yu with a gentle smile, then raised an eyebrow, "I’m a guest in your home, are you just going to leave me standing here?"

Only then did Chen Yu snap out of it, giving Yin Tian an embarrassed smile before leading him to the living room.

"Tell me about your family," Yin Tian asked softly as he took the water cup from Chen Yu’s hand, "Why does your brother have so much hostility towards you?"

Chen Yu hesitated for a moment before finally speaking softly, "Actually, he’s not my biological brother."

Yin Tian was taken aback.

Chen Yu smiled lightly, as if she had anticipated Yin Tian’s reaction, "My dad and my aunt got together later. My mom died of complications during childbirth when I was born, and after a few years, my dad married this aunt, who gave birth to a son for my dad."

"Have you noticed my aunt is very supportive of our... marriage agreement? It’s because if I get married and leave, it will give my aunt’s child a reason to claim more of the inheritance."

"That’s why my aunt kept the marriage certificate all this time. And my brother has been indoctrinated by my aunt since he was young about the issue of the inheritance, so he’s very hostile towards me, unwilling to share the family assets with me..."

Chen Yu’s voice got softer and softer, then finally faded away.

Yin Tian also had not anticipated that Chen Yu would be from such a family.

"Do you have any demands regarding the family property?" Yin Tian asked softly.

Should Chen Yu nod, he would definitely help her fight for more of the family wealth.

Even all of it!

"No need..."

Chen Yu shook her head, "The money I’ve earned myself is enough..."

"Your own money?"

Yin Tian looked at Chen Yu in surprise.

Chen Yu looked to be only about twenty years old, so how much could she have possibly earned?

Chen Yu nodded but didn’t explain further.

"Alright then..."

Yin Tian said, taking Chen Yu’s phone from her hand and entering a series of numbers.

"This is my phone number."

Yin Tian handed the phone back to Chen Yu, "Whenever you have any issues, just call me, no matter where you are, I will come to you."

"This is a promise from a man to you."
