Chapter 529: Midnight Tryst (1)

“Young lady of the Su family? Su family? Which Su family?” Ling Ran was puzzled before he seemed to understand something. His eyes were wide open. “Su family. Are you referring to that Su family? When did you get in touch with the Su family? Young lady of the Su family? Is there a daughter in the Su family? Ye Yan, the Su family is involved in gangsterism. How dare you even associate yourself with them? That takes a lot of guts! Tell me how you hooked up with her. Sob… I’m going insane because of you!”

Ling Ran was perplexed by Ye Yan’s outlandish behavior. By the time he returned to his senses, he wrapped his hands around his head and screamed. He looked like he had been terrified as a result of overstimulation.

Meanwhile, Ye Yan was inebriated and unable to think clearly. He failed to get a sense of helplessness or dilemma from Ling Ran’s words. He looked at the flashing lights inside the bar and mumbled, “I made Xiao Qi angry. She ignores me and doesn’t want to see me. This is something I deserve. She is carrying my child, but I don’t know anything about it and have completely forgotten about her. If I put myself in her shoes, I would be angry with myself as well. But… I didn’t mean to do it! So, what should I do? What am I supposed to do to earn her forgiveness? How could she possibly forgive me?”

Originally, Ling Ran could not quite accept Ye Yan’s sudden change of heart for someone else. He felt goosebumps all over his body. However, when he heard Ye Yan’s final sentence, he was struck dumb.

“Darn! What do you mean she is pregnant with your child? Did you get the woman pregnant? My god… Tell me, how did you get the woman pregnant? And you didn’t even know it, huh? Darn! Ye Yan, you scum! I had no idea that you were a wolf in sheep’s clothing! You truly are… Ye Yan…”

Ling Ran scratched his head and panicked. He could not help but think of the desperate woman who had been let down by Ye Yan and wished to shake him violently.

The person who had been questioned by Ling Ran closed his eyes. He flopped down on top of the bar with a thud, dying of drunkenness.

Ling Ran fell speechless.

Ling Ran wanted to cry. Even the warm and wild atmosphere inside the bar failed to warm his cold heart. Ye Yan was a bad bet. Why did he choose such an untrustworthy companion? If he kept doing this, he would be old before he knew it!

Despite Ling Ran making quips to himself, he would not leave the intoxicated Ye Yan alone in such a cannibalistic environment.

After scratching his head for some time, Ling Ran glared angrily at Ye Yan. In the end, he still helped to lift him up, gritted his teeth and walked out.

In his heart, he felt compelled to teach Ye Yan a lesson when he awoke!

Half a month was neither considered too long nor too short and the days passed in just the blink of an eye, especially given the number of unfortunate events that had occurred during that period of time.

The weddings of Zhao Youlin and Han Yichen were scheduled on the same day. For the Zhao family, it was truly double happiness.

The weddings of the four people would be spectacular because of the prominent families — the Zhao family, the Mu family, and, not forgetting the Sheng Huang Group.

Duan Yarong nagged Zhao Youlin all night the night before the wedding. She looked very reluctant. She also took out two sets of gold and silver jewelry.

Zhao Youlin took a quick look at the jewelry and recognized that they were the “inheritance” saved for her by the previous Zhao Youlin’s mother. Because of this, they had gotten into a heated argument with Zhao Shuncheng the previous time.

Zhao Youlin did not inquire as to how Duan Yarong obtained these items. This was because she simply did not have the need to ask.

After all, this is how the world works. The kings were the winners. If you are capable of taking things from others, those things become yours. Otherwise, you’ll have to chalk it up to bad luck. Apparently, Zhao Shuncheng belonged to the latter.

It was already midnight when Zhao Youlin and Duan Yarong finished their conversation. Zhao Youlin was about to return to the room to see if Joy was sleeping soundly when she heard a familiar ringtone.

Zhao Youlin froze and took a turn on her way to the room. She turned and walked toward a small balcony on the second floor.

“Are you still awake at this hour?” As soon as Zhao Youlin answered the call, she asked straightforwardly.

The person on the other end of the line fell silent for some time before he replied stiffly, “I miss you.”

Zhao Youlin was stunned. The next moment, the corners of her lips curled upward. There was a hint of glee in her tone and she said teasingly, “We are going to see each other tomorrow.”

The person on the other end fell silent once again. It looked like he disagreed with Zhao Youlin. Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng had not seen each other for three days, which included this day.

No one knew where Duan Yarong had heard this from. She was told that the bride and bridegroom could not meet each other before their wedding. Otherwise, this would bring bad luck to the couple’s marriage.

As such, Duan Yarong had explicitly forbidden Mu Tingfeng from appearing in the Zhao family’s residence or Zhao Enterprise since three days ago. Su Ruixin and Mu Xiaoyang would handle everything related to their wedding. She completely cut off the possibility of Mu Tingfeng meeting Zhao Youlin.

On the contrary, Han Yichen and An Yue were always stuck together, and no one cared!

Zhao Youlin, on the other hand, was separated from Mu Tingfeng and had little contact with him, whereas Han Yichen and An Yue were always so glued together that they hardly saw the couple around.

The disparity was so stark that the rest cast a sidelong glance. One day, someone could no longer stand to watch this and bring it up. Duan Yarong refuted the person with an extremely ridiculous reason.

According to Duan Yarong, An Yue was terrified after the attack. It was only natural for Han Yichen to accompany her more frequently. Besides, the wedding date was around the corner. Someone like Xie Yuqing might show up again to bother An Yue. As her mother-in-law, she felt more at ease with Han Yichen accompanying An Yue.

When Zhao Youlin heard her words, she was stupefied. She made quips to herself. ‘Mother, why didn’t you share the same concern on my side, huh? Do you know that harassing women like Xie Yuqing might appear around Mu Tingfeng as well?

‘You must understand that your future son-in-law is as attractive as your precious son, from whom you have recently recovered. Many ladies would like to take him away from your daughter as well!’

Zhao Youlin fell speechless for some time. In the end, she concluded that the reason Duan Yarong had used various methods to keep Mu Tingfeng from meeting her was because Mu Tingfeng would take Joy back to the Mu family’s house as soon as they were married. As a result, Duan Yarong felt her world was out of balance and decided to vent her rage on her future son-in-law, who was the main culprit in stealing her daughter!

“I want to see you now.” Mu Tingfeng’s deep voice had an unusually cute tone to it.

Zhao Youlin was stunned. She did not know if she should laugh or cry as she said, “It’s already very late now. Besides, your house is a long way from mine. What a ridiculous request to have me come to your house in the middle of the night.”

The person on the other end of the line fell silent once again. Just when Zhao Youlin thought that he was enraged by her words, she heard him say, “Look down..”
