“Ye Yan?” Weren’t they talking about the Su family? Why did he suddenly bring up Ye Yan?
Hang on, Ye Yan was the father of the baby in Su He’s stomach. Now that she thought of it, Ye Yan had no room to escape. If the elders of the Su family really got mad, of course they would not hurt their precious daughter and granddaughter, but they might not treat an outsider like Ye Yan the same.
As she thought of that, Zhao Youlin subconsciously glanced at Mu Tingfeng. This guy here had once said he did not believe Ye Yan and Su He would work out.
However, when they talked about Su He, he thought of Ye Yan immediately.
He claimed that he did not believe their relationship would work out, but he had already bound them together in his heart. Could this guy be any more dishonest?
“Why don’t you want to help Ye Yan? Is it because of what happened back then?” Zhao Youlin thought about it and could only think of one reason.
But Mu Tingfeng was only stunned for a second. Then, he quickly shook his head to deny Zhao Youlin’s speculation.
“No? What other reason do you have?” Zhao Youlin thought about it for a long time. Then, as if she had thought of something, her eyes widened instantly and she looked at the man beside her in disbelief. “I say, don’t tell me it’s because of Ling Ran?”
Ling Ran and Ye Yan were best friends. Ling Ran and Li’s sudden appearance just now had disturbed Mu Tingfeng’s long anticipated date. It wasn’t on purpose, but Mu Tingfeng obviously thought otherwise.
So Mu Tingfeng was now holding a grudge against Ye Yan just because of what Ling Ran did?
Mu Tingfeng pursed his lips and did not answer her question.
Zhao Youlin suddenly did not know if she could cry or laugh. She knew Mu Tingfeng could be very petty when it came to certain things, but she did not expect that he would be petty to such an extent.
“Pffff…” Zhao Youlin could not hold back anymore as she started laughing.
But she got it under control very quickly. She cleared her throat and said, “We’d better go. When Old Master Su and Xiao He’s parents get mad, the first to get hurt may still be Xiao He. Xiao He is pregnant now. Both her mind and her body are in a sensitive and fragile period. We can’t afford for anything bad to happen. Besides, it’s our future nephew or niece in her stomach. I don’t want us to make any wrong decisions and regret it in the future.”
Zhao Youlin’s persuasion made Mu Tingfeng’s mind waver. After a moment of silence, he finally loosened up. “For the sake of Xiao Qi and you.”
“I know, I know.” Zhao Youlin smiled in a resigned manner and unexpectedly found that it was that hard to keep the man who was sitting next to her happy.
Before this, it was hard to imagine that someone like him could be so… childish, but after getting to know him better, she had found many things about him that were not known by many people, such as his extreme stubbornness on certain things, such as his pettiness when he refused to give in on certain things, such as his headstrong when he obviously cared about something, yet he pretended he didn’t.
That’s why people say some people in the world could only be admired from afar, because when you got closer to them, they might not be as good as you thought they would be.
Distance produced beauty. When the distance was gone, those sparks were still there, though they would eventually be covered up by the shortcomings.
If one could not tolerate each other’s weaknesses as well as each other’s strengths, it would cause a relationship between a married couple to fall apart very easily.
Once one’s gleaming facade was stripped away, leaving only his true self. If it was not accepted, a couple would have to split up, which was one of the reasons why most marriages came to an end.
Zhao Youlin quietly stared at the serious side profile of the man next to her. She only felt that the warmth flowing in her chest did not dissipate, but grew even warmer.
Compared to Mu Tingfeng, who was wise and all-powerful in the eyes of others, this man in front of her was obviously more adorable.
As she thought of that, the smile on Zhao Youlin’s lips became more and more obvious.
Their date had been spoiled, but for them, they seemed to have become more intimate.
Su Jifeng’s news was right. The third day after Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng received his call, the old master of the Su family and Su He’s parents returned to Shalnork.
When Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng were notified of it, they left work and immediately rushed to the Su Residence.
Though the three of them, including Su Jifeng, did not expect that Su Rui Xin, who happened to be at the company at the time, heard that Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng were going to the Su Residence and that several elders of the Su family had also returned, she directly dropped whatever she was doing and pulled Mu Xiaoyang into the car with her. She was going to follow Mu Tingfeng and Zhao Youlin to see what would be happening.
She even put it nicely to them that she and her husband were not comfortable with them visiting the elders so recklessly like this, so it was more appropriate for them to be with them. Besides, it had been a while since they last saw Old Master Su and their cousin. Hence, this was a great opportunity for them to pay them a visit.
What Su Ruixin said might sound like an excuse, but it was inarguable. Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng could not say anything to turn her down, so they could only bring them together.
Su Jifeng was dumbfounded when he saw them both. After he collected himself, he greeted them awkwardly. “Aunt Ruixin, Uncle Xiaoyang, what a nice surprise.”
Mu Xiaoyang nodded his head and replied perfunctorily, “Hmm.”
Compared to him, Su Ruixin was more enthusiastic. She smiled and walked to Su Jifeng’s side. “I heard that Old Master Su and your parents are coming back today. So I came together with Youlin and Tingfeng. They haven’t arrived yet?”
Su Jifeng smiled wryly and answered, “Oh, hahaha. About that, I just received their call. Grandpa and my parents have gotten off the plane. They are on their way back. They will probably…… They will probably arrive soon.”
“I see. We will wait at the door then.” Su Ruixin dragged Mu Xiaoyang toward the door.
Su Jifeng took this opportunity to pull Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng to the side. He asked in a low voice through his gritted teeth, “What’s wrong with you two? Why did you bring Aunt Ruixin and Uncle Xiaoyang here?”
Zhao Youlin rolled her eyes and said in a resigned manner, “We came here as soon as we could after we received your call. We didn’t know we would run into them at the door. When they heard that we were coming here and that Old Master Su and your parents were coming home today, they insisted on coming with us to pay them a visit. What other choice did we have? We couldn’t just stop them and tell them off, could we?”
“You…” Su Jifeng was infuriated by their indifferent attitude. He was already overwhelmed by the return of the three elders today. That’s why he asked them both to come here so that they could share the burden. Who would have known that they actually brought two more elders here with them? Were they here to help or cause more trouble?
Su Jifeng looked depressed and was about to say something when he suddenly heard the roar of a car engine from outside.
Old Master Su and Su Jifeng’s parents were back!
