Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Nie Yunfan was still absorbed in the afterglow of Han Yichen’s successful marriage proposal, so much so that he was totally unaware of the hint of mockery in Zhao Youlin’s words. He said smugly, “Ms. Zhao, you’re right. I must say, no one understands ladies better than me. At least all my girlfriends were…”

“Ahem!” Before Nie Yunfan finished speaking, Mu Tingfeng, who had been keeping quiet at the side, could no longer bear to listen to his words anymore. He faked several coughs and shot a glance at Nie Yunfan.

Only then did Nie Yunfan notice the hint of disdainfulness that was without even the slightest bit of admiration from the way she looked at him.

Indeed, right after Nie Yufan’s gaze met Zhao Youlin’s, she blurted out without hesitation, “Hah!”

Nie Yunfan fell speechless.

Young Master Nie, who always thrived in romance, was struck dumb upon hearing Zhao Youlin’s words that were filled with sarcasm. He stood rooted on the spot.

By the time he had finally snapped out of his daze, Zhao Youlin added, “Things over there looked very cool indeed. However, I believe it’s not easy to come up with so many roses at a time, right?”

Nie Yunfan was revived upon hearing Zhao Youlin’s words. The opportunity had arrived for him to fight back. He said smugly, “Indeed, it is not an easy feat for an average person to collect so many roses at a time, especially freshly plucked roses. However, this is not a big deal for me.”

‘That’s because normal people wouldn’t ever be as pompous as you!’

Looking at Nie Yunfan’s smug and annoyed look, a wicked smile arched across her lips and she said cruelly, ” Young Master Nie, once the crowd leaves, remember to clean up the mess such as flower petals, stalks, and leaves on the ground so as not to affect my business.”

The smile on Nie Yunfan’s face turned stiff. He recovered his senses after some time. He stared at Zhao Youlin resentfully as he said, “Ms. Zhao, don’t be so cruel to me. I am Chen’s good buddy. Chen is your older brother, so I’m at least your elder as well. Don’t treat me like this, okay?”

“Why not?” Zhao Youlin sneered, “Young Master Nie, you are an elder and yet, you messed up my outlet like this?! I’ve already given my respect to you by simply asking you to clean up the mess. Otherwise, if not for my older brother, I would have long driven you out of my outlet instead of having you discussing the issue with me!”

Nie Yunfan was rendered speechless. Just when he was about to continue, Mu Tingfeng had taken over his conversation first.

“Did you guys say that man is Youlin’s older brother?”

Nie Yunfan was stunned. His gaze moved back and forth over Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng before he cried out in surprise, “Didn’t you inform him about this?”

Zhao Youlin was equally startled. Before this, they had not yet confirmed if Han Yichen was going to take them in. Therefore, it would not be good if they revealed too much information about Han Yichen before he returned to the Zhao family. As such, she had not brought up this matter to Mu Tingfeng. She never expected…

“What’s going on?” Upon hearing Nie Yunfan’s inquiry and seeing that Zhao Youlin was slightly at a loss, Mu Tingfeng immediately knew that Zhao Youlin had concealed something from him. His expression instantly turned dark.

Something which Nie Yunfan had known about but he had been kept out of the loop. Thinking of this, he felt jealous.

“It’s a long story.” Zhao Youlin heaved a sigh before she said in a low voice, “To make a long story short, Han Yichen is my parents’ biological son. The child, whom my mother had given birth to in the hospital and ruled dead back then, had not died yet. In fact, he had been secretly swapped with a dead infant and taken out of the hospital. Han Yichen was the stolen child, my parents’ biological son, as well as my nominal older brother.”

Mu Tingfeng was struck dumb in place after he heard Zhao Youlin’s clear and concise explanation. What caught him by surprise was not the fact that Han Yichen was the Zhao family’s son who had been in exile. Instead, he was shocked over the fact that Han Yichen was Zhao Youlin’s nominal older brother!

The Zhao couple had always liked children. This could be seen from the way they treated Zhao Youlin like their own child and how they adored Joy like their own grandson.

Now, their blood-related biological son has appeared. Even though Mu Tingfeng had not seen how Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong treated Han Yichen, he could imagine the couple would place a huge priority on their son whom they had regained with so much difficulty.

Zhao Youlin equally showed as much concern for the Zhao family’s elders. Likewise, she most likely treated his older brother in the same way.

As Mu Tingfeng realized this, his expression unwittingly turned dark as he recalled having a conflict with Han Yichen not long ago.

Zhao Youlin noticed Mu Tingfeng’s expression began to darken after he finished hearing her explanation. She was puzzled and could not help but ask, “What’s wrong? Are you shocked to learn about my older brother’s background?”

He was truly shocked to learn about it. In fact, he was horrified!

Mu Tingfeng looked up at Zhao Youlin with his dark demeanor. He looked very quiet. Before he had even courted his wife, he had already offended her older brother!

At a moment like this, he could only hope that her older brother would not be too narrow-minded and hold a grudge against him due to a minor misunderstanding.

Unfortunately, President Mu had forgotten that he had not only offended Han Yichen a little.

Han Yichen naturally would not remember him by heart because of his minor mistake once. However, the fact was that his past with Zhao Youlin had already etched in Han Yichen’s heart!

Of course, all that would come later.

Mu Tingfeng looked at Zhao Youlin with a sense of responsibility. He hesitated for some time before he blurted out, “Nothing.”

Zhao Youlin looked at Mu Tingfeng in puzzlement. She thought that this man was not being frank with her. His expression was so dark. He did not look like he was fine at all.

Did he get angry because she had not been honest with him?

Thinking of this, the corners of Zhao Youlin’s lips could not help but twitch. How could she fail to realize that this guy was actually so narrow-minded?

As Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng were discussing their private issues, Nie Yunfan seized the opportunity to sneak away discreetly.

After he took a few steps forward, a cold snort rose from behind, “Young Master Nie, remember to finish cleaning those things outside before you leave. Otherwise, I would have a headache.”

Nie Yunfan paused mid-stride. His body turned stiff. He turned his head around, only to be greeted by the sight of Zhao Youlin throwing a… radiant smile at him.

Nie Yunfan instantly burst out in tears. Couldn’t you just turn a blind eye to this?!
