Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Mu Tingfeng’s eyes flashed and he shook his head. “No one knew.”

“Was it because you didn’t ask?” Zhao Youlin understood Mu Tingfeng’s silent nature. Therefore, she asked him in suspicion.

A hint of embarrassment as a result of being exposed flashed across Mu Tingfeng’s expression. Soon, he resumed normalcy. He faked a cough, trying to redeem his pride and said, “After she returned to them, Jifeng had asked her the same question. However, Xiao Qi was not willing to say anything. Xiao Qi thought that this was a secret solely belonging to her and that boy. As such, she did not share it with anyone, not even her beloved older brother.”

Zhao Youlin fell silent. It took her some time before she blurted out, “What happened next, then? What happened after you found Xiao He?”

“Nothing much. At that time, Xiao Qi’s parents had been worrying sick for her. The moment I found Xiao Qi, I naturally took her back to her parents.”

“How about Ye Yan?”

Mu Tingfeng was stunned. For a moment, his expression was a little stiff.

When Zhao Youlin saw him in his current state, she narrowed her eyes and asked profoundly, “So, did you just leave Ye Yan on the spot as soon as you took Xiao He away?”

Mu Tingfeng’s expression cracked. Seeing this, Zhao Youlin knew that she was right. The corners of her lips twitched. She truly fell speechless.

Mu Tingfeng crumbled with guilt under Zhao Youlin’s glare. He faked a cough awkwardly and switched the topic, “Jifeng and the Su family heaved a sigh of relief after they saw Xiao Qi. As such, they did not pay much attention to the fact that she had spent a long time alone with that boy. However, since the incident of Xiao Qi simply running around, her parents had noticed her loneliness at home. Before they left, they had reminded us to accompany Xiao Qi whenever possible.”

“In other words, you guys always played together since young and are counted as childhood playmates, huh?” Zhao Youlin played along with Mu Tingfeng. However, her words sounded…

“We are not really counted as childhood playmates. In fact, Su Qing went there more often than I did.” Mu Tingfeng added so that Zhao Youlin no longer dwelled on this topic.

“We all had thought that that was the end of Xiao Qi’s friendship with that boy. After all, kids are usually forgetful. By the time she grew up, she would have forgotten most of the things.”

“However, the truth was Xiao He had never forgotten them, right?”

Mu Tingfeng nodded. “You also noticed how much Jifeng cared about his young sister. Even though there is a six years age gap between them, Xiao Qi’s parents often work outstation, leaving Jifeng and Xiao Qi to rely on each other. As such, Jifeng has taken care of Xiao Qi like his own younger sister ever since young. By the time Xiao Qi grows up, Jifeng is the one who is more concerned about her future partner than the rest.”

When Mu Tingfeng was saying this, he unwittingly recalled the day of Su He’s sixteenth birthday. At that time, Su Jifeng had looked unusually decadent and said that when Su He’s wedding day arrived, he wondered if he could hold himself back not to take a gun and shoot down the bastard who robbed him of his beloved younger sister whom he had raised for more than a decade.

At that time, Mu Tingfeng had thought that Su Jifeng had exaggerated his statements. As he recalled this, he could imagine that if Zhao Youlin gave birth to their daughter who was as beautiful and cute as Su He, watched her grow up day by day and learn to speak, walk, run and jump and slowly grew up to become an adult, a pretty woman who was pleasing in the sight of everyone, he would also be reluctant to personally hand his daughter over to another man whom he loved so wholeheartedly!

At the end of the day, Su Jifeng was not treating Su He as his younger sister. In fact, he was treating her like his own daughter!

Upon hearing this, Zhao Youlin could not help but raise one of her eyebrows. The eldest young master of the Su family had a strong possessiveness over his younger sister!

No wonder… No wonder the moment Su Jifeng learned that Su He had conceived Ye Yan’s child, he immediately burst out in anger and wanted to get Ye Yan killed in public. Luckily Mu Tingfeng had mentioned Su He and gotten Su Jifeng to change his mind.

A creature with a strong possessiveness over his younger sister was the same as a crazy fan who crazed for their idols, both of which were creatures who were equally hard to understand!

“Jifeng is so concerned about Xiao Qi’s future marriage. However, little did he know that there is already someone else in Xiao Qi’s heart. By the time Xiao Qi’s sixteenth birthday was over, she took the initiative to suggest that she wanted to study overseas.”

“Study overseas?”

“Yes. At that time, the Su family had objected to Xiao Qi’s suggestion to study overseas. This was especially so for Jifeng. However, Xiao Qi had insisted. In the end, she got worked up and finally spoke about the reason why she wanted to study overseas.”

“What… was the reason?”

Mu Tingfeng hesitated for some time before he heaved a sigh and answered her, “Xiao Qi told us that she has someone whom she likes very much. Therefore, she wanted to work harder and study overseas to make herself better in order to stay with him and be worthy of him.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Youlin nearly choked on her own saliva. She could imagine how awkward it had been for Su He, whose looks were as cute as a doll to speak solemnly like this.

However, Zhao Youlin was more curious about…

“Urm… What was the eldest young master of the Su family’s reaction when he heard this?”

Mu Tingfeng froze. When he noticed the obvious hint of gloat in Zhao Youlin’s eyes, he felt helpless and did not know if he should laugh or cry as he said, “What do you think?”

Zhao Youlin cocked one of her eyebrows. Apparently, she did not quite accept Mu Tingfeng’s ambiguous answer.

Mu Tingfeng grew increasingly helpless. He was in a dilemma to choose between his buddy and wife. After a few seconds, he decided to betray his buddy without a sense of decency.

“Initially, Jifeng thought that Xiao Qi was referring to him and he was overjoyed.”

“Pfff!” Zhao Youlin almost burst into laughter. “After that?”

“After that, the more he heard from Xiao Qi, the more he felt that something was wrong. It was only after some time that he finally reacted to it and seemed to know that Xiao Qi had not been referring to him. His face instantly… turned black.”

“Hahaha!” Zhao Youlin truly could not hold herself back anymore and let out a bark of laughter. The moment she imagined Su Jifeng’s drastic change in his expression like falling into a bottomless pit from heaven upon hearing Xiao Qi’s words, she could not stop laughing.

Seeing her laughter, the hint of helplessness in Mu Tingfeng’s eyes grew stronger. However, soon, he covered that hint with a smile.

In fact, the stoic-faced President Mu would not admit that he too had actually wanted to laugh as well the moment he witnessed Su Jifeng’s change of expression in that split of a second!

“How about later? Did the young master Su agree to let Xiao He go abroad?”

Mu Tingfeng nodded. “My uncle, aunt and Jifeng were truly reluctant. However, Xiao Qi had insisted. Therefore, their objections were pointless.”

Zhao Youlin nodded with understanding. The smile on her face faded slightly. The next moment, she looked like she recalled something and asked solemnly, “So, is Ye Yan the one who has motivated Xiao He to continue working so hard and hope that she would be worthy of him?”
