Chapter 722 Adding Insult To Injury (2)
Even those who had taken a fancy to his family background, those who once tried to curry favor with him, wanted to be friends with him, those people all changed. In the blink of an eye, he had turned into a lapdog who kneeled on his knees and licked toes.
His world had turned upside down. People were either cold or warm, and human nature was ugly. However, in two days, he had seen more than he had ever seen in the past twenty
years.
Zhao Youming saw Zhao Yifei’s face turn from green to white. He knew that he had once again hit Zhao Yifei’s sore spot. His heart was filled with joy.
He had been suppressed by Zhao Yifei for so many years. Now, he could finally vent his anger. It really matched the old saying, “What goes around comes around!” Zhao Youming narrowed his eyes and suddenly moved closer to Zhao Yifei’s ear. He said in a low voice, “Zhao Yifei, don’t think that I don’t know why grandfather kicked you out of the house. You’ve been calling me an illegitimate child for so many years, you little bastard. How is it? Now you’ve become the so-called illegitimate child, while I’m at least half a bastard. Little bastard, it hurts, doesn’t it?”
Zhao Yifei’s entire body trembled as he tightened his grip on the cardboard box. His eyes were fixed on Zhao Youming. If it weren’t for the fact that there was still some rationality left in his heart, he might have already pounced on Zhao Youming and died together with him.
Zhao Youming was amused by Zhao Yifei’s expression. However, this was far from enough for him. “Oh, right. We might not be able to see each other again in the future, and we’ve been cousins for so many years. If I don’t prepare a gift for you, it’s inevitable that people will say that I’m too stingy, so…”
Zhao Yifei’s body instantly tensed up, and he stared at Zhao Youming with a guarded expression. He didn’t believe that Zhao Youming would be so kind as to prepare some gift for him, and it was probably something to humiliate him…
Zhao Yifei’s guess was right, Zhao Youming indeed harbored ill intentions. “So, I’ll tell you something out of kindness. I’ll let you die in a way without being blindsided to the point of not even knowing who killed you.”
Zhao Yifei frowned and looked at Zhao Youming with suspicion and wariness. Zhao Youming then asked, “Aren’t you curious how your mother knew about that woman’s pregnancy and couldn’t wait to attack her?”
Zhao Yifei’s eyes widened, and he looked at Zhao Youming in disbelief. Could it be…
The smile on Zhao Youming’s lips deepened when he saw this. “That’s right. I deliberately revealed it to her so that I could use her hand to touch that woman and the child in her belly.”
In fact, Zhao Youming’s original intention was to use Sun Fengzi’s hand to get rid of the child in that woman’s belly and prevent a big disaster for himself.
If he succeeded, the child in the woman’s stomach would slip. Zhao Youlin and the others would definitely not let it go. If they could find Sun Fengzi and get rid of her in one fell swoop… after pushing down Zhao Yifei’s biggest backer, Zhao Yifei was like a tiger with its teeth pulled out without Sun Fengzi behind him. He only knew how to bluff his way around and would no longer be a match for him. It could really be said that he had killed two birds with one stone. However, he did not expect that in the end, the child in the woman’s belly would be fine, but Sun Fengzi and Zhao Yifei would both fall. Sun Fengzi would be locked away for a long time, but if she was fortunate, she could live long enough to see the end of her sentence. However, Zhao Yifei was actually kicked out of the house. The reason was actually…
It had not exactly gone to plan, this could be considered a pleasant surprise, couldn’t it?
Zhao Yifei’s face was as dark as ink.He clutched the edge of the cardboard box tightly. The veins on the back of his hands bulged. It was obvious that he was suppressing an insurmountable level of rage at the moment.
He took a deep breath and warned himself in his heart that Zhao Youming wanted him unhinged, in the open. He absolutely could not let him get what he wanted.
With this thought in mind, Zhao Yifei temporarily suppressed the fury in his heart and said coldly, “Are you done?”
“What?” Zhao Youming frowned and looked at Zhao Yifei. Obviously, he had not expected this much restraint from Zhao Yifei. He did not even raise his eyebrows. Was Zhao Yifei such a tolerant person?
Zhao Youming’s stunned look calmed Zhao Yifei down a little. “Are you done? If you’re done, move aside. I still have to go home to pack my things.”
Zhao Youming took a deep look at Zhao Yifei, as if trying to find out if this person was the easily riled up Zhao Yifei.
Zhao Yifei ignored Zhao Youming and walked around him.
This time, Zhao Youming didn’t stop him. He looked at Zhao Yifei’s back and fell into deep thought.
Unbeknownst to them, someone had witnessed the whole exchange, standing in front of the French window in the company corridor. He had a complicated expression.
“Third uncle.” A familiar voice suddenly came from behind. Zhao Shunchang was stunned. He turned his head and saw Zhao Youlin walking toward him.
“Ah, Youlin.” Zhao Shunchang wanted to laugh, but the expression on his face was a little stiff. He couldn’t laugh at all. He could only say awkwardly, “Why are you here?”
“I was bored in the office and came out to get some air. Third Uncle, why are you here too?”
Although he said that, in reality, Zhao Youlin had heard that Zhao Yifei was returning to the company today and was a little curious. That was why she had specially come out to watch the show. She had not expected to meet Zhao Shunchang outside.
Zhao Youlin glanced downstairs without revealing anything.
Zhao Shunchang’s eyes shifted and said guiltily, “I… I was a little bored in the office, so I came out to get some air.”
“Is that so?” Zhao Youlin looked at the obvious fatigue on Zhao Shunchang’s face and knew that although Zhao Shunchang said that he was fine, he still cared about Zhao Yifei’s matter in his heart, so she tentatively suggested, “Third Uncle, I see that you have not been looking very well recently. Do you want to go home and rest for a few days? After the storm has passed, then…”
Zhao Shunchang was startled. He hesitated for a moment, but still shook his head. “No need. I’m fine now.”
Although there might be some gossip in the company, if he went home to rest and did nothing, his thoughts would run wild.
Rather than that, it was better to put his entire being into his work.
