“Cough, cough…” the two of them were talking as if no one was around when a low cough suddenly came from behind them. When they turned around, they saw Duan Yarong and the others standing not far away, looking at them with faint smiles.
Zhao Youlin’s expression instantly stiffened. “Dad, Mom, when did you guys come out? Why didn’t you say anything?”
Duan Yarong walked over with a smile. She grabbed Zhao Youlin’s hand and said with a smile, “When did we come out? Weren’t we right behind you all the time? Your heart only took notice of a single person and we disappeared into the background.”
Zhao Youlin’s face turned red from Duan Yarong’s tease. Only then did she remember that they seemed to have been close behind her and that they had come out together. However, she was too surprised when she saw Mu Tingfeng, so she had quickly forgotten about them. Moreover, didn’t they all… hear everything she had said to Mu Tingfeng just now?
“Mom!” Zhao Youlin’s face instantly turned red. Until now, she still felt that it was a little embarrassing for others to see her and Mu Tingfeng being too intimate, especially when it was seen by her family.
Duan Yarong felt gratified and sad when she saw Zhao Youlin’s reaction. She was gratified that this couple was truly in love with one another and they didn’t need to worry at all. She was sad because she felt that her position in Zhao Youlin’s heart couldn’t be compared to Mu Tingfeng’s.
While Zhao Youlin was embarrassed, Mu Tingfeng almost appeared smug. He opened his mouth and said, “Hello, father-in-law, mother-in-law, grandfather. I heard about the incident, so I came over to take a look.”
Duan Yarong’s expression softened when she heard Mu Tingfeng’s words. Although her son-in-law was cold, he still cared about Youlin.
“Yes, there was a little surprise, but fortunately, it amounted to nothing much. It’s getting late. Youlin should be tired after a long day. You should take her home early and have a good rest.”
“But Mom…” Zhao Youlin still wanted to stay to see Zhao Youming’s dejected look. She didn’t want to leave so early.
Duan Yarong seemed to have seen through Zhao Youlin’s thoughts and disagreed. “It’s been messy enough. We’ll handle it from now on.”
Zhao Youlin couldn’t dissuade Duan Yarong, so she could only nod obediently. Zhao Youlin didn’t want to leave, so she didn’t want to see Zhao Youlin in such a bad mood. However, she didn’t want to see Zhao Youlin in such a bad mood.
Mu Tingfeng openly took Zhao Youlin’s hand and was about to leave with his people when a figure walked out of the police station.
Everyone’s conversation suddenly stopped. Zhao Youming seemed to have noticed this as well, and the smile on his face froze. He had planned to put on a smile to redeem his image in the hearts of the elders. Now it seemed that there was no hope.
Zhao Youming was on the top of the stairs, while Zhao Youlin and the others had already walked to the flat ground under the stairs. They looked at each other awkwardly and didn’t say anything for a long time.
Zhao Youming felt his throat drying up, and only after a long time did he speak. “Grandfather, I…”
Before he could finish speaking, the former master had already interrupted him, “It’s getting late. You should go home first. You don’t have to come to work. Just now, Officer Jiang said that he would send people over for your safety, so you should stay at home for now. As for other matters, we’ll talk about it after this matter is resolved.”
Zhao Youming’s expression changed. He felt that the former master’s words had almost completely destroyed the last glimmer of hope in his heart. His expression immediately became a little twisted, he hurriedly lowered his head to hide the resentment and indignance in his eyes. He replied in a low voice, “O-okay.”
The former master was well-versed in human communication. How could he not see Zhao Youming’s brief change in expression just now? He shook his head. The disappointment in his eyes only grew. The last bit of doubt he had for Zhao Youming’s benefit disappeared.
Unfortunately, Zhao Youming had lowered his head and did not notice it.
At a hidden corner, a figure took out the SIM card from their phone after leaving the Zhao group and threw it into the trash can. Then, they took out another SIM card from their pocket and made a call. They asked someone to drive over to pick them up.
About five minutes later, a car appeared in front of the person. The person looked around, and after making sure that no one was looking in their direction, zipped into the passenger seat.
The car started again and soon disappeared at the end of the street.
The young man saw that the car had gone far away. Then, he took off the hat on his head and revealed an excited face. The owner of this face was Zhao Yifei, who was supposed to have left Shalnork!
The driver looked ahead and asked as if nothing had happened, “How was it?”
Zhao Yifei instantly became pleased with himself. “You don’t have to ask. Zhao Youming saw that woman, and he was not happy at all. It’s a pity that you weren’t there just now. Otherwise, you could have taken a good look at Zhao Youming’s downfall. He was almost in tears.”
“There’s no rush. There are plenty of opportunities.”
Zhao Yifei raised his eyebrows when he heard this. There was a smug smile on his face. “That’s true. After this mess, Zhao Youming is basically ruined. We’ll see how he falls from grace from now on.”
“It’s not enough.”
“What?”
“I said it’s not enough.” There was a red light in front. The driver took out something from the glove compartment and threw it to Zhao Yifei.
Zhao Yifei caught it in a hurry and asked in confusion, “What’s this?”
“Something on Zhao Youming.”
“You have more?!” Zhao Yifei was shocked.
“Zhao Youming was too impatient. He thought that the little b*tch Zhao Youlin was out of the country, so he had nothing to worry about in the company. This is the information about him secretly transferring his assets from the company during this period. There is also evidence that he tampered with a project that Zhao Youlin was heading.”
Zhao Yifei quickly became excited. “Oh my God, with these things, regardless of whether that woman finishes Zhao Youming off, he will definitely not be able to continue living in the Zhao Group. Where did you get all these? They are really amazing.”
The driver did not answer directly. They only replied indifferently, “You don’t need to know where you got them. You just need to think of a way to send them to the former master or Zhao Youlin.”
“It won’t be easy. I’ll go to the express delivery company in a while and mail these documents.”
“Try to be discreet.”
“You don’t need to tell me that.”
The driver did not speak further. They seemed to be focused on driving, but the corners of their lips curled up subconsciously. They were clearly in a good mood.
While looking at the cars in front of him, the driver’s eyes suddenly narrowed. It was not enough, it was not enough. Just destroying Zhao Youming’s reputation and throwing him out of the Zhao family was far from enough. They wanted to make Zhao Youming suffer more and struggle more. This was only the beginning!
