Yin Yi could no longer hold back her anger as she asked, “What exactly do you want?”
Song Ning’s smile gradually vanished as she looked at Yin Yi and said, “Don’t you know what I want? Stay away from my husband, and get rid of your blind and foolish confidence. If you dare to meddle in my relationship again, I won’t be polite.”
Yin Yi was stunned by Song Ning’s imposing manner. Even after Song Ning had left for a long time, she still did not regain her senses.
‘Did I underestimate Song Ning?’
…
Ye Cheng raised his glass to Cheng Che and asked with a smile, “How long has it been since we last had a drink together?”
Cheng Che thought about it seriously before he replied, “Ever since you secretly started to steal the Mu Group’s businesses and tried to help your sister marry my brother.”
Ye Cheng’s smile froze on his face. “Cheng Che…”
Cheng Che looked at Ye Cheng innocently and asked, “Did I remember wrongly?”
Ye Cheng surrendered. “Fine, you’re right. I made a mistake, alright?”
Cheng Che only cocked an eyebrow as he looked at Ye Cheng silently.
Ye Cheng took a deep breath before he said, “Alright, let’s not talk about the past, okay? I won’t steal the Mu Group businesses anymore, and I don’t have a sister who wants to marry Mu Chen now. Do you feel at ease now?”
Cheng Che slowly chewed his food and swallowed it before he said, “But you’re scheming against my sister now…”
Ye Cheng set his glass down heavily and feigned anger as he said, “I’m not scheming against your sister. I really like her.We’re in love. Do you understand? We’re dating with the intention to get married. We’re not playing around.”
Cheng Che glanced at Ye Cheng from the corners of his eyes and said, “Oh, I thought the person you love is my brother. I once thought you liked men.”
“You!” Ye Cheng said, “Very good! However, if I like men, it’s more likely that I’ll like you. Why would I like that iceberg, Mu Chen?”
Ye Cheng was both angry and amused.
Cheng Che shuddered and rubbed his arms as goosebumps erupted on his skin.
Then, the two men looked at each other and smiled before they looked away.
Inwardly, Ye Cheng sighed in relief. The slight worry in his heart also disappeared. Finally, he said bluntly, “Cheng Che, I’m here to speak on behalf of your family.”
Cheng Che remained silent.
Ye Cheng asked probingly, “I want to know why you’re unwilling to return to the Yin family? Is the Mu family pressuring you?”
Cheng Che shook his head immediately, “No. Grandma and Brother Chen have always respected and supported me. They have nothing to do with this.”
Ye Cheng did not believe Cheng Che, but he did not pursue this sensitive matter. Instead, he asked, “Then, what is it? Do you know how much your sister worries about you? You’re her biological brother. You’re the closest person to her in this world. She doesn’t want the things that belong to you to be divided among other people in the future. Moreover, those people are her enemies.”
When Ye Cheng spoke, his voice was filled with distress.
Cheng Che’s eyes widened as he asked, “Do they not treat my sister well?”
The expression on Cheng Che’s face at this moment seemed to indicate that as long as Ye Cheng nodded in response to his question, he would rush to confront the Yin family immediately.
Ye Cheng could not help but praise Cheng Che inwardly. He also thought about how lucky Cheng Che was that Mu Chen and Jiang Jin treated Cheng Che so sincerely even though Cheng Che was adopted. Moreover, Cheng Che was also very outstanding.
Seeing that Ye Cheng did not speak, Cheng Che smacked his hands on the table, looking as though he was about to stand up as he asked again, “Are they mistreating her?”
Ye Cheng hastily pulled Cheng Che back and said in an attempt to appease Cheng Che, “Why are you so anxious? When did I say Yin Jia was mistreated? She has a very high status in the Yin family, and your grandfather dotes on her a lot. In fact, she has more say than your father. The family treats her well.”
