Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Chapter 418: The Family (2)

Originally, Zhao Youlin was worried that Duan Yarong and the rest of her group would have some negative preconceptions about Han Yichen and An Yue regarding that incident.

After listening to their words today, all that she had envisioned before this had been in vain.
In fact, she had worried too much.

Indeed, birds of a feather flock together.

After the former master finished speaking, he realized that he had lost his composure.
He faked a cough and took the initiative to switch the topic.
He said, “In fact, I’ve already spared the time out and met my future granddaughter-in-law before.”

Right after the former master spoke, Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong immediately turned their attention to him.

“Father, you’ve met the girl before? What did she look like? Urm… Nevermind.
Her looks and family background are of secondary importance.
What mattered most was her temperament.
I want to know if she’s the right one for Chen and if she could take care of him.”

Duan Yarong asked a series of questions at a time.
Upon hearing this, the corners of Zhao Youlin’s lips twitched.

The former master knew that Duan Yarong cared so much about her son whom they had taken great pains to recover.
Therefore, he did not plan to keep them in suspense.
He smiled as he answered, “Yarong, don’t worry.
That lass is working at Youlin’s outlet.
Her character is naturally trustworthy.
Even though she does not look particularly beautiful, she looks demure and neat.
Besides, she is very gentle and attentive.
She is very understanding and polite as well.
However, she’s a bit shy.
I had a chat with her before.
I have quite a good impression of her.
She is also very respectful of an old man like me.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Youlin glared at the former master discreetly.
‘Respectful? You have nearly scared the hell out of the girl and almost got beaten up by the onlookers at the sidelines for being mistaken as a perverted old man!’ How dare he even have the guts to say so!

Upon hearing the former master’s words, Duan Yarong heaved a sigh of relief.
Still, the hint of curiosity and mother instincts of worrying about her own child was obvious in her eyes.

Zhao Youlin naturally noticed this.
She smiled gently as she said, “Mother, I know that no matter what I and Grandpa said, you and Father would not be at ease until you meet her in person.
I believe my brother has thought of this too.
Therefore, I suppose he would bring her over to let you guys take a look.
However, like I mentioned earlier and so did Grandpa, Yue Yue is a bit shy.
Father, Mother, by that time, don’t be too serious.
If not, you would scare her.”

As Zhao Youlin was speaking, she turned her head around and said this to the former master, “Especially you, Grandpa.”

The former master hunched his shoulders under Zhao Youlin’s sudden cold stare.
He looked angry and his expression was akin to saying how could Zhao Youlin be so unfaithful, ungrateful, unfilial and disobedient.
He was rebuking Zhao Youlin in silence.

Zhao Youlin decided to turn a blind eye to this.
She paid attention to Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong.

When Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong learned from Zhao Youlin that Han Yichen would bring their future daughter-in-law back to meet them, their eyes lit up and they were filled with expectancy.

“When are they coming over? Are they coming in these two days? Why hasn’t that kid told us earlier? Is there anything that we need to prepare? Youlin, do you know what dishes Yue Yue prefers? I’ll have the kitchen lady get preparing earlier.
Also…”

Before Duan Yarong finished speaking, Zhao Youlin had already snickered, “Mother, don’t be so nervous.
Since my older brother is willing to take Yue Yue to visit you, it means that he has acknowledged you guys.
As for Yue Yue, she gets more nervous than you.
When my older brother brought this up, she kept asking if you guys have any preference on anything.
She is worried that if she comes here empty-handed, you might find her to be rude.”

Upon hearing Zhao Youlin’s words, Duan Yarong was caught by surprise.
She exchanged a look with Zhao Shunrong.

The girl had taken the initiative to ask about their preference and thought of bringing a gift to them during their visit.
Regardless of the value of the gift, they appreciated her kind thoughts.

Like what the former master had mentioned, she was very polite and thoughtful.

When Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong thought of this tacitly, they looked at each other with a smile.

“How thoughtful of her… Go back and tell her that we are very happy as long as your older brother is willing to take her back to visit us.
We don’t lack anything.
They don’t have to spend unnecessarily.”

Zhao Youlin smiled at them in return.
In her heart, she did not plan to tell this to An Yue.

No matter how it was, first impressions had always been very important.
There was no reason why Yue Yue should miss such a good opportunity to brush up her image.

“Speaking of this…” After Duan Yarong finished discussing Han Yichen’s matter, she switched the topic and related it to Zhao Youlin.
“Youlin, how are you and President Mu doing now?”

As parents, once their children grew up, they naturally cared so much about their relationship and marriage issues.

Han Yichen’s matter was basically settled.
Even if Duan Yarong and the rest of her group had opinions about An Yue, judging from Han Yichen’s personality, it was highly unlikely for him to give up on An Yue.

Therefore, regarding this matter, Duan Yarong and the rest did not have much say on it.
However, Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng’s case was different.

Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng’s previous failed marriage had always been a thorn in her heart.

Although she no longer found Mu Tingfeng as sickening as before, their relationship had remained stagnant without making much progress.
As such, she was worried about them.

Zhao Youlin had never thought Duan Yarong would suddenly switch the topic and relate to her.
She said awkwardly, “Mother, why are you… asking this?”

Duan Yarong read Zhao Youlin’s mind.
She knew this was her taboo.
She glared at her disapprovingly, “What’s wrong? Why couldn’t I ask you this?”

“Mother, I don’t mean that.” The smile on Zhao Youlin’s face turned a little stiff.
In fact, she also wanted to talk about this topic.
However, she did not know how to bring up this topic.
Mu Tingfeng…

Duan Yarong heaved a sigh and said, “Youlin, I’m not forcing you.
I just hope that you have someone beside you.
Regardless if that man is Mu Tingfeng, most importantly, he has to treat you well.
Your father, me, and grandpa could not stay by your side for the rest of your life.
When the time comes and you still remain single, how could we be at ease?”

From Duan Yarong’s point of view, even though Zhao Youlin was still very young, she was still very worried about her because no one could take care of her, this was especially so when she had Joy with her.

Not only did Zhao Youlin need a husband who could always protect her, but Joy also needed a father to love him.

Zhao Youlin was upset upon hearing Duan Yarong’s words.
She then recalled Mu Tingfeng’s serious demeanor but his expression always softened up whenever he looked at her and Joy.

Her heart was beating uncontrollably.
Perhaps… Perhaps, she really had to sort out her relationship with Mu Tingfeng properly.
