Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Chapter 222: The Fourth Person in the Zhao Family (1)

Because of Xia Zhetao’s silence, Mu Tingfeng finally got a bit of tranquility. He did not even think that his threatening words had caused Xia Zhetao to have a headcanon. Right now, he only had one thought.

Back then, the reason why he had asked Su Qing to come over to help was to let her act it out with him and make Zhao Youlin misunderstand. He wanted to take advantage of it to divorce her. But now, how should he explain this misunderstanding? It gave him a headache.

At this moment, Zhao Youlin still did not know what kind of surprise Mu Tingfeng was preparing to give her when they met again. Cough. Cough. Well, she might be scared as well.

After provoking Zhao Shuncheng without leaving a trace, Zhao Youlin learned that Zhao Shuncheng had gone home and fought against Li Hongyu and her daughter not long after that.

Zhao Youlin was satisfied to hear that. Li Hongyu had been pretentious her whole life. She worked hard to plan everything and thought that everything was under her control. However, she had not expected her plan to fail. Besides, it was impossible for her to get the upper hand again according to Zhao Youlin’s personality.

“Youlin, I heard from Uncle Xiao that you kicked Youxi out of the Zhao Enterprise some time ago. You… Did he come to find you and give you trouble?” Duan Yarong had been busy with the matter of Joy attending kindergarten recently, so she did not care much about the company’s affairs.

Now that Joy’s kindergarten matters had been settled, she finally had time to ask about this matter.

In fact, Duan Yarong was really not interested in the incident of Zhao Youlin kicking Zhao Youxi out of the Zhao Enterprise. Not only was she uninterested, but she also thought that Zhao Youlin’s decision had been very correct.

It was not that she avoided Zhao Youxi because she was worried that she would help Zhao Shuncheng grab the Zhao family property and status like what the outsiders said. She just did not like Zhao Youxi who was obviously an illegitimate daughter but had a temperament that was more arrogant than Zhao Youlin, the legitimate daughter. She was a very unreasonable girl. To be straightforward, she kept Zhao Youxi in the Zhao Enterprise to give Zhao Shuncheng some respect. Otherwise, with her ability, she was just making trouble instead of helping.

What Duan Yarong really cared about was whether Zhao Shuncheng had come to trouble Zhao Youlin after she kicked her away. Although she had always believed in Zhao Youlin’s ability, Zhao Shuncheng was Zhao Youlin’s relative after all. Duan Yarong worried that Zhao Youlin would be bullied by Zhao Shuncheng.

Zhao Youlin was stunned for a while. She looked at Duan Yarong, who was obviously worried and smiled. “He came to find me, of course. But Mom, you don’t have to worry. I have already sent him away. Besides, he probably won’t dare to come and find trouble with me in the future anymore, so you can rest assured.”

“Huh?” Duan Yarong glanced at Zhao Youlin in surprise.

Zhao Youlin smiled and did not speak.

Zhao Youxi’s incident was soon found out by Xiao Jingyao. Xiao Jingyao was originally Zhao Shunrong’s subordinate, so he did not plan to hide it from Zhao Shunrong. He had already told Zhao Shunrong and the old master about this matter in detail previously.

After hearing about this, the old master was very angry. In the end, he had almost immediately asked people to find a reason to send Zhao Youxi to Yavadvipa.

Fortunately, Zhao Youlin managed to stop the old master’s plan at the last moment by saying, “I’ll take care of them myself, so Grandpa, you guys shouldn’t interfere.”

Poor Zhao Shuncheng was in a panic and did not dare to let the old master know about this. He was scared that the old master would vent his anger on him, but he did not expect the old master to already know about it. He was just reining it in.

So, some things would be forgotten easily if someone made a fuss over it. However, this kind of forced tranquility before the storm was the scariest one.

Although Zhao Shunrong and other people knew about Zhao Youxi’s incident, they all hid it from Duan Yarong.

On the one hand, they felt that if Duan Yarong knew about this, she would definitely fight with Zhao Youxi without thinking of anything. It was not worth it.

On the other hand, they did not want Duan Yarong to worry about Zhao Youlin anymore. For several days after the previous elevator incident, Duan Yarong would have nightmares of something bad happening to Zhao Youlin almost every night, so she was under the weather. Because of this, Zhao Youlin and Zhao Shunrong were worried for a while.

Now, they finally used Joy’s affair to distract her attention from that incident. If they told her about it now, it might cause her to panic again.

Duan Yarong looked at the smile on Zhao Youlin’s face. She knew that she did not want to talk much about it, so she did not ask anymore. She could only repeat her words, “No matter who goes to find trouble with you in the future, you must ask someone to tell me and your dad if you can’t solve it. Don’t let yourself be bullied.”

“Okay, I get it,” Zhao Youlin responded obediently.

Duan Yarong muttered to herself. Suddenly, she took Zhao Youlin’s hand as if she thought of something and said, “Oh yeah, I heard that Youming will be coming back in a few days. Your third aunt’s child is still in the hospital. After Youming comes back, maybe he will go to the company. You just fought with Youxi and her family. Although he is a slight improvement over Youxi, you can’t explain it clearly even though you’re not at fault. They are a family, after all. You better pay more attention to him and be careful.”

“Youming?” Zhao Youlin frowned as she found this name unfamiliar.

Duan Yarong was stunned. Then, she seemed to have thought of something and said with relief, “Youming is Youxi’s younger brother. He is also your…”

Now that Duan Yarong mentioned it, Zhao Youlin finally remembered that besides Zhao Youxi, her half-sister, she still had a strange younger brother who was about the same age as her.

It was just that this younger brother seemed to have been studying abroad. It was said that he was a high-achieving student who was completely different from Zhao Youxi. He could only come back for several times a year, so since Zhao Youlin became the current Zhao Youlin, she had not met this so-called younger brother at all.

“Youming has been studying abroad in recent years, and you basically stayed at Mu family’s house and rarely came back. It is normal that you suddenly forget about him.”

“You’re right.” What Duan Yarong said happened to give Zhao Youlin an out, so Zhao Youlin quickly smiled and responded to hide her unnatural moment.

“But…” Zhao Youlin quickly returned to normal. She changed the topic and solved her confusion at the same time. “I heard that he has been studying abroad all the time, and he didn’t even come back to grandma’s memorial day not long ago. Why did he come back suddenly?”

“I’m not particularly clear about the details as well. I heard that his courses abroad have ended, so he wants to come back to find something to do.”

Duan Yarong’s words raised Zhao Youlin’s guard. The courses had ended? If she was not mistaken, the winter break abroad had ended a long time ago and now was the beginning of a new semester. If Zhao Youming’s courses had really ended, he should have been back before the winter break. Why would he wait until now?
