Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Chapter 613 - Minor Friction (1)



Chapter 613: Minor Friction (1)

Despite the fact that the outlet was under Mu Tingfeng’s ownership, Zhao Youlin did not like to simply take advantage of others. As such, Zhao Youlin insisted on not signing the contract from the beginning.

Mu Tingfeng naturally refused to compromise her. He said in a manner that made it sound like a simple issue, “Yours is mine, and mine is yours”. And with that, he successfully made Zhao Youlin accept the outlet.

Zhao Youlin was rendered speechless when she looked at Mu Tingfeng’s matter-of-factly demeanor. She did not know whether she should laugh or cry as she accepted the outlet that was worth a significant amount of money.

No matter what, the outlet issue was settled in the midst of their lovey-dovey conversation. The staff at the pastry outlet was very happy when they learned that their shop was about to expand. This was especially so when Zhao Youlin promised to give them ten days off during the outlet renovation period. On top of that… it was a paid leave!

Zhao Youlin enlisted the help of An Qi to take note of the pastry outlet issue. As such, the fact that Mu Tingfeng was the true owner of the two outlets was no longer hidden from her.

An Qi was a cool and stoic person. When she learned of this issue, she merely gave the couple a sly look and did not ask them any questions.

However, speaking of which, Zhao Youlin was more concerned about another issue.

“An Qi, did Nie Yunfan come over and look for you recently?”

“Mr. Nie?”

Ever since Nie Yunfan had coincidentally saved An Qi and An Yue from Xie Yuqing, An Qi no longer had a very poor impression of Nie Yunfan like she had of him in the beginning.

However, An Qi reacted slowly in certain areas. Therefore, she was puzzled upon facing Zhao Youlin’s question. “Why does he have to come here? Yue Yue has already moved over to Yichen’s place. Even if Mr. Nie wants to look for them, he couldn’t possibly come over here, right?”

Zhao Youlin fell speechless.

An Qi frowned as she was saying this. She seemed like she was pondering over something. “However, speaking of which, I used to bump into Mr. Nie several times before whenever I went out.”

“Run into Nie Yunfan? Where?”

An Qi gave a puzzled look at Zhao Youlin. She thought it strange as to why Zhao Youlin would ask her this type of question. Still, An Qi answered Zhao Youlin truthfully, “At the supermarket, on the way to work, and sometimes at the wet market as well…”

When An Qi was saying this, she mumbled to herself, “Generally speaking, would young masters from great families appear in places like this? It’s okay if I ran into him on the way from work. However, as for supermarkets and wet markets… Urm… I think it’s weird for Mr. Nie to go to the wet market. Would you normally go to the wet market to buy ingredients on your own?”

Zhao Youlin smiled embarrassedly, “I’ve never been there before because of my working hours. I usually get back from work very late. By the time I buy the ingredients and prepare the meal, I suppose my family has already starved to death.”

‘Nie Yunfan does not go there to buy ingredients. Obviously, he goes there to court An Qi! Besides, judging by An Qi’s look, it’s clear that she hasn’t noticed it at all.’ As a result, Zhao Youlin did not know how to voice out her thoughts which she had prepared earlier.

What would happen if she said something incorrectly? Instead of reminding An Qi to be cautious of him, she may, in turn, jolt An Qi out of her stupor. And she would have undoubtedly done Nie Yunfan a favor. This could even save Nie Yunfan from confessing to An Qi. If that happened, she would certainly regret herself.

Speaking of Nie Yunfan, was he not notoriously known for his flirtatious behavior? Why, after all this time, had he still not courted An Qi? Instead, he was acting like a stalker, frequently following her. As such, Zhao Youlin thought that Nie Yunfan actually… sucked.

Did An Qi really have to be wary of this kind of person?

At the same time, inside one of the gorgeous apartment units far away in the outskirts of the city, Young Master of the Nie family, who had been rushing work overnight, had just woken up from his bed and felt a sense of chill down his spine. His body unwittingly shivered.

“That’s weird. It’s not winter yet. Why do I suddenly feel so cold? Could it be that my uncle is nagging me?” Nie Yunfan wrapped his hand around his chest and rubbed his arms, which were covered in goosebumps. “Well, forget about it. I should go see which way An Qi is going to go home today. Then, I would have a pleasant encounter with her. Next, I would ask her out for dinner, and we… Hehehe!”

Nie Yunfan was enthralled by his own fantasy. He happily slipped into his slippers and went to the shower room.

An Qi, on the other hand, had no idea about Zhao Youlin’s dilemma at that moment. She stroked her chin and looked like she was deep in thought. “That’s how it is…”

When Zhao Youlin saw this, she faked a cough and gave a faint smile, “A-A-Actually, it might not necessarily be so. Some people are not used to eating outside food, or they could be picky eaters and dislike eating food prepared by others. As such, they prefer to buy ingredients and prepare on their own.”

It was only then when An Qi came to an understanding. She gave a nod and said, “Makes sense.”

Zhao Youlin breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at An Qi’s mentally retarded appearance while silently praying for Nie Yunfan.

This time, Zhao Yifei’s injury was more severe compared to the last two times when Zhao Youlin had beaten him up. As a result, it was unlikely for him to return to Zhao Enterprise in a short period of time.

Zhao Youlin was a little disappointed that Zhao Yifei was not able to persevere to annoy Zhao Youming. At the same time, she was not in the mood to be bothered about Zhao Youming. This was because… Su He and Ye Yan’s wedding was just around the corner.

Based on Ye Yan and Su He’s current situation, their wedding was considered a marriage that occurred shortly after they met. Although they were acquainted with each other in the past, they had only confirmed their relationship in the last two months. Besides, Su He was already six months pregnant!

Originally, Zhao Youlin thought that his wedding with Mu Tingfeng was strange enough. Never had she thought that others were even more outrageous than theirs, or to put it in another way, more aggressive than they were. Ye Yan and Su He’s relationship was taking several steps back.

Su He naturally invited An Yue and Han Yichen because of Zhao Youlin.

Half a month before the wedding, Zhao Youlin had received Su He’s call. She had asked Zhao Youlin and Li to go over to his place so that they could give some opinions about her wedding gowns on her wedding day, as well as had them try on some bridesmaids’ gowns.

Although Su He was the young lady of the Su family, she had been kept inside the house from her childhood. Even when she studied abroad, she had been closely protected. Basically, she did not have any friends. As such, Su Qing, Zhao Youlin and Li were the natural choices for her bridesmaids…

Today, Zhao Youlin had made an appointment with An Yue and was preparing to take Li to the Su family’s villa to try on the gowns. Little did she know that the moment she stepped out of Zhao Enterprise, she would run into her nemesis.

“Youlin, why are you going out in such a hurry? Where are you rushing to?” Zhao Youlin was greeted by the sight of Zhao Youming’s grinning face.

Zhao Youlin paused mid-stride. “I need to go out for some business. Chief Zhao, why are you here? Did you just arrive or…”

Zhao Youlin smiled faintly. “I just sent off an important client.”

“Oh?” Zhao Youlin raised one of her eyebrows and said teasingly, “Chief Zhao, he must be a VIP for you to personally humble yourself and send him off.”

Zhao Youming’s expression changed slightly.. Just when he was about to say something, he heard an abrupt scream from behind, “Youlin…”
