Chapter 256 I am angry
Unexpected Second Chance at Love
Stepping out of De Lâamour, Lu Tian and Zi Yifan arrived at an attached balcony. Stopping at the end, both men did not care about the many stares they were receiving.
Woman who were shopping and had stepped out for a little breather were mesmerize by the two men. How can god take such leisure time in sculpting these two people?
Oblivious to the women, Lu Tian takes out a cigarette and lit it. He inhales a puff and exhale it out. Looking at the view, he spoke without looking at Zi Yifan.
"What is it?"
Standing beside the man, Zi Yifan couldnât help but stare with envy. He isnât that bad looking, but why is it that Lu Tian is able to scoop his dream woman? He furrow his brows in thought, however, when he heard Lu Tianâs words.
His entire body slump and he sighed.
This is the reason. Lu Tianâs voice is deep and a bit husky. It was no wonder the man won his dream girlâs heart....
Well, either way, Yue Ling is just his dream girl. Her being his sister-in-law is better!
He takes a cigarette out and also light it up. Turning to look at the same view, he pats Lu Tian on the shoulder.
"Bro, I thought you were just kidding about having a girlfriend. However, now that Iâve seen it for myself, itâs no wonder you bragged about it."
Lu Tian eye Zi Yifan from the corner of his eyes, then back to view. A faint smile cross his lip as he felt truly bless to have Yue Ling in his wife. Before he met her, his life has been full of work only... But now, it is different. He has her and their child occupying his life.
Seeing the faint smile, Zi Yifanâs entire body froze and the cigarette in his hand dropped. In slow motion like a sloth, his eyes and mouth open widely in shock and amazement.
If it had been the old Lu Tian, without doubt the man would glare at him coldly, but.... but....
This new Lu Tian is too different...
Is this a good thing or a bad thing...?
Oblivious to Zi Yifanâs thoughts, Lu Tian kills the cigarette in his hand and lights another one.
"What is it that you want to talk about?"
Hearing this, Zi Yifan comes back from his mind blowing thoughts. He also lights another cigarette in replace of the one that dropped and his demeanor changes to serious.
"Itâs about....."
As both men chat outside the balcony, inside De Lâamour, Yue Ling is slowly taking her time looking at the clothes.
She didnât need to buy anything, but judging by the way Zi Yifan came unannounced, she is sure both men must have something to discuss.
Walking around the store, she sees a tan sweater and decides to buy it. She had told Lu Tian she wanted to look around, but if she didnât buy anything, it would be a waste of her excuse.
Reaching for it, a hand suddenly reaches out from the side at the same time. Both her hand and the hand holds onto ether sides of the sweater.
Yue Ling turn to the owner of the hand and she arch a brow in amusement.
Standing next to her was a woman with light brown hair. Sheâs tall, but not as tall as Yue Ling. One could tell that the way this woman dressed herself is very expensive. However, it wasnât the way she dressed that amused Yue Ling. It was the fact that she knew exactly who this woman is.
The woman turn her head to Yue Ling and a surprised look was written of her face. She let out a gasp and smiles to hide her surprised look.
"Oh, Iâm sorry. If you donât mind, I want this sweater."
Yue Ling did not say a word but looked at the woman then to the sweater in her hand. Thinking of something, she lets go of the sweater.
Itâs just a sweater and she could always find something else to buy. Without giving the woman another look, she turned around and walks away. However....
"Senior Han?"
A voice sounds from beside the woman. It was a voice Yue Ling is very familiar with. Her eye slowly blinked and her lip faintly curl upwards.
To think she would run into this girl... no, both of these two women.
Her faint smile disappears and she turns around to look at the two women. Indifference was written all over her face. Looking at the women holding the sweater, she didnât say a word but look to the other.
"Ning Mei."
Ning Mei sneer inside, but put on an innocent smile. She wrap her arm around the woman who wanted the tan sweater.
"Sister Ji, this is Han Yue Ling. We used to work together in the modeling industry until she quit, I mean retired."
Ji Chu Hua looks at Yue Ling and she smiles. She knows exactly who Yue Ling is, but she pretends to not know.
"I am Ji Chu Hua, itâs a pleasure to meet you, Yue Ling."
Yue Lingâs expression was still indifferent. She looks at Ji Chu Hua and shrug her shoulder.
"We are not that close for you to call me by my name. Miss Han is fine."
"..."
Both Ji Chu Hua and Ning Mei were dumbfounded. Who does Yue Ling think she is to speak to them this way? Only a mere model and she dares act this way like she is superior?!
Of course, Yue Ling didnt care about being polite to these two people standing in front of her. One is a scheming fox who dare to drug her and the other is the reason of Jingxuâs tortures in the past. So why should she give face to such people?!
Not wanting to stay and chat with the two people, Yue Ling didnt give them another look and turn to leave. However, before she could even take a step forward, Ning Mei grabs her arm.
"Senior Han, how can you talk to Sister Ji like that? I know you are angry at me, but donât..."
Ning Mei puts on a pitiful look and her eyes tear up.
"Please donât take it out on Sister Ji, she didnât do anything wrong."
"....."
Yue Ling looked at Ning Mei and she didnât know whether to laugh or cry. What in the world is this girl trying to pull this time? Her words donât even add up to the situation....
However, from the corner of her eyes, she could see the few people inside the store whispering in the distance. Seeing this, she arch a brow and realize that Ning Mei is trying to make a scene.
She lightly shove Ning Meiâs hand away and cross her arms over her chest. With an elegant smile plaster on her lip, she speaks.
"Oh, so tell me Ning Mei, what is it that I am angry about that I donât even know?"
Hearing the question, Ning Mei was tongue tied. She slight jumped in surprise that Yue Ling would say something like that. Even she doesnât know what excuse to answer Yue Ling.
Watching Ning Meiâs speechless look, Yue Ling scoff inside. She lift a hand and touch her chin like she is thinking.
"Or maybe I am angry....."
Her eyes locked with Ning Meiâs and she leans in closer to the shorter woman. In a whisper, she spoke in a cold and dangerous tone.
"Angry that SOMEONE tried to harm me."
"....."
Ning Meiâs face drained of all colors. Her eyes widen hearing Yue Lingâs words as doubt rose inside her entire body.
Does Yue Ling know that it was her who put the drug in the drink on the night of her retirement party?
No... that couldnât be, she made sure no one saw her. Thereâs...
As Ning Mei thought to herself, she did not realize that her expression had already given her away. Yue Ling straightened her posture and smiles knowing that her words had hit the bullseye.
In a caring tone, she speaks to Ning Mei, "Oh, Ning Mei, you donât look to well. Maybe you should ask your Sister Ji to send you to the hospital to check up."
Turning around, she takes step to leave, but before she could fully turn away, she shrug her shoulders.
"Of course, I would take you, but I am too ANGRY at the moment."
Without a care to see Ning Meiâs reaction, Yue Ling continues to walk away. She doesnât have time to deal with these two women.
When the time comes, she will make both of them pay for the things they did. As of right now, she has more important thing to do than watch Ning Meiâs stupid facade.
Of course by important, she means finding something to buy.
