Chapter 343 - President Steps In (2)
Mu Tingfeng"s eyes became austere. What he hated most now was when people brought up the matter of his divorce from Zhao Youlin. And this woman undoubtedly had a death wish.
Mighty Secretary Xia, who has been watching since he came out of the toilet after hearing the commotion, gave an incredibly sympathetic look to that woman.
After insulting the President"s son and trying to attack the President"s ex-wife, that woman had even stepped on a landmine. She was obviously committing suicide.
He had crossed so many bottom lines of President. One could only imagine that this woman"s life after this would…tsk tsk…
"It is true that we are divorced, but..." Mu Tingfeng paused a moment and let it hang for effect. As expected, after seeing the couple slightly heave a sigh of relief, he added with a sick sense of humor, "That was just to spice up our relations.h.i.+p. "
"Spice up your relations.h.i.+p?" The relaxed smile of the bald man with a fat body froze hard on his face.
"Pfff…" Su Qing was still holding the baby in her arms. When she heard Mu Tingfeng"s words, she could not help but directly spurt out a laugh.
"Hahahaha! What did Cousin Tingfeng just say? Spice up their relations.h.i.+p? He actually said the phrase spice up their relations.h.i.+p? I"m losing it. I"m really going to die from laughing! Is this still my cousin who has a poker face and does not know anything? Could he have been swapped by a doppelganger? No, that"s not the point. The point is that this guy actually said that his divorce with Youlin was just to spice up their relations.h.i.+p. Can you be any wilder, Cousin Tingfeng? I"m losing it. Hahaha!"
Su Qing laughed so hard that even her stomach hurt at the end. She was afraid that she would lose strength and drop her son to the ground. With her child still in her arms, she stepped closer into Song Yi"s embrace, letting him help support them.
What Su Qing said was undoubtedly what everyone was thinking about in their mind. Using divorce to spice up their relations.h.i.+p? No one had ever heard of it before! Was President Mu treating other people as idiots?
But the rules of this world were like this. The higher-ups wanted to coax them like they were fools, while they had to pretend to be a fool and listen to them attentively.
Just like now, even if what Mu Tingfeng said was really absurd and bizarre, even if it was really hard for them to believe it, but this sentence had come out of Mu Tingfeng"s mouth, so they could only believe it!
Mu Tingfeng coldly swept a glance at the man, who was an eyesore. He seemed to be very upset with his questioning, as he said in a cold manner, "That"s right. This was just to spice up the relations.h.i.+p between us. We have been married for four years. We were getting a little bored, so we thought of reliving the wedding."
Reliving the wedding? Did President Mu mean that the two of them divorced solely for the purpose of getting married again and having another wedding? Did that mean that...
Zhao Youlin nestled in Mu Tingfeng"s embrace, listening to Mu Tingfeng"s nonsense…while he had a calm look on his face. The corners of her mouth could not help but twitch.
In order not to let anyone see her strange reaction, she had to bury her face on top of her child"s shoulder, to hide the utterly speechless look on her face.
Darn in, this rascal still liked to do whatever he wanted. Joy was still here. How dare he announce this kind of thing in front of so many people!
The last time he said this, only Sun Fengzi and her husband were present. It was easy to deceive them, but there were so many people here. Was this rascal trying to use a fait accompli tactic, forcing her to say yes to him and marry him through these people, without having to go through Joy? In your dreams!
Mu Tingfeng was unaware that his charismatic statement had caused Zhao Youlin to bear a fresh grudge against him again. He swept his gaze across the faces of the people present. After he saw the faces of the crowd, who were looking at him and Zhao Youlin, were tinged with a little shock, and only then he spoke to confirm the suspicions in their hearts while shattering the last bit of hope of that couple.
"In a short while, my wife and I will have another wedding. We will inform everyone by then. I hope that you will be able to attend. But let"s put aside this matter for now, we can still talk about it later. Now..." Mu Tingfeng"s cold stare swept back and fixed on the couple again, whose faces were now pale and their bodies were covered with cold sweat. "Chairman Zhang, you seemed to be saying you want my wife to apologize to your wife just now?"
Who is your wife! When Zhao Youlin heard what Mu Tingfeng called her, her face darkened. And her hand, the one that was not holding Joy, just reached out to Mu Tingfeng"s waist and pinched it fiercely!
Mu Tingfeng felt the sharp pain coming from his waist. His eyebrows c.o.c.ked slightly. He grabbed Zhao Youlin"s aggressive hand in front of everyone and said in a resigned manner, "No playing now. We will talk when we go back later."
Who"s playing with you! Zhao Youlin became even angrier at these words, but she was also clear that now was not the best time to argue with Mu Tingfeng, so she only glared at him indignantly and did not move any further.
Zhao Youlin had only pinched him because she was angry and wanted to teach Mu Tingfeng a lesson, but she did not know that in the eyes of others, Zhao Youlin was angry because of what had just happened and was sulking with Mu Tingfeng.
Yet despite her tantrum, President still listened to her and went along with it. He let her do whatever she wanted, even the way he talked to her was full of a doting manner like he could not help it. It was simply impossible to believe that they did not truly love each other.
Zhao Youlin certainly did not know that her pinching, which she only did to vent her dissatisfaction, had actually confirmed the adulterous affair between her and Mu Tingfeng.
Su Qing covered her eyes spontaneously when she saw that scene. She wailed and said, "I can"t take it anymore. I can"t take it anymore. This public display of affection is truly blinding people"s eyes. Why haven"t I noticed before you"re actually a sultry type, Cousin Tingfeng? I really misjudged you!"
It was a good thing that Su Qing"s voice was low. Mu Tingfeng and Zhao Youlin were standing far away from her, so they did not hear any of it. Otherwise, the expression on their faces might have gotten really interesting.
Compared to Su Qing"s side, which was full of a happy atmosphere and wild imaginations, the couple whose confidence was shattered after they were scared by Mu Tingfeng"s question, looked at the interaction between Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng, their faces became even more grim.
The reason why this vicious woman had dared to be so condescending and commanding before Zhao Youlin just now was because she believed that Zhao Youlin had been abandoned and disliked by Mu Tingfeng. So even if she bullied her, Mu Tingfeng would not come after her for what she did for her.
But now, reality had slapped her hard in the face. Mu Tingfeng not only did not dislike Zhao Youlin and abandoned her, on the contrary, he still liked her a lot and doted on her very much. He was pampering this woman, who he had divorced long ago, like a woman he truly loved.
Although her husband was the chairman of a company, it was just a small and little-known company. If put into comparison with Mu Tingfeng"s company, the gap between them was as great as the distance between heaven and earth, clouds and muds.
And the reason she was able to go around offending people without any fear, without any worry that people would get back at her, was entirely because her younger sister had been lucky enough to be married to a big shot.
And this big shot, her brother-in-law, was the mayor of Shalnork.
Because of this relations.h.i.+p, everyone in the upper-cla.s.s society had to show her a little respect. Even if she really did something that went out of line, no one would dare to say a word.. However, Mu Tingfeng and the four most powerful families were not included.
