Chapter 125 - Parents Visit (2)
Everyone could see what was going on that day, and Zhao Youlin seemed to have the upper hand over Zhao Yifei and Sun Fengzi. In the end, she had even sent a flying kick at Zhao Yifei.
And it was said that because of the kick, Zhao Yifei still could not move his arm.
But in Duan Yarong"s heart, Zhao Youlin was just a regular girl, and when boys and girls fought, girls were always at a disadvantage. Plus, it was a group fight, and it was difficult to fight that many people on your own.
It was fortunate that Zhao Youlin was able to end the fight, but who knows if she would be as lucky the next time?
Duan Yarong did not chastise Zhao Youlin for not respecting Zhao Shunchang and his family; instead, she was concerned about her safety. Zhao Shunrong did not say anything, but she could tell that he agreed.
It appeared that her reflexive defense of Duan Yarong yesterday had unexpectedly helped her earn a few brownie points with this man. No wonder when she saw this man today, his att.i.tude had completely changed compared to yesterday.
Seeing Duan Yarong get so worried about her made Zhao Youlin feel a small burst of warmth in her heart.
She really wanted to say that she didn"t even take the three people who mobbed her seriously, but when she looked at the worried Duan Yarong, she could only respond with, "Mhm, Okay."
Duan Yarong exhaled in relief. However, Zhao Youlin was a little curious so she asked, "Since Uncle Zhao had explained the whole story, then did Grandfather-"
Duan Yarong let out a sigh and said, "Of course, the old master was enraged by Sun Fengzi"s outrageous behavior. The old master was against it when Shunchang had decided to marry Sun Fengzi. If it hadn"t been for…"
Zhao Youlin"s eyes twinkled when she heard Duan Yarong mention that. It appears that the rumor about Sun Fengzi and Zhao Shunchang"s shotgun wedding was mostly true.
"Sun Fengzi had a sheltered upbringing. Never would she submit to others, and from the day I was married into the Zhao Family, our relations.h.i.+p was not one of the best, because she believed that I one-upped her. And despite the fact that I had been in the Zhao Family for many years, I had no children. So, she took the chance to display her contempt for me, especially after she had a son because she still thinks I"m taking up her place!"
Zhao Youlin"s brows furrowed as she heard the words. She then took Duan Yarong"s hand in hers and said, "People with common sense would be able to tell if you had truly taken her position, so there"s no need to get angry at that ridiculous woman. And speaking of having no children, am I not your daughter? And I"m pretty sure her son isn"t exactly a decent person either; look at how rude he is to his parents; in this case, it"s probably best if they didn"t have one."
Duan Yarong felt more relieved after being placated by Zhao Youlin. Despite the fact that this girl was not her own, she was far better compared to other people"s own children.
She suddenly thought of Zhao Shuncheng and Zhao Shunrong"s children, and Duan Yarong felt her head hurt just thinking about them.
But, most importantly, she currently not only had a daughter, but also a lovely little grandson.
Considering that, Duan Yarong"s mood lifted slightly, then she said, "Sun Fengzi"s birth family was not a good bunch either. She was bossy when she first joined the Zhao family, but she hadn"t done anything particularly out of the line since then, so the old master had simply turned a blind eye towards the situation. But who knew that helped boost her ego and led her to go overboard? Right now, she doesn"t just walk around with Shunchang backing her up, she also speaks ill about me and the old master behind our backs. But most importantly, she went as far as to touch you…"
Zhao Youlin could sense Duan Yarong"s rage building up, and she knew Duan Yarong was enraged on her behalf. Her grin grew wider while she said lowly, "Mom, don"t be angry, they"re not worth your rage. I"ll just go around them the next time I see them. I won"t let them get to me."
Only then did Duan Yarong"s expression turn for the better. So, Zhao Youlin went along and asked, "So, what was Grandfather"s reaction after listening to the story? What about them-"
"Don"t worry, the old man was very angry after hearing the explanation from Uncle Zhao yesterday, so he ordered them to leave the main residence. Especially Sun Fengzi, so don"t worry about meeting them. Speaking of which, when are you moving back, Youlin?"
Zhao Youlin knew that Sun Fengzi and Zhao Yifei were the daughter in law and grandson of the old man, and it was reasonable that he could not really do anything about them. At most, he could give them the cold shoulder for a while and, like Zhao Shuncheng, make them mere figureheads and bar them from actually approaching the Zhao Family"s properties.
She believed the old man was being too kind to them, but she kept quiet about it. However, Duan Yarong"s last question had left her dumbfounded. When should she move back to the Zhao Family?
Without waiting for Zhao Youlin to react, Joy had already peered up from Duan Yarong"s embrace and looked at her confused, and he cutely asked, "Are we going to move again Mommy?"
Upon hearing Joy"s question, Duan Yarong chuckled and said, "Yes! Does Joy want to move in and live with Grandma? That way, you can see Grandma everyday now."
Joy was dazed for a while. He was biting his finger and after some time of thinking, he finally asked, full of antic.i.p.ation, "After moving there, can I still have the tasty pastry and m.u.f.fins every day?"
Duan Yarong was caught off guard, but when she came back to her senses, she could not help but to laugh out loud. She grabbed Joy"s little face and peppered it with kisses. Even the solemn Zhao Shunrong"s frigid eyes slightly glowed with mirth.
"Oh, my little baby, how can you be so adorable? Hahaha, alright alright, Grandma promises that once you move in to live with Grandma, I will tell the kitchen to prepare delicious pastry and m.u.f.fins every day."
Although Joy was not sure why Duan Yarong was laughing, but upon hearing that he could have m.u.f.fins made for him every day, his eyes sparkled and he yelled, "Yes yes! I want to move in with Grandma and eat lots and lots of m.u.f.fins! Pinky promise, Grandma."
Duan Yarong could not help giving Joy another smooch after seeing him become so adorably focused and excited about food. She reached out to return the pinky promise, she then turned around to face Zhao Youlin, and questioned again, "What do you think, Youlin?"
"Well, a certain greedy kitten has already run away, so I suppose I should follow it, don"t I?" Zhao Youlin said amused. Zhao Youlin playfully pinched her son"s chubby cheeks, and thought, "Oh, my son, you have really sold yourself for food!"
Duan Yarong was overjoyed, and she remarked with a smile, "You can move in, in two days. Let your dad a.s.sist you with it."
Zhao Youlin cast a peek across to find a serious looking Zhao Shunrong seated next to Duan Yarong, and she couldn"t help but smile at the thought of this highly regarded president helping her to move, "Hmm, okay."
After talking about Zhao Youlin"s relocation, Zhao Shunrong eventually spoke up and asked, "I"ve heard from the old man that you were thinking of opening your own shop?"
