Chapter 726: Confrontation
Cheng Che did not say anything.
Upon seeing this, Yin Yi smiled smugly. She felt the time was right now so she lowered her voice and asked, “Brother, is Brother Mu Chen on good terms with his wife?”
Cheng Che frowned and nodded immediately. “Yes.”
A disappointed expression appeared on Yin Yi’s face immediately. She wrinkled her nose and said, “Really? The rumors said that their marriage is quite complicated.”
Cheng Che’s frown deepened. “Brother Chen and sister-in-law are very loving.”
Yin Yi no longer said anything as she spun the chair again.
At this moment, realization dawned on Cheng Che, and he looked at Yin Yi in disbelief.
Yin Yi was not embarra.s.sed. Instead, she said bluntly, “Brother, I like Mu Chen.”
Cheng Che’s expression darkened immediately. “I’ve already told you that Brother Chen and sister-in-law are very loving.”
Yin Yi did not care. “So what? I like him. I have to at least give it a try, right? If I don’t give it a try, how do I know if their relations.h.i.+p is really good or not?”
Cheng Che looked at Yin Yi in shock. His gaze was piercing as though it could poke holes in her.
Yin Yi shrugged and said, “Alright, Brother. This is my matter. You don’t have to worry about it.”
Cheng Che said seriously, “Yin Yi, it’s best if you dismiss your improper thoughts. If liking someone means interfering with their family, it’s immoral. Moreover, you’re talking about my sister-in-law’s marriage. Your behavior is really annoying.”
Yin Yi smiled and said placatingly, “Alright, Brother. I understand. You’re really a good person.”
At this moment, Xiao An knocked on the door and came. Then, he said, “Young Master Cheng, Miss Guan Tang is here.”
When Cheng Che met Xiao An’s gaze, Xiao An nodded imperceptibly.
...
Yin Yin smiled and said, “Brother, Cousin came to look for you!” Then, she turned to Xiao An and said, “Hurry up and bring my cousin here.”
As soon as Guan Tang walked in, she grabbed Yin Yi’s hand and said anxiously, “What are you doing here? Aunty is worried sick.” Then, she said to Cheng Che apologetically, “Sister didn’t cause you any trouble, right? She’s young and immature so don’t take it to heart. Aunty is worried that she’ll cause you trouble.”
Cheng Che did not say anything.
Yin Yi patted Guan Tang’s hand and said, “Cousin, what are you saying? What kind of person do you think I am? I’m not a child. I was pa.s.sing by so I came to visit Brother. Why are you so anxious?” Then, she turned to Cheng Che and lifted her chin slightly as she said proudly, “Oh, right. Brother, Cousin is your fiancee. Grandpa has already said that he’ll only recognize her as his granddaughter-in-law.”
Guan Tang patted Yin Yi’s hand and scolded her gently, “Enough. Don’t talk anymore.”
Yin Yi listened to Guan Tang.
Before Guan Tang could speak again, the office door suddenly opened and Jiahui’s crisp voice rang in the air.
“Cheng Che, can we go now?”
Guan Tang could not help but tremble. Her face turned pale as she looked at Jiahui as though she had seen a ghost.
Cheng Che walked over and held Jiahui’s hand very naturally before he gently kissed her forehead. “I’m almost done.”
Seeing Guan Tang and Yin Yi, Jiahui was also very surprised. She held Cheng Che’s hand and said coquettishly, “Oh, you’re here as well. What a coincidence. Did both of you come to look for Cheng Che?”
Yin Yi blurted out, “Weren’t you missing? Where did you come from?”
Guan Tang’s expression changed, and her legs weakened.
Jiahui chuckled and said, “I escaped on my own. Speaking of which, I really had a tough time.” Then, she stepped forward and held Guan Tang’s arm before she said with a sweet smile on her face, “Miss Guan, how have you been? Did you come to see my boyfriend? How is it? Is he interested in you?”
