Chapter 469: Third Uncle
Translator: VinceStar Editor: PrisMiko
“Are you still watching TV?” Yang Ming picked up the TV remote control and turned on the TV.
” Ah… Oh… Ugh. ..” There was a deafening roar from the TV…
Lin Zhiyun’s face which had returned to normal turned red right away again. She glared at Yang Ming, “You did that deliberately?”
” Ah ? I didn’t…” Yang Ming quickly shook his head and denied it.
In fact, Yang Ming was really not intentional. Yang Ming was afraid that Lin Zhiyun would be awkward, so he wanted to adjust the atmosphere. Didn’t she like to watch the cartoon called “Sponge Bob Square Pants” [1]? Then let’s watch that for a while longer!
Yang Ming just forgot the channel that was set before that. It’s this show. .. Yang Ming broke into a sweat…
“Switch it off! You still want to watch it?” Lin Zhiyun saw Yang Ming stupidly holding the remote control and didn’t intend to turn off. So, she yelled at him.
Yang Ming heard Lin Zhiyun’s words and laughed a while. He began to change channels. It took a while to find a normal Taiwanese TV station. It was playing a very popular TV series “Love Stories in the Country Side” [2]. It was the moment where the actor, Li Daguo, pretended to be a ghost. His voice scared Lin Zhiyun.
“I say, Yang Ming, aren’t you doing it deliberately? How did you find such a channel…” Lin Zhiyun was scared by Li Daguo.
“What does this have to do with me…” Yang Ming had no choice. “I have no predictive ability…”
As he said this, Yang Ming wanted to change the channel.
“Don’t change it. Let’s just watch this. It’s very interesting…” Lin Zhiyun stopped him.
Yang Ming shook his head. A woman’s heart can never be understood. A moment later and she changed her mind again? Yang Ming sat next to Lin Zhiyun and watched TV with her.
Time quickly reached 9 p.m. and it was the time to sleep.
“Yang Ming…” Lin Zhiyun was a little sleepy, but she didn’t know what to say. There was just one bed. If two people slept together, it was a bit… Although Lin Zhiyun’s innermost feelings felt nothing, she couldn’t quite get it off her chest.
Yang Ming felt funny looking at Lin Zhiyun who was yawning again and again. He knew what she wanted to say.
“Sleepy? Let’s rest early. You can sleep first. I can sleep on the sofa.” Yang Ming pointed to a dilapidated single sofa in the room.
” Ah ?” Lin Zhiyun thought that this was the best solution, but when she saw the narrow and dilapidated sofa she felt somewhat reluctant. Yang Ming is helping my father to do things, but I’m letting him sleep on the sofa. No matter what this isn’t right… But to let him sleep on the bed with her, she couldn’t say it either. So, she had to say, “Why don’t I sleep on the sofa…”
“Forget it.” Yang Ming shook his head. “You are my girlfriend. How can I let you sleep on the sofa?”
Girlfriend ? Lin Zhiyun couldn’t help but feel a little dizzy when listening to such sensitive words. It would be good if I was your girlfriend, then there would be no need to sleep on the sofa… Lin Zhiyun shook her head and didn’t know if Yang Ming was joking or not.
Lin Zhiyun felt that Yang Ming seemed to be making their act real. Otherwise, who would help a fake girlfriend at home to deal with such troublesome things?
But it was impossible. Yang Ming’s girlfriend was a girl named Chen Mengyan. Lin Zhiyun had inquired through Ge Xinyao during this period. Lin Zhiyun saw her from far away before… She was a very beautiful girl. Very youthful, very cheerful, like a little princess.
Although Lin Zhiyun thought that she wasn’t more beautiful than Chen Mengyan, they should be at least similar, right? But even if it was about the same, Lin Zhiyun lost her confidence. Yang Ming couldn’t possibly like me. Lin Zhiyun kept hinting at herself to prevent herself from doing stupid things.
“Then… I’ll go to sleep?” Lin Zhiyun asked.
” En , you should sleep first. Let me go out and smoke a cigarette…” Yang Ming said.
“Okay, you rest early, too.” Lin Zhiyun nodded and went to bed.
Yang Ming walked out of the room and closed the door. He lit a cigarette in the hallway. After going to university, Yang Ming had also smoked fewer cigarettes. If it wasn’t something troublesome, Yang Ming wouldn’t smoke.
When it came to troubles, Yang Ming wasn’t thinking about Mei Renyi, but about Lin Zhiyun.
What’s Mei Renyi to me? If I can’t find him, it won’t be a big deal, just pay some money. It’s just the matter with Lin Zhiyun. It’s a little troublesome. Now, Yang Ming clearly felt that his relations.h.i.+p with Lin Zhiyun had been closer, especially because of the TV program and the trip together. Yang Ming could also feel that Lin Zhiyun had gradually become attached to him.
The original Lin Zhiyun wouldn’t have called Yang Ming even if she had b.u.mped into problems. Now, the first person who came into Lin Zhiyun’s mind when she got into trouble was Yang Ming. Although Yang Ming was happy to see that their relations.h.i.+p was good, another problem came. The relations.h.i.+p with Lin Zhiyun is improving. What about Chen Mengyan?
It seemed that although Chen Mengyan knew of the existence of Lin Zhiyun, she would never think that Yang Ming would bring the girl back. The reason why Chen Mengyan acquiesced to Lan Ling was that Lan Ling wasn’t at his side; she was still far away.
If I really bring Lin Zhiyun to the forefront, I really don’t know what would happen! Lin Zhiyun isn’t like Lan Ling. Lin Zhiyun is also a student of Song Jiang Industry University, and it’s possible for Chen Mengyan to meet her at any time!
According to Chen Mengyan’s character, it was still fine if she was throwing a tantrum. He was just afraid that she would do something extreme.
As he thought of this, Yang Ming had a headache. While he was still troubled by it, Yang Ming’s phone suddenly rang. Originally, he thought it was Hou Zhenhan, but he didn’t expect Sun Jie to call.
“h.e.l.lo, Sun Jie, are you missing me again?” His troubles were heart-wrenching, but Yang Ming was still able to flirt happily with a beautiful girl.
“You’re in Donghai now?” Sun Jie didn’t continue the conversation, but she directly asked, “How is it now?”
“It’s not very smooth. I’ll explain to you when I get back. Is there anything wrong?” Yang Ming still didn’t want to trouble Sun Jie unless it was absolutely necessary. Although the relations.h.i.+p between the two was very special, it was precisely because of this special relations.h.i.+p that made Yang Ming feel like a kept man.
“One of my men said that he heard some news about the person you are looking for.” Sun Jie said, “When are you going to meet him?”
“What? Found him? So fast?” Yang Ming was shocked and elated. The news of Wu Chiren was really too important for him.
“He hasn’t found the person yet. He got some news. I don’t know the specifics. Let me give you the phone number of that person and you can contact him!” said Sun Jie.
“Okay, tell me…” Yang Ming felt that his hands were a little trembling. He was very emotional…
“His phone number is x.x.xx.x.x…” Sun Jie said, “You can call him Uncle Sun or Third Uncle. Just say that you’re my friend.”
“Uncle Sun? Could he be a relative of your family?” Yang Ming was stunned.
“It’s my old housekeeper. He’s very good to me. Don’t worry…” Sun Jie smiled and said, “He is almost fifty years old. You won’t lose anything by calling him an uncle!”
“Okay, I understand.” Yang Ming said, “Thank you, Sun Jie.”
“Didn’t you say it? Why would we need to thank each other with the relations.h.i.+p we have?” Sun Jie didn’t forget to tease Yang Ming.
” Hehe , is that so? Well, then when will we go to the bathroom at the Nightless Club again?” Yang Ming laughed.
“Next time? No next time! Even if there is, not in that kind of place…” Sun Jie hung up the phone with a smile.
This made Yang Ming feel overwhelmed. What did Sun Jie mean? Was she implying something?
But this chick… Yang Ming shook his head, Sun Jie’s character was so weird. She didn’t even limit herself when joking with me. Didn’t she know that this could easily cause a misunderstanding?
In fact, Yang Ming misunderstood. Sun Jie was joking with him. If it was with other people, even smiling was difficult for her, let alone joking.
Yang Ming dialed the phone number Sun Jie gave him to contact Uncle Sun. The phone was connected before it even rang twice.
“h.e.l.lo? Who are you looking for?” There was a deep voice on the other end, asking things directly.
“Is this Uncle Sun?” Yang Ming asked.
” En ? I am… May I ask who are you?” Sun San was stunned. In recent years, there were not many people who called him Uncle Sun. Other than Sun Jie, it was only Sun Zhiwei.
The Sun Family had two brothers. One was Sun Jie’s father, Sun Hongjun. The other was Sun Zhiwei’s father, Sun Qingjun. Sun San wasn’t called Sun San originally, but because he was the Sun Family’s butler, he changed his name to Sun San. It meant that he was third in rank.
Although Sun San was a butler, Sun Hongjun valued him very much. Sun San didn’t get married for the rest of his life as he was busy with the matters of the Sun Family. Therefore, Sun Jie and Sun Zhiwei respected him.
