Chapter 1047: After the Embarra.s.sment, There Was Still Embarra.s.sment

Therefore, Lin Zhiyun was particularly familiar with this car. She even remembered the license plate number.
She could lend the car to Yang Ming, and she didn’t blame Yang Ming for cras.h.i.+ng the car like that. This meant she had a very close relations.h.i.+p with Yang Ming, not to mention the fact that they had met before Valentine’s Day. This could reveal more about the problem.
However, Lin Zhiyun was not the kind of woman who liked gossip, so even if she saw Sun Jie appearing in front of her, Lin Zhiyun didn’t feel anything. Instead, she envied Sun Jie’s elegance and dignity. She could reveal her charm and s.e.xiness when talking to Yang Ming.
When Lin Zhiyun was in the company during this time, she would go online if she was free. She would browse some forums or message boards. She once saw a post saying that men liked this kind woman who had two characters. On the outside, she was a n.o.blewoman; at home, she was a s.l.u.t… and Sun Jie clearly met this requirement…
This was a fickle woman, but Lin Zhiyun didn’t envy her; she admired Sun Jie instead.
Of course, the biggest reason Lin Zhiyun had a good impression of Sun Jie was that although this woman was very good, she was not overbearing. She met Lin Zhiyun together with Yang Ming twice, but she didn’t request anything.
In fact, Lin Zhiyun misunderstood Sun Jie. How could Sun Jie not be overbearing? It was just that she wasn’t sure that she would stay with Yang Ming in the future. If she were determined, she probably only needed a small strategy, and then she could drive Lin Zhiyun away from Yang Ming.
However, it might be effective for others, but it wasn’t possible for Yang Ming. Yang Ming wouldn’t give up a woman because of another woman under any circ.u.mstances.
If Sun Jie knew about the conflicts between Yang Ming and Chen Mengyan because of Lan Ling’s matters, she wouldn’t have similar ideas.
“Yang Ming, would you like to accompany them?” When Lin Zhiyun saw Sun Jie and Xiao Qing going far away, she whispered to Yang Ming, “Every time you meet them, you didn’t bother with them. It is not good, right?”
” Ugh … It’s fine. Didn’t I say that I will go to Sister Xiao Qing tonight?” said Yang Ming awkwardly. He didn’t expect Lin Zhiyun’s thoughts to be so exquisite. Her thought was so considerate.
“I am not talking about Sister Xiao Qing, but Sister Sun.” Lin Zhiyun shook her head and said, “She is your girlfriend, right?”
” Ugh …” Yang Ming suddenly felt awkward. He didn’t expect Lin Zhiyun to be able to notice it, but it was no wonder. Xiao Qing had to draw a clear distinction with him in front of others to avoid any gossip; Sun Jie was different. She didn’t care about anything at all, and her father even agreed on their relations.h.i.+p. Sun Jie didn’t have to avoid anything, so she couldn’t help but reveal some distinctive tone. Maybe she didn’t notice it, but Lin Zhiyun was able to.
“Sister Jiajia and I will not talk about it…” Lin Zhiyun was afraid that Yang Ming would worry, so she added another sentence.
“Zhiyun, I don’t mean that…” Yang Ming shook his head and smiled. “I will find another time to accompany her, but now, the main purpose is to accompany you. Just like when I am with her, you will not ask me to accompany you, right?”
After listening to Yang Ming’s words, Lin Zhiyun thought so too. Therefore, she didn’t insist and entered the hot pot restaurant with Yang Ming.
Sun Jie and Xiao Qing probably had a reservation. They directly went to the private room on the second floor, but it wasn’t surprising. Although the Sun Family’s power was based in Donghai, Sun Jie’s ident.i.ty between Bao Sanli and others could be seen. Therefore, Sun Jie became famous in Song Jiang too. She was even stronger than Yang Ming’s connections and network.
After all, Yang Ming’s current ident.i.ty was only known to a small group of people. It was not as open as Sun Jie. The original status of Sun Jie, coupled with the respect of Bao Sanli and Hou Zhenhan, had allowed Sun Jie to raise her business position in Song Jiang. Therefore, like what had happened, booking a private room was just a small matter.
Yang Ming did not use these connections because there was no need for it. Yang Ming was still a student, and he didn’t want to attract too much attention from others.
After they chose a good location, they ordered a table of hot pot ingredients and began to eat. The ingredients in the hot pot were all prepared, so they didn’t need to wait. After the ingredients were served, they could just eat directly.
When they just sat down, Yang Ming wanted to call the waiter to order drinks, but he was shocked when he looked up! w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was holding Zhao Ying’s hand walking into the hot pot restaurant!
Yang Ming suddenly broke into a sweat. What happened today? Am I having bad luck today? First, it is Xiao Qing and Sun Jie; this time, it is Zhao Ying and w.a.n.g Xiaoyan. Why are they all here?
It’s just Lan Ling and Chen Mengyan who aren’t here!
Zhao Ying and w.a.n.g Xiaoyan apparently saw Yang Ming sitting in the hot pot restaurant. w.a.n.g Xiaoyan felt nothing, but Zhao Ying’s expression was gloomy. Today, when w.a.n.g Xiaoyan came to her, Zhao Ying originally wanted to refuse. However, she couldn’t refuse w.a.n.g Xiaoyan because w.a.n.g Xiaoyan made a call and personally came to look for her. Zhao Ying hesitated. Although she thought that even if Yang Ming and w.a.n.g Xiaoyan were together, this matter wouldn’t affect the friends.h.i.+p between w.a.n.g Xiaoyan and herself. If not, she would seem too stingy.
Yang Ming had the right to choose who he wanted to be with, and Yang Ming chose w.a.n.g Xiaoyan instead of her. This also proved that she had more shortcomings than w.a.n.g Xiaoyan, so Zhao Ying didn’t need to vent her anger on w.a.n.g Xiaoyan.
Both w.a.n.g Xiaoyan and Zhao Ying liked to eat spicy flavors, but both of them had eaten at the Sichuan restaurant with Yang Ming before, so today they went to a special flavored hot pot that just opened.
“Isn’t that Yang Ming!?” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan blinked in the direction of Yang Ming and asked Zhao Ying. She did not know that Zhao Ying had already known about her and Yang Ming, so she did not evade anything.
” En …” Zhao Ying nodded faintly. There wasn’t a tiny bit of joy in her expression.
“Sister Zhao Ying, what happened to you?” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan suddenly found that Zhao Ying’s mood was not quite right, so she asked quickly.
“Nothing. Let’s go. I don’t want to eat at this restaurant.” Zhao Ying shook her head and answered.
” Ah ?” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was somewhat inexplicable. She didn’t know what happened to Zhao Ying. “Sister Ying, why not eat here? Didn’t we have an agreement?”
“I… I suddenly lost my appet.i.te…” sighed Zhao Ying. “Let’s change to another restaurant.”
Zhao Ying was afraid to see Yang Ming because she didn’t know what to say. That night, her courage to insist on waiting until dawn was long gone. Especially, now that she was with w.a.n.g Xiaoyan, if she met Yang Ming, she would feel very awkward. She felt like she was the third wheel. She would feel uncomfortable.
“You… Is it because of Yang Ming?” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was also very savvy. She thought about the changes in Zhao Ying before and after seeing Yang Ming. She understood something.
“Me… Of course not!” Zhao Ying wouldn’t admit it.
“Yang Ming has already seen us. Let’s go and say h.e.l.lo before leaving. Otherwise, it will be rude.” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan smiled and looked at Zhao Ying.
” Ah …” Zhao Ying was stunned. She didn’t expect w.a.n.g Xiaoyan would force her like this. She didn’t want to eat here because she was afraid to see Yang Ming. What was the difference between greeting Yang Ming and eating here then?
“Sister Ying, is there anything unpleasant between you and Yang Ming?” Seeing Zhao Ying’s expression, how could w.a.n.g Xiaoyan still not notice anything?
“No… no!” Zhao Ying naturally wouldn’t admit it. She quickly shook her head.
“Really no?” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan looked at Zhao Ying’s fl.u.s.tered eyes and shook her head helplessly, “Sister Ying, you don’t have to lie to me. Your eyes tell me that there must be something.”
w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was also an a.s.sa.s.sin, so her observation of people was naturally very strong. Although it wasn’t as powerful as Yang Ming, it was more than enough for ordinary people, so she suddenly felt something was wrong with Zhao Ying.
“I…” Zhao Ying didn’t know what to say. She did want to find someone to talk about it, but this person couldn’t be w.a.n.g Xiaoyan, because w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was the character in the story that she wanted to talk about.
“Yanyan, can you please not ask?” Zhao Ying was in a bind. She didn’t want to say it. If she told the truth, her friends.h.i.+p with w.a.n.g Xiaoyan would definitely be affected. At least, she thought so.
If she and w.a.n.g Xiaoyan were both Yang Ming’s women, then there was nothing wrong. They would become better sisters than now, but now… w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was; Zhao Ying wasn’t. Then, there would inevitably be some contradictions.
“What happened really?” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan didn’t think of Zhao Ying’s real thoughts, so she was still asking about it. She wanted to know why Zhao Ying was not happy.
“You… really want to know?” Zhao Ying hesitated for a long while, then asked.
“Yes, Sister Ying, I am worried about you!” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan nodded. Zhao Ying was her only good friend in Song Jiang. Of course, except for Yang Ming, but she and Yang Ming weren’t friends at the moment. If you have to say that they were friends, it was more like a friends.h.i.+p between a couple.
When Zhao Ying was in Song Jiang, the person that treated her the best was only w.a.n.g Xiaoyan alone, so she didn’t say anything after so long because of this reason. She was afraid that if she spoke about it, their friends.h.i.+p would have a rift.
It wasn’t that Zhao Ying thought too much, but this was the fact. How many good sisters had turned against each other because they fell in love with the same man? There were too many examples, so Zhao Ying didn’t want to take this risk.
It was just that w.a.n.g Xiaoyan was constantly asking questions. She didn’t seem to stop before getting an answer, so Zhao Ying had no choice. She could only say, “Can we go to another place to talk about it? I don’t want to be here…”
“Alright…” w.a.n.g Xiaoyan nodded. She waved her hand to Yang Ming in apology and went out of the restaurant with Zhao Ying. “Where are we going?”
“Wherever. I don’t have any appet.i.te. Why don’t we go to your house?” Zhao Ying felt that some words couldn’t be told outside, so it was better to go somewhere without outsiders.
