Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Chapter 567: The President Is Petty and Petulant (1)

During the meal, the girls enjoyed the food thoroughly, while the boys were not in the mood to enjoy it, as one of them was exuding a cold aura while the other one was suffering from it.

It was a pity that in front of food, Li had blocked all the bluster from the other side of the table. Li stuffed her mouth with food and shared with Zhao Youlin the food that she thought was good. She was really enjoying herself, not realizing that she had stolen away the attention of someone’s wife, and that someone now wanted to skin her alive.

The good thing was that Li’s gorging ability was a match for her insensitivity. In less than an hour, she had managed to finish most of the food on the table.

And by the time she finished the dinner, it was already late. Mu Tingfeng’s carefully prepared date had completely been ruined.

Seeing that she had finished, Ling Ran, who had suffered from the coldness for over an hour, dragged Li up from her seat hastily. He thanked them and took the initiative to get the check. Then, he got out of that place as soon as he could.

Ling Ran and Li had finally left, but it was time for them to go home, too. So shortly after Ling Ran and Li left, Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng left as well. Though Mu Tingfeng’s expression remained gloomy even after they got in the car.

Looking at Mu Tingfeng’s expression, Zhao Youlin could not help but burst out laughing.

"Hahahaha…." Her laughter echoed in the car.

Mu Tingfeng’s expression became more and more gloomy. After Zhao Youlin had laughed enough, she turned her head to look at Mu Tingfeng’s sullen face, but that only made her want to laugh again.

However, she also knew that if she laughed again, Mu Tingfeng would really get mad at her.

"Are you mad?"

When Zhao Youlin took the initiative to talk to him, Mu Tingfeng’s expression softened a little, but it was just by a little.

In response to Zhao Youlin’s question, Mu Tingfeng looked away and concentrated on the road. He continued to focus on driving without saying a word. He was obviously still angry.

Seeing that, Zhao Youlin chuckled. "Are you really going to be that petty? It’s not like we had any choice when we saw them in the restaurant. We couldn’t just pretend that we didn’t see them, could we? We will just go to someplace with lesser people next time, someplace where we won’t run into our friends again."

Mu Tingfeng was a little upset when he heard Zhao Youlin call him petty, but the rage inside was quenched when Zhao Youlin said next time. He asked in surprise, "There is a next time?"

Seeing his reaction, Zhao Youlin wanted to tease him. With a smile on her face, she said, "Alright, no next time then."

Mu Tingfeng’s face turned gloomy again. He knew that Zhao Youlin was just teasing him, but he still replied bitterly, "We can go on another date, but no friends next time."

"Pfff…" She had

When Mu Tingfeng turned his head and saw that Zhao Youlin was trying to hold back from laughing, the tips of his ears once again became incredibly red.

The stagnant atmosphere between them had been washed away after that and became lively again.

While Zhao Youlin was still holding back her laughter and Mu Tingfeng was feeling awkward, a melodious ringtone grabbed their attention.

They were stunned at the same time. After looking around for the source of the sound for a moment, they found that Mu Tingfeng’s phone was ringing.

Mu Tingfeng took out his phone and glanced at the name of the caller displayed on the screen. He frowned and gestured to Zhao Youlin not to speak before answering the call.

"Yes? This is me. In the next few days? Okay, I will relay the message to her. Okay, bye." After Mu Tingfeng picked up the phone, she did not know what the person on the other end of the phone said, but Mu Tingfeng hung up the phone after a short while.

Seeing that Mu Tingfeng had hung up, Zhao Youlin asked, "Who was that?"

Mu Tingfeng hesitated for a moment and said in a muffled voice, "Jifeng."

Su Jifeng! Zhao Youlin was surprised to hear that. Then, as if she had thought of something, she frowned and asked, "Why did he suddenly call you? Did something happen to Xiao He?"

"Yes and no."

Mu Tingfeng’s ambiguous answer did not ease Zhao Youlin’s concern. She became even more worried. "What do you mean by yes and no? It’s either yes or no. Give me a clear answer. Are you trying to make me worried sick? Are Xiao He and her baby fine or not?"

Mu Tingfeng seemed to be amused by Zhao Youlin’s exasperated look. He felt that he had gotten over the embarrassment he felt after being teased by her. After a moment of silence, he finally mercifully explained, "Xiao He and her baby are fine. Don’t worry, but…"

"But?"

"But Su Jifeng’s parents and the old master of the Su family are probably coming home in the next few days."

Zhao Youlin paused for a moment. Her expression changed when she realized what that meant. "So soon! Then, Xiao He…"

Mu Tingfeng shook his head. There was a hint of concern in his eyes, too.

"When Su Jifeng called you just now, what did he ask you to do?" Knowing that Su He and the baby were safe, Zhao Youlin calmed down. Recalling Mu Tingfeng’s conversation with the person on the other end of the phone, a vague guess formed in her mind.

"He asked us to visit the Su Residence more often in the next two days if we have time."

Zhao Youlin flickered a little and almost immediately understood the underlying meaning of Su Jifeng’s words. "He is worried that he can’t handle the three elders by himself and wants us to go over and help him out?"

Mu Tingfeng did not say anything. He was admitting it silently.

"Even Su Jifeng can’t handle it. Looks like the old master of the Su family and your uncle are quite hot-tempered. But Xiao He is their daughter and granddaughter, no matter what. Will they really hurt her?"

Mu Tingfeng shook his head and said meaningfully, "Old Master Su, Uncle and Aunt have been doting on Xiao Qi since she was little. They won’t hurt Xiao Qi."

"Why would Su Jifeng need us there then?" Zhao Youlin’s eyebrows raised as she was puzzled.

"They won’t really hurt her, but it is possible that they might go too far when they are mad and hurt someone else instead."

Zhao Yulin nodded as realization dawned on her.

After explaining it to Zhao Youlin, Mu Tingfeng did not say anything more.

Zhao Youlin did not notice it at first. After a while, she noticed that Mu Tingfeng was driving in silence. She finally realized something was wrong, so she asked tentatively, "You… You look like you don’t really want to go to the Su Residence."

Mu Tingfeng turned his head and gave Zhao Youlin a glance. He did not answer her question, but Zhao Youlin already had an answer in her mind.

"Why don’t you want to go? Are you worried that you would become that someone else that they would hurt?"

Mu Tingfeng hesitated for a moment and shook his head.

"No?" Zhao Youlin was stunned. "What is the reason then?"

"I don’t want to help him."

"Him? You don’t want to help who? Su Jifeng or Xiao He?"

"Not them."

"Who?"

Mu Tingfeng’s ink-colored eyes darkened. He lightly uttered a name, "Ye Yan.."
