Chapter 153: Secret Crossfire (1)

When Zhao Youlin finally made the decision to have Xiao Jingyao contact Mu Tingfeng, to her surprise, Mu Tingfeng was coincidentally not in the city.

She could not tell if she was relieved or disappointed. But Zhao Youlin was not too bothered about this. She only told Xiao Jingyao to set aside this matter for now and to do something else first. They were to only make their decisions once Mu Tingfeng came back.

However, Zhao Youlin did not expect to have to wait for an entire week for it. Fortunately, Zhao Youlin had quite a number of stuff to handle over this period of time, so she was not too bothered over the waiting time.

During this period of time, Duan Yarong told Zhao Youlin it was the death anniversary of her long-deceased grandmother. Every year, at that point of time, the old master would personally bring his three sons and his daughters-in-law to sweep his wife’s grave.

Since the entire family went, it was enough to show how much value the old master placed in this matter, and even the people in the Zhao family also paid attention to this matter.

Early that day, the old master brought Duan Yarong, Zhao Youlin, Joy, and Zhao Shunrong out. The five of them went, but they sat in two cars. The old master himself was in one car, while Zhao Youlin, Joy, Duan Yarong, and Zhao Shunrong were in the other.

Originally, the old master wanted Zhao Youlin and Joy to sit together with him, but Joy was very close to Duan Yarong now, so he did not want to be separated from her.

Since Joy wanted to sit together with Duan Yarong, Zhao Youlin definitely did not want to be separated from her precious son.

Hence, the old master could only sit alone in his car.

“Joy, do you really not want to sit with Grandpa?” Before he went into the car, the old master pulled a long face and stared at Joy pitifully while the boy remained in Zhao Youlin’s arms. He had an eager look on his face.

Joy’s arms were around Zhao Youlin’s neck. The old master’s wrinkly face was reflected in his big eyes. They roved about, going between the smiling Duan Yarong and the old master a few times before he still said something that let the old master down. “I’ll sit with Grandma.”

The old master looked dejected, and when he stared at Joy, his gaze was filled with pain.

He was clearly the one who first came into contact with Joy among the adults, so why did the boy end up throwing himself into another person’s arms? Was he really as traitorous as his mother?!

Since he could not convince the child, the old master decided to place his attention on the adult. “Lass, how could you bear watching me sit alone in the car?”

Zhao Youlin retorted coolly, “Alone? Grandfather, is Uncle Zhao not human?”

By the side, Uncle Zhao was ordering the servants to place what was necessary into the car. When he heard what Zhao Youlin said, he turned around and went along with the flow. “Look at what the eldest lady said. I am, of course, human. If I’m not human, that would make me a monster.”

The moment Uncle Zhao said these words, the people by the side could not hold back their laughter.

The old master was rendered speechless by Zhao Youlin. He looked downcast and used the method he had used against Joy to ask pitifully, “Is it really impossible?”

Zhao Youlin cocked her eyebrows and had a teasing look on her face. “What do you think?”

Once he knew that things were set in stone, the old master slumped down and mumbled, “The lass and my own great-grandson don’t love me anymore. They don’t know how to respect the elderly at all. They won’t even satisfy such a small request from me. I’m really sad. My grandchildren are so unfilial…”

Zhao Youlin just watched quietly as the old master capitalized on his seniority to attract attention. Her lips twitched, and she found herself unable to bear the sight.

Meanwhile, the innocent Joy found his heart going out to the old master when he listened to his complaints. He felt troubled and said, “It’s not that I don’t love you anymore, don’t be sad, Great Grandfather.”

“Oh, my beloved grandson, why are you so cute? Come here, let Grandma give you a kiss.” Just then, Duan Yarong had watched this scene by the side with a smile, saying nothing. Now, when she saw Joy puffing out his cheeks because he did not know what to do, she was finally unable to hold back anymore and laughed. She reached out and grabbed the boy from Zhao Youlin’s arms so that she could kiss him.

Zhao Youlin smiled as well. She reached out to stroke Joy’s head and comforted him, “Your great grandfather is just joking with you. You can ignore him, Joy.”

Once she finished speaking, Zhao Youlin turned around and gave the old master a warning look before she said in resignation, “Enough already, Grandfather. It’s just a trip. It’ll be over before you blink, must you be so conflicted? Hurry up and get into the car, or else…”

The old master shuddered when he heard the profound chuckle from Zhao Youlin at the end, so he could only reluctantly sit in his car and did not try anything desperate anymore.

When Uncle Zhao saw the morose look the old master had, he lamented that after the eldest lady returned home, the old master’s status at home had been endangered. Meanwhile, he felt that the old master was fine like this. At the very least, he felt that the current old master was in a much more relaxed state compared to the oppressive old master who stood above all of them in the past.

After the ruckus caused by the old master, they left slightly later compared to the time they originally set. When they reached the graveyard, the other two families had already arrived.

From the distance, Zhao Youlin saw Li Hongyu and Sun Fengzi standing together at some point of time. From her angle, she could see Sun Fengzi’s arrogant face and Li Fengyu’s delicate and frail figure.

Zhao Shuncheng stood not far away from Li Hongyu, so Li Hongyu intentionally pretended to be pitiful to stir up his pity. She did not dare to do anything rude to destroy her pure image in Zhao Shuncheng’s heart. She could only clench her fists repeatedly and bite her lip to pretend to be pitiful. At the same time, she suppressed the anger in her heart.

In truth, she managed to do it. Soon, Zhao Shuncheng’s attention was drawn to the noise at her side. He walked over to her and put on the stance of a protector to stand in front of Li Hongyu while putting on a stern face to growl something at Sun Fengzi.

Even if Zhao Youlin could not hear what Zhao Shuncheng was saying because of how far away she was and could not see what he was saying due to the angle, she could guess that Zhao Shuncheng was siding with Li Hongyu.

When she saw this, Zhao Youlin did not know how she should react. Was this what they meant by those who were evil would have worse people tormenting them? This fight between villains was really interesting.

Unfortunately, this show did not last long.

Once the old master’s car arrived, the people who were arguing instantly stopped arguing. They simultaneously turned their heads over.

TAt the moment the door was opened, Li Hongyu registered what was going on. She cast a glance at Zhao Youxi.

Zhao Youxi understood it. She put on a gentle smile and went to the old master’s car while calling out to him happily and cordially, “Grandfather…”
