Chapter 477: Fall Into a Ditch (1)

Mu Tingfeng instinctively turned his head around when he heard the sound of footsteps.
Before he got a clearer vision of the person’s face, he felt something in his arms followed by a familiar, cute voice.

Mu Tingfeng was stunned.
He looked at the tiny person who had appeared all of a sudden in his arms.
Within an instant, the imposing aura surrounding him subsided.
He stretched out his hand and caressed Joy’s small head as he asked softly, “Where’s Mommy?”

Joy enjoyed the sensation he had felt the moment Mu Tingfeng caressed him.
As far as he remembered, no one had bigger, wider and warmer palms than Mu Tingfeng.

The moment Mu Tingfeng spread his hand, more than half of his head was buried in his arm.
As such, Joy found this amusing.

Whenever Mu Tingfeng touched his head, Joy would act honestly just like now.

“Um, Mommy is over there.
She asked me to come over to find you and bring you back.” Joy was hugging Mu Tingfeng’s waist tightly.
He rubbed his small face against Mu Tingfeng’s broad chest and yawned comfortably as he pointed to a direction not far away from them as he answered.

The noble young ladies had targeted Mu Tingfeng.
When they saw Joy’s appearance and how Mu Tingfeng adored and indulged him, they were disappointed.

After they heard Joy’s replies and looked in the direction where he had pointed, they were greeted by the sight of Zhao Youlin staring at them teasingly without knowing how long it had been.
Their troubled expression instantly froze.

The noble young women exchanged gazes before they snorted sulkily.
They jerked their feet and left.

The group of women gritted their teeth and looked sulkily as if something precious to them had been grabbed away.
Seeing this, Zhao Youlin rolled her eyes in resignation.

Did these women know that Mu Tingfeng is already a married man? It was still okay that they wanted to look for ways to seduce her fiance and be his mistress behind her back.
But, they even looked as if something important to them had been taken away from them! In fact, who were the ones who had wanted to take him away from her in the first place?!

On top of that, Zhao Youlin was serious with them.
She had even asked Joy to run over to him in order to agitate them.
She truly felt that she was getting worse.

While Zhao Youlin was making quips to herself, suddenly, she heard the sound of footsteps.
She looked in the direction of the sound and saw Mu Tingfeng was walking toward her with Joy in his arms.

When the stoic-faced man found that she was looking in the other direction, he turned his head around and cast a profound glance at the women whom she had set up to drive them away.
The hint of mockery and teasing appeared in his eyes.

Zhao Youlin was embarrassed.
By the time she recovered her senses, she protested indignantly out of shame by glaring at Mu Tingfeng.

If not for the fact that Mu Tingfeng was so eye-catching and often attracted lots of admirers, did she even have to be so childish to the extent of doing something like this in order to claim her ownership over him?

Mu Tingfeng knew that at certain times he still had to show his respects to Zhao Youlin and could not tease her too hard.
Therefore, he cleverly switched the topic and asked, “Where have you taken Joy to just now?”

Before Zhao Youlin could say anything, Joy had already snapped in, “Daddy, Mommy took me to the kitchen and secretly ate some food!”

Right after Joy spoke, the corners of Zhao Youlin’s lips unwittingly twitched.

Such an ungrateful brat! He was ungrateful just like his father.
Joy had only made contact with Mu Tingfeng several times.
Yet, he had already sided with him.
He even betrayed Zhao Youlin merely in a few words.
What a waste having to love him so much over the past!

Thinking of this, Zhao Youlin grew a little jealous and pinched her son’s round cheek.
When Joy looked a little teary under her pinch, only then did she fall into a good mood and showed her mercy to him.

Of course, if the kid did not bury his head into Mu Tingfeng’s arms to seek comfort right after being bullied by her, Zhao Youlin would be in a better mood.

Mu Tingfeng carefully stretched out his hand and stroked the pitiful child’s reddened small face after being ravaged by Zhao Youlin.
He watched each and every change of expression on Zhao Youlin’s face through his peripheral vision.

Mu Tingfeng knew that Zhao Youlin was jealous because of her son.
He felt happy and helpless at the same time.
After he comforted his son, he cleverly switched the topic once again.
“Most of the guests have left.
You’ve been receiving a lot of guests today.
Are you tired?”

“Mother and Grandpa are basically the ones who received the guests.
I’m only assisting them.” As Zhao Youlin was speaking this, she instinctively cast a glance at Mu Tingfeng’s back before she asked in a low voice, “Where’s President Ye? Didn’t he say he wants to have a word with you alone? Why don’t I see him around?”

“President Ye has gone back.”

“He has gone back home?” Zhao Youlin was stunned.
She had never thought that Ye Yan would make a move first.

Mu Tingfeng nodded.
He unusually explained on Ye Yan’s behalf, “He has some urgent issues to handle so he has to leave first.
He asked me to inform your parents on his behalf.”

“Oh.” Zhao Youlin lightly responded to him and did not ask further.

Just when Mu Tingfeng was about to say a few words with Zhao Youlin, he heard the sound of footsteps from behind.
They turned their heads around and saw Duan Yarong, An Yue and the rest were coming over to them.

When Zhao Youlin saw An Yue, she suddenly recalled something and exclaimed, “Yue Yue, where’s An Qi? Why is she not arriving yet?”

When An Yue and the rest of her group heard this, they were equally startled.
They had been too occupied with the commotion caused by Sun Fengzi and Zhao Yifei as well as receiving the guests.
As such, they had forgotten that An Yue and Nie Yunfan had not arrived yet!

“Where’s Nie Yunfan?” Seeing that An Yue did not answer her, Zhao Youlin immediately moved her gaze and looked at Han Yichen.

Han Yichen quirked one of his eyebrows and answered, “He hasn’t arrived as well.”

Upon hearing this, a sense of bad feeling sprouted in Zhao Youlin’s heart.
The corners of her lips twitched as she asked, “That guy is not such a scum to the extent of not even sparing his friend, right?”

Han Yichen’s expression immediately turned strange.
“I… don’t think so too…”

Zhao Youlin said, “Yichen, if he’s not scum, why are you sounding so unsure?”

Imagine what scum Nie Yunfan was to the extent that even Han Yichen could not guarantee his behavior after many years of friendship!

While Zhao Youlin and the rest were talking about them, An Yue’s phone rang just then.

Everyone instantly turned their attention to An Yue.
An Yue quickly read the phone number displayed on the screen, only to realize that it was a stranger’s number.

An Yue hesitated for a while before she decided to answer the call.
“Hi, who is calling, are you An Qi? Where are you, An Qi? Why haven’t you arrived yet? Why are you calling with a stranger’s phone? Where’s Yunfan? Is he beside you?”

An Yue asked a series of questions at a time before she fell silent.
The next moment, she reacted as if she had just heard some terrifying news.
Her face turned white and her eyes flew wide open.

When the crowd saw her in her current state, they began to worry.
