Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful
Chapter 333 - Good Intentions Go Awry (2)
The gentle smile on Zhao Youlin’s face stiffened. Her face turned black, and it was fearful to look at. Her hand, which she used to carry Joy tightened. She coaxed him in a low voice, “Don’t be scared, don’t be scared. I’m here. I’m here…”
After a brief exchange, the atmosphere in the car turned gloomier than before.
After that, no one spoke a word again inside the car as they were on the way to their destination. Everyone fell silent as if no one was willing to bother one another.
Mu Tingfeng naturally felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. More so, he also knew that he was the cause of such an atmosphere. He opened his mouth several times, trying to talk to the mother-son pair, but he did not know how to start the conversation.
The awkward situation remained until they arrived at their destination.
Su Qing’s husband was called Song Yi. He was the current head of the Song family, which was one of the four greatest families in Shalnork.
Although these families were called the four greatest families, they were divided into two categories due to power and money. The Ye family and the Nie family were more prominent in the business arena, while the Ling family and the Song family were more prominent in the political arena.
The Song family and the Ling family were both well-known for their military and political power. Over the past few decades, the Ye family had befriended the Ling family, while the Song family had befriended the Nie family, the two groups consisting of experts in business and politics respectively. They were closely linked together, maintaining an unspoken balance among the four greatest families.
The destination where Zhao Youlin and the rest were heading to, belonged to the Song family, which was a villa situated by the hillside.
Even though the villa was located by the hillside, the road was rather smooth. After their car drove past a brightly lit mountain road, they reached an iron gate engraved with beautiful patterns.
Zhao Youlin was sitting inside the car while watching the police officers pacing back and forth around the gate. All of them carried weapons.
With just a single glance at them, Zhao Youlin could be sure that they were real fighters.
Zhao Youlin’s expression darkened. She thought to herself, ‘It seems like the Song family is rather powerful, and they truly live up to their name!’
After the car entered the main gate, it drove forward again for about ten minutes before Zhao Youlin and the rest finally saw the villa where the banquet was being held.
Looking at such an incredibly luxurious setting, Zhao Youlin could not help but lament over the corruption of filthy rich men once again. Even their courtyard was much more spacious than an average home.
Finally, the car reached the villa’s main entrance. As soon as the car stopped, Zhao Youlin immediately got out of the car while holding the quiet Joy in her arms. Before she closed the car door, she shouted at Mu Tingfeng disdainfully.
“Since you’re so reluctant, you might as well don’t come over and pick us up in the beginning. If you are so angry all the time, we’re also not going to be happy!” Right after she screamed at him, she carried Joy, turned around and headed toward the villa entrance without waiting for Mu Tingfeng to respond.
Mu Tingfeng returned to his senses some time after he had been scoffed at. Was he just dumped by Zhao Youlin after she had used him up?
Meanwhile, the mighty secretary Xia was holding the steering tightly and he was fixing his gaze at the front. His expression looked complicated, as if he felt guilty for doing a bad thing with good intentions.
In fact, his good intentions had gone awry!
By the time Zhao Youlin and the rest arrived, it was already almost eight o’clock. The banquet was about to start.
Apart from them, many people had just arrived as well. They were coincidentally greeted by the sight of Zhao Youlin carrying a child as they got out of Mu Tingfeng’s car, and her scolding someone in the car indignantly.
The others were far away from them. Although they heard Zhao Youlin’s voice, they could not hear what she was saying at all.
As they related her to their various gossips before this, they interpreted the truth as a matter of fact like this — Today, President Mu had fetched his ex-wife to attend the Song family’s banquet. She knew the relationship between President Mu and the madam of the Song family, and that President Mu would certainly be present, so she had played some tricks by using her son in order to get a ride from President Mu.
President Mu had allowed the two to get into his car because of her son. However, this woman shamelessly got handsy with President Mu in the car, hoping that she could seduce the president to recover their relationship.
President Mu could not hold himself back any longer. The moment they arrived at the main entrance of the Song family, he immediately kicked the duo out of the car. The woman was reluctant. So, she carried the child and scolded President Mu outside his car. When she realized the situation was not getting any better, she carried her child in her arms and left dejectedly.
Originally, Xia Zhetao wanted Mu Tingfeng to personally go to fetch Zhao Youlin and her son from the Zhao family so that the others knew how Mu Tingfeng had treated the duo, as well as serving a warning to them so that the others would not verbally abuse the mother-son pair.
Unfortunately, his plan failed to catch up with the changes. Now, instead of being alerted and shutting their mouths, Zhao Youlin and her son as the subject of discussion among the crowd grew intensified. He had overplayed his hand.
Of course, at that moment, the people involved totally knew nothing about this.
By the time Zhao Youlin held Joy and entered, the banquet had already started for quite some time.
Seeing a woman holding a child coming in, many people turned around and looked at them curiously. Some whispered among themselves after seeing the mother-son pair.
Some who were unaware of their identities asked others around as they wondered who this beautiful woman with a child was. Some knew her identities and whispered to others around them. The way they looked at Zhao Youlin and her son was unfriendly.
Zhao Youlin never cared about the unnecessary attention nor hostility gathered on her. However, Joy was an entirely different matter.
This was Joy’s first time attending this type of banquet. He did not know how to avoid the gazes that had been cast at him from various directions. The last time when he attended the former master’s grand birthday banquet, he had directly gone in through the back door.
Later, Duan Yarong was worried that a single child like him would feel uneasy at the banquet. Therefore, she purposely had someone to prepare good food and found a place for the mother-son pair to have the food.
As such, Joy never experienced a setting like this before. Everything he knew about banquets was food.
A child was more sensitive. Even though he did not understand the various hidden meanings of their gazes as the people were staring at him, he sensed a hint of wickedness from them.
Joy blinked his bright, large eyes. He held Zhao Youlin’s hand nervously and subconsciously hid behind her.
Zhao Youlin furrowed her eyebrows. She reached out to comfort and caress Joy’s head.
As she was about to cast a cold glance across the crowd so that these people, who had been watching her and her son could withdraw their gazes, suddenly, she heard a commotion coming from the side.
Zhao Youlin was stunned. The next moment, she seemed to have thought of something. She turned her head around and looked in the direction, only to see Mu Tingfeng was walking in.
Apparently, the female celebrities and noblewomen were more interested in the president of the Mu Feng Group, as well as the heir of the Mu family compared to the single mother and her son.
In just a while, their attention that was initially gathered on Zhao Youlin and her son was greatly reduced by more than half.
Zhao Youlin narrowed her eyes as she looked at the man, who attracted more than eighty percent of the ladies’ attraction on the spot. An obvious hint of sulkiness appeared in her eyes.
As usual, this man still attracted a lot of admirers like bees to honey!
