Chapter 827: Leave The Dead In Peace (1)
Zhao Youlin’s stomach had already taken on a certain shape and it was inconvenient to carry the child. Thus, she gave Mu Tingfeng a look and asked him to help carry the child.
Mu Tingfeng understood and bent over to carry Joy. Joy imdiately wrapped his arms around Mu Tingfeng’s neck like an octopus.
“Daddy, I’m so scared, I’m so scared.”
Mu Tingfeng looked at his miserable son and sighed softly. He patted his son’s back. He said in a low voice, “It’s okay. It’s okay. You’re a man. You can’t cry over such a small matter. Did you see how hard mom tried to save you today? Mom worked so hard because you weren’t strong enough. If you had been strong enough, she wouldn’t need to protect you at all. You should be the one to protect mom.”
Zhao Youlin was a little speechless when she heard this. She thought that Mu Tingfeng’s words would always be more comforting and less harsh at tis like this. Who knew that this guy’s words would still be so stiff... he looked like he was going to choke soone to death.
Zhao Youlin’s face darkened. Just as she was about to speak, she saw Joy stop crying. He looked at Mu Tingfeng in a daze. Then, his eyes lit up, and he said with a look of enlightennt, “I understand!”
“Okay.”
Zhao Youlin was speechless. Alright, she didn’t understand what the boy was thinking.
Joy sniffled for a while longer. The butler hurriedly brought a bowl of hot porridge up.
Joy was originally so hungry that his chest and back could have made contact at that point. When he saw the food, he imdiately threw all the unhappiness from before to the back of his mind.
Mu Tingfeng and Zhao Youlin looked at the child’s appearance and finally felt slightly relieved.
After settling Zhao Youlin and the child down, Mu Tingfeng was ready to turn around and walk downstairs. Zhao Youlin grabbed his hand and said in a low voice, “My parents were worried about
and Joy. Their words might not be pleasant to hear. Please bear with them.”
Her current situation was special. Duan Yarong and Zhao Shunrong could not bear to say anything about her, but Mu Tingfeng was afraid that he would not be able to escape this scolding today.
Mu Tingfeng reached out to touch Zhao Youlin’s face and said indifferently, “I know.”
His failure had allowed his wife and child fall into such a difficult situation. It was normal for the elders to scold him, so this scolding wasn’t unjustified.
Zhao Youlin did not know how miserable Mu Tingfeng had been scolded that night. She only knew that when she woke up the next morning, she was hugging a little hobbit that was clinging to her like an octopus.
As if sensing that Zhao Youlin had woken up, Mu Tingfeng slowly opened his eyes. His deep eyes reflected Zhao Youlin’s face, and there was a hint of confusion that he didn’t usually have.
After he gradually woke up, the first thing he did was to move closer to Zhao Youlin and kiss her forehead. “Good Morning.”
“Good Morning.” Zhao Youlin smiled and returned the kiss without hesitation, causing Mu Tingfeng’s deep eyes to darken.
Without waiting for him to do anything more outrageous to this woman who dared to provoke him, the little brat who was sandwiched between the two of them twisted his little butt and crawled out of Zhao Youlin’s arms, he narrowed his eyes and kissed Zhao Youlin’s face. He said softly, “Good morning, Mom.”
Zhao Youlin lowered her head and kissed the child’s forehead. “Good morning, Joy.”
After doing all this, she looked up at Mu Tingfeng and said with so amusent, “What did mom and dad say to you yesterday?”
“Nothing.” Mu Tingfeng reached out and touched Zhao Youlin’s cheek. Seeing that Zhao Youlin seed to want to continue asking, Mu Tingfeng added with so helplessness and pain. “You’d better think about how to explain yourself to mom and dad later.”
The smile on Zhao Youlin’s face froze. She rolled her eyes at Mu Tingfeng in embarrassnt and anger. Then, she carried Joy and got up to wash up.
Mu Tingfeng got up together with Zhao Youlin.
After washing up, he walked down the stairs with Joy, who was still a little confused. When she saw the adults who had been waiting in the hall for a long ti, Zhao Youlin realized that she might be in big trouble.
“Dad, mom, why are you here? Mom, when did you co back? Why didn’t you tell us in advance so that we could pick you up?”
Zhao Shunrong and Duan Yarong were not the only ones sitting in the hall!
Zhao Youlin finally understood why Mu Tingfeng had been gloating. This guy must have known long ago!
Mu Tingfeng sensed Zhao Youlin’s resentnt. He curled his lips and did not refute her.
“I heard that sothing happened between you and Joy. How can I continue to live peacefully abroad? Your father could not get away, so he asked
to co back first. I don’t want to criticize you, but why didn’t you tell us about such a big matter? If your mother hadn’t told us, would you have continued to hide it from us?” Su Ruixin took over the dazed Joy, looking at the bruises on the child’s face. Her heart ached.
Zhao Youlin finally reacted and sighed. “Mom, aren’t we fine?”
“Don’t tell
you want sothing to happen? This isn’t the first ti you’ve taken matters into your own hands, Youlin.”
Duan Yarong interjected with Su Ruixin’s support. “That’s right. This ti, I really want to talk about you. How can you not discuss such a big matter with your parents or us? You’re putting yourself in danger just like that. If sothing really happened...”
Su Ruixin changed the topic and directly turned to Mu Tingfeng. “You too. Youlin dove into the fire, and you followed. Fortunately, she turned out fine this ti. Otherwise, where would you find such a person?”
Mu Tingfeng knew that he was in the wrong. He kept a cold face and did not say anything.
The parents were all sharp-tongued and soft-hearted. After reprimanding Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng, they began to ask about Zhao Youlin’s health. Only then did Zhao Youlin heave a huge sigh of relief.
After repeatedly assuring them that everything was fine and that she was as healthy as could be, she managed to slightly calm the emotions of the elders.
“Dad, Mom... the matter between Zhao Youming and Zhao Youxi...”
“It’s done.”
“So soon?” Zhao Youlin was a little surprised. “Then the matter with Zhao Yifei...”
“It has also been settled,” Zhao Shunrong added as if he had thought of sothing, “The police later investigated and found that Youming did not follow Yifei ho after he t him in the bar. Later, the staff of a coffee shop could prove that he did et a woman in their coffee shop at the ti of the murder. The two of them stayed in the coffee shop until it was very late, so he did not have the ti to commit the cri. “Therefore, he was cleared of the suspicion. The real murderer was Youxi. But there’s no point in talking about it now. They’re both dead.”
