Chapter 289: The Question Before This (2)

The creases between Zhao Youlin’s eyebrows gradually smoothed out.
Even the anger on her face also subsided.
She looked at Mu Tingfeng with a teasing smile, “Are you sure you want me to answer… your question?”

Looking at Zhao Youlin’s mocking gaze, he felt that something was wrong.
Yet, he still nodded his head.

The corners of Zhao Youlin’s lips gradually curled upward.
She took the initiative to lean closer to Mu Tingfeng.
“When your parents left, I suddenly recalled something interesting.”

“Something interesting?”

“That’s right.
Something interesting.” Zhao Youlin grinned like a Cheshire cat.
The ever-calm President Mu felt a chill creeping down his spine.

“That day, my mother and I came to visit you.
I suppose you still remember it, right?”

Mu Tingfeng was stunned for a while before he nodded hesitantly.

“Originally, my mother was worried about me spending time with you alone.
So, she insisted on tagging along with me.
However, ever since then, my mother did not come to the hospital anymore.
Do you know why?”

Mu Tingfeng frowned.
He muffled his voice, “Was it because Aunt realized I am not as terrible as she had thought after visiting me in person?”

“Not as terrible as she had thought? What makes you think that her impression about you would change after you forcibly kissed her daughter in front of her?”

Mu Tingfeng fell speechless.

“The reason my mother did not come with me ever since then was because your mother has told her something.” Zhao Youlin used her unrestrained hand to draw circles on Mu Tingfeng’s chest flirtatiously.
Her eyes carried a hint of seduction and mockery.

Looking at the current Zhao Youlin, Mu Tingfeng’s gaze grew increasingly profound.

Unfortunately, before he had any dirty thoughts about the person pressing against him, Zhao Youlin’s following words finally got his stoic face twisted.

“Your mother told my mother that the president of Mu Feng Group, the man whom all the women in Shalnork want to marry the most, is actually dysfunctional in a certain area.” While she was speaking, she swept her glance at Mu Tingfeng’s lower body teasingly.
She inevitably hinted to him the area in which he was dysfunctional.

Within an instant, Mu Tingfeng’s expression turned… black.
A man would usually be angry when someone questioned his strengths, much less… when the person was someone whom he liked.

Looking at Mu Tingfeng’s expression that was darker than thunderclouds, Zhao Youlin was overjoyed.
Yet, she continued solemnly, “Initially, I did not believe her at all.
After all, how could a great man like you be… especially when we already have Joy.
If you’re incapable in that area, how did I conceive Joy? But, the way Madam Mu reasoned and justified her statements was so convincing that in the end, I had to believe everything she said.”

Mu Tingfeng’s expression was so black that it looked scary.
However, upon hearing Zhao Youlin’s words, he played along with her and asked, “Oh, what else has my mother said?”

His calm tone carried a hint of danger like an incoming hurricane.
Unfortunately, at that time, Zhao Youlin was so focused on digging at the certain one to the point that she was completely oblivious about this.

“Your mother said you were once normal.
However, you’re heavily traumatized after being struck down by my unscrupulous and reckless means a few years ago.
From then on…”

Right after Zhao Youlin spoke, the atmosphere inside the ward instantly turned strange.

“Oh, by the way, I even stirred you up with this incident when we divorced.
I never thought I got it right by chance of luck.
I’m sorry for that,” Zhao Youlin apologized insincerely.
She once again cast a glance at Mu Tingfeng’s lower body.
She grinned and did not look remorseful at all.
That look was truly annoying.

Zhao Youlin was fully concentrating on a certain one’s lower body.
She did not notice a glimpse of light was caught in the man’s eyes.

After she finished speaking, Zhao Youlin seemed like she still had not had enough of it.
She continued to draw circles on Mu Tingfeng’s body daringly and teasingly.
She smirked, “I have to say, Aunt is very clever indeed.
She made use of my mother’s guilty conscience so that my mother sided with you.
However, this alone was insufficient to make my mother let her guard down against you.
What truly made my mother sympathize with you was Madam Mu’s following words.”

Mu Tingfeng quirked one of his eyebrows, “Oh, really? What else did my mother say?”

Zhao Youlin caressed Mu Tingfeng’s abs covered beneath his sheer patient gown, as if playing a prank on him.
She keenly felt the man under her shudder as she did so.
Zhao Youlin was in a good mood, and the corners of her lips curled upward.
She said faintly, “Madam Mu said, this is the reason for your low self-esteem.
You have clearly fallen in love with me throughout the years as we spent time together.
However, you dared not confess to me.
You tried your best to hide your feelings for me.
In the end, you even resorted to an inappropriate way just to distance yourself from Joy and me on purpose.
You did this because you wanted to maintain your last bit of dignity.”

When Zhao Youlin said this, she instinctively looked up and met Mu Tingfeng’s eyes.
She snorted, “Over the past four years, as far as I am concerned, why hadn’t I noticed you actually caring so much about me and Joy, huh?”

Zhao Youlin’s words were filled with sarcasm.
Although she was not the previous Zhao Youlin, her memories over the past four years were with her.

While she believed the current Mu Tingfeng liked her, she did not believe… not even once if one told her that Mu Tingfeng had already fallen for the previous Zhao Youlin in the past.

Mu Tingfeng was indifferent toward Zhao Youlin’s sarcastic remarks.
He only focused on what Zhao Youlin had said earlier.
He merely asked, “So, is this why you suddenly went on a blind date?”

Mu Tingfeng had long known about Duan Yarong’s intention of asking Zhao Youlin to go on a blind date.
However, he heard that Zhao Youlin had turned a cold shoulder to it.
So, he did not pay much attention to this.
He thought Zhao Youlin was more or less thinking of him.

To Mu Tingfeng’s surprise, when he thought their relationship had finally made some progress, he received the news about Zhao Youlin attending the blind date of her own will.

Mu Tingfeng panicked at once.
That was also why he had behaved so recklessly that day.
Now, as he gave a second thought about it, perhaps, the reason Zhao Youlin went on a blind date all of a sudden was because it was related to his mother.
His mother had spewed more than she should without getting his prior consent!

“Yes.
Since Madam Mu has said so, how could I not believe her? I’m not an idiot, after all.
If I knew you have become like that, why should I still cling to you, President Mu?” Zhao Youlin was in a good mood.
She did not pull any punches and spoke truthfully.
At the same time, she dug at Mu Tingfeng once again for her own amusement.

“If so, why aren’t you concerned about that now… and agreed to give me a chance?”

Upon hearing that, Zhao Youlin looked up.
She was about to end this topic that was quickly derailing.
However, she seemed to think of something.
She glared at Mu Tingfeng profoundly and sneered, “If I remembered correctly, I said, I promised to give you a chance.
But, I didn’t say the person has to be you.”

Mu Tingfeng’s eyes sparkled, “What you meant was, if you are not satisfied with me in the future, you might abandon me, is that it?”
