Chapter 164: Chance Encounter In The Elevator (1)

“Zhao Youlin, you…” Zhao Yifei kept cradling his lower body to endure his pain.
When he heard what Zhao Youlin said, he was so angry that his eyes rolled back.
In the end, he was so angry that he fainted.

But even as he laid unconscoius, his body still remained twitching.
Clearly, he was going through pain worse than death.

Xiao Jingyao and the secretary looked at each other at a loss for a long time before they snapped out of their dazes.
In a flurry of motion, they called the hospital.

Even though they could tell with just one glance that this person deserved it, this monster was still the young master of the Zhao family.
If he really died in Zhao Enterprise, they would have a hard time explaining things.

When the ambulance arrived, the entirety of Zhao Enterprise was in a ruckus.
Quite a number of people realized something major must have happened in the company, and while they did not dare say anything in public, they could not hold back their curiosity and still asked around in secret.

Since there were plenty of people in the company who were eager to tell stories and gossips spread the fastest, in less than half an hour since the ambulance left, all the employees in Zhao Enterprise basically knew that the vice division manager of the development department actually had the guts to go and molest the new general manager, and in her anger, the general manager kicked him so hard that he could no longer take care of himself over there.

As the saying went, “Good news never spread, but bad news spread like wildfire.” Once the morning was over, this matter ended up in Zhao Shunrong and Duan Yarong’s ears.

When Duan Yarong heard that Zhao Yifei had publicly gone off to molest Zhao Youlin in broad daylight, her face turned pale.
When she remembered what she saw in the backyard that day, she could not stop worrying.

The moment Zhao Youlin came home in the afternoon, she grabbed Zhao Youlin and examined her thoroughly.
Once she was certain that Zhao Youlin was unharmed, she sighed in relief.
Then, she kept on telling her how worried she was.

Zhao Youlin did not expect that the news would spread so fast.
She comforted Duan Yarong for a while and assured her repeatedly that was fine, and that the one who was injured was the one who had ulterior motives toward her.

Duan Yarong then finally calmed down a little.
She then nagged her a little more because she was worried.

Zhao Youlin listened to her while feeling guilty.
Meanwhile, she also cast a glance at Zhao Shunrong, who was standing beside Duan Yarong.
Once she saw that he did not blame her and looked a little worried, she finally felt at ease.

Duan Yarong nagged her for a long while, but she still felt angry.
When she saw Zhao Youlin’s face, she said angrily, “I thought that Yifei would be as dependable as his father.
I didn’t expect… Seriously, having that boy stay by Sun Fengzi’s side in the past was a mistake.
Look at how that child ended up.
Forget about the fact that he keeps flirting with women outside, he actually thought about flirting with his own family members! Youlin is his cousin, for crying out loud!”

The more Duan Yarong spoke, the angrier she became.
Her usually dignified and sensible mask cracked a little, which was a rare sight.

Zhao Youlin quickly comforted her, “Mother, don’t be angry.
It’s not worth it to get worked up and fall sick for that type of scum.
Besides, I’m fine, aren’t I? The one who is hurt is that person.
He might still be lying in the hospital right now.”

At this, Zhao Youlin felt amused.
If she remembered correctly, Zhao Yifei had just recovered and was discharged recently.
Yet, he was sent back so soon, so he must really love the hospital!

However, there were just some people who refused to remember their lessons.
If he still refused to remember this lesson, she did not mind sending him into the hospital a few more times.

“Ah, I get so angry the moment you mention this.
After that matter last time, I decided that we just can’t get along with your third uncle’s family.
Sun Fengzi is like a banshee and will screech at anyone the moment she gets her claws on them.
We’ve always had a grudge against each other, and I was worried that she will have some sort of ulterior motive against you.
That’s why I always told you to stay far away from them, but to my surprise…”

When Zhao Youlin heard this, she smiled bitterly and whispered, “Mother, I’ve already listened to you and tried my best to avoid them, but this time, this was really not my fault.
Some people will come causing trouble to me even if I don’t cause trouble to them.”

Duan Yarong was stunned for a moment before she said in alarm, “Youlin, I’m not blaming you.
I’m just worried…”

Zhao Youlin smiled and held Duan Yarong’s hand.
She said, “Mother, I know.
I’m just worried that Uncle Shunchang will cause trouble to you because of this matter.”

Even though Zhao Youlin did not regret what she did and would still mercilessly teach Zhao Yifei a lesson if time rewound, she should still clear things up with the people she should first.
Otherwise, if things ended up in a mess and she was caught off guard, the losses would outweigh the gains.

When Duan Yarong saw that Zhao Youlin did not misunderstand that she was blaming her, she sighed in relief.
But when she heard the second half of Zhao Youlin’s sentence, she schooled her expression and said, “What sort of trouble could they do? This matter isn’t your fault.
Sun Fengzi brought up a failure who can’t even understand the morals he should uphold between humans.
How could she be shameless enough to cause trouble in front of me? Don’t bother about this, I will handle this matter with your father.
You don’t have to worry about anything.
If anything happens, we will handle it.
This matter will not blow up.”

Once Duan Yarong finished speaking, she cast a glance at Zhao Shunrong.
Zhao Shunrong understood what she meant and nodded.
He also comforted Zhao Youlin.
“My daughter won’t end up in a state where everyone can bully her.
I’ll handle this matter and give you a result you’ll be satisfied with.
You don’t have to worry about it and just do whatever you need to do.”

Zhao Youlin looked at the two people who were considerate of her, and this was the first time in years she ever felt the warmth of being protected by a family.
Because of it, she felt that she had made the correct decision to have these people become her family members.

“Okay, I understand.” Zhao Youlin knew that there was no need for a family to make clear distinctions of who owed what to whom, so she just nodded obediently and readily accepted their goodwill.

Then, Duan Yarong switched topics with Zhao Youlin to talk about Joy’s daily life.
The atmosphere in the room instantly lightened, and it was no longer as grave as before.

After talking for a while with Duan Yarong, Zhao Youlin became much more relaxed.
Even when she went to work in the afternoon, she became more energetic than usual.

When it was close to the time she had to go back to work, Zhao Youlin went to the elevator that was made specifically for her floor, just like usual, but the moment the door was about to close, a hand shot out from outside to reach in.

At the same time, a rather familiar voice entered Zhao Youlin’s ears.
“Wait!”

The sensors in the door opened up once again because of this hand’s sudden appearance, even though it had nearly shut, thus abruptly revealing the two people on either side of the door.

“President, there’s still one elevator here that goes up—Ah, former Mrs.
President, why are you here?”

Zhao Youlin found herself speechless.
‘This is my company, if I’m not here, where else am I supposed to be? And what’s with calling me former Mrs.
President?!’
