Chapter 138 - 138: The Strange Ye Mao
Chu Qing acknowledged that the word “humiliation” didn’t suit him. He didn’t perceive himself as being at a disadvantage. However, even if his parents held such a belief, he understood that he couldn’t change their perspective.
If that really happened, he didn’t care. His parents would definitely be sad, so for the sake of his parents, he could only suppress his thoughts for the time being.
However, it was impossible for him to avoid his so-called fiancee because of this. This was not Chu Qing’s style.
Therefore, although Chu Qing comforted his father, he had already made up his mind to meet his so-called fiancee when he returned tonight. This was the first time Chu Qing had heard about the Gong family. They were probably not weaker than the Chu family, or even stronger than them. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have let the Chu family’s son marry into their family.
After hanging up, Chu Qing was in an excited state during his afternoon studies. He was already looking forward to his meeting with his fiancee tonight.
If he embarrassed that young lady of the Gong family at night, let’s see how she would have the face to propose marriage to him. Chu Qing had the urge to vent all the grievances he had suffered from Tang Ziyan on this “fiancee”.
This state lasted until school ended. After the bell rang, Chu Qing grabbed his bag and was about to run out when someone suddenly shouted his name from behind. “Chu Qing, wait.”
It was Ye Mao. Chu Qing turned around and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“My Sis wants to see you,” Ye Mao said.
“Huh?” Chu Qing was stunned. Shouldn’t Ye Chenxi look for him directly for this kind of thing? Why would she let Ye Mao pass the message and not tell him earlier or later, but only tell him after school? Wasn’t this too much of a coincidence?
Ye Mao understood Chu Qing’s doubts. He raised his phone and explained, “I just found out about the message.”
“Alright then.” To Chu Qing, Ye Chenxi was much more important than his fiancee.
After Ye Mao packed his bag, he and Chu Qing walked out of the classroom together. On the way, Ye Mao asked Chu Qing, “Are you going to be my brother-in-law?”
“Yes, you don’t want to?”
“No, no. Then we will be family from now on.” Ye Mao smiled brightly.
“It’s not ‘we’. It’s you and me,” Chu Qing emphasized. Ye Mao clearly meant that Chu Qing was marrying into the Ye family.
“Isn’t that the same?” Ye Mao didn’t care about this. His eyes were shining, and it was unimown what he was planning.
“It’s different,” Chu Qing said seriously.
“Alright, let’s not talk about this.” Ye Mao changed the topic and asked, “Are you still Tang Ziyan’s boyfriend?”
“Tang Ziyan is my girlfriend.” Chu Qing was still emphasizing.
“Why are you speaking so strangely?” Ye Mao couldn’t stand it anymore.
Chu Qing was left speechless. Did he really have to explain to Ye Mao that a man could be killed but not humiliated? He knew that Ye Mao would likely perceive him as being crazy if he attempted to convey such a sentiment.
“If you marry my Sis, what will happen to Tang Ziyan?” Ye Mao probed, his eyes darting around.
Chu Qing raised his eyebrows. Why did he hear that there was a hidden meaning in Ye Mao’s words? “I haven’t even become your brother-in-law, and you’re already defending your sister?”
“No, no, 1 was just asking.” Ye Mao tried his best to deny it and was a little flustered..
