Chapter 153: 153: Can You Stop It_1
I hesitated for a few seconds, in the end, deciding not to answer his call.
Why am I always adjusting to accommodate him? He’s too spoiled!
Seeing me reject the call, Wenya gave me a thumbs up.
“You’re amazing! So, you’re really standing up to him now?”
Since Ding Yinuo is not here, I also mentioned the business plan to Wenya.
After hearing this, Wenya scoffed.
“Damn that Gu Yuanzhou! Just looking at that man’s face, his eyes, you can tell he’s a ruthless person!”
I remained silent.
“But the Ding Family, aren’t they not that bad? I know they have a wide network, deep roots, they can’t be easily brought down by him.”
Wenya still had faith in Ding Yinuo.
But I was really worried.
If there was fair competition, Gu Yuanzhou could indeed be a match for the Ding Family.
But the key point was that Gu Yuanzhou was acting with a do-or-die attitude, the consequences were unimaginable.
“Could you stop it?”
Wenya asked me again.
“I don’t know, I can only try my best to resolve this matter. But whether Gu Yuanzhou will listen, I don’t know.”
“Has there been any progress on the poisoning case with your aunt?”
“Right now the main suspect is driver Old Ma, we’ll soon know the result.”
“So, if one day, Gu Yuanzhou forces you to go against Ding Yinuo, would you actually do it?”
“Is this even a question?”
Wenya patted my arm, “Ayun, you need to think carefully about why you got a second life. Think it through!”
It was the first time I had ever had a hard time understanding Wenya’s roundabout way of speaking.
But isn’t my second life to uncover the truth of the fire and to punish Gu Yuanzhou’s betrayal?
In the afternoon, Wenya and I stayed in Jiang Jing’s hospital room, the three of us played games together and Jian Jing’s mood gradually brightened up.
I again ordered a chicken soup meal online for Jian Jing, for her dinner.
“Jian Jing, do you know why your mother-in-law would do this?”
Jian Jing thought for a long time,
“I’ve figured it out, actually, her attitude towards me before the wedding wasn’t this bad! Now that we’re married and she’s behaving this way, I know what her objective is. She’s pressuring me, trying to force me to transfer the property to her, she’s waiting for me to give in.”
“So what do you think?”
“I don’t know, before the wedding, I thought I could handle it, but now, I feel like I can’t hold on anymore…”
“Jian Jing, you absolutely must not give in. Some people just love to push their luck. If you back down this time, who knows what unreasonable demands they’ll come up with next time. This kind of treatment is just cold violence. It’s simply too much.”
“Yes, I know!”
At six in the evening, just as I was about to leave, Ding Yinuo came to see me.
“Off work?”
I saw he had already taken off his white coat and changed into a blue suit, looking refreshed and handsome.
Ding Yinuo looked at his wristwatch,
“Are you free later?”
“If I remember correctly, ballet lessons are on the weekend!”
“Not that, a kid at home is having a birthday, would you go with me if you’re free?”
“My little niece, who was in a car accident and became a vegetable and has been in a coma for a whole year. Just last month, she miraculously woke up. Today is her birthday, and the family is getting together.”
Ding Yinuo casually showed me a photo of the little girl on his phone.
I was somewhat shocked at first glance because this child looked very much like my deceased daughter, Xiaoyi.
Originally, I had no interest in this birthday party, but to visit this poor little girl, I decided to go.
Ding Yinuo and I together, we bought a birthday cake, flowers…
This was also my first time visiting the Ding Family home.
Though it was a child’s birthday, all the relatives of the Ding Family were present.
The scene was very lively with balloons and ribbons decorating the house.
Before the black piano, a six or seven-year-old girl was sitting. She was wearing a blue Elsa princess dress, her hair in pigtails, and wearing a birthday crown on her head.
From the side, she was very pretty and gentle.
The melodious sound of the piano flowed from her nimble fingers, and she was playing a song I liked, “For Alice”.
The reason I like this song is that my darling daughter, Xiaoyi, played it best.
During those happy times, I would hold my second child while the eldest played the piano in the living room.
For a moment, I felt somewhat dazed.
Until Ding Yinuo pulled me back to reality.
“Ayun, stay calm!”
His low reminder brought me back to the present.
Only then did I realize that I had unknowingly walked to the little girl and nearly reached out to hug her.
“Sorry, I was a bit rude!”
“It’s alright, wipe your tears!”
“Do I have tears?”
“What do you think!”
He handed me a tissue, I took my phone to look at myself, sure enough, my tears were still hanging on my eyelashes.
Fortunately, everyone was busy chatting and no one noticed my abnormal behavior.
Afterwards, Ding Yinuo took my hand and led me to the inner hall.
Introduced his family to me…
“This is my dad, my mom… and my older brother! You’ve met my older brother before, right?!”
“Hello aunt and uncle, hello Manager Ding! Yes, I’ve met Manager Ding before. Manager Ding is a very successful businessman.”
Ding Yinuo’s older brother, Ding Xiao, is much older than him, and is now a mature middle-aged man. I’ve had dealings with him before.
“Oh right, her name is Song Xiaoyun, and she is my… cough, you understand.”
When he said this, he firmly held my hand, fingers intertwined, I couldn’t get away.
Ding Xiao coughed lightly,
“Second brother, why are you so inarticulate today, what do you mean?”
Ding Yinuo looked at me and smiled, then directly put his arm around my shoulder, pulling me into his embrace.
Finally, Ding’s mother laughed and said to Ding Xiao,
“This is the first time your younger brother has brought a girl home. She must be the most important person in his life, otherwise he wouldn’t bring her home to meet us. Xiaosong, right? Please sit down!”
Ding’s mother was dressed in a lake-green cheongsam, her hair done up and her smile was gentle. At a glance, she looked like a graceful and dignified housewife.
She was very personable and had high emotional intelligence. Sitting here, I felt like a welcome guest.
Ding’s mother brewed flower tea, and we chatted casually.
I hadn’t expected that I would interact with the family of the man who had been my nemesis for most of my life and yet, it felt so comfortable and pleasant.
Although Ding Yinuo said he asked me here to celebrate his niece’s birthday,
I had a feeling it wasn’t that simple.
Judging by the way the Ding family treated me, he seemed to have another intention.
Just as I was chatting with Ding’s mother, suddenly the little girl ran up to me and shouted, “Mommy!”
