Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Knock, knock, knock. A slightly urgent knock suddenly came from outside the office door, followed by a slightly anxious male voice. “Chief? Chief, is everything okay? Chief, can I come in?”

The sharp tip of the knife thrust through the office desk, less than five centimeters away from Zhao Youming’s face.

Looking at his own face reflected in the blade and imagining what could have happened if Zhao Yifei had aimed closer, cold sweat rolled down from Zhao Youming’s head.

The panicked look on Zhao Youming’s face greatly satisfied Zhao Yifei’s desire for vengeance. He chuckled and pulled the knife from the table with force. Then, he gently patted Zhao Youming’s face with the smooth blade.

After seeing Zhao Youming’s face had grown more and more pale, he smiled faintly and said, “Don’t worry. I won’t kill you now. Killing you like this is far too easy for you. Who do you think you are? How dare you attack me when I was hurt? Since you had the guts to do that, then just you wait and see. What happened to you today is just a warning to you. You’d better hire a bodyguard to protect you twenty-four-seven from now on. Otherwise, I might stab you anytime if you upset me again!”

After Zhao Youfei said that, his hand that was grabbing Zhao Youming’s hair flung back, putting Zhao Youming back to where he was standing before. He put away the knife and walked toward the exit.

The man outside was still pounding hard on the door. Zhao Yifei turned the lock open and pulled the door back. He immediately came face to face with the man who was raising his hand high.

He ignored the man’s almost panicked gaze. He snorted and walked past him, striding out of Zhao Youming’s office

The man was stunned for a while before he collected himself and quickly ran to the office. As soon as he entered the office, he saw Zhao Youming looking up at him from his desk, looking lost in thought.

“Chief, you are hurt!” The man exclaimed, pointing at the lump on Zhao Youming’s head that had turned blue.

“Get out.”

“What?” The man did not hear Zhao Youming. He continued to say with a worried look on his face, “Chief, the injury on your head looks serious. Do you want to...”

“I said get out!” Zhao Youming’s face contorted with rage. He raised his hand and swept all the things on his desk to the floor.

It was the first time the man had seen Zhao Youming so furious, so he froze in place until Zhao Youming’s icy gaze swept over him again. He recovered himself instantly and said in a panic, “I will go now.”

“Out!”

The man rushed out of the office. Looking at the empty desk, Zhao Youming’s face turned incredibly dark. After a moment, he fell back and sat back in his chair. He closed his eyes to hide the deep hatred beneath his eyes!

Zhao Youlin did not know what had happened on Zhao Youming’s side. Even if she knew, she would probably clap and cheer, and lament it as a dog-eat-dog world.

Zhao Youlin was not clear about the further development of the matter of Su He and Ye Yan because she had not heard anything about them at all since that day, and she was not in the position to pry.

However, for her, no news is good news. At least the calm and peaceful situation meant that the Su family did not yet intend to really make a move on Ye Yan.

On this day, both Zhao Youlin and Joy had the day off. They kept their promise to Duan Yarong and the others that they would go home and visit them if they had time during the weekend.

Early in the morning, Zhao Youlin was ready to take Joy home. Mu Tingfeng and Su Ruixin happened to have nothing to do, so they offered to go with them.

Zhao Youlin hesitated for a moment, but she did not turn them down.

It had been a week since Duan Yarong had last seen Joy. She hugged him immediately the moment she saw him and gave him a few kisses on his cheek.

Joy did not resist it. He obediently accepted Duan Yarong’s enthusiasm and called out, “Grandma..”

“Have you forgotten again, Joy? You should call me Grandma Yarong now.” Duan Yarong said with a smile as she pinched Joy’s soft little face.

When Joy was still living in Zhao Residence, it was fine that he could just call her grandma and Zhao Shunrong grandpa. Now that Zhao Youlin was married and stayed with the Mu family, it was time to change the way Joy addressed them.

When Zhao Youlin brought Joy back before, Duan Yarong had already told the boy, but Joy had gotten used to addressing them as grandpa and grandma. He forgot to change it for now.

Joy stared at her with his big and innocent eyes. He did not understand why he suddenly needed to address them differently, but he still nodded obediently and called out, “Grandma Yarong.”

“Good boy, Joy! I have asked my kitchen to make you your favorite snacks. Would you like to have some, Joy?”

As soon as Joy heard that there were snacks to eat, he immediately stopped dwelling on the issue. His eyes lit up slightly as he hugged Duan Yarong’s neck cheerfully and shouted, “Yes!”

The adults were immediately amused by his gluttonous look. Only then could Duan Yarong shift her attention to greet others.

“Ruixin, Tingfeng, you guys came too. Stay and have lunch with us. The house hasn’t been so lively since Youlin and Joy moved out.”

Su Ruixin and Mu Tingfeng had come with Zhao Youlin to hang out with them. When they heard Duan Yarong’s invitation, they just accepted it.

After spending some time with Duan Yarong, as if he had suddenly remembered something, Joy looked up and asked, “Grandma Yarong, where is An.. Where is Aunt An Yue?”

Duan Yarong was amused. She pinched Joy’s round face and said, “What a surprise. You still remember Aunt An Yue.”

Zhao Youlin was looking from beside them. She laughed as well when she heard that. She exposed what Joy really had in his mind without hesitation. “This brat here is thinking about those snacks his aunt made for him.”

The adults were a little stunned before they burst out in laughter. “Hahahaha..”

Joy did not quite understand what they were laughing at, but he understood that they were laughing at him. He immediately pouted unhappily.

Seeing his reaction, the adults laughed even louder. In the end, it was Duan Yarong who stopped first. Looking at Joy’s pitiful expression that looked like he was going to cry, Duan Yarong held back her laughter. She patted Joy’s little head and said, “Your aunt is in the kitchen. She knew you were coming today, so she has been busy making snacks for you in the kitchen since early morning.”

Upon hearing that, a smile returned to Joy’s face instantly. He stood up excitedly and said, “I’m going to the kitchen to see her.”

Duan Yarong chuckled. She patted Joy’s head and said, “Go on.”

The adults stared at Joy’s back as he left merrily. There were traces of resignation and endearment in their eyes.

“Looks like Joy really likes your daughter-in-law.” Su Ruixin said with envy.

“Yueyue is good at making snacks. Children are gluttonous. It’s not surprising that they love her..” Despite saying that, there was pride in Duan Yarong’s tone when she talked about An Yue.
