“Dad, I’m not…”
Lin Langsheng watched the television with a calm gaze, but his words continued, “Not what, not what. I know your little pride. I’m telling you, it’s a good thing Ye Longlin doesn’t mind your temper. You’re always talking about him, look how spoiled you are.”
“Longlin dedicated his youth to the army, shouldering the vast skies of our motherland with his shoulders. As his wife, you should be proud of him.”
Lin Tianai suddenly felt wronged. She didn’t mean it that way at all. She called Ye Longlin just to explain and to inquire about the contract.
Instead, she was lectured.
But after thinking about it, Lin Tianai remained firm in her decision. Why should she explain to him? Why shouldn’t he explain to me?
“Think whatever you want.”
Lin Tianai, holding the documents, returned to her room with a touch of annoyance.
Lin Langsheng just shook his head. As if remembering something, he turned and called out to the second floor, “I told you to move to Yun Jin Tiandi today, why haven’t you gone yet? Do you really want me to kick you out?”
Lin Tianai, just as she entered her room, heard these words and couldn’t help but walk out to ask, “Dad, you’re not serious, are you? You’re really making me move there!”
“Do you think I’m joking? I’ll give you half an hour to pack your things. If you’re still at home after that, don’t blame me for kicking you out.”
Sensing the firmness in Lin Langsheng’s tone, Lin Tianai sighed and finally had to pack her things quickly.
After returning to Star City, Ye Longlin and Yuan Gang first arranged for Cao Fanghua before heading back to Yun Jin Tiandi.
“Boss, I can’t stay here anymore. I need to go back and be with my mother.”
Yuan Gang said apologetically. Staying here would allow him to report any issues promptly.
Ye Longlin patted his shoulder and smiled, “Alright, no need to say more. I understand. Take good care of your mother. It wasn’t easy raising you, and now it’s time for her to enjoy her old age.”
After saying a few more words of advice, he left.
Lighting a cigarette and looking at the cold, silent living room, a sense of loneliness washed over him.
Actually, he quite liked this feeling.
“Knock, knock, knock.”
Just as he sat down, he heard a knock on the door.
He thought it was Yuan Gang returning, but when he opened the door, it was Lin Tianai!
She was carrying a suitcase.
Ye Longlin calmly asked, “Is something wrong?”
Lin Tianai walked in as if it were natural, sat on the sofa, and gave him a cold glance, “My dad asked me to move in with you. I couldn’t refuse.”
“From today onwards, I live on the second floor, you live on the first floor. You are not allowed to come to the second floor without my permission.”
Ye Longlin frowned, “Why?”
Lin Tianai, with an air of entitlement, crossed her arms, “Because my family paid for this place.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Longlin returned to his room, took out a leather suitcase, pocketed his phone, and prepared to leave.
“What are you doing?” Lin Tianai asked, confused.
“I’m leaving. You can live however you want.”
His tone remained calm, devoid of any emotion.
Lin Tianai also felt upset, like punching cotton, soft and powerless.
She couldn’t help but stand up, gritting her teeth, and said, “Ye Longlin! Is living with me so shameful? Why are you leaving as soon as I arrive? Did I offend you somehow?”
As she spoke, she clenched her small fists.
For this young lady to agree to live with you is already a great fortune, and now you want to leave as soon as I arrive?
Where do you put me?
Perhaps… it was because of her beauty. She was treated with courtesy wherever she went. But ever since Ye Longlin appeared, he seemed to not even put her in his eyes. This feeling made Lin Tianai feel extremely aggrieved.
“I just don’t like living under the same roof with a woman. Since you want to live here, I’ll leave.”
Hearing this, Lin Tianai gritted her teeth even harder, wishing she could tear Ye Longlin apart.
“My dad asked me to move in with you, not to live alone!”
Ye Longlin paused, and said playfully, “Anyway, Uncle Lin won’t know if you live here alone.”
After marriage, he still called him Uncle Lin. Lin Langsheng actually knew this. He hadn’t accepted them yet, perhaps only when he started calling him ‘Dad’ would they truly be accepted.
After speaking, Ye Longlin left, enraging Lin Tianai, who stomped her feet in the living room in a fit of helpless fury.
In the end, he returned to the villa on Lake Island.
“Trouble is trouble, after all.”
After some thought, he called Zhang Xiao.
“Help me prepare a large flat, one that can be lived in.”
Zhang Xiao: “Understood.”
At the same time, a person Lin Tianai had not expected arrived at the Yun Jin Tiandi villa.
Across from her sat a handsome and distinguished man. Even though he sat there without speaking, he exuded an awe-inspiring aura.
“Miss Lin, we met briefly last time, and I didn’t get Mr. Ye’s contact information. Could you let me know when Mr. Ye will be back?”
Sitting opposite her was Bai Ze, from the Bai family, one of the four prominent families in Star City!
The Bai family was a distinguished family with considerable influence within the capital. Bai Ze, being the sole remaining descendant of the Bai family, was naturally considered a dream man by many.
However, no one had ever managed to capture Bai Ze’s attention.
When Lin Tianai heard his words, her expression froze, and she forced an awkward laugh, “May I ask what business Young Master Bai has with Ye Longlin?”
Bai Ze smiled slightly and said nothing more, merely sipping his tea.
Seeing his silence, Lin Tianai gritted her teeth and said, “If you have something to say, you can tell me. I’ll relay it to Ye Longlin when he gets back.”
Bai Ze remained silent for a moment, then stood up and said, “In that case, this is my business card. If Mr. Ye returns, please ask him to contact me. Thank you.”
With that, he left. Lin Tianai fell into silence.
What exactly was going on?
Why would a young master like Bai Ze actively seek out Ye Longlin, and so politely at that?
“This doesn’t make sense.”
“Ye Longlin, besides being good at fighting, is also good at fighting. What capability does he have to impress Young Master Bai?”
After thinking about it, she dialed Ye Longlin’s number, only to have him reject the call.
“Bastard! Ye Longlin, you bastard!”
