My Dangerous Billionaire Husband - Chapter 789

Chapter 789: Who Was He Waiting For?

Seeing him, Leng Zhiyuan was stunned for a long time. “Ye… Ziyi, why are you…back?”

Ye Ziyi smiled warmly. “Zhiyuan, what kind of question is that? Hong Kong is half my hometown. I come here and walk around whenever I have time. I just came back this afternoon, but I didn’t expect to meet you so coincidentally. You have changed a lot.”

Changed?

Leng Zhiyuan looked down at herself and her dark clothes. She did not dress like a woman at all. It was the same as many years ago. She was antisocial and always dressed like a boy. Her classmates would give her weird looks, but she did not care at all, until one day he appeared…

He was so warm and elegant, just like Prince Charming descending from the sky. Because of him, she learned what inferiority was…

She felt that her face was a little red. She raised her hand and hooked a strand of hair on her cheek behind her ear. She pursed her red lips and laughed softly. “Have I become…even uglier?”

“No, Zhiyuan, you have become beautiful, really very beautiful.”

Hearing his praise, she looked up at him. Ye Ziyi’s eyes were as warm as his personality. When he praised people this sincerely, he seemed very gentle.

The gentleness of a man.

Leng Zhiyuan put both her hands in front of her body and looked away shyly. She looked at the neon lamps along the street and laughed.

Ye Ziyi was also laughing.

A street away, Zhou Yao looked at the two people over there. He almost doubted his eyesight. The woman was always so wild in front of him, but in front of the man in the white sweater, she even played with her hair and was laughing…

He did not know that she could act so girly, shy, and bashful.

She seemed like a completely different person.

It was as if the man in the white sweater was a sugar-coated hawthorn.

Zhou Yao felt that all his blood was rushing into his brain, which was a strange feeling. He was angry and…jealous, like someone lit a fire in his heart and was burning him whole.

Who is that man?

What relationship does she have with him?

Old sweetheart?

After slapping him, she ran out to have a date with another man. What did she take him for?

Zhou Yao turned around two times on the spot, then angrily took out his cell phone from his pocket. He dialed the familiar phone number.

The mobile phone in Leng Zhiyuan’s pocket rang soon after. She took it out and saw that it was Zhou Yao again.

The smile on her mouth faded, and she was a little dazed.

“Zhiyuan, Zhiyuan…” Ye Ziyi was calling her.

“Eh?” She returned to her senses and looked up in a hurry.

“Zhiyuan, what’s the matter with you? I’ve been saying your name so many times, but you have not responded. Who is calling? Why don’t you answer it?” Ye Ziyi looked at her mobile phone and asked in concern.

“Oh, nothing, it’s a friend…” She turned around and picked up the call, “Hello…”

“Hello, where are you now?” The man’s tone was hard and blunt. He interrogated her the moment he opened his mouth.

Leng Zhiyuan’s expression went cold. “I have already said things clearly; it’s none of your business where I am now.”

“You!” Zhou Yao clenched his teeth. “I’ll ask you one last thing. Are you going to go back with me?”

“No! You can go. I don’t want to see you again!” She spit out merciless words.

“Well, that’s what you, Leng Zhiyuan, said. I will leave now. You think I care about you? Hmph!” He disconnected the call angrily.

Listening to the ding-ding sound on the other end, Leng Zhiyuan looked down at her toes. Just then, Ye Ziyi came forward and said, “Zhiyuan, have you finished talking on the phone? There are several good restaurants over there. I’ll treat you to supper. ”

Leng Zhiyuan looked back at Ye Ziyi. Sometimes, she felt that she was a joke. Didn’t she always like men like Ye Ziyi? Why would she like…Zhou Yao?

Zhou Yao and Ye Ziyi were two completely different people.

“OK, let’s go.” Leng Zhiyuan smiled faintly.

…

The soldiers in the army all knew that their Major General Zhou had a bad temper recently. When they’d made mistakes during training in the past, the Major General would kick them in the butt. Now, the Major General still kicked them, but he would kick them so hard that they would do double somersaults in the air. The soldiers were suffering in silence.

Zhou Yao was still smoking in the room. In the morning, when they opened the door to his room, the smoke smell would be choking, and the ground would be covered in discarded cigarette butts. Smoking was strictly forbidden in the army, so Chief Yang could not stand him anymore and directly put him in detention.

Zhou Yao didn’t argue, didn’t quarrel, didn’t talk. He was very at ease. He lay on the cold floor, swinging his crossed legs. Chief Yang looked at him and shook his head, not knowing what was wrong with him.

One day, an aide-de-camp came to the door and said, “Major General, I have finished checking what you asked me to check.”

A strand of grass hung at the corner of Zhou Yao’s mouth as he put his arms behind his head. His face was expressionless. “What is it?”

“That man’s name is Ye Ziyi. His history is quite complicated. He grew up in an orphanage and was very sensible from a young age. He helped the Dean organize and clean the house. His proactive performance finally paid off, and a large family adopted him.

“This big family was from Hong Kong. They then moved with Ye Ziyi and became…Sister-in-law’s neighbors. Sister-in-law and Ye Ziyi were two years apart, but in middle school, Ye Ziyi’s grades were excellent, and he played the piano well. He was sunny and handsome, and he quickly captured the hearts of girls throughout the school, becoming a publicly known upperclassman.

“Two years later, Ye Ziyi suddenly left Hong Kong because his biological father found him. It turns out that Ye Ziyi was the third son of the Ye family in the capital. The Ye family was huge. Mr. Ye married several concubines, and Ye Ziyi was born of humble origins, so he became a victim in the power-struggle between the first wife and concubines. Thus, he became an orphan. Maybe Ye Ziyi’s outstanding performance all these years impressed his father, so he took him back home.

“This Ye Ziyi is very meticulous. He is young and promising and has not disappointed anyone. He was admitted to a famous first-class school. After graduation, he entered the administration of the C government. Rumour has it that Ye Ziyi is a strong candidate for the next Supreme Commander of the C government. Even his father has the intention to give Ye Ziyi full authority over the Ye family. It’s said that now, even the two legitimate sons have to listen to Ye Ziyi.”

Zhou Yao listened quietly. This sounded like an inspirational legend. A commoner of a large family obtained a splendid future by his own ability and careful planning.

Ye Ziyi was only 27 years old, the same age as him. He really was an impressive character.

He sneered. That woman’s taste was not bad.

“Is Ye Ziyi married?”

“No, Ye Ziyi is still single. The rich ladies pestering him have been coming at him like flies, but he’s had no scandals. According to reports, he often goes to Hong Kong, I think he and Sister-in-law met coincidentally this time.”

Was it coincidental?

With Ye Ziyi’s background, he was 27 years old but unmarried. It’s not because of some shameful reason. It was because he was waiting for someone.

Who was he waiting for?
