My Dangerous Billionaire Husband - Chapter 916
Chapter 916: Major General Zhou Was Never Sullied
Han Xuan watched on as the gazes that were originally focused on her were easily snatched away by Leng Zhiyuan; Leng Zhiyuan had stolen all of her glory.
She thought that after she snatched Zhou Yao away, Leng Zhiyuan would feel extremely depressed for a long time. Outside the Civil Affairs Bureau yesterday, Leng Zhiyuan looked extremely silly, and she thought that Leng Zhiyuan would continue to be like that, but today, she emerged as a different person and actually managed to hook up with the Ye family.
She’d actually turned into Ye Ziyi’s official girlfriend!
Old Master Zhou looked at Leng Zhiyuan, who was standing in front of everyone. His cloudy eyes had deep pain and regret in them as he sighed, “Ay.” He sighed deeply before he left.
“Dad.” Master Zhou quickly went to support him.
Madam Zhou looked at Leng Zhiyuan and did not feel good. She drooped her head down glumly, then she left together with Old Master Zhou.
Han Xuan looked at the expressions of the family of three. How could she not see the regret that they had in their hearts? This kind of feeling was just like a pearl in her embrace had been snatched away by someone.
Han Xuan clenched her teeth.
At this moment, “Major General Zhou, Major General Zhou…” Someone came over to look for Zhou Yao.
Han Xuan turned her gaze over to the side to look at Zhou Yao. It was just as if Zhou Yao could not hear anyone. Since the first moment Leng Zhiyuan appeared, his gaze was fixed on Leng Zhiyuan, and it was unable to be shifted away.
Some rich ladies who loved to gossip looked over at Zhou Yao before their gossipy gazes fell onto Han Xuan’s face.
Han Xuan’s face was pale. She quickly stretched her hand out to tug Zhou Yao’s sleeve as she said, “Hubby…”
Zhou Yao slowly withdrew his gaze. There were no expressions on his face, but there was still gentleness in the bottom of his eyes. He looked over at Han Xuan, and his gaze instantly became cold.
He did not say anything but just looked at her like that.
The rich ladies were staring at him on this side. Zhou Yao’s gaze became icy cold. Han Xuan instantly felt like a clown, and she was the only one bitterly upholding this fake image.
“Hubby, I am hungry,” she lied.
Zhou Yao glanced over at Leng Zhiyuan again. Ye Ziyi was saying something to her as he lowered his gaze. Both of their heads were leaning against one another, and they looked to be very close.
He withdrew his gaze and gently closed his thick eyelashes. When his eyelashes cast down on his handsome face, they left a lonely shadow. He stretched his hand out to push the wheelchair. He did not say a single word as he pushed Han Xuan over to the dining table.
…
The people by his side gradually dispersed. Ye Ziyi lowered his head. He bent down by the side of Leng Zhiyuan’s ear as he softly asked her, “Zhiyuan, I told them that you are my girlfriend. You don’t mind, right?”
Leng Zhiyuan raised her thin eyebrows and jokingly said, “Director Ye, isn’t it too late to be asking me whether I mind now that you have already said it?”
Ye Ziyi had a gentle smile on his face as he said, “Zhiyuan, you are really so beautiful today.”
“Yeah, thank you.”
Ye Xiaotao watched her Third Older Brother and Older Sister Leng interact with one another intimately, and she felt very happy inside. When she’d first met Older Sister Leng, she did not know that Older Sister Leng was already married. She’d always wished for Older Sister Leng to be her third sister-in-law because she felt that Third Older Brother was very compatible with Older Sister Leng.
But…
She was also frustrated, if Older Sister Leng really married Third Older Brother, how would their ranks be counted then? Older Sister Leng would become her Third Older Sister-in-law, but she was already Older Sister Leng’s Older Sister-in-law.
Ye Xiaotao thought hard and could not get the ranking right. She would just forget about it. She did not want to think about it.
Ye Ziyi just mingled with someone else. Ye Xiaotao quickly ran over to Leng Zhiyuan’s side and said, “Older Sister Leng, I am so happy that you could come and attend this banquet. My Daddy likes you very much, too.”
Leng Zhiyuan had a glance at Ye Xiaotao. How could she not tell what this young girl was thinking? She was afraid that she had to disappoint Ye Xiaotao.
“Xiao Tao, eat something.” Leng Zhiyuan handed a small piece of cake over to her and blocked her mouth.
Ye Xiaotao had a bite of cake. She was very satisfied, and the moment she turned her gaze over to the side, she saw both Zhou Yao and Han Xuan in front of her. Zhou Yao was surrounded by two men, and those two men were chatting happily. Zhou Yao had both hands in his pockets, and she did not know whether he was listening or not, but he looked very haughty.
Ye Xiaotao sighed out inside her heart. Actually, she also liked Major General Zhou a lot. That handsome and proper man seemed to look very stern and powerful in front of others, but before Older Sister Leng, he would smile warmly, and in the past, when she barged into their room, she saw him pressing Older Sister Leng down on the bed. Tat scene made…her throat go dry.
But, Major General Zhou got married with the most cunning bitch whom she hated the most, and Ye Xiaotao was unable to forgive him for that at all.
Ye Xiaotao looked at Han Xuan. Han Xuan was seated down in the wheelchair. There were a few socialites by her side. They were mingling with one another very fakely. Ye Xiaotao raised her eyebrows. She was nonchalant as she snorted, “Older Sister Leng, look at how that bitch Han is behaving. She just knows how to act. I am unable to eat my cake anymore.”
Leng Zhiyuan knew that Zhou Yao and Han Xuan were there. From the first moment she entered the door, she knew there were some people, some back profiles that were deeply engraved in her bones, and even if they turned into ash, she would be able to recognize them.
She turned her gaze over to the side to look at Zhou Yao. He was turned sideways as he stood up straight. He was handsome and charming. She withdrew her gaze quickly and said, “Xiao Tao, let’s not talk about other people.”
“Why not?” Ye Xiaotao did not understand, and she widened her eyes. She pouted her pink lips, and they were stained with a little cream. She looked so cute that she made others want to bite her as she said, “Then what is the point of us having a mouth?”
Leng Zhiyuan: “…Could it be for us to gossip?”
“Of course. As we live, if others do not gossip about us, isn’t it a failure on our part? if we do not gossip about others, wouldn’t it be very boring?”
As she looked at Ye Xiaotao’s bold expression, Leng Zhiyuan wanted to laugh. Okay then. She did not say anything else.
“Older Sister Leng, when I look at how that bitch Han acts, I want to vomit. Look at her laugh. After being Mrs. Zhou, she must be very happy right? Shameless, pathetic thief!
“Older Sister Leng, Major General Zhou married that bitch Han, and that bitch Han is living in the Zhou home now. Do you think Major General Zhou has been sullied or not? Have they slept with one another?”
As she spoke, Ye Xiaotao threw the cake away and used her hands to cup her face. She used strength to shake her head as she said, “This won’t do. This won’t do! I cannot imagine that scene. It is way too…disgusting.”
Leng Zhiyuan slowly turned her gaze over to the side, and she looked over at Zhou Yao.
The moment she looked over, it was only then that she found out that Zhou Yao was also looking at her.
Their gazes met in mid air.
His gaze was very intense and very gentle. He probably did not expect her to look at him, so the moment she looked over, his dark gaze became extremely bright…
Leng Zhiyuan could vaguely see that red string beneath his white shirt. He had been wearing it all this time.
But her neck was empty because she’d removed that platinum necklace.
Leng Zhiyuan withdrew her gaze.
Zhou Yao noticed her looking away, and he slowly curled his lips up into a self-mocking smile.
…
The meeting of their gazes was noticed by a few women. They were all jealous and in admiration as they gossiped with one another —
“What Miss Man Yao? Who here would not know that she is Leng Zhiyuan, the one who got into a fake marriage with Major General Zhou.”
