Chapter 897: Prelude To His Chagrin. Ling Yichen’s Arrival
From the beginning of her appearance to this moment, Yun Jian gave the vibe of a quiet person. That was why everyone felt oddly astonished when Yun Jian parried what Zhang Guodong said to her.
Before they could react further, Yun Jian countered again. “Are you my mom or my dad? Why do I have to report these to you? Besides, will you believe it when I tell you?”
Yun Jian hit the nail on the head.
Firstly, who was Zhang Guodong, and who was he to Yun Jian? Why should she report what she had done to him? Secondly, would he believe her if she had told him? The answer was no.
Zhang Guodong himself said that Yun Jian had claimed to shut Beiguang Model Agency down the last time they talked about it. From his earlier tone, however, everyone could hear that he did not believe Yun Jian.
Yun Jian’s riposte silenced Zhang Guodong for he was speechless to fight back.
Zhang Guodong lost his barbed attitude from Yun Jian’s sharp snaps but he suppressed it and planned to give it back to Yun Jian harsher the next opportunity he got.
“Alright, alright. That’s enough, let’s eat!” Seeing that the atmosphere was off, Chen Zhenchuan spoke up immediately to mediate the situation.
This was after all a dinner he had invited Yun Jian to with the purpose of thanking her for saving Chen Xinyi. If Yun Jian were to quarrel with Zhang Guodong, it would sour the event instead of it being a token of thanks to Yun Jian.
Under such circumstances, Chen Zhenchuan found it necessary to stop them.
“Coming up, here, the last dish. Have a taste, everyone. I’ve made these personally!” Chen Xinyi’s mother, He Shiya, came out from the kitchen.
A few housekeepers followed behind He Shiya as they served the dishes to each table.
He Shiya was the one who prepared the dinner tonight. She looked sophisticated and polished but she had learned how to cook. What she made could actually compare to the chefs of four-star hotels. It was just that she rarely stepped into the kitchen after getting married to Chen Zhenchuan and giving birth to Chen Xinyi.
Wanting to thank Yun Jian and the boys sincerely, it was why He Shiya cooked again today.
“My mom’s dishes are delicious. Jianjian, try them. Ignore those lunatics! We’ll enjoy the feast!” Annoyed with Zhang Guodong since a long time ago, Chen Xinyi’s tone was vexed now that she heard the man talking to Yun Jian like that.
“Yup, that’s right! Master, have a taste!” Zhang Shaofeng chorused.
“Mn.” Yun Jian nodded with a smile.
Simultaneously, Zhang Jian could barely rest his mouth.
Just as Yun Jian had two large juicy shrimps, someone came in through the door belatedly. When they looked over to the person, they realized that it was Ling Yichen.
Ling Yichen’s father was family friends with Chen Xinyi’s father, so it was not surprising to see the playboy here. Since he had been preparing for a competition previously, it had been a while since he showed himself in front of Yun Jian and friends.
Furthermore, he was in a different class from the three of them, so Yun Jian had not seen him for a long time.
“Hey, you guys are already starting! I’m late, I came late, haha!” Ling Yichen said as he jogged over to Yun Jian and friends.
“You actually managed to squeeze out some free time?” Zhang Shaofeng teased no matter who it was but more so when Ling Yichen was quite close to them from spending time together previously.
