Chapter 49: Who Is Really at the Amusement Park?
Chen Fan was so pleased with himself right now that it was as if the wind followed his every step. His expression was one of pure smugness.
His gaze toward Zhu Yeqing was becoming increasingly ambiguous, which made Zhu Yeqing’s back shiver.
This guy … Should I just give you money to go find someone else? I only want revenge, I never intended to fall in love with you. Seriously.
From reading the diary these past few days, Zhu Yeqing had figured out the general direction of her plotline. It was pretty clear now.
First came the revenge, then sacrificing her body, followed by hatred toward Chen Fan, and in the end, she’d fall in love with him. She’d destroy the Chen family, but also herself, ending up in a lonely and desolate state.
In the end, Chen Fan still wouldn’t love her. His love was only for Lin Qingyue.
Stop looking at me, look at someone else. I can’t do this! I … I have my period every day!*
[*TN: Just a comedic comment made over the internet to jilt or reject advances from a partner.]“Driver, head to Qincheng Amusement Park in a bit.”
“Young master, the amusement park is closed.”
“No worries, just drive over. You don’t need to handle anything else. I just want to take in the view.”
Why was Chen Fan going to the amusement park? Chen Fan didn’t know either. The novel didn’t provide a reason. It was probably because when the protagonist was tormenting the villain, the villain just had to show up.
You have no choice but to appear.
“Young master … I’m not feeling well.”
“Eh? Not feeling well? Alright, you can head back then.”
So strange, why is she so nervous?
Zhu Yeqing got out of the car and ran away immediately. She was a bit scared now. She didn’t dare face it. She really didn’t dare.
There was plenty of time, so Chen Fan calmly closed his eyes in the backseat to rest. He’d just wait. In a little while, he’d deliver his lines and go home, mission accomplished.
Meanwhile, at the bar, the secretary and Ye Aotian were having a great time. After all, a woman who took initiative was hard for any man to resist.
The secretary didn’t actually have much screen time. Her full name wasn’t even mentioned; people only knew her as Xiao Lan. Ye Aotian didn’t care much to ask either. He just felt like tonight, he needed someone to share his victorious joy with.
Xiao Lan coming along was no issue. After all, eventually, this woman would share his success with Lin Qingyue.
But the reason the novel didn’t elaborate on Xiao Lan was because she wasn’t a virgin.
After all, in novels, female leads usually remained “pure,” though there were exceptions. Generally, those exceptions involved a beautiful mother and an equally beautiful daughter, while the father ended up disabled or something later on.
In short, such women must be those who haven’t had contact with men for a long time or something like that.
Inside the bar, Xiao Lan was a bit tipsy, but still somewhat conscious.
“It’s getting a bit noisy.”
“Mhm, let’s take a walk. Where would you like to go? You’ve helped me so much; just say the word, and I’ll make it happen.”
“Can you … take me to the amusement park?”
“Sure, but why the amusement park?”
“I … When I was little, I always wanted to go, but never had the chance. When I grew up and finally wanted to go, I felt too old for it. It would be embarrassing. You don’t mind, do you?”
“Not at all.”
Ye Aotian drove Xiao Lan out of the bar and headed to the amusement park. After they got out of the car and saw the locked gates, Ye Aotian didn’t hesitate. He gave the gatekeeper some money, and the old man let them in.
“So strange, it’s quite lively tonight. Why do so many people want to come to the amusement park?”
The old man repeated this twice.
The first time was when Chen Fan came in. The second time was when Lin Qingyue entered. Having pocketed some cash, the old man was satisfied and went to rest. But soon, there was another knock at the door.
“What’s going on?”
“Let me in. I want to play at the amusement park for a while.”
Looking at Jin Lan standing in front of him, the old man was confused. Are you all here to play mahjong inside? Never mind, it’s not my business. It’s not like late-night dates here are uncommon.
The old man understood the situation.
Jin Lan handed him some money and walked into the amusement park, slowly disappearing into the shadows under the moonlight.
At this point, Xiao Lan was playing around like a child. Meanwhile, Chen Fan was watching from afar. He still needed to wait a bit. After all, the male and female lead had to develop their feelings a little. Once they were deep into their emotions, he’d show up, get beaten up, and then fully embrace his dark transformation.
Yes, that’s when he’d love Lin Qingyue with a mix of passion and resentment. The plot would become even more intense and outrageous. Kidnappings, imprisonment—he’d be able to do it all.
But turning evil required building up emotions.
Hiding in the bushes, Chen Fan pulled out some sunflower seeds and began snacking as he watched the scene.
How exciting.
[My god, it’s about to start! Holy crap, this is intense. I have to say, the male and female lead really know how to play.]
[Little do they know, Daddy here is watching everything from the bushes.]
[Holy crap, why does it feel like this woman doesn’t seem like Lin Qingyue? Am I imagining things?]
“Give me some sunflower seeds.”
“Sure … Holy crap, you motherfu—mmmph!” Chen Fan was suddenly silenced by Jin Lan covering his mouth.
“You … Why are you here?”
“I followed you because you weren’t paying attention to me. What’s wrong? Are you suspicious of me?”
‘I don’t know. My father told me to stay away from you.’
No real reason, just made one up on the spot.
Jin Lan chuckled and said, “What are you watching?”
“They’re on a date. This pair of scumbags. Just wait, I’m definitely going to strangle Ye Aotian.”
“Give me some sunflower seeds. Don’t be so stingy. Let me watch too. Didn’t you say that Ye Aotian is someone I cultivated? Let me see what my trainee is really made of.”
Hey, that’s not right. We’re supposed to be half-enemies here. Don’t go overboard. I’m warning you. Forget it, whatever. Damn it, Jin Lan showing up here is just absurd.
“Give me some.”
Just as Chen Fan and Jin Lan were watching intently, another voice startled them.
Chen Fan and Jin Lan were both shocked.
Lin Qingyue crouched down beside Chen Fan.
“I … Holy crap, a ghost—mmmph!”
Lin Qingyue and Jin Lan covered Chen Fan’s mouth at the same time.
“What are you screaming for? Am I that ugly?”
You … You’re here. Then who’s that inside?!
