Chapter 91 - 1. Long time no see (1/2)
“He Yi, help me ask Fang Yu if he’s true to me! If he doesn’t want to marry me, I’ll… break up with him!”
When Wei Jiameng said this, He Yi was angry and amused, but there was nothing she could do. “How can he marry you? Even dating you is probably very difficult!”
Fang Yu’s performance doesn’t even qualify him as a boyfriend. As for Wei Jiameng’s dream of marrying into the Fang family, that was even more impossible.
However, as long as Wei Jiameng does not give up, this hidden danger would persist.
Looking at Wei Jiameng’s pained expression, He Yi sighed and promised her, “Go and change your clothes. I’ll accompany you to the clinic to see if your eardrums have been hurt.”
*
Wei Jiameng also knew that Fang Yu was a little cold to her. Not to mention that she had suffered such a severe beating and he didn’t even say a word to comfort her. He didn’t even accompany her to the hospital to check if her injuries were serious or if she needed medical treatment. He sent her directly back to the leather factory, then he left.
Fang Yu’s apathy made Wei Jiameng feel a little cold. In addition to He Yi’s persuasion, she also had some reminiscence. She no longer stubbornly wanted to marry Fang Yu.
But she was not willing to give up completely and insisted that He Yi should ask Fang Yu personally. What if he was sincere to her? What if he happened to be in a bad mood that day and did not have enough patience? What if he… was willing to marry her?
He Yi decided that if she wanted to cure Wei Jiameng’s unrequited love, she had to remove the root of the problem and solve the problem from the source — let Fang Yu completely vacate Wei Jiameng’s thoughts!

The next day, after breakfast, Yi Liangze came to pick up the children.
He Yi admired his perseverance and determination. The dignified CEO of the Kai Kun International Group had a lot on his plate, yet he came to visit her a few times daily. This was not just enthusiasm, it was simply obsession.
“Take the children to the company? If you’re busy, let them stay here today. I’ll let Xueshan play with them!” He Yi suggested considerately.
Yi Liangze glanced at her, he curled his lips. “The children have been playing for a few days. They should learn something. I hired two kindergarten teachers and informed them to come to work at the company today. Yesterday, I asked Bai Li to get someone to clean up the classroom for the children and prepare all the necessary equipment for the school.”
He Yi could not help but rub her forehead and burst into laughter. “Yeah, why didn’t I think of that?”
Although they could not go to kindergarten, for the time being, she could still get private tutors for the children. She could not keep neglecting their studies. She could hire private tutors for the children now. However, Yi Liangze was the first to do so, and she only came to her senses after being reminded by him. She was slow-witted.
She could not be blamed for this. There were too many things on her mind. The development of Fu Xing factory, the management of the VIP building, the food, clothing, and accommodation of the two children, as well as thinking about how to comfort Wei Jiameng, who had just broken up with her boyfriend, and how to cure her unrequited love, she also had to plan for a lawsuit with the Chu family… in short, there were too many things running through her mind, which led to a deficiency of memory, so she couldn’t think of some things!
However, Yi Liangyi managed a company as big as Kai Kun, so he had as many things to do as she did. Moreover, he had been running to her every day these days, so he was probably busy enough. Why didn’t he seem to be in a terrible state? He always looked calm, confident, and confident.
This… was probably a problem of IQ and ability!
His brain had a lot of memory, unlike hers, that would always jam or crash.
“What are you thinking about?” Yi Liangze held He Yi’s delicate hand that was steadily knocking on her head and said gently with concern, “A headache? You didn’t sleep well last night?”
In the face of the man’s concern, He Yi couldn’t honestly say that she was doubting her IQ. He always looked at her with praise and appreciation. She could not show her weakness, now.
There were many times when she was not as strong and smart as she appeared on the surface. There were also times when she was weak and silly. It was just that she was really as Pei Jie had said. She was too strong and did not want to show her weakness and helplessness.
Yi Liangze’s gaze was deep and sharp as if nothing could be hidden from him. He Yi pondered for a moment, then, she said, “I don’t know what happened to Jiameng recently, but she fell for your cousin Fang Yu. She even thought that he would marry her. Yesterday, the court announced the divorce. She was in a hurry to find Fang Yu to share this good news with him, so she went to Su Anqi’s ward in a daze. She was caught by Fang Yuan, Chu Chu, and Su Anqi, and was almost beaten to death. No matter what, I have to find Fang Yu and demand an explanation from him.”
“What!” Yi Liangze was stunned and asked, “Where do you plan to find Him?”
As far as he knew, his cousin, the women-loving god, did not have a fixed residence. He often loitered around women and did not return home.
“Of course, I don’t know where to find him.” He Yi looked at him and curved her lips slightly. “That’s why I’m telling you.”
First, to clear his confusion (why did she keep knocking on her head?), He Yi didn’t want him to see that she knocked because she thought her head wasn’t good enough; second, she did need Yi Liangze to provide Fang Yu’s exact location, because she didn’t have time to find this wandering playboy.
“Help me find Fang Yu. I have to find him personally and talk to him!” He Yi said firmly.

Night Party, KTV private room.
After two o’clock in the afternoon, a group of self-indulgent young masters gathered together. The Night Party was undoubtedly the best place to have fun. There was food, drink, and entertainment. Most importantly, beautiful women were accompanying them. They often spent time here when they had nothing to do. Drinking, playing cards, or karaoke, or going for a bath, sauna, and massage… They enjoyed it as much as they could.
Fang Yu was naturally a regular here.
He had woken up not long ago, and he looked a little dispirited. Therefore, Wen Yongxiang teased him, “Young Master Fang, did you have too much sex last night? You’re so tired that you don’t have any energy!”
The rest of the people were bored, to begin with, so they immediately focused their attention on Fang Yu. Gu Junkun smiled and said, “I remember a while ago you said you wanted to take down a good woman. How did it go? Is it done?”
Fang Yu was annoyed at the mention of this matter. He waved his hand and announced, “Someone beat me to it!”
“Really? “The rich young masters pricked up their ears and couldn’t help being interested. “Who was so fast? Who is faster than you, Young Master Fang?”
Fang Yu said resentfully, “When I was about to pursue her, I found out that she had already given birth.”
“Wow, when did your appetite become so strange that you’re even interested in a woman who has given birth?” The crowd expressed their confusion…
“So,” Fang Yu forced himself to perk up, he mocked himself, “It’s not that I don’t have any charm, nor is there any woman that I can’t handle, but… a gentleman doesn’t snatch away what others love. She already has a child, we can’t let her man be cuckolded.” especially.., since that man was his cousin.
Of course, he didn’t say anything, and he didn’t dare to cuckold. Otherwise, Yi Liangze would have killed him.
“Heh, you’re chivalrous, you’re really something!” The crowd started to flatter and tease and then burst into laughter.
Just as Fang Yu slowly regained his spirit and pulled a singer in a cool dress into his embrace, ready to have a good time, a waiter walked in and respectfully said, “Young Master Fang, there’s a lady outside looking for you.”
“Young Master Fang, the peach blossoms are blooming!” Someone immediately teased, “You’ve been chased all the way here. Did she catch you cheating?”
“Bring her in, let’s see what she looks like.”
“Is she the one from last night? She’s not sated with her cravings!”
“Hahaha…”
..
Fang Yu ignored the crowd of wealthy young masters who were heckling him and did not bother to directly ask someone to bring her in. This was because he was afraid that Wei Jiameng would haunt him and come looking for him again. He was scared by her yesterday.
Pushing away the disobedient singer in his arms, Fang Yu stood up and followed the waiter out.
“Sigh, Young Master Fang is too stingy!”
“He didn’t let us see her! He was afraid that someone would abduct her!”
“Let someone, follow him out to see what kind of heavenly beauty she is. That Young Master Fang still has to hide her so well.”
..
Fang Yu pushed the door open and walked out. He isolated the room from the messy smoke and miasma behind the door. He felt that the air was much fresher and took a deep breath. Soon, he was amazed. His eyes were transfixed on the visitor.
The woman was slim and graceful. Her hair fell over her shoulders. Her eyes were as clear as water and her lips were moist. Her delicate facial features were as cold as jasmine flowers blooming in the morning breeze. She was beautiful and elegant.
This made Fang Yu, who was used to women wearing heavy makeup, light up. He was pleasantly surprised. “It’s you who is looking for me?”
It was not Wei Jiameng who was giving him a headache. It was He Yi!
He Yi originally didn’t have much hope for her, but she actually came looking for him!
Looking at Fang Yu’s bright eyes, He Yi’s gaze turned colder. When she opened her mouth, her voice was even colder. “Yesterday, Jiameng was attacked by the three of you. Shouldn’t you give her an explanation?”
Fang Yu’s eyes that had just lit up instantly dimmed. So she came looking for him to interrogate him. Immediately, his expression became vague. His shoulders were slanted, and his legs were shaking. He looked like he was in a trance. “Oh, you’re here to seek justice for Wei Jiameng!”
He Yi deeply loathed his indifference. “Jiameng cried for an entire night, not because those three shrews injured her. Compared to the superficial wounds she suffered, the wounds in her heart were deeper and more painful. Young Master Fang, Why do you seduce her like this? If you don’t like her, why are you still giving her hope? You even spout nonsense about making her your girlfriend. You’re despicable!”
“Enough scolding!” Fang Yu was a little angry. “I just woke up and you’re scolding me. How disappointing!”
As he said this, he turned around and planned to return to the private room to continue having fun. He knew that if she had nothing to do, she would not take the initiative to look for him.
“Fang Yu!” He Yi warned him sternly, “If you dare to deceive and pester Jiameng again in the future, I will not let you off!”
Fang Yu had originally planned to leave, but He Yi’s words angered him. He turned around again and looked at her sullenly. He sneered and said, “So what if I pester her! Let me tell you, Wei Jiameng is my girlfriend. If I don’t break up with her, she will never leave me!”
“You…” He Yi sucked in a breath of air. She had planned to come over and quarrel with Fang Yu, then go back and tell Wei Jiameng to make her give up completely. She didn’t him to play such a trick on her. She was so angry that she made a mistake. “Don’t you dare!”
As soon as she said it, she realized that something was wrong. What right did she have to threaten Fang Yu? Why wouldn’t he dare? Unless he was disdainful!
What was worse was that Fang Yu was young and impetuous. He took He Yi’s words as a provocation and immediately laughed out of anger. “Just wait and see if I dare!”
With that, Fang Yu turned back to the private room and slammed the door.
He Yi stood where she was and had a strong foreboding — she might have made a fatal mistake!
She thought that Fang Yu didn’t care about Wei Jiameng, so she came over to quarrel with him and then force Wei Jiameng to give up completely. But she forgot that Fang Yu was not only arrogant but also young and impetuous. The more she provoked him, the more likely he would go against her.
Maybe he didn’t have much interest in Wei Jiameng, but because he was angry with her, he had to pester Wei Jiameng.
After realizing her mistake, He Yi was filled with regret.
Just as she was thinking about how to remedy the situation, she heard a pleasant female voice behind her. “Miss He, why are you here?”
*
He Yi turned around and saw Yu Shujun.
She had only met her twice, but she had a deep impression of her, so she recognized her the moment they met again.
Maybe it was because Baby had been very close to Yu Shujun, or maybe it was because Yi Liangze had an unusual relationship with Yu Shujun, but He Yi couldn’t ignore this woman.
“Manager Yu.” He Yi was also a little surprised. “Why are you here?”
Yu Shujun laughed. “I’m the operating director of the Banquet!”
For some reason, He Yi felt a stab in her heart. It was an extremely subtle feeling, just like the piano competition that she was certain of in school, but she wasn’t the one announced in the first place.
“I helped young master Yi manage two businesses. Although Red House restaurant is under my name, it was opened by the capital that young master Yi gave me.” Yu Shujun didn’t seem to notice the subtle change in He Yi’s expression, she continued to talk enthusiastically.
He Yi forced a smile and felt that she didn’t have anything to talk about with Yu Shujun. “Uh, manager Yu…”
“I’m a few years older than you. Can you call me sister Yu? Or you can call me by my first name. Calling me manager Yu is too informal!” Yu Shujun said with a smile.
The other party’s words were very appropriate and there was nothing wrong with it, but He Yi just couldn’t feel a sense of closeness to her. Perhaps it was a woman’s magical sixth sense. After Yu Shujun posted the video and photos of Yi Liangze bringing her baby to celebrate her birthday on WeChat, he yi could no longer believe that she was as gentle and harmless as she appeared on the surface.
He Yi only smiled. “Sister Yu, you must be quite busy too…”
“Who isn’t busy? But when you meet someone important, you can put aside the things that you should be busy with first!” Yu Shujun smiled as she looked at He Yi, she invited him solemnly, “It’s not easy to meet you, can I invite you to have a cup of tea with me? I heard that you and Liangze are about to get married, and you are Baby’s biological mother. I have something to tell you!”
*
After all, Yu Shujun had helped take care of Baby, and he was extremely close and liked her. Now that He Yi and Yi Liangze were preparing to get married, it was reasonable for Yu Shujun to want to have a few words with He Yi alone. If He Yi refused, again and again, she would seem petty.
He Yi had no choice but to agree to Yu Shujun’s invitation and walked into the tea room together.
The tea room was exquisitely decorated in a Japanese style. It was luxurious and had a simple elegance to it. Every part of it was meticulously carved, and any one of the decorations was priceless.
“Liangze likes to taste tea. He especially made this tea room for his use. He never serves outsiders,” Yu Shujun said as she took off her slippers and sat cross-legged on the tatami. She was sitting in the master’s seat, which was Yi Liangze’s usual seat.
He Yi had no choice but to sit in the guest seat opposite her. She saw a beautiful girl walk up to them, bow to them one after another, and then kneel to prepare the tea ceremony.
With just a glance, He Yi could tell that this girl was an expert in the tea ceremony. All kinds of tea sets seemed to come to life in her hands, but also seemed to be a part of her body. She was so skilled that she was like an ordinary person who could use her fingers as she pleased.
The tea room was decorated magnificently. The furnishings were dazzling, the background music was melodious, the beauty was like Jade, and the fragrance of tea lingered… indeed, this was a perfect place to kill time. It was obvious that Yi Liangze knew how to enjoy himself.
He Yi sat in the guest seat and waited quietly for the tea lady to serve the tea.
The first cup should naturally be given to the owner. The tea lady picked up the cup and handed it to Yu Shujun who was sitting in the main seat.
Yu Shujun smiled and pointed at He Yi. She said to the tea lady, “The first cup of tea should be given to her. She is your future mistress!”
The tea lady still brought the cup of tea to Yu Shujun and bowed. “According to the rules of the tea ceremony, the first cup should be given to the owner, not the mistress!”
Whoever sat in the main seat was the owner of the tea bureau! The tea ceremony naturally had its own rules. The tea lady was well-versed in the tea ceremony, so she naturally would not break the rules.
He Yi’s eyes moved and she could not help but take a deep look at Yu Shujun. Since Yu Shujun liked to taste tea, she should also know these things! If she had the heart to give away the first cup of tea, she should not have taken the master’s seat first.
“I’m sorry.” Yu Shujun chuckled and slowly explained, “I’m used to sitting here!” After a pause, she added, “If Liangze is not around, I normally sit here!”
When she was outside, she would call him young master Yi like everyone else, but in private, she would affectionately call him Liangze.
She didn’t have to do that. He Yi also knew that her relationship with Yi Liangze was extraordinary.
“It doesn’t matter where you sit. I don’t care about this,” He Yi said with a faint smile.
She just didn’t care about it. If she cared about it, that position would of course be hers!
Yu Shujun smiled faintly, but there was already a hint of awkwardness on her face. She realized that He Yi was good at keeping her composure. Just based on her bearing, she was qualified to stand beside Yi Liangze.
She couldn’t help but sigh softly. Yu Shujun held her tea and took a sip. “Liangze has finally met the person he’s waiting for. I’m truly happy for him. Today, I’ll use tea as a substitute for wine. I wish the two of you an early success and a happy family reunion. Husband and wife will love each other for a hundred years!”
No matter what Yu Shujun’s true intentions were, on the surface, she was at least civil and polite. He Yi could only raise her teacup and return the favor. “Thank you, Sister Yu.”
The tea was mellow and sweet, and the aftertaste was endless. It was precisely the extremely precious Gui XI from Pu’er. In addition to the tea lady’s exquisite tea ceremony, they complemented each other perfectly, filling her mouth with a fragrant aroma.
He Yi slowly savored it. After a long while, she looked at the beautiful girl who was setting up the tea ceremony. The more she looked, the more amazed she became. She could not help but say, “You are not wearing makeup.”
