Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
Everyone was silenced by what Wang Ming Yang did.
*Ring ring*
The video call request was ringing but Wang Ming Yang didn’t answer. Then, he looked at Lin Fan, “Should I answer it?”
Lin Fan just looked at Wang Ming Yang and blinked. He didn’t know what to say at all. He had been sabotaged by Wang Ming Yang and he had given up on the situation. Wang Ming Yang could really think of something.
It was just a matchmaking session. It’s normal to not be liked by the other party. What was he trying to do?
But he was rather excited. After all, he’s a human too and he had an egoistic side to him.
When Lin Fan wanted to reply, his mother interrupted, “Lil’ Wang, pick it up. Why did this boy blacklist a beautiful girl? It just doesn’t make sense. He even made them look for you instead.”
He looked at Lin Fan’s mother and understood her intention. She wanted to open it for everyone to see.
Lin Fan said, “Mum…”
Then, he just shut up and pretended he didn’t say anything. After all, it had already happened and there was nothing he could say. What else could he have said? He just let them continue with the show.
Wang Ming Yang picked up the phone.
An elegant voice could be heard from the video call.
“Brother Wang, where is Fan Fan? I called him but couldn’t get through. Did he blacklist me again?”
Wang Ming Yang wanted to reply but he realized that Lin Fan’s mother was waving her hand at him. She didn’t want him to speak the truth. Then, he replied, “No, his phone ran out of battery and now it’s switched off. I’ll pass the phone to him for you.”
When Lin Fan saw Wang Ming Yang hand the phone over, he didn’t know whether he should pick it up or not.
Lin Fan’s mother said, “Quickly pick it up…”
Lin Fan looked at his mum and Wang Ming Yang and realized that Wang Ming Yang was laughing. Then, he took the phone from Wang Ming Yang and pointed the phone’s camera towards himself but he didn’t say anything.
Qiao Yue Yue said, “Why are you ignoring me?”
Lin Fan looked at the face in the video call and was stunned. She looked very familiar.
Then, he recovered from his daze.
Qiao Yue Yue? The famous actress that was always talked about on Weibo? What is Wang Ming Yang up to? He’s playing with such high stakes. How am I going to close the case? D*mn it…
Qiao Yue Yue said, “Why are you not saying anything? Do you really hate me? I can leave if you hate me. I won’t disturb you anymore. I am so exhausted from work every day but I always want to chat with you after work. You don’t even want to pick up my calls.” *cries*
She immediately started tearing up. Her acting skills were top-notch. If she didn’t get the best actress award, the tears would’ve gone to waste.
Lin Fan was speechless. How was he supposed to react to that?
Sister Chen was stunned when she heard what the girl said over the phone. That…
Lin Fan’s mother sat there and pointed at him. Then, she chided, “A girl is speaking to you. Why are you not replying? Are you a mute?”
Qiao Yue Yue continued, “Who is beside you? Did you really go for matchmaking today? Why did you go for matchmaking? Do you think I’m not good enough? Tell me why. I am willing to change. If you don’t like my job, I can quit…”
Lin Fan wanted to reply with, “Girl, can you not say such things? It would kill me.”
Then, Lin Fan’s mother stood behind Lin Fan and patted his head, “Pass the phone to mum.”
Lin Fan felt chills down his spine and he was stunned by his mum’s expression. So, he handed the phone over to her.
The stern expression on her face suddenly changed. She looked like a kindly woman. Then, she spoke to the person in the video call, “Hi, I am Lin Fan’s mother. Please don’t be misunderstood. I am the one at fault for arranging the matchmaking session. He didn’t tell me about you. I thought he was single and couldn’t find a girlfriend. Therefore, I was anxious for him to come for this. Please don’t blame auntie.”
Qiao Yue Yue quickly wiped her tears and she looked a little nervous, “Hi Auntie, I… I…”
When she saw the lady in the video call, she was stunned. “Daddy, come here. This lady is so pretty.”
Lin Fan’s dad was stunned when he saw the lady in the video call. His smile was so wide that his eyes were barely visible. He was happy again.
The more Lin Fan’s mum looked at the lady in the video call, the more she liked her. She was ecstatic too. She didn’t expect her son to be wooed by someone so pretty. Their ancestors must be watching over them. Soon, they found this lady to be familiar. It seemed as if they had seen her before but they weren’t bothered by it.
“Girl, how old are you now?”
Qiao Yue Yue replied, “Auntie, I am twenty-four this year.”
Lin Fan’s mum said, “Where are you from?”
Lin Fan’s presence had been completely ignored. He glanced at Wang Ming Yang. This fella really wasn’t going to let things end normally. He had to create trouble one way or another. He wanted to see how Wang Ming Yang was going to end this. If he had known that this was going to happen, he wouldn’t have let him follow along.
