473 Stupid Girl (1/2)
The tense atmosphere was interrupted when the leader of the men in black suits received communication from his earpiece. Then he announced to his colleagues that the master and the mistress would be arriving in about ten to fifteen minutes. It would normally take them longer to arrive because Dragon Palace Home #10 was quite far from the condo building, but it seemed that they were hurrying up, perhaps even going over the road's speed limits.
Long Hui, Jiang Ying Yue and Wei Lan also heard the announcement.
A flash of panic appeared in Long Hui's eyes. He redoubled his efforts to escape from the men restraining him. However, his efforts were useless.
Wei Lan looked relieved, saying, ”Very goooood! Let's wait for my daughter and son-in-law to arrive. In the meantime, don't let that bully go. My daughter and Liwei will decide what to do with that villain.”
”I'm going to leave now! Let me go!” Long Hui continued to struggle against the men holding him. ”Ying Yue, tell them to let me go!”
Wei Lan pointed her curling iron at him again like a sword.
”Oh no no noooo! You're not going to order Ying Yue around! You're no longer in a relationship. You can't influence her anymoooore!” Then she turned to Jiang Ying Yue. ”Don't listen to him, girl! Don't be stupid anymore, okaaaay?”
Jiang Ying Yue didn't respond to her. Instead, she looked at Long Hui with a sad and resigned expression. She wiped her tears and looked at the leader of Jin Liwei's men.
”Let him go,” she told him.
Wei Lan gasped . Jin Liwei's subordinates were also taken aback but didn't move, continuing to restrain Long Hui. As for Long Hui, he was also surprised. He stopped struggling to stare at her, examining her expression and trying to find out if she had any ulterior motives for requesting the men to let him go.
”Stupid girl! What are you doing?!” Wei Lan asked in complete disbelief.
Jiang Ying Yue wiped more tears before sighing. The hand she used to slap Long Hui was trembling. She could still feel the sting from the impact of her hand hitting his face. The slap didn't feel satisfying at all. In fact, it broke her heart into a million pieces. She was already starting to feel numb from tonight's emotional events, perhaps from shock. Before she could completely go numb, however, she gave this final act of compassion towards her former lover and the father of her child.
