Chapter 542: Admitting Defeat

In the evening, Liu Qing ultimately did not get her wish to squeeze into bed with Gu Lingling.

With Grandpa not around, Gu Lingling slept with Grandma Yao at night, conveniently leaving her room for Liu Qing.

Liu Qing had quite an opinion about this, but considering she’d been mooching for two days already, she figured she should behave well. Maybe then the two days could turn into four... or multiple sets of two days.

Besides, Grandma Yao’s cooking was too delicious, and she really liked being at the Yao Family’s house, it was very comfortable.

Unlike her family, cold and lacking any warmth.

All there was, was endless self-interest.

If it weren’t for her special talents, she probably wouldn’t even be noticed in that big family.

Sigh...

Thinking of this, Liu Qing was actually quite willing to be an unknown junior, that way she wouldn’t be pushed into marriage.

But if she were an unknown junior, she probably wouldn’t have any status at home either.

She’d definitely be bullied to death.

If she’d known, she wouldn’t have come back after completing the task. Staying longer in Port City would have been great, no one would be able to control her.

Why did she have a brain freeze and fall for Yang Yunhai in the first place?

Liu Qing was filled with regret.

However, her scheming ultimately did not succeed.

After two days, Yang Yunhai appeared at the Yao Family’s house as scheduled, and this time she had to leave if she didn’t want to.

"If you don’t leave, I’ll call the Liu Family," Yang Yunhai said indifferently, "I heard your grandpa is very angry now, threatening to settle things once you’re back."

In two days, Yang Yunhai had already thoroughly investigated Liu Qing’s situation.

When Liu Qing came back, the Liu Family initially had high hopes for her and Yang Yunhai, but unfortunately, Gu Lingling came between them, and the Yang and Wang Families had already accepted this daughter-in-law, so they couldn’t get involved even if they wanted to.

So, they could only settle for second best.

Who knew Liu Qing stayed in Port City for so long and didn’t want any part of the family’s methods at all, initially enduring to meet, but later simply ran away.

Zhou Weiming?

Unexpectedly, the Liu Family had a good eye and spotted this fox Zhou Weiming. However, Liu Qing dumped him, and I heard his face still swollen from the slap. Yang Yunhai was actually quite happy about that.

Who’s to blame for that fox always clashing with him?

The saying ’Northern Yunhai, Southern Weiming’ was just about the two of them.

"Settle what? The old fool." Liu Qing said angrily, "Yang Yunhai, you know you’re aiding and abetting evil, right? You’ve stayed in Port City too, so why is your thinking still so outdated..."

"What’s it to me?" Yang Yunhai said indifferently.

Liu Qing was at a loss for words.

If it weren’t for him, would she have come back?

Why did she foolishly fall for this man in the first place?

Now she’s dug a big hole and buried herself in it.

What’s infuriating is that the man stands outside the hole watching her joke, not just that, he even wants to sprinkle salt on her wounds, or pour some water into the hole. Making her even more miserable.

"Yang Yunhai, I admit you’re ruthless." Liu Qing glared fiercely at Yang Yunhai, but the other party didn’t pay her any heed, even when her eyes hurt from glaring, people continued doing what they were doing?

But with just one cold glance from him, Liu Qing felt an inexplicable pressure coming her way.

Forget it, she better concede.

Already angered the man she was supposed to date, if she invited Yang Yunhai’s resentment too, she wouldn’t be able to stay in all of Hua Country.

Even trying to go to Port City might be impossible.

So, she could only throw down a fierce line, appearing outwardly strong but inwardly weak, grabbing her luggage and leaving the Yao Family’s house.

"Will there be any trouble?" Gu Lingling asked worriedly.

"What trouble could there be?" Yang Yunhai smiled faintly.
