Chapter 149 - I Am A Little Upset

“But, I always thought that he treated me like a younger sister,” Ning Qing murmured.

Yin Shuiling was taken aback. “He didn’t see you as younger sister?”

As she looked at Ning Qing shaking her head silently, Yin Shuiling grunted lightly. “Actually, thinking about it now, it is not weird. Mu Yunfan is really capable of waiting. It has been 20 years, and he actually controlled himself all this while and only showed his true colours now.”

Ning Qing drank another sip of alcohol. “Shuiling, when the Mu family did not help you at that time, did you hate Mu Yunfan?”

Yin Shuiling shook her head plainly. “It could not be considered hate. There were too many implications with the matters that happened in the corporate world. We don’t have any choice to pinpoint others and blame them for not helping us during times of need. It is only…” Yin Shuiling curled her attractive lips up as she said, “The things that happened 3 years ago were because of someone who pushed the Yun family off a deep cliff. This hate…is engraved deeply in my bones.”

There were people whom she had to hate.

Ning Qing’s heart was painfully numb. Shuiling shouldered on too much hate and revenge, how was she going to be happy for the rest of her life?

There were 4 people who grew up together, and they were no longer the same people who they once were.

“Oh right, Ning Qing, how come I haven’t seen your husband Lu Shaoming these past few days? Could it be that Mu Yunfan likes you, and he is jealous of it?”

“Yeah.” Ning Qing pouted her pink lips in frustration and continued, “He is jealous. He also gave me the silent treatment for a few days. It is hard to pacify this man when he is angry.”

“Haha.” Yin Shuiling lifted the wine glass and held it near her face. She coldly lifted one of her eyebrows as she smiled attractively, showing her red lips and white teeth. “It is the easiest to pacify a man when he is angry. It all depends on whether you know how to do so.”

Yin Shuiling scanned Ning Qing’s curvy figure intently.

Ning Qing stretched out her hand to push her away and said with displeasure, “Shuiling, stop!”

“Haha.” The girls met each other’s gazes and broke into laughter. “Cheers! Forget about all your frustrations. We will not return home today if we are not drunk.”



The two of them drank for over 10 minutes, and at this moment, Yin Shuiling’s phone rang. She answered the call and said “okay” twice before hanging up.

“Ning Qing, there’s a man coming over later to meet me on a blind date. You don’t mind right?”

Ning Qing almost spat out the alcohol inside her mouth. “What, blind date? How old are you, Shuiling?”

Yin Shuiling’s small hand tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and the neon lights of the karaoke lounge shone on her small cheeky face. She was extremely attractive, and she said with a drawl, “My older brother, he blocked all forms of income that I was earning a while ago. There was nobody who was willing to employ me, and even my landlord chased me out of the house. I did not have a choice. I went to look for him and moved in to his condominium.”

“He doesn’t allow me to draw. He even prepared an entire wardrobe of feminine outfits, and he even asked me to date properly. You look, the man that is about to arrive is said to be the most handsome youth in T City.”

Ning Qing hated her heartless tone the most. She stretched out her hand to hold onto her small hand. Shuiling’s little hand was ice cold, and it did not have any warmth to it.

“Shuiling…” Ning Qing did not know how to comfort her.

At this moment: “Miss Yin.” The man from the blind date arrived.

The man was dressed in a white shirt paired with black trousers. He looked around 25 or 26, with a refined face. He was born into a wealthy family, graduated from a prestigious university and returned back to the country from the west. He started a company of his own, and was indeed a handsome man with much talent.

“Hi, how are you?” Yin Shuiling looked sideways and let out a smile. It was like she was scanning a product on a supermarket shelf as she glanced at that talented, handsome man.

The talented young man did not mind her gaze. He sat beside her and said, “I have long heard that President Yin said that his younger sister is independent and solitary. Miss Yin, I have heard plenty about you.”

T City’s Yin Shuiling — there was no one who hadn’t heard of her.

She lived like a princess. She was incredibly beautiful, and she was at the prime of her youth.

Yin Shuiling looked sideways to look at the bar in front of her. Yin Muchen, he was dressed in a grey woolen v-neck sweater. He looked casual yet elegant. There was the daughter of a wealthy family from last time beside him.

“Liu Jun right? Look, how much is my older brother worried about you! He has made his way here although we are on a blind date.”

Liu Jun smiled as he said, “No one is unaware of how President Yin pampers Miss Yin very much. I do not mind.”

As he spoke, Liu Jun raised his glass towards Ning Qing. “Miss Ning, it is the same for you. I have heard much about you.”

Ning Qing also politely raised her glass. She smiled and said, “It is fine as long Mr Liu does not think I am irritating as a third wheel.”

“How could I?”

The trio sat together, and the atmosphere could be considered to be harmonious.

Ning Qing looked towards Yin Muchen. His dark marble-like were also looking towards her at that time. Yin Shuiling had changed dramatically over the years, and even Yin Muchen was not the same taciturn youth that she recalled in her memories.

Ning Qing raised her glass and acknowledged him, “Big Brother Yin.”

“Qingqing.” Yin Muchen replied to her, and that daughter from a wealthy family nodded her head kindly.

“Mr. Liu Jun, since we are here on a blind date, we have to get to know one another first. I also do not want to cheat you. There is something that I have to confess towards you: I have a number of men, and I even had a miscarriage when I was 18.”

Liu Jun’s hand that was holding on alcohol froze, he turned his gaze sideways as he said, “Miss Yin, we are all open minded youth. We don’t have any obsession about virginity, but I am very curious… 18 is such a beautiful age; was it Miss Yin’s first time?”

Ning Qing heard this question and lowered her gaze to guzzle a mouthful of high ABV booze. Yin Shuiling had the neon lights shining on her as she looked at Yin Muchen. That man was whispering with that daughter from a wealthy family, and the expression in his eyes were gentle.

Yin Shuiling slowly donned a smile. Her voice was soft and casual as she said, “No. It was not 18, that year I was in high school… and was not even 16.”

Liu Jun, “…” He had nothing to say. 15 was too young, although he was open minded, he was still unable to accept it.

Yin Shuiling did not bother with his feelings. She rose up and held Ning Qing’s small hand as she said, “Let’s go, Ning Qing. Let us go dancing.”

“Sure.” Ning Qing nodded her head. Both her cheeks were crimson red, and she actually felt a little drunk. But both she and Yin Shuiling were in a bad mood today, and she allowed herself to let loose this once.

She would go all out for her.

….

Yin Shuiling and Ning Qing walked towards the dance floor. Their walk there had already attracted everyone’s attention. The two beauties of T City were going to dance, and everyone was excited.

“Wow…” Everyone gathered by the side of the stage; it was going to be a feast for the eyes today.

Yin Shuiling went on stage. There was a pair of male and female models dancing on stage. Yin Shuiling used a hand to push the female model away and shot a wink at the male model. When the entire crowd was fired up, they applauded and she removed her green windbreaker. She had a red lace shirt underneath, and she was wearing tight leather pants. Her golden-ratio figure was toned, and her leather pants accentuated her attractive, straight legs.

She was dancing passionately on stage. Yin Shuiling plastered herself on the male model and started to dance. The girl who was like a rose had lit the fire of youth tonight. Every expression in her eyes was cold and yet arrogant, like fatal opium.

The famous little vixen of T City.

“Muchen, why is Shuiling dancing like this? Quick, ask her to stop. You look at how these men are looking at her. That male model is taking advantage of her.” The daughter of a wealthy family tugged on Yin Muchen’s elbow.

Yin Muchen stood at the side of the stage. Both of his hands were inside his pockets. His dark eyes had the girl dancing sensually on the stage. His Adam’s apple rolled, and the corners of his lips curled into a thin smile. “Let her dance. She gave herself to a man when she was only 15. She would not be as reserved as you.”

Yin Shuiling heard his voice. She curled her lips and suddenly stopped dancing.

Everyone was looking at her excitedly, and they were taken aback when she stopped suddenly.

“Older Brother.” Yin Shuiling called out coyly and moved with her thin legs, walking towards Yin Muchen.

“Ay, beautiful lady, don’t go!” The male model locked onto Yin Shuiling’s wrist as he was entranced in a spell.

Yin Shuiling frowned and looked coyly at Yin Muchen. “Older Brother, I am in pain.”

Yin Muchen saw the attractive look of the girl. He frowned slightly, and his dark, marble-like eyes looked like they were on the edge of tears. He stared at the male model, and his thin lips moved. “Let’s go!”

Yin Shuiling escaped from his grasp, and lifted her feet to go down the steps.

When the crowd took in a breath of air, Yin Muchen took a step forward and opened his arms to steadily embrace Yin Shuiling in his arms.

“You are drunk, let’s go home.”

“Hehe, Older Brother. You were so furious when you talked about what happened when I was 15. Are you jealous that the man I had at 15 wasn’t you?”

Yin Muchen pursed his thin lips and did not speak. No one knew his emotions, and he carried Yin Shuiling to leave, taking large strides as he went.



Yin Shuiling’s departure did not affect the crowd’s passion, as Ning Qing was still present.

Ning Qing did not dare to dance like Yin Shuiling. She definitely would not dance so passionately with a male model being so close. She only moved her small arms and legs excitedly as she danced.

The people beside her applauded and someone laughed, asking, “Best Actress Ning, you came to a dance lounge to dance — does your Young Master Lu know about this?”

Ning Qing’s exquisite cheeks looked as if they were stained by cherry blossoms. Her skin that resembled an egg white was moist. She half closed her eyes, and she laughed as she vaguely said, “Young Master Lu? Why bother with him? Could it be that I don’t have any freedom anymore?”

Someone else asked, “Best Actress Ning, aren’t you afraid of Young Master Lu being jealous of you being so free now?”

“Him being jealous, has…nothing to do with me. Let me tell you guys. Men: the more you pamper them, the more arrogant they get. I just don’t want to give him face anymore. Haha.”

Ning Qing had a silly laugh.

At this moment, the crowd could hear someone taking a deep breath. The people who were gathered automatically made a path, and a tall, handsome man slowly went up the steps, and he stopped before the girl who was still dancing.

Lu Shaoming.

Everyone quickly turned silent.

Ning Qing’s chin, which was pointing downwards, was lifted up by the man’s two fingers. His voice was deep and melodious. “Ning Qing, who do you not want to give face to?”

Ning Qing was half drunk. She tried hard to open her blurry eyes to look at the person before her. Eh, this person looks like Lu Shaoming.

Ning Qing, who was half drunk, did not dare let loose. It could be seen that this billionaire husband’s power was not what it had been hyped up to be. She hastily stopped what she was doing and channelled her small head downwards like a small girl who did something wrong. Her bright, moist eyes darted around the room secretly, and she then said softly, “Shao, Shaoming, I did not say anything… All of these things…were taught to me by the shameless audience…”

The crowd: “…” We were wronged, Mr. President!

Her entire world turned upside down. Ning Qing was quickly picked up horizontally. The man’s voice was like a spell ringing above her head. “Ning Qing, who asked you turn off your phone? If not for President Yin informing me, how much longer would you have wanted to dance, and when would you have decided to go home? Are there any other wives like you?”

Ning Qing stretched her hand to hold on Lu Shaoming’s neck. She buried her small face in the collar of his coat. She was like a small kitten, nudging lightly. “Shaoming, don’t scold me. I came out to dance because I was a little upset today.”

The two walked out of the club. The chauffeur opened the back of the door of the luxury sedan, and Lu Shaoming carried her to seat in the back.

He embraced the small, soft girl comfortably in his arms. One of his strong arms was around her slim waist, and he used another large hand to cup her small face. “How come you are upset? Let me know.”

Ning Qing half closed her eyes, and her red attractive lips were in a half pout. She looked pitiful and frail. “I led someone to think she’s Mu Yunfan’s girlfriend today, and I tried to kick him out of my mother’s place.”

Lu Shaoming’s dark eyes had hot fireworks in his them, He lifted his eyebrows up, and he was in a jovial mood. But he purposely maintained a calm expression and coughed while he said, “Why, isn’t Mu Yunfan living well at your mother’s place? Furthermore, isn’t he your Older Brother Yunfan?”

Ning Qing raised her small fist to punch his shoulder. Her sweet voice was choppy as she was drunk. “Lu Shaoming, you are not allowed to want more after you got the better end of the deal… You thought that I was a fool… I’ve thought through it all. You were purposely giving me the silent treatment because you knew from the start that Mu Yunfan liked me. You both were enemies from the start. You are such a scoundrel. You are now reaping the fruits of what you had plotted from the start.

Lu Shaoming looked downwards and kissed her tiny nose lovingly, “Well, you could’ve also not allowed my plots to succeed. The choice has always been in your hands.”

Ning Qing searched for his thin lips and slowly entangled hers in them. Her small hand touched his deep sideburns and she said, mesmerized, “Lu Shaoming, I love you.”

Because she fell in love with him, she had no other choice.

There was a fragrant alcohol taste in her mouth. Lu Shaoming enjoyed the rare occasion when she’d take the initiative, and his Adam’s apple bobbed.

“Shaoming, do you think that I am a fool? Thinking about it now, Mu Yunfan only returned to T City to pursue me. He lived in the condominium and went to my school. He had impure intentions towards me, wanting to break us… But I could not tell it from the start, and I was so foolish that I always treated him as an older brother.”

Lu Shaoming did not speak, he caressed Ning Qing’s hair again and again and gave her wordless comfort.

She was not just a little upset; she was very upset.

Upset people need someone to vent to.

He was willing to listen in silence.

“Shaoming, everyone who thought I was foolish thought so because they did not have a brother like Mu Yunfan. 18 years is a long time. From my first memories, he existed in my life. He pampered me very much, and there was one time when I accidentally cut his finger with a small knife. I cried out in shock, but he embraced me in his arms despite being in a mess himself. He used cold water to rinse his finger and told me that Older Brother did not feel pain at all.”
