Tu Gang had been protecting Mr. Ye for nearly a decade. Being a retired special forces soldier, he had successfully thwarted countless injuries that could have befallen Mr. Ye over those years.
Therefore, it wasn't an exaggeration to say that Tu Gang was Mr. Ye's right-hand man.
Tu Gang stepped out of the villa and stood at the door.
Before long, a sports car pulled up at the entrance. Having been with Mr. Ye for a while, Tu Gang naturally knew that the car was worth a fortune.
"Good day, sir. The Ye residence is not receiving visitors today," Tu Gang said politely as he stopped the car.
Song Yun got out of the car, flashed a smile at the man in black blocking his way, and said, "Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Song Yun, and I am Qingqing's husband."
Tu Gang removed his sunglasses, his face filled with shock as he stared at Song Yun. It took a while before he slowly said, "It's you?"
"You know me?"
Not only did Tu Gang know him, but as Mr. Ye's bodyguard, he would accompany Mr. Ye wherever he went, sometimes overtly, sometimes in the shadows.
Mr. Ye had recently visited Jun Le, and Tu Gang was there too, guarding discreetly from the shadows.
When he saw Mr. Ye and Song Yun getting along famously, he knew that this young man was no ordinary fellow. But now, to his astonishment, this man turned out to be the young lady's husband!
Good heavens! Could there be such a coincidence in this world!
He immediately stepped aside, patted Song Yun on the shoulder, and said, "Young man, let me go in and inform them. Wait here for a moment. I believe the master will be pleased with you."
Song Yun expressed his gratitude with a thank you.
Tu Gang ran into the house.
At this moment, Ye Qingqing looked somewhat haggard. She hadn't slept well since the previous night, really afraid that Song Yun would be subjected to her father's difficult demands.
Upon entering the house, Tu Gang whispered to Mr. Ye, "Master, the son-in-law... no, that man has arrived!"
Mr. Ye looked at Tu Gang with confusion. What's the matter, brother, why have your titles changed just after going out?
Calling him son-in-law, damn, you sure do switch gears fast!
With his mood now bright, Father Ye began to chat with Song Yun.
He never even considered Song Yun as a potential son-in-law because, first, Song Yun had parked his car outside someone else's home, and secondly, Song Yun had mentioned before that he was married, which was nothing like a genuine marriage for his daughter; at best, it was just the two of them registering privately.
Based on these two points, Father Ye also harbored deep resentment towards Song Yun's father-in-law.
You old coot, Song Yun is such a catch, having him interested in your daughter is a favor to you; you should check if your ancestors' graves are smoking green! And now what are you doing? Acting all high and mighty at home, blocking Song Yun from entering the house, pah!
So, in front of Song Yun, Father Ye badmouthed Song Yun's father-in-law.
It might look like he was making trouble, but actually, he had a scheme in mind.
Someone like Song Yun, with his exceptional qualities, would surely have his own pride. If he got the idea to divorce over this ordeal, wouldn't it be perfect for him to match with his daughter?
After all, both of them had been through a divorce. They'd undoubtedly cherish each other more, and with someone like him as a father-in-law, wouldn't their life be smooth sailing?
Thinking this, Father Ye began to hatch a nefarious plan. He took the opportunity to complain to Song Yun, "It's almost noon, and it looks like your father-in-law doesn't plan to let you in for lunch. How about this, come back to my house with me, I'll introduce you to my daughter."
Song Yun hastened to wave off the offer, thinking the uncle was a bit too enthusiastic. Even if he was barred by his father-in-law, he wouldn't just casually meet someone new.
But Father Ye was persistent, pestering Song Yun to come home with him until Song Yun gave in, merely agreeing to come in and sit for a while.
When Father Ye pulled him through the grand gates of Ye's residence, Song Yun was stunned. Right! This uncle is also a Ye. Could it be that he is Ye Qingqing's father?!
At that moment, Father Ye was feeling pretty good about himself, humming tunes about the good life.
Driving that bothersome man away was a minor triumph, but getting Song Yun to meet his daughter was a major one!
He hadn't even considered whether they would take to each other; in his eyes, with Ye Qingqing's stunning beauty and Song Yun's dashing looks, they were a match made in heaven!
Meanwhile, inside the villa, Ye Qingqing was pacing anxiously. Why hadn't Song Yun replied to her messages?
Was he angry? What should she do now!
It was all her father's fault for leaving the house at such a crucial moment, and for being gone so long!
With lunchtime approaching and the two of them still not having met, she was getting anxious!
