Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Who Took Advantage of Whom

Even after getting into the car, Zhu Qianying was still mulling over Cheng Ye’s words.

Actually, she had thought of talking to Cheng Ye just then.

The confused accounts between her and Cheng Ye had always been in her favor, Zhu Qianying.

"What are you thinking about?"

Yan Han felt uncomfortable. Watching her reluctant farewell with Cheng Ye in the car made him eager to stop it. But he knew he would appear to be a small-minded man lacking gentlemanliness.

Moreover, considering the current state between him and Zhu Qianying, he really shouldn’t interfere too much.

Of course, if it hadn’t been for last night’s event, Yan Han, a man like that, would not have such self-awareness and self-restraint.

He had managed to suppress the impulse to break them apart, but now she had been staring out of the window with her mouth pursed for more than ten minutes, lost in thought.

Was she thinking about work?

Or maybe she was thinking about Cheng Ye?

To be honest, Yan Han was a bit jealous, but at this moment, he didn’t dare to express his jealousy.

Zhu Qianying turned her head to glance at him then returned her gaze to the window.

About two or three minutes passed before Yan Han, who had almost been driven crazy by her state of anxious thought, heard her murmur faintly.

"Thinking about taking advantage."

Yan Han, who had previously been trying to suppress his jealousy, was now fanning his flames of anger.

"Ha, so you do realize he’s taking advantage of you!" Yan sneered, filling the car with the smell of sour grapes.

Zhu Qianying turned her head to give him a disdainful look.

"What’s going on in your brain?"

Yan Han, seeing that they had now started to communicate, decided to be more explicit.

"Isn’t it obvious? He knows full well that you’re married and my car was parked right across the street. Yet, he brazenly hugged you tightly. I just want to know if you were alright? Could you breathe?"

Zhu Qianying was almost driven mad by his words!

She reached for the recline control on the side of the chair, lowered the backrest with a "click," and proceeded to lie back and close her eyes, ignoring him.

Yan Han’s barrage of accusations only met silence. It was like throwing a powerful punch into cotton.

Seeing Zhu Qianying ignoring him sulkily, Yan Han almost spat blood in frustration.

He had said so much, expecting her to at least offer some defense.

But she didn’t care about refuting him. Was she indifferent to his misunderstandings?

Or was she telling him through her actions that he had no right to misunderstand?

Indeed, who was he to have any misunderstanding?

In her eyes, he was just a man who wore the title of "husband" but had no claim to it!

"Zhu Qianying, will it kill you to say something?"

Yan Han, driven to the brink of madness by her silence and his own suppositions, reached out to pinch her face.

Zhu Qianying swatted his hand away and humphed, "I don’t want to talk to you..." She rolled over, turned her back to him, and faced the window.

Yan Han was amused and annoyed by her remark!

As if he really wanted to talk to her?

Her outrageous behavior of flirting and laughing with another man in broad daylight, right in front of her legal husband, was an affront to his dignity. In the old days, she would have been subjected to severe punishment!

And she had the audacity to say she didn’t want to talk to him?

What a joke!

"Zhu Qianying, if you keep this up, I’ll take back the brocade box and the jade carvings," Yan Han said, grinding his teeth in a threatening tone.

Zhu Qianying snapped back at him, eyes blazing, "On what grounds? I’ve given birth to your son. If we do the math, you still owe me over ninety million. No, once we get back, you’ll have to transfer more than ninety million to my account. You can’t delay this any longer!"

Yan Han’s eyes narrowed in defiance, "You want one hundred million? Alright, I’ll give you that. Two hundred million, three hundred million, four hundred million, as long as you give me Yan 200 million, Yan 300 million, and Yan 400 million..."

By the time he reached the end of his sentence, Yan Han’s suppressed anger had turned into a faint smile.

Zhu Qianying seemed to be amused by the joke about Yan 100 million, Yan 200 million, Yan 300 million, Yan 400 million. She tried to conceal her amusement at first, but finally gave in and started laughing without any inhibitions.

After laughing, Zhu Qianying sighed, "Rich people sure have it easy!"

Like a frightened bird, Yan Han cast her a wary glance.

Luckily, aside from that remark, Zhu Qianying didn’t say anything else.

The atmosphere between them relaxed and Cheng Ye’s matter was put aside.

Then, Yan Han thought of something else.

"By the way, I called home the other day during lunch. Mom said our baby boy went swimming. The swimming instructor says he’s a promising seedling. So, you taught him swimming too?"

Yan Han had never realised that Zhu Qianying was a polymath. The more he knew her, the more he felt this way.

He even began to wonder if there was anything that could baffle this eccentric girl.

Zhu Qianying nodded her head, "Yes! Do you have a problem with that?"

Yan Han raised an eyebrow, "Dare not! Expert Zhu, when can we have a competition?"

Zhu Qianying never backed down from a challenge.

"Sure, I’m always ready to accept a challenge!"

And so, they agreed on a competition.

However, though they had agreed to have a competition one day with their baby boy, they didn’t see each other for several days after returning home.

Zhu Qianying had been busy in M country for a few days, and although she had to keep an eye on the progress of the workshop online and had some designs to finish; she was not too busy.

Finding time for swimming was not a problem.

But Yan Han was different. Ever since his return to L city, he had been on constant business trips. With some urgent matters piling up, he hadn’t even had time to go home these past few days, let alone go swimming.

With Yan Han’s absence, Zhu Qianying was pleased to enjoy her spare time. Taking advantage of the weekend, she flew to R City with her mother and their baby boy.

Every Saturday, the members of the Ji family had a family day.

With the addition of Zhu Qianying and her family, the event became even more lively.

The little boy, Beibei, was drawn to Guoguo like a magnet. They were basically attached to each other, largely ignoring Zhu Qianying.

The three kids played madly on the grass, ignoring the adults, who were indifferent to their antics, letting them run wild and free.

The three men of the Ji family were discussing their plans to go out to sea the next day, while the women were gathered around the round table, snacking on delicious treats made by Chen Jing, and casually chatting.
