The Time-Limited Love and Marriage -
Chapter 136
Chapter 136: Chapter 136
The little boy in those photos, looked nearly identical to Ling Ye in facial features.
Two of the photos were also taken inside this house.
Apart from that, there were some family group photos.
In a large group photo of several dozen people, Niu Wei immediately recognized the Third Master Fu standing at the central position.
Although he never met Third Master Fu in person, this man had been on the front page headlines for many years, revered almost as a deity by the whole Yan City.
Niu Wei’s father also idolized this man, and the Niu Family had countless newspapers and magazines about him.
So, Niu Wei could not have mistaken him.
But this man, unexpectedly, appeared in Ling Ye’s family photo.
In addition to that, there was also a photo of this man holding a young Ling Ye...
At that moment, Niu Wei was almost certain, that this scenic mountain villa, definitely belonged to Ling Ye’s house, and was not rented.
As for why Ling Ye’s surname was Ling instead of Fu, Niu Wei couldn’t afford to, and didn’t dare, intervene.
Because regardless of Ling Ye’s reasons for not having the surname Fu, he was a presence that the Niu Family could not afford to offend.
"Almost got killed by that bitch Lai Xueer!"
After cursing Lai Xueer several times, Niu Wei quickly closed the door to the room and then returned to the hall.
Ling Ye was playing cards with Jiang Moxi and the others, and Niu Wei hurried forward: "Brother, I’m feeling a bit unwell, I’m going back first. I’ll treat you and your brothers to dinner another day."
Niu Wei also wanted to stay, to ease relations with Ling Ye.
But he couldn’t calm down yet.
Moreover, with Lai Xueer, that bitch, also here today, he worried that he might provoke Ling Ye to fury.
So after thinking it over, Niu Wei decided to go home first and prepare a proper apology before reaching out to Ling Ye.
When Ling Ye heard Niu Wei calling him "Brother" and noticed the sudden submissive tone, he was a bit stunned and looked towards Jiang Moxi.
Jiang Moxi shook her head, indicating that she also didn’t know what was wrong with Niu Wei.
Eventually, they could only let Niu Wei leave.
Lai Xueer walked around the villa several times but couldn’t find Niu Wei, so she returned to the hall.
"Did you see Brother Niu? I went to the restroom, and when I came out, I couldn’t find him."
Jiang Moxi couldn’t be bothered to respond to Lai Xueer, the same went for Ling Ye and the others weren’t very familiar with her.
So, Mu Wanting took it upon herself to speak: "He said he wasn’t feeling well and went back first."
"Ah? He just left, then how am I supposed to get back?" Lai Xueer immediately sounded like a resentful woman.
When she arrived, she didn’t care to ride in the Uber with Ling Ye and Jiang Moxi, but came in BMW car with Niu Wei.
Now that Niu Wei had left, she naturally didn’t want to stay with this bunch of hypocrites and wanted to leave too.
But she was very puzzled, why Niu Wei would leave without calling her.
"You can get back however you want, it’s none of our business." Mu Wanting retorted.
Lai Xueer felt humiliated by Mu Wanting’s admonishment, annoyed, she said: "I never asked you to care!"
Later, Lai Xueer walked out of the villa alone and called a rideshare.
But the rideshare driver said that the mountain area was private and he couldn’t drive up, suggesting Lai Xueer to walk down.
Disbelieving, she called another car, but received the same response, even offers of extra money wouldn’t convi...
She was forced to hold her high heels in her hands, extremely clumsily walking down the slope.
"I knew this poor jerk was intentionally making it difficult for me, choosing a place on the slope because he thought I’d ask him to take me down! Hmph, I’ll never give you that satisfaction!"
Lai Xueer cursed as she descended the mountain.
The only unchanging fact was that she still didn’t believe Ling Ye was wealthy.
Finally, after struggling down the slope and getting into a rideshare, Lai Xueer found that the soles of her feet were rubbed raw, and felt exceedingly aggrieved.
She simply called Niu Wei, wanting to play the victim to gain his sympathy, and then a promise of a gift like a designer bag would be perfect.
But as soon as the call connected, before she could even start complaining to Niu Wei, he started cursing at her from the other end.
"Bitch, don’t ever come looking for me again, and don’t call me either."
Lai Xueer’s brewing tears were immediately halted.
"Brother Niu, what’s wrong? I don’t think I did anything to anger you."
"What’s wrong? You damn near got me killed."
After cursing, Niu Wei couldn’t bother explaining to Lai Xueer: "If you want to die, don’t drag me down with you."
Then, Niu Wei hung up the phone.
Lai Xueer, not willing to give up, tried calling him again, but found out her number had been blocked.
"It must have been Jiang Moxi and the others talking behind my back to Niu Wei while I was away!"
"These people are really disgusting, outwardly criticizing me for being with someone like Niu Wei, but deep down they are just jealous that I’m dating a rich guy, employing such sneaky tactics behind the scenes!"
Jiang Moxi and the others didn’t know that without doing anything, they were being vilified by Lai Xueer.
At this moment, they had already started barbecuing at the back hill.
The old butler had prepared top-grade ingredients, such as top-grade marbled beef, huge scallops, and thick lobsters and king crab legs...
Seeing these ingredients, any doubts about Ling Ye being a rich second generation vanished completely.
Not to mention renting this house, just the cost of these barbecue ingredients alone would have bankrupted the Ling Ye’s family if they were a bit less wealthy.
However, it was during the middle of the barbecue that Mu Wanting asked Jiang Moxi, "Moxi, that thing on your neck, it couldn’t be a hickey, could it?"
"What hickey?"
Jiang Moxi was enjoying crab legs with a fork, savoring them delightfully, and didn’t immediately understand what Mu Wanting meant by "hickey."
It was only when she noticed Mu Wanting’s gleeful expression that she realized what was happening, and her expression froze.
"It’s that thing you get from sucking!"
Mu Wanting wasn’t actually connecting the mark on Jiang Moxi’s neck with anything specific, she was just teasing Jiang Moxi.
So she even took out a small mirror from her bag and handed it to Jiang Moxi: "See, this, do you see it?"
Jiang Moxi saw the red mark on her neck in the mirror, and finally understood why Fu Youhan had asked her in the morning if she wanted to change her clothes.
But that jerk, why didn’t he just tell her directly?
Otherwise, she would have definitely worn something with a high collar.
Just as Jiang Moxi was fretting over how to explain, Ling Ye and Mu Wanting said, "You’re thinking too much, if Moxi had a partner to do that, she wouldn’t fantasize about..."
Bloody hell!
Before Ling Ye could finish his sentence, seeing Jiang Moxi about to hit him with the lobster claw, he quickly covered his head and fled, causing everyone to burst into laughter.
Overall, besides the small episode involving Lai Xueer and Niu Wei, the social gathering dinner was very joyful.
After the gathering ended and others had left one after another, Ling Ye found a chance to ask Jiang Moxi, "What do you think of Luan Wenxing?"
"Luan Wenxing?"
Jiang Moxi recalled, a good-looking guy, reportedly a top student in the physics department at First University.
She nodded slightly, asking Ling Ye, "He’s okay, are you thinking of becoming brothers with him?"
"What are you talking about? I’m trying to find you a romantic partner, don’t get weird ideas," Ling Ye said, flustered.
Jiang Moxi twitched the corners of her mouth, "Why do I need you to find me a romantic partner?"
"I’m thinking of your best interest. Look, you’re still young and pretty, don’t just be fixated on my uncle, that’s never going to happen," Ling Ye frankly said.
But what Ling Ye didn’t expect was Jiang Moxi responding, "Oh, you’re afraid I’d become your aunt? Heh, the more you’re scared the more I want it to happen. How about you try calling me ’Auntie’ to hear how it sounds?"
But what Jiang Moxi did not expect was that right after she finished speaking, Fu Youhan’s voice came from behind.
"I didn’t expect you to actually want to be Xiao Ye’s aunt?"
