Chapter 571: Song Jiayan Blocks the Way
Xu Mumu saw the little one about to cry, immediately pinched a strawberry, squeezed a bit of juice out, and placed it on the little one’s lips.
The little guy stuck out his tongue and licked it, tasting sweetness, instantly brightening up and looking at Xu Mumu with glowing eyes.
"You can’t eat more, okay?" Xu Mumu said with a smile. She didn’t dare let him eat more, just giving him a taste was enough. The little one had a weak stomach; she wouldn’t have let him taste it if it weren’t for being unable to stand his crying.
"You eat. I’ll take him out for a walk, he won’t cry then." Yin Yang, experienced in such matters, directly picked the little guy up.
Watching the father and son go out, Xu Mumu turned her gaze back to focus on the notes in her hand.
Now she had time to deal with these things again, although with the little guy around, she had to spend quite a bit of time caring for him, Xu Mumu still enjoyed the feeling of being in the lab.
Xu Mumu was reading her book here, neglecting the passage of time.
Yin Yang walked with the little guy in the village, who had already forgotten about the strawberries. Everything around was unfamiliar; the little one couldn’t speak, just babbled, and when he saw something he liked, he’d smile happily.
But just a short distance away, Yin Yang was stopped by someone.
"Yin Zhiqing." The woman in front was excitedly looking at Yin Yang. Unexpectedly seeing him, Song Jiayan was beside herself with excitement.
Yin Yang glanced at the woman in front of him, holding his son, silently stepped back two steps. This person seemed familiar, oh right, he remembered, wasn’t this the one who made quite a fuss among the female Zhiqing back then?
"Song Zhiqing, what’s up?" Yin Yang asked blandly. The Song Jiayan now was nothing like the glamorous young lady from before, she looked much older, having lost the fair and tender look she had in the city, now tan from the sun.
"I, Yin Zhiqing, have you been well all these years? Is this your son?" Seeing the child held by Yin Yang, Song Jiayan’s slightly rippling heart settled. He was married, had married Xu Mumu, which was known throughout the brigade.
"Yes, quite well. My son is afraid of strangers. Do you need anything?" Yin Yang asked blandly. This person had been sent away for reformation, but with policy changes, she was sent back.
However, Song Jiayan had married Zhao Dashan from the brigade, so he wasn’t worried she’d stir up any trouble.
"I have something I want to say to you. Do you want to take a walk by the river?" She had tidied up her appearance deliberately when she saw Yin Yang earlier. Word had it that Yin Yang was rich now; the few manors on the mountain were set up by Yin Yang and Huo Qingze, and the road between the brigade and the county town was built with their money.
Yin Yang was still so handsome and capable. She used to like him, now she liked him even more.
But the kid he’s holding is really an eyesore.
After being reformed from the farm and because she registered a marriage with Zhao Dashan, she had considered going straight back to the city. But her family completely ignored her, and Zhao Dashan held onto the marriage certificate, refusing to let go.
Years had passed, she had compromised, even having given Zhao Dashan a son, now life at the Zhao family was getting slightly better.
"If you have something to say, say it here. I’m already married; I don’t want any misunderstandings between me and my wife." Yin Yang said calmly. This girl had really changed a lot, though she still had many schemes.
That fixated gaze practically glued to him was quite disgusting. If he had known, he wouldn’t have walked so far with his son.
"Yin Zhiqing, we came here as Zhiqing together, how can you be like this?" Song Jiayan gazed at Yin Yang with a grievance, looking as if she was about to cry.
She believed that with Yin Yang’s capabilities, if she could get close to him, solving the Zhao Dashan situation would be a piece of cake.
Seeing Yin Yang’s high-quality clothing, she had enough of the rural life, couldn’t stand being bossed around by Zhao Dashan’s mother every day, always with endless chores, not enough food or warmth; she desperately wanted a better life, just needed to escape Zhao Dashan’s family.
"There were plenty of people who joined as Zhiqing with me back then, and you even tried to set me up a few times. It’s already good enough that I’m not kicking you while you’re down, what more do you want from me?" Yin Yang raised an eyebrow; this person really had a lot on her mind, he had seen this gaze many times.
Especially since the company was getting bigger, there were quite a few who wanted to recommend themselves to him.
Having seen plenty of such people, now his secretaries and assistants were all men, reducing quite a bit of trouble.
As for those women in the company who had ideas about him, he had found various reasons to either dismiss them or keep them away from him.
His little wife at home was far prettier than those vixens outside, smart and capable. Now he had a wife and son; if he had a daughter, it would be even better. He was incredibly satisfied with his life now.
Yin Yang’s words made Song Jiayan’s face turn blue and then red, like a palette. She hadn’t expected Yin Yang to be so ruthless; there were so many people watching the commotion, and Yin Yang was being so blunt, determined to bring up the past.
Could it be he still thought about Bai Xiaofu? Otherwise, why would he bring those things up now?
Seeing Song Jiayan’s facial changes, Yin Yang thought she would leave in a huff, but he underestimated her thick skin.
"Yin Zhiqing, I didn’t mean it at the time; how come a big man like you still harbors these petty things?" Song Jiayan gave Yin Yang a sorrowful glance, she had long lost face in this brigade, anything was worth it as long as she could attract Yin Yang.
"That’s not true; my son is hungry, I have to go find his mom, so I won’t chat here with you." Yin Yang said as he held his own son, not intending to say more to Song Jiayan. Her greedy look made him really uncomfortable, those calculating eyes left him only with disgust.
"How can Xu Mumu be like this, you’re so busy every day, and she still lets you take care of the kid, not tender or considerate at all." Song Jiayan choked, then immediately said.
Yin Yang’s face turned very unpleasant; this person must be crazy, talking bad about his wife right in front of him. He was protective of his little wife, how could he feel anything was wrong, he liked everything about Xu Mumu.
"I like her just the way she is, and besides, that’s between us. I like taking care of my own son, does your family live by the sea? To meddle so much?" Yin Yang said coldly.
Those watching the commotion around him burst into laughter. Yin Yang was courteous around everyone, but being so ruthlessly direct, only this one person had managed it; Song Jiayan was quite the character.
