Chapter 848: Chapter 848: Why Bother Looking for Ye Ning?
It just followed what he said, causing quite a reasonable doubt.
Wasn’t it just the right moment that the conversation led to this?
Ye Fei naturally continued speaking.
"..." Zhao Gushen also realized that Ye Fei hadn’t thought in this direction at all just now.
It was his own unsolicited explanation that led Ye Fei to think this way.
Otherwise, Ye Fei wouldn’t have thought about it at all.
Zhao Gushen quickly explained, "I heard it from others."
"Oh." Ye Fei nodded, believing him.
She truly believed him.
Yet Zhao Gushen felt that Ye Fei was being sarcastic.
Ye Fei didn’t know Zhao Gushen’s thoughts.
Otherwise, Ye Fei would have said, sometimes, men can be quite complicated too!
And they always say women are the complicated ones, with so many thoughts.
Just then Zhao Gushen hurriedly explained, "After all, the circle isn’t big, just that small."
"And Zhao Guqing is my cousin. Wherever he goes and whatever he plays with, even unrelated people would use him as a topic to talk to me about."
"Although it’s not like reporting every single detail to me, using his matters as a cue does happen."
"Besides, even though I don’t go to those kinds of places, coming out for social gatherings, it’s inevitable that someone will try to take me there. How could I not investigate clearly what that place is all about?"
"When invited, just by looking at their expressions, you’d know it’s not a simple club, there’s something off inside. Coupled with usual information related to Zhao Guqing, how could I visit such a disgusting place?"
"I got someone to investigate the detailed situation inside that club, which is how I know so clearly." Zhao Gushen said.
"Initially, I just heard about it and decided not to go. Then, after knowing the details inside, I definitely wouldn’t go." As he spoke, a look of disgust appeared on Zhao Gushen’s face.
Clearly he felt the place was filthy, scornful, and detested it deeply.
Ye Fei couldn’t help but smile, "I got it."
"I never suspected anything." Ye Fei said, "Honestly."
To make Zhao Gushen believe, Ye Fei looked up and gazed straight into Zhao Gushen’s eyes, letting him read her mind.
Zhao Gushen indeed understood.
He knew Ye Fei didn’t suspect him from the start.
Zhao Gushen was helpless, thinking with a wry smile if only Ye Fei could read his mind.
Then he could effortlessly prove that he’s truly innocent.
"Zhao Guqing even specifically sent Ye Ning home as if he genuinely wanted to pursue her and start a relationship?" Ye Fei asked.
Based on Zhao Gushen’s explanation, if Zhao Guqing merely wanted to just have fun, he wouldn’t act this way.
"Sincerely pursue and date her." Zhao Gushen muttered, "Zhao Guqing might have that intention."
Now, Ye Fei was truly surprised.
Zhao Gushen continued, "The process might be that, but the outcome is definitely different."
Seeing Ye Fei’s puzzled look, Zhao Gushen thought, this girl’s eyes speak volumes.
Even if he couldn’t read minds, just by looking into her eyes, he’d know what she’s thinking.
Zhao Gushen couldn’t help smiling as he looked at Ye Fei, saying, "Whether it’s Zhao Guqing, my second uncle or aunt, they all want to find a high-status family girl for an alliance. Zhao Guqing himself, along with my second uncle and aunt, all look down on Ye Ning."
Ye Fei nodded.
This she understood very well.
After all, yesterday, Zhao Dingye and Sun Qihui’s disdain towards her, Ye Fei felt firsthand.
Even Zhao Guqing barely glanced at her and the little guy.
Zhao Guqing thought Ye Fei didn’t mind.
After all, Ye Fei didn’t show any anomalies yesterday.
But in reality, Ye Fei saw it all.
"Zhao Guqing himself looks down on her, so naturally, he doesn’t approach Ye Ning with the intention of developing a good outcome." Zhao Gushen said.
"Therefore, he approached her with ulterior motives, wanting to use her." Ye Fei frowned, "But what could he use Ye Ning for?"
"Ye Ning knows nothing about you, and as for me, since I came to B City, she hasn’t got any understanding of me either." Ye Fei said.
Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been such a big misunderstanding at the New Year’s party.
Nor would she be clueless about Ye Fei’s marriage to Zhao Gushen.
Because with close people, Ye Fei wouldn’t possibly hide it.
"Moreover, even considering blood ties, to be honest, I have no interaction with Ye Ning and won’t give her the chance to approach me." Ye Fei frowned, "Then what’s the use of him finding Ye Ning?"
Is it to have the Ye Family smear her reputation?
Indeed, previously Ye Ning had no one to support her.
With Zhao Guqing as a backer, it’s different now.
If they indeed smear her reputation, and with Zhao Guqing amplifying it, solving it would indeed be quite troublesome.
Could it be, he intends to use her to harm Zhao Gushen?
Zhao Gushen thought, there are many ways to use Ye Ning.
Ye Dezhang and Xu Huizhen, no matter what, are Ye Fei’s parents.
Even if Ye Fei has no feelings for Xu Huizhen, and Ye Dezhang is weak in character.
But speaking of it, Ye Dezhang hasn’t done anything to actually harm Ye Fei.
Though weak, easily influenced, hurting Ye Fei’s heart.
But as a child, when something really happens to Ye Dezhang, could Ye Fei truly ignore it?
Zhao Guqing might hurt Ye Dezhang to control Ye Fei.
Of course, there’s also the possibility of utilizing Ye Ning to brainwash Ye Dezhang, uniting them to do something against Ye Fei.
In short, there are many possibilities.
However, Zhao Gushen didn’t tell Ye Fei.
Right now, it’s only speculation.
Saying too much would only add to Ye Fei’s worries.
Zhao Gushen smiled while holding Ye Fei’s shoulder, leading her into the walk-in closet connected to the bedroom.
After Ye Fei and the little one moved in, Zhao Gushen renovated the room.
His original walk-in closet remained; he connected a new one beside the bedroom for Ye Fei to use.
"My people are constantly monitoring Zhao Guqing, and as soon as he makes a move, they’ll report to me immediately," Zhao Gushen said, "By then, whatever Zhao Guqing intends to do, we’ll know right away."
"Naturally, we’ll also know what he’s planning." Zhao Gushen said.
His tone was relaxed, "Alright, don’t think too much now, go change your clothes."
Ye Fei nodded, that’s all they can do.
Zhao Gushen then went to his wardrobe to change too.
Because they talked about a lot just now before changing their clothes, the process took a bit longer.
When they came out of the bedroom, the little guy was already waiting in the living room.
Hearing the two talking, he quickly ran over: "Dad, Xiao Fei, why were you so slow!"
