Chapter 1988: Chapter 1988: Self-Inflicted Karma...
Watching as the little girl clung to her older sister, turning back every few steps, Zhang Fan felt chaotic inside.
Zhang Fan wished he could find a hole in the ground and disappear.
Especially thinking about saying ’let Daddy hold you’ to the girl, Zhang Fan felt utterly embarrassed.
"Ye Yanran!"
Zhang Fan looked at Ye Yanran with a face ashen with anger.
Hell, can you really mess around like this?
You jerk!
Finally recovering from the shock, and you suddenly tell me that’s her daughter?
Where’s the brick, I need a brick!
I swear I got a big surprise for you!
"Nya-nya-nya!" Ye Yanran made a goofy face and then sprinted away!
Laughing all the way, she was practically shaking with laughter.
Meanwhile, Ouyang Feng, Dong Yu, and Hua Ji also snapped out of their shock.
And then they laughed so hard they couldn’t straighten up!
"What the heck are you laughing at! Want me to beat you up?" Zhang Fan barked, clenching his fists.
In an instant, Ouyang Feng and the other two covered their faces, holding back laughter, and sprinted past Zhang Fan.
Soon, only Weng Shuang and Zhang Fan were left.
"Aren’t you disappointed I couldn’t give you a daughter?" Weng Shuang grasped her cheongsam, slightly downcast.
Zhang Fan shook his head like a rattle: "It’s fine, it’s fine!"
Suddenly, Weng Shuang’s eyes filled with tears again!
"You..."
Then, Weng Shuang threw herself into Zhang Fan’s arms, holding him tightly.
"I’ve missed you!" Weng Shuang murmured quietly.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Dongyang’s mouth started trembling.
Just moments ago, he had breathed a sigh of relief.
After all, as long as there are no kids, everything’s fine.
But, this is Ye Jingtian’s house. If the in-laws see this...
Instantly, Zhang Dongyang started coughing and shouted loudly: "You rascal, your mom’s looking for you."
Upon hearing this, Weng Shuang bolted like a startled rabbit, let go, and began sprinting away!
Her eyes caught a glimpse of Zhang Dongyang already turning towards the villa, her face turning crimson.
"It’s over, it’s over, got caught." Weng Shuang bit down hard.
The next moment, she stopped abruptly, turned around, and ran outside.
Remember, this is Ye Yanran’s house.
Weng Shuang knows Zhang Fan’s relationship with Ye Xuan.
Oh heavens, she actually came to Ye Yanran’s house to find Zhang Fan.
Moreover, like this...
Thinking this, Weng Shuang went pale.
If Qin Shuang finds out she and Ye Xuan are fighting over a boyfriend...
"Talk to me when it’s all over!" Weng Shuang passed by Zhang Fan anxiously as she dashed towards her car.
Opened the door, hit the gas, and sped away.
Watching this, Zhang Fan’s heart leaped to his throat.
At this moment, he suddenly realized this was Ye Yanran’s house.
This is a disaster!
If his father-in-law and mother-in-law see this...
Oh crap, this is going terribly wrong.
But then Zhang Fan suddenly thought, was that his dad’s voice?
...
There should be nobody else, right?
Staring at the door, Zhang Fan hesitated.
Walk in, or not?
This is absolutely a problem.
"Why are you overthinking things!" Ouyang Feng suddenly appeared beside Zhang Fan, patting his shoulder.
"I’m freaking out!" Zhang Fan smiled wryly.
Ouyang Feng chuckled: "Why be nervous, everyone has a few women! Since you’re an adult, have them all.
Besides, are you just an ordinary person?
Let me ask, if you have to give up Ye Xuan and Weng Shuang, who do you choose to give up?"
Zhang Fan was stunned, after a moment, he smiled wryly: "Before at your place, Weng Shuang sacrificed her entire entertainment career for me, coming to find me without hesitation.
If I abandon her, am I even human?
But giving up Ye Zi, that’s absolutely impossible too!"
Ouyang Feng patted Zhang Fan’s shoulder and said: "There you go. You need to know, you’re capable of making them happy.
And while you’re together, it’s happiness, there’s no pain.
Once you solve the internal harmony issues, everything else is not a problem.
You’re both willing, what else do you want? Is something wrong with you?
Must you go to extremes?
Life is short, as long as you’re satisfied, that’s enough."
Finishing his words, Ouyang Feng then put his hands in his pockets, looking cool, swaggering off towards the manor.
Watching Ouyang Feng’s figure, Zhang Fan’s face broke into a smile.
Honestly, from the beginning, when he was with Zhang Xiaoyuan and Ye Xuan, he struggled with this question.
But now, Ouyang Feng’s words shone like light into his heart.
Yeah, as long as they’re happy, who cares what others think.
Understanding this, Zhang Fan felt relieved, his entire mood lightened.
Emmmm!
Adults don’t choose!
Ye Zi, Xiaoyuan, that girl, and Weng Shuang, I want them all!
Holding the cake box, Zhang Fan stepped through the door.
Feeling incredibly pleased!
"Troublemaker, get over here and apologize to your Aunt Qin and Uncle Ye!"
As soon as he walked in, Bai Xi gritted his teeth and shouted.
Well, it was supposed to be a nice birthday party, and now what?
You chased everyone away, what’s the point of this birthday party?
If you don’t stir up trouble, would you die?
My lifetime marred by raising a little Demon King like you.
"Oh, what’s apologizing, my Zhang Fan’s character, I know, must be them stirring trouble first." Qin Shuang stood up quickly, came beside Zhang Fan, hugged his arm and said: "Fewer people means it’s quieter, perfect time to chat with family."
"Exactly, those bastards, I don’t want to see them anyway." Ye Jingtian also chimed in, then brewed three cups of tea, stood up and served them to Ouyang Feng, Dong Yu, and Hua Ji.
"No no, Uncle Ye, please sit, please sit, we can help ourselves." Ouyang Feng and the other two quickly stood up.
Ye Jingtian laughed: "No need to be polite, since you’re Zhang Fan’s friends, we should treat you well. And let me tell you, this tea is an aged Top Grade Da Hong Pao brought by old Zhang."
"Uncle Ye, don’t worry about them, they have hands and feet, let them serve themselves!" Zhang Fan laughed.
"Hehe!"
Bai Xi, Qin Shuang, and Ye Jingtian all laughed.
Zhang Fan had a good relationship with Ouyang Feng, but they had to show etiquette too.
Don’t be polite, help yourselves!
They’re not truly family, can they be so casual?
"You rich folks are so troublesome, Xiao Feng they aren’t strangers, why the courtesy! Self-sufficiency!" Zhang Dongyang said.
"Exactly, why the politeness, that guy Zhang Fan has wrecked my house a few times already." Ouyang Feng laughed.
Upon hearing this, Ye Jingtian also laughed: "What’s courteous! Come, let’s cut the cake! I haven’t had cake in a while!"
"Yanran, where’s Shuang’er? Call her over for cake." Qin Shuang also called out, saying, taking the cake box from Zhang Fan’s hand.
At that instant, Zhang Fan felt a chill down his spine!
Cut what cake!
This is just a cake box!
He brought the cake box to tease Ye Yanran, that tigress.
But now, mother-in-law and father-in-law want to cut cake...
Cut it with what!
When they open the cake box and see inside is a message saying ’how old are you to eat cake, don’t you have a clue?’!
He’ll probably get hammered by his mom!
In this instant, Zhang Fan wailed inwardly!
Is this truly the legendary act of self-inflicted suffering?
