Chapter 793: Chapter 792 Stranger
Ye Yulan opened the text message and discovered it was from an unknown number.
"Hello! Who is this?" Ye Yulan asked.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long while before a woman’s voice came through.
"Is this Ye Yulan?"
"Um, yes, I am. Who might this be?"
"Are you Ye Yulan?" The woman’s tone was somewhat sharp.
"Yes, that’s me! Who are you?"
"I’m Zhao Yali, Zhao Yaqing’s sister. Zhao Yaqing is dead, so now, her entire estate is under my control!" Zhao Yali said coldly.
"Zhao Yali? You are Zhao Yali?" Ye Yulan said in surprise.
"What? Have you heard of me?"
"No, but I have seen a news report online that said you and your sister, Zhao Yaqing, are from the same mother, twin sisters, so I know who you are."
"Hmph! What does it matter if you know me? I’m calling today to ask if you and Liu Zheng are in a relationship?"
"We are not!" Ye Yulan firmly denied.
"You’d better not be lying to me, or else don’t blame me for not being polite!"
"Zhao Yali, what right do you have to threaten me? I won’t be intimidated by you!" Ye Yulan said defiantly.
"Hmph! That’s not up to you!"
Having said that, Zhao Yali hung up.
Listening to the beeping sound from the phone, Ye Yulan was furious inside, "Zhao Yali, you’ve completely lost your mind, daring to use my parents as blackmail against me, you won’t get away with this!"
Ye Yulan, with phone in hand, dialed Zhou Yulong’s number.
"Beep... beep..."
"Hello! Yulan, what’s going on?" Zhou Yulong asked.
"Uncle, someone’s threatening me, saying if I date Liu Zheng, they’ll reveal the murder of my parents, and that person will become famous," Ye Yulan passed the phone to Zhou Yulong.
Zhou Yulong took Ye Yulan’s phone, glanced at it, and his face darkened with fury, "Hmph! This Zhao Yali is really arrogant, daring to threaten my daughter using my parents! No way! I must get a lawyer to help!"
Saying this, Zhou Yulong stood up and walked towards the door.
...
After leaving Ye Yulan’s home, Zhou Yulong made a call to the city’s Party Secretary, Zhao Dahai, and recounted Ye Yulan’s perilous situation, also requesting his support.
Upon hearing that his daughter was in danger, Zhao Dahai immediately stated, "Don’t worry! I’ve already dispatched the police. You just need to protect yourself, and as for Yulan, I’ll handle it! You stay at home to recuperate in peace, leave the other matters to me!"
"Thank you, Uncle Zhao!"
"Yulan, why are you being so formal with me? Just stay at home and recover, I’ll take care of the rest!" Zhao Dahai said with a laugh.
"Then I’m troubled, Uncle Zhao!"
"Alright! Take good care of yourself, and I won’t disturb your rest any further!"
"Um, goodbye!"
"Goodbye!"
After hanging up, the smile on Zhao Dahai’s face vanished, replaced by thick anger and hatred.
"Liu Zheng! I’ve underestimated you. I really didn’t expect you to have the guts to mess with my darling daughter! This time, you’re dead!" Zhao Dahai thought viciously.
"Liu Zheng, I’ll make your life a living hell!"
Zhao Dahai clenched his fists tightly, the veins on the back of his hands bulging.
Ye Yulan came out of the room and saw Zhou Yulong, hurrying over to him.
"Yulong, what were you just doing?" Ye Yulan asked in confusion.
"I was thinking, your mood must be quite bad, right?" Zhou Yulong asked with a smile.
"Not too bad, but I’m a bit worried too. After all, this matter involves so much, I’m afraid it might bring trouble to you!" Zhou Yulan said.
Zhou Yulan had a very gentle nature, rarely losing her temper with boys.
But this time, Ye Yulan was truly angry.
"Silly girl, I had already guessed this would happen, and I knew it would involve you, so I was prepared. Don’t worry, I’ll sort this out for you!" Zhou Yulong comforted Ye Yulan, all the while plotting how to deal with Liu Zheng.
"Alright! Then that’s good! Come into the house. Your parents must be quite worried about you. I told them not to disturb your rest."
"Okay then! You go on and get busy."
"Mm!"
...
Ye Yulan returned to her room, sent a text message to Zhou Yulong, and then went to bed.
At this moment, Ye Yulan lay in bed, her mind in turmoil.
"I don’t know what to do!"
Thinking about the matter, Ye Yulan couldn’t help but start to cry.
"Sob..."
"Ah! It hurts so much!"
Ye Yulan suddenly cried out.
It turned out that a stone had scratched her right arm.
Enduring the intense pain, Ye Yulan bandaged herself up and went to sleep.
...
"Boss Chen, the matter has been taken care of. Those two kidnappers have been dealt with by me, and I’ve also arranged for people to protect Ye Yulan and Liu Zheng!" a man in a black suit respectfully reported to Liu Zheng.
"Good job, well done!" Liu Zheng nodded in satisfaction, "However, don’t tell anyone about this. We don’t want any unexpected complications. Understand?"
"Yes!"
"You can go out!"
"Yes!"
After the man left, Liu Zheng’s expression turned gloomy.
Zhao Dahai, this time, I, Liu Zheng, will not let you off!
Liu Zheng thought to himself fiercely.
Zhao Yali, just wait, I will make sure you die a humiliating death!
...
Liu Zheng and Ye Yulan stayed in the hospital for a few days. Their injuries had healed considerably, and Ye Yulan suggested going home.
Once home, Zhou Yulong personally took Ye Yulan back.
"Yulan, let me walk you downstairs!" Zhou Yulong said with a smile.
"Mm!"
Ye Yulan nodded in agreement.
They took the car back to the villa.
"Yulan, you’re back!" Zhao Yali stood up hurriedly.
"Auntie Zhao, I’m fine, don’t worry!" Ye Yulan said.
"Look, you’re bleeding. It must be because the injury was too severe, right? Go put some medicine on it quickly!" Zhao Yali said with concern.
"Oh! Okay!"
Ye Yulan nodded and went upstairs.
"What happened to Yulan? How did she suddenly get hurt?" Upon seeing Ye Yulan’s injury, Zhou Yulong quickly entered the living room.
"Oh my! This is all my son-in-law’s fault! He flirts around outside and got involved with my daughter. My daughter was bullied for his sake, suffered injuries, and now can’t even walk!" Zhao Yali said, tears falling as she spoke.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Yulong became furious, his fists clenched tight as he gritted his teeth and said, "This Liu Zheng is simply outrageous!"
Images of Ye Yulan and Liu Zheng being affectionate flashed through Zhou Yulong’s mind, a strong sense of jealousy welled up within him, "I absolutely will not allow Liu Zheng to compete with me for you! He doesn’t deserve to be with you!"
"Zhao Dahai, I will make sure Liu Zheng’s life is worse than death!" Hatred filled Zhou Yulong’s eyes.
...
"Xiaofei, come to the ball with me tonight!" Ye Yulan said excitedly to Liu Zheng as soon as she got back.
"What ball?" Liu Zheng asked, puzzled.
"Of course, it’s the one where all the tycoons are invited!"
"I’m not going!"
Liu Zheng shook his head and refused, "I’m not interested in those people."
"But..."
Before Ye Yulan could finish, Liu Zheng interrupted her.
"No buts! I’m not going!"
