Chapter 76: Enjoying Putting a Green Hat on Himself

Yin Hanyu hadn’t come to see her for a while, which left Lin Qingyou feeling a little down.

To find out what Yin Hanyu and her father were discussing, Lin Qingyou purposely went to the kitchen to cook something. That way, she had a legitimate reason to go over.

However, as soon as she entered the kitchen, she saw Lin Qingqing already cooking something.

Lin Qingqing had made white fungus and lotus seed soup and was planning to bring it to Yin Hanyu.

Lin Qingyou sneered.

Lin Qingqing glared at her. “What are you laughing at?”

Lin Qingyou said, “Don’t say I didn’t warn you—if you bring that soup to him, you’re just shooting yourself in the foot.”

Lin Qingqing frowned. “What do you mean?”

Lin Qingyou smirked. “Yin Hanyu hates white fungus. He says eating it feels like eating snot—disgusting.”

Lin Qingqing: “……”

She immediately put down the soup. “Then what does he like to eat?”

Lin Qingyou shrugged. “Why should I tell you?”

“…You…” Lin Qingqing took a deep breath. “How do you even know what he likes and dislikes?”

Lin Qingyou pursed her lips and teased, “I’m just not telling you! Hmph!”

Lin Qingqing: “……”

Just as Lin Qingqing was about to retort, Yin Hanyu suddenly rushed downstairs in a hurry.

He seemed to have something urgent to do and didn’t even glance toward the kitchen before running straight outside.

Lin Qingyou and Lin Qingqing chased after him, but by the time they reached outside, Yin Hanyu had already driven off.

Lin Qingqing turned back and mocked Lin Qingyou. “Looks like he doesn’t care about you that much, huh?”

Lin Qingyou: “……”

She immediately returned to her room, intending to call Yin Hanyu to ask what had happened.

But then she heard his ringtone—coming from inside her room.

Lifting the blanket, she found Yin Hanyu’s phone on her bed.

“What happened? Why did he leave in such a rush?”

Lin Qingyou put his phone away and quickly went to the study to find her father.

Lin Qingyou’s father, now free of a troublesome burden, was in a great mood.

Seeing him, Lin Qingyou immediately asked, “Dad, what did you and Yin Hanyu talk about? Why did he suddenly leave?”

Her father replied, “It’s late. Isn’t it normal for him to leave?”

Lin Qingyou: “……”

Then, her father suddenly realized something. “Wait, is there something going on between you and Yin Hanyu?”

“Uh…” Lin Qingyou laughed awkwardly. “What do you mean, Dad? Why are you suddenly asking that?”

Her father explained, “I spent billions buying a piece of worthless land. I was so worried. But then Yin Hanyu, that kid, suddenly insisted on buying it from me. I wasn’t even trying to scam him.

“But he was incredibly persistent. He even said he’d offer a bigger, better piece of land in exchange. So, I gave it to him.”

Her father then made a guess. “Does he like you? Is he trying to win my favor?”

Lin Qingyou: “……”

It sounded reasonable, but at the same time, it didn’t quite seem like it.

Yin Hanyu left in such a hurry—he must have discovered something.

—

The next morning, Yin Hanyu still hadn’t returned.

Lin Qingyou decided to head back to her apartment.

As soon as she arrived downstairs, she saw Yin Yixuan.

“We need to talk,” he said.

Lin Qingyou originally planned to take him to a café in the neighborhood, but remembering Yin Yixuan’s previous misunderstandings, she decided to take him directly to Yin Hanyu’s apartment instead.

Sure enough, once inside, Yin Yixuan immediately noticed the changes in the place and asked, “Are you living with Yin Hanyu?”

Lin Qingyou poured herself a glass of warm water. “Don’t you always believe what you see? Then trust your eyes.”

Yin Yixuan: “……”

The apartment was now filled with Lin Qingyou’s belongings.

If he didn’t already know that Yin Hanyu lived here, he would have thought he’d walked into the wrong place.

Lin Qingyou originally thought that this would finally clear up Yin Yixuan’s misunderstanding about Yin Hanyu and Ming Yu.

But unexpectedly, Yin Yixuan suddenly roared, “Lin Qingyou, you’re so shameless! You’re actually throwing yourself at another woman’s man?”

Lin Qingyou: “……!!!”

She spat out her water in shock, almost wanting to choke him with a bottle of fizzy water.

Did he just call her a homewrecker?

She was his childhood sweetheart!

Their mothers even arranged an engagement when they were kids!

She was the rightful fiancée, okay?!

Uncle could tolerate this, but Auntie definitely wouldn’t!

“You’re the homewrecker,” Lin Qingyou shoved him. “Your whole family are homewreckers!”

Yin Yixuan almost stumbled. “Lin Qingyou, don’t think I won’t hit you!”

Lin Qingyou clenched her fists. “Try me! I should’ve beaten you up last time!”

Yin Yixuan: “……”

Lin Qingyou rolled her eyes. “People always say you’re some kind of genius.”

“What do you mean ‘some kind of’?” Yin Yixuan scoffed. “I am a genius.”

Lin Qingyou snorted and rolled her eyes again. “More like a born idiot.”

Yin Yixuan: “……”

He took a deep breath, trying to stay calm.

“Even Ming Yu herself said there’s nothing between her and Yin Hanyu.” Lin Qingyou pointed at the apartment. “And Yin Hanyu even has me as his girlfriend. Yet you still insist there’s something? What, do you enjoy putting a green hat on yourself?”

Yin Yixuan: “……”

“What do you know?” he yelled. “If you saw how deeply in love they used to be, you’d cry yourself to death.”

“Pfft.” Lin Qingyou suddenly looked him up and down. “So… you secretly cried before, huh? How touching!”

Yin Yixuan: “……”

That wasn’t the point!

Just as he was about to say something, he received a call.

It was from someone he had sent to follow Ming Yu. He immediately answered, “Did something happen to her?”

Whatever the person said on the other end made Yin Yixuan explode. “What?! She went to find Yin Hanyu again?”

He hung up furiously.

Lin Qingyou asked, “What happened?”

Yin Yixuan stared at her. “You trust Yin Hanyu so much? Then do you know where he is right now?”

Lin Qingyou shook her head. “No idea.”

Yin Yixuan gritted his teeth. “He and Ming Yu went to Yan Mountain for a trip.”

Lin Qingyou was speechless. “How do you know they’re on a trip?”

Yin Yixuan scoffed. “Idiot, Yan Mountain is a famous tourist destination. What else would they be doing there?”

“……” Lin Qingyou was at a loss for words. Was this genius logic?

She asked, “So when you go to the bathroom, do you only use it for its main purpose?”

Yin Yixuan: “If you’re not using it for that, are you going in there to eat crap?”

Lin Qingyou: “……”

She wanted to hit someone so bad.

She sighed. “You can also wash your hands, check yourself in the mirror, and touch up your makeup.”

In other words, Yin Hanyu and Ming Yu could have gone to Yan Mountain for another reason.

But Yin Yixuan sneered, “You’re just in denial. If you have the guts, come with me to Yan Mountain and see for yourself just how fake and disgusting Yin Hanyu truly is!”
