President, Please Be Careful
106

Duan Yarong took a deep breath and tried to control her emotions. Then, he continued, “Youxi is also stupid. He was misled by his mother. As a woman, she should know how to restrain herself. Even though the two of you are half-sisters, she should not command you given the fact that you are her older sister. How could he be so disrespectful? She really..”

Duan Yarong and Li Hongyu were different. Duan Yarong came from a prestigious background. She is a well educated woman from a large family. He spoke humbly even though he was in a state of anger.

Even so, Zhao Youlin unwittingly felt touched.

Zhao Youlin had no blood relation with Duan Yarong. However, Duan Yarong knew that she would side with Zhao Youlin after her divorce especially since Zhao Youlin did nothing wrong at all.

On the other hand, all Zhao Youlin's father did was try to avoid trouble. How funny he was to even take his wife with him and not lift a single finger to stop his daughter from exploiting Zhao Youlin.

“The oldest aunt, don't be angry. There is no point in forcing yourself because of them. I'm fine now. I live better with Joy after living away from them.”

Duan Yarong became calm. She nodded and said, “You are a single mother now. So, you should be more vigilant when outside.”

Zhao Youulin's heart clenched as he heard this. He asked hesitantly, "Actually, Grandpa wants Joy and I to return to the main residence."

“Back to main residence?” Duan Yarong was a little surprised upon hearing Zhao Youlin's words.

The Zhao family had many members. His former master had three sons. His eldest son had no children and lived with him in the main residence while his second son, Zhao Shuncheng, and his third son, Zhao Shunchang had long since moved away.

No matter how much the former master adored his grandchildren, they were never allowed to spend the night in the main residence, let alone move into the house for permanent residence.

Duan Yarong thought about it for a long time and still did not know why her former master said so. He raised his head and glanced at Zhao Youlin. He asked doubtfully, "What do you mean?"

“Grandfather asked me to think about it for a few days. So, I want to ask for your opinion.” Zhao Youlin looked at Duan Yarong without showing a hint of caution in her eyes.

Duan Yarong was deep in thought for a moment before she said, “In the end, everything comes back to you. You will enjoy more freedom if you stay out. But, there are only the two of you out there without a man to take care of the house. You will face some challenges if you get sick. If you move here, there are more people around and I can also help you to keep Joy.”

Duan Yarong paused for a moment before continuing, “However, it is likely that more people mean more gossip. If you do not find peace of living in the main residence, I do not mind coming to your side to help you.”

Zhao Youlin smiled faintly and nodded after hearing his words. He was happy that Duan Yarong was actually thinking about him deeply and considering his thoughts. He showed a more sincere smile.

As they were chatting, suddenly, they heard a clicking sound. The tightly shut door opened and a sturdy man entered.

The man froze right after he opened the door and was greeted by the sight of Zhao Youlin and her son. The man's expression was as cold as Mu Tingfeng's. The only difference was that he did not seem surprised.

"Rong, you're back!" Duan Yarong smiled as she looked at him and reluctantly returned Joy to Zhao Youlin. Then, he got up and approached her.

That man was Zhao Shunrong, Zhao Youlin's eldest uncle. He was also the first heir to the Zhao Group.

When he saw his wife walking towards him, there was a slight change to Zhao Shunrong's poker face. His cold gaze softened.

Zhao Shunrong swept Zhao Youlin with his cold gaze. There was a hint of indifference and vigilance in his eyes.

Zhao Youlin knew that her eldest uncle did not like Zhao Youlin before. It was because Zhao Youlin earlier was so ungrateful.

Zhao Shunrong and Duan Yarong were married for over twenty years and had no children. Despite this, Zhao Shunrong never thought of remarrying just for the sake of having offspring.

The man loved Duan Yarong so much that he could give up his children for her sake and even love everything related to her. Therefore, he used to treat Zhao Youlin before better than most people just because Duan Yarong adored her.

Unfortunately, Zhao Youlin previously did not know how to appreciate all of this. Over the years, Duan Yarong's worship for him was in vain and he even ended up with a broken heart.

Naturally, the sense of responsibility of the man who loved his wife so much was triggered. So, he took back his special right to Zhao Youlin and wished Duan Yarong to stop connecting with an ungrateful boy like him.

Duan Yarong had mentioned that she had no idea about the incident of Zhao Youlin slitting her wrist at the Mu family home. Someone had purposely hidden the news from him. Otherwise, Duan Yarong would most likely have known about the news. The one who had intentionally covered the news could have been Zhao Shunrong.

On one hand, he was afraid that Duan Yarong would be angry once he found out about the incident. On the other hand, he did not want Duan Yarong to waste her efforts on Zhao Youlin anymore. This man is very protective of his wife.

When Zhao Youlin understood why her eldest uncle was so unfriendly to her, she almost burst into laughter. Who would have thought that the successor of the Zhao Group was such a loving husband?

As he thought about this, he no longer found his solemn and cold face frightening.

When Zhao Shunrong looked at him once more, Zhao Youlin took the initiative. He got up and greeted him politely, "Hi, Oldest Uncle."

Zhao Shunrong's eyes twinkled. She's surprised. Who would have thought that his nephew who rarely spoke well back then would look him in the eye and even take the initiative to greet him.

The recent rumors about Zhao Youlin immediately flashed through Zhao Shunrong's mind. Ever since he slit his wrist, his nephew had done many unexpected things.

After experiencing the near-death experience, is it really possible to cause so many changes in women?

Zhao Shunrong was deep in thought and did not respond to Zhao Youlin after some time.

When Duan Yarong saw this, she hurriedly pulled up her sleeves and reminded him, "Youlin greet you!"

Only then did Zhao Shunrong regain consciousness. He nodded politely yet coldly and said, “It's nice to see you back here.”

Duan Yarong seemed to be dissatisfied with Zhao Shunrong's response. At the same time, he knew his character well. So, he did not want to comment further and tried to ease the tense atmosphere, “You know your eldest uncle's character well. Don't be bothered by the fact that he doesn't talk much. We are family, no need to take it seriously.”

Zhao Youlin responded. He doesn't care much about it. He knew the reason why Duan Yarong was able to accept it again was because of their past relationship.

Meanwhile, the eldest uncle had a hint of affection for Zhao Youlin. This was further compounded by the incident back then. He must be lying if he says he doesn't mind.
