Stand-In Boyfriend Fu Zheng Ji

Chapter 475 Bold guess
Yan Yuan's psychological world collapsed in an instant.

Her body trembled for a while and then her face turned pale.

She recalled it quickly in her mind.

When did the relationship between these two women take a qualitative leap right under her nose?

This is unscientific!
The three have been living under the same roof recently.

She didn't notice it at all.

Especially look at Zhang Ling’s speaking attitude.

But it doesn't seem like a joke at all.

Yan Yuan obviously called out "Lingling" tentatively with some shamelessness.

Zhang Ling just glanced at Yan Yuan indifferently.

I was just about to remind Yan Yuan again not to call her so intimately.

She said she wasn't used to hearing it.

But Yan Yuan seemed to have guessed what Zhang Ling would say.

So he forcibly kissed Zhang Ling in front of Wu Man as a declaration of sovereignty.

Then he continued with a silly smile:
"Oh, Lingling, be good! How can our relationship of many years become unfamiliar? I know you must be teaming up with that damn girl Wu Man to deceive me, right?"

Zhang Ling was just about to open her mouth to deny Yan Yuan's explanation.

But Yan Yuan did not give Zhang Ling this opportunity.

After shouting "Lingling" loudly, he continued:
"That's enough! You're just joking around so early in the morning. It's not funny at all. But I have something important to tell you."

On the one hand he does have something important to say.

On the other hand, you can also change the topic.

It can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

Zhang Ling asked curiously:

"what's up?"

Yan Yuan successfully changed the subject.

And revealed a relaxed smile.

This also confirmed that Zhang Ling and Wu Man were probably joking with her.

As for what Yan Yuan called an important matter, it was a message sent by Li Xiang early in the morning.

It is said that Li Xi is going to cause trouble at Zhang Ling's company today.

I wonder who instigated this?

Li Xi blamed Zhang Ling for the fact that he was imprisoned again.

Seriously!

People like Lee Hee are really ridiculous.

She herself is dark inside.

Are you always thinking about how to plot against others all day long?

So it is natural to put the suffering you have endured into context.

Just blame it all on others.

She thought it was revenge against her.

Little did she know that there was no such revenge as she had imagined.

It's more like God's retribution to people like Li Xi.

Let’s not talk about Li Xi.

Next, let’s talk about Li Xiang’s instructions to Yan Yuan.

Say Yan Yuan if possible.

We must find a way to dissuade Zhang Ling from going to work this morning.

It is said that Li Xi is in prison.

How come this guy got leave from prison again?

He even dared to come out and cause trouble for Zhang Ling blatantly.

This made Yan Yuan very puzzled.

But on second thought, it seems normal.

Since ancient times, rules have been set for ordinary people without power.

A man like Li Xi who has tremendous power.

Rules are meant to be broken.

It's not for her to comply.

It’s just that Yan Yuan has a headache.

She knew that Zhang Ling was a person who put work above everything else.

If there is no reason enough for Zhang Ling to take it seriously.

It is impossible to stop Zhang Ling from going to work.

Just when Yan Yuan was having a headache and didn't know what to do.

Li Xiang sent another message, in which he had thought of a perfect excuse for Yan Yuan.

That is to persuade Zhang Ling to pick up Xiaodouzi in advance.

pity!

Zhang Ling said that she also wanted to pick up Xiaodouzi in advance.

But she still remembered that the general manager had arranged an important meeting.

Until I saw her again yesterday.

He looked as if he was afraid that she had forgotten about the meeting.

He also specifically asked her to buy her a new set of formal clothes if possible.

visible!

The importance of the person she was about to meet.

This made the usually decisive general manager act abnormally and give her instructions in a fussy manner.

That's why Zhang Ling didn't dare to neglect today's meeting.

I felt even more conflicted and worried that I would miss my plan to pick up Xiaodouzi.

However, Zhang Ling is not stupid.

Yan Yuan's persuasion made Zhang Ling alert.

Although Yan Yuan made the excuse that he was just saying it casually.

But a hint of worry emerged on Yan Yuan's face.

Zhang Ling still found some clues.

So she just guessed that Yan Yuan's abnormality must be related to Li Xiang.

To confirm my suspicion.

So she expressed what she was thinking to Yan Yuan.

Yan Yuan still denied it on the surface.

But she clearly heard a hint of guilt in the negative words.

Zhang Ling did not continue to expose the truth.

He just gave Yan Yuan a meaningful smile.

After that, he left on his own to wash up.

"What are you laughing at? Zhang Ling, wait a minute, what did that smile of yours just now mean?"

Yan Yuan asked anxiously.

But Zhang Ling ignored Yan Yuan's questioning.

Yan Yuan turned around and grabbed Wu Man and questioned him again.

But Wu Man also smiled meaningfully like Zhang Ling and left.

that moment!
Yan Yuan felt like a complete outsider.

Even more flustered!
I was so nervous that I didn't dare to stay for too long and quickly chased after him.

Before I reached the bathroom door, I heard the crisp laughter of Zhang Ling and Wu Man.

Only then did Yan Yuan suddenly understand what was going on.

She stood at the door angrily and said loudly:
"Well, Zhang Ling, you dare to gang up on me."

The two of them looked in the direction of the sound and paused for only a brief moment.

He didn't say a word of explanation and continued laughing.

Yan Yuan probably weighed the pros and cons in his mind, then looked at Wu Man and continued:

"This must be your idea. Wu Man, just stand there and don't move! I will teach you a lesson today."

As he spoke, Yan Yuan rushed towards Wu Man with fangs and claws bared.

The two of them started fighting like children in front of Zhang Ling.

Laughter instantly filled every corner of the house.

When the father heard the laughter of the three girls, he also smiled and shook his head slightly.

Then he picked up the soup bowl in front of him and walked towards the dining table.

While calling loudly to the three girls to come over for dinner.

Yan Yuan clearly felt that he was no match for Wu Man in the fight.

So he took the opportunity to say that he would temporarily spare Wu Man for Zhang Pengtian's sake.

He also took the opportunity to praise Zhang Pengtian for his delicious cooking.

Wu Man just gave a meaningful smile.

Yan Yuan thought she had achieved a partial victory.

But why couldn't she be happy?

Instead, I felt as if I had suffered a great loss.

Right!

That is, she did not complete what Li Xiang asked her to do.

Instead, you make yourself an object of fun for others.

tease!
This feeling!

how to say?

If someone you don’t interact with on a regular basis does this.

It is very likely that he is deliberately looking for trouble with Yan Yuan.

With her usual character of not holding grudges overnight.

Naturally, they will not let go of the other party's unreasonable play.

But if someone you have been in a close relationship with for many years does this.

That doesn't matter.

Or it may be a necessary means to increase the affection between each other. Fortunately!

At present, Yan Yuan still believes that the relationship between her and Zhang Ling sisters is the latter.

So I didn’t take it too seriously.

The dinner table.

Yan Yuan faced the temptation of delicious food.

She completely forgot all the unpleasant things that had happened between the sisters before.

The only thing on my mind is eating.

Zhang Pengtian glanced at Yan Yuan with some annoyance and said:

"Really? I've told you so many times to eat slowly. No one here will snatch food from her. But Yan Yuan always scrambles for food like a starving ghost."

Wu Man rarely spoke up for Yan Yuan and said:
"It's okay, it's okay. Uncle, you don't know. In this life, some habits are engraved in people's bones and cannot be easily changed. Just let her eat like that. There are no outsiders here."

Upon hearing this, Yan Yuan was stunned and looked up at Wu Man for a while.

It was really unexpected that Wu Man actually spoke out her true feelings.

That's right!

Yan Yuan had long regarded this place as her home.

That's why he dares to eat and drink in front of his family without any scruples and expose his true nature.

You should know that generally when you eat out.

Yan Yuan became so reserved that even he was surprised.

I was surprised that I could be as pretentious as that woman with that two-character surname.

to be frank!
This is also impossible.

You have to know that as long as people live in society, they will be forced to smooth out their edges.

In other words, bow to life.

This seems to have gradually become a basic skill for ordinary adults to survive in society.

Well, I've gotten off topic.

Closer to home.

Yan Yuan thought of a perfect plan to persuade Zhang Ling not to go to work.

That is to try to guide Zhang Pengtian to persuade.

And as far as she knew, Zhang Pengtian particularly liked his granddaughter Xiaodouzi.

Recently, she has been asked more than once when Xiaodouzi will come back.
Think of this.

Yan Yuan revealed the news to Zhang Pengtian that Xiaodouzi would be back today.

But Yan Yuan was a little confused.

Zhang Pengtian heard the news that Xiaodouzi was coming back.

His eyebrows just twitched a little with excitement.

quickly!

He continued to eat the food in his bowl quietly without any disturbance.

Yan Yuan felt that what she had just said had nothing to do with him.

Yan Yuan mistakenly thought that Zhang Pengtian didn't hear clearly just now.

So I went close to him and said it again.

did not expect!
What Yan Yuan saw was still the calm Zhang Pengtian.

What is going on here?
Suddenly!

Yan Yuan seemed to understand something.

She felt as if there was a force controlling everything that she couldn't resist.

So all her efforts were in vain.

There was an inexplicable voice in her mind that advised her not to waste her energy.

She...is a smart person.

In the end, he completely gave up trying to persuade Zhang Ling.

And I comforted myself silently in my heart:
"Li Xiang, Li Xiang, it's not that I don't want to help you. It's mainly because you and Zhang Ling are not a family yet. So there's nothing I can do."

You have to know that Yan Yuan is not someone who gives up easily.

If there is no reason that is convincing enough.

There was no way she could bring herself to give up on what she had agreed to do.

Yan Yuan's abnormal behavior caught Zhang Ling's attention.

But she just silently observed the reactions of everyone around her.

Zhang Ling had a vague feeling that everyone present knew something important about her.

But he only hid it from her.

I'm sure anyone would be unhappy if they encountered this situation.

What's more, his parents and close relatives are included among them.

despite this.

She remained calm and didn't utter a single word of complaint.

Because she knows her relatives and friends in front of her.

If they intentionally conceal it.

Rather than alerting the enemy, let them remain on high alert.

Then listen to those so-called white lies.

She might as well use her own reason to explore and analyze the real answer from their words and actions.

Because she hates lies.

Even if the liar maintains enough kindness when telling the lie.

She also felt that such a lie was unforgivable.

So she was considerate and didn't want to force the other person to lie.

Zhang Ling would rather trust people who truly treat her as a relative or friend.

Wait until the time is right.

Sooner or later, she would be told what they were hiding.

but!

Sometimes she is a person who is unwilling to wait quietly for answers.

Because she knows how to wait passively.

More will result in lies one after another.

You know, telling lies too much will easily become a habit.

If that happens, her inner world will likely collapse and she will completely lose basic trust in her relatives and friends.

So she, who always eats in a hurry,

Today, contrary to the norm, I was the last person to finish breakfast.

Zhang Ling saw how often the three men's eyes flickered when they looked at her.

And her understanding of the three.

It's basically confirmed that they were hiding this from her.

The three of them had not discussed it in advance.

And it can be confirmed that Yan Yuan has the most superficial understanding of this matter.

That's why I'm so active impulsively.

Her intuition told her.

Father Zhang Pengtian and Wu Man know the same level of details.

So there was a quick, understanding look between them.

So far!

Zhang Ling was even more confused.

what the hell?

People who confirm each other's eyes.

If it was Yan Yuan.

She still makes sense.

But this person is Wu Man.

She had only known Wu Man for a few days.

And look at the way father and Wu Man confirm each other's eyes.

It clearly felt like my father had known Wu Man for as long as Yan Yuan.

No matter how she thought about it, this seemed a little unreasonable.

Unreasonable?

Zhang Ling changed her mind.

I looked back and forth between Wu Man and his father several times.

It was reasonable to boldly force myself to believe that my father had known Wu Man for a long time.

Then the knowing look between them, like that between old friends meeting, becomes very reasonable.

Then the problem is coming.

Why did my father get to know Wu Man in advance?

And why did the two of them keep pretending that they had never met before in front of her?
The only reason Zhang Ling could think of at the moment was "mother".

The mother whose father said she had died of complications during childbirth.

Then infer based on Wu Man’s age.

She had a vague feeling that her mother was still alive.

And the Wu Man in front of him is most likely his mother's daughter.

So this also explains why she is so kind every time she sees Wu Man.

Think of this.

Zhang Ling tentatively leaned close to Wu Man's ear with her back to Yan Yuan.

Suddenly he said, "Do you know that my mother is still alive?"

Zhang Ling's words came too suddenly for Wu Man.

By the time she realized what was going on and tried to shake her head to deny it.

She saw Zhang Ling smiling meaningfully and shaking her head, saying:
"You don't have to say a word. Your instinctive reaction just now has given me the answer. That's enough for me."

Yan Yuan, who was standing by, saw Zhang Ling and Wu Man whispering behind her back.

So some of them shook Zhang Ling's arm like a child to express their dissatisfaction.

Zhang Ling remained indifferent to such expressions and continued to lean closer to Wu Man's ear and whispered:
"I guess that's the old lady in the cabin by the lake that we first met."
