The enchanting duke's only wife

Chapter 46 Contradictory Moods

Seeing Zhong Yan from the side, Li Juan knew in her heart that he was thinking of his ex-wife again.

Over the years, even if Zhong Yan was gentle occasionally, what he saw in his eyes was the shadow of another woman.He is regretful, yet cowardly.I felt ashamed, so I didn't have the guts to chase my wife back.Even marrying herself later was due to the double pressure of public opinion and the company.

His love for Ye Aiqi has never been broken.

Thinking of this, Li Juan couldn't help being angry: "Zhong Yan, you're just looking forward to your daughter coming back to replace Xiaoxiu, aren't you? Isn't Xiaoxiu your daughter! You feel ashamed of their mother and daughter in your heart, then So what? She, Miss Ye, hasn't contacted you for so long, so of course she didn't forgive you! What are you expecting!"

Although Li Juan's words were harsh, every word hit Zhong Yan's wound.Back then, he was the one who betrayed his wife and daughter first, so he should not be forgiven...it should be.But he was still delusional about finding Zhong Nuan back.But now that his daughter has returned to Mengcheng, he can't do it if he wants him to just watch his daughter sever ties with him.

He couldn't tell the difference between the feelings in his heart and the guilt.But what Zhong Yan was sure of was that he wanted Zhong Nuan to come back.He wanted that child who laughed and pretended to call him "Daddy" to come back, even if it hurt her now... After all, blood is thicker than water, and she will understand.

Thinking of this, Zhong Yan left the noisy Li Juan and Zhong Xiu alone, went into the study, and made a phone call.

"Hello?" A somewhat hoarse male voice answered the phone with deep tiredness, but with surprise in his tone.

"Geng Le, do me a favor."

"What are you busy with?"

"I want you to release the news that Ye Jue is my Zhong Yan's daughter Zhong Nuan who has been missing for many years."

The other party seemed surprised too, and after a long pause, he replied, "What about the reward?"

"what would you like?"

"How about your daughter?"

It was lucky for Zhong Yan to discuss business with a money-hungry reporter.At least no matter how big the request is, it can be settled with money.This person was regarded as an accomplice of his family's destruction, but in the end Zhong Yan used a large sum of money to buy him off as his own.

He was the reporter who was hired by Li Juan to expose the scandal of the Zhong family to the public.

Geng Le.He is a reporter, but also a shrewd businessman, who understands the value of every news and uses this value to exchange for the equivalent money.Never lost money.So after Zhong Yan bribed him, there was almost no major trouble due to public opinion.Of course, except for the incident of the collapse of Zhong's family that year.

Geng Le, as Zhong's "spy" in the media, followed Zhong Yan's orders to manipulate the hot news in Mengcheng, and also protected Zhong's reputation.But obviously this time, he has not been entrusted with any tasks by Zhong Yan.But when Zhong Yan asked the price as usual, when he got such an answer, the natural reaction was to freeze
"Mr. Zhong?" Geng Le seemed to be smiling, but his tone was quite frivolous, "Haven't you always been generous before?"

Zhong Yan immediately came back to his senses, and said calmly, "Okay, as long as she is willing."

"This is different from what we said before. You said that you will give me whatever I want as long as you can do it."

"So, I can't do this."

"No, you can. You are her father, so you can... as long as I let the public recognize her as Zhong Nuan, you can." Geng Le said firmly.

Zhong Yan didn't expect Geng Le to say that suddenly, and he panicked for a moment.He thought that this money-hungry man would not want anything other than money.And obviously he was wrong.

He seemed to want to take away his most important treasure, his daughter.

After thinking about it, Geng Le did not say that if it was Ye Jue, Zhong Yan immediately played with words: "Well, I will naturally arrange it after the matter is completed. I also hope that Geng Le can successfully complete the task. The conditions this time But it’s not that easy to do.”

"I see, I will come to you with the results. I hope you will not break your promise then." Geng Le hung up the phone after speaking, naturally guessing the meaning of the words.

Zhong Yan had no choice but to put down the phone, thinking about taking one step at a time.In the end, after losing the support of Miss Ye's family, the Zhong family... had no choice but to maintain a reluctant peace.

Ye Jue in the consulate naturally didn't know all this.While recuperating comfortably, she gradually discovered that the duke who discounted the title of "Visiting China" seemed to be in a panic. Except for a day in the middle when he went to see the consul, he guarded himself almost every day to supervise his "cultivation".

Of course, the "cultivation" Xu Nuo required was completely different from what Ye Jue understood.It's okay to live a life of eating, sleeping, and eating for a few days, but Ye Jue, who has been asking himself to stay at home for half a month while working, can't bear it.

She wanted to read a book, promised to say yes, and then pointed to the British classics in the bookcase and asked which one she wanted to read.You know, one of the things Ye Jue hates the most in this life is reading the entire text!And it's English!

The huge amount of reading in college made her feel chilled just thinking about it.Now with such a trick, she directly gave up the idea of ​​studying.Of course, poor Ye Jue didn't know that this was just a way of promising to know that she wanted to read design magazines.

Even if it's just a magazine, if the inspiration is suddenly inspired, she will definitely work hard regardless of her physical condition.

Seeing his plan succeed, Xu Nuo said proudly, "It's okay, I can read it to you if you don't like it."

So that day, Ye Jue lay on the bed like a child and listened to the duke reciting lengthy and boring classical literature in a standard British aristocratic accent, resting with his eyes closed but unable to fall asleep.

In fact, she hardly understood.

But this is not important for promises.

He just wanted Ye Jue to have a good rest.He didn't want her to take good care of herself like when he was not qualified to intervene in her life and care about her.

Naturally, Ye Jue didn't know that Xu Nuo was actually reading Shakespeare's Sonnet 19.

"YET, DOTHYWORST, OLDTIME: DESPITETHYWRONG, MYLOVESHALLINMYVERSEEVERLIVEYOUNG."
