Chapter 39 Almost Together
Chapter 39 Almost Together
Li Yucheng didn't say anything. He pushed Tao Wenyao's hand away irritably and drank another glass of wine.
"Hey, to be honest, this woman has been successful in her career since divorcing you."
As Tao Wenyao spoke, he glanced at his good brother's face. If there were a few people in the capital who were not afraid of death, he would be one of them.
"Not only did she start a successful business, she also gave birth to twins. But what's going on between her and that Cheng guy?"
"Have a leg?"
"Do you believe I can break your legs?"
Li Yucheng had a sullen face to begin with, and when he heard these words his expression became as dark as a cloud looming over him, looking frightening and as if he was about to eat someone.
"Your mouth is harder than Nuwa stone. What's the point of admitting that you regret it?" Tao Wenyao nudged him with his elbow.
Li Yucheng raised his eyebrows: "Who regrets?"
"Well, I regret it. I've been looking for her for five years!" Tao Wenyao was speechless and deliberately dragged out his words.
"We really want to fight this lawsuit?"
He tilted his head slightly and gave way to another: "Dear, here is a better suggestion, would you like to listen to it?"
"Let the fart go."
"I suggest you remarry," Tao Wenyao smiled, "This way you'll have both a wife and a daughter, and your little heart won't be hurt~"
"There should be a bed for you in the psychiatric department..."
If Tao Wenyao hadn't pulled him back, Li Yucheng would have grabbed his suit and was ready to leave: "Isn't that Miss Ni?"
About three seats away, a few fat men were pulling and tugging at a woman. They pushed and shoved her and smashed a wine glass. It seemed that they were angry because they failed to strike up a conversation with her.
"Hey, do you want to help?" Tao Wenyao asked.
Li Yucheng withdrew his gaze and lazily lit the lighter. The flame lit up and then went out, but he didn't light a cigarette.
"Here." Tao Wenyao handed him a cigarette. Li Yucheng glanced at it and said, "I've quit."
"What are you doing here, you great lord? Why are you playing melancholy?"
The noise from the private room next door became louder. Tao Wenyao asked again, "Are you really not going to help? That's your ex-wife's sister."
"Ex-wife." Li Yucheng recited the word and lit the cigarette again. In order to get closer to him, his ex-wife imitated someone else and lit his cigarette.
His movements were clumsy and stupid, his posture for blocking the wind was wrong, and he ended up burning his fingers. Li Yucheng still remembers that look, stubborn and aggrieved in the light of the fire.
Li Yucheng asked her if it hurt. The woman pursed her lips and shook her head, but she still insisted on giving him some. When the balcony was filled with white mist, she boldly said she wanted to try it.
"try what?"
The woman stared at his cigarette holder and pointed: "Cigarette."
With all her thoughts exposed, Li Yucheng let her have a taste, and she ended up coughing violently, her face flushed red, and tears oozing from the corners of her eyes.
Even though he was in such a mess, he still asked, "Are you under a lot of pressure?"
He didn't say anything, just put out his cigarette and went into the house.
These methods are too crude. Li Yucheng hopes that the other party can say it directly, such as: I want a kiss.
If it were simpler this way, perhaps he would be satisfied.
Thinking of this, Li Yucheng suddenly extinguished the flame. Perhaps because he moved too quickly, he didn't feel any pain, so he decided to try again.
"Fuck!" Tao Wenyao snatched the lighter away: "Are you sick?"
The other party looked at him in disbelief, and Li Yucheng finally realized how stupid what he had done was.
"Hey, I came here by myself."
Li Yucheng stood up and left immediately after hearing that, but he couldn't stop the woman from throwing herself at him.
Ni Dehai really couldn't give birth to two different children. He sneered and turned sideways, and the woman fell into the sofa.
"Sorry." Ni Chang reacted quickly. She lowered her head to express her apology, then pushed her hair behind her ears with a panicked expression.
"Li Yucheng?" She looked at Tao Wenyao again: "You came here to play with your friends."
Li Yucheng didn't say anything. He ignored her and looked at the drunkards behind him. After hesitating for a long time, they finally left cursing.
Tao Wenyao was still watching the show, and Li Yucheng asked impatiently, "Are you leaving or not?"
"Walk."
"My sister is back?" Ni Chang's words stopped Li Yucheng in his tracks: "She is still with Cheng Wenbo?"
This sentence contains a lot of information. Tao Wenyao was dumbfounded as he listened to it and looked at his good brother with interest.
"Or?" Li Yucheng turned around.
"They were almost together before." Ni Chang sighed: "Then my sister married you, and he ran away to Switzerland."
The word "almost" was used very subtly, as if Li Yucheng was the one who broke up the couple.
“I didn’t expect that they had a child abroad.”
"Miss Ni, don't you watch the news?" Li Yucheng looked sinister and warned, "Spreading rumors is against the law."
Ni Chang was furious when her guess was confirmed, but she was only slightly surprised: "The child is not Cheng Wenbo's? Are you sure?"
"I heard that kid is allergic to peanut butter?"
"Is there a problem?" Li Yucheng raised his eyebrows slightly, curled up his hands on both sides, and gradually began to feel anxious.
"I heard that if one of the parents has an allergen, the chances of passing it on to the child will greatly increase. I remember Cheng Wenbo is also allergic to peanut butter."
Li Yucheng's face turned pale. Seeing this, Tao Wenyao immediately interrupted and said, "Miss Ni, you should be careful when you speak. Public opinion can kill people."
"No, could it be that this child..." Ni Chang deliberately dragged out the last word, then covered her mouth with one hand and lowered her voice: "Is it yours?"
"I advise you not to talk nonsense everywhere, otherwise it is likely to bring yourself into trouble."
Human nature is like this. Once the seed of doubt is planted, the previous certainty will begin to waver. Li Yucheng said nothing in the car, and even Tao Wenyao began to doubt.
"You didn't do a paternity test?"
No answer means no, Tao Wenyao was a little helpless: "You haven't figured out what custody you are fighting for?"
"The child is mine." Li Yucheng's tone was as cold as an ice pick, as if he could stab to death anyone who objected.
"Then what are you thinking about?" Tao Wenyao directly pointed out his good brother: "You are talking more like yourself."
"Ayu, are the children yours, or do you want them to be yours?"
"I said," Li Yucheng's facial muscles were tense, and he spoke with force in every word: "The child is mine."
The car passed by a cattery and Li Yucheng asked the driver to stop the car. Tao Wenyao thought he had offended the cat and got out of the car to say something to him.
"Okay, okay, okay, why are you running? What's yours is yours."
It was getting late, and the cattery owner was about to turn off the lights when he saw a customer pushing the door open and took his hand back from the switch: "Sorry, sir, we're closed."
On the left is a glass house with about ten cats locked inside. There are about five or six breeds. They look average-looking, but they don’t seem to be afraid of strangers and are quite friendly.
"Five minutes." Tao Wenyao gestured to the boss and whispered to Li Yucheng, "What are you going to do?"
"Look at the cat."
“They’re closing.”
“My daughter loves cats.”
"This is a cat parlor, bro. They don't sell cats!"
"I know."
Li Yucheng took a few photos with his mobile phone, then thanked him and left. Tao Wenyao noticed that he had been typing on his mobile phone since he returned to the car, probably waiting for some news.
Sure enough, two minutes later the phone rang. Li Yucheng's face, which had been dark all night, finally smiled, and then he answered the phone and put it to his ear.
