Don’t force me to marry youDirector Wang left without eating. Zhang Yan really wanted to chase after him to ask for the reason, but she ultimately stayed by Lin Yuan’s side.

“Senior Brother, what did you just say?”

“It wasn’t me who said it, it was you.”

“I said that if I live with you guys, my master will get angry?”

Lin Yuan hadn’t expected Zhang Yan to be so unrestrained with her words; he couldn’t stop her even if he wanted to.

“It seems you truly don’t care.”

“Living with you all? What’s the big deal? You and Master both seem to be making a mountain out of a molehill.”

Lin Yuan gave a wry smile, “Little Princess, you don’t care, and that’s fine for you. But I’m in trouble. Your master has already warned me. Oh, right, he just mentioned your dad. I never asked you, what’s your dad’s background?”

“I don’t want to say.”

“I didn’t want to ask either. But didn’t you hear what your master just said? ‘If your dad finds out, who knows how he’ll deal with me.’ As the meat on the chopping block, don’t I have a right to know?”

Zhang Yan hesitated, “Even without me saying anything, you always call me ‘Little Princess.’ If I tell you, I’m afraid you’ll mind even more.”

“Then forget it. How about you first give your dad a heads-up? Tell him you’re the one harassing me, and when he deals with me later, to at least spare my life.”

“Senior Brother, you’re doing it again…”

Just then, Zhang Yan’s phone rang.

“My dad’s call?”

Lin Yuan could guess. Director Wang had just left, and Zhang Yan immediately received a call from her dad. Did it need any more explanation?

“Hello, Dad.”

“…”

“I’m having dinner with a friend.”

“…”

“It’s really just a friend.”

“…”

“I’m just staying at a friend’s house temporarily.”

“…”

As they chatted, Zhang Yan’s face inexplicably turned red. Lin Yuan was completely confused.

“Dad~~, why are you saying that…”

“…”

“Okay, I know.”

Zhang Yan pouted as she hung up the phone, “Finally managed to fool him.”

Lin Yuan propped his forehead with his hand, “What did your dad say?”

“My dad… just told me to be careful. He didn’t say anything else.”

“Be careful? He didn’t tell you to go back?”

“No. I feel like I fooled him.”

“Miss, do you think that’s realistic? Your master clearly told your dad, and do you think your master would only tell half the story? Your dad is clearly pretending not to know.”

“Really?”

Zhang Yan’s dad’s attitude made Lin Yuan a bit uneasy. He was truly afraid of suddenly being ambushed with a sack on the street and then becoming another lost soul in the Qinhuai River.

“Can you tell me exactly what you and your dad talked about?”

“Do I really have to say?”

“I want to know if your dad is actually angry.”

“My dad just told me to be careful and not to play too wildly.”

“He told you to be mindful? So where is this ‘mindfulness’? Did he say? He didn’t tell you to move out?”

Zhang Yan shook her head, “He said he checked, and that my friend is ‘alright.’ He said you were ‘alright’… My dad told me not to let myself be wronged, and to tell him if I was unhappy about anything.”

Lin Yuan was completely bewildered.

“Your dad knows his own daughter is living in a guy’s house who has a girlfriend, and he just tells you to be careful and not to wrong yourself. What is this? If I knew my daughter was doing that, I’d be jumping up and down in a minute.

Your dad isn’t speaking sarcastically, is he? And then he’ll send people to put a sack over my head in the middle of the night?”

“What are you thinking? This is a society governed by law now. If he really wanted to deal with you, there are plenty of ways; why use such underhanded tricks?”

Lin Yuan suddenly realized that Zhang Yan was, after all, a “Little Princess,” and she definitely knew much more about this kind of thing than he did. As the saying goes, even if you haven’t eaten pork, you’ve seen a pig run.

With that thought, he felt relieved.

As long as it was out in the open, then everything could be dealt with as it came.

“Your dad told you to be careful. What is he worried about? Why emphasize your safety?”

“I don’t want to say.”

“Just tell me, so I at least know what he’s worried about.”

“My dad meant for me to take safety measures…”

“Ah?” Lin Yuan’s eyes widened. A moment later, he understood everything.

“Alright, I finally get it. Your dad sees me as a tool. Thinking about it, it makes sense, it’s just for fun, right? Just don’t cause any trouble. Your dad didn’t even check my admission physical exam report, did he?”

“Senior Brother,” Zhang Yan said indignantly, “Can you stop joking? Another day, I’ll take you to meet my dad, and I’ll explain it to him in person.”

“No, please don’t. I’m already confused enough. Being seen as a tool by your dad, at least for now, I won’t have any trouble. If I go with you to see him, I’m afraid it will complicate things.”

“Okay then, I’ll listen to you.”

Lin Yuan instinctively realized that his future life would not be peaceful.

“Sigh, the best outcome is if you tell your dad one day that you’re tired of playing with me. Then, your dad takes pity on me and gives me a leg up. No, wait, just don’t intentionally target me. I’m not asking for a leg up.”

“Senior Brother, if you keep talking like that, I’ll call my dad right now and tell him I’m interested in you.”

“I was wrong.” Lin Yuan quickly apologized, then immediately shut up.

“Hmph! Please understand the current situation. Don’t force me to marry you.”

Don’t force me to marry you? Zhang Yan said this with an arrogant attitude.

Lin Yuan felt bullied, but he couldn’t quite articulate where he was being taken advantage of. This situation apparently wasn’t protected by law either.

“I concede.”

“Eat.” Zhang Yan forcefully slapped the menu in front of Lin Yuan.

“Whatever, I don’t have an appetite.”

“You’re really boring like this. You make me feel like I’ve caused you trouble again.”

“Isn’t that true?”

…

Then, the two sat facing each other in a silent cold war.

Suddenly, Zhang Yan’s phone rang.

“Hello, Master.”

“…”

“Okay, thank you, Master.”

Then Zhang Yan looked at Lin Yuan, “Stinky Senior Brother, my Master agreed. He asked if you want to go together this afternoon.”

“Go to Lanbiao Factory?”

“Yes.”

Although Lin Yuan was puzzled, he immediately agreed, “Okay, of course I want to go.”

Zhang Yan then picked up the phone again, “Master, then we’ll meet downstairs at their company later.”

Lin Yuan didn’t know why Director Wang agreed to go with him again, but he could confirm that Director Wang certainly wasn’t doing it for his sake.

Lin Yuan had originally wanted to trick Director Wang, painting him a grand picture, such as ensuring the stable development of the takeout industry. Then he would make Director Wang follow his lead.

But now, it seemed it was ultimately thanks to Zhang Yan’s influence.

“I really am just a nobody.” This was the helpless cry of a cheater.

“Senior Brother, don’t be like that.” Zhang Yan then comforted Lin Yuan, and their cold war quickly ended. “You’re my good Senior Brother.”

Lin Yuan originally wanted to join Lanbiao Factory just to get back the pride he lost to Good Group.

However, he sadly discovered: the boss Good Group hadn’t been defeated yet, and an even bigger boss was vaguely appearing there.

Moreover, it was probably the kind that would be unavoidable in the future.

“Forget it, let’s eat. Then we’ll leave.”

Lin Yuan decided to resolve his grievances with Good Group first.
