Chapter 646: Chapter 716, So What?
Little Lin Lin gazed with her big, watery eyes, clear and vibrant as if there were ripples in them. Her innocent, guileless face could easily be described as “harmless to humans and animals.”
Lin Lin blinked, pouting, looking pitiful and adorable.
“Big brother, I want to have a baked pancake too.”
Her voice was milky and tender.
In Lin Lin’s hand, she led a little Lolita, pure and innocent—it was the incredibly cute Yiyi.
Fang Yi squatted down and reached out to stroke the little Lolita’s head, unable to resist pinching Yiyi’s nose.
Yiyi imdiately looked displeased and said in her milky voice, “Big brother, I told you not to touch my nose like that; otherwise, I’ll beco very stupid later on.”
Fang Yi replied, “But you’ll beco very pretty.”
Yiyi shook her head and said seriously, “But I don’t want to beco stupid just because I’m pretty.” What she ant was, she’d rather not be pretty than be stupid.
Fang Yi couldn’t help but laugh. Regardless of Yiyi’s protest, he pinched her nose again, causing the little Lolita to look extrely woeful. But because she was so small, she was completely overpowered.
“Hey, hey, hey,” Lin Lin spoke up.
“What?”
“Don’t bully Yiyi; she’s under my protection,” Lin Lin said.
“…”
Fang Yi acted on impulse, reaching out to touch Lin Lin’s head again.
Lin Lin’s eyes widened instantly, but she was powerless to stop him. Fang Yi then said, “At such a young age, not learning good things. From now on, you’re all under my protection. If soone bullies you, tell , and I’ll take care of it for you.”
Yiyi, who had been full of grievances a mont ago, suddenly filled her adorable little face with excitent and happiness. She quickly said, “Okay, okay, big brother, you must keep your word. Co with !”
Saying so, Yiyi grabbed Fang Yi’s arm, trying to embrace it but failing.
Fang Yi stood immobile, looking puzzled at Yiyi and asked, “Where are we going?”
Yiyi replied, “To my class, of course. Soone bullied .”
“Who bullied you?”
“My teacher,” Yiyi honestly said. “This teacher is so an, bullying every day, giving so much howork, making it so I have no ti to play. So an.”
Fang Yi: “…”
Fang Yi eventually bought baked pancakes for Lin Lin and Yiyi. Lin Lin was satisfied with just one, but Yiyi wanted two, eating one and gleefully saying, “Later, in class, I’ll eat one and put the other on the desk, to make the teacher and classmates envious.”
Fang Yi was speechless once more. Of course, having bought for Lin Lin and Yiyi, he wouldn’t forget Cai Cai. After buying the baked pancakes for the three little girls and watching them enter the school, Fang Yi finally planned to leave.
As he walked toward the black rcedes parked by the roadside, he suddenly paused.
A woman with her arms crossed leaned against the car. She wore a bright yellow wool coat that outlined her slender figure, her black hair flowing like a waterfall, exuding a captivating charm.
She looked like a car model, turning the heads of parents who had co to drop off their children at school, attracting many stares and a high turning rate.
Fang Yi was first taken aback, then couldn’t help but smile as he walked over.
“Why are you here?” Fang Yi looked her up and down without reserve.
“You ca to drop off the children at school. Naturally, I’ve co to drop off the children too,” she said calmly.
“Now that you are the Lin Family Head, managing countless affairs, you have too much free ti,” Fang Yi remarked.
Lin ngyan smiled faintly and asked, “Who’s managing countless affairs?”
Fang Yi could only respond with astonishnt, squinting slightly and saying, “Wow, long ti no see, and you’ve beco naughtier.”
Lin ngyan replied calmly, “I’m not as naughty as you.”
Fang Yi was quite in agreent, “No woman loves a good man, so have you fallen for ?”
Lin ngyan’s beautiful eyes glead with an ambiguous smile, and the corners of her lips curled into a slight smile as she said, “You guess.”
“I can’t guess, that’s why I’m asking you.”
“What if I said I love you, then what would you say?” Lin ngyan’s smile was teasing.
“Then what is there to say? Of course, we’d go to the civil affairs bureau and get our marriage certificate,” Fang Yi declared, as though it were obvious.
A trace of lancholy suddenly appeared in Lin ngyan’s beautiful eyes, and she sighed, “Let’s forget about it. After all, you have children now, and there are so many other won. It wouldn’t be right for to step in.”
Fang Yi was left speechless.
But Fang Yi couldn’t force her. In fact, the relationship between him and Lin ngyan was strange. Sotis they were intimately close, like ‘besties’ who could talk about anything, yet sotis they were at odds, their relationship delicately complex.
It was as if there was a sheet of paper between them that could be pierced through, yet neither of them seed to have the intention to do so.
“By the way, I have news that is good for , but bad for you,” Lin ngyan said.
“Please tell ,” Fang Yi smiled.
“Shen Binan is getting married.”
Fang Yi’s eyes widened in shock: “What?!” He hadn’t caught wind of this at all.
“Don’t be incredulous. What I’m telling you is true.”
“But I haven’t caught wind of it at all.”
Lin ngyan smiled charmingly and said, “That’s simple. I understand that woman Shen Binan; she cares a lot about face. How could she possibly spread such news everywhere? Besides, if it weren’t for the fact that I’m the Lin Family Head, I probably wouldn’t have known such sensational news either.”
“You seem rather pleased with the misfortune?” Fang Yi remarked.
Lin ngyan didn’t deny it and nodded, “Of course.”
Fang Yi was curious, “I find it strange. You were college classmates back in the day and were said to be close friends. How did you turn against each other so suddenly?” His gaze was sharp as he stared into Lin ngyan’s eyes.
Lin ngyan, who was still smiling, suddenly averted her eyes, then said with a cheerful smile, “Want to know? But I just won’t tell you.”
With that, Lin ngyan turned and walked away, getting into a brown Santana.
Fang Yi watched the brown Santana drive off.
Fang Yi didn’t get into his car right away. He stood beside the car, pulled out a cigarette from his pocket and lit it up, then took out his cell phone and dialed Shen Binan’s number.
The phone rang several tis before being answered, with Shen Binan’s voice, weary, coming through, “You looking for ?”
“I want to see you,” Fang Yi said.
“I’m busy right now.”
“I don’t care whether you’re busy or not, I really, really want to see you, right now! Imdiately!” Fang Yi’s words were soft, but his tone was extrely adamant.
Shen Binan seed to pause for a short while before giving Fang Yi the address.
Fang Yi put away his phone, stamped out the half-smoked cigarette, and got into his car.
In a teahouse overlooking the sea, a breeze fluttered in, the air was fresh, and the scenery was pleasant.
In a quiet corner, Shen Binan sat opposite a man.
This man had a face like a pop idol from Cangyun, quite handso, and oozed aristocratic charm with every move. Behind him stood an older man, his half-closed eyes revealing a sharp glint.
The good-looking man took a sip of tea and glanced casually at Shen Binan’s phone on the table, smiling slightly, “Did he make that call?”
He was naturally referring to Fang Yi.
Shen Binan looked at the handso man, her tone indifferent, “So what if he did?”
