Too Late to Regret, She’s Now With the Big Boss - Chapter 74

“If you can’t hear clearly, there must be something wrong with your ears. Go to the hospital quickly. I’ll ask Ding Fan to take you there,” Bai Lang said gently.

“……” Lu Yao stomped her feet in frustration. “Idiot! Blockhead! I know my own way.”

Watching Lu Yao’s furious retreating figure, Bai Lang shook his head and asked the butler, “Uncle Zhang, what’s wrong with her? I was just trying to help. Did I do something wrong?”

“You didn’t do anything wrong. Tell me the truth, Bai Lang, do you really not like Miss Yao Yao?” Uncle Zhang looked directly into Bai Lang’s eyes as he asked.

“Like her? Are you joking? In this lifetime, I only care about the Master.” Because the Master is my bread and butter, Bai Lang had mentioned this to Uncle Zhang before, so there was no need to emphasize it again.

Lu Yao, who had pretended to leave, was so startled by Bai Lang’s words that she stumbled and nearly fell. Steadying herself, she ran out, heartbroken.

So, the rumors were true… Bai Lang really did like her third uncle. No, she couldn’t just leave like this.

She had to find a way to marry Bai Lang and prevent him from stealing Qianqian’s happiness.

Lu Yao stomped back in, fuming, and declared, “Bai Lang, if you want to drive me away, I won’t go! This is my third uncle’s house.”

“Suit yourself. I have work to attend to,” Bai Lang replied as he walked out of the villa, heading to the company. The Master definitely wouldn’t be going in today!

With the Master and his wife busy trying for a baby, he had to lead the Lu Corporation’s executives in working hard to earn milk money. The life of a worker is truly tough!

“Ah! It’s Miss Yao’s wishful thinking!” Uncle Zhang muttered under his breath as he watched Bai Lang leave.

All the young people around the Third Master are a bit off!

His own son finally got married but doesn’t share a room with his wife. Bai Lang and Ding Fan are both over thirty and still haven’t figured things out.

All they care about is making money, money, money!

And now that the Third Master has figured things out, he’s at it day and night. Can his body even handle it?

“Miss Yao Yao, would you like to sit and watch TV or take a stroll around? Just please don’t go to the second floor and disturb the Third Master.”

“I know. You can go about your business!” Lu Yao forced a smile as she spoke.

“……” You know? Then why did you provoke Bai Lang just now?

Uncle Zhang kept his thoughts to himself, not daring to ask. This household truly couldn’t do without him!

…

Although Ye Qingyan was the subject of everyone’s gossip, it didn’t stop her from shopping for clothes.

Before entering the store, Song Yuntao had placed his card on the counter, telling her to pick whatever she wanted and swipe freely.

Satisfied, she walked out carrying bags of purchases, only to find Song Yuntao sitting on the ground with a face swollen like a pig’s head, staring blankly ahead.

Two bodyguards stood respectfully on either side of him. She rushed over, sobbing, and asked, “Brother Yuntao? Why are you still sitting on the ground?”

“Are you all dead? Hurry up and help the young master into the car! Don’t embarrass the Song family in public like this.”

Only after hearing Ye Qingyan’s words did Song Yuntao stop struggling. Once the car door closed, he burst out cursing, “You bitch! It’s all your fault! You said we should hand Qianqian over to Lu Zhenting, and now Qianqian won’t even look at me.”

“If I say something, you listen? Then if I tell you to treat me as well as you used to, can you do it?” Ye Qingyan retorted viciously.

“Treat you well? Don’t even think about it. I’ll never treat you well again. It’s all your fault,” Song Yuntao spat out angrily.

“Fine, fine, it’s all my fault. Brother Yuntao, don’t be angry! It breaks my heart to see you like this~~” Ye Qingyan cooed in a syrupy voice as she apologized.

She could only seethe with contempt in her heart. It was true that she had proposed the idea back then, but he had to be willing to go along with it himself!

Now, upon learning that Ye Qianqian had married the Third Master Lu, a man far superior to him, this guy was starting to act shamelessly!

When she was his, he didn’t cherish her; now that she wasn’t, he was unhappy again.

Wasn’t that just like her?

She only enjoyed having outstanding men fawn over her, never able to maintain affection for anyone for long. That was why she had left so easily back then.

Even though she had been having a great time out there, the moment she heard Song Yuntao was going to marry Ye Qianqian, she rushed back without hesitation to snatch him away.

Who would have thought the one she ended up with was such trash?

She felt nothing but mockery.

Still, even so, she wouldn’t go out of her way to ruin Ye Qianqian’s marriage. For one, the “Living King of Hell” was not someone to be trifled with.

Secondly, Big Brother Ye refused to acknowledge her, Xiao Feng had been driven out of Rongcheng, Lu Zhenting had been sent abroad for development, and her mother was now disabled.

Ever since she was old enough to understand, she knew her parents’ love was forbidden by society. She and her mother had no choice but to curry favor with Mrs. Ye.

After coming of age, she had once tried to persuade her mother to scheme and force Mrs. Ye to step aside. With the Ye brothers doting on her, they would surely bless her mother…

But her mother refused, saying she relished being favored by her father and openly receiving admiration from successful men.

Back then, her mother thought the status quo was perfect, and so did she. But all of that was destroyed by Ye Qianqian.

In her father’s heart, she was no longer the most important daughter!

That old hag Mrs. Ye despised her to the bone, and her three brothers wanted nothing to do with her either!

Now, her only support was the Song family. For the time being, she had to firmly secure her position as the eldest daughter-in-law of the Song family. If a better opportunity came along later, she could reconsider.

Having sorted through her thoughts, Ye Qingyan sobbed and leaned into Song Yuntao’s embrace.

The perfume was pungent, but Song Yuntao, driven by hormones, found the scent utterly intoxicating.

Forget it! after all, she was the woman he had once deeply loved. Seeing Ye Qingyan quietly weeping, he couldn’t bring himself to blame her any further.

Deep down, he knew he couldn’t entirely blame Yanyan for the marriage swap. His own indecisiveness had been the real mistake.

Now, what he felt most was regret. He never imagined the person he once loved so deeply could become so unrecognizable!

And the one he hadn’t loved before had now become someone he couldn’t forget!

When Qianqian looked at Third Master Lu, her smile was radiant, and she even called him “baby” in public!

But the smile she gave him was like frost flowers on a windowpane in the dead of winter, beautiful, yet piercingly cold.

He used to think she was madly in love with him, while he only loved Ye Qingyan. Looking back now, he realized she had never loved him at all.

Yet he could feel that her desire to marry him had been genuine. But he was the one who had lost her.

The thought of her nestled in Third Master Lu’s arms made him restless. Roughly, he slid his hand under Ye Qingyan’s clothes.

Ye Qingyan had had one-night stands with many different men, but she had never encountered anyone like Song Yuntao.

One moment he was acting desperate and miserable, and the next he was all over her. She found it amusing, she’d never played with this type before. There was no harm in indulging him a little.

So, the two of them started fooling around in the car. A few minutes later, Song Yuntao panted, “Baby, I’m hungry. Let’s go home and eat.”

“…” Ye Qingyan felt like slapping him twice, but she held back. “Husband~ I’m hungry too~”

…

Lu Family Old Residence.

Lu Zhenting made a video call from abroad to his grandfather. “Grandpa, you need to rein in Third Uncle. He just walked out in the middle of a meeting, leaving all the executives behind.”

“Your Third Uncle knows what he’s doing. He must have had something urgent to attend to,” the elderly Lu replied wearily.

“What could be so urgent? It’s just that Ye Qianqian ran into Young Master Song while shopping, and Third Uncle just…”

Grandpa Lu cut off his grandson urgently, “Zhenting! Your Third Aunt running into her ex-boyfriend is no small matter!”
