Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful

Chapter 704 Impending Disaster (2)

Xiao Wen fell to the ground with a numb expression. It was only at that moment that she finally understood what kind of disaster she had caused due to her momentary indulgement in her obsession.

Everyone was waiting for the former master to make a decision. Zhao Youlin was finished with her verbal lashing. She turned around and glanced at the former master.

The former master had a fierce expression on his face. It was rare for him to lose control as he shouted at Uncle Zhao, “Call that brat of mine. Tell him to bring that b*tch over to see me immediately.”

Uncle Zhao did not dare to dally about and hurriedly ran over to call for help.

At that moment, Han Yichen’s phone suddenly rang

Han Yichen was hugging An Yue and consoling her in a low voice when he suddenly heard the sound of the phone. He frowned and walked to the side apologetically under everyone’s gazes before picking up the phone.

“Yes, that’s right, it’s me. They’ve confessed? Yes, alright, you’ve worked hard. I’ll treat you to a meal some other day. That’s all. I still have something to do here. I’ll hang up first. Goodbye.”

Han Yichen hung up the phone and walked back to where Zhao Youlin and the others were with a cold expression on his face.

They noted that his expression was a little ugly. They looked at each other. An Yue could not help but ask, “Chen, what’s wrong? Why do you look so upset?”

Han Yichen held An Yue’s hand and tried his best to calm down before he said faintly, “A call from someone at the police station.”

“Huh?”

“The kidnappers have confessed.”

Duan Yarong and the others were shocked when they heard this. They asked in surprise, “So those kidnappers confessed. The person who paid them is…”

“It’s said that… It’s a lady surnamed Sun.”

Everyone present was shocked.

“Sun… Sun…” the former master gripped his walking stick forcefully. His face turned even darker. He was never this furious.

Zhao Youlin, who was standing at the side, narrowed her eyes dangerously when she heard Han Yichen’s words. A cold light flashed across her eyes!

On the other side, Sun Fengzi, who had no idea that she was about to be in big trouble, was still anxiously waiting for news of a certain someone at home. Zhao Yifei had just returned home when he saw her anxious expression. He furrowed his brows and asked, “Mom, what’s wrong?”

Whenever he appeared, Sun Fengzi’s attention would immediately be on him. However, something was wrong with her today. No matter how he called out, she would not respond

Zhao Yifei called out to Sun Fengzi a few more times. Only then did Sun Fengzi seem to have woken up from a dream. She forced a smile and said, “Yifei, you’re back. Why didn’t you say anything? I didn’t even see you.”

Zhao Yifei looked at Sun Fengzi strangely. He had a feeling that Sun Fengzi was hiding something from him. “Mom, what’s wrong with you today? What do you mean? I called you several times just now, but you were lost in thought and didn’t hear me at all.”

“Is that so?” The smile on Sun Fengzi’s face stiffened, “I’m sorry, I was thinking about something and didn’t notice you. Are you hungry? You just came back from the company and haven’t eaten yet, right? Wait a minute, I will go to the kitchen to prepare lunch for you.”

Sun Fengzi quickly got up and ran to the kitchen. No matter how it looked, she seemed to be fleeing from a crime scene.

Zhao Yifei looked at Sun Fengzi’s back and vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he couldn’t be sure. He stopped thinking about it. He just sat in his original position and turned on the TV. He watched the news while waiting for the meal. Sun Fengzi had just asked the kitchen to prepare the food. When she was about to sit down, she saw Zhao Shunchang rushing in from outside.

“Shunchang, you’re back? Just in time. We’re about to have dinner. Let’s eat together.” Sun Fengzi was feeling guilty. Even Zhao Shunchang, whom she usually did not fancy, became a target for her to dote on.

Unfortunately, at that moment, Zhao Shunchang was not in the mood to appreciate Sun Fengzi’s rare change in attitude towards him. His face was frighteningly gloomy. “What’s there to eat at this time? Hurry up and follow me to see the former master.”

God knows, in the entire Zhao family, besides Zhao Shunrong, Zhao Shunchang was most afraid of the former master. This fear was inextricably linked to the former master’s accumulated prestige over the years.

If Zhao Shunrong was just a strict figure to him, then the former master was definitely a demon in his impression. It was fine if he didn’t get angry, but if he ever got angry, he could scare people to death.

Sun Fengzi’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that Zhao Shunchang was going to take her to the former master. She said stiffly, “Why this sudden?”

“How would I know? The former master suddenly called me and asked me to take you back to the main residence. From Uncle Zhao’s tone, he seemed to be in a hurry. The former master usually doesn’t care much about family matters. If he is suddenly acting like this, something major must have happened.”

As Zhao Shunchang spoke, he seemed to have realized something as he turned to look at Sun Fengzi. He probed her. “Did you do something again?”

Sun Fengzi’s heart sank slightly, but she tried her best to act casually. She forced a smile and said, “I have been staying at home all day these days. What could I do to anger him?”

Zhao Shunchang glanced at Sun Fengzi. His eyes were full of doubt, but he did not continue asking. He sighed and said, “Since you haven’t done anything, hurry up and follow me now.”

“No…” Sun Fengzi subconsciously felt that there was a risk for her to go, so she refused him vehemently. “I’m not going!”

“You… The former master has already called. How can you not go?”

Sun Fengzi’s eyes flickered. She tried her best to appear firm. “Do I have to go just because he asked me to? Usually, he only takes note of your precious big brother’s family and that little slut Zhao Youlin. You are also his son, and Yifei is also his grandson. However, even when Yifei was injured and hospitalized, he never once asked. Now, he suddenly remembers us, so we have to go and see him just because he called? We’re not some pet animals that come to heel just because we are summoned. I’m not playing along! Moreover… he favors your big brother and sister-in-law so much. If he suddenly calls us over, he must only be thinking of making things difficult for us. I’m not going! No, no, no, no!”

When Sun Fengzi said this, Zhao Shunchang’s face turned ugly. Zhao Yifei sat quietly at the side and observed Sun Fengzi’s movements.

Unlike Zhao Shunchang, who was usually afraid of his wife and did not dare to look at his wife’s face most of the time, Zhao Yifei had been in Sun Fengzi’s heart for so many years. He knew his mother well.

Sun Fengzi’s reaction now clearly showed that she had done something that she should not have done. She looked very guilty. Zhao Yifei frowned. Just as he was about to support his mother, the phone at home rang.

“Sir, it’s the former master.” The butler’s shout shocked the three people in the confrontation.
