actionChapter 63: Future Plan (2)
“Sparta?” Zhao Youlin turned her head around and she looked at the silly-looking husky not far from her. She smiled faintly and said, “It’s true that it looks obedient. We’ll name it Sparta, then.”
“Sparta… Sparta…” When Joy got permission from his mother, he joyfully waved at the dumb Sparta and shouted its new name.
Sparta seemed to understand him. It happily came to Joy and ran around him.
When Zhao Youlin saw this, she could not help but smile again, “It looks like Sparta likes its new name, Joy.”
“Mhm mhm…” Joy looked at Sparta at his feet. His big eyes sparkled with happiness.
Zhao Youlin was relieved when she saw Joy and Sparta having a good time together. She picked up the magazine on the floor and went up to her son and the pet. She pointed at the two pictures from the magazine and smiled faintly as she said, “Joy, I would like to open a store. Do you think I should open a pastry store or a clothing store?”
Joy looked at the two pictures curiously. In the end, he focused on the picture with cakes and desserts. He looked at Zhao Youlin expectantly and said, “Mommy…”
Meanwhile, Sparta refused to be left alone and went up to them. Its eyes sparkled when it saw the picture with delicious food. Then, it stared at Zhao Youlin with Joy. Its teary eyes were filled with gleefulness.
Zhao Youlin was startled. She did not know if she should laugh or cry when she saw the silly cute looks of her child and the pet. Both of them showed matching expressions of begging for food.
She thought of how silly it was of her to actually ask a child question like this. In the eyes of a child, food was always more important than anything else. Oh well. This seemed to be a good choice, after all.
“We still have the cupcakes that I bought from this morning inside the fridge. Go and take it yourself. Just take one. The cupcakes are really sweet. You’ll have tooth decay if you overeat them.”
“Mhm mhm…” Joy happily gave a peck on Zhao Youlin’s cheek, and he went in the direction of the fridge with his short legs. When Sparta saw Joy leaving, it also stumbled over to catch him up.
Zhao Youlin smiled from the bottom of her heart when she looked at the fading silhouette of the two cute creatures. However, the next moment, she seemed to recall something. Her face darkened. She gently touched the corner of her lips with fingertips.
There was a small crack on it. She could still vaguely taste a tinge of blood when she pursed her lips. She had accidentally bit it when she bit Mu Tingfeng in the pet shop.
Zhao Youlin could not help but gnash her teeth the moment she recalled how that uncouth rich person who just flung money everywhere had humiliated her. His image in her mind immediately became worse. ‘You’re rich, so what?! Evil rich man! Hmph! You better not run into me again, otherwise, I will bite you each time I see you!’
Mu Tingfeng seemed to have felt her eerie malice from afar while he was inside the President’s office at Mu Feng Group. He inevitably felt a chill sent down his spine and was surprised. However, there was not even the slightest bit of hint seen from his expression as he was accustomed to keeping a straight face. He raised his gaze and shot a glance at the man in front of him. He said in a low voice, “Did you check it thoroughly?”
“Yes, I did,” Xia Zhetao obsequiously handed over the documents he had compiled after his investigation.
One had to admit that as the personal assistant of the president, Xia Zhetao was very efficient at his work. He had investigated all that had happened within the past few days since Zhao Youlin moved out of the Mu family in detail. It only took him one night.
Mu Tingfeng silently flipped through and read the information handed over to him. When he came across the information about Zhao Youlin’s injuries being caused by the Zhao family who had looked for her to force her to apologize to him, he paused. A hint of puzzlement darted across his eyes.
‘No wonder she hated me so much when she saw me in the pet shop at that time. Could this be the reason for her hatred?
