Chapter: 1731

Mr. Ye hesitated for a moment before saying to Dong Ruolin: "Let's step aside and talk."

Dong Ruolin nodded hastily and followed Ye Chen to one side, her face tight with tension as she looked at him, afraid he would harbor resentment in his heart.

Ye Chen looked at her and asked, "When you were in Jinling, there was a pair of siblings called Zhen Nan Shuang Sha who tried to assassinate you, isn't that related to Kong De Long?"

Dong Ruolin hastily waved her hand: "That's not my cousin's doing, it's my uncle's."

"You're uncle?" Ye Chen furrowed his brow. "Is he here?"

Dong Ruolin shook her head and said, "According to the rumors after that incident, someone with great influence warned the Dong family, and my uncle got scared and fled abroad, never returning. This time, when grandmother passed away, I asked him to come back but he didn't."

Ye Chen nodded lightly and asked again: "So, you and your cousin Kong De Long have no conflicts, right?"

"That's right," Dong Ruolin hurriedly said. "My cousin is someone who likes to pretend, built up a bit of image and doesn't know any art, but hasn't done anything harmful in the first place."

As she was speaking, Dong Ruolin coquettishly begged: "So, Ye Chen, don't go too far with him today, give me some face, okay?"

Dong Ruolin's hands were already grasping Ye Chen's arm as she said this, lightly shaking and swaying it while her face was filled with pleading and coquettishness.

Ye Chen was helpless, knowing that since Dong Ruolin had pleaded so emotionally, he couldn't continue to cause trouble for her cousin either.

However, Kong De Long's act before was really a bit too much, and if I really let him off that easily, it would be too lenient for him.

Thinking about this, he then told Dong Ruolin, "Alright, since he's your cousin, I'll give you some face."

Dong Ruolin was overjoyed, excitedly saying, "Too thanks, Ye Chen!"

Ye Chen hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, I don't require him to swallow that strand of beads, but he still needs to accept other punishments, or else I fear he won't remember well."

Dong Ruolin asked urgently, "Ye Chen, are you prepared to let him accept some punishment? Won't it be even more severe than swallowing the beads?"

"It won't," Ye Chen said with a faint smile, "This is something good for him."

Dong Ruolin finally relaxed, saying with a hint of emotion, "Ye Chen, thanks to you, you've forgiven my brother, and that also gives me an opportunity, allowing me to properly repay you."

Ye Chen asked in surprise, "What do you plan to repay me?"

Dong Ruolin smiled deliberately, saying, "Of course, it's a promise in person, and then give you a big fat kid. What do you think?"

Ye Chen spoke sincerely, saying, "From now on, please say less of this sort, I'm your husband!"

Dong Ruolin nodded slightly, speaking seriously, "I know, the two of you are just pretending to get married, without any real marital commitment, and in reality, the best solution for both of you is to give each other freedom."

Ye Chen shook his head helplessly, saying, "I won't talk about this with you anymore; it's like playing the flute for a cow."

Having finished speaking, he turned back to the crowd.

The people saw him return and hurriedly made way for him. JrNovels.com
