Chapter 129 Three people meet
The other woman was of the same age as Mr. Zhao Si. She was also dressed very elegantly and wore a gold hairpin with a dark green jade on her head. It was obvious that she was of a noble status.
At this time, the woman with the golden hairpin on her head was furious, her eyes were wide open, she pointed at the young woman and cursed: "You shameless bitch, Zhao Si seduced me casually and stole my unique clothes."
The young woman's face flushed, a trace of shame and anger flashed in her eyes, and she cursed inwardly - Zhao Si, you bastard, big liar, if it wasn't for this dress, she would not have agreed to go shopping with Zhao Si, but she did not show any weakness and retorted: "Don't slander me! There are many people with the same style of clothes in Beijing."
"Hmph! You're still trying to argue!" the middle-aged woman continued to scold. "I had the dress you're wearing custom-made at Hongjinfang a few days ago. It's the only one in the whole capital."
"Nonsense!" The young woman was a little annoyed. She said, why would Zhao Laosi think of going to Hongjinfang to customize clothes for her? It turned out that he was stealing his wife's clothes.
"Zhao Laosi, I caught you red-handed this time, what else do you have to say? I want a divorce!" the middle-aged woman shouted loudly, her voice sharp and piercing, attracting the attention of passers-by around them.
"Stop it! We're on the street here, you're making a fool of yourself!" Zhao Si looked embarrassed and tried to persuade the middle-aged woman to calm down.
"Hmph! You must sign the divorce agreement with me today." The middle-aged woman hugged Zhao Si's legs tightly, refusing to let go, with a look of determination on her face. The maid beside her took out a document from her bosom and handed it to the middle-aged woman.
"Isn't it just a piece of clothing? Why make such a fuss? Let's go home first!" said Mr. Zhao Si.
"Hmph! What do you mean by a piece of clothing? All the clothes from Hongjinfang are one-of-a-kind, and you have to queue up to make an order. They use unique color printing technology, and the patterns of each piece of clothing are almost different. I spent two hundred taels on this dress. How much money have you taken from me to squander? You must sign today, otherwise you have to give me five taels of compensation." said the middle-aged woman.
"Five hundred taels. Don't be too greedy. Your money is originally my money." Zhao Si said.
The middle-aged woman was amused and let go of Zhao Si. "You're dreaming, either give me the money or divorce me!"
"Is it that serious? It's just a few small coins. I'll give it to you tomorrow."
"Xiao Yao, bring that woman back to the mansion. Zhao Laosi, pay the money to redeem her. Otherwise, I will sell all the women in your house, including this one."
"I'm not from your house, you have no right to touch me." said the young woman.
"Humph, you stole my clothes and you still want to run away? No way. I've got you, little demon." The middle-aged woman didn't care. "If you want to leave, ask your lover Zhao Laosi to pay the ransom."
The young woman had no choice but to look at Zhao Si.
"Sell it, sell it, it's up to you." Zhao Si stomped his feet in anger.
"Little demon, take him away." The middle-aged woman patted the dust off her body and adjusted the golden hairpin on her head. "Tomorrow night, if you don't see the money, you won't see the person."
Zhao Si was really at a loss now. He looked at the beauty being held by the side, and before he could get her, she was destroyed by this annoying old woman. It seemed that he could not escape, so he had to find a way to get money. "Crazy woman. Wait for me. Money, money, money, all day long." He pushed through the crowd and left in a hurry.
Lin Yan remembered that Zhao Yuan had mentioned that the man in black had given money to Fourth Master Zhao. Lin Yan's intuition told her that with Fourth Master Zhao's character...
"Guard Li!"
"I'm here!" Guard Li appeared.
"Follow Zhao Si and see where he is going?"
"Yes."
There was nothing to do, so Lin Yan was about to go back when she heard someone calling her name. She looked up and saw a familiar man walking towards her.
"Ms. Lin, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to meet you here." Li Yiyuan said with a smile.
"What a coincidence. How come you are here?" Lin Yan asked in surprise.
"I came out for a stroll to see if there were any good business opportunities, but I didn't expect to meet you." Li Yiyuan said.
"What a coincidence!" Lin Yan sighed at the fate!
After a long separation, we met again while walking and chatting. Unexpectedly, Li Yiyuan had just returned from going to the south of the Yangtze River after returning to Beijing last time.
"Then are you still going to Jiangnan?" Lin Yan asked.
"I don't plan to go recently. Business is not going well. I don't plan to go for the time being."
.....................
Zhao Yuan came to pick up Lin Yan with great enthusiasm. Knowing that Lin Yan was in a bad mood recently, Zhao Lei said that women all like small animals and there is nothing that small animals can't handle.
So Zhao Yuan sent a letter to have someone bring a puppy from outside as fast as possible, and as soon as he arrived in the capital, he asked Wen Liu to deliver it hurriedly. All the way, he thought about Lin Yan's grateful look as she threw herself into his arms, and his mouth could hardly close.
Who would have thought that when walking on the street, I actually saw Lin Yan talking and laughing with a strange man on the street, and the little puppy was nowhere to be seen.
The good mood was like a bucket of cold water poured on my head, disappearing without a trace in an instant, replaced by burning anger. Zhao Yuan quickly stepped forward and grabbed Lin Yan, his eyes flashing with anger.
At this moment, it seemed as if the whole world had frozen. The air around them became heavy, and the atmosphere between the three people became extremely tense. They stared at each other, their eyes full of hostility and provocation, as if a fierce conflict would break out at any time.
This was a tense scene, with everyone on edge, waiting for the other side to react first. At this moment, time seemed to have stopped, with only endless tension and hostility spreading in the air.
Lin Yan was so frightened that she became speechless in an instant. Her body began to tremble slightly, an expression of fear and helplessness appeared on her face, and she forgot to think.
Li Yiyuan was the first to realize the situation and acted calmly. He stood tall and looked at Zhao Yuan, and said calmly, "Brother, I don't know where you came from, please let Miss Lin go."
Zhao Yuan frowned, stared at Li Yiyuan sharply, and asked, "Miss Lin? What is your relationship with him?"
Li Yiyuan smiled slightly and responded: "It doesn't matter what my relationship with her is. What's important is that you are in broad daylight and you come up to tease a girl for no reason. Please let go of your hand. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude." His eyes revealed determination and confidence.
Zhao Yuan smiled disdainfully and said teasingly, "Haha, do you still want to be a hero and save the beauty? Do you know who she is?"
Li Yiyuan straightened his spine and answered without flinching, "Lin Yan, Miss Lin, an old friend of mine, I will never allow anyone to bully her in front of me."
Zhao Yuan sneered and continued to ask, "Oh, I see. It seems like you two are really familiar with each other."
Li Yiyuan was silent for a moment, then spoke again: "So, who are you? Why are you arresting people in the street?"
A hint of pride flashed across Zhao Yuan's eyes, and he said loudly: "Humph, she is my wife!"
Li Yiyuan stared at Lin Yan with wide eyes, full of doubts. However, he did not easily believe Zhao Yuan's words, but turned his gaze to Lin Yan, hoping to get her confirmation.
Lin Yan lowered her head, her face was pale, her lips trembled slightly, but she didn't make any sound.
