The Time-Limited Love and Marriage-Chapter 215
Chapter 215: Chapter 215
Elsewhere, Fu Youhan rushed to the warehouse with Chi Jing—
All his subordinates were strictly poised at the entrance of the warehouse.
Seeing Fu Youhan getting out of the car, Er Yao approached immediately.
"Where is the consignment?"
"Inside."
Er Yao then led Fu Youhan into the warehouse, bringing him to the goods covered by a green tarpaulin.
Fu Youhan lifted a portion and found that they were indeed the experimental JK00.
Moreover, these goods were nearly flawless, with a smoothness even better than what Fu Youhan had in mind. It was evident that they were of high value.
But the more perfect the goods, the more suspicious the motives behind suddenly delivering these treasures into their hands!
"Where is Old John?" A glint of darkness flashed in Fu Youhan’s deep black eyes.
"He’s gone!" Er Yao said.
"Didn’t I tell you to keep him here?" Fu Youhan was somewhat displeased.
Er Yao quickly explained, "It’s not that I didn’t want to keep him, but Old John said, he’s left the goods and even if he stayed, he wouldn’t disclose any useful information to us."
Fu Youhan lit a cigarette, and the sound of his lighter was particularly grating in the quiet warehouse.
Amid the tendrils of smoke, the man’s gaze fell once more on the goods.
Was Old John giving him goods worth over ten billion just for the taking?
Anyone could see something was fishy about this.
Chi Jing walked around the goods, checking numerous items and finding no issues, then stopped beside Fu Youhan to say,
"I think that old man might be framing us. No matter how you look at it, he doesn’t seem like someone to repay kindness with kindness."
The last time they hadn’t snatched the goods from them, no confrontation brought any outcome.
And today, they had suddenly handed over a consignment to them...
Something was definitely off!
"First, get these goods transferred for storage and secretly investigate who lost this consignment."
Fu Youhan smoked several cigarettes but couldn’t figure out what Old John was playing at.
It suddenly came to mind that during his last encounter with Old John, he seemed to have been incessantly staring at Jiang Moxi.
Could it be...
As this ridiculous notion surfaced in his mind, Chi Jing suddenly started debriefing him.
"The other day, Young Master Si forced the Liu Family heiress and her sisters to repeatedly copy the Diamond Sutra at Night Color."
"The Liu Family’s heiress? Liu Nan?" Fu Youhan raised an eyebrow.
The Liu Family was also considered central to Yan City’s upper echelons, so he was somewhat familiar with the Liu Family.
"Yeah, it’s said she dated Young Master Si for a few days, then they broke up abruptly and she had to copy the Diamond Sutra as punishment."
Both the Liu Family and the Si Family rose to wealth through these trades, so Chi Jing suspected whether a conflict between the two families had brewed, deliberately setting a trap for each other, wishing to direct their private drama where both contenders end, leaving the third-party victor?
But Fu Youhan, with his eyes slightly narrowed, incisively said, "The Diamond Sutra?"
Mentioning the Diamond Sutra reminded Fu Youhan of Jiang Moxi.
During their trip to the hot springs, Jiang Moxi had used the Diamond Sutra to chase away a fake monk on the road.
He thought he must be poisoned by something called Jiang Moxi.
Otherwise, how could everything he encountered somehow lead to thinking of Jiang Moxi?
Dismissing his playful smile, Fu Youhan said, "It shouldn’t be these two families; first, investigate who lost this consignment. As for Old John... I will make him spill it himself."

That night, Ye Chen dropped off Qin Shuang and her family at the airport.
"I really didn’t expect just coming for a musical performance would have me stay in Yan City until now."
Upon reaching the security checkpoint, Qin Shuang looked back with a profound sense of emotion.
But in fact, she was merely trying to ignite her parents’ fury.
After being humiliated by Jiang Moxi and Yu Dingding, Qin Shuang has been lingering in the hospital, using her Qin Family status to pressure the medical staff into making her condition seem extremely serious.
The truth is, she wanted her parents to know that she was truly bullied this time, hoping they would intervene or support her in taking care of Jiang Moxi and Yu Dingding.
But what Qin Shuang didn’t expect was that just as she voiced her lament, Ye Chen comforted her softly.
"Then don’t run out in the cold next time, didn’t the doctor say that it’s best for your condition not to catch a chill?"
Qin Shuang’s well-prepared grievances stalled into silence by Ye Chen.
She had been playing the part that it was Yu Dingding’s beating that triggered her illness!
Yet, Ye Chen shifted everything to catching a chill, which clearly indicates he is defending Yu Dingding!
This realization drove Qin Shuang to madness with jealousy...
Yes, whether it was Mo Yifeng or Ye Chen, Qin Shuang only enjoyed having them revolve around her, not truly liking them.
So, when they were good with Yu Dingding, she would use all means to dig them back from Yu Dingding’s side.
Now that Ye Chen has strayed from her control, Qin Shuang felt an unbearable anxiety.
Qin Shuang’s face was full of dark clouds, with jealousy and indignation filling her eyes.
Just as she was about to say something, Mo Yifeng abruptly cut her off: "Time to go in."
Mo Yifeng even came directly, dragging her towards the security check.
Qin Shuang, of course, knew that Mo Yifeng was just trying to prevent her from complaining about Yu Dingding to Ye Chen, for fear that they would join forces to harm Yu Dingding again.
Just like how Ye Chen always deliberately played down Yu Dingding’s role in her hospitalization in front of her parents.
They both protected Yu Dingding in their ways.
What on earth did Yu Dingding do to deserve such protection from these two men?
She has already become the lowly Oiran, she was even less qualified to compete with her for affection!
So, the care from Ye Chen and Mo Yifeng only made her more determined to destroy Yu Dingding.
Unfortunately, Qin Shuang was no match for Mo Yifeng’s strength; she couldn’t shrug him off.
Furthermore, her parents and Ye Chen, seeing Mo Yifeng holding her hand, all thought that the betrothed couple was fostering affection and turned their gazes away to spare them the embarrassment.
And this is how Qin Shuang, furious and irritated, was brought onto the plane by Mo Yifeng.
After taking their respective seats, Qin Shuang’s frustration and rage multiplied.
With her eyes reddening, she confronted Mo Yifeng, "Mo Yifeng, why are you still protecting Yu Dingding so much, do you still have feelings for her?"
She thought that even if Mo Yifeng had feelings for Yu Dingding, he would at least pretend in front of her since they were betrothed.
But to her surprise, Mo Yifeng didn’t even bother to pretend anymore. freewebnøvel.coɱ
"Isn’t this something you’ve always been clear about? Why ask the obvious?"
"You..." Qin Shuang trembled with rage, tasting the blood in her own mouth.
"If you want me to marry you, stop causing trouble and bothering her."
Mo Yifeng thought, it was because he had wrongly trusted this woman full of lies that led to Yu Dingding’s tragedy.
If marrying Qin Shuang would make her calm down and stop targeting Yu Dingding, then it would be a form of compensation to Yu Dingding.
After saying this, Mo Yifeng seemed bored even looking at Qin Shuang’s aggrieved and defiant face and simply picked up the eye mask and put it on.
But because he wore an eye mask, he naturally didn’t see Qin Shuang’s eyes, red almost to the point of bleeding...
Very good!
Everyone is protecting Yu Dingding, trampling on her, Qin Shuang’s, self-esteem, then don’t blame her for completely ruining Yu Dingding!

After sending off the Qin Family, Ye Chen returned to Night Color and couldn’t resist thinking of Yu Dingding, and immediately went to the eighth floor to bring Yu Dingding back to the ninth floor personally.
Seeing this, Jiang Moxi also followed back to the ninth floor.
Fu Youhan too received Ye Chen’s invitation to drink and came to Night Color.
The four of them gathered in this private room, and everything seemed to go back to how it was before.
But at that moment, a waiter pushed open the door of the private room: "Miss Yu, your ordered drinks."
The waiter, holding the drinks, headed straight towards Yu Dingding...
