Fierce Ex-wife: President, Please Be Careful Chapter 159
Advertisement
With this thought in mind, Zhao Youlin could not help but remember seeing Li Yan and Lu Shu on the streets that day.
That day, after she went back home, Zhao Youlin made a few calls and asked someone to help her investigate these two people, but after investigating for a long time, she did not manage to figure out what was going on with them.
Aside from knowing that Li Yan started harboring a secret crush on her a few years ago and Lu Shu had been paying attention to Li Yan for a long time, she could not figure out anything else.
This caused Zhao Youlin to feel really troubled. At that time, there were not many people who provided support to the warehouse, but after investigating for a long time and practically looking into their ancestors as well, Zhao Youlin still did not manage to find anything conclusive.
Just now, when she suddenly heard Mu Chen say that he found the criminals, she thought that the boy had actually helped her find the traitor hiding in the police station, but she did not expect…
She might be disappointed, but Zhao Youlin still had to fight back a smile. Since Mu Chen thought that she was just killed by those drug dealers, then she would go along with it and make him think that way.
Zhao Youlin knew that Mu Chen was bothered by her death and believed that he had not protected her well, which was why this tragedy happened. But what happened at that time had nothing to do with Mu Chen.
She was to blame for being too careless and trusting the people behind her too much, which was why she did not want him to live with that sort of trauma.
Of course, Zhao Youlin was also worried that with how hot-tempered Mu Chen was and how unskilled he was in hiding his real emotions, he would definitely jump into a rage when he learned that her death was due to someone pulling the strings in the dark. At that time, not only would he alert the enemy, he might even end up getting himself killed.
That was why before this case was solved, Zhao Youlin felt that it would be better for him not to tell anyone, including Mu Chen and Luo Weibing.

"I see. Sister Youlin will definitely feel proud of you for working so hard for her."
Mu Chen scratched his head shyly. In an instant, he returned to that innocent and foolish look that Zhao Youlin was familiar with.
Mu Chen did not know what was wrong with him. It was clear that this was the first time meeting this woman, and she was a stranger to him in all aspects, but when he heard what she said, he suddenly felt a warmth in his heart, and a familiar wave of happiness washed over his heart, making him feel that… the person saying those words was the person who had already left.
Perhaps it was because this person was a good friend of Sister Lin's, and birds of a feather flocked together, causing some part of her to assimilate with Sister Lin. That was why Mu Chen could find a sense of familiarity from her.
Zhao Youlin cast a glance at Mu Chen. Once she was certain that he did not suspect anything, she could look away from Mu Chen at ease and shift her attention to An Kexin.
"You're An Kexin? Sister Youlin often talks about you as well. However, you're a bit different from what Sister Youlin said about you."
An Kexin was a little stunned. Clearly, she did not expect that Zhao Youlin would talk about her as well. She was stunned for a long while before she asked in a slightly shy and curious manner, "Sister Zhao talked about me as well? What did she say?"
"She said…" When Zhao Youlin saw how curious and nervous An Kexin was but was trying her best not to show it, which made her look really cute, Zhao Youlin mischievously decided to keep her hanging before she said airily, "She said that you're a cute and energetic girl. You have a good heart and a sweet mouth. You're a lovable girl, and whoever marries you in the future must have done something good in their previous lives."
The girl was pure, and after she heard what Zhao Youlin said, her eyes lit up, and she said happily, "Did Sister Zhao really say that?"
"Of course, why would I lie to you?" Zhao Youlin felt amused when she saw how surprised the girl was.

She originally thought that those words would make An Kexin open up her heart and continue talking to her, but to her surprise, after An Kexin became happy, her face started growing red uncontrollably.
More surprisingly was that after Mu Chen saw that An Kexin became shy, he also became stiff. He cleared his throat a little and reached out quietly to hold An Kexin's hand.
This time, it was Zhao Youlin's turn to be stunned. She widened her eyes and stared at the two youngsters for a while before she finally wrapped it around her head and pointed at them in surprise as she said, "Both of you are…?"
An Kexin's face turned red, and she could not say anything. Mu Chen also looked a little embarrassed and happy. After a long while, he mumbled, "Um, I proposed to Xiao Xin last month, and we're going to get married at the end of next month. We came over here today to tell Sister Lin that I took revenge for her and also to tell her about this. After all, she always said that I'd never get a wife, and that I'll always be alone."
There was a resentful tone in his voice, but the nostalgia was even more prominent. He was missing the older sister who always nagged at him, cared for him in secret, and was a real softie at heart despite her wicked tongue.
An Kexin saw Mu Chen's eyes suddenly turning red as he spoke, and she immediately knew what he was thinking. She held his hand tighter and quietly gave him comfort.
Mu Chen was stunned for a moment before he turned his head to look at An Kexin. Both of them smiled, and a sense of synergy that no one could interfere with appeared between them.
Zhao Youlin saw all this, and she smiled a little. She also felt a little relieved.
She knew that Mu Chen liked An Kexin since a long time ago, but the boy was shy. He liked her a lot, but he could never say it.
An Kexin might be lively and an extrovert, but she was a girl. If Mu Chen did not take the initiative, the girl would not dare act recklessly even though she liked him herself because she was worried that she was overthinking things.
Last time, she had urged the boy overtly and covertly in hopes that he would be more proactive, but the boy never seemed to understand what she was trying to do, causing Zhao Youlin to worry about him quite a lot. She did not expect that this accident would turn out to be a blessing in disguise and make this boy finally confess to the girl. In just a few months, they were already talking about marriage!
But this was good too. Mu Chen was so carefree that he was careless. While An Kexin was energetic and an extrovert, she was sensitive and empathic. If they were together, if Mu Chen did not consider something, An Kexin could more or less help him.
"Congratulations. Both of you are people Sister Youlin kept in her heart while she was alive. Now that you're together, I believe that Sister Youlin would feel happy if she knew about it. Mu Chen, Kexin is a good girl, so don't let her down."
Logically speaking, right now, Zhao Youlin appeared to be slightly younger than Mu Chen, and this was the first time they met, so she would appear to be too friendly if she said those things.
But Mu Chen and An Kexin were immersed in the joy of almost becoming married to each other. They did not mind it, and when they heard what Zhao Youlin said, they just nodded in agreement.
Then, in a cordial manner, the three of them talked about Zhao Youlin before they decided to leave.
After taking a few steps to leave, Mu Chen suddenly stopped and seemed to have remembered something. He brought out something from his pocket and wanted to place it in front of the tomb.
When Zhao Youlin saw it, her expression changed a little, and she could not help but cry out in surprise, "That's…"

Pawns of God
Five Lines PitchJoin Mark in his fight against a God and change the game's destiny! Delve into a slow-paced story focused on the progression of the main party and the development of the world. Mark himself will be narrating his life inside the game, and to a much lesser extend outside. Guild building, economy, and strategy are the central pieces of the novel. Mark is not overpowered, he will have to build his own power through action-packed battles, trials, traumas, love, and death. Accompany him, the healer and the strategist, an agent of chaos, in the adventure of his life. Without further preamble, I will let Mark take the mic. SynopsisHi! My name is Mark. This is my story, my life as I live it day after day. I’m in my thirties, and there’s nothing I love more than playing online games. I’ve just joined the action on the newest VRMMO game, Pawns of God. An immersive experience you can play while sleeping. Of course, as a game that takes pride in its long development and technological advances, everything inside seems and feels real. Beware, this is not a game-turns-real story. I love my own world and I would detest being summoned into another one. If that ever happens, I’ll just quickly take my life and be done with it. I play with my friends, in a party of 5. We have taken several roles, but lately, I've come to love being a healer. It's my secret ambition to someday be the shotcaller. I am not overpowered. If there is any bug or exploit in the game, they are yet to be discovered. Anyhow, for a game of this scale, the company is pouring all of its resources into test servers, QA, and beta tests. I don’t expect to find any, so I’ll be playing the game just like any other person. I must say, though, I am easily distracted, as you will immediately notice once you start. I'm working on it, I promise to improve! I am no hero. Being in my 30s, my heart is too old for this shit. I wouldn’t mind being one, of course. Who hasn’t dreamt of it? Either way, I’m not doing any grand quest to save the world. Whatever the game throws to their users, I’ll be there to experience it. Most of my life, at least the interesting parts that I’ll be narrating, happen inside the game itself. Rarely, there will be some IRL (In Real Life) chapters. You’ll understand, however, that as a freelance software developer, there is not much I can entertain you with when outside the game. Did I say I love games? Well, I’m also a fan of LitRPG literature. You know, journeys of magic, relationships, personal development, items, skills, discovery… In the spirit of not overwhelming my public, I’ll condense each chapter into circa 1500 words. You might have noticed some tags over this story, let me elaborate. I like to swear. I’m not shy when it comes to cursing my enemies, friends, or even myself. When there’s blood, I tell it as I see it. And… it hurts to admit it, but I’m not a casanova. Of course, this doesn’t mean that I won’t ever find love. So, in case I do end up finding it, let’s keep my sexual options open. As for traumas, none yet, but the future is vast and unknown.
