Chapter 1096
Zhao Xiaotang was left speechless by Zhang Yang's words; indeed, she had no ground to stand on in this matter.
But Zhang Yang's words were really unpleasant, somewhat ungrateful, considering she had come with good intentions to warn him.
At this moment, Zhang Yang chuckled and said, "Instead of waiting here for me, you might as well contact your good friend and have her reel in those three sneaky kids to delete the photos and videos."
"I don't really mind, anyway; you're not the only one rumored to be with me."
Zhao Xiaotang was stunned again by this comment, "Who else have you been rumored with? Do you have other celebrity girlfriends besides Xia Xue?"
"Of course, I do. If I told you, it would scare you to death, but I won't tell you. You can slowly think about it yourself."
After saying that, Zhang Yang paid no more attention to Zhao Xiaotang, reckoning that after such a fuss, Chen Yun surely wouldn't dare be affectionate with him, and Xia Xue might come over shortly too.
Zhang Yang returned to the room and saw Chen Yun already dressed up, her face full of shame, standing there unsure of what to do. He smiled and comforted her, "Don't worry, Aunt Yun, it's okay, it's okay."
Actually, Zhang Yang wanted to say, even if Xia Xue found out, it wouldn't matter.
But Chen Yun was too thin-skinned, her cheeks red, saying, "As long as Xia Xue hasn't discovered our affair, you can't say anything, understood?"
Zhang Yang obediently nodded. Though he felt indifferent about it, he still had to consider Chen Yun's feelings.
A moment later, after Zhang Yang explained what had happened outside, Chen Yun was full of surprise.
"So now they misunderstand you and Zhao Xiaotang being together?" Chen Yun said, incredulously, with a hint of relief in her tone.
Seeing Chen Yun's expression, Zhang Yang found it somewhat amusing.
"Looks like you quite like this misunderstanding?" Zhang Yang teased.
"As long as it's not about people discovering our affair, everything else doesn't matter."
"And you're right, Li Yun'er and Zhao Xiaotang did indeed act wrongly. How could they do such a thing? They even drugged my water without me realizing it."
But at this point, Chen Yun began to plead for the two.
"Zhang Yang, regardless, fortunately, they didn't find someone else to bully me."
"Maybe their intentions weren't pure, but they didn't reach the point of being unforgivable. Just don't stoop to their level."
Zhang Yang pinched Chen Yun's cheek, then said, "Zhao Xiaotang is alright, but that Li Yun'er is really not great."
"If I get the chance, I don't mind giving her a little lesson. Of course, if she has the sense not to provoke me any further, for your sake, Aunt Yun, I don't necessarily have to hold a grudge."
To hear Zhang Yang say this, Chen Yun was already quite happy.
At this moment, Zhang Yang also noticed Xia Xue had called him several times.
It seemed Xia Xue would arrive soon, and seeing Chen Yun start to get nervous again, Zhang Yang softly comforted her, "Don't worry, I'm here, no need to be afraid."
Chen Yun nodded; facing what's inevitable is unavoidable. If Xia Xue really found out, if she could accept it then she would stay by Zhang Yang, if not, she could only force herself to leave.
After mentally preparing herself, Chen Yun's complexion improved a little, and she followed Zhang Yang to walk out together.
Zhao Xiaotang was still there making a call, apparently with her good friend Li Yun'er not answering.
Just then, Li Yun'er and Xia Xue pushed the door open and entered.
Upon entering, they saw Zhang Yang, Chen Yun, and Zhao Xiaotang all together, looking completely dressed.
This left Li Yun'er and Xia Xue a bit surprised, especially Li Yun'er.
She didn't understand why Zhao Xiaotang was here, along with Zhang Yang and Chen Yun, were they already done?
Looks like this man isn't that great either, finishing so quickly.
She wondered if the paparazzi came or not, could it be they haven't? If so, tonight's rushing around would have been in vain.
Xia Xue walked over to Zhang Yang and Chen Yun, "Are you guys okay?"
Xia Xue asked with concern.
Chen Yun's gaze was somewhat evasive, not daring to look Xia Xue in the eyes.
And this expression was seen by Xia Xue, who immediately reacted internally, thinking that what Li Yun'er said must be true.
Truth be told, Xia Xue didn't have much objection to Zhang Yang and Chen Yun being together; she was just a bit surprised.
Chen Yun had always been very kind to her, but Xia Xue had never imagined sharing a man with Chen Yun one day.
Deep down, it felt strange, but she didn't say anything more. Since it wasn't openly acknowledged, better to pretend it hadn't happened to save Aunt Yun from embarrassment.
Especially noticing that Zhang Yang was winking and making eyes at her, his expression even had a hint of flattery.
The meaning was obvious: see through it but don't expose it.
Xia Xue found it somewhat funny but also annoying. It seemed between Zhang Yang and Chen Yun, something must have happened long ago.
Thinking back now, those little bits in life seemed to have many suspicious parts.
Understanding this, Xia Xue felt Zhang Yang was really daring, even taking on her future mother-in-law.
At this moment, Zhang Yang spoke, "We're fine, why did you come over?"
Xia Xue glared at Zhang Yang, "I just came to have a look."
At the same time, Li Yun'er, seeing the three getting along so harmoniously, became unhappy; this wasn't the outcome she wanted.
"We came to catch you in the act, Zhang Yang and Chen Yun, both of you stop pretending."
"Just now, I was outside and heard you two doing those things inside."
Li Yun'er's words suddenly made the atmosphere awkward.
Chen Yun was at a loss, continuously picking at her fingers, while Zhang Yang and Xia Xue looked angrily at Li Yun'er.
That was their personal family matter, not for an outsider to meddle in.
But just as Zhang Yang and Xia Xue were about to say something, Zhao Xiaotang suddenly grabbed Li Yun'er's hand.
"Call those paparazzi back immediately."
Li Yun'er was a bit befuddled, what was going on now? Could Zhao Xiaotang be trying to help outsiders to deal with her?
"Wait, are you saying the paparazzi have already been here?" Zhao Xiaotang asked with exhilaration.
Xia Xue equally became tense, followed with a worried look at Zhang Yang and asked, "Did the paparazzi really come?"
Zhang Yang nodded, "They did come, and once they entered, they started snapping away. I even smashed one of their cameras, a mobile phone too."
Li Yun'er and Xia Xue indeed noticed some fragments on the ground.
Li Yun'er almost jumped for joy, so that meant they must have caught something.
It wasn't a wasted effort after all, Li Yun'er was extremely happy but found Zhao Xiaotang's behavior in front of her quite peculiar.
Li Yun'er thought Zhao Xiaotang was trying to help Zhang Yang get those photos or videos back.
So Li Yun'er said to Zhao Xiaotang, "I don't know what paparazzi you're talking about? I don't know any paparazzi."
