Chapter 19: Realistic Gold Used to Bring Good Luck to Oneself (Fake Gold)
After a period of rest, Yan Chen's health had almost fully recovered, so Madam Yan asked him to move out.
It wasn't that Madam Yan wanted to get rid of him.
Instead, Yan Chen had already taken over all the company's affairs, allowing Yan Mingxuan to return and recuperate.
Madam Yan felt that he had just recovered and needed more rest. If he continued to stay at home, he would have to take care of three more people after a day's work, which would be too tiring.
Although Lu Miaomiao is now her goddaughter, she still intentionally or unintentionally tries to make advances towards Yan Chen.
The old man and Yan Xiu, one relying on being Yan Chen's grandfather, always use their status to intimidate others, while the other appears gentle and easy to talk to, but his words are actually barbed.
But Lu Miaomiao was someone she deliberately left at home.
The old man and Yan Xiu had just returned from abroad, and on the surface, they seemed to have reformed and would no longer compete with Yan Chen, so it was not appropriate to directly kick them out.
Yan Xiu is alright, after all, the old man is Yan Mingxuan's father and Yan Chen's grandfather.
They can't let people think that the Yan family would turn their backs on their own relatives for the sake of their inheritance.
Let Yan Chen move out and have some peace and quiet.
It'll also be good to see if Lu Miaomiao, unable to get close to Yan Chen, will make any mistakes in her haste.
Actually, those three people wouldn't have caused Yan Chen much trouble, but Madam Yan insisted and seemed extremely worried about him, so he had no choice but to go along with her wishes and move out.
*
Although Yan Chen was rather aloof, he did have some truly close friends. Knowing that he had recovered, they prepared to take him out to celebrate.
The location was chosen to be a bar owned by one of his friends, but what was placed in front of Yan Chen was juice.
"Brother Yan, you should take better care of your health. Drinking fruit juice is healthier."
"Yes, yes, this was really scary. When I went to see you at the hospital, the doctor said... never mind, never mind, I won't talk about it."
The group was chatting and laughing when suddenly someone's eyes widened and they reached out to touch the person next to them.
The man followed his gaze, his smile faded, and he frowned.
Yan Chen looked up as if he had sensed something, and saw Yun Qing walking quickly toward him.
“Yan Chen…”
Yun Qing is here to pester Yan Chen.
Thank goodness, she can finally go through this plot that blocks people, although it differs a bit from the original plot, as Lu Miaomiao is not there.
Yun Qing was stopped by someone before she could get close to Yan Chen.
"Isn't this Miss Lu? Miss Lu, is there something important that you've come to see your ex-fiancé?"
He emphasized the word "former" so heavily that it was almost as if he was pointing his finger at her nose and telling her that Yan Chen had nothing to do with her anymore.
Yun Qing looked at Yan Chen with a wronged expression, but Yan Chen just sat there with his eyes down, ignoring her completely.
The person who stopped her felt a little uncomfortable seeing her feigning pitifulness.
Others also did not welcome her.
Who in their circle doesn't know about Yan Chen's engagement to the eldest daughter of the Lu family?
After Yan Chen's accident, when they first went to see him, Yun Qing stayed by his side with great care, showing no sign of abandoning him, which moved them deeply.
Who knew that after the doctor declared that Yan Chen would not wake up, she abandoned him in the blink of an eye.
It's clear that all the previous affection was an act.
Although Lu Miaomiao is now Madam Yan's goddaughter, they still know something about the marriage to bring good luck.
In order to avoid marrying Yan Chen, Lu Yunqing put forward the real daughter of the Lu family to bring good luck, which is inconsistent with the usual gentle and kind image of Miss Lu.
They finally understood what kind of person this Miss Lu was.
If she insists on cutting ties completely with Yan Chen, she'll see the path she chose through even if she has to crawl on her knees, and they'll still respect her.
So now that he sees Yan Chen is better, he wants to win her back?
There's no such thing as a free lunch.
Tears welled up in Yun Qing's eyes, and she said pitifully, "Move aside, I need to see Yan Chen."
"Oh dear, Miss Lu, please don't cry! Anyone who doesn't know better would think we've been bullying you."
"It's not impossible for you to see Brother Yan if you want."
"boom……"
A bottle of strong liquor was placed in front of Yun Qing.
“Miss Lu, we have to follow the rules when doing things. Brother Yan isn’t someone you can just meet with anyone. Drink this bottle of wine and let us see your sincerity.”
No one else stopped them; in fact, they all seemed to be watching the spectacle with amusement.
Yun Qing looked at Yan Chen and saw that he still didn't react, her expression becoming even more pitiful.
She looked as if she was extremely heartbroken. Her frail body swayed, and she seemed about to collapse. Her appearance, as if she was about to cry but hadn't, was very pitiful.
Unfortunately, the people here are all heartless.
She stood there for a while, and seeing that the man showed no sign of backing down, she had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay, I'll drink it."
Yan Chen tightened his grip on the cup.
Yun Qing had already picked up the wine bottle, tilted her head back and drank it down. Tears slid down her cheeks, making her look like a pitiful little girl who had been bullied terribly, which was heartbreaking.
Yan Chen put down the cup in his hand, which tapped on the table with a soft sound. He looked up at Yun Qing and said in a deep voice, "That's enough!"
Yun Qing seemed not to hear him, and gulped down a few more mouthfuls of wine, but in reality she didn't swallow much; she was just putting on a good show.
In his memory, the original owner rarely drank alcohol and never drank much. He almost always just pretended to drink, always worried that he would lose control after drinking and ruin his image.
The novel doesn't specifically mention how much alcohol Lu Yunqing, the villainous female supporting character, can drink.
Therefore, Yunqing had to be careful to avoid accidentally getting drunk and causing trouble.
However, she overestimated her alcohol tolerance.
She felt the bar lights were making her increasingly dizzy.
[System, I feel a little dizzy.]
[Host, are you drunk?]
Oh no! The original owner's alcohol tolerance was terrible.
What should we do now?
The host is drunk, so he won't talk nonsense, right?
The wine bottle in Yun Qing's hand suddenly crashed to the ground and shattered.
She felt increasingly dizzy, stumbled, and almost stepped on shards of a broken bottle.
She felt someone pull her, and she was very unhappy, so she tried to slap the person away, saying, "Don't pull me, I'm dizzy."
Seeing her dazed look and her inability to stand, Yan Chen sternly picked her up and turned to leave.
The others exchanged bewildered glances.
After a long while, someone cautiously spoke up: "Brother Yan's behavior, could it be... that he still has feelings for you?"
"How could that be! Brother Yan is such a proud person."
Although they said that, they were actually a little unsure.
The last few people felt disheartened and simply left early.
Yan Chen was seething with anger. After carrying Yun Qing into the car, he slammed the door shut so loudly that even the driver trembled.
Yun Qing was also frightened and shrank into a corner, looking at him with a terrified expression. "Who are you! What do you want to do?"
Yan Chen really wanted to question her: It's just acting, why do you have to put in so much effort?
I've never seen her act with such sincerity before.
After he woke up, she texted and called him every day, acting as if she cared about him a lot, but she never came to see him even once!
But in the end, he didn't say anything. He just signaled the driver to start the car, then pulled Yun Qing back and tried to make her sit down properly.
As a result, Yun Qing slapped his hand repeatedly, yelling, "Let go of me! You're a human trafficker!"
