Chapter 740: Gossiping Behind The Scenes (2)

Alice was a young girl after all, so she could not keep quite a straight face like adults. When she heard what Joy said, she was so excited that she immediately forgot the identities of the two people in front of her. She said excitedly, “Really? I can also make many, many other types of pastries. I also made other pastries today, and they are also very delicious. Young Master Joy, do you want to try them too? Or do you want anything in particular? You can tell me. I can make them right away.”

When the person in charge heard Alice’s words, his heart almost jumped out of his chest. His face darkened slightly, and he coughed a few times in a low voice to wake up a certain someone who had been overwhelmed by excitement.

Alice finally came back to her senses. The smile on her face stiffened for a moment, and she said awkwardly, “Madam, I didn’t mean that. I just… just…”

The kitchen had returned to its original state after much difficulty. The chefs who were working hard stopped their work because of this small accident and looked at Zhao Youlin and the others again. The atmosphere in the kitchen suddenly became a little awkward and solemn.

Although Joy did not understand the twists and turns in the kitchen, he was very sensitive to the surrounding atmosphere.

The child sensed the change in the atmosphere in the room and instinctively hid behind Zhao Youlin. He grabbed Zhao Youlin’s clothes and called out in a low voice, “Mom…”

Zhao Youlin smiled. She knew that these people were more or less afraid of her. She said calmly, “Forget it. We still have to eat later. This child will definitely not be able to eat after eating so many pastries.”

As soon as Zhao Youlin said this, Alice’s expression became even more awkward. She opened her mouth, wanting to say something. However, Zhao Youlin added, “However, I can see that Joy likes to eat the pastries you made. Can we keep the remaining pastries and eat them after we finish eating?”

Alice was stunned, and so were the people in the kitchen. After a long while, Alice finally came back to her senses. Her eyes lit up as she understood what Zhao Youlin meant. She hurriedly nodded and said, “Yes, yes, of course!”

“Then it’s a deal.” Zhao Youlin looked at the girl who was somewhat similar to An Qi and smiled.

The awkward atmosphere in the kitchen finally warmed up again because of Zhao Youlin’s two sentences.

The others in the kitchen found that Zhao Youlin did not put on much airs and seemed to be easy to get along with, so they all walked past Zhao Youlin quietly and then coughed… carefully testing her.

After testing her a few times, Zhao Youlin and the people in the kitchen actually became familiar with each other in a very strange way.

Just as Zhao Youlin and the people in the kitchen were having a lively conversation, there was suddenly the sound of footsteps and noisy conversations coming from outside.

“Eh, where are they? Where are the people in the main residence?”

“Where else could they have gone? They probably went to pick up that little girl.”

The sharp female voice was a little harsh, and the laughter in the kitchen came to an abrupt end. She looked at Zhao Youlin with a pale face.

Zhao Youlin looked at them. What else could she not understand? The women were talking about her!

The kitchen was silent. Even the sound of a needle striking the ground could be heard, but the people outside remained clueless. They were still talking about the resentment and jealousy in their hearts.

Not long after… Zhao Youlin heard another voice from outside that was different from the previous two women. “I just don’t understand. Didn’t Tingfeng say that he hated that little girl? They’ve been married for three to four years, but he hasn’t brought her back for the former master to take a look at. Later, I heard that they even had a divorce and he let that little girl take the child away. How did they suddenly get back together? That’s fine. I also heard that not only did they quietly get back married, they even had a second child.”

“What’s there to be confused about? That little girl definitely didn’t intend to leave Tingfeng from the beginning. She was only playing hard to get. It’s easy to imagine such a thing. What kind of family does our Mu family hail from? What kind of family does that little girl come from? Would a normal person give up a golden goose so easily, give up the wealth and fame in their hands, and choose to get a divorce? It’s impossible!”

“Exactly. You should have heard about it, right? That woman basically forced her way into a one-night stand and forced a marriage. The child she gave birth to for Tingfeng was an accident. Ting Feng had always regarded that child as a stain and didn’t care about it. Haven’t you seen Ting Feng come home all these years and never brought that little girl and child back?”

The voices of the few women were so loud that it was impossible for Zhao Youlin and the others to pretend not to hear them. When Joy heard that person say that he was a stain on his father, the small snack in his mouth fell to the ground with a thud. His small face was full of helplessness, and his two big eyes, which were originally smiling, quickly pooled up with tears. She looked like a pitiful little beast that had been bullied, and the adults in the kitchen felt their hearts ache when they saw him.

However, those gossiping women outside did not notice anything. They continued to speak without fear of death, completely unaware that the main character of their topic was just a wall away from them. They also heard every word they said.

“Exactly. I heard that Tingfeng did not like that little bitch at that time. It was that little bitch who insisted on sticking to Tingfeng. Later on, she even drugged Tingfeng.”

“Drugged?”

“That’s right. How do you think that child came about? The former master wouldn’t have let that shameless little bitch into the house if it wasn’t for the sake of that child. Unfortunately, so what if she entered the house? I heard that that little bitch and Tingfeng had been married for a few years. Tingfeng basically didn’t pay much attention to her. She was just a flower vase at home.”

“Now that you mention it, I remember something. I seem to have heard someone say that Tingfeng was the one who initiated the divorce. No matter how that woman made a fuss, no matter how noisy or even suicidal she is, he was unmoved.”

As soon as that woman said that, everyone, including the women outside, could not help but gasp.

Everyone in the kitchen widened their eyes and looked at Zhao Youlin in disbelief, especially Joy.

Although he was only five years old and still had a lot of things he did not understand, he still watched a lot of television without fully understanding the scenes. The word suicide usually appeared in a lot of melodramatic TV dramas, so Joy naturally knew the meaning of this word.

At that moment, he nervously held Zhao Youlin’s hand. The tears in his big eyes began to flow again.
