"That's good. Also, call Miss Yue and ask if she's been restricted by Young Master Ye again. If she's not restricted and is genuinely too busy, then we can rest assured."
"Okay, I'll call her after I finish my coffee."
To put Lu Tingyun's mind at ease, Jiang Mengru dialed Yue Yirou's number in front of him after finishing her coffee.
Yue Yirou's phone was in the bedroom, and she was currently taking a walk outside with Aunt Wu while pushing a stroller.
When Jiang Mengru called, Yan Ye had just gone back to his room to find something. He heard Yue Yirou's phone vibrating, so he went over, picked it up, and saw that it was Jiang Mengru calling. He then threw it back.
Every time Jiang Mengru calls, it's basically to ask his woman out. Just thinking about her makes him angry. He doesn't want to hear her voice at all, and of course, he doesn't want to see her either.
After Jiang Mengru called Yue Yirou's mobile phone twice without getting an answer, she dialed Xingye Pavilion's landline number.
Inside the main room of Xingye Pavilion, Yan Ye was upstairs, Xue Tao had gone to the dining hall to select ingredients, Yue Yirou and Aunt Wu were taking a walk outside, and Acheng and Zhang Qier had gone out to investigate something again. Jiang Mengru's call still went unanswered.
How is this going?
Why won't they answer the phone?
Is Yan Ye in a fit of rage?
“Yi Rou isn’t answering the phone, and no one answers the landline either.” Jiang Mengru looked at Lu Tingyun, her face full of worry.
Lu Tingyun was also somewhat worried. He was concerned that Yan Ye had deprived Yue Yirou of her freedom and that he had sent people to investigate what had happened in the park that day.
He was too impulsive and too impatient.
Lu Tingyun was filled with remorse.
"Shaojun, do you think Yirou has really been imprisoned by Yan Ye again?"
"I don't know." Lu Tingyun shook his head. "Call Miss Yue again later. If she still doesn't answer, she may really be under Ye Shao's control again."
Lu Tingyun and Jiang Mengru decided that if Yue Yirou still didn't answer the phone later, they would go to Xingye Pavilion to find her.
Half an hour later, Jiang Mengru dialed Yue Yirou's mobile phone number again, but still no one answered.
"Shaojun, Yirou is still not answering the phone. She must be being held captive by Yan Ye. Let's go to Xingye Pavilion and plead for her."
Jiang Mengru turned to leave, but Lu Tingyun grabbed her arm: "Wait, call Xingye Pavilion's landline and see if anyone answers."
As Yue Yirou pushed the stroller and entered the house with Aunt Wu, the phone rang. Aunt Wu went over and answered it.
"Okay, please wait a moment, Madam, it's Miss Jiang on the phone."
Mengru's phone call?
Wasn't her rejection obvious enough last night?
Yue Yirou walked over and took the microphone: "Mengru, I really don't have time today." Before Acheng and the others found out whether what happened at the park that day was an accident or something else, she didn't want to go out, nor did she dare to go out.
"Yi Rou, are you really alright? Young Master Ye didn't take away your freedom, did he?" Jiang Mengru asked excitedly.
"No, didn't I already tell you last night?"
"Then why didn't you answer the phone just now? I called your cell phone but no one answered, and I called your landline but no one answered either. Shaojun and I were so worried and felt so guilty." Jiang Mengru finished speaking and breathed a deep sigh of relief.
Yue Yirou breathed a sigh of relief. At least it wasn't another call asking her to go out. She's always found it hard to refuse others.
After explaining the situation to Jiang Mengru and telling her not to worry or feel guilty anymore, Yue Yirou hung up the phone. When she turned around, she saw Yan Ye standing behind her.
Yue Yirou felt a little flustered. When did he come down? How much of what she and Mengru said just now had he heard?
"Night." Yue Yirou softly called someone's name.
"Miss Jiang's call?" Yan Ye asked with a gentle smile, his tone revealing neither warmth nor coldness.
Seeing that he still had a smile on his face, Yue Yirou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he probably hadn't suspected anything. She couldn't help but smile and nodded, "Yes, it was Mengru who called."
"Why did you tell her not to worry or feel guilty? Did something happen when you went out last time?" Yan Ye's face was still smiling, and his tone was even a little gentle.
"..." She was deceived by Yan Ye's appearance.
Yue Yirou said somewhat guiltily, "No, Mengru called me last night wanting to ask me out for dinner, but I just went out the day before yesterday, so I didn't want to go out. I told her I was busy today and would go out in a couple of days. Then she called just now, but I didn't have my phone with me and didn't answer. She was worried that you were restricting my freedom again, and she felt guilty because she often asked me out and made you angry. I comforted her and told her that you're good to me and that she shouldn't worry or feel guilty."
She really didn't dare let Yan Ye know what happened that day. If he found out, she would definitely be deprived of her freedom again, whether by accident or intentional.
He will not only deprive her of her freedom, but he is also very likely to take his anger out on Jiang Mengru and Xu Shaojun.
"Oh, I see." Yan Ye kissed her forehead. He believed her; he believed her explanation.
"Yes, that's how it is." Yue Yirou knew that Yan Ye truly believed her this time, but she didn't feel happy at all. On the contrary, she felt a little guilty because she had let Yan Ye down.
Yan Ye, I'm sorry. I lied to you for your own good and for everyone's good. I really think what happened that day was just an accident.
Yue Yirou was not restricted by Yan Ye, which relieved Jiang Mengru and Lu Tingyun. They were very happy, especially Lu Tingyun, although he did not show it in front of Jiang Mengru.
After having dinner with Lu Tingyun that day, Jiang Mengru did not drive back to the Jiang family home as usual, but instead went to Lu Tingyun's residence.
Lu Tingyun knew she was following him and understood her intentions. He felt very annoyed and wanted to call her several times to ask her to go back. However, he thought that if he refused her again, she would definitely become suspicious.
After careful consideration, he did not call Jiang Mengru to ask her to go back.
Lu Tingyun did not live with the Xu family, but lived alone in an apartment outside.
Jiang Mengru had been here once before. When she came out of the elevator, she saw Lu Tingyun standing outside the elevator waiting for her. She blushed instantly and lowered her eyes to stare at the floor.
"Mengru, you..."
Jiang Mengru blushed and dared not look at Lu Tingjun, saying shyly, "Shaojun, I have made up my mind, and I don't regret it."
She was worried that things might change if things dragged on, and she was also a little worried that Lu Tingyun might actually like Yue Yirou.
Although Lu Tingyun really didn't want to touch Jiang Mengru, he had no choice but to take her that night.
Afterwards, Jiang Mengru fell asleep contentedly with a sweet smile, but Lu Tingyun was wide awake. He got up, threw off the covers, and went to the window, smoking one cigarette after another.
Yi Rou, all I could think about just now was you. What about you? When Yan Ye was pinning you down, did you ever think about me?
Yi Rou, I now deeply understand how painful it was for you to be imprisoned in the Starry Night Pavilion by Yan Ye when you loved me. I hope it's not too late. You must give me a chance to make up for the hurt I caused you.
