Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain - Chapter 257
Chapter 257
He and Zhong Yuhuan had lived together for a long time, so he understood Zhong Yuhuan’s personality and habits. He was very clear that if he had continued just now even by a few seconds, Zhong Yuhuan would have pulled his hand away and been very unhappy.
When Zhong Yuhuan saw Li Jinyuan sit back down, her expression also returned to normal. The strange feeling just then also naturally dissipated in her head.
The meal was very pleasant. Since everyone had their own careers, there were fewer and fewer chances to throw the world behind them and eat a proper meal together.
It was only after the meal that Li Jinyuan said, “Huanhuan, your phone seems to have lit up.”
“Ah, it’s probably some unimportant phone notification.” As she said that, Zhong Yuhuan picked her phone up, looked at it, and naturally put it back down.
Li Jinyuan silently observed her actions and his heart fell back to its original place.

It was him who had belittled Huanhuan and thought too highly of Wen Yongchen.
In reality, Huanhuan’s standards were still high and would immediately cast something away if she didn’t like it.
High standards…
This made Li Jinyuan feel a bit of pressure, but also a bit of excitement.
“Let’s go back. I have an appointment with Yang Sen and Han Yingying tomorrow.” Zhong Yuhuan stood up.
Li Jinyuan hurriedly followed.
When they walked out of the restaurant, Li Jinyuan glanced at a place not too far away.
A black van was parked there, very inconspicuous during the night.
… So it’s paparazzi.
Li Jinyuan turned back, opening the passenger seat for Zhong Yuhuan.
After that, Li Jinyuan was picked up by Wei Jie, rushing to another place. Zhong Yuhuan was picked up by a car from her family. However, halfway back, Huo Chengming called, telling her that he was done working. So, Zhong Yuhuan waited for Huo Chengming to come before continuing back to the villa.
Huo Chengming keenly smelled the scent of food on Zhong Yuhuan, asking, “Did you just have dinner?”
Zhong Yuhuan nodded. “Mhm, Li Jinyuan was scolded on the Internet and I wanted to comfort him, so I had dinner with him. He’s already gone to somewhere else, apparently to audition for a role…”
Huo Chengming was almost dying of jealousy, but he still pretended that nothing happened.
He responded, “Oh.”
While thinking, Laozi* will never work overtime again!
*Arrogant way of referring to oneself, roughly translates to “this old man”
It was already 10:30 pm when they returned to the villa.
Zhong Yuhuan yawned as she went upstairs, going straight to the bathroom.
Turning the bathroom lights on, the bulbs illuminated the whole room, even the corners.
Zhong Yuhuan lazily tied up her hair, the earrings hanging on her ears swinging.
Zhong Yuhuan looked at her reflection in the mirror under the bright light.
She wasn’t wearing matching earrings today. The left one was a pearl stud and the right was a pearl drop.
When Li Jinyuan helped her tidy her hair… He tidied the left side.
Where was the drop earring for him to untangle?
Zhong Yuhuan was startled.
*
Zhong Yuhuan remembered that when they were still in Turkey, Huo Chengming and Wen Yongchen had a conflict. At the time, Wen Yongchen said something strange, something like, “You’re the same as Li Jinyuan… If I’m not worthy, then are you worthy?”
Zhong Yuhuan stared at the mirror in a daze.
She carefully recalled the memory, replaying it in her head several times to confirm. But maybe it was because she had recalled it so many times, Zhong Yuhuan became unsure whether she had actually heard right…
No matter what Wen Yongchen said back then, Li Jinyuan’s behavior today was weird.
Why would Li Jinyuan tidy her hair? Untangle the non-existent drop earring?
The answer was obvious.
Zhong Yuhuan swallowed and hurriedly opened her phone.
She decided to look at the comments online to see if she could find some clues from someone else’s perspective.
As soon as she opened Weibo, Zhong Yuhuan found that she had been mentioned many times.
Zhong Yuhuan went onto the hot search and quickly found out why she was mentioned so many times.
