The Rebirth of the Fierce Little Cute Girl

Chapter 475: Chapter 474: Beating Someone Up

You Zhen’s expression grew even darker upon hearing this.

You Limin couldn’t help but ask, ”What exactly did you do? Besides the Gu Family, why is even the Ding Family targeting us?”

When he heard his father’s words, You Zhen couldn’t help but press his lips together. Finally, he said, ”During this mission, we ran into Gu Tingyu’s fiancée halfway, and I just said a few things. As a result, they bore a grudge against me. But I didn’t know that Ding Yiyi was so skilled; otherwise, I wouldn’t have said those things.”

”You...”

Upon hearing this, You Limin felt a surge of anger rise in his heart.

”Why did you have to speak out unnecessarily? Don’t you know that Gu Tingyu’s fiancée is Old Master Ding’s granddaughter?”

”What granddaughter? She’s clearly a maternal granddaughter, and her biological father is a farmer whose parents are divorced,” You Zhen said, looking down on Yiyi’s status, feeling she tarnished the Ding Family’s noble lineage.

Hearing his son’s words, You Limin was infuriated.

”You know nothing. Old Master Ding treats this granddaughter quite specially. He truly cherishes her as if she were his own, otherwise, would the Ding Family bother you over just a few words?”

You Zhen was at a loss for words, his face looking quite grim.

”I know you are always strong, but sometimes we need to learn to adapt, or you’ll encounter all kinds of trouble in the future.”

Upon hearing this, You Zhen nodded and said, ”Dad, I understand. It’s just that I assumed Old Master Ding only pitied that mother and daughter. I didn’t expect him to value them so highly.”

”You can’t be blamed for this. After all, once Old Master Ding acknowledged them, nothing was heard afterward, and no one spoke about the Ding Family’s eldest daughter. It was only known that she opened a clothing store, so it’s inevitable for people to think the mother and daughter aren’t valued.”

You Zhen nodded in agreement, saying, ”Yes, if I had known earlier how much Old Master Ding cared for them, how could I have said those things.” In the end, he was somewhat stifled and looked at his father, saying, ”Dad, is there really no way?”

”Alright, let me think about it. You should go back and rest; it’s already so late.”

Upon hearing this, You Zhen said no more and went back to his room.

However, the final outcome still disappointed the You Family father and son.

An explicit transfer order had come down from above. No matter how unwilling they were, there was nothing they could do. They had already exhausted many avenues, but no one dared to relent on this matter, as no one wanted to offend both the Gu and Ding families at once.

Yiyi was unaware that Old Master Ding had also intervened, and felt regret that she hadn’t even taken any action herself before You Zhen had already been dealt with.

But at this moment, she had no more time to think about this issue; she was planning with her grandfather to arrange the house well, in preparation for her mother’s birthday banquet.

As for Ding Yuejun, she was completely unaware of the grandfather and granddaughter’s plans, and still left early and returned late every day, busy at the clothing store.

This time, with the collaboration of Shao Hui and the others, she finally had a spark of inspiration and drew several sets of clothing designs. Looking at the designs before her, Ding Yuejun smiled with satisfaction, then, spur of the moment, decided to try making them.

However, she soon realized she was short a few components, so she helplessly stopped her work, planning to first buy some, and if satisfied with the finished product, then order them in bulk.

”Tailor Lü, I’m going out for a bit.”

Tailor Lü was a kind-looking middle-aged woman who was hired as a tailor when the store opened. Her skills were excellent, and she was a nice person, so Ding Yuejun was quite close with her.

”Alright, boss, you go ahead.”

Upon hearing the term ”boss,” Ding Yuejun felt a bit helpless. Although she had mentioned it several times, Tailor Lü hadn’t changed her form of address, so she said nothing further, waved at her with a smile, and went out.

Unexpectedly, she had just stepped out of the clothing store and encountered Zhuang Xinhai.

”Miss Ding, what a coincidence, we meet again.”

Hearing this, Ding Yuejun said indifferently, ”Yes, I didn’t expect to meet again.”

”I see it’s almost lunchtime, how about I treat you to a meal?”

Ding Yuejun immediately frowned; this person was truly abrupt, offering to invite someone to a meal out of the blue. She didn’t even know him, so without a second thought, she directly refused, saying, ”No need, I have things to attend to.” With that, she walked straight ahead.

Seeing Ding Yuejun’s cold and indifferent demeanor, a trace of malice flashed in Zhuang Xinhai’s eyes, but soon he plastered a smile on his face, stepped forward, and blocked Ding Yuejun’s path.

”What’s so urgent? Why not let me accompany you?”

At this point, Ding Yuejun realized something was off; Zhuang Xinhai’s attitude was quite problematic.

”Mr. Zhuang, I believe this is only our second meeting, right? During our first meeting, we didn’t even exchange words. Isn’t your current behavior a bit inappropriate?”

Zhuang Xinhai quickly said, ”There’s nothing inappropriate. You and my sister are relatives by marriage, so aren’t we relatives too? It’s only natural to help each other when needed.”

”But I don’t need your help with anything.”

Having been refused by Ding Yuejun repeatedly, Zhuang Xinhai’s temper was nearly at its limit, but fearing the Ding Family’s influence, he dared not show it. He merely smiled slightly and said, ”Even if you don’t need my help, I could at least treat you to a meal, right?”

”Mr. Zhuang, I already made it very clear earlier, I have stuff to do.”

Nevertheless, Zhuang Xinhai still didn’t step aside.

Seeing Ding Yuejun’s beautiful face, a determined glint flashed in his eyes. He ignored what Ding Yuejun said, stepped forward, and grabbed her wrist, saying, ”I’ve already said that if you have things to do, I can help. Yet, you say you don’t need help, and now when I invite you to a meal, you also say you are busy. What do you actually mean?”

Upon hearing this, Ding Yuejun was almost amused by anger.

The person in front of her couldn’t be communicated with at all, and his self-important expression was truly nauseating. ”Let go of me.”

Zhuang Xinhai didn’t let go at all and tried to pull Ding Yuejun off to the side.

At this moment, someone suddenly rushed over from a sideways angle and punched Zhuang Xinhai in the face, knocking him to the ground.

Zhuang Xinhai cried out in pain and then raised his head full of anger. When he saw the handsome young man in front of him, his eyes held some doubt. He had encountered many people in Shangjing, but he had no impression of this person and thus didn’t take him seriously at all.

”How dare you hit me!”

The newcomer was Huang Yanquan. Thinking of the scene he just witnessed, he was almost bursting with rage and, without a word, stepped forward again and kicked Zhuang Xinhai in the abdomen.
