Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life Chapter 1554 - 1543: The Scumbag’s Redemption
Previously on Quick Transmigration: Drama Queen's Daily Life...
"Were you deliberately targeting Zhao Yabo today?" Mei Ya asked, expressing her inner doubts on the way home.
Ye Qiu replied calmly, "No, you heard it wrong."
"Really?" Mei Ya looked at him with suspicion in her eyes but didn’t ask further, though the corner of her mouth lifted slightly.
Lately, she felt like she was often very happy, almost as if she had returned to her first love. She knew that Zhao Yabo’s attitude toward her earlier was somewhat overly intimate, so she didn’t stop her husband’s willfulness.
Although she and Zhao Yabo were very close when they were young, they hadn’t seen each other for years and hadn’t been in touch much. She was relatively distant, and Zhao Yabo’s level of care made her uncomfortable. But her husband’s recent jealous behavior made her feel that the previous years’ conflicts seemed to vanish into thin air.
She couldn’t help but sigh at how easily women are fooled. A few sweet words and some gentle care can make them forget all pain.
No matter what she’d gone through before, at least now Ye Qiu had changed, and beyond her expectations. Everything was headed toward a beautiful direction: her mother-in-law stopped troubling her, annoying relatives from the hometown stopped coming, her husband could now help her educate their daughter, and she now had a career, broadening her vision, no longer worried about the future.
Mei Ya didn’t want any changes in her currently happy life, so her feelings about Zhao Yabo’s arrival were indifferent, like an old classmate or playmate, not as complicated as Zhao Yabo’s intentions.
However, after returning, Zhao Yabo thought differently. That night, he dreamed of the past when he and Mei Ya had a great relationship, going to and from school together, getting punished together after mischief. Because his parents often traveled, he often ate at the Mei Family’s home. Remembering classmates saying he was a child husband to Mei Ya, Zhao Yabo woke up suddenly.
"Tsk, why didn’t I give her the confession letter when we moved? Letting a poor boy benefit for nothing," Zhao Yabo murmured, awake and unable to sleep, deciding to look into Ye Qiu’s business. What he found made him disdainful; he admitted Ye Qiu was outstanding for starting from scratch compared to ordinary people, but it wasn’t enough in his eyes. Can he really be content just to support Mei Ya?
Zhao Yabo felt it unfair for Mei Ya. Clearly, she could choose better, but since it was her own choice, seeing them as a happy family of three, meddling further would make him seem ungentlemanly. Let it be, but if Ye Qiu ever treats Mei Ya poorly, he’ll step in.
Secretly making this decision, he didn’t expect a day to act would come so soon when he accidentally discovered Gao Yanyan harassing Ye Qiu, believing Ye Qiu betrayed Mei Ya.
That day, he visited Mei Ya’s parents at the Mei Family and couldn’t help but share the matter.
He said with a face full of sorrow, "After seeing Xiao Ya, I thought she was happy, only to find she was kept in the dark."
Mei Ronghai and Li Baoqin exchanged glances. Li Baoqin softly asked, "Yabo, what do you mean?"
"What do I mean?" Zhao Yabo took a deep breath, "I’m pained for Xiao Ya, thinking of her devotedly misplacing her trust in Ye Qiu back then. Even you both helped him so much. Now that Ye Qiu’s successful, he hides rekindling an old romance from the family. This shouldn’t be for me to say, but I can’t hold back."
Seeing his earnest and sympathetic expression for Mei Ya, Mei Ronghai and Li Baoqin didn’t doubt him. They grew up with him and knew his character. Did Ye Qiu truly wrong their daughter?
Thinking of Ye Qiu’s recent changes, the couple grew more suspicious. Was Ye Qiu’s transformation just to prevent Xiao Ya from finding out his deeds?
"Yabo, do you have evidence? We can’t proceed without anything concrete," Mei Ronghai asked solemnly.
"I only have a few photos and a recording. I first noticed this woman often wandering outside the villa area, occasionally showing a resentful expression towards Ye Qiu’s car. That’s when I thought to dig deeper." Saying this, Zhao Yabo presented his evidence, making Mei Ronghai and Li Baoqin increasingly furious.
"I’ll call Xiao Ya and Ye Qiu here to hear their explanation," Li Baoqin said angrily. Their Mei Family couldn’t be played like this.
Mei Ronghai added, "Calling them back to inquire is necessary, but be cautious; what if this is a misunderstanding?"
Zhao Yabo thought, what misunderstanding could there be? Ye Qiu is truly despicable. How can such a person be worthy of Xiao Ya? He will fully support Xiao Ya’s divorce.
Mei Ya received the call with a serious expression. Ye Qiu asked, "What’s wrong?"
"It’s my parents’ call; something serious seems to have happened. They said it couldn’t be explained over the phone and asked us to return quickly." Mei Ya couldn’t help but worry; what had happened?
Ye Qiu immediately dropped the mouse, promptly setting off, overtaking cars along the way and arrived safely at the Mei Family. Upon entering, Zhao Yabo was also there, looking at Ye Qiu with disdain and hostility.
Ye Qiu squinted his eyes, thinking this boy was causing trouble again. What had he done now?
Mei Ya was focused on her parents and didn’t notice Zhao Yabo’s odd behavior. She anxiously asked, "Dad, Mom, what happened that wasn’t clear over the phone?"
Mei Ronghai and Li Baoqin didn’t ask directly but scrutinized Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu had mostly guessed the matter’s crux now. Could Zhao Yabo have discovered Gao Yanyan’s existence and thought he cheated? If so, Zhao Yabo was meddling too much. Without getting the facts straight, he dared to become the informant?
A grown man, always thinking of prying into others’ affairs, is he shameless? Does he think earning some money makes him exceptional and positions him as Xiao Ya’s best choice?
Ye Qiu snickered internally. Zhao Yabo believed he had proof of his infidelity, but he might be disappointed today. Even if Ye Qiu did wrong, what right does Zhao Yabo have to decide for Xiao Ya?
Merely a childhood playmate, he meddles too much.
If before, Ye Qiu merely felt cautious and displeased towards Zhao Yabo, now it was complete disgust and contempt. Couldn’t he use that energy for work and charity? How does ruining someone’s family count?
If Ye Qiu hadn’t clarified things with Mei Ya earlier, today he might’ve struggled to clear it, even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
