Chapter 220: Chapter 220
"Yang Lin, it turns out both Ye Hao and I misunderstood you. I didn’t realize you had such deep feelings for Chen Jun."
Li Yifan rarely saw Yang Lin looking defeated, so he wasn’t going to let her off easily.
"I didn’t, Ye Hao, last night was just a misunderstanding."
Hearing this, Yang Lin’s emotions immediately stirred.
She hurriedly looked at Ye Hao, hoping he would believe her.
Even though she didn’t know what went wrong yesterday, she clearly saw Ye Hao drink the potion.
"Ye Hao, did you feel unwell at all last night?"
Yang Lin continued to ask.
"Not at all, you ended up drinking your own potion."
Ye Hao laid it all out plainly.
"So it was you who made me drink the potion last night?"
Yang Lin found it hard to believe.
"You can’t put it that way; you just reaped what you sowed. But your deep affection for Chen Jun is clear for all to see. Everyone in the camp wishes you both well."
As Ye Hao spoke, he let out a quiet laugh.
Li Yifan, standing beside, burst into laughter too.
Yang Lin was so furious that she could grit her teeth, but there was nothing she could do here.
Just wait, there will come a time when you’ll be begging me in tears.
Yang Lin turned around fiercely.
Chen Jun quickly caught up to her.
"Yang Lin, don’t be upset. Ye Hao has never been a decent person. The only reason he’s so arrogant now is because he’s become the camp leader."
Chen Jun was thrilled to hear their conversation.
With Ye Hao and Yang Lin at odds, he was one step closer to his goal.
"It’s only a small camp leader position. If you can rise to it, you can fall from it too. I refuse to believe it."
Yang Lin tore a leaf into pieces, as if it were Ye Hao.
"If there’s anything I can do, please let me know. I’ve long had a problem with him."
Chen Jun quickly stated his stance.
"You don’t need to do anything, just wait to become the camp leader yourself."
Yang Lin looked at Chen Jun, and after last night, she was essentially tied to him now.
She thought about it and spoke.
The child in her belly couldn’t be linked to Ye Hao anymore.
With the scandal between her and Chen Jun, dealing with the baby was tricky.
She could use this child to bring Ye Hao down.
Her father, though indulgent with her, wouldn’t offend others without reason.
But for his grandson’s future, there are things he would definitely support.
For instance, getting a higher position for his grandson’s father.
"Yang Lin, I’ve always liked you. I was just afraid you didn’t like me, but if you’re willing, I’ll do anything for you."
Chen Jun knew this was the best time to move Yang Lin.
He quickly declared with righteous intent.
"I know, and our situation isn’t something we can hide anymore, so let’s not hide it. Let’s interact openly from now on."
As they spoke, a car arrived.
Yang Lin waved to Chen Jun.
Chen Jun watched the dust rise from the car.
He was almost jumping with joy.
It seemed Yang Lin meant they were publicly together now.
And Ye Hao wouldn’t hold the camp leader position for long.
While sitting in the car, Yang Lin pondered why Ye Hao seemed to have reverted to how he was before he got injured.
Could it be he’s regained his memories?
If so, then last night Li Yifan deliberately called her away.
Could it be Li Yifan also knows about the hypnosis she did to Ye Hao?
Ye Hao lacked any background, so dealing with him would be simple.
But if this involved Li Yifan, she’d have to think carefully.
After all, Li Yifan’s family background was far superior to hers.
Even her father had to show him respect.
"I never expected you to so openly clash with Yang Lin."
In Ye Hao’s tent, Li Yifan said with a smile.
"Even if I didn’t say anything, in a few days Yang Lin would figure out that I switched her potion. Instead of letting her keep pestering me, it’s better to let her give up."
Ye Hao replied indifferently.
Anyway, he was prepared to bring everything to a conclusion.
If Yang Lin involved her father, it would work to his benefit.
It added another weight to his side.
Li Yifan thought this over and agreed Ye Hao made a good point.
They both knew Yang Lin’s father, despite many issues, was normally very cautious.
He kept a low profile.
If they could draw him out this time, it would be beneficial for the things they had to do later.
If the exercise wasn’t going on, Ye Hao certainly would have shared this news with Gu Yi.
He wondered how Gu Yi was recently.
Gu Yi had been extremely upset lately.
It was as if Ye Hao had vanished; he used to call every day before.
Though she hadn’t answered, she had gotten used to it.
Occasionally, he would write letters telling her about his matters.
But this past month, there had been nothing.
The uncertainty in Gu Yi’s heart was once again reaffirmed.
Even if Ye Hao came to her, pleading, she wouldn’t be soft-hearted.
Though she thought this, Gu Yi still felt particularly agitated.
Whenever the phone rang, she hurried to check.
But every time, she was disappointed.
That day, she and Li Yitian visited the industrial park on the outskirts of the city.
Their factory was almost completed.
"Once the decoration is done and the machines are installed, you’ll be graduating soon. We could have started things off with a bang, but by then, you’ll be having a baby, sigh."
Standing at the factory entrance, Li Yitian spoke wistfully to Gu Yi.
He often met up with Gu Yi.
Initially, he thought Gu Yi had just gained some weight.
One day, he couldn’t hold back.
"Gu Yi, have you been eating well lately? Your belly looks like it’s been indulged."
Though it didn’t show on her body, her belly was noticeably larger.
Knowing that Gu Yi had divorced Ye Hao, he didn’t think along those lines.
As a friend, he felt he should point it out.
To his surprise, Gu Yi burst into laughter at Li Yitian’s words.
"Thank you for the reminder, but I’m not gaining weight; I’m pregnant, over four months."
After Gu Yi finished, Li Yitian froze.
"Pregnant? Are you saying you’re expecting? Whose is it?"
Li Yitian’s first reaction was disbelief, then he wondered when Gu Yi had met someone new.
And how quickly she was having a child.
"What do you mean whose? What’s going on in your mind?"
Gu Yi gave Li Yitian a firm slap on the arm.
Li Yitian finally realized that Gu Yi said over four months.
That was when she was still with Ye Hao.
"Yes, but he doesn’t know, and you can’t tell him, or your brother either."
Gu Yi warned, looking at Li Yitian.
"Okay, so you’re planning to raise the child on your own?"
Though Li Yitian didn’t agree, he understood Gu Yi.
But a woman raising a child alone would be tough.
"Yes, so I have to work hard to earn a lot of money, so I won’t have to worry about anything else and can be with her."
Gu Yi touched her slightly bulging stomach, speaking with a face full of contentment.
