Chapter 88: Xiaoxiao’s Parents Are Actually… 1
“Xiaoxiao, you must be tired. Come sit down,” Leng Yanfei said, kindly holding Ye Chuxiao’s hand and leading her to a stone table under an apple tree, where they sat together on small stone stools.
Lu Xuanyu also came over and sat down.
Lu Xuanyu and Leng Yanfei first chatted casually with Ye Chuxiao, asking her opinion of the town and talking about university.
It turned out that the university she and Senior Student Ziyi were currently attending was the same one Uncle Lu and Aunt Leng had attended, and Uncle Lu had been a student in the architecture department of the College of Civil Engineering.
Slowly, the topic inadvertently turned to Ye Chuxiao.
Lu Xuanyu had a purpose, but he calmly asked, “Xiaoxiao, I still don’t know your full name?”
Ye Chuxiao politely replied, “My name is Ye Chuxiao.”
Lu Xuanyu’s heart suddenly jolted, and his gaze secretly met Leng Yanfei’s.
Ye Chuxiao! Ye Chujun? Ye Chuxiao’s name, how could it be so similar to the name of Ye Jiuli and Zhang Chenchen’s eldest daughter, Ye Chujun? Moreover, their appearances were also very similar; at a glance, they looked like sisters!
Lu Xuanyu and Leng Yanfei knew Ye Jiuli when they were in university.
Ye Jiuli had an uncle, Ye Baiyu, who was only nine years older than him. Ye Baiyu had a close friend, Yu Zhiye. Without knowing, Ye Jiuli fell for Yu Zhiye’s girlfriend, Mu Yixi, but was forcefully suppressed by Yu Zhiye, and his pursuit was unsuccessful.
Furthermore, because Ye Baiyu and Yu Zhiye were good brothers, Ye Jiuli had to call Mu Yixi “little aunt.”
Ye Jiuli and Mu Yixi were the same age. The “little aunt” and the “great nephew” became good friends. Through their interactions, he then fell for Mu Yixi’s roommate, Leng Yanfei.
Lu Xuanyu and Leng Yanfei had liked each other since childhood, but due to the long-standing feud between the Lu family and the Leng family, they couldn’t express their feelings.
Because of Ye Jiuli’s appearance, Lu Xuanyu followed his heart and forcefully competed for Leng Yanfei, ultimately resolving the misunderstanding. With Lu Xuanyu’s efforts, the feud between the Lu family and the Leng family was also dissolved.
Lu Xuanyu and Leng Yanfei got engaged, and Ye Jiuli was heartbroken again.
What made it even harder for Ye Jiuli to bear was that Lu Xuanyu deciphered his name for him, calculating that he would experience nine separations in his relationships, but heaven left a sliver of hope, and he would find his true love before graduating from university.
At that time, Ye Jiuli didn’t care about any sliver of hope. He only blamed Lu Xuanyu for not only snatching the girl he loved but also for saying that he would have nine unrequited relationships!
If he was going to be heartbroken nine times in this life, who would still believe in love, and who would still want to get married?! Ye Jiuli thus clashed with Lu Xuanyu.
Later, just before Ye Jiuli was about to graduate from university, he met Zhang Chenchen. By chance, Zhang Chenchen used the aliases Zhang Er’chen, Zhang San’chen, Zhang Si’chen, Zhang Wu’chen, Zhang Liu’chen, and Zhang Qi’chen, and they liked each other seven times, also separating seven times due to misunderstandings.
In the end, Ye Jiuli firmly fell in love with Zhang Chenchen, married the girl he loved, and was very happy.
（The story of Lu Xuanyu and Ye Jiuli’s grievances happened in Guoguo’s story 《Sweet Green Plum Donut: Scheming Childhood Sweetheart Has You Locked Down》. Ye Jiuli and Zhang Chenchen’s sweet love story is written in the extra chapter of the book 《Green Plum》, titled 《Jiuli, Long-Lasting Love》.）
After Lu Xuanyu graduated from university, he worked at the Ye family’s Maoshen Group. Ye Baiyu was the President of Maoshen Group. Because they were all in the same social circle, Lu Xuanyu and Ye Jiuli often met. The two were always bickering and teasing each other, but they were also good friends.
Six months after Lu Ziyi was born, Ye Jiuli and Zhang Chenchen’s eldest daughter, Ye Chujun, was born. At that time, they were still in Y City. Lu Xuanyu and Leng Yanfei even brought their son, Lu Ziyi, to the Ye family to see the newborn Ye Chujun.
When their eldest daughter turned one year old, Ye Jiuli and Zhang Chenchen went abroad. Where they went was not explicitly stated, and their whereabouts became secret from then on.
However, Lu Xuanyu and Leng Yanfei still heard through their social circle that Ye Jiuli and Zhang Chenchen later had another daughter named Angela.
