Chapter 241
Su Yuhan's Friend
Lin Tai encountered a traffic jam as soon as he drove onto the highway. He only arrived at the next highway junction after half an hour.
Over an hour later, the car drove into a secluded mountain area. There were endless paddy fields and mountains around.
Mengmeng could not stop screaming as she pointed at a big white bird in the paddy field outside. A child's nature to get close to nature was completely unleashed.
Meanwhile, Su Yuhan explained everything to her patiently.
Soon, the car finally stopped by the Jade Lake. There were two people standing by the lake. They were Tong Lei and one of her bodyguards. Meanwhile, there were a few cars parked by the side.
Tong Lei walked over as soon as they got out of the car. She said while smiling at Su Yuhan, "Yuhan, I've been waiting for so long. I thought you guys weren't coming."
"I'm sorry. There was a traffic jam."
Su Yuhan smiled apologetically while hugging Mengmeng.
Tong Lei just noticed Mengmeng in her embrace. She was stunned at first, then she said in shock, "Is this your daughter?"
"Mengmeng, greet Auntie Tong."
Su Yuhan stretched her arm out to hold the little girl's hand.
"Hello, Auntie Tong," the little girl said in her baby voice.
Tong Lei could not help but caress her little round face. She then said, "Let's go. We've been waiting for you guys."
She glanced at Ye Chen and the Audi that was parked by the road after saying that. She shook her head lightly and turned around to walk in front.
'He drives an Audi. It seems like Yuhan's husband isn't that great.'
"My lord, I won't be going. I'll wait for you guys outside," Lin Tai said softly as he walked over.
He did not know any of them, so it would be meaningless for him to go.
Ye Chen nodded lightly and followed Su Yuhan to the pontoon bridge that led to the center of the lake. The entire Mingjing Lake was approximately 1,000 square meters. Meanwhile, there was a retro house in the center of the lake. Smoke was coming out of the house at the moment.
As far as the eye could see, it was filled with lotus leaves. There were crystal clear water droplets standing on the lotus leaves, and under the lotus leaves were extremely lively fish. It gave people a visual experience of being in the Jiangnan water village.
"You really know how to pick a place. You actually chose a place like this to eat."

Yuhan smiled as she walked.
Even Su Youwei took out her mobile phone and kept taking photos. She seemed to like the view in front of her very much.
However, Ye Chen shook his head lightly.
He was not as emotional as the others. What he was thinking was that when night fell, the battle between him and Wushuang would destroy the beautiful scenery here. At that time, the entire Mirror Lake would only exist in name.
A few minutes later, they entered the farmhouse. The interior space was about 200 square meters, and it was divided into five areas. Each area was filled with people, and the decorations were quite green. The tables and stools were all made of bamboo.
At this moment, it was bustling inside.
Tong Lei led the few of them directly to the third room on the top left corner. There seemed to be 20 people sitting inside at the moment when she pushed the door open. All of them were wearing gold and silver, and they looked extremely exquisite.
A lady with headphones got up and complained, "Tong Lei, you're finally here."
"Look who's here, guys."
Tong Lei smiled and moved aside. Su Yuhan, who was carrying Mengmeng, was completely exposed to everyone's sight.
"Su Yuhan?"
A young man in a red tie was stunned. Subsequently, he looked surprised.
"It's really Su Yuhan. Tong Lei, you're really tight-lipped. You didn't even tell us that Yuhan was coming."
A short-haired girl sitting in the corner exclaimed.
Su Yuhan smiled gracefully facing the people's shock. "Long time no see, Chen Yang, Li Bin, Zhao Lan, Xu Bowen …"
"Take a seat, don't just stand there!"
Tong Lei gestured Su Yuhan to sit down immediately.
Su Yuhan introduced Ye Chen and Su Youwei one by one while smiling. Everyone then had their eyes on the duo. Their eyes lit up when they saw Su Youwei. Su Youwei was not inferior to Su Yuhan no matter whether it was her appearance or temperament.
When it was Ye Chen's turn, the enthusiasm on everyone's faces faded a lot. Especially when they found out that Ye Chen was Su Yuhan's husband, they could not hide the surprise and hostility in their eyes.
Xu Bowen, who was among them, said in surprise, "Yuhan, is this Mr. Ye really your husband?"
Many people did not know about Ye Chen and Su Yuhan's relationship during university. Only a few of them knew about it.
Therefore, he thought that Su Yuhan was joking or that she was looking for a shield to dispel other people's thoughts. After all, on the surface, the difference between Ye Chen and Su Yuhan was just too great.
Su Yuhan's pretty face froze. "Xu Bowen, do I look like I'd joke about something like that?"
Hearing the displeasure in her words, Xu Bowen smiled awkwardly and stopped talking. However, he looked at the people around him instinctively and saw a hint of disdain in each other's eyes.
As a sea turtle, Chen Yang, who had studied abroad and was currently working in a research institute, pushed his glasses up and asked Ye Chen kindly, "I wonder what you're doing now, Mr. Ye?"
What he said immediately piqued everyone's interest.
"Do you even need to ask? Mr. Ye is naturally capable since he managed to win our Yuhan's heart. He's at least an executive of a listed company, isn't he?" A young lady with her hair in a bun said with a smile. She was rather pretty and dressed more maturely.
Her name was Zhao Lan. She was currently married to a wealthy family and was considered a rich wife.
"That's right!"
Everyone nodded at the same time. However, there was doubt in their eyes when they looked at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen said calmly as he met everyone's gaze, "I'm sorry, but I don't have a job."
"You don't have a job?"
Everyone was stunned. Even Tong Lei, who was standing aside, was stunned too. She thought she had heard it wrong.

"Brother Ye, you sure know how to joke."
A man with an extraordinary aura sitting at the head of the table said while smiling, "Everyone wants to know how you managed to get our school beauty, Su Yuhan."
Tong Lei had introduced him before. He was Zheng Hua, the son of the Beijing Traffic Management Bureau's director. Among so many people present, he was considered a distinguished person. Even Tong Lei paled slightly before him.
After all, Beijing was the capital of China. Putting aside the traffic management bureau that was an important department that controlled many people's lives, even a police station's director could not be offended by a wealthy family's disciple.
Su Yuhan began to regret coming to the banquet when she noticed that the people were vaguely hostile toward Ye Chen. Just when she was going to speak, Su Yuhan's eyes widened.
Just when she opened her mouth to speak, Ye Chen, who was standing aside, shook his head lightly.
As soon as he said that.
Many people looked upset as soon as he said that, especially Zheng Hua. He disliked Ye Chen's cold attitude. Moreover, he had tried to woo Su Yuhan since he was a prominent person in university, but he had failed.
Now that he was comparing himself to Ye Chen, he felt a faint sense of injustice. However, he had been through a lot, so he did not show it easily.
At that moment, the atmosphere in the house was rather suffocating. The people began to reject Ye Chen, but they did not say anything since Su Yuhan was around.
'It seems like Su Yuhan's husband isn't doing well indeed. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said that.' The rich lady, Zhao Lan, secretly scoffed. She began playing with her phone with her head down.
A smile appeared at the corner of Chen Yang's lips. "I wonder if you're really keeping a low profile or just pretending. However, your attitude has offended everyone here. It's impossible for you to blend in from now on."
…
The people were having mixed feelings.
Su Youwei was the only one who said nothing while smiling. However, disdain would flash through her eyes every now and then.
At that moment, the owner of the farmhouse stepped on the table.
"Alright, let's eat."
Tong Lei looked at Ye Chen and secretly sighed. She changed the topic on purpose and got the people to start eating.
In reality, she did not have high hopes for Ye Chen and Su Yuhan to be together. However, it was a fact, so she could not say anything. However, since he had offended Zheng Hua, it would be difficult for him to survive in Beijing in the future.
At that moment, a series of screeches came from outside. Subsequently, the people sitting at the door screamed.
"Cars! There are so many cars!"
