After five years on the run, she returns with two cute babies

Chapter 1227: Secret Photography

Forget it, let's not argue with him for now. Let this man get some sleep.

Walking over to Zhang Kaifeng, Lin Yuqing said, "Don't think too much about it. Didn't you want to sleep? Go lie down on the bed, and I'll tell you a story. You'll fall asleep soon."

"really?"

"of course it's true."

Zhang Kaifeng was overjoyed and believed Lin Yuqing's words. He staggered back to his room, threw off the covers, lay down, and waited for Lin Yuqing like a good boy.

Meeting Zhang Kaifeng's gaze, Lin Yuqing felt a chill run down her spine. She simply couldn't reconcile the calm and wise Zhang Kaifeng with the adorable, big-eyed man before her.

"Hey," Zhang Kaifeng patted the spot next to him and urged, "Didn't you say you were going to tell me a story? Hurry up and start!"

Forcing herself to walk to Zhang Kaifeng's side, Lin Yuqing sat on the edge of the bed, thought for a moment, then coughed lightly and said, "Once upon a time, there was a kingdom where a princess named Snow White lived..."

"Stop! I've heard this story before. Tell me another one!"

With patience, Lin Yuqing had no choice but to start again, saying, "On the mountain, there lived three little pigs, and they..."

"I've heard this story before, let's hear another one!"

"Zhang Kaifeng!" Lin Yuqing glared at him angrily and said, "Fairy tales are all like this, of course you've heard them all, do you expect me to recite them all for you!"

"That works too!"

You're kidding me!

Lin Yuqing wanted to throw her bag at Zhang Kaifeng's head, but looking into his bright eyes, she could only silently pray, "Don't stoop to this man's level, don't stoop to this man's level..."

"Hey, get started already!"

"Alright, alright, I bet you've never heard of ancient Chinese mythology before! Let me tell you one!"

With patience, Lin Yuqing began to tell Zhang Kaifeng the Legend of the White Snake. Zhang Kaifeng listened attentively, his eyes narrowing as he slowly fell asleep.

Seeing that Zhang Kaifeng had fallen asleep, Lin Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief, then covered him with the blanket, picked up her bag, and tiptoed away.

As Lin Yuqing walked into the living room, she prepared to leave, but then she suddenly thought of the box filled with memories in the photo. She frowned and went back to Zhang Kaifeng's room.

The man was still fast asleep. Lin Yuqing looked around for the box and finally found it under a cabinet.

Lin Yuqing tiptoed away with the box and was about to leave when she heard a cold, hoarse voice, tinged with a hint of anger.

"What are you going to do?"

Lin Yuqing froze, turning around stiffly. Looking into Zhang Kaifeng's icy gaze, her heart skipped a beat. But Lin Yuqing refused to give in. Holding the box, she looked up and said, "These are my things. Don't I have the right to dispose of them?"

Slowly approaching Lin Yuqing, Zhang Kaifeng's tone was gloomy, yet tinged with humility as he said, "These are all I have left. Are you going to take them away too? You're so cruel!"

Zhang Kaifeng's words made Lin Yuqing feel very uncomfortable, as if she were a cruel executioner who had stolen Zhang Kaifeng's most cherished possession.

But... thinking of their previous conversation, Lin Yuqing hardened her heart and said, "You said you wanted to cut ties completely, so why keep these things?"

"If you want to cut ties cleanly, then why did you come looking for me in the first place?"

Zhang Kaifeng's words left Lin Yuqing speechless. She kept a straight face and said, "I...I just came to see if you were dead! Don't overthink it!"

"I'm not dead, can you leave now!"

Zhang Kaifeng's aggressive tone provoked Lin Yuqing's stubborn nature. She gripped the box tightly, raised her voice, and said, "I can leave, but I will take what belongs to me with me!"

"Impossible! They belong to me now, and you can't take them away!"

"Zhang Kaifeng, you've gone too far!"

"Who's really going too far? Coming to my territory to steal my things, don't you think you're the one who's really going too far?!"

Wasn't this guy drunk? How come he's suddenly become so eloquent?

Seeing Zhang Kaifeng's bloodshot eyes, Lin Yuqing didn't want to pay him any more attention. After all, you can't reason with a drunkard, so Lin Yuqing grabbed the box and tried to leave. Seeing this, Zhang Kaifeng quickly stopped her, grabbing Lin Yuqing from behind with one hand and trying to snatch the box with the other. The two of them pushed and shoved each other, neither willing to give in.

But with Lin Yuqing's strength, how could she be a match for Zhang Kaifeng? After a few tugs, she lost her balance and collapsed onto the bed. Zhang Kaifeng, due to the alcohol, staggered and fell heavily on top of Lin Yuqing.

"Wow, so heavy!"

Feeling Zhang Kaifeng's weight, Lin Yuqing felt as if her internal organs were being crushed out. Her facial features contorted in pain.

With his hands supporting him on either side of Lin Yuqing's body, Zhang Kaifeng ignored her words and said with a childish smile, "If you don't leave, you won't take the box with you, so the box is still mine!"

What kind of logic is this?!

Lin Yuqing cursed under her breath, thinking that she shouldn't have been so kind as to come and check if this guy was dead!

Pushing Zhang Kaifeng from both sides, Lin Yuqing could only give in and say, "I won't take it, but you have to let me get up first. I'm about to be crushed by you!"

"Are you really going to leave the box to me?"

"Of course!"

"Alright then," Zhang Kaifeng said with a satisfied smile, and was about to stand up.

But before they could even stand up, someone suddenly appeared at the doorway, snapping photos of the two of them with a camera.

Lin Yuqing was blinded by the flash, but Zhang Kaifeng reacted faster, rushing to the person in a few strides, snatching the camera from him, and angrily saying, "Who are you? Who let you in!"

The man who was caught had a pointed face and a monkey-like appearance. Although he was very afraid of Zhang Kaifeng, he did not back down. Instead, he stubbornly said, "Even if you smash my camera, it won't do any good. The photos have already been sent to the editor-in-chief via Bluetooth. Just wait to be on the front page tomorrow, you adulterers!"

Adulterers!? Is this person talking about themselves?

Lin Yuqing had already stood up. She looked at the man, frowned, and sized him up before asking, "Are you a paparazzi?"

"I'm a reporter!"

With a disdainful snort, Lin Yuqing said, "Those who specialize in digging up people's privacy are paparazzi! I'm asking you, who sent you here?"

His eyes flickered, but the man's tone was firm as he said, "I received a tip that you two are having an affair, that's why I came here!"

Lin Yuqing rolled her eyes without any mercy and said, "Are you kidding me? This is Zhang Kaifeng's residence. Do you think a paparazzo like you can just walk in like that? You're insulting our intelligence!"
