Su Youli is forced to marry as a substitute, suppressing her true nature to become the obedient replacement that satisfies Li Tingxi—servicing him in bed at night and working tirelessly by day.
...Chapter 697 Drowning Sorrows in Alcohol
Just then, Yue Yixun suddenly walked over and said, "If you're feeling down, how about we grab a drink? We're both in the same boat, shouldn't you treat your benefactor to a drink?"
The driver immediately looked at the outstanding stranger with suspicion: "Who are you?"
"He just saved me, he's not a bad person." Hao Tianyi also wanted to drown her sorrows in alcohol, but not wanting the driver to follow her, she simply said, "This is my brother and sister-in-law's friend, he came here today specifically to help."
Le Yixun waved his hand: "No, Lingling and I are friends, I have nothing to do with Li Tingxi... Ahhh! Why are you pinching me?"
He glared at Hao Tianyi, who had suddenly gone berserk, then quickly jumped back, rubbing his arm and wincing in pain.
You brat!
That was really ruthless.
"Shut up." Hao Tianyi glared at him angrily, and after much persuasion, she finally managed to get the driver to leave, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned to look at the displeased man: "What's your name?"
"Call me brother!" Le Yixun glanced at her with a smile. "Little girl, you can call me uncle if you want. That way, I'll be a generation above Li Tingxi."
Hao Tianyi rolled her eyes: "Childish! Doesn't that make you a generation higher than Su Youling? Are you an idiot?"
Le Yixun: "..."
Depend on!
Can this girl speak human language?
Is this how you treat your benefactor?
"Didn't you just see how I treat thugs?" Hao Tianyi sneered, looking down to find her high heels. "Want to experience it for yourself?"
Le Yixun quickly waved his hand, looking down to see her fair feet shuffling on the ground, her toes red from the cold, and her whole body shivering... yet she stubbornly refused to say another word, as if she didn't want to reveal her inner vulnerability to others.
Le Yixun frowned, quickly took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders, then ran over to pick up the two high heels: "Put these on quickly, in this weather..."

"Are you trying to freeze to death to get Li Tingxi's attention?"
"Shut up, you can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth." Hao Tianyi glared at him angrily, and almost fell while putting on her shoes, but Le Yixun caught her in time.
Seeing her clumsy movements, Le Yixun couldn't help but sigh, took the shoes and bent down: "Don't move, I'll do it! You really are a pampered young lady who doesn't know the ways of the world."
The warmth of her fingers touching her ankle made Hao Tianyi forget to resist for a moment, and she subconsciously said, "Nonsense! I grew up in the countryside when I was a child. Who doesn't eat human food? I'm just... cold today, and my fingers are not coordinated."
"Hmm, I can tell you're freezing." Le Yixun quickly put her shoes on, her hands were icy cold, and she didn't know how she had managed to stay barefoot for so long in this weather.
"Come with me, the car is ahead."
"Where are you going?" Hao Tianyi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously stood still.
Le Yixun laughed angrily: "Sell you, okay?"
Seeing that her lips were turning purple from the cold, he stopped joking and said seriously, "Go buy some clothes and shoes to change into first, as an apology for my rudeness earlier. And then... didn't we agree to treat you to drinks?"
Hao Tianyi finally realized what was going on and followed, saying, "That's more like it. Let's each treat you once, and we'll call it even today."
Le Yixun didn't argue with her. She took her to the mall and bought some everyday clothes to change into—a coat, trousers, and boots. The youthful and beautiful outfit made her look both pretty and cool, with a style that was both charming and sassy.
"What are you looking at? Look again and I'll gouge your eyes out!" Hao Tianyi said in front of the mirror.
Seeing Le Yixun's thoughtful look, Zili turned around and glared at him fiercely, "Go pay the bill!"
"Yes, Miss." Le Yixun smiled helplessly.
This spoiled and willful demeanor instantly erased any trace of Su Youling.
However, she is also quite charming and has a unique personality.
After leaving the mall, the two went to the most famous entertainment club together, booked a private room, and ordered quite a few drinks.
Looking at Hao Tianyi's spirited demeanor, Le Yixun couldn't help but chuckle: "You don't mean to drink this club out of business, do you?"
"What's it to you?" Hao Tianyi poured him a full glass of wine, showing no politeness whatsoever. "Why are you always grinning like that? Aren't you unhappy at all?"
"kindness?"
"What's wrong with you?" Hao Tianyi suddenly bent down, propped herself up on the sofa with one hand, and domineeringly enveloped Le Yixun. "Uncle, didn't you like Su Youling a lot? Today you were kicked out by your love rival, scolded by your sweetheart, and had to watch them take sweet wedding photos. How come you're not sad at all? Have you been lying to me all along?"
A dark glint flashed in Yue Yixun's eyes, and a bitter smile disappeared from his lips. He raised his hand, picked up the wine, and drank it down in one gulp: "Little girl, you're still too young. I'm used to it."
Upon hearing this, Hao Tianyi paused for a moment, refilled her glass, and sat down next to Le Yixun like a curious child, asking expectantly, "Have you been rejected by Su Youling many times? Why doesn't she like you? I think you're pretty good-looking, and you're so skilled. Although you're a bit unreliable, your overall stats are pretty good. Has Su Youling never been tempted at all?"
puff!
That's heartbreaking!
Le Yixun clutched his chest and downed another glass of wine. "I suspect Su Youling has no heart. Even you can see how outstanding I am."

He'd been chasing her for years, and yet she still couldn't forget that scumbag Li Tingxi. It's really strange.
Hao Tianyi was displeased: "Who are you calling a scumbag? Brother Tingxi was completely fooled by those two sisters! Especially that Su Youling, she's the most hateful! Brother Tingxi is such a proud person, and Su Youling faked her death and almost killed him..."
"Li Tingxi deserved it. The instigators were the Shen family and Shen Xiyue. What does it have to do with Su Youling? She was also a victim. Who told your brother Tingxi to be so irresponsible and play with stunt double literature? If your skills are bad and you crash, don't blame the car for being bad."
"You! You dare say another word about Brother Tingxi! You know nothing!" Hao Tianyi almost lost her temper. "If you're so capable, go and snatch Su Youling away and give my Brother Tingxi his freedom!"
puff!
A sword pierces the heart!
Faster and more ruthless.
Le Yixun downed three cups in a row, and didn't forget to pull Hao Tianyi along to drown her sorrows in alcohol, "We're in the same boat. Even someone as beautiful as you can't win over that blind Li Tingxi, right? Let's drink! It's all tears when we talk about it. Let's not hurt each other when we're in the same boat."
Hao Tianyi thought that made sense.
The couple was happily taking wedding photos, while these two idiots were arguing here. It's really ridiculous.
Drinking is still more enjoyable and more satisfying!
"Cheers! Uncle, seeing that you're still single at your age, compared to my brother Tingxi who has children and a wife, you're really pitiful and heartbreaking." Hao Tianyi, true to her reputation as a master of stabbing, said in a serious tone, "If in the end we still can't break those two up... Uncle, I'll introduce you to a few more pretty girls."
"Little girl, you'd better shut up! You can just drink with that mouth, don't talk." Le Yixun's heart was pierced a thousand times, and he really wanted to throw her out.
