DPM Chapter 57-Entice Part 2
Translated by Snowfall77
Ye Fan stood in front of Ouyang Yi. No one had noticed Ye Fan moving, no one had seen how he did it. Ouyang Yi had only felt the pain before he’d realized Ye Fan was barring the way.
Eyebrows raised, Ye Fan said: “Let go of Luo Ying!”
Ouyang Yi didn’t let go. He snorted: “Ye Fan, I know you’re something else, but this is matters of my household……”
Pop!
Ye Fan gave Ouyang Yi’s face a heavy punch, and blood started flowing from Ouyang Yi’s nose. He covered his face, his voice agitated and bitter: “Ye Fan, how dare you hit me? Do you know who I……”
Ye Fan kicked Ouyang Yi without an ounce of respect. No match for Ye Fan, Ouyang Yi felt his shin bone fracture and he fell.
Crouching down, Ye Fan stated coldly: “I know who you are. A shareholder in the world’s largest gene research company, Luo Ying’s boss and husband, someone the military has to give face. And I’ll tell you one more thing. If I want you to die now, one second is enough. Your status is useless. Not even ten companies could save you.”
Wu Xingyun had discreetly started searching for rubbing alcohol and tissues for Luo Ying earlier.
Luo Ying was weeping continuously. Seeing her silent tears, Ye Fan pulled Ouyang Yi up and threw him out of the house. To the already stunned Lin Layu and the too scared to cry child, Ye Fan said: “Get out! Your family is reunited. I’m hungry now and I’m going to eat. It’d be best you don’t bother me again!”
With a bang, the front door closed. Ye Fan sat back at the dining table, took a bite of the eggs and declared: “This taste isn’t as bad as I thought.”
“This one is quite unpalatable, must have been developed by Ouyang Yi.”
Wu Xingyun threw Ye Fan a look, trying to signal that Ye Fan should stop adding fuel to the fire.
Paying Wu Xingyun no mind, Ye Fan simply said: “Luo Ying, when are you going to get divorced?”
Luo Ying was choked with sobs. She’d already completely lost face, but she wasn’t afraid of a family scandal. After deeply inhaling twice, she shook her head: “I don’t want a divorce……”
Wu Xingyun couldn’t accept that. He said: “Luo Ying, that scum had a child with someone else. What are you reluctant about?”
Luo Ying eyes were already red, and tears began pouring out again.
Before these end times, Luo Ying and Ouyang Yi had had beautiful days together. Therefore, when disaster had hit the Earth, Luo Ying had said ‘yes’ to Ouyang Yi’s marriage proposal.
She hadn’t expected that life after marriage wouldn’t be at all like she’d imagined.
Ouyang Yi lost his previous passion and consideration, though Luo Ying chalked it up to the pressure they were under.
Ouyang Yi would quarrel with Luo Ying. Even hit her. Luo Ying bore it in silence, thinking of it as her husband’s temporary loss of control.
Then, in that moment when Ouyang Yi pried her hand open so he could escape alone from the tree monster, Luo Ying’s heart went cold.
Still, afterwards Ouyang Yi candidly admitted his mistakes and repented sincerely, even offering to invite Ye Fan and Wu Xingyun for a meal.
Luo Ying gradually changed her mind. Anyways, she still cherished the earlier sweetness between her husband and herself. Her emotional needs weren’t much, but she didn’t like variables or restlessness. So she hoped that, if she spared no effort, she could retrieve the good times.
If she gave Ouyang Yi a second chance, surely he would turn over a new leaf. He’d be grateful and they’d go back to how they had been.
How was she supposed to predict a mistress coming to her door with a small child?
Furthermore, judging by the child’s age, and the mistress’ words, Ouyang Yi had been together with them a long time. When he’d been romancing Luo Ying, he’d already been two-timing.
Even now, Luo Ying didn’t want to accept the truth. That Ouyang Yi’s true purpose in pursuing her wasn’t love, but to make use of her skills. Yet the facts were staring Luo Ying in the face. The case now was that Ouyang Yi probably felt everything had gone successfully. Therefore, Luo Ying had no more value. Why not let the other woman and illegitimate child come for a visit?
When Luo Ying let it sink in, especially when she recalled that child calling ‘Dada,’ it was a knife twisting in her heart.
Thinking about her research results, that she’d never kept secret from Ouyang Yi, that she had published under both their names, Luo Ying felt herself truly stupid.
But did she want a divorce? She didn’t know. For decades, her life had been reading, studying, and research. She’d never thought about getting married.
Yet after she did get married, she’d never thought of getting a divorce even more.
If she did divorce Ouyang Yi, there were many issues involved. It certainly wouldn’t be a simple matter……
Luo Ying wasn’t good at dealing with these type of things. Her head was a mess, an overwhelming sense of uselessness rushing over her. Taking a deep breath, she said hoarsely: “You guys go back first, I……I want to be by myself now.”
Troubled, Ye Fan disagreed: “Ouyang Yi might come back, to your detriment. We’ll stay here with you. Besides we’ve already got leave for tonight. We can go when you’re clear on what you’re going to do next. Or you could go back with us. But I can’t be at ease leaving you here by yourself.”
“Mmm.” Luo Ying nodded, not having the mental strength to think through the details.
" "
She walked back to her room and closed the door tightly. She needed to clear her head.
The only two people left in the room were Ye Fan and Wu Xingyun.
After washing the dishes, they sat on the living room sofa and waited.
Because of Luo Ying’s chaotic circumstances, she wasn’t able to entertain her guests, while Ye Fan and Wu Xingyun obviously didn’t want to inconvenience or disturb her.
So they just sat on the couch, standing by. By midnight, Luo Ying still hadn’t come out of her room. Ye Fan went to her laboratory to get a blanket, then crammed onto the sofa with Wu Xingyun, both of them planning to sleep there for the night.
Like the times before, when they’d been journeying, they lay down, nestled up together. Ye Fan stuck one empty hand behind his back for a long time, before finally placing it on Wu Xingyun’s shoulder.
Wu Xingyun merely glanced at Ye Fan, not saying much.
They talked in whispers about Luo Ying’s matters.
“Ouyang Yi is too awful!” Wu Xingyun, “I hate this kind of man the most.”
Examining himself, Ye Fan felt he was not within the scope of Wu Xingyun’s dislike, and thus agreed: “I loathe this kind of person too!”
Giving Ye Fan a blank look, Wu Xingyun felt that Ye Fan was alright. But Mozun and Ouyang Yi weren’t that far apart, except for—one of them couldn’t father a child.
Ye Fan, noting the new annoyed expression of the soldier in his arms, felt all tender from head to foot. Slightly bowing his head, getting closer to Wu Xingyun’s ear, Ye Fan asked: “Yun, then……What kind do you like?”
Drawing lines of comparison in his heart, Wu Xingyun replied: “Loyal, courageous, responsible, gentle, tolerant……”
In his own mind, Ye Fan was also, one by one, sorting people into their proper places, and he felt he could meet Wu Xingyun’s requirements.
Wu Xingyun twisted his head a little and saw Ye Fan smiling. “What are you grinning at? I’m not talking about you.”
“I think I have those qualities,” Ye Fan said.
Wu Xingyun smiled back and swatted him: “Not even close, you already fail at the first, loyalty! You love everyone you meet. Ouyang Yi and you are like Tweedledum and Tweedledee.”
It was the first time Wu Xingyun had bantered like this with Ye Fan, and Ye Fan felt high in the clouds, the sensation quite wonderful.
Even if the soldier hadn’t said good words, in Ye Fan’s heart it was a big prize. He muttered in Wu Xingyun’s ear: “When did I meet someone and like them? Don’t say the word ‘love.’ When I have ever behaved questionably with anyone, right?
“Really?” Wu Xingyun felt Ye Fan was being very ambiguous with himself right now. Especially when Ye Fan spoke, his lips would occasionally caress Wu Xingyun’s earlobe.
Perhaps because of the contrast with Ouyang Yi, Wu Xingyun felt Mozun was a slag, but Ye Fan presently seemed really……Pretty good.
Ye Fan’s vague actions didn’t disgust Wu Xingyun, and when those lips brushed his earlobe, Wu Xingyun’s whole neck tickled. It was a comfortable feeling.
The other’s chest was broad, and probably because of his constitution, also very warm. Wu Xingyun thought that even if Ye Fan’s behavior was unclear, it wasn’t bad. Regardless of how Mozun calculated, Wu Xingyun considered himself married for two years. Weren’t they practically an old married couple? Besides……Since Wu Xingyun was an upstanding wife, when circumstances permitted, shouldn’t he enjoy his rights?
As for Mozun’s ‘true love’ or what not, that was a discussion for later! Anyways, those who weren’t the official spouse, were at best—the mistress crying at the door with a child!!
Wu Xingyun’s eyes gleamed, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help turning up. Then he suddenly clarified to himself. Mozun wasn’t here in these moments to make anyone to come to the door.
Having left the Federation for so long, Wu Xingyun had gradually forgotten the two sides’ opposition. Rather, what had happened in recent days now weighed more profoundly in his memory. Looking into Ye Fan’s eyes, in all honesty, Wu Xingyun saw a good-looking man, someone who was really Wu Xingyun’s type.
Particularly when Ye Fan embraced himself, murmured in a soft voice, in that split-second Wu Xingyun would find himself dazzled.
Ye Fan foolishly stared at Wu Xingyun too. Hearing the soldier’s rhetorical question, Ye Fan’s pulse had skipped.
Cause the soldier’s bright eyes were looking at him, as if they could see the bottom of Ye Fan’s heart. Wu Xingyun’s lips were awfully red, and his new skin looked soft and supple. With those emotional eyes and that expression, Ye Fan felt himself being enticed. Brazenly!
Ye Fan’s hand slowly slipped along the blanket into Wu Xingyun’s collar. Licking his dry lips, Ye Fan’s voice was a little rough: “We’re like this……It’s not questionable at all……At least, to……This……”
Tweedledum and Tweedledee are characters in an English nursery rhyme and in Lewis Carroll’s 1871 book Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There. Their names may have originally come from an epigram written by poet John Byrom. The nursery rhyme has a Roud Folk Song Index number of 19800. The names have since become synonymous in western popular culture slang for any two people who look and act in identical ways, generally in a derogatory context.
