Husband Is Too Sweet! - Chapter 16
After leaving the mountain resort, the days quickly went by and Yu Yan finally started to work. Her days were spent working to perfect her sketches and making them into flawless designs. In no time more than a month had passed. This month had been packed with work and she had hardly any time to relax. Though busy, she had lived peacefully. Since she enjoyed the work, she did not mind being busy.
Even though she was content others started to get impatient. Elder Li was very unhappy. His stiff grandson never visited and now Ah Yan had also forgotten about him. But he was not the onl.y one who was unhappy with Yu Yan’s busy schedule. Wu Ming Yue could not even seeder new friend even though they worked at the same company. At first, she had asked to meet up again, but fas turned down every single time. She started to wine and bother Yu Yan until her friend started to ignore and avoid her. As the boss, she should be happy her employee was working so hard, but somehow she was not.
Though Yu Yan understood she was neglecting everything besides her work she could not help it. In her last life, she was unable to do what she loved. Even though she had made masterpieces for Yun Feng, they had not been her designs anymore. They were all taken away. Though she continued to design for her so-called friend, she lost her inspiration and hope. Others may not have seen it, but to her, those designs had become dull, without life and soul. They were depressing just like she had been. Being able to design as many designs as she wanted, had gotten her hopes up. This life was different. These designs were hers and only hers. It could be clearly seen, as every design were unique with vitality and spirit. Finally able to work as a designer, she worked until she worked from morning to night.
She had been so content, that she had forgotten all about Yun Feng. She had grown all those worries in the back of her mind. But some people just couldn’t go too long without making trouble and Yun Feng was one of those people. The TV stunt had cost her dearly. Her reputation was ruined. Since Yu Yan had won the lawsuit, things had turned for the worst. People looked at her strangely, her scheming side had been known. Her family owned a media outlet, though not too rich she was of the upper class compared to commoners. But compared to the big and wealthy her family was nothing new money, nothing special. She had used Yu Yan’s position as madam Li to mingle with the upper class and then she had secretly spread rumours and made Yu Yan an outcast. However, now those friends had distanced themselves from her. She had tried to get back on their good side, but nothing had worked. Not only was her situation bad, but also her family was doing horribly. She had used her father’s connections for the media stunt. The outcome had made all those people lose face and retaliate against her father’s company. The company was already at a bad and their retaliations had broth the company near bankruptcy. She really needed the help and influence of those rich women. After thinking everything through, she could only come up with a plan. If Yu Yan was to explain that everything was a misunderstanding than those women would not be so wary of her anymore.
Making up her mind she called her friend. “Hello?” “Ah Yan, we haven’t met for a while. Why not meet up this weekend? I’ll come to pick you up on Saturday morning, we’ll go shopping! I’m kind of busy now and can’t talk much. See you this weekend!” Not letting Yu Yan voice her objections, she quickly ended the call. Yun Feng would make Yu Yan pay for all the damages Yu Yan had caused her. She just had to wait until the weekend. Those ladies may look down on her for being a scheming woman but none of those noble ladies were pure. Though they were on guard against her, those women would never take Yu Yan’s side. After all, all of them hated Yu Yan. They did not want a backstabbing friend but would happily watch if Yu Yan was ruined. Just two years ago, Li Yi Feng had been the golden bachelor that all the ladies wanted to marry. However, Yu Yan, that commoner had suddenly taken the position of madam Li that many had eyed. This had left many unhappy.
She only had to bring Yu Yan and make her say a few good words for her and her name would be cleared. After that those women would take care of everything. They would embarrass and make a laughingstock out of Yu Yan. Thinking about it a sinister smile crept up her face.

Yu Yan really regretted answering the call. She had ignored many calls lately and decided to answer this one before even seeing who’s call it was. As she had thought, she had lived to peacefully the past month, so trouble came looking for her. Yun Feng would never be kindhearted and invite her out without scheming.
Well, she had no choice, if she did not go that woman would most likely use more drastic measures to deal with her. Besides this could be another opportunity to get back at her. Settling her worries, she continued on her work. She would take care of the problem when the time comes.

Saturday morning.
“Ah Yan let’s hurry! The earlier we go the better.” Yun Feng was anxious. She could not be late! If she made those noble ladies wait, things would get harder. Her anxiousness did not go unnoticed by Yu Yan. Seeing Yun Feng like this, Yu Yan ate leisurely taking her time. The more anxious Yun Feng was, the happier Yu Yan became. “Why the hurry? let me eat first. We have the whole day anyways. Don’t stand anymore, sit down.” “We can grab something to eat on the way! Let’s go.” “No, it’s such a waste to throw away food. It’s not like we’re meeting anyone. It doesn’t matter when we go.” Yun Fen looks away guiltily. Sh*t! If they did not hurry Yun Feng would be in trouble. Yu Yan observed the woman carefully, so they were meeting someone? Then she definitely had to be late. Doing the dishes against Yun Feng objection she even went to the bathroom and waited a long time before she came out. Yun Feng was obviously very angry and was trying to hold it in.
Finally able to get Yu Yan into the car, Yun Feng made the driver drive as fast as possible. She had already been called ones while Yu Yan was inside the bathroom. The caller was obviously irritated. She had to plead for forgiveness and make up excuses. She hated that those women could do as they pleased, while she had to please them. She had to put down her pride and listen to their every whim. To be at their beck and call like a servant. Just wait until she becomes madam Li! Then she would show them.
