Chapter 540: Chapter 552: Lin Qiong Gets Jealous and Acts FoolishlyLin Qiongâs move completely caught Li Yifei off guard; he never anticipated that Lin Qiong would suddenly claim he was her boyfriend. Xu Yingying was even more surprised and found herself speechless, her mind racing with worry. How could Lin Qiong be so bold? This was going to blow their cover.
However, Xu Shanshanâs eyes were filled with amusement. She wanted to see how her brother-in-law would handle such a big problem.
At this point, Li Yifei had to say something. His face first revealed a guilty smile as he said to Lin Qiongâs father, "Uncle Lin, Iâm really sorry. Iâve been so busy with work that I only just managed to get here for your birthday. Here, I hope Uncle stays healthy and lives a long life."
Lin Zhenhai laughed heartily and said, "Itâs no problem at all! Weâre all family, no need for such formalities. Itâs good you could make it. Come, let me introduce you to Uncle Xu, who is also our bossâs dad."
Li Yifei immediately said, "Uncle Xu, hello, Iâve always heard about you from Yifei. He says youâre a fantastic father-in-law, just like Uncle Lin is."
Xu Zhenguo looked at Li Yifei in astonishment, feeling that this Li Yifei really appeared to be his son-in-law. Not only did they share a striking resemblance, but even their clothes were identical. He said, "You really do look exactly like our Yifei, donât you?"
Li Yifei immediately replied with a smile, "Yes, itâs really a coincidence. Not only do we look alike, but we also have the same name and work at the same company. In this whole wide world, it must just be the two of us."
Another old comrade-in-arms, confused, said, "Whatâs going on here? How can this young man be Old Xuâs son-in-law one minute, and then turn out to be Old Linâs daughterâs boyfriend the next?"
Lin Qiong then chimed in, "There are actually two Li Yifeis here, just like Yingying and Shanshan who look alike and share the same names, but they are two different people."
The comrade rubbed his forehead and said, "Are they twins, too?"
Lin Qiong replied, "Weâre not really sure about that. They donât come from the same place, and their parents are no longer around, so no one can confirm. Unless they do a DNA test. However, Yingying and I do feel that they might be twins since they look so much alike."
"This is truly a strange occurrence. Looks like Old Lin and Old Xu, youâve become relatives now," remarked the comrade.
Xu Zhenguo and Lin Zhenhai laughed heartily and said, "Indeed, it seems so!"
With Lin Qiong pulling him along, Li Yifei was introduced to everyone politely, not letting Lin Qiong down one bit. Meanwhile, Lin Qiong clung to Li Yifeiâs arm, her smile brimming with pride.
After all the introductions were finished, just as Li Yifei and Lin Qiong were about to walk away, Lin Zhenhai laughed and said, "By the way, Old Xu, where is your son-in-law?"
Li Yifei immediately interjected, "I just saw him outside making a phone call. Seems like he has some matters to attend to."
One of the old comrades quickly said, "Let him come in later; it will be quite interesting. Two sets of twins, two pairs... Oh, not that, I mean, Old Lin, donât mind me, Iâm just finding it funny. Thereâs no other implication."
Having managed to deal with the elderly, Li Yifei and Lin Qiong went over to the table with the younger guests. These young people were also left wide-eyed; they hadnât expected Lin Qiongâs boyfriend to be the spitting image of Xu Yingyingâs boyfriend. If it werenât for Lin Qiongâs earlier admission, they would have definitely mistaken this Li Yifei for Xu Yingyingâs husband.
"President Xu," Li Yifei said as he sat down, offering Xu Yingying a greeting accompanied by a wry smile.
Xu Yingying gave Li Yifei a blank look and said, "You really are something, being busy with work on your girlfriendâs fatherâs birthday."
"Didnât I rush back? But Iâll have to leave soon anyway; The situation there just canât be neglected."
Lin Qiong grabbed Li Yifeiâs arm and shook it gently, complaining, "Canât you just not go?"
Li Yifei chuckled, "I canât do that. This is too important. If I donât handle it well, President Xu might just fire me."
Xu Yingying laughed, "I wouldnât dare. If I fired you, Lin Qiong would definitely give me a hard time." She watched as Lin Qiong snuggled up to Li Yifei, clutching his arm so tightly that her chest pressed against it, a sensation that made Xu Yingying feel quite uncomfortable.
However, Lin Qiong was quite content. She had been watching Li Yifei and Xu Yingying being all lovey-dovey, which made her feel rather jealous. Finally, she could give Xu Yingying a taste of her own medicine.
At that moment, Xu Yingying stood up and said, "Iâm going to see why my other half isnât back yet." Throwing a reproachful look at Lin Qiong, she walked out.
Soon after, Lin Qiongâs phone pinged with a text message from Xu Yingying.
"What do we do now?"
Looking at the text, Lin Qiong instantly regretted her actions. In a fit of jealousy, she impulsively dragged Li Yifei into the situation. Now, with their parents and all the elders waiting to see the two Li Yifeis, she wondered what to do.
Seeking help, she glanced at Li Yifei. He rolled his eyes and gave her a glare. Lin Qiong, feeling guilty, gently shook Li Yifeiâs arm and whispered into his ear, "Think of something quick."
Li Yifei leaned in and whispered back, "You know this is a mess. Why did you do it?"
"I was just jealous, okay? How could I stand to watch you and Xu Yingying being so sweet together?"
The two of them were whispering to each other like a couple sharing secrets, and the guys across were looking on with envy. After all, Lin Qiong was a Deputy Director at the Public Security Bureau. Marrying her could mean a lifetime of glory.
Li Yifei then stood up and said, "Letâs go out and have a look as well." He took Lin Qiongâs hand and led her out of the private room.
"Why did everyone leave? Hey, Old Lin, Old Xu, do you guys find this odd? Thereâs only supposed to be one guy, but he keeps popping in and out. Donât let him fool you guys," a comrade whispered to Lin Zhenhai and Xu Zhenguo.
Xu Zhenguo immediately responded, "Thatâs impossible. Our Yifei and Yingying are truly in love."
"Exactly," agreed Lin Zhenhai, "Our Lin Qiong is the Deputy Director at the Public Security Bureau. She wouldnât miss something like this. She couldnât possibly be fooled by someone."
Although they said this, they both felt uneasy, finding the situation too coincidental. How could there be two identical Li Yifeis? And these two Li Yifeis had never appeared together; whenever one showed up, the other would vanish.
The comrade then suggested, "Why not have both of your daughtersâ boyfriends come over? That will clear things up."
"Thatâs right, Old Lin, Old Xu, hurry up and get your sons-in-law in here."
Xu Zhenguo and Lin Zhenhai exchanged nervous glances. If this turned out to be true, the two would be absolutely furious.
