The breeze stirred her long hair gently, sunlight reflecting off the water and outlining her slender silhouette. She was slightly hunched over her phone, thumbs moving quickly, a faint smile resting on her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fan’s heart skipped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Ye Ling?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes widened, disbelief and joy colliding in his chest. For a moment, the frustration, the anger, even the sting from earlier. All of it vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Why was she here?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Didn’t she say she was meeting her father today?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His breathing slowed down, replaced by a warm, fluttering anticipation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Is this the meeting place?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His steps instinctively moved forward, then stopped halfway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fan hesitated, suddenly feeling nervous. He straightened his clothes unconsciously and wiped his palms on his pants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’If she’s meeting her father... then this must mean. I can see my—’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A strange mix of excitement and anxiety rose in his chest.’Future... father-in-law!’The thought made his ears heat up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Let’s wait a little,’he decided. ’I shouldn’t interrupt something so important.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He found another bench a short distance away and sat down, pretending to look at the lake while stealing glances in her direction. Every few seconds, his eyes flicked back to Ye Ling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She looks happy today.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fan smiled faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Maybe after today, things will get better. Once her father approves of me...’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His thoughts began to wander, slipping easily into those familiar fantasies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a modest apartment, Ye Ling was cooking while he helped awkwardly. They spent the holidays together. A quiet life. Nothing extravagant, just peaceful and harmonious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s all he wants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Minutes passed by before Ye Ling stood up all of a sudden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fan also straightened immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Ling tucked her phone away and smiled softly, looking toward the path ahead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Is he here?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fan’s heartbeat quickened, slightly nervous. He stood as well, keeping his distance but watching closely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, a man emerged from the trees lining the path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was short. Even shorter than Ye Ling, in fact. With a bald head that reflected the sunlight faintly. His posture was relaxed and confident, looking like someone who is in a prominent job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That must be him.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fan exhaled in relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’He looks... well-maintained. Younger than I expected.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, Lin Fan felt a twinge of envy for Ye Ling. It was not resentment, but longing. He had never known what a warm parent-child relationship looked like. Seeing Ye Ling rush forward, her face lighting up as she threw her arms around the man, stirred something complicated and painful in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’They look close. Is this what a father’s love looks like?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’That’s good. That’s really good.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His lips curved upward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—His smile froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man didn’t let go. Instead, he pulled Ye Ling closer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Too close.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their bodies pressed together, far beyond what was appropriate. Ye Ling tilted her head downward—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And they kissed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a quick peck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not an affectionate greeting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They kissed deeply, hungrily. The man’s hands roamed without restraint, gripping her waist, sliding downwards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Ling didn’t resist. She leaned into him, responding even more passionately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fan’s mind went blank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...What?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The world seemed to tilt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This... isn’t right.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This isn’t what a father does.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart pounded violently as shock crashed into him, followed by something cold and nauseating. His legs moved before his mind could catch up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"YE LING!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fan’s shout echoed across the lakeside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Ling pulled back sharply, surprise flashing across her face. The man clicked his tongue, clearly annoyed at the interruption.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Lin Fan...\" Ye Ling said. There was a flicker of panic in her eyes, but it vanished almost instantly, replaced by calm indifference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fan rushed forward, his face flushed red, words spilling out uncontrollably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who is this man? Why are you kissing him?! Didn’t you say you were meeting your dad today? Were you lying to me? What are you hiding from me?! Answer m-me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice cracked on the last word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Ling inhaled slowly, as if steadying herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Technically,\" she said coolly, \"I didn’t lie to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Fan’s breath hitched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He is my daddy!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those words landed like a slap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...Are you fucking kidding me?!\" Lin Fan whispered, his expression twisting in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Ye Ling could respond, the man chuckled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, no, dude,\" he said seriously, an arm draped possessively around Ye Ling’s shoulders. \"I am her daddy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused. Then grinned. \"Her sugar daddy. Hahaha.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The laughter echoed inside Lin Fan’s skull, sounding deafening and cruel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No... no, that’s not true...\" Lin Fan shook his head violently, eyes bloodshot. \"Ye Ling! Tell me this is a lie! Tell me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Ling snorted and crossed her arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do I really need to spell it out for you?\" she said impatiently. \"Can’t you see it yourself?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her every word felt like a blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What about me?\" Lin Fan asked hoarsely. \"Were you... just using me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at him like he was beneath her need to explain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t flatter yourself. You’re just one of the dogs I keep around.\" She leaned closer to the man. \"Han Jie is the only one I love.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Han Jie smiled smugly and grabbed Ye Ling’s butt deliberately, as if to display ownership.\u003C\u002Fp>",1037,"2026-06-02T12:20:51.810Z",1,"novelbin.me","3fb0f090767f1894c78a177bc1444970d08fe17e45053f413a95d942d5d9798f","the-destiny-villainess-wants-me-to-work-chapter-64","the-destiny-villainess-wants-me-to-work-chapter-62",240,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-destiny-villainess-wants-me-to-work-cover.jpg"]
