Tang Ning drove back to the villa and, upon seeing Yang Xinyi, she threw herself at her, crying, “Cousin, it’s all over, I hit someone with the car.”
Yang Xinyi was startled, but after hearing that the person was okay and that only compensation was paid, she breathed a sigh of relief.
“I told you to wait until you got your driver’s license before driving, but you didn’t listen. Now look what’s happened. Don’t think that just because your dad is powerful, you can do whatever you want,” Yang Xinyi chastised.
Yang Xinyi had always found this cousin of hers to be a headache. Riding on the fact that her father was a high-ranking official in the Capital City, she acted recklessly every time, causing a multitude of problems. Thankfully, this time she hadn’t killed anyone; otherwise, they’d really be in big trouble.
“Tang Ning, what did the man you hit look like?” Xiao Fangfang asked.
“He was quite handsome, but his eyes looked very wretched. His smile was so sly, I carelessly let it slip that I didn’t have a driver’s license, and he clung to that, insisting I pay him eighty thousand or he’d call the cops to have me thrown in jail. He’s a total scoundrel,” Tang Ning cursed.
Listening to her description of the man’s appearance, Xiao Fangfang and Yang Xinyi glanced at each other and involuntarily the shadow of the same person flashed in their minds. Considering the timing, the car accident happened right when Ye Xiong was chased out by the two of them—it matched up exactly.
Xiao Fangfang picked up a wallet from the adjacent table, drew a photograph that was taken in a very flirtatious manner, placed it on the table, and asked, “Tang Ning, is this the guy?”
Tang Ning took it and glanced at it.
If not the man she had hit, then who?
“It’s him, Sister Fangfang. How do you have his picture? Who is he exactly?” demanded Tang Ning angrily.
“Is there a second man in this world as shameless as your cousin-in-law?” Xiao Fangfang rolled her eyes.
“Cousin-in-law?” Tang Ning looked at Yang Xinyi, her mouth agape in an O-shape.
After some discussion, Tang Ning finally realized she hadn’t really hit anyone; the bastard had just been scamming her.
“To dare scam me, I’ll see how I deal with him tomorrow,” Tang Ning cursed bitterly.
Early the next morning, Ye Xiong walked into Mingyang International Hotel, his entire outfit brand new.
His feet in crocodile leather shoes, dressed in an Armani suit and shirt with a gray tie, and wearing sunglasses, he looked like the very picture of a poser.
The feeling of being a nouveau riche was simply exhilarating!
“Good morning, President Ye!” Xiao Hong greeted sweetly.
“Such a sweet talker, here’s a reward!”
Ye Xiong pulled out several bills from his crocodile leather wallet and casually tossed them on the reception desk.
“President Ye, you’re just too… handsome!” Xiao Hong held the money in her hands and screamed like a lovesick fan.
“Put in your phone number.”
Ye Xiong took out a brand-new iPhone 6 and handed it over, “There’ll be a big red envelope waiting for you.”
“This phone is too beautiful, it’s brand new too!” Xiao Hong took the phone, tapping in her mobile number eagerly.
“Good morning, President Ye.”
“President Ye, you look so manly today!”
“President Ye, you’re so handsome.”
A group of female attendants swarmed around him, surrounding Ye Xiong so tightly he could hardly move.
Overjoyed, Ye Xiong pulled out bills from his backpack and flung them, his mannerisms dripping with ostentation.
“There’s enough for everyone, no pushing… oh, who’s being so ill-mannered, grabbing that?”
Ye Xiong finally managed to escape from the crowd of female wolves, shouting disheveled, “Today is a welfare day, there’s something for everyone. After taking it, go back to work. Work hard, and there will be huge bonuses for everyone. As long as everyone works hard, Mingyang International will treat you well.”
With an unearned eighty thousand in his pocket, it would be a shame not to spend it. Besides, the feeling of spending money was just too good.
Tang Ning entered the hotel, intending to ask the front desk about that guy’s whereabouts, when she happened to witness the scene. She felt her anger surge instantly.
That guy was actually using the money he extorted to hand out red envelopes to a bunch of women—that’s half a year’s worth of spending money for this girl!
She strode over and gave Ye Xiong a pat!
“Here, work hard, okay?” Thinking she was a female employee from the company, Ye Xiong casually flipped over two hundred yuan bills.
When he looked carefully at the person in front of him, he was instantly dumbfounded.
How did she know I’m here?
“Hand over my money, or I won’t be polite,” Tang Ning said threateningly.
Ye Xiong pushed up his glasses and sized up Tang Ning seriously, asking weirdly, “Young lady, who are you?”
Tang Ning was almost furious. She had heard from Sister Fangfang and Sister Xinyi last night that this guy was utterly shameless, and seeing him today proved he was indeed despicable, shameless, and sleazy.
He had taken eighty thousand from her just yesterday, and now he claimed not to recognize her.
“Your mom is who I am,” Tang Ning couldn’t help but yell.
“Mommy, I want milk.”
Ye Xiong looked just like a kid who was fighting for milk.
Tang Ning backed away several steps, almost dying of anger. Out of fury, she swung a fierce slap toward Ye Xiong.
Just as her hand was midair, Ye Xiong caught it.
A sly smile appeared on Ye Xiong’s face, then suddenly his expression turned cold, and he shouted, “Xiao Song, someone’s making trouble in the hotel, throw her out.”
Vermilion Bird walked up to Tang Ning, grabbed her with one hand, and threw her out of the hotel.
Tang Ning tried to struggle free with scratches and kicks, but it was no use, as Vermilion Bird’s grip was as firm as iron tongs, no matter how much she struggled, she couldn’t get away.
“Shameless, vile, my cousin must have been blind to marry a bastard like you!” Tang Ning shouted as she waved her arms and kicked her legs.
“Wait a second, what did you say?” Ye Xiong asked, “Who’s your cousin?”
“Yang Xinyi is my cousin, huh, scared now? I’ve told her all about your ugly face and vile nature, see how you kneel on the washboard tonight,” Tang Ning said proudly.
“Tsk tsk, turns out you’re my little auntie!” Ye Xiong laughed, appearing friendly, and the next moment said, “Throw her out.”
Vermilion Bird had no choice but to throw Tang Ning out.
To stay by Reaper’s side, one had to follow his orders, that was the bare minimum.
Tang Ning was thrown out of the hotel and was about to go back in when she noticed Vermilion Bird staring at her coldly, as indifferent as Ice Mountain, and realizing how easily she had grabbed her earlier, she knew Vermilion Bird must be highly skilled, so she didn’t dare to offend.
“Sister, you’re so beautiful, why do you listen to that shameless bastard?” Tang Ning’s brows furrowed, and she came up with a plan. “Let me in, and you’ll be my bodyguard from now on. Whatever that shameless bastard is paying you, I’ll double it.”
Tang Ning decided to use money to win over Ye Xiong’s subordinate.
“If you step forward one more time, don’t blame me for not being polite,” Vermilion Bird warned menacingly.
“Flat-chest, what’s so great about that,” Tang Ning cursed.
“Say it again,” Vermilion Bird’s expression suddenly turned icy cold.
Being flat-chested was her Achilles’ heel; she hated it most when people criticized her small chest. She couldn’t do anything about Ye Xiong teasing her because she couldn’t beat him. But Tang Ning’s insult was like stroking a tiger’s butt—it was provoking her.
“Calling you flat-chested and an airport, what can you do about it?” After saying that, Tang Ning intentionally straightened herself up. “Seeing mine, do you feel an urge to jump into the river and drown yourself?”
Vermilion Bird stepped forward, grabbed Tang Ning, and her palm came down hard on Tang Ning’s buttocks.
