Sweet Love 1V1: Spoiled by The Executive - Chapter 150
Chapter 150: This Princess (10)
The thing that most drivers were worried about were pedestrians suddenly rushing in front of their vehicle. Even if it didn’t cause an accident, it often left the driver jittery and drenched in cold sweat afterwards. If they were unlucky and really did hit the pedestrian, no matter whether the driver really was in the wrong or not, they would have to provide some form of compensation one way or another. If the pedestrian died, then it would be even worse.
The man before the car was still knocking at the window with so much urgency in his actions, screaming, “Director Ling, I have something I want to tell you!”
Ling Tao stunned, his eyes wide as he looked at the person, and he couldn’t help but feel a twinge of familiarity.
The driver couldn’t care less, and with the rage burning in his chest, he got out of the car and shoved the man away. “Are you seeking death?! You don’t want your life anymore?!”
The man didn’t even pay the raging chauffeur any mind at all, but instead made a beeline for the backseat’s door, opening it up and rushing in, pouncing towards Ling Tao with all the urgency in the world. “Director Ling, I have something I want to tell you…”
Ling Tao shrieked, and the chauffeur rushed over to drag the man out from the car, kicking him to the ground.
Just as the car was about the be driven off, the man on the floor started to wail, “Uncle Ling, I’m Kang Yuchen! Don’t you remember me! I have something I want to tell you…”
“Kang Yuchen?” The memory hit Ling Tao like a bag of bricks, wasn’t he one of his business partner’s sons? The Kang family was doing well too initially, their business booming, but they suddenly disappeared from the face of earth. It wasn’t until later that they knew that the Kang’s businesses were bought over with a low price.
Kang Yuchen was infamous for being an arrogant and playful bum, commonly known as Kang Shao. He had a great relationship with Ling Yuqing, and he seemed to hold a torch for her too. Mr. Kang also hinted a few times about getting the two kids to marry, but Qu Wan had never liked Kang Yuchen. It was slightly inappropriate for Ling Tao to make decisions on his step-daughter’s marriage, so he did not agree to it.
Looking at Kang Yuchen now, he had since lost his arrogance and glow as a successful businessman’s son, and he was sporting a scrawny beard. His face brown and yellowed, he was so skinny that he could be mistaken for a skeleton.
Confirming the other’s identity, Ling Tao immediately got out of the car to help Kang Yuchen up. “What happened? How did you end up like this? Where are your hands?”
Kang Yuchen had seen the depths of how much people could change, and how absolutely heartless and disgusting people could get those days. Almost everyone that he had met had treated him like a splatter of dirt on their shoes. Ling Tao was the first one to show him any form of concern and did not regard him with disgust. Kang Yuchen felt a wave of warmth flood him, and his tears fell out of his control. “Uncle Ling, I have something to tell you, it’s about Ling Yuqing.”
Ling Tao shivered at the mention of Ling Yuqing’s name. “What is it? Speak.”
Kang Yuchen used his hand-less arms to wipe away his tears, continuing slowly, “Some time ago, Ling Yuqing asked me to help her with something, to ruin a woman for her. Ling Yuqing told me to gather a few of my buddies, and for everyone to have some fun together. To make the woman to wish she was dead, and to take some photos and videos in order to post them onto the internet…”
The moment Ling Tao heard that, his face fell, and a bad feeling settled in his gut.
Kang Yuchen observed Ling Tao’s expression, before continuing, “The woman Ling Yuqing asked me to ruin isn’t just anyone. It was your own biological daughter Ling Tianya…”
Ling Tao’s heart plummeted, and his face fell, as though a sharp blade has pierced through him, his entire body’s blood froze in place.
Afterwards, Kang Yuchen continued talking, but Ling Tao could barely hear past the buzzing in his brain, and the unsuppressable anger crashing onto him like a tsunami.
In the restaurant, Du Gang received a call. After the call ended, he walked to Ruan Zeyan and murmured, “Boss, Kang Yuchen has completed his task.”
“Good.” Ruan Zeyan’s face did not change, he merely nodded.
“Completed what task?” Ling Tianya, sitting opposite them, raised her head to ask.
Ruan Zeyan looked at Ling Tianya, his eyes practically radiating softness and love, holding onto Ling Tianya’s hand. “Where do you want to hold the wedding?”
