"What's so special about Zhou Yufei? Even if she's got everything going for her, isn't her heart set on snagging ?" As he left Qin Qiu's office, Chen Yang vented angrily. "And you, not only do you not appreciate , but you're also pushing toward other won! Is that any way for a wife to behave?"
Unfortunately, Chen Yang's complaints were useless. Qin Qiu had already laid down an ultimatum: if he didn't go, he wasn't allowed to co ho anymore.
Chen Yang couldn't help but let out a curse.
Just then, Zhang Xiaowen happened to be passing by and stared at him with an odd look in her eyes.
"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen a handso guy before?" Chen Yang shot her a disdainful glance and strode away.
Zhang Xiaowen was taken aback, muttering with a pout, "If being handso was so useful, why would anyone bother working hard?"
Thanks to Hou Qiang's relentless brown-nosing, Chen Yang finally made it to the end of the workday.
"Mr. Chen, you're going on a business trip with the Boss tomorrow. Have you thought about how you're going to win her over?" Hou Qiang eventually asked with a sly smile. "I happen to have a couple of tricks up my sleeve. I wonder if you, Mr. Chen..."
SLAP!
Chen Yang smacked him on the forehead. "What on earth are you thinking about all day?"
Hou Qiang just grinned, giving Chen Yang an 'I get it' look before hurrying off.
"Chen Yang, co down to the parking garage with . I've got sothing for you," Zhou Yufei said, walking up to him.
Chen Yang frowned. "What is it?"
"So information about my family," Zhou Yufei said in a hushed tone. "Since we're pretending to be a couple, we'd better make it convincing. We wouldn't want to give ourselves away and have all our efforts go to waste, right?"
"Alright," Chen Yang nodded.
As the two of them walked out side-by-side, Liu Xiang slowly erged from behind, remarking coldly, "A shaless pair. Once I secure the eight-million-dollar order from Xinya International, we'll see if you still dare to look down on !"
「The underground parking garage.」
Zhou Yufei took a folder from the back seat and handed it to Chen Yang. "Take a good look at this tonight. You'd better morize it all; I might quiz you tomorrow!"
Her tone was commanding and brooked no argunt.
"Got it," Chen Yang said nonchalantly, tucking the folder under his arm.
"Can't you take this a little more seriously?" Chen Yang's indifferent attitude made Zhou Yufei feel insecure, and she urged him again, "You absolutely have to study it!"
SCREECH!!
The mont she finished speaking, a luxury comrcial van with its high beams glaring sped toward them, stopping abruptly right in front of them.
Startled, Zhou Yufei instinctively dodged to the side, but Chen Yang stood his ground, motionless, as if he hadn't even seen it.
Five or six people climbed out of the van. Apart from a young man holding a bouquet of flowers, the rest were all burly, fierce-looking n.
Upon seeing the newcors, Zhou Yufei's anger flared. "Wu Ziqing, are you trying to get yourself killed?!"
"Sorry about that. The driver's a newbie; I'll teach him a lesson later," the young man with the flowers, Wu Ziqing, said with a smile as he walked toward her. "Yufei, I heard you're heading to Qingqiu Dao for a business trip tomorrow, so I ca here specifically to wait for you."
Handing the roses toward Zhou Yufei, Wu Ziqing continued, "Let take you to dinner tonight! And when you get back, I'll throw you a proper welco-ho dinner."
"Wu Ziqing, I've already made myself perfectly clear to you. Why do you keep pestering ? Are you trying to be annoying?" Zhou Yufei fud. She had thought he would get the hint and back off after yesterday, but now he was pulling another stunt. She wasn't a patient person to begin with; tolerating him this long was already an act of charity.
Wu Ziqing's mouth twitched, but he suppressed his annoyance and said playfully, "My feelings for you are genuine. I hope you can give a chance."
SLAP!
Zhou Yufei smacked the flowers out of his hands and onto the ground, her voice cold. "Give up on that fantasy!"
"Chen Yang, let's go."
"Go?" Wu Ziqing finally dropped the act, his mask of civility completely gone. He sneered, "You're not going anywhere today unless you're going with !"
As soon as he spoke, the large n standing by the van took a cooperative step forward. Their presence was commanding, their aura nacing.
Zhou Yufei's expression froze. "Wu Ziqing, what do you think you're doing?" she demanded angrily.
"Yufei, you know how I feel. Why must you push things this far?" Wu Ziqing's tone turned icy. "You humiliated yesterday, and I endured it! I don't even care that you've already slept with this piece of trash! Isn't my sincerity enough?"
I have to laugh. What kind of bullshit logic is this? Zhou Yufei then warned, "You're just a lowlife! Get the hell away from !"
"In that case, there's nothing more to say, is there?" Wu Ziqing spread his hands indifferently. He only wanted Zhou Yufei's body, and now that the facade was shattered, there was no need for pretense. He gestured to the burly n behind him and pointed at Chen Yang. "Beat this piece of trash to death. Don't worry about the consequences. As for this beauty, I can handle her myself."
Instantly, the burly n closed in on Chen Yang.
Chen Yang paid them no mind, turning instead to smile at Zhou Yufei. "Fairy, you can handle this on your own, right?"
"HAHA!!" Wu Ziqing roared with laughter. "Did you see that, Yufei? He's a total loser, doesn't even have the basic courage to protect you! He's not a real man. You must be blind!
"Now look at ! I'm a high-ranking executive with an annual inco of over two million. My family owns a company with assets in the tens of millions! Compared to , this trash is just a pile of shit!"
Finally, Wu Ziqing puffed out his chest confidently. "Yufei, only I can give you happiness!"
"You..." Zhou Yufei was so exasperated with Chen Yang that she let out a bitter laugh. She hadn't heard a single word of Wu Ziqing's tirade. She simply sat down on the hood of a nearby car, crossed her arms, and said, "Fine, Chen Yang. Just stand there and watch this jerk drag away!"
"Of course he can only watch helplessly as I take you away!" Wu Ziqing laughed loudly, reaching out to grab Zhou Yufei.
Seeing that Chen Yang still showed no sign of moving, Zhou Yufei hurriedly shouted, "Alright, I apologize! I shouldn't have used such a commanding tone with you!"
"That's more like it." Chen Yang nodded in satisfaction and began walking toward her.
Wu Ziqing was stunned. Are these two seriously squabbling at a ti like this? Where does that leave ?! He suddenly let out a laugh, one born of pure rage.
SLAP!
Chen Yang raised his hand and smacked the folder right across Wu Ziqing's face.
Wu Ziqing stood frozen for a few seconds, clutching his burning cheek, before exploding in anger. "You—"
SLAP!
This ti it was a genuine, open-handed slap. Wu Ziqing was sent staggering back a few steps before dropping to one knee on the ground.
Before the burly n could react, Chen Yang turned to face them. "If you don't want to die, get lost. Now!"
