The female vice president was baffled.
"I have no idea," Liu Zhi said, waving a hand dismissively. "Forget what happened today."
"So people exist on a plane we can’t even hope to reach," the boss warned from the side.
"I understand, Boss. I’ll make sure she’s satisfied," the vice president replied. She could see her boss’s impatience and feared that knowing too much would lead to a grueso end.
"There’s no need. I’ll handle this myself." After giving his instructions, Liu Zhi left.
「Supre Dragon Leap Club.」
Wang Ming and Tang Yuxiang were sprawled on an incredibly soft waterbed while stunningly beautiful massage therapists worked on them. Both n had looks of pure bliss on their faces. Beside them, two won with exquisite figures, a true feast for the eyes, were feeding them grapes. Surrounded by beauties, they looked like emperors.
"Yuxiang, I owe you one for this," Wang Ming said with a hearty laugh as he stood up to stretch, an arm around each of the gorgeous won. Tang Yuxiang’s secret tip-off had successfully made him appear to be the Tang Family’s savior in Tang Xuewu’s eyes.
"Don’t ntion it, Young Master Wang. I’ve wanted to kick Qin Long out for a long ti," Tang Yuxiang said, quickly covering his mouth. He had almost blurted out the shaful story of how Qin Long broke his index finger. If Wang Ming found out, he would surely look down on him.
"By the way, the Yaolong Group didn’t really help you just because of Qin Long, did they?" Wang Ming frowned. He had hired a private investigator who confird that Zhao Ruoying and Qin Long had indeed t a few tis. Still, he couldn’t understand why the Yaolong Group would give the Tang Family such a massive contract.
"If he were that capable, I, Tang Yuxiang, would call him Grandpa!" Tang Yuxiang was seething with rage at the re thought of Qin Long. The man had broken his finger, beaten him, and utterly humiliated him.
"Alright, alright, let’s not talk about that loser," Wang Ming said. "In any case, the Tang Family, including your sister Xuewu, thinks I was the one who helped them. This is a perfect opportunity. I’ve already found out that September nineteenth is the fiftieth anniversary of the Tang Corporation. I’ve booked the Sky Garden at the Longquan Hotel to celebrate with the Tang Family, and I’ll take the opportunity to express my love and propose to her."
Tang Yuxiang fell into thought. "Isn’t that also the day Qin Long ca to the Tang Family, covered in blood?"
At his words, a sly smile crept across Wang Ming’s lips. Three years ago, Qin Long had arrived at the Tang Family’s doorstep drenched in blood. Because of him, everyone had co to despise Tang Xuewu. Tang Yuxiang rembered it vividly.
"That’s the day Qin Long started pestering Tang Xuewu, and he hasn’t stopped since," Wang Ming said, a crazed look appearing on his face. "So I, Wang Ming, will take Tang Xuewu from him on that very day, September nineteenth." He, too, had been punched in the face by Qin Long, and in front of the entire Tang Family. For that reason, he hated Qin Long just as much as Tang Yuxiang did.
"Young Master Wang, I’m on your side!" Tang Yuxiang declared with a laugh, eager to show his support.
"I’ll have to rely on you for that," Wang Ming said. "Spread the word within the Tang Family. Better yet, make the whole of Jiangzhong buzz with the news. I’m going to take away Qin Long’s most beloved woman! I want everyone to know that compared to , Qin Long is less than a piece of shit! I’ll make sure everyone knows that I, Wang Ming, am going to sleep with his fiancée. And I’ll sleep with her again and again!"
Laughing, Wang Ming buried his face in the bosom of the woman next to him.
"Just you wait, Young Master Wang," Tang Yuxiang said, also eagerly anticipating the day. "Tang Xuewu will definitely be yours."
「Lin’an Area, Jiangzhong City. Governnt Inspection Bureau.」
Zhang ide’s precious son-in-law, Li Mingjie, held a high-ranking position here.
At that mont, Zhang ilan and Tang De were sulking.
"What are you doing?" Tang De hissed. "Li Mingjie won’t go after Xuewu’s company!"
"Won’t he? We offended him so terribly last ti," Zhang ilan retorted. "And that Qin Long acted all high and mighty just because he knows so rich people, driving him away. Tang De, I’ve suffered ever since I married you, and now our daughter Xuewu is suffering with . Are you a man or not? Li Mingjie still has to call ’Auntie.’ If we build a connection with him now, we won’t have to worry about him making things difficult for Xuewu."
Zhang ilan stuffed two bottles of vintage Fenjiu into Tang De’s black leather portfolio.
"Isn’t this bribery?" Tang De’s expression was grim, and he was trembling with anger.
"Hey! If you don’t go today, you can forget about ever getting into my bed again!" Zhang ilan threatened, on the verge of throwing a full-blown tantrum.
Left with no choice, Tang De clenched his teeth, tucked the Fenjiu under his arm, and glanced around cautiously. After all, Tang De was a respectable, law-abiding man. When had he ever done sothing like this?
"Tang De, I’m telling you, if Xuewu’s company is ruined because of you, our family’s dividends and benefits will be gone for good. And if that happens, I’m divorcing you!" As Zhang ilan spoke, tears stread down her face. She was about to start wailing, "Oh, heavens, why is my life so bitter..."
"I’ll go! I’ll go, you ruinous woman!" Tang De finally snapped, gritting his teeth. "But Li Mingjie is your younger brother’s son-in-law, and our families don’t get along. Even if I give him the gift, he won’t accept it," he said, his face dark as he looked at Zhang ilan, who was now clinging to his leg.
"Then what else can we do?" she shot back. "It’s all because that crippled fiancé of yours is completely useless! We still have to be the ones to step in and solve his problems. If he had any backbone, we wouldn’t have to be here groveling like this! If you don’t deliver that wine today, I’ll kill myself right in front of you!"
Clenching her teeth, Zhang ilan grabbed a thin cord and looked around as if searching for a place to hang herself. Zhang ilan knew Li Mingjie had the power to sanction her daughter’s company. Otherwise, a woman as proud as her would never have co to beg him for help. But if she didn’t co now, it would be too late once the hamr fell. Besides, for a governnt official, this was just a matter of a simple favor. She had to get Li Mingjie’s forgiveness today, no matter what.
After a long mont of hesitation, Tang De stalked furiously toward the building.
Since it was their first ti here, they had accidentally gone to the back entrance, which led to a dog kennel. Near the gate, a young man in black clothes and a gas mask was pushing a cart, working diligently. He looked inexperienced, as dog droppings occasionally fell onto the path. The professional poop-scooping equipnt he wore looked incredibly cumberso.
Tang De gritted his teeth, patted the young man on the shoulder, and asked, "Excuse , do you know which office your supervisor, Li Mingjie, is in?"
The young man froze. Then, he started making incoherent babbling sounds.
Tang De was puzzled. Were all the governnt’s dog cleaners this arrogant?
"Young man," Tang De said, trying to be patient. "I’m Tang De, Li Mingjie’s uncle-in-law. Could you please announce us?"
But the young man just kept babbling, as if deliberately trying to shoo them away.
Furious, Zhang ilan kicked Tang De in frustration and turned to look at the young man herself.
"Holy crap! It’s not just so random guy... It’s really..." Zhang ilan gasped as she got a clear look at his face.
Isn’t that Li Mingjie? Isn’t that the sa Li Mingjie who was swaggering around just yesterday, eating caviar with a gentlemanly, arrogant air? Wasn’t he a big shot in the Lin’an Area? What was he doing here shoveling dog poop?
