SLAP!
Chu Hongfang viciously slapped Jiang Yan across the face. The harsh sound echoed throughout the hall.
Su Xuan is the boss of Yike. Others can be offended, but a Yike employee absolutely cannot!
"Get out of Yike!" Chu Hongfang roared at Jiang Yan. "And don’t you ever show your face in the real estate industry again. Otherwise, I, Chu Hongfang, guarantee you’ll have a miserable end!"
"You’re going too far!" Jiang Yan clutched her surgically-enhanced face, which she was quite proud of, and glared at Chu Hongfang. "You’re cutting off my livelihood!"
She had no other skills; selling properties was her bread and butter. Now that Chu Hongfang was banning her from the industry, what was she going to do? A trickle of blood ran from the corner of her mouth, dripping from her pointed chin to the floor.
"You deserve it!" Chu Hongfang said before turning and walking away.
"Lili, how could you...?" Jiang Yan suddenly saw Zhao Lili smiling at her. They were supposed to be inseparable best friends! Is she taking pleasure in my misfortune?
"Jiang Yan, you’re an outstanding person. I’m sure you’ll do great in the future," Zhao Lili said, walking over to her. She raised a hand to wipe the blood from Jiang Yan’s mouth, smiling as she spoke. "Don’t worry, you can leave now. And don’t even think about this quarter’s bonus. Since we’re in the sa group, the company will definitely give it to . Once I get it, I’ll be sure to treat you to a al!"
With that, Zhao Lili also turned and left.
"You... you’re all trying to drive to my death!" Jiang Yan shrieked, frantically tearing at her hair. Her mind had completely snapped. She never imagined that she would lose everything over a re fifty yuan.
"Su Xuan! I hate you! I HATE YOU!" she scread, staggering away.
She didn’t get far, collapsing onto the roadside outside Yanyu Tianfu. Her eyes turned bloodshot as she stewed in her anger, her thoughts growing more and more extre. She had never been so humiliated in her entire life! She imdiately pulled out her phone and made a call.
"Boss Guo, do you still like ?" she asked bluntly the mont the call connected.
Boss Guo, whose full na was Guo Jianbai, was a Chinese-Arican rchant involved in various business activities in China. His wealth was imasurable, and he had a hand in everything, both legal and illegal. She had t him back when she was selling properties. At the ti, he had expressed interest in becoming her benefactor, but she was dating a young man from a good family and politely declined. Now, finally, he’s of use! Yes! I’ll use Boss Guo’s power to get revenge on Su Xuan! With his status as a Chinese-Arican rchant, he won’t take Su Xuan seriously!
"Of course, I like you, beautiful Jiang!" Boss Guo replied in awkwardly accented Mandarin. "What’s wrong? You’ve finally co to your senses?"
Jiang Yan gritted her teeth. "I’ve co to my senses!"
"That’s the spirit!" Boss Guo said. "Why should a pretty girl like you struggle on her own? Be with , and I can give you more wealth and luxury than you could earn in several lifetis. If you can give a child, I’ll double it. I guarantee you’ll be so happy you won’t be able to stop smiling, hahaha!"
"I trust you won’t let down!" Jiang Yan said.
"Of course not, lah! I’m very good at taking care of beautiful won. Beautiful Jiang, I’m at the Golden Bay Hotel right now. Why don’t you co find ? We can... haha... start this relationship right away!"
"Boss Guo, I can co to you right now!" Jiang Yan’s eyes filled with an ever-deepening hatred. "But before I do, I hope you can do sothing for !"
"What is it, lah?"
"Help deal with soone!"
Jiang Yan then explained her conflict with Su Xuan.
"This thing of yours, it’s a small matter, lah!" Boss Guo said. "How do you want to deal with him?"
"I want him to kneel before and apologize. I want to slap his face until it’s swollen with my own two hands! No, I want to take a knife and destroy that face that even won are jealous of!"
"Okay, lah, I will satisfy you!"
"Do you swear you can do it?"
"It’s not a life-or-death matter. Just so slapping, a bit of disfiguring, that kind of thing, lah. It’s really a small thing! No need to swear, lah!"
"Then I’m coming to you now!"
Jiang Yan hailed a taxi and went straight to the hotel. Before going upstairs, she took out a small mirror to touch up her makeup, then hiked up her short skirt. She walked into the hotel, pushed open the door to Boss Guo’s room, and was t by the sight of a greasy, shirtless man in shorts, his large belly hanging out.
She said to him, "Boss Guo, my dear..."
...
Su Xuan was completely unaware of what happened after he left. He was diligently working as a Didi driver. Orders were plentiful today; he had already completed five or six trips since leaving Yanyu Tianfu, though unfortunately, none had been lucrative super orders.
RING! RING!
His phone rang just as he was dropping off a passenger. He smiled when he saw the caller ID—it was Feng Ergen.
"Big Brother, your clothes are washed! They look brand new, not a single wrinkle!" Feng Ergen’s daughter’s cheerful voice ca through the phone. "Big Brother, can you tell us where you live? Dad and I want to bring them to you in person."
It was a custom in their hotown to return borrowed items in person to show sincerity.
"Heh, you guys," Su Xuan said with a shake of his head. He texted his address to Feng Ergen’s phone. Feng Ergen had gotten into a fight for him; Su Xuan had truly wanted him to keep the clothes.
"Big Brother, we want to bring it over now. Is anyone ho?"
"Yes."
Although Butler Liu had returned to his ancestral ho to pay his respects, Xiao Yun and her brother, Shi Yazi, were ho.
"Then Dad and I will head over!"
"Okay, be safe on the road."
Su Xuan smiled and hung up. But the instant he ended the call, he noticed sothing strange. A crackling static—SSSHHH...—emanated from the earpiece. This had happened more than once recently.
Is this phone about to break? Maybe it’s ti for a new one.
Just as he was thinking this, another call ca in. It was an unknown number.
This has to be Zhai Defeng.
Su Xuan answered with a smile. "Hello, is this Old Zhai?"
He didn’t dislike Zhai Defeng in the slightest. In fact, he found the man rather interesting, since he always seed to be bringing him so sort of benefit.
"Shit!" Zhai Defeng swore. "Su Xuan, we’re mortal enemies. Can you stop fucking calling Old Zhai? Anyone who heard you would think we’re friends!"
"Alright, Old Zhai. What’s up this ti? Are you calling to schedule a fight with personally?"
"Fight? My ass!" Zhai Defeng snapped. "I’m going to kill you. Tonight. You’d better get your affairs in order!"
