Chapter 310: Chapter 310: Are You Jealous?
Xu Mingzhe and Qi Shijie had a feud, which indeed piqued Ye Xunhuan’s curiosity. He had no idea that the two knew each other, and moreover, they actually freaking couldn’t get along!
"Does Brother Xu have a grudge against him?"
"It’s not exactly a grudge, just some minor old grievances," Xu Mingzhe said indifferently, "Don’t be fooled by his gentlemanly looks, he’s actually full of mischief inside!"
"Would it be convenient for Brother Xu to talk about the issues between you?"
"There’s nothing inconvenient about it, it’s just that back when we were teenagers and full of youthful exuberance, I led some guys in beating him up. Later, this worthless fellow told his mom, who ended up coming to my house, and I was almost strung up and beaten by my old man!" Xu Mingzhe explained simply, "After that, our conflict just grew!"
From Xu Mingzhe’s words, Ye Xunhuan could tell that Qi Shijie’s background must be significant; his mother was definitely no pushover!
You should know that Xu Mingzhe is a major figure in Zhonghai Province, but Qi Shijie’s mother dared to take her son to confront him right at Xu’s doorstep, and it was Xu’s own father who wanted to beat him up!
Would an ordinary person dare approach Xu Mingzhe’s doorstep like that?
You should know that Xu Mingzhe is a prominent official’s son. Generally speaking, such sons are not great at handling matters but are top-notch at causing trouble and scheming.
If Qi Shijie’s family were just moderately wealthy or mere businessmen, they absolutely wouldn’t dare to do such a thing.
It’s simply looking for discomfort.
It seems the conflict that originally formed between Xu Mingzhe and Qi Shijie wasn’t minor at all, otherwise, why would Qi Shijie’s mother intervene?
These people cared immensely about face; when kids fight, having an adult step in is outright bullying!
So unless it’s absolutely necessary, when the younger ones fight, the elders usually turn a blind eye.
"It’s just that this pretty boy later went to Yale University in America to study, and we rarely saw him again, but I never expected he would come back now!"
"Do you mean he’s difficult to deal with, Brother Xu?"
"He’s absolutely tough to handle!" Xu Mingzhe stated emphatically, "Young Brother Ye, I’ll need to ask for your help with this brother of mine in the future..."
"Brother Xu, what are you talking about? Your matters are my matters. Don’t worry, the moment there’s any hint of trouble, I’ll inform you straight away!" Ye Xunhuan said with righteous fervor, his manner quite reminiscent of an avenging hero!
"Good, good!" Xu Mingzhe was overjoyed, "Then it’s settled, Young Brother Ye, I won’t disturb you any longer. One of these days, I must treat you and your sister-in-law to dinner. You must grace us with your presence!"
"Absolutely, absolutely!"
Afterward, Xu Mingzhe left the premises of the Royal Chart Group.
"Xunhuan, what were you guys talking about?" Tang Yurou asked with a face full of confusion, "I didn’t understand a word!"
Ye Xunhuan chuckled, "No worries, I’ve set up a ’dog eat dog’ scenario!"
Hearing Ye Xunhuan say this, Tang Yurou didn’t ask anything more!
......
Just after lunch, Qiu Ruoxi called Ye Xunhuan over.
"Honey, you wanted to see me for something?"
After Ye Xunhuan walked into Qiu Ruoxi’s office, he plopped down on the chair across from her desk and picked up the cup from which Qiu Ruoxi had just drunk a sip of tea, and he started drinking from it.
Upon seeing this, Qiu Ruoxi’s eyes widened in astonishment; this rascal was actually using my cup to drink water, and it was even the one I had just used!
"Ye Xunhuan, who allowed you to use my cup?" Qiu Ruoxi said through clenched teeth.
From childhood to adulthood, anything that Qiu Ruoxi used was basically never touched by a man, but this jerk had the nerve to use her most frequently used drinking cup!
"You didn’t say I couldn’t use it!"
"You..." Qiu Ruoxi took a deep breath, suppressing the rage in her heart, "Ye Xunhuan, did you scheme to bring Xu Mingzhe here?"
"Wow, wife, you’re so smart!" Ye Xunhuan said admiringly, "You guessed right away!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Qiu Ruoxi’s delicate nose twitched slightly. Was there even anything to guess?
Qi Shijie didn’t come, Xu Mingzhe didn’t come, but as soon as Qi Shijie arrived, this guy showed up, ripping Qi Shijie apart, then Xu Mingzhe came and did the same to Qi Shijie!
If that was a coincidence, Qiu Ruoxi would never believe it.
Initially, she thought that based on Ye Xunhuan’s shameless temperament, he would never admit it, but to her surprise, he just confessed.
"How is Qi Shijie doing, was he driven to desperation by Xu Mingzhe?" Ye Xunhuan asked curiously.
"What do you think?"
"I think not, that guy is very cunning!" Ye Xunhuan said seriously, "Look at how I mocked him and he had no reaction at all, he’s definitely tough to handle. I feel Xu Mingzhe is even less capable than me, I couldn’t make him lose his cool, let alone Xu Mingzhe!"
"You know and still you ask!"
"But, wife, your taste is really quite common, fancying such a scheming BOY!"
"Who told you I fancied him?" Qiu Ruoxi was stunned!
"You don’t fancy him?" Ye Xunhuan felt a surge of joy, but curled his lip and said, "If you didn’t fancy him, would you sit and laugh with him?"
"He used to be my senior, he helped me during school, and now that he’s back, he came here; am I supposed to kick him out..."
As she spoke, Qiu Ruoxi seemed to realize something and stared straight at Ye Xunhuan, "Are you jealous, is that it?"
"Joking!" Ye Xunhuan scoffed, "How could I possibly be jealous? I would rather you find another man, then I’d be free, I could be with whichever woman I want!"
"Then, I could seek pleasure every night, and maybe even change women every few days!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s words, Qiu Ruoxi’s expression immediately turned cold, and her white teeth gnashed audibly, wishing she could strangle this shameless creature in front of her right away!
Was she really so annoying?
He actually wished she would find some other man!
But suddenly, Qiu Ruoxi seemed to think of something, and her grim expression slowly improved a bit, "Ye Xunhuan, just continue hiding your jealous heart!"
"Anyway, when someone chases me, you know who feels uncomfortable!"
As she spoke, a smug expression appeared on Qiu Ruoxi’s face, as if telling Ye Xunhuan, I’ve seen right through you; there’s no use hiding it from me!
Upon hearing Qiu Ruoxi’s words, a look of surprise flashed across Ye Xunhuan’s face, "You noticed?"
"What do you think?"
Ye Xunhuan sighed helplessly, "Since you noticed, I won’t hide it anymore, yes, I’m annoyed inside, why should my wife, who hasn’t even consummated our marriage, be taken by someone else? Even if someone is to take you away, at least wait until after our wedding night. It wouldn’t be a loss to turn you into a second-hand girl then. Otherwise, it’s too unfair for me..."
Qiu Ruoxi’s expression, which had just improved, darkened once more as her fists clenched tightly, and her delicate body trembled uncontrollably in the moment!
