Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
An hour later, Tang Ning, covering her butt, walked into Yang Xinyi’s office in tears, exaggerating Ye Xiong’s misdeeds.
“Brother-in-law is like this, and you’re not going to do anything about it?” Tang Ning said through her crying.
How could she intervene, that guy was like a wild horse that had thrown off its shackles, impossible to control.
Besides, their marriage was only a sham, and neither party really had the right to meddle in the other’s affairs.
However, the truth about the sham marriage was something she definitely couldn’t reveal to this young girl, besides Xiao Fangfang, she didn’t dare tell anyone else, for fear the news would reach her father’s ears, which would lead to trouble.
“Stop provoking that madman. I’ll transfer some spending money to you,” Yang Xinyi, having no other option, reluctantly conceded.
It wasn’t until Yang Xinyi had transferred eighty thousand to her account that Tang Ning’s tears turned to laughter, and she left bouncing joyfully.
Yang Xinyi was about to start working when suddenly her phone rang, picking it up, she saw it was a call from home.
“Dad, have you returned?” Yang Xinyi asked indifferently.
Ever since she slapped He Haodong and fled the wedding, Yang Xinyi’s relationship with her father had become very strained. On top of that, due to her pride, she refused to tell her father the truth about He Haodong cheating with another woman during the wedding, fearing embarrassment, so Yang Dingguo always blamed her for the fallout.
A while back, she had secretly taken the household registration book and married a construction worker, which made Yang Dingguo furious. The father-daughter relationship was now almost irreparable.
“Did Tang Ning run off to your place?” Yang Dingguo asked with a bad attitude.
“Yes, she’s here,” Yang Xinyi replied.
“Your aunt and uncle have arrived in Jiangnan City. Take that guy out for a meal; they want to meet him. Make sure he dresses neatly and doesn’t embarrass us,” Yang Dingguo said before hanging up the phone heavily.
The “guy” he referred to was naturally her own husband, and from her father’s use of the word, it was clear how much he despised his son-in-law.
Yang Xinyi stared blankly at the phone and sighed.
She never imagined that one day her relationship with her father would deteriorate to this extent. She only hoped that her aunt’s visit tonight would help her plead her case. After all, her aunt used to dote on her the most.
Yang Xinyi was about to call Ye Xiong when she remembered he didn’t have his mobile phone with him, so she was unable to contact him for the time being.
With no other choice, she searched online for Mingyang International’s phone number and called to inquire.
However, after several calls, both the receptionists and service desk staff were clueless about Ye Xiong’s whereabouts.
Yang Xinyi had no choice but to drive to Mingyang International Hotel to look for him.
As soon as she entered Mingyang International, a person came up to her excitedly and said, “President Yang, it really is you; is there anything I can do for you?”
As the lobby manager, Wang Tong spent his whole day in the lobby and hurriedly came to greet her as soon as he saw Yang Xinyi enter.
Wang Tong was very clear on who Yang Xinyi was; her presence could be substantial advertisements for the hotel.
“You are?”
“I’m Wang Tong, a friend of Brother Xiong,” Wang Tong quickly introduced himself.
“I have an urgent matter with him, can you help me find him?”
“Why don’t you call him?” Wang Tong asked curiously.
“He left his phone at home,” Yang Xinyi explained.
“Wait here; I’ll go find him immediately.”
Wang Tong rushed off to look for Ye Xiong.
After searching the entire hotel and still not finding Ye Xiong, Wang Tong became extremely anxious.
In the past, Yang Xinyi was an unattainable figure in his mind; he couldn’t even muster the courage to speak to her, let alone assist her. He felt honored to have the opportunity to help her today, but at this critical moment, he had no clue where Ye Xiong had gone.
Could he be in President Du’s office?
Thinking this, Wang Tong knocked on the door to Du Yuehua’s office.
“Come in.”
“Wang Tong, is something the matter?” Du Yuehua asked, seeing him drenched in sweat.
“President Du, do you know where Brother Xiong might be?”
“Call him then,”
“Brother Xiong’s phone was left at home, he didn’t bring it back, and now his wife is looking for him, there might be an emergency,” Wang Tong said anxiously.
Du Yuehua’s body trembled, and she asked excitedly, “Ye Xiong is married?”
“Yes, he’s married, didn’t he tell you?”
“Oh, he might have mentioned it, I wasn’t paying attention,” Du Yuehua replied haphazardly.
“Well, I’ll keep looking then.”
After Wang Tong left, Du Yuehua sat on the chair, dazed, and after a long while, her eyes began to moisten.
She had not expected that Ye Xiong had actually gotten married.
Since he was married, why keep flirting with her everywhere, and just when she was beginning to have feelings for him, deliver such a crushing blow to her.
Recalling her time spent with Ye Xiong, his carefree ways, his domineering attitude, she had gradually let him into her heart. Although he often annoyed her, undeniably, ever since he arrived, her outlook had changed.
She became more optimistic, worked harder, and felt a strong drive in life, all because he was there.
She had even been ready to give herself to him one day, but she never expected that he would be married.
A surge of humiliation rose within her, and Du Yuehua felt deceived.
The lofty image of Ye Xiong in her heart began to crumble.
“This nap was just so comfortable!”
Ye Xiong stretched his arms and pushed open the office door. Seeing Du Yuehua sitting there, lost in thought and acting as if she didn’t notice him enter, completely different from usual, he felt it very strange.
“Sister Hua, who’s made you angry now?”
Du Yuehua’s nose tingled, her eyes reddened, and she scolded, “Who allowed you to come in without knocking? Get out.”
Before Ye Xiong had gone upstairs to sleep, he had stopped by the office to chat with Du Yuehua, and her mood had been pretty good then. But after one nap, she had become like this.
“Sister Hua, did someone bully you? Tell me, and I’ll beat the crap out of them,” Ye Xiong said, starting to get angry.
During his time at the hotel, he had come to regard Du Yuehua as his woman, and seeing her bullied now, his anger erupted on the spot.
Instead of calming her, this prompted Du Yuehua to burst into tears.
She stood up, pushed him out of the office, and slammed the door shut.
“Sister Hua, Sister Hua.”
Ye Xiong kept knocking on the office door, but no matter how much he knocked, Du Yuehua wouldn’t open it.
Out of desperation, Ye Xiong ran downstairs to see if anyone knew what had happened.
“Brother Xiong, I’ve been looking for you for half an hour, how did you end up here?” Wang Tong finally saw Ye Xiong.
“I’m asking you, did something happen to Sister Hua?” Ye Xiong asked anxiously.
“When I saw her just now, she was fine,” Wang Tong said, and then pointing at a figure in the distance, he teased, “Boss, you better hurry over there; your wife has been waiting for you for half an hour.”
Ye Xiong spotted Yang Xinyi sitting in the seat ahead, her face unhappy.
Waiting here for two hours would make anyone unhappy.
“Wang Tong, did you tell Sister Hua she was looking for me?” Ye Xiong asked.
“Yes!” Seeing Ye Xiong’s grumpy face, Wang Tong timidly asked, “Brother Xiong, I didn’t say the wrong thing, did I?”
“It’s fine, you go ahead and get busy,” Ye Xiong waved him off, gesturing for him to leave.
Even though his marriage to Yang Xinyi was a sham, Wang Tong didn’t know that, nor was he aware of the nature of Ye Xiong’s relationship with Du Yuehua, so it wasn’t his fault.
The one to blame was himself for not explaining clearly to Sister Hua.
“If you have something to say, say it fast,” Ye Xiong said irritably as he sat down in front of Yang Xinyi.
