My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 65: Eighty-Five Cents_1
The next day, after Ye Xiong dropped off Yang Xinyi back at the company, he drove back to the hotel.

As soon as he returned to the hotel, Wang Tong ran over and said, “Brother Xiong, are you free tonight? My mom wants to invite you to dinner.”

“With Madame Wang so enthusiastic, I definitely have to go,” Ye Xiong said with a laugh.

“We’ll go together after work, I need to get to work now,” Wang Tong said and then hurried off to get busy.

Tonight was Saturday and business was especially good in the morning; guests were everywhere, and the waitstaff seemed very busy.

“The company must be starting to turn a profit now. Sister Hua made a bet with me that if the hotel starts making a profit within three months, she owes me a kiss. This is a serious matter and cannot be taken lightly.”

Ye Xiong made his rounds and then quickly dashed to the finance department.

Since Du Yuehua had given him prior notice, Ye Xiong could check the financial statements at any time.

“Little Ting Ting, you look so pretty today, where did you buy this dress?” Ye Xiong asked with a smile.

Jiang Ting was an accountant in the hotel’s finance department. Ye Xiong often strolled in when he was free, and after coming and going, they became quite familiar with each other.

“You’ve come at just the right time; last month’s financial statement is out!” Jiang Ting said, and handed him the report that was already prepared on the side.

Ye Xiong glanced at it, and immediately jumped up excitedly, then suddenly grabbed Jiang Ting’s face and kissed her on the forehead before darting off.

“President Ye, you’ve gone too far; I have a boyfriend,” Jiang Ting’s indignant voice could be heard from afar.

As Ye Xiong walked, he looked at the report, his heart thrumming with excitement!

Last month, there was a profit of eighty-five cents.

Eighty-five cents!

Earning Sister Hua’s kiss for eighty-five cents was a huge gain for him.

Clutching the report, Ye Xiong headed straight for Du Yuehua’s office.

Lately, he had been busy with the hotel and had also been on assignment at Yang Xinyi’s company. He hadn’t chatted with Du Yuehua in several days and was quite anxious about it.

Knock knock!

“Come in.”

Ye Xiong pushed the door open, casually locked it behind him, and a lecherous smile appeared on his lips as he slowly approached like a big bad wolf.

When Du Yuehua looked up and saw him locking the office door, she was startled.

“Ye Xiong, what are you trying to do? This is an office; don’t mess around,” she warned.

Did she mean that outside of the office, messing around was okay?

“Sister Hua, I’m here to collect a bounty,” Ye Xiong chuckled.

“What bounty?”

Ye Xiong placed the report on her desk and said with a smile, “This is the account statement prepared by the finance department. Last month, the hotel made a profit of eighty-five cents.”

Hearing this, Du Yuehua couldn’t help but laugh and nodded, “Congratulations, you’ll get half of the profit share this month, which is forty-two and a half cents.”

“And a kiss,” Ye Xiong reminded her.

“What kiss?” Du Yuehua feigned ignorance, her face flushing red.

“That was your promise, if we start making profits within three months, you’ll kiss me. You can’t go back on your word,” Ye Xiong said as he leaned in, giggling, “A life for a life, a debt for a debt, I’ll have to claim that kiss myself if you don’t give it.”

After he spoke, he leaned across the desk toward Du Yuehua’s face.

“Don’t move; I’ll do it myself,” Du Yuehua quickly said.

“Haha, then I’ll wait.”

Du Yuehua’s face turned beet red, she steeled herself and swiftly kissed Ye Xiong on the cheek.

But just as she finished kissing him, Ye Xiong suddenly picked her up and pressed her onto the sofa.

Du Yuehua was startled, not expecting him to be so bold, and promptly struggled.

Ye Xiong wouldn’t let her escape and kissed her fiercely.

Last time in the office, Xiao Mei had interrupted them, and he definitely wouldn’t allow that to happen again.

“Ye Xiong, we can’t do this here…” Du Yuehua pushed him away, adjusted her disheveled hair, and said with a flushed face, “Tonight, come to my place, okay?”

“Let’s have a round now, and I’ll go over tonight.”

“No, I can’t get into it here.” After saying this, Du Yuehua was so embarrassed she couldn’t even lift her head.

Did her words mean that she could get into it at home tonight?

Ye Xiong’s eyes shone for a moment, repressed the flame of his desire, and stood up.

A woman’s first time is very important; if they left a shadow on her, there would be trouble.

Thinking of their long-term happiness, Ye Xiong decided it was best to hold back for now.

A gentleman can wait until the end of the day for the pleasure.

Exiting the office, Ye Xiong started whistling, thrilled at the thought of being with Sister Hua tonight, enjoying the unique charm of a young matron – he wished he could fast-forward time on his phone.

He had planned it all out, knowing women love romance. He’d take Sister Hua to King’s house for dinner tonight, and after eating, they’d watch a movie. In the dark, a touch here, a touch there, and when they were both at the peak of arousal, they’d go back and revel in their passions!

It was going to be an unforgettable night!

Ye Xiong sighed against the wall, completely oblivious to the drool escaping from the corner of his mouth and dripping onto the floor.

After work, Ye Xiong immediately went to find Du Yuehua, and they drove to King and Xiao Mei’s granny’s place.

“Brother Xiong, I have good news for you.” When Xiao Mei was not around, King whispered, “I’m planning to marry Xiao Mei. We’re going to get the marriage certificate tomorrow.”

“So soon?” Ye Xiong was surprised.

“Xiao Mei…is pregnant, so, you know.” King scratched his head and chuckled.

“Good on you, buddy,” Ye Xiong gave a thumbs up and admired, “As expected from someone who’s been holding out for over twenty years, you’ve shot to success in one go.”

“Actually, I didn’t plan to settle down so early; I wanted to enjoy life for a couple more years, but Xiao Mei’s pregnant now, there’s no choice,” King said earnestly, reminding, “Brother Xiong, learn from my lesson. You must take safety precautions.”

The reminder couldn’t have been timelier. Ye Xiong was planning to go all out tonight, but if he didn’t take precautions, he could end up being a happy father.

Ye Xiong shivered at the thought.

He was hardly taking care of himself now, let alone a little one.

Moreover, having a little brat would mean competing for milk.

No, absolutely not, safety measures were a must.

While the two men were whispering among themselves, Du Yuehua and Xiao Mei were also murmuring on the side.

When Du Yuehua heard about Xiao Mei’s pregnancy, she was happy for her.

Just then, Xiao Mei suddenly asked, “President Du, tell me, do you like Ye Xiong?”

Although Du Yuehua was Xiao Mei’s boss, Xiao Mei had been with her for many years. Off the record, they were good friends and spoke without reservation.

“A little bit,” Du Yuehua replied with a red face and awkwardly.

“Then do you want to marry him?” Xiao Mei continued to ask.

“That guy’s a playboy, not so easy to tie down,” Du Yuehua sighed.

“To tie a man down, you first need to give him something to worry about,” Xiao Mei moved closer and whispered, “Although Ye Xiong is a lowlife, he’s still responsible. If you ‘accidentally’ get pregnant, he’s sure to take on the responsibility of being a father.”

“You mean?”

“Absolutely no protection, let him go no touch unless he agrees,” Xiao Mei, speaking from experience, held her head high and said, “That’s how I got King in line.”

Du Yuehua nodded firmly, stating, “I’ll follow your advice, no safety measures.”

If Ye Xiong overheard this conversation between the two women at this moment, he would probably panic.
