Chapter 418
Qin Jinchuan’s forehead throbbed with prominent veins as he erupted in anger!Through gritted teeth, he said into the phone, "I’m telling you, woman, you...!"
"Aren’t we supposed to go eat at the Green Tea Restaurant? What, can’t find your scumbag restaurant?"
Qin Jinchuan said, "There really is a Green Tea Restaurant! Don’t believe me? Come out with me tonight, I’ll take you there."
"Heh, you can go eat there yourself, scumbag!"
"How the hell am I a scumbag?" Qin Jinchuan was frantic.
This woman, just giving him a thrashing out of nowhere.
There really is a Green Tea Restaurant, okay? She’s letting her imagination run wild and now blames him for supposedly implying things about her.
Qin Jinchuan’s chest ached with suppressed fury!
Ye Yuning then asked, "Xiangti, it was your people, wasn’t it?"
Qin Jinchuan was speechless.
Ye Yuning continued, "Young Master Qin, did you play the fool for so long that now you treat everyone as fools?"
"You, woman!"
"If you’re looking for that recording, sorry, but something that important, do you think I’d just leave it lying around?"
Qin Jinchuan was speechless again.
"What a scumbag, HUMPH!"
With a final HUMPH, Ye Yuning promptly hung up the phone.
And that last "HUMPH," as if it possessed some sort of demonic power, left Qin Jinchuan utterly dumbfounded.
Listening to the dial tone, he turned to Shi Yan and Qin Yu with a dumbstruck expression.
At that moment, both were trying hard to suppress their laughter.
Seeing him hang up, they shamelessly burst out laughing.
Qin Jinchuan’s face darkened. "You two..."
"Scumbag Restaurant, HAHAHA, see, you really got her mad now."
Qin Jinchuan took a deep breath.
That damned woman!
"There really is a Green Tea Restaurant, and the food there is quite good," he insisted.
Qin Yu suggested, "Why not open a Scumbag Restaurant for her? That would even things out, right? Symmetrical!"
Qin Jinchuan gritted his teeth. "Shut up."
This damnable woman, actually daring to call and curse him out. It wasn’t that she was particularly cunning; she was simply petty, vindictive, and refused to suffer the slightest disadvantage.
Xiao Linye frowned, unsure what Qin Jinchuan was thinking.
Today, Shi Yan and Qin Yu had fully witnessed Qin Jinchuan’s embarrassment.
Looking at the two of them acting so shamelessly, Qin Jinchuan angrily turned to Xiao Linye. "You were right, that woman is very scheming."
At that moment, Qin Jinchuan had to admit that she was not someone to be trifled with.
Anyone else would not have dared make that call to him. Not only did Ye Yuning make that call, but she also berated him over the phone...
Xiao Linye’s gaze settled on him, his breathing deepening slightly.
He wasn’t sure if it was just his imagination. However, he had a feeling that the voice on the phone with Qin Jinchuan sounded a lot like his little girl’s.
「On Ye Yuning’s side.」
After hanging up on Qin Jinchuan, she didn’t feel any better.
Immediately after, she dialed another number—it was Yan Jun’s!
The call was quickly answered. "Ningning."
"I want to open a restaurant, like, immediately."
"You’re doing so well with your design work, why open a restaurant?"
Ye Yuning said, "You start it, I’ll invest."
"Such a good offer?"
Yan Jun instantly perked up. This was great, as she had just been thinking about opening another restaurant.
Ye Yuning clenched her teeth. "Call it ’Scumbag’!"
Yan Jun was speechless. Her initial excitement was doused as if by a bucket of cold water.
"You what?!"
"Is there really a restaurant called Green Tea?" Ye Yuning asked through clenched teeth.
Yan Jun replied, "Yes, on the street next to mine."
Ye Yuning was shocked. So it really existed?
"Then let’s open ’Scumbag’!"
"Who got under your skin?" Yan Jun asked.
Seeing her this infuriated, it was obvious the restaurant’s name was born out of spite.
Could it be she was having problems with her husband?
Tang Xi’s marriage had already cast a shadow over Yan Jun’s perception of marriage.
Now, hearing Ye Yuning like this, she couldn’t help but feel her heart sink.
Ye Yuning declared, "I just want to use it to annoy Qin Jinchuan!"
"Annoy him?" Yan Jun asked.
"Yes, annoy him!"
"Isn’t that going a bit too far? Opening a restaurant costs a fortune."
"I don’t care!" Ye Yuning was so furious she’d lost all reason.
Yan Jun hesitated, seeing how insistent she was.
Ye Yuning was different from Tang Xi. Whereas Tang Xi had quietly endured her suffering in that marriage, Ye Yuning wouldn’t take any loss at all. She had already shown the Qin Family what she was made of.
Now that the Young Master of the Qin Family had pushed her too far, she was willing to pay any price just to annoy him.
Is this girl rolling in money, or is she just that vindictive? Yan Jun wondered.
"Are you certain about opening a restaurant?"
"Yes, and it would be best if it could open tomorrow!"
"That’s doable. The rustic eatery next door is up for sale; do you want me to take care of it?"
"That’s fine. Remember, the sign must say ’Scumbag’!"
Yan Jun was taken aback. Will people actually come to eat there?
Ye Yuning was truly furious, but she was also using this to send a clear message to Qin Jinchuan: she wasn’t to be messed with.
Just thinking about today’s robbery and Xiangti’s boutique being burgled reminded her that Qin Jinchuan was behind it all. She couldn’t swallow this indignation.
Although she couldn’t actually do anything substantial to Qin Jinchuan, making him uncomfortable was still within her power.
Thus, Yan Jun fast-tracked the acquisition of the rustic eatery next door and arranged for a sign to be made overnight!
After hanging up, Ye Yuning felt slightly better.
She worked for another hour, and then Xiao Linye came to pick her up after work.
Ye Yuning saw him at the elevator entrance as she exited. If she had been a moment later, he probably would have gone up to get her.
The moment their eyes met, Ye Yuning could tell that Xiao Linye’s gaze seemed deeper than before.
