Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her

Chapter 451

Xiao Shuo was now thoroughly baffled by Ye Yuning’s actions.From last night to today, Uncle Qi had already urged everyone in Upper City to propose contract terminations with Manlang.

At a time like this, she still dared to have me deliver such words to Uncle Qi? She really must have a death wish...

Xiao Shuo had always known Ye Yuning had a strong will, but he never imagined she could be this stubborn!

"Hey, Ye Yuning..." BEEP BEEP BEEP! Before he could say anything, she had already hung up.

Listening to the dial tone, Xiao Shuo was completely dumbfounded.

I didn’t mishear, did I? This woman really has a death wish. Since she wants to die so badly, I might as well oblige her.

Thinking this, Xiao Shuo immediately headed to the President’s office.

As he exited the elevator, he happened to see Xiao Linye and Kang Xuan returning from the direction of the conference room.

He hurriedly approached respectfully, "Uncle Qi."

At his words, Xiao Linye gave him a cold glance.

Xiao Shuo shivered at the look but still instinctively stepped forward. "That woman asked me to deliver a message to you!"

That woman?

Kang Xuan: "..."

Lai Shuo: "..."

The woman Xiao Shuo was referring to was well known to them by now.

Xiao Shuo’s ex-fiancée had actually started rumors about herself and Seventh Master!

No matter how one looked at it, it seemed that woman had ulterior motives. She likely intended to ride Seventh Master’s coattails to bolster Manlang’s strength in Upper City.

When Xiao Linye heard Xiao Shuo bring up "that woman," he turned and entered the office. "Come in!"

Xiao Shuo immediately followed him.

Lai Shuo and Kang Xuan exchanged a glance, Lai Shuo’s eyes filled with confusion.

He felt that something wasn’t quite right... After all, if Seventh Master was willing to dine with the boss of Manlang, their relationship should be good, right? When had Seventh Master ever dined alone with a business partner? Logically speaking, how could two people with such a good relationship now be at the point of tearing each other’s faces off? Or had that woman really crossed the line!?

With such rumors spreading throughout Upper City, it was hard to believe the woman hadn’t orchestrated them herself.

Inside the office, when Xiao Linye heard the exact words Xiao Shuo conveyed, his expression became incomparably grim.

"She really said that?" As he spoke, his words were ground out.

Xiao Shuo nodded frantically. "She—she’s gone mad! That’s exactly how she spoke of you."

A flash of icy coldness crossed Xiao Linye’s brow before he let out a derisive laugh.

Very good. Very good indeed! First, she called me an old man, and now she’s directly saying I’m crazy and tells me to wait? Wait for what? Does she think she can devour me whole? Her little, rundown studio probably couldn’t last three more days, yet she dares to challenge me. I truly underestimated that woman’s audacity...

Xiao Linye lit a cigarette, took a drag, and then said coldly, "Then you deliver a message to her as well."

"What message does Uncle Qi want me to deliver?"

What message? Can I relay a curse to her?

Xiao Linye’s head ached terribly. Finally, he waved his hand in annoyance. "Forget it!"

"For-forget it?" Xiao Shuo looked at Xiao Linye in shock.

That’s it? Isn’t that letting that damned woman off too easily? She dared to curse someone so arrogantly; she definitely needs to be taught a lesson.

However, for Xiao Linye at this moment, a lesson was indeed necessary, but not in the way Xiao Shuo meant.

"Leave."

Xiao Linye closed his eyes, his patience completely gone.

Seeing him like this, Xiao Shuo, who had wanted to voice his indignation, swallowed his words, not daring to say more.

He nodded. "Then, I’ll leave first."

Although Uncle Qi hadn’t said anything, Xiao Shuo felt that this time Ye Yuning was in for more than she could handle. With Uncle Qi’s temperament, how could he possibly swallow this affront? I’ll just wait and see how Uncle Qi finishes Ye Yuning off! That damned woman was so arrogant before; this is entirely her retribution.

Kang Xuan and Lai Shuo were outside. Seeing Xiao Shuo exit looking cheerful, they thought something pleasant had occurred.

But when Kang Xuan entered the office, he saw Xiao Linye with a dark expression!

Instantly, cold sweat broke out on his back. He called out in a low voice, "Master."

Xiao Linye took a deep breath and closed his eyes. "By tomorrow, I don’t want to hear of any company in Upper City cooperating with Manlang."

Kang Xuan: "..."

This...!

Even knowing some of the reasons why Xiao Linye was so antagonistic towards Miss Ye, Kang Xuan still felt he was being a bit unreasonable. Choosing whether or not to cooperate with Manlang should be up to others, right?

Kang Xuan hesitantly scratched the back of his head. "Master, isn’t this... unnecessary?"

After all, she had only casually called him an old man, and now he was about to wipe her out.

If word of this got out, it would seem as though he was the one being unreasonable.

Upon hearing Kang Xuan’s words, Xiao Linye shot him a cold look. "Unnecessary?"

Meeting that icy and dangerous gaze, Kang Xuan, who was already tense, stiffened even more.

He forced a chuckle. "After all, she’s just a girl, and it’s normal for girls to gossip. Who knows, maybe even Madam is like that behind your back?"

With these words, the atmosphere in the office grew even more piercing and oppressive!

Kang Xuan, sensing the danger, wished he could slap himself. What was I saying? Whatever my point, I shouldn’t have dragged Madam into it...

Xiao Linye snorted coldly. "She is nothing like that!"

Kang Xuan immediately nodded in agreement. "Yes, Madam is nothing like that. That Miss Ye is truly awful."

Speaking of which, both were surnamed Ye. It was really hard to say.
