Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her

Chapter 472

After her call with Tang Xi, Ye Yuning had a meeting with the design department staff because they were expanding the branch. Consequently, those who had demonstrated outstanding abilities in the studio were now being promoted. They were also being consulted individually about taking charge of matters at the new branch.The designers all valued their careers greatly, so no one raised any objections to relocating.

After the meeting and individual consultations with the designers, it was time to clock out.

She and Ling Yan dined at a nearby restaurant.

Despite the years that had passed, Ling Yan still held herself with an air of lofty superiority.

Upon seeing the restaurant Ye Yuning had chosen, Ling Yan made her discontent quite clear.

"After all these years apart, this is what you invite me to eat?" Her words dripped with disdain.

Ye Yuning snorted. "Eat it or don’t. If you’re willing, then eat more."

"Tsk, tsk, with that attitude, aren’t you afraid I’ll devour you this time?" Ling Yan sneered.

Ye Yuning gave her a cold glance in response.

Threatening someone so openly... Ling Yan was probably the first person she’d encountered like this!

Not wanting to engage in irrelevant chatter, Ye Yuning got straight to the point. "What exactly is going on between you and Ye Tong?"

"She’s caused you quite a bit of trouble, hasn’t she?"

Ling Yan didn’t answer what was going on, but her question infuriated Ye Yuning enough.

That damn woman!

"Are you doing this on purpose?"

"She’s the legitimate young lady of the Ye Family. What are you dissatisfied about?" Ling Yan said, stuffing a piece of liver into her mouth.

Then, a look of disgust crossed her face. This place isn’t good, and the food doesn’t taste great either.

Ye Yuning asked, "I have no enmity or grudge against you. Why are you doing these things to target me?"

Ye Yuning truly didn’t understand this. Even now, she couldn’t figure out what feud she had with Ling Yan. Ever since they met, this woman had been causing her trouble and stealing her things. Now that they had finally graduated and gone their separate ways, this woman was stirring up trouble again!

Ling Yan asked, "You think I’m targeting you?"

"Isn’t that the case?"

"I’m doing this for your own good!"

Ye Yuning was speechless. What on earth? For her own good? She hadn’t misheard, had she? Ling Yan said she was doing it for her own good? What did that even mean!?

Ye Yuning had always thought her comprehension skills were quite good, but facing Ling Yan now, her brain felt a bit stuck.

Seeing Ye Yuning silent, Ling Yan chuckled lightly. "What? Don’t believe me?"

Ye Yuning rolled her eyes directly at her. "Do you even believe that yourself!?"

For her own good, huh? She recalled Xiao Linye saying that Qin Jinchuan liked her, so he was secretly pressuring her. Could such strange things really happen in this world? It was one thing for a man like Qin Jinchuan... But hearing Ling Yan say something like she was doing it for her own good, Ye Yuning felt it wasn’t just ordinarily frightening.

"No, really, what exactly do you mean?" she asked, completely bewildered.

Ling Yan met her bewildered gaze and smiled faintly.

To Ye Yuning, that smile was indescribably creepy.

"So, Ye Tong is someone you found to deal with me? What on earth did I do to you for you to be so set against me?"

Ye Yuning was genuinely getting angry.

This Ling Yan, if it were anyone else...! She would definitely make this woman suffer. But there was nothing she could do. Against this woman, it had always been like an arm wrestling a thigh; she could never win.

Ling Yan asked, "Have you heard of the Mino project in Hong City’s Upper Edge?"

Ye Yuning was silent. She had. That project was currently a mess; it seemed to have been abandoned last year. Originally intended to be a landmark tourist area for Hong City, it had now become a complete joke in Hong City. What did Ling Yan mean by bringing it up now?

Before Ye Yuning could speak, Ling Yan said, "I’m in charge of that project now."

"The Ling Family took it over?" Ye Yuning was shocked. No way! The Ling Family members aren’t saints; why would they take on such a mess? New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novel•fire.net

Ling Yan nodded. "Help me complete this project."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yuning couldn’t help but gasp.

"No way, you..."

Ling Yan stated, "You will do it personally!"

Ye Yuning stammered, completely infuriated, "Wait, you’ve won such a huge award, and you’re asking me?"

However, what she didn’t know was that the Ling Family had taken on this mess of a project precisely because they believed Ling Yan had the capability. As her family, they were completely unaware that all her outstanding achievements in school back then were stolen. Half a year ago, when they got that project back, it was handed to Ling Yan. Now that the project was being reconsidered, Ling Yan had also come to Upper City.

Ye Yuning didn’t know the twists and turns involved, but connecting Ling Yan with Ye Tong infuriated her.

"You used Ye Tong to run me around in such a huge circle, just to wait for me here?!" Her voice rose, clearly filled with anger.

The amount of grief Ye Tong had caused her recently was beyond words. But who could tell her? All of this was being manipulated from behind the scenes! And the manipulator was Ling Yan... What on earth was this all about?

Ling Yan shrugged. "How’s life with your current husband? Is it good?"

"Are you threatening *me*?" Ye Yuning’s voice was sharp. "Believe it or not, I’ll expose all those shameful things you did back then!"

"You won’t. You’re not that kind of gossip," Ling Yan stated with conviction.

Ye Yuning was so angry she was about to explode. So what was this? Was she being taken advantage of because of her good character?

On the spot, Ye Yuning angrily pulled out her phone and dialed Xia Andai’s number.

Xia Andai was currently the most famous reporter in Upper City; the credibility of her reports was one hundred percent.
