Chapter 61: Kissed Just Like That?
In Qian’s heart, Yu Minglang is steady and restrained. To her, he is someone with strong principles, gentle and harmless.
In Qian’s heart, Zheng Xu is insidious and skilled in scheming. In his mind, interests always come first. He dared to make a move knowing Yu Minglang’s background, but his facade totally shattered!
It’s these two seemingly unlikely-to-clash men who ended up fighting!
And they fought in that kind of messy, chaotic way!
Yu Minglang was noticeably getting the upper hand. Although Zheng Xu was also a street fighter, skilled in practical techniques, he was far inferior to Yu Minglang. Due to his anger over Zheng Xu almost taking advantage of Qian, Yu Minglang targeted Zheng Xu’s face, hitting him hard.
Seeing his boss getting pummeled punch after punch squarely in the face by Yu Minglang, the younger brother couldn’t take it anymore.
He returned to the car and fetched a baseball bat. Qian saw the younger brother heading back to the car and sensed trouble; she couldn’t let Yu Minglang suffer!
The younger brother came out with the bat. Qian’s instinct kicked in before her body reacted and she dashed quickly to help Yu Minglang. The younger brother swung the bat down, and Yu Minglang raised his arms without hesitation to shield Qian. With a crunching sound, the bat broke.
The younger brother was stunned. Is this guy’s muscle made of steel?
Seeing Yu Minglang getting hit angered Qian, she rushed over and slapped Zheng Xu hard!
"Zheng Xu! Are you an idiot? Why are you hitting him?"
Zheng Xu: ...
Hey, I’m the one being beaten up, okay!!! Didn’t you see how badly he beat me? You didn’t see him also breaking my bat?! ← These were Zheng Xu’s real thoughts.
"If you touch him again, Zheng Xu, I won’t care even if you’re dead. We’re ending the cooperation immediately!"
"What cooperation, end it right now!" Yu Minglang interjected, still feeling unsatisfied with his beating.
Qian glared at him, "You shut up too!"
Zheng Xu was full of anger. Chen Xiaoqian was clearly biased, how much favor does she show towards Mr. Yu?
"Boss, should I go up and beat this guy?" The younger brother looked at the broken bat, said tremblingly, sobbing. He wasn’t really scared at all... just kidding!
This man didn’t seem particularly ferocious, how could he break the thickened bat with ease and still remain expressionless?
"What the hell are you going to beat, get in the car!" Zheng Xu squeezed this sentence through his teeth.
"Uh?" Is this still the boss?
Accepting this humiliating loss like that?
Zheng Xu walked up to Qian, Yu Minglang pulled Qian over to him, forcibly moved her behind himself, and glared at Zheng Xu domineeringly.
"Chen Xiaoqian, it’s all a misunderstanding, don’t take it to heart—who is this savage man to you?"
"He’s my—" How to introduce him? In the past life was he the father of her child?
"I’m her boyfriend!" Yu Minglang answered for her, while giving Zheng Xu a sharp warning.
"You stay away from her!"
"Tsk tsk, just a boyfriend... you’re not even her husband, how could you control her. She’s free now, right, Chen Xiaoqian?"
Chen Xiaoqian was already stunned by Yu Minglang.
Boyfriend?
When did that happen? Why didn’t she know?
Seeing her blank expression, Zheng Xu smirked triumphantly, "Looks like even this ’boyfriend’ of yours isn’t very significant."
Biu! Yu Minglang’s heart was brutally stabbed. Indeed, his identity was not very secure, self-appointed, cough cough.
"Zheng Xu, don’t be excessive, we have agreed to three principles, today you have transgressed."
This time it was Zheng Xu who couldn’t smile.
A leader can be both decisive and flexible. Zheng Xu understood that fighting with Yu Minglang right now would surely make him look bad in front of Qian—Yu Minglang, this guy, is incredibly formidable, you couldn’t beat him.
Moreover, it was more important he had an agreement with Qian. If he angered Qian, she wouldn’t treat him in the future, which would be troublesome.
There’ll be more opportunities.
Thinking this, Zheng Xu smiled and waved at Qian.
"Today was just a joke, don’t take it to heart, let’s continue as we are, see you next week."
When he said see you next week, Yu Minglang had a murderous look in his eyes, Zheng Xu glanced at him smugly, opened the car door and got in, shutting the door, his face darkened.
"Boss, just leave it like that?" The younger brother was unwilling.
"Nonsense, drive!" Zheng Xu turned around and saw Yu Minglang pulling Qian into his Cherokee, his eyes fierce.
If not leaving it like that, what then? He can’t beat Mr. Yu, nor can he offend Chen Xiaoqian, first stabilize the chick, deal with it later.
He couldn’t believe it, he with a Benz couldn’t beat someone with a broken Cherokee?
Yet knowing Yu Minglang’s background, Zheng Xu still dared not let his guard down.
Mr. Yu just took over the company, but his family...
He is so busy, could he guard Chen Xiaoqian every day? No matter the background, Zheng Xu felt he always had more chances than Yu Minglang.
Yu Minglang practically stuffed Qian into the car.
"Ow!" Qian complained as she was pushed, hitting her head against the seatback.
Yu Minglang had a stern face, stepped on the gas pedal, not speaking to her, the veins on his gripping hand bulged.
"In the middle of the night, where are you taking me?" Qian only felt relieved that just now, when these two lunatics fought, her mom wasn’t startled, otherwise it would be hard to explain.
"My place."
Yu Minglang was doing his best to restrain his emotions, which was quite formidable to unsettle him emotionally like this, this girl really is something!
"... Are we that close? Do you know what time it is now?" In the dead of night, dragging someone off to his place, how shameless could he be?
Her words made Yu Minglang slam on the brakes, stopping the car at the entrance of the urban village.
He turned his head, "You’re close to somebody named Zheng? In the middle of the night, why were you meeting him?"
"I’m meeting him because there are matters to discuss, it’s none of your business."
Besides, Zheng Xu just parked his car at the entrance, unlike him, directly dragging people into his car whether they agreed or not, simply forcing them home!
"What matters? What reason do you have to discuss at night with that kind of decaying bourgeoisie?! What did he even do? If I didn’t come, you’d just let him take advantage!"
Thinking of that moment still pricked him, Yu Minglang just wished he could have beaten Zheng Xu into a pulp earlier.
"He was just joking, Zheng Xu isn’t usually like that—mmm!"
Qian’s eyes widened in disbelief; he, he actually kissed her?
Illusion, it must be an illusion!
What was pressed against her lips was an illusion.
This was Yu, in the past life she pursued him actively, and she knew this guy was conservative. Even when the relationship was established, it was almost two months before they kissed.
How could he really kiss her now when they weren’t even close?
However, this undeniable, both strange yet familiar feeling was indeed the feeling of being kissed by Yu...
But where was his conservatism, his restraint, his maturity?
Kissing when no relationship was established, was this really not a dream?
