Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her
Chapter 27

Chapter 27: Chapter 27

Her tone was laced with a clear threat. The driver and the bodyguards couldn’t believe their eyes as they looked at her. They hadn’t expected her, after causing such a disaster, to still be so defiant.

Ye Shilong had not expected that she would secretly investigate him. At that moment, upon hearing her mention that person, his breathing became instantly unsteady.

He held back his anger and gritted his teeth, "Since you are so unwilling to marry Young Master Qin, why did you agree to it three days ago?"

Ye Yuning’s smile deepened at the corners of her mouth. "If I hadn’t agreed, I suppose I would already be at the Qin Family by now, right?"

Talking about what happened three days ago...?

Three days earlier, Zheng Cai must have already pocketed those three hundred million, or rather, perhaps even more than that!

How could Ye Yuning not know how greedy they were after all these years?

Asking her to return those three hundred million and all the benefits was simply impossible.

So if she had refused that day, those people would definitely have come up with some disgusting scheme to get her into the Qin Family.

Ye Shilong saw the piercing clarity in her reasoning.

His breath grew even rougher, and he spat out, "But you couldn’t have dealt with it like this. Now both the Qin Family and the Ye Family have become the laughingstock of Upper City. How do you suggest we settle this?!"

Ye Yuning raised her voice, "Since you all intended to be ruthless from the beginning, don’t blame me for being unrighteous now. What do you think, Mr. Ye?"

The words ’Mr. Ye’ were bitten off sharply by Ye Yuning, marking a constant delineation between her and them.

Ye Shilong naturally picked up on this.

After a long pause, he contained all his rage and said through clenched teeth, "I’ll have them leave immediately."

Ye Yuning gave a light laugh. "Then I thank Mr. Ye kindly for his magnanimity."

That tone, at this moment, was nothing short of ironic.

Ye Shilong did not want to talk to her anymore and immediately hung up the phone. Soon after, the driver’s phone rang.

The driver answered and heard only a couple of sentences on the other end before the call was disconnected!

He then turned to the two bodyguards following him and said, "Let’s go!"

After looking at Ye Yuning, they left without a word, not even bothering with a farewell.

They had arrived with great bluster, only to leave reluctantly!

As soon as they left, Chen Wei came in.

Seeing Ye Yuning unscathed, she too breathed a sigh of relief. "Are you alright?"

Ye Yuning shook her head. "What could possibly be wrong with me? The ones with problems are those people."

Now the Qin Family’s troubles would certainly not be easily overlooked by the Ye Family.

After all this maneuvering, those involved with her, the principal party, now had no direct connection!

Therefore, at this moment, she was not worried about the Qin Family at all.

Seeing her speak so assuredly, Chen Wei also nodded in relief. "Alright then. Those people came looking for you this morning, but I forgot to tell you because I was busy with Xiao’s company matters."

The mention of Xiao’s company did not improve Ye Yuning’s mood.

This troublesome partnership was such a headache!

「...」

At this very moment, Xiao Linye was in a meeting at Xiao Corporation, discussing the partnership that had been specifically pointed out.

They already had contingency plans on their side—if the new re-selection failed, all previous partnerships would need to be scrapped.

A few new faces had appeared in the conference room, replacing those who hadn’t been switched out in time.

Walking out of the conference room, Lai Shuo followed hurriedly behind him, just in time to hear Xiao Linye say, "Let’s replace the entire assistant department too."

Xiao Linye had previously thought it unnecessary to make changes in the assistant department, since they did not wield much power and were familiar with the company’s procedures.

Now, Xiao Linye had changed his mind!

Lai Shuo gave a solemn nod. "Yes, I have already notified the HR department."

He knew Xiao Linye’s temperament well. After the incident with Yang Huan in the office today, Xiao Linye wouldn’t tolerate such a security loophole.

Glancing at his watch, it was nearly six o’clock.

Xiao Linye asked, "What’s next on the agenda?"

Lai Shuo replied, "There’s a small departmental meeting, with the Finance Department."

"Have them come over here!"

"Alright," Lai Shuo nodded.

No sooner had he entered the office and closed the door than he heard Xiao Linye say, "Go to the supermarket and buy some groceries; put them in the trunk of the Passat. Remember to buy more rice and noodles!"

Lai Shuo’s lips involuntarily twitched. "Rice and noodles? Are you and your wife planning to cook for yourselves?"

No, when had he started driving the company’s car?

Xiao Linye, annoyed, tugged at his tie and then ignored him again!

Lai Shuo felt a wave of exasperation, sensing that he had stumbled upon some astounding new discovery.

Curious as he was, his boss gave him no chance to inquire further. He could only nod resignedly. "I’ll go buy them right away!"

This man was as tight-lipped as anything.

He couldn’t get any useful information whatsoever.

After arranging everything, Lai Shuo returned, and Xiao Linye asked him, "How did that wedding today end up?"

Caught off-guard by the question, Lai Shuo was momentarily stunned!

Once he realized Xiao Linye might be concerned about the third young master, he responded, "The bride never showed up. Just now, a report came out saying that Young Master Qin has also fled abroad to avoid the marriage. It’s not clear whether this is true or just the Qin Family saving face."

Being jilted and jilting someone are two very different things, after all.

But to say that Young Master Qin of the Qin Family had fled his own wedding—doesn’t that seem inconsistent with the actions of a simpleton?

A fool would probably not even understand the concept of marriage, let alone flee from it.
