Chapter 333: Chapter 333 Are You Cheap or Not?

Ye Zhimeng found herself in a predicament and wanted to snatch Zhou Yu’s phone.

But Zhou Yu maliciously flipped through the contacts and even purposely showed her.

Ye Zhimeng’s face flushed with urgency, "What exactly do you want from me? I’m already in such a terrible state, yet you add insult to injury. Are you trying to drive me to death? Qiao Xi, tell him not to make the call! Isn’t my apology enough?"

How could she even apologize so self-righteously?

Qiao Xi simply wouldn’t indulge her.

She said coldly, "Zhou Yu, make the call. I believe Mrs. Ye is a reasonable person and will handle her adopted daughter’s misdeeds properly when she finds out."

Her impression of Mrs. Ye was still okay.

The woman was clear about gratitude and grudges.

She had heard from Shu Xue before that Ye Zhimeng’s father had apparently died trying to save Mrs. Ye’s husband, which was why the family had taken in this orphan girl.

But by that time, Ye Zhimeng was already of age and her nature was hard to change. The Ye Family, fearing public criticism about mistreating an orphan, had always pampered her.

It was only after Ye Zhimeng had caused one disaster after another and had embarrassed herself by following behind Xu Xingluo that they reluctantly sent her abroad.

"Don’t call! You malicious woman, you just want me to be thrown out of the Ye Family, don’t you? Since you came to Haicheng, you have already caused the death of Xu Xingluo, are you planning to drive us socialites to our deaths too?"

Ye Zhimeng, her face flushed, accused vehemently.

"Sister Mingzhu is right! You are nothing but a jinx, causing the death of Xu Xingluo and Xiang Huai, and now you try to seduce Xu Xiuyuan through your position, flirting ambiguously with many men!"

Sister Mingzhu?

Qiao Xi caught the key point, they were talking about Xiang Mingzhu.

Ye Zhimeng was just a highly damaging scapegoat, the real troublemaker was Xiang Mingzhu.

Qiao Xi scoffed, "Are all socialites like you, harming others and yourselves? Don’t tar everyone with the same brush. Zhou Yu, make the call!"

"You..."

Zhou Yu, smiling, said, "Alright, sister-in-law."

Ye Zhimeng tried to act, but was restrained by the security of the club.

Zhou Yu made the call.

He exaggeratedly said into the phone, "Is this the Ye residence? I am a subordinate of President Huo. Please tell Mrs. Ye that Ye Zhimeng tried to hit our Young Madam Huo! Our Young Madam is a frail and introverted lady, naturally frightened by such commotion. Previously at the auction, she deliberately targeted, and even made a scene at the hospital, claiming the Young Madam was flirting with Xu Xiuyuan."

"What an oddity the Ye Family has raised!"

Zhou Yu fueled the fire, blushing it bright red.

Ye Zhimeng, like a monkey, bounced around, "Don’t listen to his nonsense! I didn’t!"

"Zhou Yu, hang up the phone!"

"Don’t call anymore!"

Zhou Yu, lifting his phone, said, "Too late, Miss Ye."

Ye Zhimeng, feeling uneasy, looked at Qiao Xi and said defiantly, "Qiao Xi, just you wait! I won’t let you off easily!"

Qiao Xi looked at her and chuckled softly, "Wait and see means you’re letting this go, not losing face here. You’re just finding a way to console yourself, which I fully understand. Ye Zhimeng, there won’t be a next time."

She was just Xiang Mingzhu’s lapdog, sent out to draw hatred as cannon fodder.

Qiao Xi’s eyes flickered with a faint coldness, Xiang Mingzhu must be seeking vengeance for Xiang Huai, and it might also be the Lu Family’s intention to target her deliberately.

She understood, this initial selection at Haicheng’s Trial of Needles wouldn’t be simple!

"You..."

Ye Zhimeng, having lost face, ran off!

Watching her retreat, Shu Xue sneered, "Running away just like that? She doesn’t have any impact at all. I guess the Ye Family won’t let her off easily this time, the young lady might be sent abroad again."

The club manager, observing the spilled drinks on the floor, wore a troubled expression.

What even is this mess.

They dared not ask Ye Zhimeng for compensation, as everyone in Haicheng knew that Miss Ye did things according to her whims, utterly unscrupulous.

They could only accept their bad luck.

Qiao Xi walked up to him and said, "List all the smashed bottles of wine and the damaged club facilities and send the list to the Ye Family, stating that it’s the Huo Family’s intention for the Ye Family to compensate for all the losses."

The manager stammered as he looked at her, "Young Madam Huo, thank you so much!"

With the Huo Family stepping in, they indeed had a backup!

"Thank you! You are really a good person!"

Qiao Xi said softly, "It would be even better if the bathhouse’s screen could be fixed; sometimes it accidentally falls on people."

The manager quickly responded, "Okay! I’ll arrange for someone to reinforce it right away! Thank you so much this time." He turned his head to Huo Xingzhou and said, "President Huo, your wife’s elegance is not less than yours!"

Huo Xingzhou’s lips curled into a slight smile, "She has always been remarkable."

Qiao Xi blushed at his compliment.

Shu Xue and Zhou Yu both had a mouthful of dog food, exchanging glances that showed even more contempt for each other!

Shu Xue spoke first, "Qiao Xi, I’m going home now. Qin Yuan will pick me up; he’s already on his way."

"Oh, okay."

Qiao Xi’s gaze incidentally wandered to Zhou Yu, noticing his face did not look very good. Although he was smiling playfully, the smile did not reach his eyes, clearly showing his unhappiness.

She tugged at Huo Xingzhou’s sleeve and said, "Let’s go home too, Mr. Zhou, will you come with us?"

Zhou Yu leaned casually and spoke, "I have plans tonight, you go ahead. As a single dog, my nightlife is very exciting."

Qiao Xi’s eyes smiled, "Then we’ll be going."

She and Huo Xingzhou hugged and left together.

...

Only Zhou Yu and Shu Xue were left at the entrance of the club.

Shu Xue received a phone call; it was from Qin Yuan.

She ended the call and walked forward, deciding to wait for Qin Yuan at a conspicuous bus stop. The club occupied a large area, and there were rarely people taking the bus nearby.

Shu Xue walked forward, and Zhou Yu followed her.

She frowned deeply and turned to look at the man, asking, "Why are you following me?"

Zhou Yu quirked his lip, "As an old flame, can’t you ask your new love to give me a ride?"

Shu Xue was shocked by his shamelessness, "Mr. Zhou, with such a rich nightlife, you shouldn’t need to hang out with us boring people. Where are Xiaomei and Aru?"

Zhou Yu looked at her and said, "They’ve both found new partners."

Shu Xue was speechless, "Well, I’ve found a new partner too, so stop bothering me."

"I’m just screening your new partner for you."

Shu Xue rolled her eyes, looking at the handsome mixed-race man in front of her, "Are you this caring with every ex-girlfriend? Just go, don’t stay with me."

Zhou Yu, rebellious to the core, moved closer to her, "Are you afraid your new partner will misunderstand? I just have to stick close to you."

He stretched out his hand and wrapped it around her waist, pulling her very close to him.

It seemed he could kiss her face just by lowering his head.

Shu Xue took a deep breath, looking exhausted, "Zhou Yu, what’s the point of this? It was you who said you didn’t want to get married, so don’t stop me from getting married!"

Zhou Yu looked at her seriously, "Is it that if I say let’s get married, you would..."

Shu Xue looked at his handsome, mischievous face, feeling a surge of anger, "Stop joking with me. Zhou Yu, are you being cheap here?"

"Shu Xue, do you dare say your heart hasn’t wavered?"

He embraced her strongly, his cool lips pressing fiercely on her red lips.

Beep beep!

The horn of a car sounded.

The glaring headlights startled the kissing couple; they turned to look.

Not far away, Qin Yuan coldly watched them from inside the driver’s cabin.
