Chapter 1713: Bigger Misunderstanding
” Ah? I thought that you caught Yang Ming and brought him in front of Yuxi because she kept talking about him.” Shen Daqi suddenly realized, “Does that mean you requested to come here yourself, brat?”
Shen Daqi turned his head towards Yang Ming and asked loudly.
“I did…” Yang Ming nodded his head stupefied and glanced at Shen Yuxi, baffled. Shen Yuxi likes me? It seems like she constantly mentions me at home, which caused this misunderstanding to occur.
“Alright, then you tell me. Do you want my Yuxi or not?” Shen Daqi asked Yang Ming.
“I…” Yang Ming didn’t know whether to cry or laugh after he heard Shen Daqi’s words. Who sells their daughter like this? Although Shen Yuxi’s legs are crippled now, she is still very pretty. It’s impossible for her to not get married to someone, right?
“Dad, are you done?” Shen Yuxi couldn’t hold it in anymore after she heard her father blabbering about strange things non-stop. “Dad, what nonsense are you spouting? Yang Ming is the chairman of the Ming Yang Group, which our Nightless Club Hotel is under! He is not my boyfriend!”
“Ah?” Shen Daqi suddenly froze, and looked at Shen Yuxi in shock, “Yuxi, what did you say? You said that… Yang Ming isn’t your boyfriend?”
“He wasn’t even my boyfriend to begin with!” Shen Yuxi blushed while she shook her head.
“He is your group’s chairman?” Shen Daqi looked at Yang Ming awkwardly.
“Yeah, he is the chairman of our group!” Shen Yuxi nodded.
“That means …He’s not your boyfriend?” Shen Daqi scratched his head in confusion.
“Of course not!” Shen Yuxi bit her lips and lowered her head while blus.h.i.+ng. The things that happened today are a little too shameful. After what dad did, how am I going to face Yang Ming in the future?
Shen Daqi slapped his head, and he changed the way he called Yang Ming, “This… Chairman Yang… I’m sorry, I mixed things up. I thought you were Yuxi’s boyfriend, so I showed you a poor att.i.tude. I’m really sorry…”
“It’s ok…” Yang Ming smiled bitterly, “It’s good that everything is clear now. I thought that I had offended you…”
Yang Ming could really not have any hate towards such an honest middle-aged man. When Yang Ming saw him, it was as if he was looking at his father. Because of this, Yang Ming did not get angry; he only felt a little helpless.
” Ai, don’t mention it!” Shen Daqi smiled bitterly as well, “It’s all this little brat’s fault. She kept on mentioning your name, and it was always filled with feelings. I thought that you were her boyfriend…”
“Dad! If you keep on talking, I… I… I won’t bother with you anymore!” Shen Yuxi was really anxious now. If Yang Ming had asked about what had happened before, she could have just covered it up and muddled through. Now that her father had spoken every single detail, she wouldn’t be able to face Yang Ming.
“Okay, I won’t say anymore. I won’t say anymore., Shen Daqi was frightened and immediately shut his mouth.
Yang Ming felt that Shen Yuxi’s maiden att.i.tude was a little hilarious. However, he couldn’t laugh, and he felt a deep weight in his heart. Yang Ming was a little worried as he knew about Shen Yuxi’s troubles. If it was on normal occasions, then it would be nothing at all. However, under such circ.u.mstances, his unintentional words might hurt Shen Yuxi’s weak mind.
Because of this, Yang Ming was a little troubled. He was just frozen there without knowing what to say.
“Yang Ming… Chairman Yang, you don’t have to listen to my father’s blabberings…” Shen Yuxi twitched her body and immediately explained when she saw the frozen Yang Ming, “It was because you saved me last time, and I was really grateful for it. So I just mentioned you a little more… And my father misunderstood…”
“Just call me Yang Ming. It feels weird if you call me Chairman Yang.” Yang Ming waved his hand and smiled bitterly.
“Then… Alright.” Shen Yuxi didn’t know why she addressed Yang Ming by his name before this. The age gap between her and Yang Ming was small. She was not accustomed to treating Yang Ming as her higher-up.
“It’s fine,” Yang Ming said. “It was just a misunderstanding, and it has already been resolved. You don’t have to worry about it.”
“En …” Shen Yuxi nodded, “Then… Will you still come over?”
“Naturally, I will come and give the books to you after I find them,” Yang Ming nodded.
“En,” Shen Yuxi nodded again.
“I’ll take my leave first?” Yang Ming asked.
“En,” Shen Yuxi nodded again.
“Uncle Shen, Bao Sanli and I will leave first. If you encounter any problem, just give Baozi a call,” Yang Ming told Shen Daqi.
“Alright, Chairman Yang. I am really sorry about what happened before!” Shen Daqi still felt sorry when facing Yang Ming.
Shen Daqi immediately understood everything that had happened after he knew about Yang Ming’s ident.i.ty. My daughter must have a crush on Yang Ming. I even gave Yang Ming a scolding just now. Shen Daqi felt really sorry for it.
“It’s nothing.” Yang Ming waved his hand, “Like I said, it was a misunderstanding.”
Yang Ming waved his hand at Shen Yuxi after glancing at her. Shen Yuxi happily waved back at Yang Ming when she saw that Yang Ming did not pry into the matter just now. After that, Yang Ming left the Shen Family home together with Bao Sanli.
Since Shen Yuxi could not stand up, Shen Daqi sent Yang Ming and Bao Sanli off at the stairway.
“Uncle Shen, you should go back,” said Yang Ming.
“Come here and play if you have the time!” Shen Daqi said enthusiastically. There were no signs of his previous coldness.
After they left the corridor, Yang Ming let out a sigh of relief.
“You knew about it from the beginning?” Yang Ming asked while looking at Bao Sanli.
“Brother Yang… I’m sorry.” Bao Sanli was frightened and immediately apologized.
“Who asked you to apologize?” Yang Ming frowned, “I asked you if you knew about it beforehand.”
“I knew a little…” Bao Sanli nodded, “Before this, when Yuxi was working at the Nightless Club Hotel, there was a rumor that she was your lover. I promoted her to a leader because of it.”
“Jing Xiaolu, Shen Yuxi…” Yang Ming stared at Bao Sanli, “You are so diligent. It wasn’t even official, and yet you were already one step ahead and made preparations.”
“Yang Ming… I’m sorry,” Bao Sanli was shocked, and said carefully.
“I said it already. I didn’t ask you to apologize.” Yang Ming waved his hand. “There’s nothing to criticize about your methods. It’s just that, since when did Shen Yuxi have feelings for me? Why didn’t I know about it?”
“Maybe it was during the time you saved her in the room?” Bao Sanli reminded him.
Yang Ming thought about it and felt that it was the only possibility. He nodded his head, “Is there still hope for her legs to recover?”
“This… I can’t say for sure…” Bao Sanli hesitated for a moment and said, “We visited many Chinese doctors, but to no avail. However, a few of them were scammers. They kept on recommending me to buy some medicines and vitamins, which made me so angry that I destroyed their signboard. As for the few others, their effects weren’t that great. If they aren’t scammers, then they should be some bad doctors.”
Yang Ming laughed hysterically after he heard Bao Sanli’s words. “Why are you still so reckless? This kind of sickness is really hard to cure.”
“I will try my best to contact more doctors.” Bao Sanli smiled embarra.s.sedly.
“Give me a call the next time you come and visit Shen Yuxi.” Yang Ming had no feelings for Shen Yuxi. He just felt that she was a little cute. Yang Ming said those words because he wanted to let Shen Yuxi keep a positive att.i.tude which would allow her to face every day happily. With this, her chances of recovery would increase.
In many circ.u.mstances, such a sickness that is hard to cure often requires the willpower of the patients to overcome it.
“Noted,” Bao Sanli nodded.
Yang Ming’s heart slowly calmed down after he went into the car. The matter between him and Shen Yuxi was giving him a headache. He didn’t know how to settle it. When facing such a girl, Yang Ming could not bring himself to directly reject her.
However, Yang Ming would never have thought that the Dade Elegant Taxi Company currently had a shocking scene unfolding.
“Zhang Yuliang, hit me again,” Zhang Laibao ordered Zhang Yuliang.
“Ah?” Zhang Yuliang was shocked, and didn’t know what Zhang Laibao meant, “Fourth Master, what are you talking about?”
“I asked you to hit me again. Didn’t you hear it?” Zhang Laibao said.
“Hit you? Why should I hit you?” Zhang Yuliang was shocked. “Fourth Master, Brother Yang has already left… Why are you still trying to deceive him by torturing yourself?”
“Just hit me when I ask you to. Why are you spouting so much nonsense?”Zhang Laibao was displeased when he saw Zhang Yuliang being so wordy.
“Alright then… I’ll hit you. You’re the one that asked me to hit you!” Zhang Yuliang said helplessly.
“Hurry up, stop procrastinating!” Zhang Laibao frowned.
“Pak…” Zhang Yuliang slapped Zhang Laibao’s face.
Chapter 1714: Addicted To Being Beaten
“Ah-” Zhang Laibao gave out a weird scream.
“Fourth master, what’s the matter?” Zhang Yuliang asked anxiously.
“You hit me too softly. Use more strength. Didn’t you eat anything?” Zhang Laibao touched the part that was slapped by Zhang Yuliang, “Use more force!”
“Ah?” Zhang Yuliang didn’t dare to use too much force. I can’t withhold any force? Zhang Yuliang had no choice but to extend his hand again, and slap Zhang Laibao with a loud “pak” sound. This time, he did not hold back, and used all his force to hit Zhang Laibao’s face.
“Ouch-!” Zhang Laibao cried out.
“Fourth Master, are you okay? I… This… You were the one that asked me to use force?” Zhang Yuliang asked carefully with a bitter face.
“That’s satisfying!” However, Zhang Laibao spouted out these words and smiled satisfyingly. “Of course I was the one that asked you to use more force! Not bad, let’s do it again!”
” Ah? Again?” Zhang Yuliang really didn’t know what to say. Is Fourth Master okay? Why is he asking me to slap him even after Yang Ming left?
“Nonsense. Hurry up,” said Zhang Laibao.
“Oh…” Zhang Yuliang raised his arm, and slapped Zhang Laibao’s face again. Zhang Laibao’s nose started to bleed.
“Satisfying! Really satisfying!” Zhang Laibao shouted.
Zhang Yuliang suddenly felt a chill down his spine. Does Fourth Master have a m.a.s.o.c.h.i.s.tic fetish? Why does he enjoy being beaten?
Zhang Yuliang had guessed it right. Before this, Zhang Laibao’s heart felt stressful. When he was facing Yang Ming, he only hoped that Zhang Yuliang would hit him as fiercely as possible. Only then would Yang Ming be able to forgive him.
Thanks to this, Zhang Laibao’s heart distorted under the pressure and antic.i.p.ation for Yang Ming to forgive him. He felt a satisfaction that was hard to describe when he was. .h.i.t. This was also why he asked Zhang Yuliang to continue hitting him.
“Why did you stop?” Zhang Laibao frowned. “Continue!”
“Ah…” Zhang Yuliang looked at Zhang Laibao’s face that was beaten up very badly, and sighed. He could only raise his arm again…
If Yang Ming knew how perverted Zhang Laibao had suddenly become, who knew what thoughts he would have.
“Brother Yang, where should we go now?” Bao Sanli asked.
“I invited Sun Jie to eat with me tonight. After I ask her about the location, you can just send me there,” Yang Ming said. “Little Jie has a car. I’ll just hitch a ride in her car at night.”
“Alright,” Bao Sanli answered. Bao Sanli was very clear about the relations.h.i.+p between Yang Ming and Sun Jie. He had no questions when he heard that Yang Ming was going to eat with Sun Jie.
Yang Ming looked at the time, and dialed Sun Jie’s phone.
“Sun Jie, where are you?” Yang Ming asked.
“Yang Ming? I’m still in cla.s.s,” Sun Jie said. “What’s wrong? What’s the matter?”
“So you’re still in cla.s.s. I thought you had nothing to do when I looked at the time.” Yang Ming apologized and said. “Didn’t we agree to eat together tonight? Where are you planning to go? Let me book a seat first.”
” En… Let me think. How about the Nightless Club or the International Restaurant? They’re both your territory after all,” said Sun Jie.
“That’s fine. Let’s go to the International Restaurant.” Yang Ming did not choose the Nightless Club because Sun Jie had been attacked there last time. Yang Ming was afraid that Sun Jie would feel traumatized and remember unhappy stuff.
Besides, Yang Ming had a villa on the top floor of the Song Jiang International Restaurant. They could just stay there after eating, and not bother about finding a place to stay for the night.
“Sure. Send me a text after you book the room,” said Sun Jie.
“Alright. Let’s contact each other through text later,” said Yang Ming.
After he hung up the phone, he told Bao Sanli, “Let’s go, go to the International Hotel. Help me to reserve a room.”
“Alright.” Bao Sanli nodded and started the car.
Zhao Ying was feeling very nervous throughout the whole afternoon. If not for Sun Jie’s persuasion, she would never invite Yang Ming out. However, since Sun Jie had encouraged her, Zhao Ying just accepted it while feeling confused.
When her brain had calmed down during the afternoon cla.s.ses, she started to feel like she was in a difficult position. What reason do I have to invite Yang Ming out?
Should I say that my friend wants to meet him? That’s so awkward! I’m not even a couple with him. What if Sun Jie asks some inappropriate questions?
Because of this thought, Zhao Ying started to feel more and more afraid. She could not concentrate during the afternoon cla.s.s at all. She was just playing with her phone. She did not know how to talk to Yang Ming.
However, Zhao Ying had already agreed to eat dinner together with Sun Jie. It wouldn’t be appropriate to regret her decision now.
” Ah, what should I do?” Zhao Ying could not decide. She had not been in contact with Yang Ming for a long time. It would be strange if she suddenly invited Yang Ming for dinner with the reason being that Sun Jie wanted to see him. If Sun Jie were to talk about something shameful, then how would she face Yang Ming in the future?
Today, Zhao Ying had turned into a bad student. She was daydreaming while she was in cla.s.s. She smiled bitterly when she remembered Yang Ming daydreaming about something when she was still a teacher.
Zhao Ying had never expected that she would also become a student who did not pay attention in cla.s.s one day.
Suddenly, she heard chaotic noises coming from the cla.s.s, and the students around her all stood up. Zhao Ying realized that cla.s.s was already over. However, she did not hear it.
“Zhao Ying, do you have free time tonight? Want to have a meal together?” Fan Jinzhe smiled while walking over to Zhao Ying’s side. He raised his arms and gave a welcoming gesture.
Fan Jinzhe had gone back to change his attire. After that, he found out about Zhao Ying’s timetable, and was purposely waiting at Zhao Ying’s cla.s.s door. After cla.s.s had ended, he walked into the cla.s.sroom.
He cleaned himself up, and dressed up in a suit he felt was stylish. This was to let Zhao Ying have a new impression of him.
He believed that as long as there was no Sun Jie troubling him at the side, he had a chance to capture Zhao Ying’s heart. Fan Jinzhe could tell that Zhao Ying was very pure, and was not good at scheming. As for the Sun Jie that was as smart as a fox, there was no chance of gaining an advantage over her.
” Ah? At night? I have no time. I invited someone else.” Zhao Ying was surprised when she saw Fan Jinzhe. When she heard what Fan Jinzhe said, she shook her head and rejected the offer.
” Oh? You invited someone? Who did you invite?” Fan Jinzhe was slightly disappointed. However, he still did not give up and asked.
“I invited Sun Jie to eat together,” said Zhao Ying.
” Oh, then there’s no problem. Let’s eat together,” Fan Jinzhe replied. Although he was a little reluctant when he heard that it was Sun Jie, he still wanted to interact more with Zhao Ying.
Zhao Ying frowned. She thought, Why is this guy so persistent? However, she was not the type of person who could express her feelings directly. She did not know how to reject Fan Jinzhe. She could only say, “Ask Sun Jie about it then.”
Fan Jinzhe was shocked for a moment. I never expected Zhao Ying to know how to push the question onto someone else. The reason why he found Zhao Ying and said these things was because he knew that Zhao Ying did not know how to express herself. If it was Sun Jie, then he would have no confidence at all. Wasn’t this afternoon bad enough?
Zhao Ying had matters in her heart, and was too lazy to care about Fan Jinzhe. She took her small bag and walked to the door of the cla.s.sroom. Fan Jinzhe immediately followed and shouted, “Zhao Ying, wait for me!”
Zhao Ying did not say anything. In her heart, she hated Fan Jinzhe deeply. Why does he have to cause trouble now? After exiting the teaching building, she saw Sun Jie waiting for her when she raised her head. Zhao Ying was happy, and fastened her steps.
“Little Jie!” Zhao Ying waved at her.
“Zhao Ying, why did your cla.s.s just end? Your lecturer really knows how to stall time,” Sun Jie complained when she saw Zhao Ying, and waved at her.
