Chapter 637: Chapter 636: Don’t Be Afraid
"Oh? Is that so? Then we definitely can’t let her go; since she’s so capable, let’s give her a taste of our power and see exactly how strong she is. You don’t have to be afraid, don’t we still have two super-skilled masters? Even if she’s a lone wolf, we can tear her to shreds. Don’t you think?"
"Mmm."
...
The next morning, after Ye Xiaoqian got out of bed and saw the food on the table, her heart was filled with emotion.
Ye Xiaoqian knew how much her husband loved her,
He returned home for dinner every night,
and he always accompanied her for every meal,
Ye Xiaoqian was no fool and naturally understood why her husband was so good to her,
but Ye Xiaoqian pretended not to know,
She didn’t want to put pressure on her husband,
so Ye Xiaoqian chose silence.
However, this concealment of Ye Xiaoqian enraged Liu Zheng,
Liu Zheng knew his wife was not an ordinary person,
So, after Ye Xiaoqian had breakfast, Liu Zheng immediately came to Ye Xiaoqian’s house,
"Xiaoqian, I have something to tell you."
"Oh, okay."
When Ye Xiaoqian heard Liu Zheng call her name, she felt a surge of excitement,
but still, her face remained calm,
Ye Xiaoqian knew that Liu Zheng was testing her,
If she showed any signs of a problem because of this, Liu Zheng might very well drive her away,
so no matter what, she absolutely could not give herself away.
Seeing Ye Xiaoqian’s composure, Liu Zheng’s eyes narrowed.
"You saw the newspaper this morning, didn’t you? It says you seduced me. Do you think I would believe that? Do you think that’s fair to me? You don’t think you’re deceiving me, do you?"
When Liu Zheng spoke these words, he looked at Ye Xiaoqian with a dark expression,
"I didn’t!"
Ye Xiaoqian shook her head,
"I didn’t seduce you, I like you myself, but I know I’m not worthy of you, so I never sought your love. However, I just hope that you could help me, and take my company to the next level."
Hearing this, Liu Zheng laughed,
"Xiaoqian, do you know? I don’t like hearing these words. I hope we can be honest with each other, no matter what happens, we must support each other. That way, we can step into the hall of marriage together, understand?"
These words of Liu Zheng were very well-spoken,
Ye Xiaoqian was also very satisfied upon hearing them.
She felt that her husband was indeed a qualified business elite.
"Husband, thank you."
Ye Xiaoqian stood up, walked over to Liu Zheng,
"I’ll work hard."
"I believe in you, Xiaoqian, but if you really come across any trouble, don’t force yourself, alright? You know, it worries me greatly to see you like this."
"Mmm."
Hearing this, Ye Xiaoqian nodded.
...
After breakfast, Liu Zheng drove Ye Xiaoqian to the headquarters of Ye Corporation.
Liu Zheng parked the car and Ye Xiaoqian got out of the passenger seat,
then headed towards the CEO’s office.
As she approached the doorway, Ye Xiaoqian looked at Liu Zheng,
"You’ve come up so directly, what if someone sees you?"
"Haha, what’s there to be afraid of? We’re already divorced, after all."
"Divorced?"
Ye Xiaoqian’s lips curved into a bitter smile,
"Yes, we’re divorced, but I think, you’ll be coming back to me for a reconciliation very soon."
After saying this, Ye Xiaoqian reached out to push the door open,
Her complexion turned pale the moment she opened the door,
because inside the room were two men and two women,
and all of these individuals were bodyguards hired by Liu Zheng.
The bodyguards’ gazes were fixed on Ye Xiaoqian.
Ye Xiaoqian took a deep breath, knowing that she was not their match at the moment,
If she really fought with them, she would undoubtedly lose terribly.
With that thought, Ye Xiaoqian quickly turned and ran away.
When Ye Xiaoqian got to the elevator, she found that it hadn’t moved at all.
With no other choice, Ye Xiaoqian had to take the stairs.
...
When Ye Xiaoqian hurried downstairs, she found Liu Zheng with a group of people.
Seeing Ye Xiaoqian walk out of the elevator, Liu Zheng’s eyes flickered briefly.
Ye Xiaoqian bowed her head, pretending not to know Liu Zheng,
Ye Xiaoqian knew that this group must have been hired by Liu Zheng,
Therefore, she did not dare to make any rash moves.
"So this is the girlfriend you mentioned? She’s quite pretty!"
One of the men stepped forward and reached out to touch Ye Xiaoqian’s face.
Liu Zheng clenched his fists but did not intervene,
Ye Xiaoqian didn’t stop him either, after all, this man was paid for by him,
Liu Zheng was too embarrassed to say anything and could only stand by, swallowing his anger.
"Miss, our young master asks that you come upstairs with us."
"Okay, I’ll follow you."
With that, Ye Xiaoqian turned and walked towards the upper floors,
A smile appeared on Liu Zheng’s face; he knew he had won the bet.
Ye Xiaoqian followed the bodyguard into a suite,
The suite was decorated very luxuriously,
"Ye Xiaoqian, long time no see!"
A man’s voice rang out, and Ye Xiaoqian looked toward the sound,
A man in a black suit and sunglasses stood there.
"I don’t know you, I’m just a poor student. Please don’t recklessly claim to know strangers."
"Ye Xiaoqian, you’re playing hard to get, aren’t you? I know you still love me deep inside. Otherwise, why would you buy me a gift, right?"
"Sir, I don’t think we have anything to talk about."
"Don’t refuse, come with me, or I’ll take this picture and send it to your mother."
The man took out his phone and handed it to Ye Xiaoqian,
Panic showed on Ye Xiaoqian’s face.
Ye Xiaoqian knew that this man meant what he said; since he dared to use it to threaten her,
It wasn’t just to scare her,
So, Ye Xiaoqian became frightened, truly frightened.
"So, will you come with me?"
The man’s mouth curved into a mischievous smile.
Ye Xiaoqian took a deep breath,
"Fine, I agree to go with you."
...
In Liu Zheng’s office,
"Ye Xiaoqian, you finally came."
Liu Zheng spoke in an icy tone, but his face was adorned with a thick smile,
Seeing this expression on Liu Zheng, Ye Xiaoqian felt very sad.
Because, this smile signified that she was nothing more than meat in Liu Zheng’s eyes.
"Director Liu, did you need me for something?"
Ye Xiaoqian’s tone was very calm.
"Nothing much, just that you’re my girlfriend, so of course I should pick you up."
Liu Zheng spoke with a smile.
"Oh, then I’ll take my leave."
Having said that, Ye Xiaoqian intended to leave the place.
"Wait a second, Ye Xiaoqian."
Liu Zheng hurriedly called out to Ye Xiaoqian, and then threw a stack of documents in front of her.
"These are the things I had someone compose. I think you might need to look at them."
As he spoke, Liu Zheng sat down on the sofa,
Crossed his legs, and watched Ye Xiaoqian.
Ye Xiaoqian lowered her head, opened the folder, and started to carefully flip through,
All of them were data reports and some were about financial issues,
Ye Xiaoqian’s eyebrows furrowed slightly because she found that indeed there were problems with the data,
For example, a subsidiary of the Ye Corporation had been losing money due to insufficient profits. Moreover, the Ye Corporation’s accounts showed losses a year ago, and this was also the case with some of the other subsidiaries,
This made Ye Xiaoqian feel very strange,
"Liu Zheng, did you come up with these data?"
"Correct, you can assume these were unearthed by people I tasked. I know there are issues with these data, so I had someone investigate."
