Chapter 141: Chapter 0141 When Will You Repay the Money?_1
Yang Yueru sighed and said, “Tang Ning is having a huge fight with her father. She’s now sulking alone in her room, without even taking her smartphone, something she usually can’t live without.”
“What happened?” Ye Xiong asked.
“During the college entrance exam application, Xiao Ning’s first choice was Jiangnan University, and she got the offer letter from there already. Jianjun was furious when he found out because Xiao Ning’s score was high enough to get into Capital Normal University, which was the school he wanted her to apply for,” Yang Yueru explained.
“Actually, Jiangnan University isn’t too bad,” Ye Xiong said.
“But it’s a far cry from Capital Normal University, and besides, Jiangnan is so far from home, we worry about her,” Yang Yueru said.
“Why on earth did Tang Ning apply for Jiangnan University when Capital City is so great?” Ye Xiong asked weakly.
This new sister-in-law of mine couldn’t possibly have fallen for her brother-in-law and be attracted by my ‘bastard vibes,’ leading her to apply for Jiangnan University to start a forbidden romance with me!
Uh, that’s just evil thinking.
“She said she’s lived in Kyoto for eighteen years and doesn’t want to stay here anymore, even mentioning ‘the world is so big, I want to see more.’ What a bunch of sloppy thoughts!” Du Yuehua cursed.
“Staying in the same place for so long can indeed be boring,” Ye Xiong agreed.
“Where she goes to school is fine by me, but Xiao Ning is just a troublemaker; she can stir up trouble wherever she goes. Here, Jianjun can keep her in check, and we can clean up her messes, but there, who’ll help her out?”
“Isn’t that what I’m here for? If the sky falls, I’ll be there to hold it up,” Ye Xiong patted his chest.
“I was waiting for you to say that. It’s decided then. If there’s a problem, I’m coming to you!” Yang Yueru laughed.
Only then did Ye Xiong realize that the little devil of a sister-in-law had set him a trap he had confidently walked right into. Great, now he was the big shot, and when Tang Ning arrived with her troublemaking nature, he was going to have his hands full.
Wait a minute.
Ye Xiong thought of a very serious problem.
He was divorced from Yang Xinyi now. If Tang Ning came over here to study, she would definitely stay at Yang Xinyi’s place. Wouldn’t that blow his cover?
“Don’t worry, Xinyi and I will take good care of her,” Ye Xiong could only continue playing the big shot.
“When you have time, make a trip to Jiangnan University. Get to know the situation there and report back to me. I still have to persuade Jianjun. This father and daughter are still in a cold war, one skipping dinner and the other locking herself up in her room. It’s heartbreaking.”
Having said that, Yang Yueru hung up the phone.
Ye Xiong started his car and decided to stay at a hotel near Jiangnan University for the night. The next day, he would visit the campus to gather information for his little aunt’s report.
Fate is like a spinning compass; you never know where the needle will point.
Just when he thought he was gradually distancing himself from Yang Xinyi, first came last night’s accident, and now Tang Ning was thrown into the mix. He had no idea what to do.
He could only take one step at a time.
At night, outside the gates of Huadu University.
Students with heavy makeup and revealing clothes teetered on high heels, swaying their hips ostentatiously as they approached one luxury car after another, calling out for their ‘daddies,’ then drove off to hotels to continue what they started.
Ye Xiong parked his car at the entrance, hoping to wait for a pretty student for a romantic rendezvous.
After a long wait, not only did no beautiful girls show up, but there wasn’t even an ugly one in sight.
Looking at the junk car he drove, worth less than a hundred thousand yuan, Ye Xiong accepted his fate.
He slightly regretted divorcing Yang Xinyi, as he would no longer be able to drive her car and show off.
Just as he was about to leave for the hotel, a familiar figure walked out from the university gates.
Yang Xiaoqiao emerged in simple clothes.
Her walking posture was exceptionally standard, none of the common flaws that most women had.
No bowed head, slouched back, swinging shoulders, overly expressive hands, steps too small or too big—she had none of these issues. Every move she made was meticulously standard as if professionally trained.
Ignoring her devilish figure and stunning facial features, her walking posture alone made her stand out amongst numerous girls, making people notice her at a glance in a crowd of flowers.
Ye Xiong had high standards when it came to women; even when he first saw Yang Xinyi and Du Yuehua, he didn’t feel the same captivation as the first glance at Yang Xiaoqiao.
After she exited the school, several luxury cars parked at the gate opened their doors simultaneously. Four to five men of varying ages, styles, and appearances rushed towards her.
“Xiao Qiao, I’ve booked a western restaurant, it’s authentic French cuisine, let’s go and eat together,” said a rich second-generation with a slicked face.
“What’s the big deal about French food? Xiao Qiao, I know you like Japanese cuisine. There’s a new place on Mo River Road, and I’ve finally managed to book a spot,” said a successful man in a suit with glasses.
“Both of you are wasting your effort; Xiao Qiao is not going to get into your car,” said a short and fat man who wore a gold chain as thick as a thumb around his neck and a gold watch worth hundreds of thousands. Hands on his hips and bursting with arrogance, he announced, “Yang Xiaoqiao, my new gold shop is opening tonight, and there will be lots of the latest bracelets and accessories. You can pick whatever you like there.”
“Xiao Qiao, I…”
A group of men were all trying to outdo each other.
The students coming out of the university were used to such scenes.
It would indeed be strange if one day Yang Xiaoqiao wasn’t being fought over by a bunch of men.
Ye Xiong was witnessing Yang Xiaoqiao’s allure for the first time, thinking to himself if she had been a pile of manure in a previous life to attract so many flies circling her.
His eyes shifted and a hint of a smile appeared on his lips. He got out of the car and walked towards the besieged Yang Xiaoqiao.
After tossing aside two men who were blocking his path, he clapped his hands and smiled, “Yang Xiaoqiao, so it really is you!”
Yang Xiaoqiao stopped and her gaze fell upon Ye Xiong’s face. She recognized him instantly, a look of surprise flashing in her eyes.
Yang Xiaoqiao had quite an impression of Ye Xiong.
First, he flirted with her at the noodle shop like some small-time thug; then at the bar, he was like a rich second-generation who casually borrowed tens of thousands from her. The third time was at the foot of Tiandu Mountain where he helped her brother, and he even scolded her, saying her virginity wasn’t worth five hundred thousand, which really made her angry at the time.
To her, this guy gave her a different impression every time, like a chameleon.
Now that he was here again, what did he want?
“What, you don’t recognize me anymore?” Ye Xiong’s mouth curled into a mischievous smile. “Don’t think that by pretending not to know me, you can get away with not repaying the twenty thousand you owe me.”
This statement stirred up waves of reaction.
