Chapter 38: Chapter 37: Wife-Doting Maniac Goes Online [3]
"Ruoruo, pinch me. Am I still dreaming?"
Luo Yue looked at Ning Ruoxi, her eyes a little dazed, and spoke.
Hearing this, Ning Ruoxi reached out and gave the girl’s cheek a hard pinch. The pain almost made Luo Yue jump to her feet.
Good lord, at that moment, Luo Yue was well and truly awake!
"Owowow, be gentle!"
Luo Yue rubbed her face, her expression full of grievance. Then, she glanced at the tablet again and couldn’t help but suck in a sharp breath. "This is all fucking real. Big Bro Ye Ling is too damn fierce. He’d defy the heavens for a woman!"
"What nonsense are you spouting!"
Ning Ruoxi couldn’t help but roll her eyes at her.
But for once, Luo Yue became uncharacteristically serious. "Ruoruo, don’t you think Ye Ling did all of this for you? Yu Chenghao and Li Xin... it’s all related to you!"
"Er..."
Ning Ruoxi was also taken aback for a moment and nodded subconsciously.
’It really does seem that way.’
"Tsk tsk. Looks like being your suitor, Ruoruo, comes with the risk of total financial ruin. I never would have guessed it, but Ye Ling is actually a ’wife-protecting demon’!"
Luo Yue said, cupping her cheeks, her eyes sparkling like little stars.
WAHHH!
She suddenly felt that Ye Ling had the potential to become one of those overbearing CEOs from a novel!
The kind who calls in a dozen helicopters at the slightest disagreement!
"Then why don’t you consider Ye Ling, too?"
Ning Ruoxi said, giving Luo Yue an amused look.
Luo Yue pouted. "Forget it. I’m not interested in men. I’m only interested in you."
With that, Luo Yue flashed a wicked grin and pounced on Ning Ruoxi. "You stinky Ruoruo, waking me up so early in the morning! Now I’ll show you what a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey feels like!"
Luo Yue pinned Ning Ruoxi down, her demonic claws launching a swift attack that made Ning Ruoxi’s delicate body tremble uncontrollably.
’This damn girl is actually tickling me!’
Ning Ruoxi flipped over, instantly subduing the little minx and giving her bottom a few firm smacks.
The current Ning Ruoxi had received a physique enhancement. Even though it was only one-tenth of Ye Ling’s, it had still doubled her strength. How could Luo Yue possibly be her match?
"Are you going to keep fooling around?"
Ning Ruoxi glared at the girl and snorted.
Luo Yue immediately begged for mercy, her little face filled with grievance. "Wahh, I give up, I give up. Ruoruo, how did you get so strong?"
"Nyah nyah nyah, I’m not telling you."
Ning Ruoxi stuck out her tongue, looking exceptionally playful and cute. After a moment of thought, she said, "But speaking of which, I need to go ask Ye Ling about this."
’Shengding Group basically belongs to Ye Ling now, so this incident must be related to him!’
With that thought, Ning Ruoxi pulled Luo Yue and went up to the second floor.
At this moment, Ye Ling was sitting on the balcony with a cup of coffee, enjoying the beautiful riverscape of Modu. freewebnøvel.com
"You’re awake?"
Ye Ling had, of course, noticed their arrival and smiled faintly.
Ning Ruoxi wrinkled her elegant nose and came before Ye Ling. "Stinky, fess up. Did you do this to the Yu Group?"
"I did."
Ye Ling smiled slightly and shrugged. "And by my estimate, Yu Tiancheng will be coming to see me very soon."
"How do you know?"
Luo Yue, who was standing to the side, couldn’t help but lean in and ask curiously.
"How about we make a bet?"
Ye Ling looked at the young woman, a sly, fox-like smile playing on his lips.
"No bet."
Luo Yue immediately shook her little head like a rattle.
’For some reason, my brain is actually working right now~’
Seeing this, Ye Ling just smiled. "It’s nothing, really. I found some leverage on the Yu Group, pulled a few strings, and that’s that."
"You’ve worked hard."
Ning Ruoxi came up behind Ye Ling and gently massaged his shoulders.
’Whether it was easy or not, Ye Ling still did all this for me.’
"Owow, you guys are feeding Yueyue dog food again!"
Seeing this, Luo Yue let out a strange cry and quickly covered her eyes.
At the sight, Ning Ruoxi and Ye Ling couldn’t help but look at each other and smile.
Ye Ling reached out, gently pulled Ning Ruoxi in front of him, and lightly wrapped his arms around her waist. "From now on, no one can bully you, you hear?"
"Mm."
Ning Ruoxi nodded, then, her face slightly flushed, she wriggled out of Ye Ling’s embrace. "Yueyue is still here, stop messing around~"
"So it’s fine as long as she’s not here?"
Ye Ling immediately teased.
"You stinker, dream on! It’s not okay even if no one’s here!"
Ning Ruoxi shot Ye Ling a glare, then, her face bright red, she pulled Luo Yue away and ran off.
"That little minx."
Ye Ling shook his head helplessly. He glanced at his phone, which showed more than ten missed calls.
Just then, another call came in.
"Hello?"
Ye Ling answered it this time, a slight smile on his lips. "Who is this?"
’Who the fuck is this?’ on the other end of the line, Yu Chenghao was furious.
’Can’t you guess?’
’You hung up on me more than ten times in a row!?’
However, considering the current situation, Yu Chenghao suppressed his anger and tried his best to make his voice sound calm. "Young Master Ye, this is Yu Chenghao."
"Oh..."
Ye Ling deliberately dragged out the sound. "So it’s Young Master Yu. What gives you the time to call me now?"
"Young Master Ye, it’s about Shengding Group’s acquisition of the Yu Group. My father would like to speak with you."
Yu Chenghao said in a low voice.
’I really fucking don’t want to talk to Ye Ling. This guy drives the Yu Group into the ground, and he’s still fucking playing dumb.’ fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
"Oh, so it’s about that. I don’t think there’s anything to talk about."
Ye Ling said with a cold smile, "The moment you had Li Yuan bring people to make a move on me, you should have considered this outcome."
"This..."
Yu Chenghao was at a loss for words.
’It was true. The direct cause for all of this was them. If they hadn’t pushed Ye Ling into a corner, he probably couldn’t have been bothered to target them.’
"Tell your father this: I’m taking the Yu Group. Nothing he says will make a difference."
After saying his piece, Ye Ling hung up the phone directly.
’Are you kidding me? You fucking call me and think you can just see me because you want to?’
’You talk a good game, saying you want to "discuss things," but it’s nothing more than wanting me to let you off the hook...’
’But why should I?’
’If I didn’t have a few tricks up my sleeve, I’d probably be half-dead, if not worse, by now.’
’After all, the people who came after me that day were desperados.’
He could never forgive people who had nearly cost him his life.
He was no saint!
Besides, Yu Chenghao was still after his Ruoruo!
Other things were negotiable, but when it came to Ning Ruoxi... well, tough luck.
Ye Ling would admit that, as a person, he was decent enough about most things, but he did have one bad habit: he was fiercely protective of his own.
The "wife-doting demon" is confirmed!
