Free Web NovelChapter 219: Chapter 219: Shameless to the Extreme _1
But she completely forgot how profound Ye Ming’s strength was, even genuine masters couldn’t defeat Ye Ming, let alone her, a frail woman.
Fortunately, Zhang Ruoyu appeared in time to stop her.
"Ruoxue, stop making a scene!"
She stood between Zhang Ruoxue and Ye Ming, separating the two, facing Ye Ming.
"Ye Ming, don’t misunderstand, we are not here to cause trouble but to resolve our differences with you!"
Zhang Ruoyu steadied her emotions and said, "Our conflict benefits neither of us, I just hope you can cancel that statement and hand over the formula for Spirit Spring Water to us!"
"I won’t let you suffer any loss; as long as you comply, our family will agree to give you ten billion and write off your previous issues, no longer holding them against you."
"Ten billion is nothing to our Zhang Family, but for an ordinary person like you, ten billion is enough to splurge for a lifetime. Moreover, the value of Spirit Spring Water is not something you can bear; in our hands, it can both help us and ensure the safety of Spirit Spring Water, keeping it from falling into the hands of other villains."
Zhang Ruoyu said these words with a sincere face, believing that she was bestowing a great favor upon Ye Ming.
Yet, after listening, Ye Ming couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.
He stated, "Miss Zhang, today I have truly come to understand the way your Zhang family conducts itself!"
"What you’ve said, in my view, is just nonsense. I would urge you to remember that shamelessness should have its limits!"
"My annulment declaration was made out of compulsion due to your shameless actions, and as for the money, you already owe me. Whether Zhang Ruoxue acknowledges it or not, the fact remains the same, it’s what you owe!"
"As for Spirit Spring Water, that is even more of a pipe dream; not to mention ten billion, even if it was a hundred billion, I wouldn’t hand it over to you!"
"Now, right this instant, leave my room!"
Ye Ming believed that talking with such people was a sheer waste of breath and time.
The Zhang family members had no realization of their own faults, with the audacity to bite back, which Ye Ming had not expected.
Their shamelessness had refreshed Ye Ming’s worldview.
What was even more frightening was that they believed their actions were completely justifiable, even going so far as to give Ye Ming a way out, expecting him to admit his own fault.
Ye Ming was restraining his temper because the ones before him were two girls.
Due to the consideration of gender, he didn’t want to resort to violence.
But if pushed too far, Ye Ming wouldn’t mind letting them suffer a bit.
Zhang Ruoxue’s face turned red with rage as she said, "Ye Ming, you’d better remember your words; you will regret what you’re doing. This is Ningjiang City, and our Zhang Family has a hundred ways to deal with you!"
"Don’t be so arrogant!"
Ye Ming snorted coldly and uttered merely one word, "Fine, I’ll wait for you to try."
Zhang Ruoyu’s face turned ashen, and she immediately turned to leave.
While Zhang Ruoxue watched Ye Ming with a threatening gaze, warning him, "Wait and see, you’ll be kneeling and begging me soon! Just wait!"
What they had said was not mere bravado.
Upon leaving, they saw a group of uniformed patrol officers hiding in the corridors of the hotel.
Seeing the two Miss Zhangs leaving in such a disheveled state, they understood what needed to be done.
"We’ll take it from here for the two Miss Zhangs!" said the patrol officers.
With that, a squad of patrol officers rushed into the hotel room.
Raising their weapons, the leader shouted, "Raise your hands immediately, don’t move! Get down on the ground!"
Ye Ming instantly understood what the Zhang sisters meant when they left.
Anger surged within him.
At that moment, without waiting for Ye Ming to speak, Xia Ningning had already stood in front of him.
Perhaps she was afraid Ye Ming would act rashly, that’s why she did this.
"What are you planning to do?" Xia Ningning demanded.
The leading law enforcer shouted loudly, "Ye Ming, you are suspected of fraud, causing trouble in Ningjiang City, we have already gathered evidence! Please come with us!"
After saying this, the leading law enforcer moved forward to apprehend Ye Ming.
Xia Ningning’s posture did not waver as she stood firmly in front of Ye Ming, fearlessly questioning, "Who gave you the audacity to arrest people at will?"
"Do you have an arrest warrant?"
"Where is your evidence?"
Xia Ningning’s consecutive questions did not shake the resolve of the leading law enforcer.
He coldly responded, "The two Misses of the Zhang Family are here, they are the evidence, they represent the arrest warrant!"
Xia Ningning’s gaze gradually turned icy.
Her tone also became less polite, saying, "Just based on the words of two women from the Zhang Family, you think you can arrest people at will? Is there no law left?"
The leading law enforcer was beginning to lose patience and said, "Law? In Ningjiang City, I am the law! Take him!"
Just as he was about to take action, a furious shout suddenly came from Xia Ningning’s cell phone.
"Captain Wang, what are you trying to do? Are you rebelling against the heavens?"
The reprimand left the leading law enforcer somewhat stunned.
He looked at Xia Ningning’s phone, where the call display showed a familiar number, belonging exclusively to the Ningjiang Mayor.
There were not many people who knew this number in Ningjiang City, and Captain Wang was directly shocked.
"Mayor? How are you..."
Before Captain Wang could speak, scolding came from the other end of the line, "I have already told you not to meddle with the affairs of the Zhang Family and Mr. Ye. Have you taken my words for the wind? Dare to act without my permission, you’re utterly audacious!"
"I..." Captain Wang, reduced to submissiveness by the scolding, did not dare to show any temper. His previously arrogant demeanor had faded away, as he humbly accepted the criticism with a downcast face. free𝑤ebnovel.com
"What ’I’? Go back immediately, and while you’re at it, apologize to Miss Xia and Mr. Ye! Otherwise, I’m stripping you of your position!"
"Miss Xia, it’s my fault for not managing my subordinates properly, please don’t take it to heart!" fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
On the phone, the Mayor’s tone was extremely humble, continuously apologizing to Xia Ningning.
Xia Ningning just casually hummed a few times and then hung up the phone. After that, her gaze firmly locked onto Captain Wang and his men.
She asked, "Captain Wang, are you still planning to arrest someone?"
Immediately, Captain Wang stepped back, his body bending involuntarily as he said humbly, "Miss Xia, Mr. Ye, we failed to understand the situation properly, we are truly sorry!"
"The two of you please rest, we won’t disturb you further!"
After he spoke, Captain Wang waved his hand, ready to lead his men out of the room.
However, Xia Ningning suddenly asked, "Do you think this place is a marketplace? Come whenever you wish, leave whenever you want?"
