Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Moving to a New Home _1
People with such a striking characteristic were few and far between in Hai City.
As Wang Hai took a closer look, he was instantly petrified.
He had never imagined that the person standing beside Ye Ming was Scarface.
He wished he could slap himself twice; just moments ago, he had insultingly called Scarface a moron, which was a grave insult.
"Damn, it really is Scarface!"
Wang Hai’s body began to retreat, void of the arrogance he had displayed just before.
Just as he was about to turn and run, Scarface had already kicked him, sending Wang Hai sprawling face-first into the ground.
"Kid, repeat what you just said, who’s the moron?" Scarface glared with his eyes wide open, his fierce face nearly making Wang Hai wet his pants.
Swallowing his saliva, Wang Hai pointed to his own nose and said, "Brother Dao, I am the moron, it’s me who’s the moron!"
"Please be magnanimous, please don’t take it to heart!"
Scarface snorted coldly and cursed, "I am not a forgiving person!"
Having said that, Scarface raised his hand as if to strike.
It was Wang Hai who had directed his lackeys to smash up Ye Ming’s home; if it weren’t for this matter, Scarface wouldn’t have had to give up his own villa to apologize to Ye Ming.
In the end, he still had to accept the humiliation from this guy.
The more Scarface thought about it, the angrier he got, and he even harbored thoughts of killing.
But just then, Ye Ming suddenly said, "Enough, let them go for now."
Ye Ming didn’t want to end the game so quickly; he wanted to keep this despicable couple and deal with them several more times.
Moreover, with the powerful Qianyang Corporation backing Wang Hai, if Scarface truly offended them, he wouldn’t stand to gain anything himself.
The barely established relationship would also collapse, a loss far outweighing any possible gain.
"Keep these people around, I’ll take care of them slowly."
With these words from Ye Ming, although Scarface was not convinced, he still stood up and let Wang Hai go.
"You two listen, if there’s a next time, you won’t be so lucky!" Scarface said viciously.
Wang Hai didn’t dare say another word; he nodded hastily, then scrambled away from the scene with Xu Ling.
Neither of them had expected that Ye Ming’s influence was so substantial that he could summon the leader of the underworld to act as his underling.
The wise do not fight when the situation is against them; the only option was to flee first and foremost.
After the incident had died down, Ye Ming bade farewell to Scarface and took his mother back home.
Jiang Rou was still unsettled by her son’s transformation but decided not to question it; instead, she said, "Son, please don’t pick up bad habits, or it would dishonor your father’s memory." freeweɓnøvel.com
Ye Ming revealed a gentle smile and said, "Mom, don’t worry. I’m just protecting myself and you. I will never do anything out of line."
Jiang Rou sighed and continued, "There’s too much trouble in this city, and I’m too old to deal with it."
"I’m thinking of going back to the countryside for a few days to take care of our old family home."
Ye Ming was somewhat surprised, "Mom, what’s going on? Why do you suddenly want to go back home?"
Smiling, Jiang Rou replied, "Don’t worry, son, I just miss our home. After all, it’s where I lived for half my life. I want to go back and see it, and also to pay my respects to your grandfather."
Hearing this, Ye Ming nodded and didn’t ask any further questions.
And he had an idea in his mind, in a few days, he would go back and properly pay respects at his grandfather’s grave.
"Alright, I will send someone to take you back now," Ye Ming said as he was about to call Scarface.
But at this moment, Jiang Rou had already taken out the bus ticket she had prepared in advance.
It turned out that ever since Xu Lele had visited her home, Jiang Rou had already bought a ticket to go back home.
Selling the house to Ye Ming for his wedding was not just empty talk.
Ye Ming suddenly thought of something and quickly said, "Mom, we can’t sell our ancestral home, you don’t need to worry about the money anymore, your son will find a way by himself, you just stay here for a few more days, and I’ll come to get you in a few days!"
...
After sending off his mother, Ye Ming sat alone in the empty house and immediately began his alchemy work.
In his mind, he already had a rough business blueprint—a few cheap, yet effective herbal pills that he planned to bring to the market.
Only if he could open up the market, could he change his impoverished circumstances, and avoid living off others’ charity.
While he was engrossed in pill making, the doorbell of his room suddenly rang.
Ye Ming was a bit surprised, not knowing who the visitor could be. When he opened the door, Xu Lele was standing outside, smiling at him.
"I came to see your new home, you wouldn’t refuse me, would you?"
Xu Lele asked.
Ye Ming hurriedly made a welcoming gesture. How could he not welcome a beautiful lady’s visit?
He also immediately thought that it must have been Scarface who had told her his new address.
Following closely behind was another person, to Ye Ming’s surprise, it was Xia Ningning.
As she entered and saw the lavish villa, Xia Ningning couldn’t help but ask, "Certainly some people haven’t been using Miss Xu’s name to cheat and deceive others, have they?"
She definitely didn’t come with good intentions, but Ye Ming was used to it by now.
And such things were not difficult to guess. Ye Ming didn’t argue and straightforwardly said, "I did indeed use Miss Xu’s name, but the villa is not a benefit I obtained for nothing, I promised to give him a few herbal pills."
"These herbal pills’ market price is not cheaper than this villa."
Xia Ningning saw the piles of herbal residue on the ground and a few not very appealing herbal pills and immediately showed a look of disdain, "You can’t be talking about these, can you?"
"A few crappy pills, daring to compare their price with a villa? That’s really laughable."
Xia Ningning ruthlessly mocked, making Xu Lele a bit uncomfortable, who quickly tried to mediate, "Ningning, don’t say that. Ye Ming’s herbal pills must be very useful."
"After all, he is highly skilled in medicine, so the pills he makes can’t be that bad."
This statement made Ye Ming feel much better. He immediately picked up two Beauty Pills and handed them to Xu Lele, saying, "Miss Xu’s trust is the greatest encouragement for me."
"These are the Beauty Pills I’ve recently developed. After taking them, they can regulate hormones, promote the expulsion of toxins from the body, and achieve a beautifying effect. You can try it out."
Upon hearing this, Xu Lele instantly became overjoyed. Which girl doesn’t love beauty? Xu Lele was no exception.
She swallowed the pills without hesitation, making Xia Ningning, who was beside her, stare in disbelief, "Lele, how can you just trust him so easily? What if he gave you poison?"
Xu Lele said nonchalantly, "Even if it’s poison, I’m willing. If I die, I want to die beautiful!"
After that, Xu Lele began to look around Ye Ming’s new residence, while Xia Ningning was sizing up Ye Ming, muttering fiercely, "Bastard! I will definitely make Lele give up on you!"
