Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 95

"Divorce, we must divorce!" the Old Master said firmly. "She’s so beneath us! If we hold a banquet at home in the future and everyone sees that girl, wouldn’t we be laughed to death?" Just thinking about this made the Old Master feel extremely upset!

Xiao Linye stated, "You know that’s not possible."

"No, you..."

"Enough. I came back to make things clear to you, and now I have. Don’t go to Shanyu Pavilion recently."

He’s not allowing me to go? Is he afraid I’ll eat that girl up? Right now, I really do want to chop that girl up, the Old Master fumed internally.

Xiao Linye had already stood up. Looking at his father, whose face was ashen with anger, he added, "If you want her to get a fortune out of me, you can go find her yourself."

The Old Master was speechless. Get a fortune! When he heard this, his face grew even uglier. Only then did he remember what Lai Shuo had blurted out when he was being angrily scolded last night—that she still didn’t know Xiao Linye’s identity. This was the only remotely comforting part of this whole mess.

"You little rascal, I will never approve of you two being together!"

Xiao Linye’s only response was to turn and walk away, his cold silhouette receding from view. This nearly made the Old Master collapse on the spot!

Lai Shuo thought that since Xiao Linye was back, he would at least have lunch. But in less than half an hour, he saw Xiao Linye come out, and at the same moment, he received a call from the Old Master.

Without a doubt, the Old Master was extremely agitated and tore into him over the phone! The gist of it was that Lai Shuo was useless for letting some nobody whisk Xiao Linye away right under his nose.

A... a drudge? It was then that Lai Shuo remembered Xiao Linye had given him a number, saying it belonged to a drudge at Manlang, and had even told him to poach her for the Xiao Corporation! So, that drudge... was his wife?!

In shock, Lai Shuo, being berated to the point of doubting his own existence, could only say, "I’m sorry, it’s all my fault!" He didn’t dare refute the Old Master’s rage—any backtalk would lead to an even crazier scolding!

Twenty minutes later, Lai Shuo finally managed to hang up. His face ashen, he glanced in the rearview mirror at his esteemed ancestor in the backseat, who was resting with his eyes closed. "The Old Master is extremely angry!" That was an understatement; he was practically murderous.

Xiao Linye didn’t respond.

Lai Shuo was somewhat troubled. "The Old Master said... his wife is a drudge? Is that true?" If that’s really the case, then what kind of person did *he* find? She’s not pretty enough for the Old Master’s standards, and she’s a drudge on top of that—this is beyond belief! Every one of the ninety-nine candidates the Old Master found had a distinguished background, didn’t they? And weren’t they all fair-skinned beauties with long legs? But the one *he* found...! No wonder the Old Master is so furious.

"Go to Manlang," Xiao Linye said icily.

Lai Shuo asked, "Should I make an appointment with the Civil Affairs Bureau for you?" So he really couldn’t withstand the pressure and is going to find her for a divorce? That’s more like it! Listening to advice is often a good thing.

When Lai Shuo mentioned the Civil Affairs Bureau, Xiao Linye merely shot him an icy glare.

Lai Shuo froze. Did I say something wrong again?

Of course, Xiao Linye wouldn’t bother to answer him.

On the way, Xiao Linye messaged Ye Yuning, asking if she had eaten lunch yet.

Ye Yuning replied, "I’ve eaten!"

Seeing this reply, a flicker of disappointment crossed his eyes. Then he said to Lai Shuo, who was driving, "We’re not going."

"Huh? Not going anymore?" So, he’s not getting a divorce after all? When Lai Shuo heard him say they weren’t going, he felt somewhat disappointed. He really couldn’t take it much longer. If this ancestor of his continued like this, he’d be scolded to death by the Old Master one of these days!

Hearing Lai Shuo’s disappointed tone, Xiao Linye’s face grew colder. "Tell him I never once thought about divorce when I got married. He should just give up that idea."

Lai Shuo was petrified. Not getting divorced? Does he intend to spend his life with a drudge? Wouldn’t I be even more finished then? Before, when this ancestor was unmarried, the Old Master would vent his anger on me! Now that he’s married, and to someone unsuitable, it’s even worse for me. Lai Shuo thought about resigning, but he also knew that while others might simply resign and walk away, his problems couldn’t be solved by resigning. My life is so hard!

...

Meanwhile, Ye Yuning returned to her office. About ten minutes later, Chen Wei burst in, practically steaming. Her face was so disgusted, it was as if she’d eaten a fly.

Ye Yuning asked, "What’s wrong with you?" Her assistant’s temper really was getting worse by the day. She’d fly off the handle at the slightest disagreement, working herself into a rage. Still, an employee so completely devoted to the company was truly rare! frёeωebɳovel.com

"Ye Tong! She set up her office right above ours! Right upstairs!" Chen Wei exclaimed. "It’s obvious she’s doing it on purpose, trying to step all over us!"

Ye Yuning saw how furious Chen Wei was. So that’s what this is about. Her office is upstairs. No wonder we ran into them this morning and at noon. "You’re getting upset over this?"

"Aren’t you upset? She’s doing it on purpose!" Chen Wei’s voice rose. "That Ye Tong is utterly disgusting! The way she snatched things before was sickening enough, but this latest stunt? It’s like she’s trying to shove flies down our throats!"
