At this point, who should actually be the one to get angry?
Ye Yuning’s breathing was short and rapid. "Having an ex like you is downright embarrassing!"
"Moreover, instead of threatening me, you’d better advise Ye Tong to carefully choose a wedding dress and strive to be a beautiful bride. You should also think about how to get the Qin Family’s fool to put a ring on her finger, to prevent any embarrassment at the wedding ceremony!"
Knowing the draft revision was returned because of Xiao Shuo, and considering all the studio staff had come to work overtime, she was truly furious this time, unleashing a torrent of criticism without holding back!
Her harsh words drove Xiao Shuo on the other end of the line mad as well. "Ye Yuning, you woman...!"
This tough nut is really hard to crack, huh?
Such a sharp tongue! She’s not even that big, how can she have such a temper?
She caused this mess herself, and now she has the gall to throw a tantrum here!
Xiao Shuo’s breathing visibly grew heavier.
Ye Yuning was relentless. "The newly appointed President Xiao is your Seventh Uncle, right? Does he know about this rotten thing you’ve done?"
"What are you trying to do?"
Hearing her suddenly bring up Xiao Linye, Xiao Shuo’s tone instantly tensed.
Ye Yuning pressed on, "When your third uncle was president, you had nothing to do with the company. If your Seventh Uncle finds out how you’ve been messing around, the Xiao Corporation will want even less to do with you, right?"
Before Xiao Shuo could finish, Ye Yuning had already hung up, unwilling to deal with this idiot any longer!
Xiao Shuo had thought that knowing Xiao Linye was his Seventh Uncle, Ye Yuning would at least show some deference.
But she didn’t utter a single conciliatory word and just hung up like that?
With tears in her eyes, Ye Tong tugged at his sleeve. "Ashuo, will Sister take care of it?"
Fury surged through Xiao Shuo.
Hearing Ye Tong’s plaintive voice, his head buzzed, and he impatiently pulled his sleeve from her grasp.
Ye Tong’s hand was suddenly empty, and her heart tightened with it.
"Do you think that woman isn’t afraid of anything?" Xiao Shuo muttered.
The whole of Upper City knew she was just an adopted daughter of the Ye Family. How did she become so arrogant?
Hearing Xiao Shuo say this, Ye Tong roughly understood that the call had been a waste of time.
She too wondered why Ye Yuning was so arrogant, to the point of disregarding even Upper City’s foremost Xiao Family.
If that was the case, then the Qin Family... she surely...!
At this thought, Ye Tong’s heart inexplicably began to panic.
Xiao Shuo, having been berated by Ye Yuning repeatedly, felt even more uncomfortable. "I’m leaving. You get some rest!"
"You... you’re not staying to keep me company?"
Ye Tong snapped back to reality, looking at Xiao Shuo in disbelief.
Just moments ago, when Zheng Cai saw Xiao Shuo arrive, she had quickly left, leaving the two of them alone.
And now, right after a phone call with Ye Yuning, he was itching to leave!
Was it because of Ye Yuning?
Realizing this, Ye Tong felt a surge of discomfort. "I’ve just had surgery, my mom isn’t here, and I’m all alone..."
"It’s just a minor abortion procedure, don’t make such a fuss about it!" Xiao Shuo retorted, utterly annoyed with this Ye Family.
Just a minor abortion procedure? Ye Tong couldn’t believe Xiao Shuo would say such a thing.
Before she could say anything more, Xiao Shuo had already left the ward!
Enraged, Ye Tong grabbed the nearby water pitcher and hurled it. "Bastard!"
What the hell is wrong with this Xiao Family?!
Thinking of how Xiao Shuo had left because of a call from Ye Yuning, Ye Tong shook with even more anger!
After Ye Yuning hung up on Xiao Shuo, she saved the recording of the call.
She stood up, left her office, and clapped her hands. "Everyone, stop your work."
At the sound of clapping, all eyes turned to her.
Ye Yuning announced, "Time to go home!"
Chen Wei immediately rose from her seat and approached Ye Yuning, puzzled. "President Ye, what’s going on?"
Are we really giving up on those millions?
Although the studio’s finances weren’t strained by a few million, it would still be a loss if we had to pay compensation.
Wouldn’t it be better not to compensate and give the employees bigger year-end bonuses instead?
Ye Yuning clenched her teeth. "You’re coming with me somewhere later."
Hearing her tone, which sounded like she wanted to throttle someone, Chen Wei paused, unsure where Ye Yuning intended to go, but nodded nonetheless.
"Everyone, go home! Clock out!" Ye Yuning declared.
With that said, Ye Yuning turned and went back to her office to pack.
Ma Di and Lei An also came to her office, looking confused.
Before they could speak, Ye Yuning said, "We’ll know for sure tomorrow if this matter can be resolved. Everyone go home and get a good night’s sleep."
Since she had put it that way, they naturally had nothing more to say.
Leaving the company, Ye Yuning, who had been riding scan-code bikes for days, finally drove out in her imposing G-Wagon!
Chen Wei, sitting in the passenger seat, asked puzzledly, "Where are we going?"
"To do what bandits do," Ye Yuning replied.
Chen Wei’s mouth twitched.
Before she could make sense of it, the car shot out of the garage like a bullet.
Although she and Xiao Shuo hadn’t truly gotten to know each other during their few years of engagement, rumors alone were enough to reveal his character.
Ye Tong had just had surgery, and there he was, out carousing again.
Upon arriving at Huangyin, they saw Xiao Shuo’s car in the parking lot, just as expected.
Looking at the huge neon sign, Chen Wei asked, "What are we doing here so late?"
Ye Yuning handed her a mask and a black hat. "Our manuscript wasn’t rejected by the Xiao Corporation today."
Chen Wei was shocked. "What?"
"It was Xiao Shuo’s doing!" Ye Yuning stated.
After that chaotic night at the office, she wouldn’t be able to sleep if she didn’t vent this resentment.
Chen Wei took a deep breath. Does this bastard of a rich heir really think we’re easy to bully?
This time, she didn’t ask further. She understood Ye Yuning’s purpose for coming here. She quickly took the gear from Ye Yuning’s hands and deftly put it on.
