Revenge of the Wife

Chapter 88

Xiao Xiao was so angry that she almost gritted her back molars into powder, but she didn't dare scold Huang Dehan. Her hands on her lap clenched and relaxed.

She felt very helpless.

If you asked her if she regretted it, she couldn't really say. She had sold her body to raise money for her father's medical treatment. If she had to do it again, she would still choose this path, because it was the only way to quickly earn money.

Her father's illness could not wait for her to earn money slowly.

So she did not regret it.

Meeting Huang Dehan could only be said to be her bad luck. No one was to blame.

She didn't hate Li Man either.

The only one she hated was Huang Dehan.

Huang Dehan took Xiao Xiao to a Xiang cuisine restaurant with an elegant decor.

He had an appointment here with a client.

As deputy general manager, if he secured this client, he would be able to compete for the position of general manager.

So he placed great importance on this client.

They arrived very early. The client hadn't yet arrived, so Huang Dehan got a private room.

After sitting down, Huang Dehan repeatedly instructed Xiao Xiao that she must find a way to get the client.

They waited for about two hours before the client finally strolled in, unhurried.

"Deputy Manager Huang, I'm really sorry to have kept you waiting so long."

The client smiled insincerely as he offered the perfunctory apology. When he saw Xiao Xiao next to Huang Dehan, his eyes lit up. "And who is this beautiful lady?"

Huang Dehan quickly introduced her: "Her name is Xiao Xiao. She's my younger sister."

Then he said to Xiao Xiao, "Xiao Xiao, this is Manager Liu."

"Pleased to meet you, Manager Liu. I've heard a lot about you," Xiao Xiao quickly extended her slender jade-white hand.

Manager Liu eagerly grasped Xiao Xiao's jade hand, reluctant to let go for a long time. "Xiao Xiao, is it? Where do you work?"

"Manager Liu, I'm still in school right now," Xiao Xiao replied.

She wanted to take her hand back, but Manager Liu had clutched it tightly. She couldn't pull it free no matter how she tried. Not daring to offend him, she had to give up and just let him keep holding her hand.

Manager Liu was over fifty, with a bald head and beer belly. His face was covered in brown spots, though it was unclear if they were liver spots or some other kind. Simply looking at him was enough to turn one's stomach.

If he had been young and handsome, accompanying him wouldn't have been so bad. But the man before her now...

Xiao Xiao suppressed the revulsion in her heart and sat next to Manager Liu.

Although she sold her body, she did choose her clients. She would never consider someone so old.

Yet now, Huang Dehan actually wanted her to entertain such an old, disgusting client.

Stroking Xiao Xiao's hand, Manager Liu leered and said, "Still in school? No wonder you're so pretty. What school do you go to?"

"The arts academy," Xiao Xiao replied softly.

"Oh, so you study art. No wonder you have such good temperament, like an immortal fairy, untouched by the mundane world."

Manager Liu showered her with compliments, his eyes fixed on Xiao Xiao since the moment he entered. They hadn't left her for a second, and he was practically drooling.

Seeing how much Manager Liu liked Xiao Xiao, Huang Dehan was very pleased. With great tact, he said, "Manager Liu, I'm really sorry, but something suddenly came up and I can't stay to eat with you. Why don't I leave my sister Xiao Xiao to keep you company? What do you think?"

Manager Liu was delighted. "That's fine. Go take care of your business. I'll be happy with Xiao Xiao's company."

Huang Dehan exchanged a few more pleasantries with Manager Liu, then said, "So about this order..."

Looking meaningfully at Xiao Xiao, Manager Liu replied, "Well, that depends on how Xiao Xiao performs."

Huang Dehan quickly shot Xiao Xiao a look, signaling her to agree.

Xiao Xiao felt bitter inside, but shyly said, "Anything that makes Manager Liu happy is fine with me!"

Hearing this, Manager Liu laughed so hard that his little eyes narrowed into slits. He was extremely pleased. To Huang Dehan he said, "Deputy Manager Huang, contact my secretary tomorrow and we'll settle it."

"Good, good. Enjoy your meal slowly. I'll take my leave first." Huang Dehan left, very satisfied.
