Chapter 84: Li Ting wants to trouble Xiao Qingxue
Ye Chen, the housekeeper told me that Li Ting is looking for you again. Why dont you meet her? Wang Hong said to Ye Chen.
Just tell her Im not here, Ye Chen replied, his face showing rejection upon hearing Wang Hongs words.
He was truly driven to madness by Li Tings relentless pursuit lately. To Ye Chen, she was simply unappealing.
I know Li Ting isnt the best in terms of appearance, but you should consider her family background, Wang Hong seriously advised Ye Chen.
This wasnt the first time Wang Hong had brought this up with Ye Chen. From a beneficial standpoint, Li Ting was definitely a good match.
Ye Chen, a man who valued appearance, couldnt bring himself to marry Li Ting regardless of the benefits.
I cant possibly marry a pig and bring her home, he flatly refused.
Alright, if youre unwilling, let it be, Wang Hong sighed, slightly disappointed. Ill lie and say youre not here.
Ye Chen nodded at Wang Hong, Thank you.
Also, I dont plan on staying at the Wang family anymore.
Why, are you uncomfortable living with us? Wang Hong asked, surprised by Ye Chens decision not to stay.
You are the benefactor who saved our elders life. If theres anything youre unhappy with, you can tell me.
Its not that Im dissatisfied, Im just not used to it.
Staying with the Wang family is safer for you right now. If you leave, the Luo family might secretly move against you, Wang Hong warned Ye Chen.
Its fine, Im not afraid of the Luo family. I actually hope they try something, Ye Chen said with a cold laugh. Even if the Luo family was powerful in Magic, did they think he was easy to deal with?
Wang Hong didnt try to persuade Ye Chen further, knowing he was a man of firm resolve.
If you run into any trouble, you can contact me. Do you have a place to stay? If not, I can arrange one for you.
After a moments thought, Ye Chen replied, Then Ill have to trouble you.
He didnt want to go to the Xiao family. If he didnt go there, he indeed had nowhere to stay.
First, help me send Li Ting away.
You dont know how lucky you are, Wang Hong said, shaking his head as he left.
Lucky? Was Li Ting considered luck?
To the average person, being favored by Li Ting was indeed fortunate. She was the epitome of a wealthy young woman.
It was just that she was a bit overweight and not very attractive.
Li Ting, youre here for Ye Chen, right? Unfortunately, he just left.
Ye Chen isnt here? Uncle Wang, you wouldnt deceive me, would you?
Li Ting frowned slightly. She had been monitoring the Wang family and had not noticed Ye Chen leaving.
No, of course not. Why would I lie to you?
Then tell me where Ye Chen went?
Li Tings face darkened. She wasnt foolish and knew Ye Chen had no feelings for her, even finding her quite repulsive.
Ye Chen didnt tell me where he was going when he left. How about I inform you as soon as he returns?
Hmph.
Li Ting snorted coldly, then turned and left. She could see that Wang Hong was just placating her. Did he think she was a fool?
Watching Li Tings angry departure, Wang Hongs brow furrowed. The young lady had quite a temper. No wonder Ye Chen didnt like her.
Besides her family background, Li Ting indeed seemed to be an unsuitable match for Ye Chen. Initially, Wang Hong had thought of bringing Ye Chen and Li Ting together, but now he decided against it.
He wasnt worried about Li Ting being angry, as the person in charge of the prestigious Wang family, why would he fret over a juniors feelings? Even if the Li family doted on Li Ting, they wouldnt cause trouble with the Wang family over such a trivial matter.
Cursed be, Im so angry! Whats wrong with me? Why doesnt Ye Chen like me?
Fuming, Li Ting left the Wang residence, kicking her car door so hard that it dented. It must be because of that vixen Xiao Qingxue. Thats why Ye Chen doesnt like me.
Hatred and resentment glinted in her eyes.
Li Ting had spent time investigating Ye Chen and learned about his fondness for Xiao Qingxue, hence her growing resentment. Already envious and jealous of Xiao Qingxue, who was hailed as the most beautiful woman in Magic City, excelling in looks, figure, and capability, far surpassing Li Ting. Naturally, she harbored hatred towards Xiao Qingxue, especially since both men she liked had fallen for Xiao Qingxue, the seductress.
Where is Xiao Qingxue? Li Ting asked her bodyguard cum driver, her voice laced with venom.
Miss, according to our investigation, Xiao Qingxue has mostly been staying at her stepmother Zhao Yingxuans place recently.
Arent they on bad terms? Li Ting, who had researched Xiao Qingxues background, knew that there was no harmony between Xiao Qingxue and Zhao Yingxuan.
Never mind, take me to Xiao Qingxue.
Li Ting got into the car, which, despite its spacious interior, seemed cramped once she was inside. The vehicle noticeably sank under her weight, equivalent to that of three average people.
Upon arriving at Zhao Yingxuans villa, Li Ting shouted loudly, Xiao Qingxue, you vixen, come out!
Go, kick down the villas door, she ordered her bodyguard.
The bodyguard, who had learned the hard consequences of disobeying Li Ting, complied without hesitation. Known for her harsh treatment of her staff, Li Tings bodyguards only stuck around because of the high salary.
Did you kick this? Xia Lan asked coldly, looking at the broken door. With a swift kick, she knocked out Li Tings bodyguard, sending him flying five meters away.
You what are you going to do? Li Ting, who typically acted tough but was faint-hearted inside, was immediately intimidated by Xia Lan. Her burly bodyguard had just been effortlessly knocked out by this seemingly frail woman.
Come inside, Xia Lan said in a cold voice.
Hmph, as if Im scared of you.
Initially frightened by Xia Lans show of force, Li Ting regained her arrogance, bolstered by her own status.
She was the beloved princess of the Li family. Although the Li family in Magic City was not the strongest among the four major families, they were definitely not the weakest either. Even Xiao Yongqiang had to give her some face and could not afford to provoke the Magic City Li family.
Xia Lan brought Li Ting inside because Chen Luo had instructed her to do so. Originally, Chen Luo had planned to find an opportunity to meet Li Ting, but she had unexpectedly shown up on her own.
Attacking my bodyguard cannot be let off so easily, Li Ting thought viciously as she watched Xia Lans retreating back.
She was determined to take revenge. Attacking her bodyguard was akin to slapping her in the face. Theres a saying about assessing the master before hitting the dog. This was a direct affront to her dignity.
Plus, Li Ting had been frightened earlier, so she felt an even stronger need for retribution. Li Tings targets for revenge werent limited to Xia Lan, they also included Xiao Qingxue and Zhao Yingxuan. She believed that Xia Lans boldness was a result of either Zhao Yingxuan or Xiao Qingxues instructions.
As Li Ting walked through the courtyard and entered the villas living room, she immediately began hurling insults upon seeing Xiao Qingxue.
Xiao Qingxue, you shameless wench, all you know is how to seduce men.
Xiao Qingxue, who was unexpectedly berated by Li Ting, naturally had an unpleasant expression. She looked at Li Ting with a frosty demeanor.
Zhao Yingxuan, on the other hand, seemed to enjoy the drama. She, who always seemed to thrive in chaos, even hoped that Li Ting would start a physical fight with Xiao Qingxue, thinking it would be more entertaining.
