Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 43

After entering the house, the man changed into a smoky-gray lounge set and went into the kitchen, his sleeves rolled up.

His silhouette from behind was still so attractive it made her heart race.

But at this moment, she couldn’t help but think of Tang Xi’s soon-to-be-divorced husband!

Tang Xi had said he was a real pain, always using a sarcastic, passive-aggressive tone to say things that made no sense, which infuriated her. free𝑤ebnovel.com

Ye Yuning instinctively glanced towards Xiao Linye in the kitchen. He didn’t seem to have used that kind of sarcastic tone just now...

She changed her clothes, went into the kitchen, and asked softly, "What are we having for dinner tonight?"

"Noodles. Is that okay?"

Ye Yuning nodded. "Yes. I’ll help you wash the vegetables."

She wasn’t a picky eater, just particular about flavors. She took vegetables from the refrigerator and started washing them in the sink.

Xiao Linye, who was frying eggs, glanced at the vegetables she was washing. "You really like lettuce?" he commented.

"Mhm, I love green vegetables."

Especially with noodles; if there weren’t any leafy greens, she felt they lacked soul!

Neither of them brought up what had happened earlier, but the atmosphere was clearly a little strained.

Even when the noodles were served, Ye Yuning still found herself instinctively glancing at Xiao Linye.

The man met her gaze. "What are you looking at?"

"I was wondering what you meant by your question earlier."

Was he comparing himself to her colleagues?

Thinking back to the underground garage, his car was parked right next to her G-Wagon. Did that make him feel insecure?

That was really unnecessary, wasn’t it?

Xiao Linye raised an eyebrow, clearly not expecting her to bring up the earlier topic so directly.

He chuckled softly. "Seeing all the luxury cars in your studio’s underground garage, I was worried you might mind."

He was worried *I* would mind? Ye Yuning instinctively looked at him again.

She cleared her throat twice. "Why would I mind? You can’t always compare yourself to others. That’s too exhausting!"

There’s always someone better out there.

As Tang Xi would say, her current situation was already excellent.

But if she were to compare herself with those more powerful than her, like Xiao Corp or the Qin Family, how could she possibly measure up?

Of course, it wasn’t worth the effort!

As long as one lives comfortably, that’s all that matters.

Hearing her response, Xiao Linye raised an eyebrow. The slight chill at the corners of his mouth involuntarily softened.

"These noodles are delicious!" Ye Yuning exclaimed, her face alight with satisfaction.

It had to be said, this man’s cooking skills were truly exceptional. He was handsome and a great cook!

Materially, he was also better off than many people. Ye Yuning thought with an open mind, concluding that Xiao Linye was quite outstanding.

Xiao Linye glanced at the large bowl he had deliberately given her and smiled. "Is it enough?"

He knew her appetite was larger than most girls’, so he had prepared a large bowl of noodles for her tonight.

She was so petite, not tall, and quite thin—where did all that food go!

Ye Yuning nodded. "Mhm, it’s enough. This bowl is huge! But next time I have noodles, I hope I can have an extra fried egg."

Her forthright request made Xiao Linye’s smile deepen. He nodded. "Alright."

The slight discomfort he’d felt earlier vanished just like that, pleasantly.

After dinner, Ye Yuning washed the dishes as usual.

Xiao Linye received a call from Lai Shuo and went straight to the study.

The Ye Family had caused a huge commotion, but finding themselves with no way to handle Ye Yuning, they eventually quieted down.

Ye Yuning, enjoying a rare moment of peace, took a shower, and fell asleep the moment her head hit the pillow.

「The next day, when she arrived at the office.」

Chen Wei was waiting anxiously by the elevators. Seeing Ye Yuning, she instinctively moved to block her path.

"What’s wrong?" Ye Yuning asked, puzzled.

Chen Wei said, "Ye Tong is here. She’s causing a scene in your office."

Ye Yuning raised an eyebrow. "Alone?"

"Yes, alone!"

Seeing Chen Wei’s worried expression, Ye Yuning knew what this commotion was about.

These people really never give up...

She had just finished dealing with Xiao Shuo, and now Ye Tong was here to stir up trouble!

The moment she pushed open her office door, she was met with a scene of complete chaos.

The trophies from the display cabinet, books, cups, decorative lamps—anything that could be smashed, had been.

The frenzied Ye Tong saw Ye Yuning and lunged at her uncontrollably, screaming, "Ye Yuning, you bitch!"

Her sharp nails aimed straight for Ye Yuning’s face!

Chen Wei instinctively moved to block her, but in the next instant, a sharp SLAP! echoed through the room.

Instantly, the air fell silent!

But the silence lasted only a moment. Ye Tong, already unhinged, clutched her face and glared at Ye Yuning with pure hatred.

"I’ll kill you!"

With a roar, she lunged at Ye Yuning again.

This time, Ye Yuning didn’t hold back, slapping her so hard she stumbled and fell to the ground.

Shards from a broken trophy on the carpet pierced Ye Tong’s thigh, making her gasp sharply in pain.

The intense pain momentarily sobered her frenzied state.

But then, her gaze fixed on Ye Yuning, filled with an even more bloodthirsty ferocity, as if she wanted to tear her limb from limb.

Ye Yuning dropped her bag on the floor and unbuttoned her blazer, her entire demeanor radiating a sharp, intimidating aura.

Looking down at the pale-faced Ye Tong, she said coolly, "So, you want to fight to the death? Bring it on!"

Ye Yuning’s sudden, fierce demeanor made Ye Tong’s breath catch in her throat.

Trembling, Ye Tong looked up at Ye Yuning. "How could the Ye Family raise a wolf like you? Ye Yuning, you’ll get what’s coming to you!"

The thought of Mrs. Qin’s visit to the Ye Family that morning ignited a fire in Ye Tong’s eyes that seemed to consume her entire being.
