Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 77

She had accepted the losses concerning the Qin Family and the shares! But did Ye Yuning think things would just end like this? Dream on. I won’t let her off so easily.

When Ye Tong heard that the office was all ready, her crying stopped instantly. "This... this quickly?"

Zheng Cai clenched her teeth and nodded. "Since you know Ashuo despises you for not being as capable as Ye Yuning, pull yourself together, you hear?"

It was one thing not to mention Xiao Shuo, but now that he came up...! I remembered how Xiao Shuo feared Seventh Master Xiao. Just because Ye Yuning got involved with Seventh Master Xiao, he acted like a mouse before a cat—utterly unmanly! If my designs were favored by Seventh Master, then wouldn’t Ye Yuning be out of the picture? By then, Xiao Shuo would surely come crawling back to me, begging for a reunion, right?

Thinking of this, Ye Tong’s eyes lit up with excitement, and she nodded firmly. "Mm-hmm, I’m ready."

"I’ve also prepared two designers for you, and found two partners as well," Zheng Cai added.

"That few?" Upon hearing that there were only two designers and partners, Ye Tong’s tone rose slightly.

I knew very well that Ye Yuning was currently so swamped with collaborations she could barely keep up. Even her small studio had fully equipped departments! Reception, Customer Service, HR, Finance, Design—all separate! So, with my office, including me, that’s just three people. How are we supposed to divide the departments?

Seeing her dissatisfaction, Zheng Cai was unfazed and reassured her, "This is just the beginning; everything has to be taken slowly. As long as you work hard, surpassing Ye Yuning is only a matter of time, okay?"

Hearing this, Ye Tong nodded again.

I knew very well that Xiao Shuo was unlikely to come back to me now. So my only option at the moment is to surpass Ye Yuning in competence and win Seventh Master’s approval! I finally understand: in the Xiao Family, Xiao Li, Xiao Shuo’s father, doesn’t call the shots. It’s all up to this Seventh Master Xiao!

"Mom, rest assured, I will come up with a design that will satisfy Uncle Seven," she said confidently.

Hearing her refer to Seventh Master Xiao as Uncle Seven made Zheng Cai smile. "Then get to work quickly."

"Okay!"

That settled it! The two began scheming how to snatch the Xiao Family’s collaboration from Ye Yuning’s hands. If they secured this collaboration with the Xiao Family, their standoff with Ye Yuning would be half won.

Ye Yuning, who returned to Shanyu Pavilion with Xiao Linye, had no idea how naive Ye Tong and Zheng Cai were, much less what they were plotting.

After taking a bath, Ye Yuning, with a face mask on, came out of her room wanting to grab a yogurt from the fridge. Having lived here for a few days, she had gradually adapted and no longer felt the initial apprehension she once had around Xiao Linye.

Xiao Linye, who was sitting on the sofa watching the financial news channel, heard the movement and looked towards her. "Hungry again?"

Ye Yuning didn’t pick up on the deeper meaning of the word ’again’!

She shook her head. "Just a bit thirsty." Saying that, she took out her favorite yogurt from the fridge. As she unscrewed the lid and walked towards Xiao Linye, she sat down on the armchair next to him.

Her gaze shifted to the television. This is a channel I often watch too! freewёbn૦νeɭ.com

Seeing she wasn’t heading back to the bedroom, Xiao Linye raised an eyebrow at her. "You like this channel too?"

"Yeah, I like it!" Ye Yuning nodded, taking a sip of the yogurt in her hand. She drank too quickly, and a couple of drops slid from the corner of her mouth, landing directly on her fair neck. The yogurt, clinging to her slightly baby-faced skin, presented an enticing sight.

Xiao Linye’s Adam’s apple bobbed involuntarily, and he quickly averted his gaze. A mere helper, interested in the financial news channel? That seemed far beyond her presumed scope.

Before Xiao Linye could say anything else, his phone vibrated. Taking it out, he saw it was Xiao Li calling.

Answering, he lowered his voice, "Hello."

"Seventh Brother, it’s me!"

"Mm," Xiao Linye replied, his tone flat.

This made the person on the other end of the line feel somewhat awkward. But Xiao Li couldn’t be bothered with that and hurriedly said, "That Ashuo kid broke up with the Ye family’s biological daughter."

Xiao Linye frowned. "What do you mean?"

"From now on, the Ye Family will have no connection to our Xiao Family. So, you see...?" Xiao Li couldn’t bring himself to continue. But after hearing from Ashuo about how Ye Tong and her mother had acted up again upon his return, he felt it necessary to call Xiao Linye.

Only then did Xiao Linye realize what Ashuo’s earlier message had meant.

"Understood," Xiao Linye said, his tone even colder. Then, before the other party could say more, Xiao Linye hung up. He hadn’t elaborated because their current situation with Manlang was rather delicate. They might not even cooperate anymore, so whether Ashuo and Ye Tong broke up or not is of no concern to me! In the future, if the Ye family members cause trouble for that Boss Ye, it will have nothing to do with me either. After all, I don’t need to keep cleaning up their messes!

Just as he hung up, he saw an interview with himself suddenly appear on the TV screen!

In that moment, Xiao Linye’s heart couldn’t help but skip a beat!
