Chapter 58

  The legal representatives and registered persons of all companies under Yi Lian are not Yi Lian himself, nor are they She Shang, but rather the elites selected by She Shang from within the company who have been promoted to general manager positions after signing various confidentiality agreements.

  The CEO of the children's clothing agency is named Xue Bai. This guy used to be a marketing manager at a high-end hotel chain, and he was exceptionally handsome. In that hotel, he was quite famous. Not only did Xue Bai have strong management skills, but also great interpersonal skills. It's said that many rich women wanted him as their toy boy. Xue Bai is a very capable leader, but previously, because he owed the hotel owner a favor, he stayed at the hotel as a marketing manager. No matter who came to recruit him to switch jobs, he wouldn't leave.

  She Sheng also met Xue Bai by chance, and She Sheng wanted to pull him over, but after Xue Bai told him the reason, he didn't force him anymore. However, the feelings between them were not bad, although She Sheng was six or seven years younger than him, there was no generation gap between them.

  Later, the hotel owner passed away and the hotel was inherited by his eldest son. Xue Bai and the hotel owner's eldest son were not close, and it could even be said that the hotel owner's eldest son was jealous of Xue Bai's talent. It was said that a woman liked by the hotel owner's eldest son had been snatched away by Xue Bai, so he harbored jealousy and bullied him everywhere, looking for trouble with him. Xue Bai wasn't a soft persimmon either, and after being bullied like this, he wouldn't stay at their hotel anymore. Song Shuang happened to come over to invite people, and Xue Bai followed Song Shuang away. Unexpectedly, not long after following Song Shuang, he was given such a difficult task!

  Xue Bai greatly appreciated Yang Sheng, he thought that a college student could do this, it was really not easy, so no matter what kind of reward Yang Sheng promised him, he would help him take care of everything with all his heart.

  Xue Bai is now Shu Song's right-hand man.

  There was another man named Hao Ran, who could also be said to have a certain reputation. He used to work at Yi Qing Tian N Province Company as the deputy general manager of the planning department and had known Si Cong for three years. Three years ago, Hao Ran was just a salesperson with no connections, experience or backing, but he managed to climb up to the position of deputy general manager within three years, which speaks volumes about his abilities. Si Cong also knew that Hao Ran was someone who used underhanded tactics and had a similar personality to Yi Ling, liking to leave no room for his enemies when doing things. However, he was also a man who valued loyalty and once when Hao Ran was on his way home and encountered someone seeking revenge with a knife, Si Cong happened to be passing by and saved Hao Ran's life using some self-defense techniques.

  Last time, Shang Xuan knew that Yi Ling acquired the cosmetics company, Shang Xuan had already pulled in Hao Ran, and now Hao Ran is the legal representative of that cosmetics company.

  Hao Ran is now equivalent to Ye Sheng's left hand.

  Yi Ling this kid, these days again like crazy and Ye Haiwei opened war, what despicable means are used, these days put Qing city made ??dark and smelly, heard that recently, there are several people because of stock being locked up while making a fuss about suicide, and many hooligans, because being chased by police while clamoring and causing trouble everywhere.

  Yi Ling is just a madman in She Shang's eyes!

  Xie Sheng is also a madman in the eyes of Xue Bai and Hao Ran, they really can't understand why a college student would work so hard to make his influence so huge. Moreover, his entrepreneurial funds seem to be endless, as long as they say which aspect lacks funding, that funding will automatically arrive. They really can't understand whether the money Xie Sheng took out was obtained illegally or not.

  Not mentioning the money, just these few days, Shi Cong's actions still made them incomprehensible. These past few days, Shi Cong had been searching everywhere for someone, sealing off this nightclub, investigating that casino, dispatching how many police officers to catch whom, without even giving a reason.

  Just seal it then, just arrest people then, still putting on a bitter and tired expression.

  Xue Bai and Hao Ran have been harassed by people in the company for several days. They followed Su Song to fight together, and they haven't closed their eyes for several days. Xue Bai and Hao Ran wanted to ask for a reason, but Su Song just cried in front of them, only saying one sentence: "Continue to toss around... Don't know when it will end..."

  Those two guys saw Shi Cong's expression and didn't ask anything else.

  Yi Ling, this guy, Xue Bai and Hao Ran had occasionally seen him a few times, but they still didn't know that Yi Ling was their major shareholder. All they knew was that Yi Ling would often appear in front of Ye Song, and seeing that Yi Ling was younger than Ye Song, they thought he was another protégé brought out by Ye Song.

  These days, She Sheng has been stationed at the newspaper office. Explosive Weekly had swallowed several newspapers some time ago, including one that was already under a cosmetics company, specializing in cosmetics sales magazines. The advertising company is also preparing to merge into the cosmetics company's internal advertising department. The company's listing conditions are not up to standard, but money can make ghosts grind, and the company's accounts are done so smoothly. After seeing those accounts, he felt that their company was like a gangster organization, savage and overbearing.

  Hao Ran had done a lot of work, but the cosmetics company's listing process was not going smoothly in recent days. Even with sufficient funds, they still encountered many obstacles, which made Hao Ran very worried. After asking Shen Shuang, Shen Shuang only told him two words, "Persevere."

  The company cannot be listed successfully, and the money spent is like flowing water. Nobody knows how much more money this kid Ye Ling has to spend. The listing of a single company requires at least 60-70 million yuan in funding, otherwise it can't be done. Now that things are stuck here, progress is not being made, and the money spent cannot be recovered, right?

  Shan Cong naturally knew that the company couldn't go public, and it must be Ye Haiwei's doing. No matter how much Hao Ran interrogated him, he had nothing to say! Was he going to tell Hao Ran and the others that it was because of a conflict between Yi Ling and Ye Haiwei, two brothers, so the company's progress deserved to be frozen? He estimated that if he said this, Hao Ran and the others would immediately turn around and run away, and wouldn't work for this madman again!

  Yi Ling has been in a bad mood these past few days, like he's having his period or something. He's been irritable and short-tempered, finding fault with everything. Now he's standing in front of She Song, making call after call nonstop on She Song's phone, using She Song's name to scold those underlings until they're covered in sweat.

  Shi Cong was almost kidnapped again a few days ago, and the person who came was very fierce. The movements, the speed, and the bullets whizzing by made Shi Cong feel like he was facing a special agent! His three-legged cat kung fu was no match for this guy. Fortunately, Yi Ling had also found a very capable bodyguard for him, a black man named Kalanta, who used to be a special agent but had his left hand tendon severed and quit the team after it healed but lost its flexibility. Now he helps Yi Ling with things and is specifically responsible for protecting Shi Cong. This time, the kidnapping attempt failed again, but Kalanta was also seriously injured, with a bullet wound on his left shoulder. However, the other side didn't get much benefit either, as Kalanta had twisted their right palm.

  Yi Ling scolded Ye Haiyuan: "That little brat's methods are vicious, his hands and feet are long, he actually dares to use bullets to greet people!"

  She sat in the corner, listening to his roar, her heart trembling nonstop.

  Suddenly, a ringing sound broke through Yi Ling's angry roar. It was his own mobile phone. Yi Ling immediately stopped all the scolding and shouting, picked up the phone and took a look at the caller ID display. Suddenly, he burst out laughing foolishly.

  She Shang saw Yi Ling's silly smile and was stunned!

  Just a moment ago you were fierce and overbearing, now you're standing there with a silly smile on your face? And it's even a bit lewd?

  Whose phone is it? Si Cong was a bit bewildered.

  Yi Ling answered the phone and was about to say something when she said, "Hello, baby..."

  But the phone rang before he could speak up first.

  "Yi Ling, you bastard."

  Yi Ling's smile suddenly froze, and he himself also stiffened. He stared blankly, holding the phone to his ear, not saying a word, just dryly blinking his eyes.

  She Sheng couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, "Yi Ye? Whose phone is it?"

  Yi Ling's stiff face suddenly fell, and he looked wronged, not saying a word, just pouting his mouth as if thinking about something.

  I heard that last time he and Ye Haiwei had a war, it was also inexplicably received a text message, and then announced a ceasefire.

  Yi Ling walked weakly to the sofa, still not saying a word, as if he had been severely hit. He started making a phone call, but the phone couldn't get through no matter how many times he tried. After several attempts, it still couldn't get through, until the phone prompted that the other party's phone was turned off, Yi Ling finally hung up his mobile phone.

  Shan Xiang looked at him with a puzzled expression and asked again, "Yi Ye? What's wrong? Say something!"

  Yi Ling's silent expression made Si Cong truly afraid, more so than when he was furious, and for some reason, it terrified him.

  Yi Ling made a phone call to Ye Haiwei, and Ye Haiwei answered it.

  "Brother, let's stop fighting."

  Ye Hai was stunned for a long time when he heard that phone call. He didn't know that Yi Ling, this little brat, would one day surrender to him?

  Ye Haiyi felt strange and asked, "What's going on?" Just now they were still fighting well, it was impossible for Yi Ling to suddenly declare a ceasefire.

  Yi Ling said with a sobbing tone, "Xiao Wan called me a son of a bitch."

  "What?" Ye Haiyu was stunned again.

  "Xiao Wan has never sworn before, what does it mean that she's calling me a son of a bitch now?"

  Ye Hai listened and felt a little ashamed, but he couldn't help feeling a twinge of delight in his heart. However, after thinking about it for a moment, he realized that "Xiao Wan might be angry, and she's really angry."

  Yi Ling was confused again, "I haven't been back for days, what's she mad at me for?"

  "Who made you kiss her like that!" At this mention, Ye Haiwei still had a belly full of fire in his heart.

  "This all happened last week, and besides, she agreed to it herself! She agreed, that's why I touched her!" Yi Ling stood up, indignant, and said, "Xiao Wan wouldn't scold me as a bastard because of this! Ye Haiwei! Is it you? Tell me the truth, are you trying to drive a wedge between Xiao Wan and my relationship?"

  Ye Hai furrowed his brow and said, "I'm not that despicable! My reputation won't be worse than yours, no need to use such tactics to bully you! Don't spout nonsense!"

  "It's not you, then why did she scold me as a turtle egg? You explain it to me!"

  "It's strange, why do I need to explain? Besides, why didn't Xiaowen call me and scold me as a bastard, but instead called you and scolded you as a bastard? You must have done something wrong to her."

  "Bastard! Ye Haiyi! Come back here, let's go home and have a good talk."

  "Alright."

  She Shang stood aside, cold wind whizzing past his collar, his heart suddenly chilled to the bone.

  He finally understood that the two brothers were just fighting over a woman named Xiaowen, and it had escalated to such a big deal! It even involved so many innocent people in the battle! And almost, he was shot by someone sent by Ye Haiwei!

  Now they're fine again, those two have stopped fighting over that woman's one sentence of nonsense.

  Who is that woman? How can she have such great ability and make these two brothers like this?

  Before, Shu Song knew that the two brothers were competing for an unmarried wife. The unmarried wife's name was Luo Mei Yue. Shu Song had seen her several times, but he disliked that woman very much. She was a hypocrite who would say one thing to your face and another behind your back. At that time, Yi Ling and Ye Hai Wei liked her so much, so Shu Song didn't bother to tell them anything. However, Shu Song also knew that the two brothers had agreed on a friendly competition and wouldn't fight with each other because of Luo Mei Yue's words.

  Lu Mei Yue suddenly left N Province, and Xie Song heard some rumors, but didn't know the specific situation. He only knew that the two brothers almost at the same time gave up on Lu Mei Yue, and even had a falling out with their father to prevent her from returning to N Province.

  Now there is actually a girl who can make these two brothers behave like this, Zou Xuan is really curious, who exactly is that girl?

  Ji Xiaowan knew that Yi Ling and Ye Haiwei were not at home these past few days. When she moved back in, she only brought a few changes of clothes, leaving many things behind at their place. Ji Xiaowan decided that from now on, she would no longer live with them. So, after some thought, she went to their house that night, planning to move all her belongings out.

  Ji Xiaowan returned to her bedroom when they had not come back yet.

  Ji Xiaowan was packing her things and carelessly stuffed them into a large cloth bundle.

  Yi Ling and Ye Haiwei returned, the two seemed to have agreed, one after another, just a minute apart. When Yi Ling arrived at the door, Ye Haiwei was about to open it. The two brothers glared at each other fiercely at the door, then said nothing and entered the house separately.

  Ji Xiaowan carried her bag out of the bedroom, turning seven or eight corners to reach the door, and saw Ye Haiwei and others returning, with a stern face, coldly staring at them.

  Ji Xiaowan didn't say a word and just walked towards the door with her bag.

  Ye Haiyi and Yi Lingyue quickly intercepted her path.

  "Xiao Wan? What's wrong?" Ye Haiwei saw her holding her bag and knew she was planning to move back home, so he immediately became anxious.

  Ji Xiaowan ignored him and tried to take a detour, but no matter how she turned, they would block her way.

  Yi Ling was about to go crazy, "Xiao Wan, Xiao Wan! Say something! What did I do to offend you?"

  Ji Xiaowan still didn't speak and continued to take a detour, they kept blocking her way.

  They actually wanted to take her directly into the bedroom, but now none of them dare to touch her.

  Ji Xiaowan didn't like them touching her, and she even disliked pushing them away with her own hands. So she just took a detour, watching as they blocked her way. She would rather take the long way around than try to push through.

  Ji Xiaowan looked at them, her face twisted in anger, and stormed over to the sofa, throwing her bag onto it. Then she walked over to the bar, grabbed the remaining unbroken bottles from last time, and smashed them one by one onto the floor. Next, she ran into the kitchen, smashing all the pots and pans, utensils and everything else that was intact, until they were all broken into pieces. Finally, she stormed into the dining room, throwing vases and other objects to the ground, destroying the TV, and leaving the furniture in disarray.

  Those two just stood by and watched her show off, without stopping her or even saying a word.

  The two of them were actually quite uneasy in their hearts. They had never seen Ji Xiaowan throw things around like this before, and it seemed that she was really furious this time!

  Ji Xiaowan was so arrogant in their home, deliberately picking out things that looked expensive to destroy, and even ran into the room of the two of them, smashing the computers on their office desk.

  Two guys stood at their respective doorways, looking at the furniture scattered all over the floor inside, and they both winced in their hearts, but it wasn't for the damaged furniture. Instead, they were worried about Ji Xiaowan's hands, which were bright red, definitely injured by some kind of backlash.

  Ji Xiaowan walked up to them, but the two guys still refused to give way. She continued to be arrogant and went to the bathroom to turn on all the faucets, and also pulled out their quilts and soaked them in water.

  Their family was completely flooded with gold and jade.

  "Xiao Wan!" Yi Ling looked at her being angry for a long time, guessing that she should have calmed down by now. He spoke in a flattering tone, "Xiao Wan, just say something, or you can scold me if you want to!"

  Ji Xiaowan glared at Yi Ling and cursed, "Bastard, get out of the way. I don't want to see you guys again."

  It wasn't easy, but finally she spoke up, although it was a curse, they finally felt relieved.

  "Xiao Wan, if you want to scold me, then go ahead and scold me, but at least give me a reason! Otherwise, I won't even know where I went wrong."

  Ji Xiaowan didn't speak again, she walked around them and went to the sofa, picked up her bag and wanted to leave, but when she got to the door, she found that it couldn't be opened.

  Ye Haiwei smiled and said, "Xiao Wan, the fingerprint on this door has been reset by me. Now it can only be opened with a crystal key plate."

  She can't open the door, and Qixiaowei will never think of leaving their home.

  Ji Xiaowan was so angry that she threw her bag aside and sat down heavily on the sofa, continuing to remain silent.

  The two of them looked at her as she sat back on the sofa, no longer causing trouble. They obediently sat in front of her on the tea table, looking at her with only half a profile facing them.

  Yi Ling grabbed a handful of hair, really having no other choice. He pushed Ye Haiyi's arm, gesturing for him to speak up.

  Ye Haiyu received his message, he spoke up, "Xiao Wan, you don't want to tell us your troubles, so I'll ask you a few questions, you answer me carefully, okay? After I get the answers, I'll let you go."

  Ji Xiaowan just didn't look at him and let him talk.

  "Who are you mad at? Mad at Yeezy? Or mad at me?"

  "You two!" Ji Xiaowan replied without hesitation.

  Originally, Ye Haiyi thought she would say Yi Ling, but unexpectedly, even he was drawn in. A surge of anger rose up in Ye Haiyi's belly, feeling that he was actually being implicated.

  "Anger should always have a reason, you want to sentence us to death, at least let us know what crime we committed! You can't just beat us to death like this, can you?" Ye Haiwei said with a hint of provocation.

  "You don't keep your promises!"

  Ji Xiaowan said, Ye Haiyuan suddenly became angry, "We promised you things, and we've all done them. You say, you don't want us to touch you, so we won't touch you. You also think about it, these past few days, you've been living in our house, when have we ever made things difficult for you?" Just as Ye Haiyuan finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something and continued, "Are you still angry about the thing with Yi Lian last week when he kissed you?"

  Ji Xiaowan's face suddenly turned red, but it was from anger. "I didn't mean that!"

  "What's going on?" Yi Ling hastily asked, he was really anxious.

  Ji Xiaowan glared at Yi Ling and said, "You promised me that you wouldn't lay a hand on Zhan Xiang again, but your words are worthless. Today, you've injured him once more. Can the promises you make to me only be kept when we're face-to-face, but broken behind my back?"

  Yi Ling listened and suddenly became angry, turning his head to glare at Ye Hai Wei, saying "Ye Hai Wei! Is this your doing?"

  Ye Haiwei also blew up and turned back to glare at him, "The matter with Zhan Xiang is your responsibility. You didn't handle things well yourself, how can you still shift the blame onto me?"

  Yi Ling got angry, "You must be the one who stabbed me in the back and wanted to drive a wedge between me and Xiao Wan. You secretly sent someone to beat up Zhan Xiang, didn't you!"

  "Damn it, am I that despicable?" Ye Haiwei couldn't help but curse, "I, Ye Haiwei, have always been a man of my word. What I do, I acknowledge myself. I'm confident in openly and fairly winning Xiao Wan's heart, no need to use such tactics on you!"

  When he uses underhanded tactics against Yi Ling, it means he's about to lose. Ye Haiyi will never admit that his strength is inferior to Yi Ling's, so he will absolutely not use those divisive and underhanded tactics on him.

  Yi Ling thought for a moment and felt that Ye Haiyu wasn't wrong, guessing that this matter was indeed not done by him.

  "It wasn't you who did it, was it me? Zhan Xiang has been dealing with the transfer procedures for the past two days. I don't need to send someone to beat him up again. My time is very precious and I won't do something that's not worth the effort."

  Yi Ling and Ye Haiwei both said so, but Ji Xiaowan's face still didn't relax.

  "Xiao Wan," Yi Ling said with a hint of frustration, "don't you believe what I'm saying?"

  Ji Xiaowan simply wouldn't speak, and they couldn't do anything about it.

  Yi Ling got angry, because of Ji Xiao Wan's distrust, he was so angry that he almost went crazy, his whole body started shaking with rage. Yi Ling glared at Ji Xiao Wan with a fierce gaze and spat out a few words, "Really... really want to directly force you."

  Yi Ling said, Ye Hai Yu hastily elbowed him, and his anger was reduced by three points.

  Yi Ling stood up, facing Ye Haiwei and said, "I'll give you ten minutes. If you can't pry her mouth open, let me do it." After finishing speaking, he stormed into the room, slamming the door shut behind him, then glared at the clock, counting down the seconds.

  Ye Haiwei let out a deep breath, and at the moment when Yi Ling closed the door, he also glanced at the time before raising his head to look at Ji Xiaowan and saying, "Xiaowan, tell me about what happened back then."

  Ji Xiaowan saw Yi Ling leave, she slightly softened her tone and said after a moment of silence, "After school today, Zhan Xiang said he would send me home."

  Ye Hai's ears perked up and his mouth twitched a few times, clearly annoyed, but he didn't explode in anger, instead waiting for her to continue speaking.

  "When Zhanhui and I returned to the crossroads, five or six hooligan students blocked our way and beat up Zhanhui. But later on, Zhanhui still managed to chase them away, however, he was seriously injured. Don't you admit that this is something you've done?"

  Ye Hai only heard her question and didn't answer directly. Instead, he asked around in circles, "Xiao Wan, have you been back home to live these past few days? Not living with us?"

  "Hmm. Anyway, since you're not coming back, I don't need to stay hidden here either."

  "Alright."

  This girl really dislikes them, and whenever she gets a chance, she wants to run away from them, treating them like germs!

  "Xiao Wan, are those people who blocked you from our school?"

  "No! Their school uniform, I've never seen it."

  That is to say, those students are neither A high nor B high.

  One thing is for sure, the person who blocked Ji Xiaowan was absolutely not a rogue, because in these few days, Ye Haiwei had almost taken over half of Qing City's territory, and those who hadn't been taken over were forced to flee by Ye Haiwei's people, with no way to spare any thought for Ji Xiaowan.

  It seems those people were just ordinary high school students after all.

  As for those high school students, who are they? Which school are they from? Not clear at all!

  Ye Hai thought for a moment before asking again, "Xiao Wan, are you certain that their target was Xuan Yang and not you?"

  Ye Haiwei's question made Ji Xiaowan stunned.

  Ji Xiaowan lowered her head and began to ponder, as if vaguely feeling that those people were indeed not targeting Zhan Xiang.

  Why did those people block her way home instead of blocking Xuan's way home?

  Ji Xiaowan's silence was tantamount to giving Ye Haiyi an answer.

  "Actually, you're not sure who they were after either! Alright, Xiaowei, give me some time to investigate, okay? Once I find out who made a move on you or Xianxiang, I'll catch that person and let them have it from you, how about that?"

  Ji Xiaowan was silently pondering, and after waiting for a long time, she didn't see her nodding. Although Ye Haiyuan could tell that the little girl was already hesitating about whether to believe them or not.

  At this time, Yi Ling stormed out of the room with a furious expression, standing beside the tea table and staring at Ji Xiaowan, saying, "How about it? Has that little mouth been pried open? If not, I have plenty of ways to do it."

  Yi Ling said, Ji Xiaowan's whole body was chilled, she shifted her position back a bit.

  Ye Hai smiled and said, "I'll go tidy up." After that, he made way for Yi Ling.

  The little girl has been arrogant enough, indeed needs some lessons! This task, just leave it to Yi Ling to do.

  Ye Haiyu rolled up her sleeves and tidied up the furniture in the room that was smashed by Ji Xiaowan.

  Yi Ling suddenly sat down beside Ji Xiaowan, who quickly shifted her body and looked at him warily.

  Yi Ling cracked open a row of white teeth and smiled at her, "Xiao Wan?"

  Yi Ling called out her name, and Ji Xiaowan's whole body trembled, "I... I won't go back. I'll wait for you to investigate the matter clearly before making a decision."

  "Hmm... How did you give in so quickly?"

  He's so fed up that he's about to die! Now he just wishes she would be more stubborn! If she were more stubborn, he'd have an excuse to take action!

  Ye Hai only heard Ji Xiao Wan's words and laughed again, shouting at Yi Ling, "Kid, don't you hurry up to pack your things?"

  Yi Ling sighed deeply and reluctantly went over to help with the packing.

  Ji Xiaowan sat motionless on the sofa, letting them clean up, without a hint of remorse. After all, they were the ones who wronged her first, and she had only thrown a small tantrum, which wasn't excessive.

  The two brothers stopped fighting, and Chuang Xuan and Ta Xiao also instantly gained relief. They began to reorganize their own forces, desperately speeding up their pace, using the most violent means to prop up their own forces, lest the two brothers fight again, without strength, they will definitely lose!

  Yi Ling and Ye Haiwei didn't bother them again on the way back, and the next day, accompanied Xi Xiaojuan to attend classes quietly.

  Zhan Xiang was originally supposed to leave next Monday, but yesterday he got hurt again. His parents saw it and didn't say a word, directly packing him up and taking him away the next day. Zhan Xiang didn't even have the chance to say goodbye to Ji Xiaowan, and could only send a simple "goodbye" text message on his phone before leaving.

  Ji Xiaowan knew that Zhan Xiang would have to leave eventually, and she even felt that the sooner he left, the better. Only then did she feel that Zhan Xiang was truly safe.

  As for what happened that night, Ji Xiaowan wasn't in a hurry to get an answer. After all, these two brothers had their ways and would eventually find out, giving her an explanation.

  Ji Xiaowan could think this way, in fact, it means that she believed Yi Ling and Ye Haiwei's words, she believes that this thing should not be done by them.
