Chapter 108: Chapter 108

Upon hearing that Xiao Shuo was causing trouble for Manlang, Xiao Linye felt a surge of delight. After all, in a way, that woman from Manlang had indeed played them. The Xiao family had already made things right concerning their personal grievances, but her later use of reducing the penalty fee as an excuse was clearly intentional! He didn’t want to deal with this matter...! But now, hearing this young lady repeatedly calling someone a ’pervert’ made his head throb with anger. "Their studio has moved to the floor above yours?"

It had to be said, at this moment, Xiao Shuo was finally doing something reliable in Xiao Linye’s eyes. That woman, she deserved to be taught a lesson!

Ye Yuning was unaware of what Xiao Linye was thinking and nodded. "Yeah, we run into each other in the elevator three times a day, always clashing upon sight. You haven’t seen how despicable that entitled jerk looks when he sides with his current flame against his ex."

Speaking of Xiao Shuo, Ye Yuning didn’t have a single good word to say about him!

In her earlier moment of impulsiveness, she had knocked the guy down and felt quite relieved.

But now, she looked up cautiously.

Assessing Xiao Linye, her eyes filled with concern. "What are you doing here? If that entitled jerk finds out it was you who bailed me out, he’ll surely spread rumors to that pervert, Boss Qi, right?"

Her initial words of concern made Xiao Linye feel a bit better.

But her latter reference to the ’pervert, Boss Qi’ made his expression turn cold once again.

"It doesn’t matter," Xiao Linye said.

Hearing him say it didn’t matter, Ye Yuning also let out a sigh of relief.

She knew all too well what kind of person Xiao Shuo was. That guy was the type to hold grudges!

He was the only one allowed to bully others; nobody could fight back. If they did, they’d suffer retaliation.

But thinking that Xiao Linye probably had a certain status within the Xiao family and wouldn’t be afraid of him, she felt reassured.

"And what about your boss? You’ve stood up for her, she’s not in trouble, is she?!"

"Our boss is fine." When has her boss ever been the one in trouble when clashing with Xiao Shuo? It was always that scoundrel Xiao Shuo who either called his parents or the police; he just couldn’t handle a loss.

Xiao Linye then asked, "Cutting off cooperation with the Xiao family must have had a big impact on her business, right?"

Thinking about that woman’s previous willfulness, he really hoped she would face setbacks in her business. She was too arrogant! He had never met such a difficult woman! The Nanjia Peak cooperation was quite urgent for them back then, and she kept dragging it out. A woman like that deserved a lesson or two!

When it came to whether the cooperation faced setbacks, Ye Yuning shook her head. "The impact isn’t significant."

"Not a significant impact?"

Xiao Linye was shocked!

Ye Yuning glanced at him, mistaking his expression for worry about her work.

Since he was her husband, she didn’t really want to keep anything from him.

She nodded. "After the cooperation with the Xiao family was terminated, her boss immediately signed a project with Blue Island. Now, there are major projects under discussion in Luozhou, so there’s no significant impact."

In short, after breaking off the cooperation with the Xiao family, things were smooth sailing for her boss!

Without those annoying interactions, she now basically had the energy to consider other useful collaborations.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Linye felt his chest tighten... his emotions surging uncontrollably!

He’d really underestimated that woman; even after breaking ties with the Xiao family, she still had the ability to sign those big deals.

"In the future, don’t always get involved in her problems. You’re just a gofer," he said, his tone not particularly kind.

At that moment, Ye Yuning sensed the emotion in his voice, but she didn’t quite understand where it was coming from.

Looking at him with some confusion, she thought he might be concerned that she could get hurt and decided not to say anything.

It never crossed her mind that he could be dissatisfied with Manlang’s boss.

「Meanwhile!」

After Ye Yuning left, Xiao Shuo waited for nearly two hours. Around noon, Lai Shuo finally arrived, fashionably late.

Lai Shuo saw the dried blood all over Xiao Shuo’s face and could hardly bear to look directly at it!

He signed the bail form and got him released.

The moment Xiao Shuo walked out, he couldn’t help but curse Ye Yuning furiously, "How did I end up with such a bitch? She’s nothing but a shrew!"

Lai Shuo: "..."

"I’ve hardly seen her since we got engaged. How can she have the nerve to hit me!"

Lai Shuo’s mouth twitched, and he couldn’t help but give Xiao Shuo another look, this time a mix of amusement and sympathy.

"You mean, you get hit every single time you meet her?"

Xiao Shuo: "..."

At this remark, Xiao Shuo’s demeanor instantly turned frigid.

Ye Yuning’s name flashed through his mind, and he clenched his teeth in hatred.

Although it sounded bad, looking back, it was true that every time he met Ye Yuning, he really did get beaten.

"I’ll get back at her sooner or later!" Xiao Shuo gritted his teeth angrily.

Who the hell said men don’t hit women? How was that fair? Didn’t they know that sometimes the woman was the abuser? Not being allowed to fight back was simply an intolerable injustice! Especially someone like Ye Yuning; she needed a good beating to make her behave.

Speaking of retaliation, Lai Shuo raised an eyebrow at him. "You still dare to mess with her?"

From what Lai Shuo had personally witnessed lately, it seemed Xiao Shuo hadn’t gained the upper hand even once. He was always beaten quite miserably.
