Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her
Chapter 121

Chapter 121: Chapter 121

Another 500!

She really acts like the money isn’t hers, fining people however she pleases? Why doesn’t this woman just drop dead?

But facing her, with those old-maid glasses she wore, the words on the tip of his tongue were fiercely swallowed back.

Yang Jing asked, "Still not going?"

Fine, I’ll endure!

Damn it, on my very first day of work, I’m fined 1,500 straight away. Do they really want to starve me to death?

Xiao Shuo felt rebellious, but remembering that his cards had all been frozen, he had no choice but to bow his head.

To make matters worse, Ye Tong kept calling incessantly. He exploded the moment he stepped out.

Picking up the phone, he roared with annoyance, "What do you want?"

Ye Tong was stunned by the yelling on the other end of the line!

After all, ever since she had secured the Nanjia Peak project, Xiao Shuo had always been very polite to her.

Even after their previously harsh breakup, he had obediently returned to her side.

But now, what was this attitude?

"Who upset you? Why are you so furious?" Ye Tong asked, reining in her own temper.

Xiao Shuo replied, "It’s nothing. Shouldn’t you be busy right now? Why are you calling?"

"It’s that Ye Yuning again! She even admitted her relationship with your Seventh Uncle. She’s such a tramp! How could you have ever been engaged to someone like her?"

As soon as she started talking about Ye Yuning, Ye Tong completely lost her composure.

Previously, in front of Xiao Shuo and Zheng Cai, she would at least put on an act, but now she couldn’t even be bothered.

When Xiao Shuo heard it was about Ye Yuning again, he snapped, "Alright, alright! Why bring up that jinx first thing in the morning?"

It was because of Ye Yuning that he was fined 500 today!

The day had started off badly, and it led to two more 500 fines later. The mere thought of it pained him.

And speaking of money, Xiao Shuo remembered his car was out of gas!

After some thought, he finally, somewhat reluctantly, asked, "Um, can you lend me 10,000?"

"What?"

Hearing this, Ye Tong thought she must have misheard. Xiao Shuo asking her for money?

He was a member of the Xiao Family!

Even if his was the branch of the Xiao Family least favored by Elder Xiao, a mosquito’s leg is still meat, isn’t it?

Why would he need to borrow money?

Xiao Shuo said, "I’ll explain the details when we have lunch. Just send it to my WeChat for now."

Ye Tong: "..."

This time, she heard him clearly. Xiao Shuo was indeed asking her for money.

He was actually borrowing money.

Her breathing suddenly grew heavy.

"No, you..."

"Jeez, are you lending it or not?" Seeing Ye Tong about to drone on with pointless questions, Xiao Shuo lost his patience.

Ye Tong couldn’t believe Xiao Shuo genuinely needed to borrow money.

She felt displeased, but given their current relationship, she still reluctantly conceded, "Alright, I’ll send it to you right away."

"Xiao Shuo, who gave you permission to make phone calls during work hours?" A stern female voice came from his end.

Ye Tong’s pupils constricted sharply.

Before she could ask anything, Xiao Shuo had already hung up.

And Ye Tong, listening to the dial tone, her expression turned extremely grim.

What did she mean, no phone calls at work? Xiao Shuo had gone to work? Where had he gone to work?

Could it be that the Xiao Family had fallen so low that its members actually needed to work for a living?

Thinking this, Ye Tong felt completely unsettled, but she still transferred the 10,000 to him.

Meanwhile, at the Xiao Corporation, Xiao Shuo was being dressed down like a child by Yang Jing over that single phone call.

She snapped, "I don’t care what your status was before, or what kind of young master you were. Now, you listen to me! You are Xiao Shuo from the Expansion Department. My department doesn’t pay 3,000 a month to coddle idlers! You better deliver some results, or I’ll make you eat dirt!"

Xiao Shuo: "..."

Hearing this, his pupils narrowed sharply as he looked up at Yang Jing.

He had never endured such humiliation, not even now when all his cards were frozen.

But facing this Yang Jing, Xiao Shuo instantly rebelled. "Fuck it, I quit!"

How can their family’s company have such a psycho? It’s so damn disgusting!

Without sparing a glance for Yang Jing’s thunderous expression, Xiao Shuo tore off his work badge, slammed it violently onto the ground, and stormed towards the elevator.

「In the CEO’s office」

Xiao Linye was just about to head to a meeting.

Just then, Lai Shuo received a phone call and quickly stopped him.

"Sir, there’s a problem."

"What is it?"

"The Third Young Master ran off!"

Xiao Linye: "..." Hearing this, a chill flashed in his eyes.

When Lai Shuo received this call, he felt an immense headache coming on.

He had heard while abroad that this Third Young Master was completely out of line.

And now he’d actually run off? This was simply too much.

Xiao Linye closed his eyes, a dangerous glint within them, then said, "Call Xiao Li. He’ll handle it!"

As for this Xiao Shuo, Xiao Linye was also seething with anger.

What on earth was going on with him and Ye Yuning? Not long ago, they’d been dragged to the police station, yet this morning they were seen laughing and chatting together?

It just didn’t add up.

But the image of them talking and laughing so casually kept replaying in his mind, impossible to shake off.

After giving his instructions, Xiao Linye picked up his phone, turned back to his office, and dialed Ye Yuning’s number.
