Chapter 261 - 189: A Slap in the Face

Chapter 261: Chapter 189: A Slap in the Face

Xia Bin grew up in a wealthy family, so he wasn’t very good at cursing. But even his clumsy insults were enough to infuriate Gao Yue!

"Fucking bullshit!"

Gao Yue shot up and slapped Xia Bin across the face!

’If Miss Xu is a country bumpkin, then your mother belongs in a brothel.’

SLAP! Everyone was stunned!

Chen Xiao quickly stood up, afraid Xia Bin would fly into a rage and retaliate against Gao Yue!

Xia Bin had never been slapped like this in his entire life. Not even his parents had ever dared to lay a hand on him!

To top it all off, after slapping him, Gao Yue took out a wet wipe with a look of disgust, cleaned her hand, and muttered, "What rotten luck. Can’t even have afternoon tea without running into a dumbass!"

Lin Ya had already walked over. "What’s going on?"

Xia Bin had told her he knew the people sitting by the window and wanted to ask them to move. Lin Ya, thinking it would be nice to switch, had agreed to let him go talk to them.

Who knew that moments later, a slap would land right on Xia Bin’s face? Things had clearly gotten out of control.

Xia Bin’s face was twisted in a terrifying grimace, but it would be overestimating his courage to think he would actually fight back.

The richer they are, the more they fear death. He just wasn’t a fighter.

He clutched his face, his expression furious, looking like he wanted to eat Chen Xiao and Gao Yue alive. Yet he just stood there, completely at a loss.

"Pathetic!" Gao Yue sneered.

Lin Ya frowned. "Miss, are you going to keep insulting him after hitting him without so much as an apology?"

Gao Yue retorted, "I hit him because he was asking for it. We were just having tea, and he came over to provoke us. Who else was I supposed to slap?"

’Provocation?’ Lin Ya looked at Xia Bin, confused. ’I thought you were just going over to negotiate since you knew them?’

Xia Bin seemed a little afraid of her. He said angrily, "I went to talk to them nicely, but she was rude and said filthy things about you."

Lin Ya said coolly, "This is between you all. Don’t drag me into it!"

Gao Yue’s ears perked up. ’Oh, so there’s a story here.’ She immediately asked, "Aren’t you his fiancée?"

Hearing this, Lin Ya turned and shot Xia Bin a displeased look. "President Xia, in public, we are merely business partners. Don’t speak so carelessly!"

’Ooh.’ Gao Yue looked at Xia Bin mockingly. ’Just a moment ago, he was acting all high and mighty, as if having such a beautiful fiancée meant he’d reached the pinnacle of his life!’

’Bragging about it everywhere, but now it looks like the lady in question doesn’t acknowledge it at all!’

Xia Bin’s face flushed red. In his desperation, he blurted out, "She just said you could only be this punk’s Xiao Si, that you couldn’t even get in line to be his number three!"

Lin Ya shot him a contemptuous glance. "President Xia, please mind your decorum!"

’Arguing like a child, bickering like a shrew in the street!’

Then she turned to Chen Xiao and Gao Yue. "As for me being his Xiao Si, it’s not entirely out of the question... provided he has the skills. Who knows, maybe I’d strip naked and climb into your bed of my own free will!"

"But if he doesn’t have the skills... Plenty of pathetic men have groveled before me like dogs, and I’ve kicked them until their faces were bloody!"

Chen Xiao gave a faint smile. ’She’s got character!’ He decided not to hold anything against Lin Ya. She was clearly not on the same path as Xia Bin.

’As for Xia Bin... Gao Yue already slapped him. I won’t strike him physically, but I will destroy him mentally!’

He smiled at Lin Ya and said, "You’d better be careful. If you climb into my bed, you won’t be getting out of it so easily."

’He hadn’t wanted to flirt with her. It would be awkward if she ended up becoming his subordinate.’

’But to get under Xia Bin’s skin, he couldn’t resist a flirtatious jab. ’Ha, climb into my bed? My ’long spear’ is invincible!’’

’An Endurance of 107... with that, I could charge in and out of Changban Slope seven times without breaking a sweat!’

Gao Yue chimed in, "President Lin, is it? You’d better watch out before you get into his bed. I might be in line already, and you can’t cut! Hehe!"

Lin Ya huffed. ’How could she possibly win an argument against a man and a female rogue?’ she thought. She turned to Xia Bin. "President Xia, let’s go somewhere else."

With that, she turned and walked out without waiting for Xia Bin to agree.

Seeing this, Xia Bin hurried after her, tossing a threat back at Chen Xiao over his shoulder. "Do you have the guts to tell me your name and where you work? Just you wait!"

Chen Xiao replied coolly, "My name is Chen Xiao. Dr. Feng’s Robot."

"Fine! You just wait!" He took the excuse to save face and quickly chased after Lin Ya.

’As he walked, he kept thinking about Chen Xiao. ’Why does that name sound so familiar?’’

’Suddenly, he remembered chatting with Xu Jia the other day. She had called her friend Zhao Xiangjun’s boyfriend, and he was pretty sure his name was Chen Xiao!’

’What a coincidence!’ Suddenly, old and new hatreds surged within him.

’So, it’s Chen Xiao, an employee at Dr. Feng’s Robot, is it? Just you wait. I’ll make sure you lose your job!’

’Once you’re unemployed, let’s see if your sales clerk girlfriend will still support you!’

’When a man loses his income, let’s see how arrogant you can be!’

As for Gao Yue? He blamed Chen Xiao for everything.

Gao Yue sat back down and said to Chen Xiao, "Don’t be angry. It’s pointless to argue with an idiot."

"Also, what I said about being a mistress was just to provoke him. Don’t take it seriously, okay? With your small frame, you shouldn’t bite off more than you can chew!"

’My small frame?’ This was the first time anyone had ever questioned him in that department.

He glanced at Gao Yue’s glamorous figure and sneered inwardly. ’Your ’small frame’ is even less impressive than Lin Ya’s. She wouldn’t be able to get out of bed; you’d probably need complete bed rest!’

’He knew Gao Yue had always seen him as Xu Wu’s kept boyfriend, a boy toy living off her. She had only defended him for Xu Wu’s sake; deep down, she probably wasn’t afraid of him at all.’

Gao Yue was fiddling with her phone, messaging who-knows-who. A moment later, Chen Xiao’s phone rang.

He glanced at the caller ID—it was Xu Wu.

"So, President Chen, is the company not big enough to hold you? Had to go out and pick a fight with someone?"

’He knew Gao Yue must have been messaging Xu Wu to report what happened. Of course. Her best friend’s boyfriend gets into a fight, and she steps up like a hero to save the day—a story like that had to be shared immediately.’
