Chapter 102: That Simple?! Su Qingying knew this middle-aged man. In fact, listening to his voice over the call earlier, she had vaguely felt it sounded familiar. But there were far too many people with similar voices. More to the point, listening to the two of them talk, she could tell Wu Chen truly was threatening the other party, and murder and arson had come up. So she had absolutely not dared to imagine the man on the line was someone she knew. Her impression of him had never been a bad…-

Chapter 101: Two Hundred Million—No, Three Hundred Million! Different temperaments called for different methods, and different preparations. That said, Wu Chen hadn't kept the call open for this middle-aged man's benefit. The person on the other end was Su Qingying. He needed her to hear the contents of the conversation, and Li Ruobing, sitting beside her, would hear it too. The middle-aged man's face changed, and changed again. He had threatened to kill someone, and he had no idea who the…

Chapter 100: Wu Chen, Threatened and Tempted "Do you have a private room?" Wu Chen asked the hostess the moment they were through the door. "We do, sir. May I ask whether you have a reservation?" The hostess smiled, though her expression was a little odd. Today was strange. It was already dark out, and yet the customers had suddenly multiplied. In the last hour or two several more parties had come in, and every one of them had asked for a large private room. Like Jinfu Teahouse, Qingyuan Teahouse…

Chapter 099: Usurp Her Father's Power? Li Ruobing sat up straight and looked at Wu Chen with no expression on her face. In his lap, Su Qingying straightened as well. He raised a hand and patted her back, and she stood. She, too, looked at him without expression. Both women had heard the whole of the call. They knew what Wu Chen had said and what the other man had said. And… that was it? Six lines? Neither of them, of course, had been able to make out what the exchange actually meant or…

Chapter 098: The Second Option Su Qingying had listened to nearly the whole exchange between Wu Chen and Li Ruobing in a daze. Not that she'd understood none of it. When Wu Chen said things like kneel and not make things difficult for her, she didn't know the story behind them, but she could follow the plain meaning. Mostly she was lost because she had no idea what the two of them were arguing about. What had been said at the start? Something about Wu Chen making trouble, and Li Ruobing…

Chapter 097: Wu Chen! What Are You Doing? Don't Mess Around! Su Qingying had come over to act spoiled. Of course she knew his anger earlier had been a performance. But her golf really was hopeless, and she didn't know how much of the truth had been in his calling her stupid—whether that was what he genuinely thought, and he'd simply said the thing out loud. Smack! A crisp sound. Wu Chen had reached back and swatted her backside. "Are you an idiot? Would I actually say that about you?" He…

Chapter 096: Honey, Am I Really That Stupid? Madam Su's tone had gone soft in the space of a breath. She didn't know when her daughter had struck up a friendship with Li Ruobing, or why Li Ruobing had been willing to give up an entire day to persuading and counseling her. A friendship like that, taken on its own, was a good thing for the Su family. A very good thing. And now it looked as though her daughter's friendship with Li Ruobing might not survive, and on top of that she herself might have…

Chapter 095: How Did Things Somehow Turn Into This? Done. The instant Madam Su rose to defend her daughter and rounded on Wu Chen in anger, Wu Chen had it done. Because the moment she took that stance, it placed Su Qingying on the opposite side from him. She was defending a daughter who had been bullied and insulted. Which meant she would never again suspect that anything had passed between Wu Chen and Su Qingying. He had mocked and insulted Su Qingying to her face, after all, without the…

Chapter 094: You Were Teaching Our Miss to Play Golf Li Ruobing's expression truly should have changed. Because she was Wu Chen's nominal girlfriend. She had also just been arguing from the position that the two of them together were helping Su Qingying. So on hearing Madam Su say that Wu Chen had struck Su Qingying's bottom on the golf course, her expression should have changed. She should have turned on Wu Chen and demanded an answer on the spot. That was the normal reaction of a…

Chapter 093: No Need for Thanks It was Li Ruobing who had sent Wu Chen to take Su Qingying away. That was Madam Su's guess, and she felt it was probably right—otherwise there was no explaining Li Ruobing's current attitude. So she asked it outright. "Madam Su, first I need to correct your wording." Seated across from her, Li Ruobing spoke with perfect composure. "My boyfriend did not forcibly take your daughter anywhere. Miss Qingying and I had arranged to meet. Something came up for me at the last…
