My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 119: Grinding Teeth_1
“Boss Ye, wait a moment.”

Sun Jian hurried over and said anxiously, “I’ve told you everything, that’s enough, right?”

“Actually, it was a mysterious person who called me to report the crime. I have his phone number, but I don’t know who he is.”

“You dispatched the police to make arrests without confirming the caller’s name and identity, and you got quite a payoff, didn’t you?”

“He sent me a few hundred bucks.”

“Your sister’s few hundred bucks, that’s not even enough to cover a night’s stay with a girl,” Ye Xiong slapped him on the head.

“Ye Xiong, no hitting people,” warned Luo Weiwei.

“It was only a little over a thousand.” Sun Jian hurriedly stepped back, touching his head where he had been hit, without any hint of anger.

“Give me the phone number,” Ye Xiong demanded angrily.

Sun Jian obediently left the number, then left sulkily.

After Sun Jian left, Ye Xiong saw Luo Weiwei staring fiercely at him and asked in bewilderment, “Why are you glaring at me?”

“Addicted to pulling, are you?”

Only then did Ye Xiong realize that he still held Luo Weiwei’s delicate little hand. He quickly let go, chuckling, “Weiwei, thanks for the help, Tiger. You gave this fox a chance to show off.”

Luo Weiwei rolled her eyes, thinking you think I want to, pretend to be a tiger so the fox can dominate. It’s still better than you setting the police on fire.

In her eyes, Ye Xiong was like a ticking time bomb, ready to explode any day.

He took out his phone, entered the number he got from Sun Jian, and made the call.

When he saw the name of the person associated with that number in his contacts, Ye Xiong’s face instantly changed.

The owner of the number was none other than He Mengji.

Could it be that He Mengji was the one behind the conspiracy of this whole affair?

“Why did you think to call me?” came He Mengji’s gentle voice from the other side.

“Miss Meng Ji, I thank you for your help, saving my hotel from disaster,” Ye Xiong said with a clenched jaw and a forced smile.

“You’re welcome. I also thank you for telling me who the murderer of my brother is.”

Ye Xiong had no idea that on the other end of the phone, He Mengji was smiling with grinding teeth just like him.

“Next time I can be of use, I’ll treat you to dinner.”

“I will certainly grace you with my presence.”

“I wish you good luck.”

“I wish you safety.”

After hanging up the phone, Luo Weiwei sighed and said, “He Mengji is truly not a simple character; it looks like you’re going to have trouble in the future.”

“If she wants to play, I’ll play along,” Ye Xiong cursed.

Fuhua Grand Hotel, CEO’s office.

He Mengji’s eyes were fixated on the computer screen in front of her, a video running that made her blood boil.

The video was secretly filmed in a forest. It clearly captured the moment her brother’s head was blown off by a gunshot from Ye Xiong, though it only showed his back. Still, He Mengji could vaguely tell that the man was Ye Xiong.

“I almost believed you, I didn’t expect you to be this kind of person,” He Mengji ground her teeth with hatred, saying coldly, “I will avenge this grudge no matter what.”

In some dark, underground place.

Angel stood in front of the Green-Eyed Monster, reporting, “Master, I’ve sent the video we took on-site to He Mengji anonymously. We went to great lengths to shoot that video; she’ll definitely think it’s real. Now, she must believe that the killer of her brother is Ye Xiong and will surely take her revenge on him.”

“As long as they fight each other, we have more time to complete our remaining tasks,” the Green-Eyed Monster said.

“Master, why don’t you just kill them and end it once and for all?” Angel asked with curiosity.

“Both of these individuals are no ordinary people, and even if we killed them, we would be greatly weakened. Instead of doing so, it’s better to wait for them to fight each other. By then, we can reap the benefits like a fisherman.”

“Master is wise.”

“The higher-ups have already given us our final deadline, demanding that we capture all targets within a month. The toy list has been leaked, and now many of them are secretly protected by the police. We are under a lot of pressure. We cannot afford to fail on this mission; otherwise, I wouldn’t know how to explain it to them.”

“Master, we will definitely complete the mission on time.”

That evening, Ye Xiong returned home, took a bath, and was preparing to go out when he happened to see Yang Xinyi coming in from outside.

“Wife, why are you back so early tonight? Didn’t you have to work overtime?” Ye Xiong asked.

“No.”

Yang Xinyi took a look at him. Noticing his sharp attire and neatly combed hair, she asked, “All dressed up in your finery, where are you off to?”

“There’s a party at the hotel, and I’m going to attend it,” Ye Xiong replied.

“Has the problem with your hotel been resolved?” Yang Xinyi curiously asked.

“You know what your man is like, tough all over. There’s nothing I can’t handle,” Ye Xiong said while thrusting out his behind.

“Wait for me.”

“What for?”

“I’ll go with you.”

“You’re coming too?” Ye Xiong thought he had misheard.

She had always detested his circle and didn’t like going out with him because she didn’t want others to know she was his wife. Why the sudden change of heart?

“Is that a problem? You don’t like it?”

Like it? No way. He would already have his hands full with Luo Weiwei and Sister Hua there. If his wife were to join them, it would be as chaotic as a three-sided battle.

Women were born jealous creatures, and he was not that foolish.

“If my wife wishes to go, I am more than willing, only… you know, bars and such places are murky and chaotic with smoking, drinking, and foul language. A bunch of roughnecks, not all of them are as refined as your husband. I’m afraid you might not be used to it,” Ye Xiong said with a smile.

“You’re afraid I’ll ruin your fun, aren’t you?” Yang Xinyi’s mouth twitched.

“What fun could I possibly have? If you want to go, then I’ll wait for you.”

Yang Xinyi went upstairs, and after a while, she came back down.

She wore a black dress and black high heels, standing tall and slender, exquisitely beautiful. She looked incredibly fashionable, even more stunning than the female models in fashion magazines.

As she gracefully descended the stairs, she was so radiant, so captivating that one could not take their eyes off her.

“Let’s go!” Yang Xinyi said lightly as she walked up to him.

Ye Xiong swallowed hard. Although he had seen Yang Xinyi in the nude several times, she was like an ice sculpture that one never tired of observing. Each time she appeared, she gave him an unparalleled shock.

He reached over and took Yang Xinyi’s hand.

Yang Xinyi’s body jolted slightly. She thought of pulling away, but in the end, she let him lead her.

The two of them walked out of the villa together, silent, heading toward the garage.

Once they reached the garage, Ye Xiong reluctantly let go of her hand and said, “Give me the keys.”

Yang Xinyi handed over the Porsche keys.

A luxury car, a beautiful woman—what more could one ask for in life!

Ye Xiong drove off, speeding away.

All the way, Yang Xinyi remained silent, and so did Ye Xiong, each with their own thoughts.

“Wife, when we get there, how should I introduce you to my colleagues?” Ye Xiong asked.
