Divine Doctor and His CEO Wife-Chapter 39: Is There No End?
What in the world...
Isn’t Zhang Yaoyang Lu Wushuang’s guest of honor? Then why did Lu Wushuang just slap him and send him flying?
Gao Xiong was stunned too. Could it be that Lu Wushuang’s honored guest wasn’t Zhang Yaoyang, but... Chen Xiao?
In the ensuing deathly silence, Lu Wushuang approached Chen Xiao with a kind smile. "Junior Brother, how do you want to deal with these two?"
Chen Xiao forced a smile. "Senior Sister, you’re so unreliable. You invited me to this banquet, but I didn’t even have an invitation and got bullied on top of it."
"I will give you a satisfactory explanation," Lu Wushuang said, enunciating each word. She then turned her head and stared at Gao Xiong. "Get over here!"
Recovering from his stupor, Gao Xiong scrambled over and fell to his knees with a THUD!
He finally understood. He had been a fool, thinking himself clever, but he had misunderstood everything! Chen Xiao was the mysterious guest of honor he was supposed to treat with the utmost respect!
Cold sweat trickled down his forehead.
"Young Master... Young Master Chen, I was wrong! I was blind! Please, be the bigger man and don’t hold this against me!" he begged desperately, slapping his own face repeatedly.
"I warned you to ask my Senior Sister and confirm my identity. Why didn’t you listen? Why did you keep barking like a dog?" Chen Xiao’s voice was icy. "Your stupidity is grating!"
As he spoke, he kicked Gao Xiong, knocking him out cold.
"Take him away," Lu Wushuang waved her hand, and her men dragged Gao Xiong off like a dead dog. Clearly, such a brainless fool should never be put in an important position. Who knows what kind of trouble he’d cause me in the future.
At that moment, Zhang Yaoyang staggered to his feet, clutching his red, swollen face. He bellowed fiercely, "Lu Wushuang, what is the meaning of this!"
"And who are you?" Lu Wushuang raised an eyebrow.
"Wh-What?" Zhang Yaoyang was dumbfounded. "You don’t know who I am? Weren’t you the one who invited me? I am Zhang Yaoyang, the Vice President of Gaotong Group’s Jiangnan Branch! How dare you lay a hand on me! Don’t you want to cooperate with Gaotong Group anymore?"
"Oh, the name rings a bell," Lu Wushuang said coldly. "You caused a scene at my banquet. I will have Gaotong Group deal with you later. As for a little karami like you, you’re not important enough for Gaotong Group to sever ties with me over."
"Throw him out!" Lu Wushuang waved her hand again, and another group of men began dragging Zhang Yaoyang away. Struggling, Zhang Yaoyang lost a shoe, looking as wretched as a stray dog while he continued to curse loudly.
Before he could finish, Chen Xiao stepped forward and seized his throat. "Your mouth stinks."
"Mmph—" Zhang Yaoyang felt his mouth being clamped shut by Chen Xiao. A powerful force struck, shattering his teeth!
"Aaargh!" Zhang Yaoyang screamed, spitting out a mouthful of blood and broken teeth. It was a gruesome sight. With his mouth now full of holes, he could only let out muffled, enraged howls.
"There. Now that filthy mouth of yours can’t speak anymore!" Chen Xiao landed a punch on his head, knocking him out instantly. A man grabbed him by the ankles and dragged him away like a dog.
Luo Qingli looked on, her expression pained. She wanted to step forward but was held back firmly by Chen Xiao. Seeing the livid look on his face, she could only lower her head timidly.
The reversal of events happened so fast that no one in the crowd had time to process it.
No one expected Lu Wushuang to treat Chen Xiao so well, even daring to offend someone from Gaotong Group for his sake! They looked at Chen Xiao with envy. With Lu Wushuang’s backing, he could practically do whatever he wanted in Yuncheng City.
Lu Wushuang’s beautiful eyes swept over Luo Qingli, causing the latter to grow nervous.
The next moment, Lu Wushuang’s face broke into a radiant smile. "So this must be my sister-in-law, right? You truly live up to your title as the number one beauty of Yuncheng City. My foolish Junior Brother is a lucky man."
She had seen it from the shadows when Luo Qingli stood in front of Chen Xiao. Luo Qingli definitely had feelings for him; otherwise, she wouldn’t have been willing to give up the one-billion-dollar contract, choosing instead to ask Zhang Yaoyang to release Chen Xiao. In a way, Luo Qingli had passed her test.
"President Lu, you praise me too much!" Luo Qingli felt her own presence completely suppressed by Lu Wushuang’s aura, making her feel uncomfortable all over.
"Just call me Sister Wushuang," Lu Wushuang said with a gentle smile. "My junior brother called me today and asked me to give this project to you. The contract is already drafted. Please, take a look. This is the first time my Junior Brother has ever made a request on a woman’s behalf..."
"Ah? So when you said last night that you would help me get this project, you were serious?" Luo Qingli blushed slightly as she glanced at Chen Xiao.
"What else?" Chen Xiao said flatly. "The second thing I promised you is done. Now, only one thing remains."
With that, he walked back to his original seat.
Zhang Yaqing’s gaze swept over Chen Xiao’s face, her own full of jealousy. "Tsk tsk, I’m so jealous of your woman! And you’re really something else, handing over a one-billion-dollar project just like that. What woman could possibly resist? Why don’t you give me something nice too, Mr. Chen? I could be your mistress?" Her eyes held a bewitching charm.
Chen Xiao nonchalantly slapped away her wandering hand from under the table. "There are too many people. Don’t mess around."
Zhang Yaqing leaned in and whispered in his ear, her voice sultry, "So you mean... it’s okay if there are fewer people? This time, do you want to do it in the car, or somewhere else?"
The memory of their amorous encounter in the car made Chen Xiao gulp, and his body reacted instantly. He had to silently chant the Calming Incantation to force himself to settle down.
When Luo Qingli saw the two of them flirting again, her pretty face flushed with anger. She plopped down in the seat between them and said nothing, simply glaring at Chen Xiao. He felt a little awkward under her stare and turned his head away.
Lu Wushuang’s beautiful eyes twinkled. It seems my little Junior Brother is as popular with women as ever... Still, there’s nothing I can do to help with this Shura Field!
Chen Xiao felt like he was sitting on pins and needles and wanted to escape.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the room, Xu Yanran had briefly explained Lu Wushuang’s and Chen Xiao’s backgrounds to Liu Yitong.
Xu Yanran was furious. She couldn’t believe Lu Wushuang had saved Chen Xiao again at such a critical moment. It would have been perfect to just let Chen Xiao and Zhang Yaoyang’s group tear each other apart. Now, if she wanted to vent her anger, she would have to do it herself!
Seeing the discontent on Xu Yanran’s pretty face, Liu Yitong quickly soothed her. "He’s just some minor business owner. I thought he was a big shot. Junior Sister, your Senior Brother won’t let you suffer for nothing. We’ll go have a little chat with him!"
He patted Xu Yanran’s shoulder and then led a few people toward Chen Xiao.
Xu Yanran crossed her arms, a posture that made her magnificent curves seem even more striking. She stared coldly at Chen Xiao and raised an eyebrow. "Chen Xiao, have you forgotten something?"
Hearing her voice, Chen Xiao turned his gaze. When he saw it was indeed this persistent woman, a coldness rose in his eyes. "Aren’t you done yet?!"
