Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 650

Following a rapid departure, Tang Xi and Qin Jinchuan left together, leaving Xiao Linye alone at the scene, as if forgotten.

Kang Xuan appeared from nowhere and came up to him. "My lord?"

"Find out where she is," Xiao Linye roared in a low, furious voice.

Just now, Qin Jinchuan and Tang Xi seemed to have received calls concerning Ye Yuning before they hurriedly left. Could something have happened to her? 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

At this thought, Xiao Linye felt his heart leap to his throat. Unable to sit still, he stood up and walked out. "Quick, find out where exactly she is."

As he spoke, he pulled out his phone and called Qin Jinchuan. However, Qin Jinchuan was already on another call.

Xiao Linye couldn’t care less. He had always wanted to call Ye Yuning before leaving Upper City but had been plagued by worries about the repercussions. Now, he couldn’t be bothered with such concerns and dialed Ye Yuning’s number directly.

At this moment, Ye Yuning was in a private room at the Imperial Capital Grand Hotel. She looked at the fat-faced, large-eared man opposite her, who was leering with a particularly sleazy smile.

She desperately concealed the disgust in her eyes.

"Miss Ye, this is a special red wine from Turanxi. Please have a taste," the man said, his eyes roaming incessantly over her face.

As he finished speaking, his assistant, understanding the cue, approached Ye Yuning with the wine and poured her a generous amount, well over half a glass.

The aroma of the wine was intoxicating.

Looking at the enticing red liquid, Ye Yuning raised an eyebrow at the man opposite her.

"I’m truly sorry, but in my current condition, I can’t drink wine. Please allow me to use tea instead," she said. As she spoke, Ye Yuning picked up the teacup before her and, with a smile, raised it towards the man opposite her.

She now understood the implications of the drinks on the table. She had been careless!

The other party had spoken of cooperation, and she had assumed it would be like her dealings in Upper City. However, it now appeared that was not the case.

"Miss Ye won’t drink? That seems a bit disrespectful, doesn’t it? After all, you’re seeking such a big project here, and you..."

At this, the man opposite her paused. His gaze on her became openly lascivious, and he audaciously sized her up from head to toe.

Ye Yuning narrowed her eyes. She put down her teacup and looked at the man, the smile vanishing from her face in an instant.

She then spoke indifferently, "This project of mine is meant to bring economic stimulus to Southwest Province. If Director Zhang feels that Southwest Province doesn’t need it, I can choose another place."

Her words undoubtedly brought the negotiation to a deadlock. Ye Yuning’s sudden declaration also made the man’s expression stiffen.

Clearly, he hadn’t expected her to adopt such a stance. "So, Miss Ye, are you implying you didn’t come to tonight’s negotiation with sincerity?" the man’s voice deepened.

The atmosphere in the private room grew tense.

"Of course, I came with sincerity," Ye Yuning stated, "but strictly for cooperation!"

Her tone was more forceful than ever. In all her years in Upper City, she had single-handedly built her career to its current standing. What kind of situation hadn’t she encountered?

Ye Yuning had always been very clear about her own capabilities and leverage, and she never compromised. It was just her misfortune to encounter such a situation on her first solo venture in Turanxi.

As soon as she uttered the words "strictly for cooperation," the other party’s attitude also hardened.

"If that’s the case, then it seems Miss Ye and I have nothing left to discuss."

"Alright, understood!" Ye Yuning nodded, standing up without hesitation.

Then, without a backward glance, she turned to leave. Just as she reached the door, her head suddenly spun. Ye Yuning’s expression darkened, and she instinctively clenched her fists.

Damn it, the tea was drugged too!

"Miss Ye, have you thought this through?" the man said. "After all, quite a few people have approached me about that comprehensive project for Southwest Province. If you want me to give it to you, you’ll have to show me something... different."

A shadow crossed Ye Yuning’s eyes. She turned back, glaring fiercely at the man, then her hand reached unhesitatingly for the doorknob.

Seeing her react this way, the man sneered, "Still quite the spitfire, I see. Good. A personality like yours is far more interesting than those fawning types who just nod and bow."

Ye Yuning couldn’t bear his insinuating words any longer and turned the doorknob.

However, the door did not open as she expected.

The man was even more shameless than she had imagined.

When the door didn’t open, a dangerous glint flashed in Ye Yuning’s eyes. "Open the door!"

"I’ve long heard that Miss Ye remains radiant despite her pregnancy. Seeing you today, it’s clear that’s indeed the case."

"I said, open the door!" Ye Yuning’s breathing grew heavy, the menace in her voice unconcealed. She felt her body growing hotter. Damn it, these bastards actually used such a drug on a pregnant woman!
