Chapter 846 - Cunning Women

The afternoon sun was warm .

Tang Yuyan arrived at the Thunder Horse Military Factory by car . At the parking lot, she saw a very ordinary Hongqi car . In it, was a solitary female driver . Her brows furrowed immediately . Although she couldn’t confirm who it belonged to, she had her guesses . A woman’s intuition was rarely wrong .

“Is it her? That shameless…” Tang Yuyan cursed privately . She hesitated but still entered the office tower in the end towards Xia Lei’s office .  

In the hallways, Tang Yuyan met Qing Caiyue bringing some documents to the garage . Qing Caiyue greeted her . “Hey, aren’t you Miss Tang? Are you here to meet our director? I’ll let him know you are coming . ”

Tang Yuyan replied, “There is no need . Continue with your work, I’ll look for him myself . ”

“Alright, I’ll get going then . ” Qing Caiyue walked past .  

“Wait . ” Tang Yuyan stopped Qing Caiyue . “Is there a guest in Director Xia’s office now?”

“Yes, Miss Fan is here . ”

“What’s she here for?” 

“Miss Fan made Director Xia some chicken soup . She personally came to deliver it . ” Qing Caiyue smiled . “Sigh, she’s so nice . She came all the way here just to bring him soup, Director Xia is a lucky man . ” 

These words were like a knife to her heart but Tang Yuyan pretended not to care . She smiled . “Alright, thank you . I’ll go see him now . ”

Qing Caiyue walked towards the staircase then turned to take a look at Tang Yuyan walking away . She quickly fished out her phone to type a message . “Urgent . Ex-fiancee is here . ” 

One second later, Xia Lei put down his phone with a smile .

Tang Yuyan came to Xia Lei’s office but did not enter . She stood quietly by the walls, listening for any sounds .  

“Lei, I helped you get a zero-interest loan and devised a plan to recruit more talent . ” It was Fan Fan’s voice .  

Xia Lei’s voice followed . “Thank you so much . The Thunder Horse Organization has reached a critical period in its development . The things you helped with are very important . ”

“You don’t have to thank me, we’re going to be family soon . Of course, I’ll help my own family!” 

“Hehe…” Xia Lei laughed in response .  

By the walls, Tang Yuyan’s heart clenched . “Such an idiot, are you going to give away a lifetime of happiness for that?” 

“I know we don’t really have feelings right now but it’ll come gradually . I am the type to love slowly . I believe you’ll slowly feel it too…” Fan Fan said . “Many leaders have high hopes for our relationship and they care about us . I am hopeful for our future, Lei, what about you?”

“I…” Xia Lei said . “I thank the leaders for caring so much about me . I… I do not have an opinion on this . ”

“That’s great . Open wide . Drink some soup while it’s still warm,” came Fan Fan’s voice .  

Tang Yuyan bit her lip . “This is ridiculous! I can’t believe you were defeated just like that! No way, I object!”

She reached to grab the door handle .  

However, she heard Xia Lei say, “Fan Fan, I have a request . Yuyan has been harmed and I feel bad for her and her family . Yuyan will be taking over Shi’s position soon . I don’t want her to be affected because of this matter . Do you understand what I mean?”

Fan Fan replied, “I understand . But this also depends on her capabilities . Our matter was arranged by the organisation . If she forces herself in here as a third party, she definitely won’t be able to take over Shi Boren’s position . ”

Outside, Tang Yuyan retracted her hand .  

Fan Fan continued, “If she’s smart, the Tang family will benefit . If she isn’t, they will suffer . I don’t mind her competing against me but you know, sometimes three’s a crowd . ”

Xia Lei sighed . “Yuyan said she’ll come by today . I’ll discuss with her . I really don’t want her and her family to suffer again . ”

“She’s coming?” asked Fan Fan . “I don’t want to meet her . ”

“Why not?”

“It’s awkward . . . . ” Fan Fan said demurely . “Come, open up, drink some chicken soup . Aiya, it spilt on your pants! Don’t move, I’ll wipe it off for you . ”

“No, no, I’ll do it myself . ”

“Hehe, what are you thinking? You’re so bad…”

Tang Yuyan couldn’t help but imagine the scenario of Fan Fan wiping his pants with a piece of tissue . Tang Yuyan could not bear to stay any longer so she dabbed her eyes and turned to leave .  

If she wasn’t a girl from the Tang family, she would have entered Xia Lei’s office at that moment . However, the Tang family’s blood was flowing in her veins . She could not harm her family for her own happiness . She had to make a sacrifice, even if she was unwilling .  

In the office, Xia Lei sighed . “She’s gone . ”

“So what if she’s gone? Isn’t this what you want?” asked Fan Fan .  

Xia Lei smiled bitterly . “I’m lying to her . Are we bad people?”

Fan Fan leaned against Xia Lei . “You’re a bad man and I’m a bad woman . We make a good pair . In the future, we can have a naughty little kid . Then we’ll all be bad . ”

His mess with the Tang family had reached an end . But was this the final show? He did not know . Looking at her lonely silhouette, he was filled with guilt .  

The next evening rolled around .  

A Chevrolet Suburban travelled down the street .  

Xia Lei opened the door and Zhu Xuanyue sat at the passenger’s seat . She was holding a teddy bear, looking around at the brightly lit streets with awe .

“Don’t play with your toys later,” said Xia Lei . “When we arrive at the restaurant, you have to follow my instructions . Alright?”

“Mmm . ” Zhu Xuanyue nodded solemnly . “Uncle Xia, what do you want me to do?”

“Do you like playing games?” 

“Yeah, I love playing games!” 

He smirked . “Then we shall play a game with two other uncles…”

Half an hour later, a Toyota land cruiser arrived in front of a Western cuisine restaurant .  

Ling Han got out of the car and opened the door for Yu Shanhe .  

It was an expensive-looking restaurant but empty inside . Just two customers were present . One was Xia Lei and a lady . Ling Han studied her . That lady was sitting at a table in the same row as Xia Lei’s table . She wore a long white dress . She sat quietly at the table, looking at her glass of orange juice . She did not look up to look at him or Yu Shanhe .  

Xia Lei got up to welcome them with a smile . “Brother Ling, Officer Yu, I’ve been waiting! If you hadn’t arrived, I would’ve called . ” 

Yu Shanhe merely nodded slightly .  

Ling Han looked at the lady again . “Why is it so quiet here?” 

Xia Lei smiled . “I booked the entire restaurant . We’ll be eating and discussing business . I don’t want too many people around us . ”

“And the miss over there?” 

“She’s been here since I arrived . The boss of this restaurant said he can’t kick her out . She was here first, it doesn’t matter if there’s one more person in the room,” said Xia Lei .  

Ling Han did not ask more questions . The three of them sat down and the waiter brought a menu over . Xia Lei ordered and requested for an expensive bottle of French Lafite red wine .  

When the waiter left, Yu Shanhe remarked, “You don’t have to waste your money like that . Why must you order such expensive wine? We can just drink our local wine . ”

Feigning awkwardness, Xia Lei said, “My apologies . Next time, next time I’ll order Changchen or Changyu wine . ”

Ling Han smiled . “Officer Yu, Xia Lei is a billionaire now . We are the ones who got lucky today, would we ever splurge like that on ourselves?”

Yu Shanhe replied mildly, “Stop calling me Officer Yu everywhere we go . This is a restaurant, call me Mr Yu . Or Uncle Yu . I’m twenty or thirty years older than you both, I think Uncle is fitting . ”

Xia Lei and Ling Han looked at each other with a grin . The tension in the air dissolved with this statement .  

Ling Han looked at the lady once again . This time, he could see her full breasts, buttocks and thighs . He was not a perverted man . However, this lady was so beautiful that he had to take a second glance .  

Xia Lei said in a low voice, “She’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen . She’ll be good for your eyes . ”

“Mmm . ” Ling Han coughed awkwardly and turned around . “Brother, don’t tease me like that! Look at the women around you, they’re all gorgeous, aren't they? Plus, I’m just looking . Everyone can appreciate aesthetic beauty . ”

“Right, right . Aesthetic . Let’s talk business now, forget about her . ”

The waiter served the dishes and opened a bottle of Lafite red wine .  

When the waiter left, Yu Shanhe spoke once again . “Xia Lei, we can get straight to the point . ”

“Alright . ” Xia Lei grinned . “I am a direct person . ”

“Right, then I’ll speak first,” said Yu Shanhe . “We had our disagreements but this is not a personal matter . But there are many people’s livelihoods on the line here, I need to help them too . ”

Xia Lei nodded . “I understand . I’d do the same . ”

Ling Han picked up the decanter and poured wine . “That’s great, understanding is the bridge between two people, the foundation of friendship . Let’s toast to this unprecedented meeting . ”

Ring ring… Ring ring…

Xia Lei’s phone rang .  

Yu Shanhe and Ling Han looked at each other as a slight smile on the corners of their lips .
