Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Wasting WordsBecause it was too late, Ye Huan didn’t return to Penglai Lakefront and chose to stay in the guest room at Su Qingqing’s house instead.

    The next day, in the living room.

    "Crack."

    Su Qingqing suddenly squeezed her right hand, and a boiled egg exploded in her palm.

    "Sis, you..." Su Zhiqiang’s face showed an awkward expression.

    "Ding."

    The clock on the wall had its hour hand stopped just past 8.

    Eight o’clock sharp.

    There was still one hour until the start of work at Tianyun International!

    "That bastard, why isn’t he up yet?"

    Su Qingqing looked a bit annoyed.

    She had gotten up early at six thirty to prepare breakfast, and to avoid losing face in front of Ye Huan, she had pulled out all the stops, using all her best skills...

    But what came out was still a mess of black slop...

    So, in her frustration, she rushed downstairs and bought twenty yuan worth of breakfast to pass off as her own.

    Yet, Ye Huan from Huaxia was ungrateful, not even getting up by eight, which meant even if her breakfast was great, he wouldn’t appreciate it?

    The two matters combined, making Su Qingqing even more furious...

    "No, I have to go teach him a lesson!"

    Outraged and embarrassed, Su Qingqing grabbed a kitchen knife and kicked open the guest room door, quickly closing it behind her.

    Rushing into the room, her expression changed and she said speechlessly, "Ye Huan, you’re awake but not getting up, do you know what time it is?"

    Ye Huan had a serious look on his face: "I was waiting."

    "Waiting?" Su Qingqing was stunned for a moment, showing doubt on her face, "What are you waiting for?"

    "I was waiting for you to yell at me... woke me up." Ye Huan remained indifferent, his gaze "steady."

    "..."

    Su Qingqing froze in place.

    Then, a blush crept across her face, and she swung the kitchen knife at Ye Huan: "I’ll show you! Go to hell."

    "Whoa, are you trying to kill someone!"

    Ye Huan quickly jumped up, dodging one strike and dived into the corner of the room.

    Su Qingqing gritted her teeth, aiming the kitchen knife at Ye Huan, "If you have the guts, don’t run!"

    "Not run? If I didn’t run, I’d have to be crazy!" Ye Huan grumbled, "Besides, what’s wrong with waking me up? After all, I’m a guest..."

    "You... you shut up!"

    Su Qingqing wasn’t concerned about being woken up.

    It was the ambiguous term Ye Huan used!

    The meaning was too loaded!

    Her face was red enough to drip blood, and she chased Ye Huan around with the knife.

    "I got it, Deputy Su, did you misunderstand or twist my words?"

    "You... you’re full of it!"

    Su Qingqing became increasingly furious: "My thoughts are pure, much purer than yours!" Sёarch* The Novel?ire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    "Then why are you swinging a knife at me? Isn’t that because you’re embarrassed and angry?"

    "I’m not, I’m just venting at the air, who wants to hit you anyway?"

    "This kitchen knife is obviously aimed at me, do you think I’m blind?"

    "Vain and self-centered!"

    Suppressing her anger, Su Qingqing spat, "Swinging at you is just to wake you up, so you can get alert sooner. I did come here to wake you up, there’s only an hour left before work, hurry up."

    "Well, I’ve been woken, you can go now." Ye Huan said with a smile.

    "You..."

    Su Qingqing was extremely livid, swinging angrily at the air a couple of times, then stomped her feet twice and left the room in a huff.

    Although she really wanted to teach Ye Huan a lesson, actually striking would mean admitting she had impure thoughts, or misunderstood?

    "Bang."

    Listening to the door closing, Ye Huan’s mouth curved into a smile.

    You’re still too green to challenge me!

    Actually, Ye Huan hadn’t woken up before. He just sensed a strong aura of "murderous intent" and snapped awake.

    If not for his years working in the Dark World, he would have been long gone!

    No wonder the old men in the village say women are the most dangerous creatures, they weren’t lying!

    ...

    "Vroom vroom."

    Hearing the rumble of a car engine from the apartment downstairs, and watching the BMW 7 Series disappear in the distance through the window, Ye Huan was speechless.

    Wasn’t the plan to wait for me? Why run off now!

    After washing up, Ye Huan grabbed two buns from the table, stuffed them into his mouth, and left the apartment building.

    "Hey, hey, young man."

    Just as he got downstairs, a woman’s voice called out to Ye Huan.

    A woman in floral clothes approached leading a chubby young man.

    The young man appeared to be about thirty-five, with barely any hair left on his head. As he walked, the fat on his face jiggled, and he constantly stuffed potato chips into his mouth, the crunching sound crisp, while half, because of his chewing, would fall to the ground.

    "Auntie, what’s up?"

    "Oh oh oh, I’m asking for directions." The woman took out a slip of paper, smilingly inquired, "Young man, do you know how to get to this place?"

    "Tianyun International?"

    Seeing the location written on the paper, Ye Huan nodded: "I’m heading there to work, why not come with me?"

    The woman and the young man exchanged glances, their faces lighting up with joy.

    She shook Ye Huan’s hand twice, with a big smile: "Young man, you’re not only good-looking but also kind-hearted, thank you so much."

    "It’s nothing, really."

    "Not only good-looking and kind-hearted, but also young and promising. Tianyun International is such a well-known company in Celestial Sea. Working there, you have a brilliant future ahead, truly people can’t be judged by appearance!" The woman’s eyes flashed with cleverness, "Young man, do you have a partner?"

    Listening to such praises, Ye Huan almost gave her a thumbs up.

    You don’t find many with such insight!

    Just that phrase ’people can’t be judged by appearance’ felt a bit off. Doesn’t young master have an imperial aura? Do I still need an inner character?

    However, that’s not important!

    Ye Huan smacked his lips: "I’m married."

    The woman’s face first showed regret, then she earnestly advised: "Young man, with your excellence, don’t let a single small tree cost you the entire forest."

    Saying this, she put down the sack she was holding and pulled out a photo, hinting, "Young man, this is my daughter. Her looks don’t lose to those supermodels. If you could win her over..."

    The next moment, a taxi pulled over by the side of the road, and she froze.

    "Young man, what’s this?" The woman’s face changed slightly.

    "Get in the car, I’ll pay for the ride."

    "Huh? You’re not driving your own car?"

    "As a security team leader, I only make 6000 yuan a month. How could I afford a car? Taking a taxi is much more economical." Ye Huan chuckled, taking the front passenger seat.

    The woman quickly hid the photo behind her, her face turning extremely sour.

    She thought she snagged a "poor-looking" guy who owns a car and property and is rich, only to find out this man works at Tianyun International but is just a mere security guard, what a disappointment!

    Wasted so much saliva.

    The chubby young man next to her didn’t look pleased either.
