CHAPTER 94

At the same time, Ye Cheng averted his gaze from Ying Yue to look at Li Jing and found her blushing.

Gently, he tapped on her right hand which was still intertwined in his and rubbed on the back of her palm to ease her mind, gently.

Unknown to him, his actions did not go unnoticed to Ying Yue and she smiled again.

'Keep it up, Ye Cheng. You are going to make me the top reporter in the city with this news.' Ying Yue thought.

'Are you sure she is just your financial manager?' Yong Yue was tempted to ask that but who cares about the answer, she would leave the public to decide.

"Now, if you would excuse me."

"Please, pardon my intrusion. Enjoy your party." She bade them goodbye and as soon as they left, balled her fist and raised both hands in front of her. "Yes!"

The rest of the evening went well but Ye Cheng and Li Jing did not stay too long there.

Before they left, they both met Duan Tian and his stupidity came to play again. Unfortunately for him, Li Xiu was not there with him, so she could not even help him out and prevent him from digging his doom when he dug a big pit for himself.

Then again, even Li Xiu did not know what Ye Cheng looked like facially, so she was definitely never going to be of help anyways.

"So we meet again?" Both Li Jing and Ye Cheng turned their gaze to the side to see who was talking.

Immediately she laid eyes on him, her smile dropped and her face was marred with a frown. 'Here comes trouble.'

"I see you still haven't let go of this your gigolo boyfriend and you have not learnt your lesson well enough."

"So it was you who did that, sending those raiders to my home." Li Jing took a step forward but Ye Cheng held her hand tighter to prevent her from engaging in a verbal war with him.

"Yes and I just wished they had done more. It is quite simple actually, I am riding the world of scums like him and helping you end your whorish life."

As much as Ye Cheng did not want to have anything t say or do with Duan Tian, the idiot just did not know when to stop or call it quits and he insulted Li Jing, his date.

Li Jing was trying to control herself and her anger. Left for her, she would slap him or worse, knee him in the groin so he would not be able to commit such whorish acts again and her sister would leave him, but she was at a high class arty and she needed to behave herself.

"Let's go." Without saying much, Ye Cheng tugged on Li Jing's arm the second he noticed her free hand balled into a fist.

"Hoho hoo, look at them run. Before you were trying to play stunt and now you run away. Wannabes trying to blend. I do not even know who invited you to this party, you should go back to the slumps where you two belong. You would never be worth anything in my eyes Li Jing. You are just a waste to be used and dumped."

This time around, Duan Tian intentionally increased his tone to attract a few onlookers and hopefully make Li Jing feel more embarrassed that she would never show her face in such a gathering again but his words only angered Ye Cheng.

Both Li Jing and Ye Cheng stopped in their tracks at his words. Li Jing wanted to leave there soon, so Ye Cheng would not be embarrassed because of her but Ye Cheng just refused to bulge and keep on walking.

'This imbecile! I have shown enough mercy to this clown, but not anymore.'

Instantly, Ye Cheng turned towards Duan Tian again and closed the gap between them.

'This is definitely not going to be good.' Li Jing thought to herself. 'Someone please stop them. Anyone, please help.'

"What? Did I strike a chord?" Duan Tian asked, mockingly.

"You did more than that. You struck the wrong chord," Ye Cheng replied. "Perhaps my warning was not clear during our previous encounter, was it?"

"Pff, just who do you think you are?" Duan Tian had a smug look on his face as he waited to hear what he would say.

"Ye Cheng!" Another familiar voice called for him and Li Jing let out a sigh of relief.

'Finally!' Li Jing smiled in her mind. She would prefer someone else to teach him a lesson and not Ye Cheng during this gathering. Little did she know that Ye Cheng wouldn't have minded doing so.

"There you," another man quickly held Yu Xiaowen's hand, preventing him from advancing forward.

'Phew! For a moment there, I thought he was coming to us. Sigh. This is my chance to make a good impression on him. I would help him throw away this trash and he would be pleased with me.'

Duan Tian already had it all planned in his mind. Everything was going according to plan for him. This was going to be his chance to climb to the top and get many top companies investing in his family's company.

Mr Yu Xiaowen finished with the person he was talking to and turned back in their direction. As soon as Duan Tian saw him, he put on a huge smile and called his name.

Mr Yu Xiaowen's brows creased. He did not know the person that was calling him considering his assistant dished out the invitations and not him.

Nevertheless, he felt he was an important person since he was standing close to Ye Cheng and walked over to where they were.

Before he could say anything, Duan Tian stepped forward and bowed his head to greet him like a respectable young man.

"Mr Yu Xiaowen, happy birthday sir," Duan Tian greeted as he raised his head with a smile still etched on his face, to look at the older man whose face remained unchanging.
