CHAPTER 95
Duan Tian had quickly come to greet him to show Li Jing that he had connections while she was moving with a nameless person with good looks.
"Thank you." Yu Xiaowen replied and fixed his gaze on Ye Cheng who stayed silent the whole time. "Umm… what is going on here?"
Before he could utter another word again, Duan Tian quickly interjected and replied to him before Li Jing or Ye Cheng could.
This was his chance to bring himself out and he was going to enjoy the opportunity.
"You do not have to bother yourself with these scum. I was just telling them how privileged they are to be allowed in here to watch the celebration."
'What the!' Yu Xiaowen thought but he did not show any sign of surprise as he waited for Duan Tian to finish.
After he had said some other nasty things about them, like calling Li Jing a whore who sleeps around and follow gigolos, Yu Xiaowen found him interesting.
"Young man, what is your name?"
"Haha forgive me, sir, I failed to introduce myself earlier on." He had felt that since his company got an invitation then Yu Xiaowen would definitely know him. Apparently, that was not the case.
Since he did not want to lose face, he decided to wash it off with a smile. "My is Duan Tian. Chairman Duan's grandson."
"Oh, Chairman Duan!"
"Yes sir."
"Good." He seemed thoughtful at the mention of Duan Tian's father's name.
'As arrogant as his grandfather. I see it runs in the family.' Yu Xiaowen thought.
"Should I send for the guards to take them out for you?" Duan Tian asked, pulling him from his thoughts and ended u making Yu Xiaowen arch his brows at him.
He was wondering if he just heard this boy very well. Did he just say throw Ye Cheng out?
"Oh, there would be no need for that. Relax, there would be a throwing out happening soon."
"Okay sir, I just wanted to help."
Without saying much to him, Yu Xiaowen returned his gaze to Ye Cheng.
'I wonder how he had listened to this idiot all these while, even I myself would have pummeled this ingrate.' Yu Xiaowen thought.
Clearing his throat, he managed to get Ye Cheng's attention. "
"My apologies, Ye Cheng. I would handle this quickly," Yu Xiaowen quickly apologized with a bow.
"Do so and I may consider this as a mistake."
GBAGHAN!
It felts as though all the glass of illusion surrounding Duan Tian suddenly shattered and the mist blocking reality, cleared away.
"Ye Cheng?!" Duan Tian was left tong tied at the new information. The person he had been insulting was none other than Ye Cheng!
He just dug his grave and planned his company's downfall.
Mr Yu Xiaowen averted his gaze to Duan Tian, arching his brows at him. "Who did you think you have been insulting since?"
Immediately, Duan Tian bowed his head to Yu Xiaowen. "I apologize for my shortsightedness. Please forgive me."
"Indeed, you were shortsighted." He looked up and found one of his workers then signalled for him to come to him. "Who invited this ingrate?"
"Sir, invites were sent to all the top-notch businesses and the middle ones, sir."
"I specifically stated not to invite the Duan Group. Why did they still get one?"
"It was due to some error on our part sir. My apologies."
"There would be a deduction from your salaries. Let it be known that as of this day, the Yu Group seizes to do business with the Duan Group. Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes sir."
"Ah! Sir, please, do not withdraw your investments, please. Forgive me. I did not know…"
"Till now, you do not know whom you should tender your apology to? Guards!"
Three hefty looking men in suits immediately arrived. By now the scene had drawn a lot of attention and people began to whisper among themselves.
It was then that Li Xiu arrived to see three men standing at Duan Tian's back with two of them holding his hands.
"Take this imbecile and throw him out this instant."
"What! Hey, how can you speak that way to my fiancé? Who are you to throw him out! I should throw you out. Guards throw this man out!"
Li Xiu pointed to Yu Xiaowen without even seeing his face since she was at his back. She did not care as she was mega annoyed that her Duan Tian was being disgraced publicly.
"Li Xiu! Shut up! Do you know who you are talking to?" Duan Tian cried out.
Never in his life would he have believed this girl would be the end of him. Here he was pleading for his company and she was adding fuel to the fire.
"And what are you still doing listening to crap?" Yu Xiaowen hollered at them. "While you are at it, throw this mad woman out as well."
It was when he turned and pointed to her that Li Xiu saw the face of whom she just insulted. It was none other than the birthday celebrant and host, Yu Xiaowen.
Her face was ashen with shock as she stared at the enraged face of Yu Xiaowen.
"Mr Yu, please forgive me." Li Xiu begged as tears began to fall from her eyes.
"You both deserve each other. Get out!"
"Sir, Mr Yu, please. Wait, we can talk this out."
Duan Tian's voice and Li Xiu's echoed in the hall as they were dragged out of the place. Immediately they left, Mr Yu turned to look at Ye Cheng, only to discover that the latter and his date were long gone.
"Dammit! See what those imbeciles have caused!"
––––––
As soon as Ye Cheng left, he took Li Jing home in his car. All through their ride, both of them remained silent.
It was when they were getting close to her place that Li Jing broke the silence.
"I am so sorry that you had to endure that because of me. If I had not been there, then you would not have been insulted by Duan Tian."
Ye Cheng kept mute and let her speak her mind. From the corners of his eyes, he knew she was feeling sad about the whole thing and he found that somewhat amusing.
