Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 1049: Really Petty


"Is that so?" Ye Xiao immediately touched his nose and said with a smile, "That's not good now, I'm the company's vice president, a position second to none, I'm very important in the company. Many projects can't run without me."

"Oh, I see, how come I never noticed? You really are such an important company asset?" Jiang Miaoke glared at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao shrugged and unbuttoned the front of his trench coat, laughing, "There's nothing I can do, times have changed."

"Ye Xiao, if you have the guts, keep pretending." Jiang Miaoke said angrily, "Fine, you don't want to hang out with me. I'm not bothered by you either. Hmph, Qi Xin, let's go."

After saying so, Jiang Miaoke directly turned and walked in a certain direction, looking really angry.

Ye Xiao was a bit puzzled, what's up with this girl?

At this moment, Qi Xin stepped forward and whispered, "You know that bar we went to last time, right? We're going there today and Feng Hai will be there too."

Feng Hai will be there too?

Ye Xiao was slightly stunned by Qi Xin's words, thinking about Jiang Miaoke's sudden outburst. Could it be that this girl wants me to be her knight in shining armor?

Ye Xiao knew if he didn't go, Feng Hai would definitely flirt with Jiang Miaoke unscrupulously, and even though Jiang Miaoke would be annoyed, she at least couldn't beat him.

Having said this, Qi Xin hurriedly ran after Jiang Miaoke.

"Ye Xiao, you should go." Xia Mingyue looked at Ye Xiao and said, "Coco really hates Feng Hai."

Fang Jing added, "Exactly, you haven't been in touch with Coco for days, have you?"

Huh?

Ye Xiao scratched the back of his head and said, "Alright then, you guys get back to work, I'll go with Coco."

"Okay!"

Then, Ye Xiao immediately caught up with Qi Xin, laughing, "Are there gatherings at that bar every so often?"

Qi Xin said, "Once or twice a month, I guess, because there aren't any random people there, it's more fun to hang out."

Ah, I see!

Indeed, when Ye Xiao went last time, even he almost couldn't get in because it's open to certain people only.

The blue Porsche had already started, and Jiang Miaoke, in the driver's seat, looked quite unhappy.

For Fang Jing, Ye Xiao went to the hospital and then to the Jiang Family, yet he didn't even want to hang out with her. Could it be that she's that unworthy? The more Jiang Miaoke thought about it, the more upset she became, and the more she felt that Ye Xiao was really a jerk.

But just as she was feeling down, she suddenly saw in the distance Qi Xin coming over, and along with Qi Xin, surprisingly, was the person she disliked the most right now.

Ye Xiao?

Jiang Miaoke was suddenly a bit puzzled, why is this guy, who didn't want to hang out earlier, coming over now? Could it be because he saw that she was upset?

Thinking of this, Jiang Miaoke became even angrier, if it wasn't because she was upset, he wouldn't have come.

Qi Xin and Ye Xiao walked over, smiling.

"Coco, still upset?" Ye Xiao looked at the visibly unhappy Jiang Miaoke with a smile and chuckled.

"Upset?" Jiang Miaoke snorted coldly, "Why would I be upset? Is anyone worth my anger? Qi Xin, get in the car, let's go!"

Qi Xin smiled at Jiang Miaoke and asked, "Coco, should Ye Xiao sit in the passenger seat or the back?"

"Who said he could get in?" Jiang Miaoke didn't even look at Ye Xiao and turned her displeased gaze to Qi Xin, "Hurry up, it's almost lunchtime, aren't we leaving?"

Qi Xin glanced at Ye Xiao, gave a wry smile, and quickly got into the car.

Ye Xiao stood by the Porsche's window, smiling at Jiang Miaoke, "Coco, you're really not planning to let me go? Didn't I come all the way here?"

"Who cares if you came?" Jiang Miaoke glared at Ye Xiao. As Qi Xin was already in the car, she stomped on the accelerator, and the Porsche sped away.

Leaving Ye Xiao still standing there, a bit stunned!

This little girl is really angry!

Ye Xiao couldn't help but chuckle. It really had been days since he last played with her, it seems he shouldn't refuse to go.

Ye Xiao sighed, a wry smile on his face.

Should I go?

Ye Xiao hesitated a bit, well, women need coaxing; at least for the stubborn vow he held in his heart, he should go.

Ye Xiao walked leisurely towards where the Jetta was parked.

When Ye Xiao reached the spot where the Jetta was parked, Xia Mingyue and Fang Jing came over as well.

"Huh?" Fang Jing looked curiously at Ye Xiao and said, "Why are you back? Where's Coco?"

Ye Xiao gave a wry smile and said, "She's already gone!"

Fang Jing asked, "Couldn't catch up?"

"She won't let me go," Ye Xiao said.

Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Fang Jing immediately looked gloating and said, "You offended someone, didn't you? You could have gone out with Coco and the others to have fun, but no, you didn't want to. Now what? Going to the office, or..."

Ye Xiao felt truly pathetic now. When people wanted him to go, he didn't want to, but when they didn't want him to go, he insisted on going.

"I better drive to catch up," Ye Xiao said, "Driving when angry isn't safe."

"Forget it," Fang Jing said disdainfully, "Oh right, Ming Yue just told me, when will the training start?"

Ye Xiao, being quite smart, naturally understood that the training Fang Jing was talking about actually meant Martial Arts cultivation.

Ye Xiao said, "Tonight, I guess. Although you all have decent talents, there's a pill that, once taken, would be even better."

"Oh? What pill?" Fang Jing and Xia Mingyue, who was already seated in the car, both looked at Ye Xiao with astonishment.

"I'll tell you about the pill later tonight," said Ye Xiao as he walked to the Jetta, opened the door, and got in.

"Alright then, we'll head off first," Xia Mingyue said.

Ye Xiao nodded, but Xia Mingyue didn't drive off!

Just then, Xia Mingyue suddenly looked up at Ye Xiao and said, "This black trench coat looks pretty good on you."

Ye Xiao was slightly taken aback, looked at the black trench coat he was wearing, and suddenly laughed, saying, "When you're handsome, anything looks good on you."

Xia Mingyue rolled her eyes at Ye Xiao, then slammed on the accelerator, and zoomed off.

"What's the matter, why is everyone driving so aggressively?" Ye Xiao muttered to himself, a bit annoyed, "Watch the driving skills of Ye Xiao, the car god!"

Haha!

The Jetta remained in place and even shut off the engine!

Ye Xiao blushed slightly, looked around and, seeing no one, sighed and muttered to himself, "Damn it, what a crappy car, even with my superb skills, I can still stall it?"

He restarted the engine, and finally drove off gracefully.

At the door, he exchanged greetings with Jiang Tong, then leisurely left the Jiang Family.

Ye Xiao suddenly realized that Jiang Tong seemed to be ubiquitous in the Jiang Family. But of course, these things didn't concern Ye Xiao at all, so he couldn't be bothered to waste his brain cells on it.

As Ye Xiao had been to the Black Mood Bar before, he could find it without following Jiang Miaoke, even though he had only been there once.

While driving on the road, Ye Xiao's mind echoed with Jiang Wuqi's words. Meeting Jiang Wuqi today really opened Ye Xiao's eyes, not only letting him know that someone with an innate Dantian was around him but, more importantly, realizing that behind the seemingly calm exterior of Bird City, the Jiang Family had eyes everywhere.

This is probably something the other seven families of Martial Arts Families in Bird City don't know.

Although they know better than to provoke the Jiang Family, they probably don't realize how outstanding the Jiang Family's intelligence network is.

To achieve such an extraordinary intelligence network, there's only one possibility: the Jiang Family has spies in the other seven families. In other words, in each of the other seven families, there's a Jiang Family mole.

This is absolutely terrifying. Someone you believe you can trust might actually be a Jiang Family mole.

Ye Xiao sighed; Bird City is really complicated.

Finally, Ye Xiao thought of Jiang Miaoke, recalling her angry look. Ye Xiao couldn't help but grimace. Women, they're definitely creatures fond of devouring vinegar, but this also reminded Ye Xiao of another woman.

Zheng Lingshan!

As a salesgirl in the sales office, even though it's the weekend, Zheng Lingshan probably won't have time to go out and play, right?

After thinking it over, Ye Xiao finally held the steering wheel with one hand while taking out his phone to find Zheng Lingshan's number with the other.

He dialed out!

Ye Xiao anticipated hearing Zheng Lingshan's voice, but none came until the system indicated the call wasn't answered!

Could it be that she's busy selling houses? Ye Xiao wondered, but he still dialed Zheng Lingshan again.

This time it rang about six or seven times before the call was answered.

"Ye Xiao?" It was indeed Zheng Lingshan's voice on the line.

Hearing Zheng Lingshan, Ye Xiao deliberately sounded a bit annoyed, saying, "If I don't call you, you wouldn't even think to contact me, and when I called you the first time, you didn't pick up. Could it be you found a boyfriend and plan to avoid me?"

"No… No!" Zheng Lingshan, sounding a bit nervous, continued, "I really didn't. My phone was on silent, so I didn't hear it."

"Silent mode?" Ye Xiao laughed, "You're really not the brightest, are you? If your phone's on silent and a customer wants to buy a house, how will they reach you?"

"No, I… I'm not a salesgirl anymore," Zheng Lingshan said.

Hearing this, Ye Xiao felt a bit strange, another job change?

The last time she switched jobs was because of him, but why change again now?
