"Alright, alright!" Ye Xiao said with a laugh to Ling Shuya, "Shuya, it's almost time to start work. You guys should head back first, otherwise, once people from Hengzhiyuan Group find out that I'm in Yang Ming's office, they will definitely come here to make trouble. Then, I would have to stay in jail, and you wouldn't want me to be in jail, would you?"

"Hmph, I couldn't care less!" Ling Shuya snorted. However, even though she said that, she still let Yang Ming off the hook and said, "I'm just bored and about to go shopping. School starts again tomorrow."

As Ling Shuya spoke, she walked towards the exit. Zhou Yuyan, Shen Qiuyu, Su Yun, and the others all smiled softly, not saying much!

"Ye Xiao, then we'll be going now. Remember my words, stay calm!" Shen Qiuyu said, looking at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao nodded and replied, "I know. Have fun out there, and keep an eye on Shuya to make sure she doesn't get into trouble."

"Would Ling Shuya still be Ling Shuya if she didn't cause trouble?" Shen Qiuyu said with a soft chuckle, then left with the other girls.

Seeing that the group of girls had left, Yang Ming finally dared to look at Ye Xiao and said with a smile, "Brother Xiao, today really taught me a lesson!"

"Oh?" Ye Xiao asked, "What do you mean?"

"People always say that having thousands of beauties is the greatest blessing in life, but now, I don't think so. Like in your case, I don't see it as something good," Yang Ming said with a wry smile.

Hearing Yang Ming's words, Ye Xiao quickly corrected him, "That's different from my situation. I never said all these women were mine. Of course, mainly because they haven't acknowledged it themselves."

"Is there a difference?" Yang Ming laughed and said, "Brother Xiao, being able to handle a group of beauties isn't something an ordinary person can do."

Listening to Yang Ming's words, Ye Xiao laughed heartily since no matter how much he tried to explain, Yang Ming wouldn't believe it. This guy was convinced that these women were his own.

However, actually, Ye Xiao didn't want to explain, because no matter how much he tried, Yang Ming would only think it was all a cover-up.

"Let's drop the subject," Ye Xiao said. "I just had food on your desk. Check if I've messed up your documents. If so, you'd better tidy them up quickly."

"Oh, no worries!" Yang Ming chucklingly replied.

Just then, a woman walked into the door from outside—the same policewoman Ye Xiao saw with Yang Ming the last time!

The policewoman was slightly taken aback when she saw Ye Xiao inside.

Clearly, the policewoman wasn't here to find Ye Xiao.

"Something up?" Yang Ming looked at the policewoman.

"I..." The policewoman hesitated upon Yang Ming's question, stuttering and seemingly unable to speak up.

Ye Xiao realized that the policewoman's hesitation must be due to him, and maybe out of impatience for Ye Xiao, Yang Ming quickly said, "If there's nothing important, you can go out."

"Ha, you two chat, I just had lunch. I'm a bit sleepy and I'm going to take a nap," Ye Xiao said, immediately heading for the inner room.

Ye Xiao walked into the inner room, took out his phone, and purposefully turned up the volume. At the same time, he felt that it wasn't very convenient to be here.

Yang Ming and the policewoman whispered outside, discussing their private matters. Ye Xiao couldn't be bothered to care about it.

But, while Ye Xiao was playing Battle Game on his phone, a call suddenly came through from an unfamiliar number.

Who could be calling me at this time?

Although Ye Xiao thought this, he still immediately answered the call.

"Is this Mr. Ye?" The voice on the phone sounded to be in the forties.

Ye Xiao, hearing the voice and recognizing it wasn't familiar, responded with a smile, "This is Ye Xiao, who am I speaking to?"

"I am Guo Pincheng," the voice on the other end said.

Ye Xiao, having met Guo Pincheng before and having heard him speak, pretended to say, "Oh, it's Mr. Guo. I'm so sorry, I didn't even recognize your voice."

Guo Pincheng, listening to Ye Xiao's cheerfully chuckling voice, couldn't muster a smile. Guo Chuan had gone back and told Guo Pincheng all about what had happened with Ye Xiao. Knowing this, Guo Pincheng was furious.

Yet, amidst his anger, he also had to think about what to do next.

Ye Xiao was in possession of a video that was a lethal threat to Guo family father and son. As much as Guo Pincheng did not want to cooperate with Ye Xiao, the cunning fellow, he still had no choice but to call Ye Xiao.

Guo Pincheng had always considered himself quite cunning, but now, compared to Ye Xiao, he really felt like an amateur.

"Mr. Ye, whatever conditions you have, just say them. As long as the Guo family can do it, we won't hesitate," Guo Pincheng said to Ye Xiao.

Guo Pincheng's words were very sincere, but who was Ye Xiao? How could he not know what Guo family father and son meant?

Ye Xiao was sure that the Guo father and son were thinking about ripping him apart.

"Look at what you're saying, I'm someone who doesn't let friends take a loss. I think Mr. Guo should be my friend!" Ye Xiao chuckled.

Just then, Yang Ming walked to the doorway of the inner room and quietly closed the door, obviously not wanting others to hear Ye Xiao's phone conversation, which pleased Ye Xiao about Yang Ming!

Guo Pincheng, hearing Ye Xiao's words, quickly said, "Being friends with Mr. Ye is an honor for Guo, it's just..."

"Are you talking about the video?" Ye Xiao said with a smile. "Mr. Guo, rest assured, I am very fair to my friends. I wouldn't do anything to harm them, so you have nothing to worry about. Of course, I'm talking about friends!"

Ye Xiao's final remark really hit home, making Guo Pincheng break out in a cold sweat.

Ye Xiao's message was clear—he was great to friends but quite the opposite to enemies. Guo Pincheng understood that Ye Xiao was giving him a choice to be either Ye Xiao's friend or enemy!

It was a tough choice, at least for Guo Pincheng it was indeed very difficult.

At present, Guo Pincheng really didn't want to cooperate with Ye Xiao, because in his view, working with Ye Xiao was akin to courting disaster.

"Think it over. I don't need an immediate answer," Ye Xiao said, and then he hung up the phone.

He wasn't worried at all now. He believed that Guo Pincheng wasn't a fool and would surely agree; otherwise, if the video that Ye Xiao had were to leak, it would spell certain death for Guo family father and son.
