Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 838: The Simplest and Most Direct Method


"But I can't just be a puppet, right? Was I, Fu Donglai, born to take orders?" Fu Donglai was extremely angry at that moment.

Zhang Quan couldn't possibly be unaware of Fu Donglai's anger, but he also knew that there was nothing they could do now. Moreover, they still didn't know whether Ye Xiao really had that video recording or not.

"I've always been puzzled. How on earth did Ye Xiao get hold of the so-called video recording? Could it be that we have a traitor in our midst?" Zhang Quan frowned and said.

Upon hearing Zhang Quan's words, Fu Donglai's face immediately turned extremely sullen, and he said coldly, "Secretly investigate, and if we find out who it is, I'll skin them alive!"

Fu Donglai's words were no joke. After planning for so many years to escape the fate of being manipulated, he might now end up being permanently controlled by others. If Fu Donglai ever found out who was behind it, he would undoubtedly kill them.

"Yes, right. Young Master, you mustn't act rashly. At the very least, we need to wait a bit. If Ye Xiao really sends you the video, we'll see what happens next," Zhang Quan reminded Fu Donglai.

Fu Donglai nodded and said, "Got it."

Meanwhile, as Fu Donglai seethed with fury, Ye Xiao was happily enjoying breakfast, finding the millet porridge more delicious than ever. At that moment, Xia Mingyue emerged from the bathroom after washing up, appearing with a bare face, no makeup!

Ye Xiao looked up at Xia Mingyue, who was wearing a white sweater with similarly white pants at the time.

As the saying goes, "If you want to be chic, dress all in black and white." White sometimes seems to symbolize bad luck, but you have to admit, it's the purest and most beautiful.

Xia Mingyue had always struck Ye Xiao as a strong urban woman, but at this moment, she gave him the impression of a demure young girl, a very cute one at that.

"What are you looking at?" Xia Mingyue frowned as she noticed Ye Xiao staring at her somewhat shamelessly.

Everything was fine; it would be even better if her attitude were a bit warmer. Of course, Ye Xiao wouldn't make such a request.

"It's nothing. I just think the sweater's yarn is top-grade, probably not cheap!" Ye Xiao mumbled.

How could Xia Mingyue not know Ye Xiao was trying to fool her? She deliberately looked indifferent and said, "You know about yarn?"

"Of course, I know a lot." Ye Xiao smiled smugly, and then, fearing Xia Mingyue would pursue the topic of yarn identification, he quickly changed the subject, saying, "Hurry up and eat, the millet porridge is getting cold."

Xia Mingyue sat down at the dining table, then looked up at Ye Xiao and said, "The evidence?"

"You need evidence for breakfast?" Ye Xiao, with a piece of scallion pancake in his mouth, looked at Xia Mingyue with a puzzled expression.

Xia Mingyue promptly said, "Who wants the evidence for breakfast? Wang Dongliang's evidence!"

Upon hearing Xia Mingyue's words, Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "Oh, you mean that evidence, yes, I have it."

Ye Xiao then pulled out the USB drive given to him by Huang Tian and placed it on the dining table, saying, "Want to watch it now?"

"It's best to check it first!" Xia Mingyue said.

Ye Xiao immediately stood up and walked over to the TV. Xia Mingyue's TV was smart, so playing the video from a USB drive was a piece of cake. Soon, an image appeared on the TV screen, showing the inside of a small private room in a bar.

The video clearly showed two people Xia Mingyue knew: Wang Dongliang and He Huawei.

"It's really the two of them!" Xia Mingyue said, somewhat taken aback while watching the television screen.

Ye Xiao smiled softly but said nothing, intently watching instead.

Soon, Wang Dongliang and He Huawei were sighing about the payment issue. He Huawei mentioned he hadn't caused much trouble for Blue Star Technology, so the final payment needed renegotiation. Wang Dongliang was unhappy with that, so he disclosed everything He Huawei had asked him to do, causing He Huawei to lose face. Eventually, He Huawei agreed to pay but said it would be the next day.

The video lasted roughly over twenty minutes, and judging by its content, it was enough to prove Wang Dongliang and He Huawei's conspiracy.

"My innocence is preserved," Ye Xiao smiled.

Xia Mingyue gave Ye Xiao a sidelong glance, saying, "Keep the video safe. Today, I'm going to make sure they all go to jail."

Xia Mingyue's voice was icy, clearly indicating her anger towards the two for plotting against Blue Star Technology.

"The thing about videos is that they might not necessarily be admissible in court. Therefore, we need a witness," Ye Xiao said with a smile at Xia Mingyue.

Xia Mingyue listened to Ye Xiao's words, looking at him in puzzlement and saying, "What do you mean?"

Ye Xiao said, "If Wang Dongliang agrees to be our witness, do you think He Huawei will still have a good time?"

"Wang Dongliang isn't a decent person either," Xia Mingyue replied.

Ye Xiao chuckled and said, "I know he's not a decent person, but don't you think it'd be better if he could be of use to us? Wang Dongliang is just a small-time opportunist, easy to handle, but He Huawei is clearly in a similar position to you. People like him are best dealt with legally to ensure justice is served and convincing."

Listening to Ye Xiao, Xia Mingyue said nonchalantly, "I didn't expect you to think so thoroughly."

Upon hearing Xia Mingyue's words, Ye Xiao immediately snickered and said, "Of course, who do you think I am?"

Xia Mingyue gave Ye Xiao a sideways glance and said, "Calling you chubby, you're really out of breath."

Ye Xiao chuckled, packed away the USB drive, then returned to the dining table, smiling as he said, "I'll be taking a leave of absence this morning."

"Where are you off to this time?" Xia Mingyue raised her eyebrows and looked at Ye Xiao.

After all, Ye Xiao was her personal driver, constantly disappearing every few days. Although his salary was a bit low, she did pay him, didn't she?

Ye Xiao chuckled and said to Xia Mingyue, "Just a small matter."

Xia Mingyue glanced at Ye Xiao, thought for a moment, then said, "It's Miss Wang, isn't it?"

"Huh?" Ye Xiao was puzzled upon hearing Xia Mingyue's words; he then smiled and said, "Why do you always pin everything on her? Hasn't she already told you about our relationship?"

Xia Mingyue looked at Ye Xiao, and Ye Xiao looked back at her.

"I've had enough. You finish the rest!" Xia Mingyue said after drinking only half a bowl of Little Mi porridge.

Ye Xiao immediately looked at Xia Mingyue and said, "You haven't eaten the scallion pancakes yet."

"I don't like eating greasy food in the morning." Xia Mingyue tossed this remark and strode towards her room.

Ye Xiao looked at the scallion pancakes on the table. What should he do? This is all bought with money, just eat.

Not long after, Xia Mingyue emerged from the bedroom in a business outfit, shedding some of her earlier cuteness for a more glamorous look.

"Let's go!" Xia Mingyue looked at Ye Xiao.

Ye Xiao quickly nodded, picked up a napkin to wipe his mouth, then tossed the food bag into the trash before he headed out with Xia Mingyue.

Downstairs!

As Xia Mingyue's personal driver, what Ye Xiao naturally has to do is drive well.

The Ferrari quickly left Tulip District, with Xia Mingyue sitting in the back seat. She suddenly said aloud, "How do you think we can get Wang Dongliang to listen to us? By threat and incentive?"

"Threat and incentive is obviously the best approach," Ye Xiao said, "It's also the simplest and most straightforward approach."

"Alright, then you handle it."

"Huh?" Ye Xiao immediately looked at the rearview mirror and said, "Me?"

"Yeah," Xia Mingyue said, "In this kind of matter, do you really expect me to step in? Here's the deal: if you handle this well, you'll get your leave this morning."

"No way, Ming Yue, this is heavy-handed trading." Ye Xiao immediately wanted to defend his rights.

However, Xia Mingyue wasn't having any of this; she promptly said, "Really? Why don't I feel that way? I do feel that you're quite the disobedient employee, and I should assign some work this morning."

"Alright, you win. I'll handle it, okay? Let me be the bad guy!" Ye Xiao's face showed a look of bitterness.

Xia Mingyue didn't say much more on the issue, only directed Ye Xiao to go to Fang Jing's community to pick her up.

So, the Ferrari quickly headed toward Fang Jing's community.

Shortly, the Ferrari stopped at the entrance of Huafeng District, where Fang Jing was standing wearing a long pink down jacket, looking very pure at first glance.

"Why are you dressed like a student today? Are you going on a blind date?" After Fang Jing got in the car, Ye Xiao immediately chuckled and said.

Fang Jing glanced at Ye Xiao and said, "Does a girl like me, who possesses both wisdom and charm, still need to go on blind dates? Don't you know the male-to-female ratio in Yan Country is three to one now? You better start thinking about your own life matters."

Ye Xiao touched his nose upon hearing Fang Jing's words, chuckling, "In that case, show some pity for me."

"Ming Yue, can we go settle accounts with Wang Dongliang now?" Fang Jing directly disregarded Ye Xiao and spoke to Xia Mingyue.

Ye Xiao was suddenly left in the lurch.

Xia Mingyue smiled and said, "That would depend on Ye Xiao's performance."

At this time, Ye Xiao suddenly cleared his throat and looked at Xia Mingyue, saying, "Mr. Xia, you're right. If I don't handle this well, I won't take leave this morning. After all, I don't really have much to do, right Assistant Fang?"

Fang Jing was a little stunned upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, and when she heard him mention taking leave, she immediately understood it must be related to seeing Liu Wenzhuo.

Fang Jing looked at Ye Xiao for a full two seconds before saying, "I believe Ye Xiao can handle it well."

Xia Mingyue was puzzled when she heard Fang Jing's sudden change of tone, but she didn't say anything more.
