After seeing Jiang Miaoke's call, Ye Xiao immediately chose to answer it.

Jiang Miaoke hadn't called him in two days, and he couldn't help but wonder why she suddenly remembered him. Although walking down the street with such a stunning beauty like Jiang Miaoke was something to be proud of, the issue was, this rich young lady was no ordinary person.

Sure enough, as soon as he picked up the call, Ye Xiao regretted it.

"Ye Xiao, what's the matter with you? It's been two days, did you forget about me? Not even a single call. Do you really think I'm that desperate for you?" Jiang Miaoke's sharp voice came through the phone.

Ye Xiao immediately forced a wry smile and quickly said, "Coco, what's got you so heated up? I've been busy. If I had time, I would've definitely asked you out for some shopping."

"Really?" Upon hearing Ye Xiao's words, Jiang Miaoke's displeasure diminished slightly, but she still asked, "So what are you doing right now?"

After the last incident where Ye Xiao lied to Jiang Miaoke and got caught, he dared not lie to her recklessly again. He answered honestly, "I just had a drink with a friend's dad and am now planning to run some errands."

"What kind of errands? You're not going to meet some girl, are you?" Jiang Miaoke suspiciously asked.

Ye Xiao immediately replied, "Heaven knows I'm innocent, there's no way such a thing would happen to me. I swear to the heavens, what I'm about to do has absolutely nothing to do with meeting girls."

"Alright, I believe you, then what are you going to do?" Jiang Miaoke clearly had the determination to get to the bottom of it.

Ye Xiao asked, "You really want to know?"

"Duh, of course, I want to know. It's never anything good behind someone's back," Jiang Miaoke said playfully.

Ye Xiao gave a wry smile, realizing he had to confess. If he didn't, it seemed like he was really up to no good. However, going to Tulong Company wasn't particularly bad, so Ye Xiao directly said, "Actually, it's no big deal, just going to a company to handle some business."

"Hehe, sounds kind of exciting, count me in," Jiang Miaoke chimed in.

Ye Xiao said, "Wait a minute, Coco, you're still a student, right? Shouldn't you be in class now? How do you have time to call me?"

"Didn't you go to school?" Jiang Miaoke asked, slightly surprised.

Ye Xiao immediately said, "Honestly, no."

If it weren't for serving as Ling Shuya's bodyguard in Minghai City, Ye Xiao probably wouldn't have even set foot in a school, let alone attended classes.

"No wonder you don't even know that school schedules can be pretty relaxed. I don't have classes this afternoon. So, what? Does it sound like you don't want to take me along? Or are you starting to despise me? Don't forget, our relationship isn't ordinary now, even if we're pretending, we still have to play the part convincingly," Jiang Miaoke said.

Ye Xiao understood that if he didn't want Jiang Miaoke to be happy, it would be hard for her to make anyone else happy.

But taking Jiang Miaoke to such a place, was that really okay?

"There could be a bloody incident, won't you be scared?" Ye Xiao deliberately said.

"For real?" Jiang Miaoke said in surprise.

Ye Xiao noticed the surprise in Jiang Miaoke's voice, as if she wasn't very interested. He quickly said, "Of course it's true, you can't not believe me."

Who knew that Jiang Miaoke would suddenly get excited, saying to Ye Xiao, "That's great, it's been a long time since I've seen a fight, perfect time to sharpen my mind! Where are you? I'll come as your personal driver."

Ye Xiao's mouth twitched a bit, wondering if maybe he should have described it as more boring.

However, since Jiang Miaoke had already decided to come, and it seemed she had made up her mind, Ye Xiao knew it wouldn't be easy to change her decision. So, he had no choice but to tell her his location, and Jiang Miaoke said she'd be there soon.

After hanging up Jiang Miaoke's call, Ye Xiao called Yan Luo to ask about the exact location of Tulong Company.

Upon hearing that Ye Xiao was going to Tulong Company, Yan Luo immediately said in surprise, "Brother Xiao, I'll go with you."

"No need, I can handle it on my own," Ye Xiao replied.

Yan Luo immediately said, "How can this work? Brother Xiao, Tulong Company isn't as simple as you might think. Most of their people are pretty capable. If I go with you, at least I can handle a few of them."

"Don't worry, I'm just going to have a discussion with them. If I can't handle it, I'll definitely call you for backup," Ye Xiao said with a chuckle.

Ye Xiao said this to ease Yan Luo's mind. If even Ye Xiao couldn't handle it, then Yan Luo going would simply be a death sentence, so it was better not to go at all.

In fact, Ye Xiao initially planned to have Yan Luo accompany him to deal with Tulong Company and to enhance Yan Luo's reputation. However, after hearing some rumors about Tulong Company from Zheng Senlin, Ye Xiao dismissed the idea. He realized that Tulong Company was different from what he had imagined, and it wasn't like ordinary companies. Yan Luo wasn't ready to directly confront Tulong Company yet. If things went wrong and Tulong Company targeted Yan Luo, wouldn't that be the end for him?

This was something Ye Xiao absolutely could not let happen and was the last thing he wanted to see.

Although Yan Luo really wanted to go, Ye Xiao eventually stated that it was an order.

Ye Xiao's orders were something Yan Luo couldn't disobey, no matter what.

About twenty minutes later, Ye Xiao, who was smoking at the bus stop, saw a Porsche pull up in front of him. The passenger-side window rolled down, revealing Jiang Miaoke in the driver's seat.

Jiang Miaoke was wearing a cute, white, lightweight jacket today, but at this moment, her face was anything but cute. She was frowning, glaring at the half-burnt cigarette in Ye Xiao's hand, and said, "Aren't you going to toss that cigarette? Do you plan on smoking in my car?"

"Why not?" Ye Xiao smiled and said, "You're my chauffeur today; since when can chauffeurs be so bossy?"

"Shut up, toss the cigarette, and get in the car," Jiang Miaoke said to Ye Xiao in a commanding tone.

Upon hearing Jiang Miaoke's words, Ye Xiao frowned slightly. Jiang Miaoke was blatantly disregarding his male dignity. After all, there were a few kids at the bus stop, and this was really embarrassing. So Ye Xiao gritted his teeth, steeled his heart, and without a word, tossed the cigarette.

Ye Xiao finally got into the car, and also asked a nearby kid for a stick of green gum and popped it into his mouth.

"I thought you were going to do something." Jiang Miaoke chuckled and said.

Ye Xiao, chewing gum, glared at the kid who was glaring at him.

"Smoking is a bad habit and harmful to health," Ye Xiao said with a serious face. "So I've decided not to smoke in the car anymore."

"Does that even require a decision? It's my rule, isn't it?" Jiang Miaoke said with a straight face.

"Give me a break, those kids are staring at me. I'm a grown man, after all, and you've kept the car parked here," Ye Xiao really couldn't bear to look at the kid glaring at him anymore. He quickly took out ten yuan and handed it to the kid, saying, "Sorry, I shouldn't have taken your gum. Go buy another pack."

Unexpectedly, the kid glanced at the ten yuan in Ye Xiao's hand and said, "A gentleman does not accept charity."

And with that, the kid swaggered off.

Ye Xiao was left sitting in the car, feeling bewildered.

Jiang Miaoke proudly laughed at Ye Xiao and then said, "Boss, where to?"

Ye Xiao gave the location he got from Yan Luo to Jiang Miaoke. He really didn't want to stay here any longer. Seeing how the kid was acting, Ye Xiao was a little afraid that he might bring a group of kids to come after him.

"For heaven's sake, you're a grown man. How could you steal a kid's gum? It's embarrassing. It's a good thing the kid's mom wasn't around; otherwise, she'd have torn you apart," Jiang Miaoke said, laughing as she started the car.

Ye Xiao looked bitter. He really hadn't meant to snatch it; it was just that after throwing away the cigarette, he suddenly noticed the kid next to him had just opened a pack of green gum, so he naturally grabbed one and popped it into his mouth. To Ye Xiao, all of this seemed perfectly natural. Of course, that's just his perspective, not at all natural to the kid, who ended up scoffing at him.

After an entire journey of being teased, the Porsche finally stopped at the entrance of a place called the Flying Dragon Nightclub.

Because it was daytime, the Flying Dragon Nightclub was almost deserted, mostly occupied by those who managed the place. So when Ye Xiao and Jiang Miaoke arrived at the entrance, they were immediately stopped.

"Hello, we're not open now, please come back a bit later," a uniformed staff member at the entrance said to Ye Xiao. However, when his gaze fell upon Jiang Miaoke, he paused for a moment, clearly taken aback. Although he had seen many beauties here, there weren't many like Jiang Miaoke.

"If you're not open, then why is the door open?" Jiang Miaoke, hearing the staff member's response, was instantly displeased. She's the kind of girl filled with a violent streak, and upon hearing this, she was immediately unhappy.

"Apologies, please come back around five. It's about an hour before we open," the staff member replied, not forcefully, perhaps because Jiang Miaoke was so beautiful that any temper he might have had couldn't surface in front of her.
