187 Poor Ye Shaojie

sible for receiving guests felt rather puzzled as well. Because they saw a Volvo just pull up to the front gate; in such an area where luxury cars gathered, this Volvo looked quite ordinary. But that...Chapter 187: Poor Ye Shaojie

"When you have the time, give me a call. Grandfather has always wanted to thank you in person. I also hope that our family can eat a meal together." said Ye Mengying softly.

"Alright, I'll go after a few days," Summer replied after thinking about it. Actually, he would rather spend some alone time with the beautiful sister; knowing he had to have a meal with Ye Tiansouth made him less enthusiastic.

“Okay then, let’s make that our plan,” said Ye Mengying happily. "Oh right, why did you come here to rent a writing room Are you planning on opening a company"

"Yes, Miss Ye, we're preparing to start a technology company," Kong Ming answered.

“That’s great. I’ve always admired people who work in tech,” said Ye Mengying with a slight smile. "I believe you will definitely succeed."

“Thank you for your blessing, Miss Ye,” replied Kong Ming somewhat bashfully. “Actually, we’re just working for Summer; he's the big boss.”

"Oh" said Ye Mengying in surprise. "Can you tell me more about it"

With Ye Mengying showing interest, Kong Ming naturally jumped at the chance to introduce her to the basic situation of the yet-to-be-established Blue Sky Technology Company and also mentioned the difficulties they encountered when renting a writing room.

"How big of a writing room do you need" Ye Mengying asked after listening.

"About forty to fifty square meters would be enough. We're just a small company," Kong Ming hurriedly answered.

"Hmm, there is an office space of over one hundred square meters on the 68th floor that's currently vacant. If you like it, you can use it as your company’s office." Ye Mengying thought for a moment and then spoke up.

Kong Ming was initially delighted but then shook her head somewhat embarrassedly: "Miss Ye, we couldn’t afford the rent on such a big place."

"You could start off by owing the rent. Once your company starts making money, you can pay me back then," Ye Mengying smiled faintly. "You can consider it first; if you feel good about it, I’ll sign an agreement with you after we’re done eating."

"This…" Kong Ming glanced at Sun Xinxin. She still couldn’t figure out what the relationship was between Xia Tian and Ye Mengying, let alone why Sun Xinxin seemed to ignore their intimate behavior.

“The dishes have arrived, let's eat.” Ye Mengying smiled faintly as the pretty woman who had led them in began serving the food.

The lunch was very sumptuous. While Kong Ming couldn’t help but think about how frivolous rich people could be, she still found herself reaching for more food. Xia Tian always ate a lot, and today was no exception. Sun Xinxin and Ye Mengying didn't eat much though; whether it was because they were preoccupied with something or simply had small appetites, Kong Ming couldn’t tell.

After finishing the meal, which took more than an hour, Kong Ming finally decided to rent out that office space. It wasn’t just because she could temporarily owe the rent but also because this office belonged to Tian Nan Group. This implied some kind of hidden advantage for their new tech company. In summary, renting this place seemed like a deal with many benefits and no downsides.

Of course, Kong Ming was not stupid; she knew that it wasn’t just free money falling from the sky but rather due to Xia Tian being the big boss of the new company. If Xia Tian hadn't been involved, Ye Mengying wouldn’t have offered them this deal.

The group returned to Hai Jiang Tower and took an elevator straight up to the 68th floor.

"Miss Ye!"

"Good afternoon, Miss Ye!"

...

In the corridor, everyone greeted Ye Mengying politely as they saw her. However, she only nodded slightly in response and did not smile at all, appearing cold and indifferent. Kong Ming found this strange; she had just seen Ye Mengying smiling warmly, thinking that Ye was approachable. Now it seemed otherwise—the smiles on Ye's face were likely due to seeing Xia Tian.

Ye Mengying led Kong Ming to the office space she mentioned, which Kong Ming immediately felt satisfied with upon first sight. Then, they went to Ye’s office to sign a contract. Not only did Ye charge merely 10,000 yuan per month for rent but also allowed indefinite delays in payment—essentially giving it away.

This further made Kong Ming realize that the relationship between Xia Tian and Ye Mengying was extraordinary.

"Move out of my way! I want to see Ye Mengying!" A furious roar suddenly echoed outside the office as soon as they finished signing the contract.

Hearing this voice, Xia Tian sitting beside felt interested; wasn't this the fool, Ye Shaojie

"Let him in," Ye Mengying spoke out to someone outside.

Quickly after, Ye Shaojie appeared at the office door. Seeing Xia Tian and Sun Xinxin also inside, Ye Shaojie seemed stunned for a moment but then angrily shouted at Ye Mengying: "What do you mean by this You've taken back my car, my house, even frozen my credit card; are you trying to drive me to death"

"It seems you've made a mistake. That car and house aren't yours; they were purchased with Tiannan Group's funds that you embezzled for your own benefit. You misappropriated large sums of money from Tiannan Group, or more precisely, stole my money to spend," Ye Mengying said in an icy tone. "I didn’t call the police on you because you’re my cousin. Be grateful for this favor; otherwise, you’d be behind bars by now."

"Ye Mengying, don’t overstep!" Ye Shaojie’s expression turned nasty. "If you leave me no way out, we’ll see who suffers more in the end!"

"Do you think you can intimidate me" Ye Mengying smiled coldly.

Summer standing beside them was unhappy with this: "Hey, idiot Shaojie! Are you trying to get yourself killed You should thank your lucky stars I didn’t finish you off last time. How dare you threaten my wife again Do you want me to throw you out the window from the 68th floor right now"

"Go ahead if you have the guts!" Ye Shaojie shouted at Summer. "Anyway, I can't live like this anymore after being tormented by both of you!"

Summer was a little puzzled: "If you want to end it all, why don’t you just kill yourself Based on my professional judgment, jumping from the 68th floor would definitely result in your death."

"Want me to commit suicide Not so simple!" Ye Shaojie glared fiercely at Summer. "Even if I die, I’ll take you guys down with me!"

"Summer, ignore him; let me handle this," Ye Mengying stopped Summer from responding and then looked coldly at Ye Shaojie. “You can leave now. Also, I want to remind you that the funds you embezzled cannot be offset by your houses or cars. As for how much more you owe me, someone will provide you with a detailed figure."

"What" Upon hearing this, Ye Shaojie almost fainted in anger. "Ye Mengying, are you trying to force me into begging on the streets"

“You may leave now,” said Ye Mengying as she waved her hand dismissively. “Remember to leave your ring here; it belongs to Tiannan Group’s assets.”

"Ye Mengying, you..." This time, Ye Shaojie really felt like jumping out of a window.

"I believe you must want to leave this building gracefully" Ye Mengying said coldly.

"Fine, we'll see about that!" With hatred in his eyes, Ye Shaojie glared at Ye Mengying and walked away. He could tell from her words that if he didn't leave voluntarily, she would have someone else force him out.

Ye Shaojie stormed off angrily, but Xia Tian felt a bit disappointed; he had actually wanted to kill this guy right then and there. But since Ye Mengying just told him not to intervene, he held back.

Even after seeing Ye Shaojie leave, Xia Tian still couldn't let go: "Sis, do you want me to take care of that idiotic Ye Shaojie He's really annoying."

Ye Mengying shook her head. "No, I need him alive."

"Why" Xia Tian was puzzled.

"I’ve been in charge of the Sky South Group for a short time and there are many people within the Ye family who pretend to cooperate with me but actually don't. I need someone to set an example, and Ye Shaojie is the perfect candidate," Ye Mengying didn’t hide her intentions, even though others were around; she wasn’t bothered about them knowing her purpose: "I want them all to see how Ye Shaojie goes from being one of the four renowned young men in Jianghai to a destitute beggar on the streets!"

She paused for a moment and then continued, "For Ye Shaojie, death isn’t the worst thing; poverty is. Living without money will be more painful than death!"

"Got it. Then let him suffer a while longer." After understanding Ye Mengying’s intention, Xia Tian no longer wanted to kill Ye Shaojie immediately.

Sun Xinxin couldn't help but ask, "Ms. Ye, aren’t you afraid of his retaliation"

Ye Mengying smiled calmly, "I’m actually waiting for him to retaliate; I just hope he has the guts."

Sun Xinxin wasn’t stupid either, and upon hearing this, she understood that Ye Mengying had been prepared all along. If Xiaojie really wanted to take revenge on her, his end would be even worse.

"You’re my rose, you’re my flower..." A familiar ringtone suddenly went off, and Sun Xinxin realized it was her phone ringing. She quickly took out her phone and saw that Fang Xiaoru had called.

"Xiaoru, what’s wrong Is the florist shop too busy" Upon answering the call, Sun Xinxin asked hurriedly.

"Senior Sister Xinxin, it’s bad! A group of nasty guys have blocked off our flower shop!" Fang Xiaoru's voice on the other end sounded very anxious.

"What !" Sun Xinxin was shocked. "What happened What do they want"

"They say they’re looking for Xia Tian, but I don’t know what’s going on. Ask Xia Tian, see who he has offended!" Fang Xiaoru sounded very panicked. "Senior Sister Xinxin, you need to get Xia Tian over here and sort this out! They said if Xia Tian doesn’t show up within half an hour, they’re going to smash the flower shop."

"Alright, we’ll head back right away!" Sun Xinxin replied quickly before hanging up. She turned to look at the man beside her and said, "Xia Tian, there’s trouble at the florist shop; we need to go back as soon as possible!"

"Oh, okay." Xia Tian looked at Ye Mengying. "Sis, I’ll have to take my leave then."e police station immediately!""Oh, since Miss Policewoman wants me so badly, then I'll go right over," Xia Tian said this sentence, and Leng Bingbing hung up the phone in a fit of anger."Where are you...
