Chapter 30 - 30 026 Teaching He Jiaqiang a Lesson

30: Chapter 026: Teaching He Jiaqiang a Lesson 30: Chapter 026: Teaching He Jiaqiang a Lesson The rebellious girl Yaoyao was dressed more reliably this time, but she still flaunted her “individuality.” She wore a pair of blue canvas shoes, and a very loose black long T-shirt that almost covered her knees. As for what pants she was wearing, it was utterly invisible, perhaps a pair of ultra-short denim shorts. Upon seeing Ye Fan, she visibly froze, then turned to glance at Tantai Wanrong, then back at Ye Fan, her gaze distinctly unfriendly. Ye Fan knew why her gaze was unfriendly, and he silently smiled at her, revealing a row of pearly white, neatly aligned teeth. Tantai Wanrong had already called out, “Yaoyao, what are you dawdling at the door for? Come in and say hello to your Brother Ye.” “Oh,” she responded and walked in, closing the door behind her. She walked up to Tantai Wanrong’s hospital bed, sat down at the edge, and asked, “Auntie, are you feeling better now?” Tantai Wanrong, however, looked displeased and said sternly, “Yaoyao, why didn’t you greet your Brother Ye? How have I taught you all this time?” “I know,” she said reluctantly and stood up. She walked over to Ye Fan and said, “Brother Ye, hello. Thank you for saving my aunt. I’m very grateful to you.” “Hehe, don’t mention it, it’s only right,” said Ye Fan with a light smile. From behind, Tantai Wanrong asked, “And?” “Thank you for saving me,” said Yaoyao. Ye Fan nodded with a smile. Yaoyao walked back to the bed, sat down, and clenched her fist lightly to rub Tantai Wanrong’s legs. Ye Fan also finished cutting the fruit and brought it over to Tantai Wanrong. Yaoyao instantly stood up to take the fruit plate and used her body to block Ye Fan, intentionally or unintentionally preventing him from getting close to Tantai Wanrong. Tantai Wanrong elegantly chewed on a small piece of apple she had picked up with a toothpick, chewed it five or six times, then swallowed. She turned her head and sighed to Ye Fan, “Yaoyao was a very polite and sensible child when she was young, but these past two or three years, she has become more and more rebellious. Her parents divorced early and neither paid much attention to her. Little Fan, you have to be patient with her.” “Auntie, how can you talk about me in front of strangers?” protested Yaoyao, pouting unhappily. Tantai Wanrong’s beautiful eyes flared as she said, “What strangers? Little Fan is family. He saved you and also saved me; is he still an outsider?” Yaoyao lowered her head. Ye Fan lightened the mood with a laugh, “Hehe, don’t worry, Aunt Rong, I will be patient with her.” “Mhm,” Tantai Wanrong nodded and said, “Perhaps I’ve been too busy with work these past two or three years, not having the time to care for her. Little Fan, if you have the time, could you help Aunt Rong keep an eye on her, to prevent her from getting too wild and getting into trouble.” “Hehe, sure,” Ye Fan replied perfunctorily. Yaoyao wasn’t at all to his liking, and he had no interest in meddling in this unnecessary affair. Moreover, Yaoyao clearly didn’t like him either; getting involved with her was purely thankless and laborious. A smile appeared on Tantai Wanrong’s pretty face as she said, “By the way, Yaoyao’s full name is Tai Mengyao.” After a few more words, with Tai Mengyao’s hostile eyes upon him, Ye Fan felt that the conversation couldn’t be cheerful, so he took his leave. As for introducing a girlfriend, he didn’t take it seriously at all, and Tantai Wanrong didn’t want to bring it up in front of her niece. … … The next day, Ye Fan uncommonly rose early, driving out just after seven.

He had promised Lu Xiaoman that he would no longer be late for work; he couldn’t forget so soon. At 8:53 AM, Ye Fan entered the office and immediately called out, “Sister Xiaoman, I’m not late this time, am I?” Lu Xiaoman, seeing the smug, triumphant look on Ye Fan’s face, couldn’t help but cover her mouth and giggle, a sweet feeling rising in her heart because Ye Fan cared about what she said. “What’s up?” Ye Fan looked at Lu Xiaoman with a puzzled face, then looked down at his entire body, finding nothing amiss. Lu Xiaoman stopped giggling and said with a smile, “Well noted. Keep it up.” “Hehe, is there a reward?” Ye Fan asked with a greasy smile. Lu Xiaoman gave him a disapproving glare and said, “Being punctual is your duty. Are you suggesting that being late to work is normal for you?” “Isn’t it?” Ye Fan stated righteously. Lu Xiaoman huffed, “The day you get fired will certainly not be an injustice.” Ye Fan walked over and sat on Lu Xiaoman’s desk, starting to chat and joke with her. After a while, the office door was pushed open. Ye Fan turned his head and saw He Jiaqiang walk in with his big belly protruding. Lu Xiaoman also heard the noise and looked up to see it was He Jiaqiang. Forgetting her shyness, she quickly stood up. He Jiaqiang saw Ye Fan sitting on Lu Xiaoman’s desk, and Lu Xiaoman’s face flushed with embarrassment. Even a fool would know that Ye Fan was flirting with Lu Xiaoman. A rush of anger shot straight to his forehead. Lu Xiaoman was his forbidden fruit; how could he allow Ye Fan, this brat, to lay a finger on her! In an uncontrollable rage, He Jiaqiang pointed at Ye Fan and bellowed, “Ye Fan! You’re not working seriously during work hours and even dare to flirt with a female colleague! You’re fired, I’m reporting this immediately!!!” “Give it a rest,” Ye Fan, still sitting on the desk, said casually with a lazy look, glancing sideways at He Jiaqiang, “You’ve said you’re firing me probably more than ten times now, and yet here I am, still sitting here.” “You, you, you…” He Jiaqiang was so enraged that his face turned red and his chest heaved violently. Lu Xiaoman said softly, “Manager He, Ye Fan didn’t harass me.” He Jiaqiang whirled to look at Lu Xiaoman, his anger spilling over onto her as he cursed, “You have no shame! No decency! Bitch! …” He was in mid-tirade, his voice suddenly cut off as if someone had grabbed a duck’s throat tightly. Ye Fan’s hand was seen gripping He Jiaqiang’s neck, slowly lifting him into the air. He emanated a terrifying aura, his gaze cold, bloodthirsty, and ruthless. He Jiaqiang’s hands clawed desperately at Ye Fan’s grip, his hefty body struggling in vain, but he couldn’t break free at all. His entire face quickly turned purple, his mouth opening and closing without a sound. Lu Xiaoman was shocked by the scene, and it took her several seconds to react. She hurried over, tugging at Ye Fan’s hand, and cried out, “Ye Fan, let go, you’re going to kill him…” Ye Fan ignored Lu Xiaoman, his gaze fixed on He Jiaqiang, and said coldly, “Keep your mouth clean in the future! Or else, hmph!” He Jiaqiang nodded frantically, filled with fear. Only then did Ye Fan let go, dropping He Jiaqiang. He Jiaqiang bent over, gasping for air, coughing violently due to the forceful breathing. Lu Xiaoman breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the cool Ye Fan, feeling that he was like a mountain, protecting her, giving her an unprecedented sense of security. After a while, He Jiaqiang finally recovered. He glanced at Ye Fan with residual fear, then quickly looked away, not daring to scold him even in the slightest. Without daring to even leave with a courtesy, he slinked out of the office. As for his original plan to reprimand Ye Fan and arrange a contract with Gao Feng for a job switch, that thought didn’t dare surface anymore.
