Chapter 84 - Shameless Ex-Husband

Upon hearing the noise outside the door, Xiao Haimie’s willow brows furrowed, and her previously shy face was now covered with frost.

Ye Haochuan, however, was taken aback.

Cheating?

Cheating with whom?

Cheating with me?

“Sister Mei, shall I go open the door?” Ye Haochuan tentatively asked.

Xiao Haimie did not respond, still seething with anger.

Ye Haochuan took her silence as consent, and immediately got up to open the door.

As the door opened, two men appeared at the doorway, one of whom was none other than Xiao Ding, the young master with whom there had been an incident just that morning.

Standing next to Xiao Ding was an extremely handsome and mature-looking man, about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, with skin even whiter than a woman’s.

Calling him a pretty boy wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

His eyes always seemed to emit a lecherous glow, giving off an air of insatiable desire.

Ye Haochuan guessed that this man was undoubtedly the ex-husband of the beautiful chairman.

Behind them were Xiao Haimie’s female secretary and several bodyguards.

However, seeing their remorseful expressions, it was clear they felt guilty for failing to stop these two men from barging in.

“Ye Haochuan, damn it, it really is you!” At this moment, Xiao Ding, upon seeing Ye Haochuan, flew into a rage.

“Ye Haochuan?

You’re Ye Haochuan?

Son of a bitch, you dared seduce my wife; I’ll **** you up!”

Xiao Haimie’s ex-husband was furious, and with a lunge, he swung a punch at Ye Haochuan’s face.

“Shit!

You think you can?” Ye Haochuan, who had been on guard, caught his fist in his palm, and the man was suddenly unable to move.

Then, Ye Haochuan pushed him violently towards the door, making him stagger backward.

If it weren’t for Xiao Ding catching him in time, he probably would have had an intimate, back-to-back encounter with the wall in the corridor.

“Brother-in-law, how are you?

You alright?” Xiao Ding quickly asked.

Xiao Haimie’s ex-husband steadied himself and shook his head to indicate he was fine.

But soon after, he glared at Ye Haochuan with the rage of a bull, wishing he could tear him to pieces then and there.

At this time, Xiao Haimie walked over with an icy expression and stared at her ex-husband: “Yang Hao, what are you doing here?”

Seeing Xiao Haimie in a silk robe, Yang Hao’s eyes turned hot, and he gulped down his saliva.

Then, with a spiteful expression, he glared at Xiao Haimie and Ye Haochuan, clearly convinced that something unsavory had occurred between them.

“Well done, Xiao Haimie, you really are shameless, finding a pretty boy to fool around with in the room behind my back, do you have no shame?”

Yang Hao spat through clenched teeth.

With a sinister smile, Xiao Ding said, “Haimie, you were obviously fooling around in the office.

Tsk, tsk, you two really know how to play.

You’ve ruined the Xiao Family’s reputation.

I wonder how grandfather will protect you this time.”

“You…” Xiao Haimie was so angry she was lost for words.

Ye Haochuan naturally came to her defense, glaring fiercely at Xiao Ding: “If you don’t want to die, you’d better shut your mouth!”

Xiao Ding was startled, shrinking his neck and not daring to make another peep.

Xiao Haimie gratefully glanced at Ye Haochuan, then turned angrily to Yang Hao: “Yang Hao, what nonsense are you spouting?

Who is fooling around in here?

Doctor Ye was here to give me a massage.

You know that I have issues with my cervical and lumbar spine.”

“Massage?” Yang Hao scoffed coldly.

“Bullshit!

If it was a legitimate massage, why would you need to lock the door?”

“This is my office.

Whether I lock the door or not, what business is it of yours?” Xiao Haimie retorted angrily.

“Moreover, you’re just my ex-husband.

What right do you have to criticize my personal matters?”

Yang Hao was burning with rage: “Ex-husband?

Bullshit!

We’re not even divorced yet, so where does this ex-husband come from?”

“I gave you the divorce papers, and if you won’t sign them, whose fault is that?” Xiao Haimie countered.

“That settles it.

I happen to be carrying the divorce papers with me, so take this opportunity and sign them right now.”

“You want me to sign?

Humph, not a chance!” Yang Hao roared.

“You won’t sign, huh?” Xiao Haimei scoffed coldly, “No matter, according to the law, as long as a couple has been living apart for two years, the court can mandate a divorce.

I, Xiao Haimei, can wait two years.”

“You bitch, you’re so damned cruel!

I’m going to kill you!” In his furious rage, Yang Hao raised his hand and attempted to slap Xiao Haimei across the face.

Seeing this, Ye Haochuan, who was nearby, couldn’t stand by and quickly grabbed Yang Hao’s wrist, saying coldly, “What?

You dare to hit a woman here?”

“You bastard, who the hell are you?

You’re just a pretty boy living off a woman, what right do you have to be arrogant in front of me?

Let go, do you hear me, let go right now!” Yang Hao barked.

He’s calling someone else a pretty boy living off a woman, but what was he himself?

“Let go, your mother!” Ye Haochuan raised his hand and fiercely slapped Yang Hao’s face.

With a smack, a bright red palm print appeared on half of Yang Hao’s cheek.

“You dare hit me?” Yang Hao roared in anger.

“So what if I hit you?” Ye Haochuan slapped him fiercely once again.

Instantly, the other half of Yang Hao’s face now also bore a bright red palm print.

Yang Hao completely lost his temper, struggling furiously, wanting to fight Ye Haochuan to the death, but unfortunately, his feeble attempts were no match for Ye Haochuan.

Before long, he was thoroughly trounced by Ye Haochuan, bruised and battered, his face swollen up, his body covered with injuries, even two of his teeth knocked loose.

Xiao Ding, who was to the side, several times wanted to step forward to help, but thinking of how Ye Haochuan displayed his formidable might at Chenghuang Temple, he was somewhat apprehensive and dared not act recklessly.

It was only because Xiao Haimei was afraid the situation would escalate that she had Ye Haochuan stop, preventing Yang Hao from being further savagely beaten.

“Yang Hao, this is the divorce agreement.

Sign it and get out,” Xiao Haimei brought a set of divorce papers over and threw them in front of Yang Hao.

Without even looking, Yang Hao said hatefully, “You want me to sign the divorce papers?

Impossible!”

“You…” Xiao Haimei was infuriated, thinking how she had been blind to overlook such a scoundrel before?

“What exactly will it take for you to agree to a divorce?” Xiao Haimei conceded a step.

“I’ll say it again, no divorce, no way!” Yang Hao shouted, wiping the blood off his face and glaring resentfully at Ye Haochuan, “Ye Haochuan, you bastard, just you wait, I’ll get revenge for this!”

Ye Haochuan scoffed disdainfully, “Anytime.”

“Let’s go!” Yang Hao signaled Xiao Ding with his eyes, and the two scoundrels left in a sorry state.

Xiao Haimei’s female secretary and bodyguards then stepped forward, apologizing to her repeatedly.

Xiao Haimei, still furious, scolded, “There are so many of you, yet you couldn’t stop two men, what good are you?

Pack up your things and get out!”

The female secretary and bodyguards fell silent, feeling wronged inside.

After all, it was an internal matter of the Xiao Family, and as outsiders, much less employees, how could they have intervened?

Ye Haochuan, witnessing the scene, felt a pang of compassion and advised, “Sister Mei, let it go, it’s not their fault.

Facing your peculiar ex-husband and big brother, no one could have stopped them.”

Xiao Haimei was about to say it’s none of your business but, seeing him coming over with a stern brow and cold eyes, seemingly threatening her, she suddenly realized not only did she rely on him for her neck and back, but she also needed to secure Gu Kaizhi’s authentic works from him.

A fallout wouldn’t be good.

Feeling she had no choice, she waved her hand, signaling the secretary and bodyguards to leave.

Upon seeing this, the secretary and bodyguards, breathing a sigh of relief and with a grateful look towards Ye Haochuan, quietly withdrew.

After causing such a commotion, Ye Haochuan felt that staying any longer would only invite criticism.

As he was about to take his leave, he heard Xiao Haimei say, “Doctor Ye, thank you for just now.

By the way, do you have some time?

I’d like to treat you to a meal.”
