Chapter 17

Update Time: 2013-03-22

The next period of time was the happiest for Zhang Yang.

Wang Yue transformed Zhang Yang from a clumsy boy who didn't know how to dress himself into a well-groomed young man who styled his hair with gel every day. She helped him get rid of the habit of touching his head when nervous and taught him to habitually tap the table when thinking.

Wang Yue even joked with Zhang Yang, saying, "Big Yang, when you tap the table while thinking, you really look like a big shot."

Every time this happened, Zhang Yang would smile foolishly.

Zhang Yang learned how to wear suits and ties, knew when to wear sportswear and when to wear suits, and how to dress fashionably and with taste. He also learned about many well-known brands, no longer thinking that Nike and Adidas were the best clothes.

He learned to eat Western food, using knives and forks skillfully. He knew that fast food wasn't just McDonald's and KFC, but also included Pizza Hut, Häagen-Dazs, Wendy's, Domino's Pizza, Yoshinoya, Mos Burger, and Dicos.

He also learned that the world had more than just white wine and beer; there were red wine, champagne, whisky, and cocktails.

Zhang Yang even got his driver's license. In the second month of being with Wang Yue, Zhang Yang won his second big prize and bought a Passat, because Wang Yue didn't like Japanese cars. In fact, he had always wanted to buy a BMW, because he never forgot the image of Mr. Niu driving away in a BMW after receiving the money!

He was like a diligent student, eagerly absorbing all the knowledge he could, slowly growing.

Wang Yue was like an encyclopedia, constantly teaching Zhang Yang various survival skills in society. These were Wang Yue's experiences, specifically what she had learned during her time as a mistress, which she gradually imparted to Zhang Yang.

Because of her subjective bias, Wang Yue inadvertently also passed on some of Xiao Fei's ways of doing things to Zhang Yang.

Time passed unnoticed until one day, Zhang Yang left home to look for a storefront.

The two had decided to open a clothing store and do some small business.

After living with Zhang Yang for so long, Wang Yue's initial intentions to use him had completely disappeared. She truly fell in love with this sunny, simple, and kind boy, and more importantly, this man was her creation.

Immersed in happiness, Wang Yue suddenly heard the door open, which was strange. Why did Zhang Yang return so quickly? She stood up to go and open the door.

Before she could open it, the door was already pushed open.

Seeing Niu Jinda's fat, smiling face, Wang Yue's heart sank. She was jolted awake from her dream; what was coming had finally arrived.

"It's not that clumsy boy, are you disappointed?" a voice came from behind Niu Jinda.

Wang Yue's face turned deathly pale.

"It's you!" Wang Yue said, her lips trembling, a flash of hatred in her eyes.

Niu Jinda moved aside, and Xiao Fei walked in with a haughty expression, sitting down on the sofa with a swagger.

"What are you doing here? We have nothing to do with each other anymore," Wang Yue said.

Xiao Fei looked Wang Yue up and down, nodded, and said, "You're well-maintained. It seems your little man has taken good care of you."

He reached out to grab Wang Yue, but she stepped back warily and said, "Xiao Fei, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. What are you doing here?"

Xiao Fei, finding Wang Yue's evasion amusing, took out a cigar from his pocket, lit it, and said, "What are you hiding for? A day's marriage is a hundred days of grace, and we've been together for more than a day! Is this how you treat an old lover?"

Wang Yue sneered, "Xiao Fei, is it meaningful to say this now? Do you remember how I begged you and what you did? I followed you for years, and you just kicked me out and froze my bank account. Is there anyone more ruthless than you?"

"So you found this clumsy boy! I heard you two are doing well and even bought a car," Xiao Fei said.

Wang Yue replied, "Whether I bought a car or not has nothing to do with you. Zhang Yang is kind, not stupid, and I like him."

"Enough, Wang Yue, stop pretending in front of me. Don't tell me you like him! You're just after his money. Speaking of which, this clumsy boy has pretty good luck, even winning the lottery!" Xiao Fei said.

Niu Jinda also sneered, having been keeping a close eye on the two and discovering that their wealth came from Zhang Yang's lottery wins. He envied, hated, and resented the man's luck.

Wang Yue's face was cold as she thought, Xiao Fei clearly had no intention of letting her go. If he knew she truly liked Zhang Yang, who knows what he might do. It was best for him to think this way.

"Fine, I admit I'm after his money. You kicked me out so easily, but I need to eat. If you won't support me, someone else will. Zhang Yang may not be a billionaire, but he treats me well and is willing to spend money on me. He's better than you, whose money is controlled by your miserly wife," Wang Yue said.

Xiao Fei's face darkened, as Wang Yue had hit a sore spot.

"Stop talking nonsense. I'm here to tell you to get out of Jin City. You can find any man or even sell yourself, but don't disgrace me in Jin City. Even if you're a woman I've discarded, don't disgrace me here," Xiao Fei said.

Wang Yue laughed coldly, "What a joke. Is Jin City your property? You tell me to leave, and I'll leave?"

Xiao Fei said, "Don't believe me? Try it."

His eyes flashed with a dangerous light as he stared at Wang Yue.

Wang Yue was startled. From the look on Xiao Fei's face, he was serious. Her mind raced. She could leave, but what about Zhang Yang? If he got involved, it would be trouble. Wang Yue knew how terrifying Xiao Fei's power was and how dangerous he was.

She quickly came up with a plan, which was actually her initial idea. She laughed and said, "Even if you didn't say it, I would leave. I already know the bank password of that clumsy boy. I was planning to cheat him out of more, but now I'll let him off."

Xiao Fei took a deep puff of his cigar, exhaled, and said with a smile, "Indeed, Wang Yue hasn't changed. You're still the woman who will do anything for money."

Wang Yue sneered, "Of course, I am. Do you think I would believe in something as ridiculous as love? My biggest mistake was choosing you."

"Fine, I don't care. Do what you want, but remember to leave Jin City in a week," Xiao Fei said.

Wang Yue's heart ached. Xiao, what you're doing to me, I'll remember. I won't let you off. After Xiao Fei and Niu Jinda left, Wang Yue couldn't hold back her tears and sobbed on the sofa.

This was a day she had long anticipated, as it would allow her to leave Jin City without worrying about Xiao Fei's revenge. But the thought of separating from Zhang Yang made her unbearably sad.

After leaving, Niu Jinda asked, "Boss Xiao, do you believe her and let this couple off?"

Xiao Fei sneered, "I know Wang Yue better than you. She's a country girl who got to where she is today because of her ruthlessness and knowing what's good for her. We'll see her choice in a few days."

"Boss Xiao, why not just get rid of them quietly?" Niu Jinda suggested.

Xiao Fei glared at him, "Know your place. I'll decide what to do. My brother-in-law is about to become the mayor. No one can find fault with us. If you cause trouble, I'll kill you."

Niu Jinda's back went cold, then he said happily, "Boss, you're going to be the top dog!"

Xiao Fei nodded, "Yes, there are rumors, so we can't have any accidents now. It seems Wang Yue has nothing, so let her leave Jin City."

"What about the clumsy boy?" Niu Jinda asked.

Xiao Fei sneered, "Do you think he can still live here if Wang Yue runs off with his money?"

He then took out a voice recorder from his pocket and handed it to Niu Jinda, "This is what Wang Yue said. I recorded it. Whether she's telling the truth or not, if she runs off with the money, she'll leave the clumsy boy with some hope. When the time comes, give this to him."

Niu Jinda's eyes lit up, "Brilliant! If Wang Yue really likes the clumsy boy, hearing this recording will make it impossible for them to be together. If she's just after the money, the clumsy boy will report it or freeze the bank account, and it won't be our problem."

Xiao Fei laughed smugly. He couldn't stand seeing others do well. The thought of Wang Yue living a good life after leaving him made him uncomfortable. Although he couldn't do much to her because of the timing, he could make her life worse.
