Chapter 74

Update time: April 4, 2013

Seeing Wang Luyao's bewildered and confused look, Pan Hui recounted the story of how Zhang Yang had sent her to buy things without giving her money, making her lose face. After finishing, she looked at Wang Luyao with a puzzled expression and said, "I didn't say anything to you in the elevator. You must be overthinking it."

Wang Luyao was dumbfounded after hearing this, feeling an urge to vomit blood.

Zhang Yang was bullying her, but it definitely couldn't be called an insult. Even if she reported it, no one would handle the case. She had come here with a fierce attitude to question Zhang Yang, but it now looked like a joke. Seeing the unfriendly expression on Zhang Yang's face, she said with a sad look, "Well, I have something to do, I'll go first."

Zhang Yang sneered and said, "Do you still remember what I said just now?"

Wang Luyao stammered, "Zhang Yang, I'm sorry. It was my fault today. I'll leave now."

"Is it not too late for you to apologize now? Pan Hui, go back to your room. I need to have a good talk with Miss Wang," Zhang Yang said.

Pan Hui hurriedly put the things she had bought in the kitchen and then returned to the bedroom, locking the door. She didn't want to be blamed by Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang already had a lot of dissatisfaction with her, and because of her crying, she had caused such a misunderstanding. She didn't know how he would scold her later.

After Pan Hui returned to the bedroom, Zhang Yang stood up and circled around Wang Luyao, looking at her firm chest and said, "I've always heard that women with big breasts are not smart. I didn't believe it before, but today I finally saw it."

Wang Luyao covered her chest with both hands, frightened, and said, "What are you going to do, Zhang Yang?"

Zhang Yang sneered, "You don't need to act like that. I'm not interested in you."

A flash of shame and anger crossed Wang Luyao's eyes, but Zhang Yang's words made her feel a bit relieved. At least she didn't have to worry about what this man might do to her.

But the next words from Zhang Yang made her tremble all over.

"A second-hand woman, a mistress to others, I'm afraid to dirty my hands by touching you!" Zhang Yang's words seemed to hide a hint of sorrow.

Wang Luyao bit her lip and glared at Zhang Yang, saying, "Do you think I like it this way? It's because of men like you that there are women like me. Don't pretend to be so noble. Saying you're not interested, you're just afraid. I know men like you well. You want to take advantage but don't want to take responsibility, acting all high and mighty, as if you're so great and I'm so low. You don't have the chance or the courage. I don't believe a cat can resist temptation. What do you want? Just say it clearly, don't be so ambiguous."

Zhang Yang was taken aback, not expecting the woman to be the first to lose her temper. After some thought, Zhang Yang understood Wang Luyao's mindset. He was like a dagger hanging over her head, and she wouldn't feel at ease until this matter was resolved. If she didn't feel at ease, she would keep an eye on him, which made Zhang Yang uncomfortable. He needed to resolve this issue. In a few days, he would go to the jade market, possibly meeting someone introduced by Hong Yaqin. Going alone wouldn't look good, so it would be better to have this woman accompany him. Wang Luyao would be suitable as either a secretary or a decoration.

Thinking about this, Zhang Yang carefully examined Wang Luyao. To be fair, this woman was indeed very attractive. Although her height was average, she had a large chest, a firm buttock, and a slim waist. She was also very well-dressed. Having such a decoration by his side would make him look good.

"I don't want to argue with you. It's meaningless. If you want me to let you go, it's possible. In three days, I have an event to attend, and I need a decoration. You come with me. After this, we'll be even," Zhang Yang said.

Wang Luyao looked at Zhang Yang cautiously, unsure why he suddenly became reasonable and proposed such a condition. Could he have some ulterior motive?

"Just like that?" Wang Luyao didn't believe it.

"If you think it's too simple, we can do it another way. You and Xinxin can accompany me for a night," Zhang Yang said, deliberately provoking her.

Wang Luyao's face changed, and she said, "You're dreaming. I'll tell you, this has nothing to do with Xinxin. If you try anything with her, I'll fight you to the death. I want you to promise, after three days, when I accompany you to the event, you'll forget everything."

Zhang Yang said, "That's exactly what I'm asking. But when you come, dress nicely. I'm a man, and a man's word is as good as gold. I'll do what I say."

Wang Luyao took a deep breath and said, "Alright, I agree."

Zhang Yang waved his hand and said, "Fine, come to me early in three days. By the way, what's your phone number?"

Wang Luyao looked at Zhang Yang cautiously and said, "I'll come. You don't need to know my phone number."

After saying this, Wang Luyao left.

Being able to resolve this matter this way, Zhang Yang was quite satisfied. He never intended to do anything to Wang Luyao. It was this woman who was guilty and kept pressing the issue. This time, it was a good thing. He could save face and resolve the trouble.

As for Pan Hui, Zhang Yang's expression was somewhat grim. This woman was truly a troublemaker, crying for no reason and causing misunderstandings. He was increasingly regretful for hiring her as a nanny. If Pan Hui knew what Zhang Yang was thinking, she would surely cry her heart out. How could she not be allowed to cry?

Pan Hui hid in the bedroom until it was dark, then came out and asked, "Boss, what are we doing tonight?"

After it got dark, Zhang Yang's mind was entirely on the Jade轩. He had no interest in teasing Pan Hui and said, "Eat by yourself. I have something to do and need to go out."

After saying this, Zhang Yang changed into a black outfit that wouldn't attract attention and drove out of the neighborhood.

It was only around seven o'clock, and the Jade轩 was still open.

Zhang Yang parked his car on the other side of the road, took out the binoculars he had prepared, and looked at the Jade轩. Apart from the salespeople, there was no one else in the store. Ma Guojun wasn't there, Duan Fei wasn't there, and the old man with gray hair wasn't there either.

After some thought, Zhang Yang took out his phone and called Ma Guojun, "Manager Ma? This is Zhang Yang."

"Mr. Zhang, hello, hello. Is there anything I can help you with?" Ma Guojun asked enthusiastically, covering the phone.

"Nothing much. I'm very interested in your proposal from earlier and want to discuss it with you in the store. Are you there?" Zhang Yang said.

Ma Guojun glanced at Duan Fei at the dinner table and said to everyone, "I'm sorry, everyone. A client has a question for me. I'll take a call."

Duan Fei said, "Go and come back quickly. Manager Ma, we're waiting for
