River Shao Yu lit up a cigarette and leisurely exhaled a mouthful of smoke before saying, "Since you're here, then let's have a good meal together."
Ye Ningxiao rubbed her aching wrist and ignored him.
River Shao Yu signaled the waiter to order.
River Shao Yu didn't ask for Ye Ningxiao's opinion and just ordered all the dishes.
River Shao Yu said, "Miss Ye, no matter what, I kindly invited you to a meal. Don't keep pulling your face this way, it will affect your appetite."
Ye Ning Xiao said angrily, "I don't need your kindness. I don't want to eat the food you treat!"
River Shao Yu sneered and said, "Miss Ye, don't be in such a hurry to say something like that. Just listen to what I have to say to you. You won't be like this."
Ye Ningxiao glanced at him and said, "I have no interest in knowing, nor do I wish to know."
River Shao Yu continued to smile and said, "How could that be? Miss Ye, I think you also know that your movie's box office isn't bad."
River Shao Yu said as he played with the cigarette in his hand.
"So what? What does that have to do with you?" Ye Ningxiao answered.
"This is exactly what I wanted to say. This matter really has a lot to do with me." River Shao Yu purposely said this and didn't continue.
Ye Ning Xiao looked at River Shao Yu. What did he want to say?
Seeing that Ye Ningxiao was silent, River Shao Yu continued to say, "You know what my capital is, right? This time at the box office, I'm supporting the other half."
Ye Ning Xiao remained silent, waiting to see what he had to say.
River Shao Yu continued, "As for me, I hope that your next movie will also go viral."
River Shao Yu couldn't treat him so well for no reason at all. Ye Ning Xiao asked, "What are you planning to do?"
Seeing that Ye Ning Xiao had finally spoken, River Shao Yu smiled and said, "Miss Ye has finally spoken. As for me, I'm also very fond of Miss Ye. Of course, to put it bluntly, it's me, Jiang Chen, who wants to woo Miss Ye Ning Xiao."
Pursuit? He was actually able to say such words because he had spoiled the concept she had in her heart. When she thought of how she had been caught up in an unwritten rule in her previous life, being tied up for consumption, and then being forced to shoulder many crimes for the drug lord until she was executed, this was all inseparable from the man in front of her. She could only blame herself for being blind in her previous life and actually liking a person like him. Now, even if Jiang Shaoyi said something, she wouldn't believe him. She already deeply understood Jiang Shaoyi's true appearance.
The more Ye Ning Xiao thought about it, the angrier he became. She stood up and picked up the wine glass in front of her. She splashed the wine on Jiang Shaoyi's face and said, "You better not be dreaming!"
River Shao Yu would never have thought that Ye Ning Xiao would give him this kind of a beating. This woman doesn't know how to appreciate favors. Her personality is quite fierce. It seems that he really can't help but take out something to scare her.
With a whoosh, River Shao Yu took out a gun and quickly pointed it at Ye Ningxiao's head.
"You woman!" River Shao Yu gritted his teeth as he spoke.
Ye Ningxiao also fearlessly provoked him by saying, "What's wrong with a woman like me? If that's the case, what else do you want? "If you have the ability, shoot! Come at me, come at me!"
Although Ye Ning Xiao was nervous in her heart, she knew that only by being even more ruthless and fearless than Jiang Shaoyi could she make Jiang Shao Yu let her go. Ye Ning Xiao suppressed the nervousness in her heart as she shouted loudly at him.
"It looks like you're quite brave. Then I'll fulfill your wish!" As he said that, River Shao Yu's gun was once again pointed at Ye Ning Xiao. Ye Ning Xiao's body couldn't help but sway backwards from the spear.
"Are you afraid? Hurry up and apologize to me, and I'll let you off!" River Shao Yu thought that after what happened just now, Ye Ning Xiao would be afraid of him and would compromise. He didn't expect that Ye Ning Xiao was still as fearless as ever and shouted at him, "Who's scared now. I think it's you who's afraid now. If you really dare to shoot, you won't be able to escape either."
"I didn't expect that not only are you beautiful, but you also have quite the guts. Alright, I won't tease you anymore." River Shao Yu suddenly put away his gun and a smile appeared on his face.
Worried that River Shao Yu would see through her, Ye Ning Xiao resisted the fear in her heart and sat down. She wanted to drink some water to relax, but her hands were trembling, so she gave up.
After calming herself down, she said, "Mr. Jiang, your joke isn't funny at all."
When River Shao Yu heard her words, she smiled and said, "Miss Ye, you've really made me have a whole new level of respect for you."
River Shao Yu wiped the red wine off his face and said with a smile, "There really isn't a woman who dares to treat me like this. Wait for me here, I'll be back soon."
He wanted to wash his face. Although he praised Ye Ningxiao on the surface, he hated her in his heart. He never thought that this woman would dare to treat him like this, waiting for him to get her and see how he would deal with her.
River Shao Yu came out and said to his men, "I'm going to the washroom. Watch this woman."
River Shao Yu's subordinate said, "Yes."
One of them saw the red wine imprint on Jiang Shaoyi's face and suppressed his laughter. He had never experienced something like this before.
River Shao Yu covered his face with his hand and walked towards the bathroom. Looking at the red wine imprint on his face, he angrily threw the tissue onto the table and cursed, "This bitch, see how I'll deal with you!"
The collar of his shirt had been marked as well. This was the new shirt he had ordered earlier, and also the tie he had bought from France. It made his heart ache.
Since there were no clothes to change into, River Shao Yu could only walk out in a disheveled manner.
After Jiang Shaoyi left, the subordinate at the door secretly spoke to the subordinate opposite of him, "Did you know? Just now, River Shao Yu's face was covered in red wine.
When the other heard him say this, he said in disbelief, "Is what you said true? You saw it? "
The subordinate said, "Of course I saw it. It must have been that woman." As he spoke, he glanced at the room.
"This woman is too amazing, she dares to do this." Another subordinate sent out an expression of admiration. There really wasn't anyone that could make Jiang Shaoyi like this.
"Didn't you hear the argument? That woman isn't afraid of him at all. " The subordinate whispered.
"I didn't pay attention." Another subordinate said.
"Aiya, in the future, you have to be more careful, don't always be distracted, alright?" the man criticized the other.
"I'm not distracted at all. I'm very focused. It's you who should stop eavesdropping." The other one warned his subordinate.
Ye Ning Xiao was in her room as she quickly turned on her cellphone. "Hurry, hurry." She had never felt that this phone was turned on so slowly, as if a long time had passed before she turned it on. While listening to the voices outside, she made a call to Fang Anhui, and the call quickly connected. Ye Ning Xiao hastily said, "An Wang, I was brought to a restaurant by Jiang Shaoyi. Come and save me, I'll send the address to you."
Hearing Ye Ningxiao's words, Fang Anwang anxiously said in his heart, "Alright, then send me the address. You should also think of a way to leave." I'll catch up immediately. "
Finished speaking, Ye Ning Xiao hurriedly hung up and sent Fang Anhui an address. Ye Ning Xiao's heart was thumping, she had to carefully observe the movements of Jiang Shaoyi and his underlings outside.
Ye Ning Xiao calmed himself down. He couldn't wait any longer. Right now, he had to rush out. When River Shao Yu returned, it would be hard to say.
Ye Ning Xiao stood up and pretended to be calm as he pulled open the door. Just as she was about to leave, River Shao Yu's men immediately stopped her and said, "Miss, you can't leave."
Ye Ningxiao said, "Why can't I go out? I need to go to the washroom. Let me out."
River Shao Yu's men still didn't let her go. Both of them used their hands to stop Ye Ningxiao, but how could Ye Ningxiao's strength compare to theirs? She simply couldn't rush over. She took out her phone and called Fang Anhui, "Anlang, they're blocking my way, and don't let me out. Come quickly."
Fang Anwang had already rushed over to her side. When he received her call, he comforted her, "Just wait there. I'll come over to pick you up right now. Don't get into a fight with them, don't hurt yourself."
After hanging up the phone, she stood at the entrance without turning back. River Shao Yu's underlings heard her call just now, and one of them signalled to the other not to let Ye Ning Xiao leave, otherwise, River Shao Yu would definitely give them a good look. The two of them looked at Ye Xiao Ning as though they were criminals.
Fortunately, River Shao Yu returned very quickly. Seeing Ye Ning Xiao standing outside, his two subordinates guarded Ye Ning Xiao warily. They asked, "What happened?"
One of his men lowered his head and whispered to Jiang Shaoyi, telling him about how Ye Ning Xiao had called Fang An Wang. Jiang Shaoyi nodded and said, "I didn't eat well this time, I think we will meet again soon."
With that, he hurriedly left with his subordinates.
He saw Ye Ningxiao standing alone at the entrance of the restaurant, anxiously waiting for him. Fang AnWang quickened his pace, ran to Ye Ning Xiao's side, and hugged her, saying, "I'm here, I'm not afraid anymore."
Fang Anhui consoled her with a pained heart as she hugged her and got into the car. Ye Ningxiao cried for a while before she felt slightly better. Fang Anhui helped her wipe her tears and said, "Let's go home."
Ye Ningxiao nodded.
