Chapter 40

“Please elaborate,” Ye Ming said. “Yes, young master.” The short-haired woman bowed slightly before saying, “The scene of the event is young master’s villa. Young master’s identity and status is very noble. Many people harbor ill intentions towards young master. Miss Yang is no exception. She got into the villa and attempted to assassinate young master. Young master resisted with all his might and broke many antiques during the fight… ” The short-haired woman said.

“Stop making baseless accusations. This is not what happened. Clearly, he was the one who wanted to do me dirty.” Yang Yuxi widened her eyes and glared at the short-haired woman furiously. How could she be so shameless to confound right and wrong and deliberately distort the facts?

“Oh, I must have recalled it wrong,” the short-haired woman nodded and rectified. “It should be that many women are materialistic and hope to cozy up to our young master, so that they can become Cinderella. Miss Yang took the chance to enter young master’s villa and attempted to force herself on him to gain his favor. In order to defend his chastity, young master broke many antiques out of self-defense. Miss Yang, you saw that you can’t succeed and escaped out of the villa in a hurry.”Read more new novels on listnovel.com

“You…” Yang Yuxi was shaking with anger. After some time, she said, “You’re spouting nonsense. Clearly, he was the one who forced himself on me.” The short-haired woman smiled gently and said, “Miss Yang, all the evidence is present. It is not up to you not to judge.”

“Humph, whatever you said is not counted. I believe that the law will make a fair judgment,” Yang Yuxi said. “Miss Yang, I’m afraid that you’re not aware. I hold a double doctoral degree in Business Management and Law. In addition, I am a qualified barrister. When the time comes, I will be defending young master. I believe I will definitely be able to maintain young master’s innocence and reputation.”

Yang Yuxi was stupefied. She stared at the short-haired woman in shock. She did not expect that she actually held a double doctoral degree. Her heart could not help sinking. Even his waiting staff held double doctoral degrees. How powerful and strong was Ye Ming? If they really were to go to court, it was most probable that she would be the one who to lose the case.

“Miss Yang, you should receive the summon from the court tomorrow morning. You will know by then.” The short-haired woman stepped forward and passed a set of documents to Ye Ming. She then said respectfully, “Young master, this is the document that you requested. There are valuations of the things that Miss Yang broke.”

Ye Ming took the document and glanced at it briefly. He then passed it to Yang Yuxi and said, “Take a look.” Yang Yuxi took the document, flipped open it and read the first page. At the sight of the valuation of the items, she instantly let out a cry of shock.

“106,700,000 yuan. How can it be this much?” Yang Yuxi widened her eyes. Initially, she had thought that the items broken were worth at most over ten of millions of yuan. She did not expect the value to be tenfold. “You will know after you read on,” Ye Ming said. Yang Yuxi read on and subsequently felt dizzy.

“Virgin Mary in Glory oil painting – 64,000,000 yuan; Imperial Ming blue-and-white amphora – 11,000,000 yuan; Yixing Clay ashtray – 7,800,000 yuan; Qing Dynasty blue-and-white porcelain vase – 5,600,000 yuan; jadeite coin – 3,300,000 yuan; agate pendant – 2,900,000 yuan… rare ujeon longjing tea 25 grams – 4,50,0000 yuan… ” Yang Yuxi’s eyes increasingly widened. Her breathing was also becoming rapid and shallow. This list of valuations had caused her blood pressure to increase.

“How can it possibly cost so much? Smashing a few items cost hundreds of millions! Have you gone mad thinking about money? That ‘Virgin Mary in Glory’… I have not even heard of it. It is actually worth 64,000,000 yuan? Are you bullying me for being ignorant in this area and trying to bluff me?!”
