Chapter 27

At the moment, the store manager was stunned into silence.

In all of her years of service as the store manager, she had never encountered a customer as peculiar as Ye Chen.

A customer who turned down discounts? Not just that. A customer who insisted on paying the original price?

She began to wonder if this customer whom she initially thought was invaluable was actually a nutjob.

Even so, there was nothing she could do other than follow his instructions.

“Sir, please key in your password…”

He Qian refused to believe that the man dressed in cheap rags could afford the clothes. She teased, “Brat, I’d like to see you key in the password! We’ll see if poor f*ckers like you can play this game!”

Then, she turned sharply to Sun Yi. “Sun Yi, oh, Sun Yi. Where did you pick up this man from? You have horrible taste, I’m telling you. I know all about your little crush on that useless garbage from the Ye family five years ago! And that after the Ye family incident, you buried all of them. I’m so confused. What is so great about that useless piece of sh*t from the Ye family?

“I thought after that good-for-nothing died, your taste would improve. Who would’ve expected that you’re still the same after all these years? Look at that dude next to you! What’s good about him? Why don’t you go ahead and sell your body then? Your customers might even turn out better than this guy!”

The more words He Qian spat, the more overboard she went. Tears started welling in Sun Yi’s eyes.

Sun Yi might allow everyone to walk over her this way, but she would never allow anyone to speak ill of the late Ye family.

Sun Yi clenched her fist. Her nails dug into the flesh of her palm, and blood started to seep out from the cuts.

On the other hand, He Qian continued yapping, “Sun Yi, do you want me to refer customers for your whoring business…”

Before He Qian could finish her sentence, a black shadow flashed across her face.

Everyone heard a loud slap before she could even respond!

Ye Chen’s palm landed squarely on her face.

That slap had flung He Qian to the floor.

It even sent a tooth flying out of He Qian’s mouth!

“I’ve been wanting to slap this mouth of yours for a while now. If you’re not a woman, you’re probably dead a long time ago.”

Ye Chen’s voice was extremely cold. It was the kind of coldness that permeated until it hits their bone marrow.

He had intended to do slap her a long time ago. If it was not for Sun Yi’s continuous objection, this b*tch would not be talking now.

People like her, if merely tolerated, they would take advantage of the situation and become even worse!

In the past five years where Ye Chen traversed between the realm of life and death, he had reached an understanding that enemies should all be eradicated once and for all!

No one saw it coming. It did not occur to anyone that Ye Chen would hit her out of nowhere.

He had sent a woman to the floor with a slap in front of everyone.

Although Sun Yi felt an unspeakable joy at the sight, her heart skipped a beat whenever she thought about the repercussions.

Sh*t.

They were doomed.

An epiphany hit her—every time she brought Ye Chen out, the fella would always run amok!

The word ‘tolerate’ did not exist in this man’s dictionary! There was only the terrible temper of a fearless man!

A few days ago, he taught River City’s Chen family a lesson and was sent to the police station. If it was not for the fact that he had done it out of self-defense, Ye Chen would have faced death certainly!

However, the same could not be said this time because Ye Chen was the one who started it!

A turmoil of emotions raged on in Sun Yi’s heart.

Consciousness returned to He Qian. With a head of messy hair, she got to her feet, extended a finger at Ye Chen, and roared like a crazy person, “How dare you hit me?! Nobody has ever hit me before, not once in my lifetime! No one! Believe me…”

Before she could finish, the card reader rang in a clear and crisp voice, “Transaction successful. We hope that you had a pleasant time shopping with us…”

It was at this moment that the world descended into a deafening silence.

Sun Yi froze in her tracks.

He Qian was similarly stunned too, forgetting the pain on her face.

A successful transaction?

This was not a small amount! The price could easily be the equivalent of an employee’s income for years!

Garbage collector?

Could he have picked up a VIP Black Card when collecting garbage? Then pay the total of a few hundred thousand without as much as a twitch on his face?

Impossible!

“This… This must be fake… You must have colluded with the store beforehand! How could you afford to pay otherwise?” He Qian accused aggressively in a volume that was borderline howling.

The expression on the Armani store manager’s face darkened when she heard He Qian questioning their credibility. “Miss, Armani is an international luxury brand. Why would we do something like that? If you continue to damage our reputation, we have the right to blacklist you!”

He Qian did not expect everyone to be pointing their fingers at her. She hurriedly turned around to Zhao Jun and begged, “Jun, they’re all ganging up on me. You’re a man. Shouldn’t you be helping me?”

Zhao Jun nodded. He patted He Qian’s back and stepped forward to pass a name card to the store manager. “Good day. I’m the Chief Financial Officer of North Name Corporation. Firstly, I’d like you to apologize to my girlfriend. You should know that the collaboration between North Name Corporation and Armani was established just a few days ago. I don’t wish for the collaboration to be affected because of you. Your meager salary won’t be able to afford it!

“Secondly, this man attacked someone in public and he did it in your store. You have the right to chase both of them out! After this, I’ll get my lawyer to deal with this too.”

Zhao Jun straightened up to look at everyone after that. He was enjoying his display of power.

From the corner of his eyes, he leered at Sun Yi, wondering how her gorgeous body looked like beneath the sports attire.

Zhao Jun planned to ask for this woman’s Wechat ID after settling the issue. Perhaps, if he threw in a bunch of money, he would get her to bed. Then, he could have as much fun he wanted.

Hearing Zhao Jun’s threat, the store manager was shocked into silence.

The collaboration between North Name Corporation and Armani had indeed been established just a week ago!

If she did anything to ruin the collaboration, the consequences would be too dire for her to bear!

The store manager did not doubt the authenticity of the information written on the man’s name card. His proud bearing was clearly displayed before her. It was the bearing of someone with a high position in a huge corporation!

She scuttled over to He Qian and apologized with a bow, “I’m so sorry, miss! I didn’t know who I was talking to just now…”

He Qian pointed at Ye Chen and Sun Yi and said, “What are you waiting for? Send the poor f*cker and the whore out now!”

Once the words slipped out from her mouth, another slap to her face followed!

It was not Ye Chen who did it but Sun Yi this time! She had lost her patience!

Sun Yi kept taking a step back in situations like this but that did not mean she was an easy pushover! Which woman in the world would be able to withstand endless insults about being a whore?

Ye Chen could not help nodding at Sun Yi’s action.

Just because Sun Yi was a woman did not mean that she should be meek and let everyone walk over her. A woman had to be tough when dealing with a troublesome character like this!

Zhao Jun saw his chance. He stepped forward and said to Sun Yi, “Miss, it’s not right to hit someone. I have a few relatives and friends in River City’s police station. Your action can definitely guarantee you a few days’ stay.

“But seeing that you’re a girl, I’ll give you a chance. Tonight, you shall go to the Hilton Hotel and accompany me for drinks. Do that, and I’ll think about letting you off the hook.”

His lewd smile was well hidden from everyone.

However, Sun Yi saw through his intentions. She knew exactly what he meant. She opened her mouth and presented him with only two words, “F*ck off!”

Zhao Jun did not expect someone from a tiny corporation selling medicine would reject him like this. He hmphed coldly and said, “If that’s the case, just wait and see, you bastards. From today onwards, I’ll exert pressure on the Magnificent Group on behalf of North Name Corporation. We’ll see how long you can last in River City!”

Zhao Jun’s expression was hideously savage! He would not mind falling in love with the feeling of being in power.

Yet, his proud moments were short-lived. Someone threw cold water on him!

A steady voice rang behind him and said, “Such ambitious sentiments! Today I, Shen Haihua, would love to find out who’s using my North Name Corporation to harass Miracle Doctor Ye!”
