Chapter 186: Counterattack 112
“What’s the matter? Speak!” Someone asked anxiously without even thinking.
Ming Yue thought for a moment, then said softly into the phone, “That old guy of mine didn’t find the person he was looking for at the place we pointed him to, so he booked a flight back to the city and will fly back to Ning City tomorrow. I’ve already promptly dropped another clue for him, but it seems he hasn’t taken the bait—he hasn’t canceled that ticket yet.”
“So you want me to make him cancel the ticket, or block him from coming back?”
Jiang Feng asked with a smile.
But Ming Yue replied, “I want you to find someone to break his legs, so even if he wants to come back, he won’t be able to.”
Jiang Feng was momentarily stunned. “Are you serious?”
Ming Yue nodded. “Of course I’m serious—absolutely serious.”
“Alright.”
Jiang Feng readily agreed, quickly changing the subject and smiling as he looked at Ming Yue. “Is there a reward?”
Ming Yue smiled and asked, “What kind of reward do you want?”
“You?”
“Sure.”
“Really?”
“Really. If you’re capable, just fly over here right now and do whatever you want. But if you can’t make it, then… forget it.”
Ming Yue laughed slyly.
Jiang Feng immediately gritted his teeth. “You little cheat! You’re fooling me like this, aren’t you? You know full well I can’t get over there, yet you still tease me like this? You little cheat—you just wait and see!”
Ming Yue giggled uncontrollably, laughing so hard her sides almost hurt.
Only when she’d had her fill of laughter and had seen enough of Jiang Feng’s frustrated expression did she finally stop laughing and return to a serious tone. “Alright, I’m not kidding around anymore. If you handle this for me, I’ll give you full credit. And once you’re back, I’ll reward you.”
“No shirking the deal!”
Jiang Feng finally felt a bit more at ease.
Ming Yue smiled and asked, “How’s your injury? Have you put on any medicine yet?”
“Already done.”
“Still don’t want to say who hit you?”
“Just a bump.”
“Fine, fine, a bump—let’s just call it a ‘bump’ and stop arguing, okay?”
Ming Yue said irritably, then quickly ended the video call.
Perhaps it was the period of adjustment, or maybe it was the time they’d spent together; whatever the reason, Ming Yue, who used to have little fondness for that unnamed male operative, now held her phone in her hand, her mind still filled with his voice and words.
Sometime along the way, that man seemed to have quietly settled in her mind.
Yet Ming Yue remained completely unaware.
Liu Qingqing’s fiancé is named Zhang Yang, a department manager at a listed company in An City. He may not be as good-looking as Ming Kai, nor as talented, and he certainly doesn’t excel in interpersonal skills like Ming Kai does—but that hasn’t stopped him from being the standout among his peers.
Among all these people, in an environment where there isn’t a genius like Ming Kai, he has already become the most dazzling presence.
On top of that, he’s about to marry a beautiful bride.
It’s exactly what people call a double win in love and career.
Zhang Yang can’t help humming a few tunes as he walks.
One day, as usual, he drove to work, and whether it was because he was too excited or simply hadn’t seen clearly after getting up early, he accidentally crashed into another car.
Zhang Yang slammed on the brakes and hurried out to take a look.
He expected it would be a messy affair that would take quite some time to sort out, but to his surprise, a curly-haired beauty stepped out of the other vehicle. She had long, golden curls, a pair of empty glasses perched on her nose, a lake-blue strapless tight-fitting top, a matching body-hugging skirt, and wore sky-high heels. She drove a convertible and stepped neatly out of her flashy open-top car, a charming smile playing on her lips. She glanced at her own car, then at Zhang Yang’s vehicle, and very decisively pulled out her phone. “Hey handsome, I’m in a hurry. Flat rate: three thousand yuan—no haggling allowed. Just scan the code!”
