Chapter 15: Chapter 15 Extortion?
After several rings, the call finally connected, and Han Qingxin's lazy voice came through.
"Bodyguard, what's up?" said Han Qingxin.
Ye Ling rolled his eyes, "Borrow money."
"Not lending!"
Ye Ling: "..."
"What do you need the money for?"
Han Qingxin paused for a moment, seemingly teasing Ye Ling on purpose, and chuckled.
"To buy some stuff," Ye Ling said.
"Didn't I just give you 100,000? What do you need to buy that's not enough?" Han Qingxin asked.
"It's just not enough, can I take an advance on five years of my salary?" Ye Ling said helplessly.
"Is that so..."
After thinking for a bit, Han Qingxin replied, "Fine, but I don't have time right now, if you want the money, come and get it yourself."
"No need, I've opened a bank account, just transfer it to me directly," Ye Ling said.
"Alright then, send me your card number and the bank, the transfer will be real-time, it'll be there swiftly," Han Qingxin said.
"Thanks a lot!"
After hanging up the phone, Ye Ling couldn't help but sigh inwardly, truly worthy of being a rich second generation, tens of thousands so easily dismissed.
It wasn't long before Ye Ling's phone received a message.
It was from Han Qingxin transferring the money, but not 60,000, rather 100,000.
"Ding!"
Another message came through, still from Han Qingxin.
"I've paid you for ten years of salary in advance; you better take your bodyguard duties seriously from now on."
Ye Ling rolled his eyes again, ten years should be 120,000, yet it was short by 20,000.
However, Ye Ling didn't fuss about it, once he succeeded in alchemy, what would a mere ten or twenty thousand mean?
If it was for the money, Ye Ling wouldn't have agreed to Han Qingxin for just 1,000.
Following Li Fugui to the office and using the POS machine to swipe the card, Ye Ling, holding the Pill Furnace, was ready to leave.
"What are you doing! Let go of me!"
"You're hurting me!"
Just as Ye Ling reached the staircase, from the entrance of the lobby on the first floor, a shout suddenly erupted.
That was Liu Qiao'er's voice, wasn't it? Ye Ling thought.
Descending to the first floor, he saw that Liu Qiao'er was currently being grabbed by the arm by a young man.
The young man sported a buzz cut and dressed very fashionably; his clothes were all designer brands.
As this guy held Liu Qiao'er's arm, a lecherous gleam appeared in his eyes as he grinned, "Beauty, I'm just inviting you to have a drink with me, I wouldn't do anything to you, what are you afraid of?"
"I said I'm not going!" Liu Qiao'er struggled as she spoke.
But her frail body simply couldn't break free.
"You might not know who I am, so let me introduce myself, my name is Liu Hainan, son of Liu Fenglin, the chairman of Fenglin Group, and that car outside is mine," said Liu Hainan as he pointed towards a white Porsche 911 outside, "Now, may I have the honor of taking you for a drink?"
"I'm not going, I still have work to do, let go of me," Qiao'er's face reddened with anger.
Her appearance only fueled Liu Hainan's desire, and while keeping a tight grip on Qiao'er's arm with his right hand, his left hand started to reach towards Qiao'er's front.
"Ah! What are you doing? Boss! Boss!"
Upon seeing Liu Hainan making a move towards her front, Qiao'er's pretty face changed, and she quickly called out for help from Li Fugui.
But Li Fugui seemed as if he hadn't heard anything at all, not even opening the door to the office on the second floor.
"What a joke, Liu Hainan is Li Fugui's God of Wealth, throwing millions here every year, how could he possibly offend such a big client over an employee?"
"Some boss you are, calling yourself a 'deity' would be useless."
Liu Hainan sneered coldly, the lecherous glimmer in his eyes growing even more intense.
Just as his hand was about to fall on Liu Qiao'er, at that moment, with a smack, a palm suddenly struck Liu Hainan's left hand away.
"This beautiful place, I haven't even touched it yet, and you fucking want to be the first to act?" a faint voice entered Liu Hainan's ears.
Liu Hainan couldn't help but turn his head to look, only to see a guy exuding an aura of True Qi standing beside him, looking down at him.
Indeed looking down, Ye Ling's 1.85 meters stature was not to be underestimated.
Upon seeing Ye Ling arrive, Liu Qiao'er immediately showed tears in her eyes, fearfully hiding behind Ye Ling.
"Who the fuck do you think you are? Dare to hit me?" Liu Hainan said arrogantly.
His father's worth billions, who wouldn't nod and bow down to him when they see him?
Having bullied numerous men and women with impunity, Liu Hainan was lawless and had never allowed anyone to fart in his presence, let alone hit him.
"Sorry, I didn't quite catch that, you said to hit you, or your father?" Ye Ling feigned confusion and asked.
"Pfft."
Hearing this, Liu Qiao'er immediately laughed through her tears, lightly punching Ye Ling, and silently mused that this guy really could spout nonsense.
The other people in the shop were also looking over with interest.
However, they all felt sorry for Ye Ling.
Liu Hainan is the son of Liu Fenglin, and all these folks here driving BMWs and Audis wouldn't dare offend him, let alone this guy exuding True Qi?
"You don't know who I am?"
Hearing Liu Qiao'er's laughter, Liu Hainan suddenly felt a surge of anger.
"I really don't know you." Ye Ling replied.
"Motherfucker, a wimp like you wants to play the hero saving the beauty? Why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror, see if you're even worthy!" Liu Hainan cursed.
His long-standing tyranny had fostered his arrogant and presumptuous attitude.
"She is my girlfriend, you're not allowed to touch her," Ye Ling said.
Upon hearing this, Liu Qiao'er's face turned red behind Ye Ling, thinking to herself who wants to be your girlfriend, dream on!
But since Ye Ling was helping her right now, she didn't correct him.
"Heh, you, a wimp, have such a pretty girlfriend? I really don't buy it," Liu Hainan snorted, then added, "Fine, even if she's your girlfriend, so what? There hasn't been a woman I've wanted that I couldn't get."
As he spoke, Liu Hainan again tried to grab Liu Qiao'er, but Ye Ling, with his 1.85 meters of height, stood in front of her, preventing Liu Hainan from reaching her.
"Fuck off to the side!" Liu Hainan shoved Ye Ling.
"Everyone sees that, right? He hit me first. This is self-defense," Ye Ling shouted to the people around.
Hearing this, the surrounding people all showed contempt.
What does it matter if you're defending yourself? Even if the police do come, they'll look at the money.
No matter how right you are, it's not as appealing as money.
"I did hit you, what are you going to do about it? You think you dare hit me back?" Liu Hainan's nose was practically pointing to the sky as he jeered.
"Go fuck your mom!"
Without another word, Ye Ling leaped forward and slapped a big one across Liu Hainan's face.
Ye Ling didn't use his True Qi, but even so, with all the strength concentrated in his right hand, it sent Liu Hainan seeing stars, spinning several circles on the ground.
This scene left the onlookers utterly stunned!
