Chapter 259: The Deal (16) Lin Yixun sneered, "If it’s not that, then what is it?" "I’m saying, today he... he was a bit unusual. Normally, he’s actually very approachable." Today, Miss Lin happened to bump into the gun muzzle. Who told her to go meet Ouyang Hao so late at night? When Leng Yixiu answered the phone in the evening, Old He happened to be there too. At that moment, the big boss’s face turned pitch black. Even now, thinking about it still made him shiver. Upon thinking, Old He kindly reminded her, "Miss Lin, in the future, you’d better avoid meeting with Mr. Ouyang." With Old He’s reminder, if Lin Yixun still couldn’t figure out what was going on, then she would have been a complete fool. From what Old He implied, the reason Leng Yixiu was being so unkind was because she went to see Ouyang Hao. She thought carefully, and it indeed seemed possible. Leng Yixiu was an extremely arrogant man, standing at the pinnacle of the business world. Naturally, he wouldn’t want his woman to still be thinking about her old lover. Even if that woman was dispensable to him, his ridiculous and pitiful male pride would absolutely not allow it. And facts proved that Lin Yixun’s guess was correct. When she was sent back to Half Mountain Villa, Leng Yixiu had already returned. As soon as she entered the living room, she was hit by the strong smell of smoke. She instinctively lowered her eyes and saw that the ashtray on the coffee table was filled with cigarette butts. Leng Yixiu was leaning on the sofa, legs crossed, a cigarette still between his fingers. Seeing Lin Yixun, the man stood up, put out the cigarette in his hand, and his cold gaze fell on her, "You’re back?" That afternoon’s phone call had ended very unpleasantly, so naturally Lin Yixun was not going to show Leng Yixiu a pleasant face. She ignored him, changed into her slippers, and prepared to go upstairs. But just then, she was stopped by the man’s command, "Stop!" Lin Yixun paused but didn’t turn around. She then continued to step forward without looking back, heading upstairs. However, her steps were no match for the man’s speed. In a few strides, he caught up to her, grabbed her shoulder, and yanked her back. "Is this your attitude towards me?" Her shoulder ached from his grip. Lin Yixun frowned, looked up at him, and laughed softly, "What attitude does Mr. Leng want from me? I only promised to come back to you, but I never said I’d be respectful and obedient." The man’s sharp eyes fixed on her, his narrow eyes slightly squinted, and he said slowly, "Lin Yixun, I let you come back to be by my side, not to see your sulking face. I’m not in a good mood today, so you’d better not provoke me." "Really? What a coincidence, I’m in a bad mood today too. So Mr. Leng, you better not expect me to be docile and compliant." "It’s been years, and your mouth has gotten sharper." "I have to thank you for that, Mr. Leng." "Lin Yixun, making me angry won’t do you any good." "Not making you angry doesn’t seem to bring me any benefits either," Lin Yixun said with a light smile. "Seems like you’re deliberately trying to get on my nerves tonight?" the man grabbed Lin Yixun’s collar and said coldly. "If Mr. Leng doesn’t want to be irritated on purpose, why not let me go?" "In your dreams! You know, to get that kidney for you, I went through a lot of effort. After all that, I have to get it back with interest, don’t you think?" The man smiled faintly, but Lin Yixun could feel the danger from him.
