Number One Wealthy Son In Law - Chapter 5

Chapter 5: Contract

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Alright, Xu Yaqing. If you can’t get the contract, get out of the Xu family.”

Xu Tian made his request.

He had long wanted to drive Xu Yaqing out of the family. This way, after the Old Master passed, there would be one less person to fight with him for the family assets.

He finally had a chance today.

“Okay, but I have one condition. My condition is simple. If I get the contract, you have to call Ye Feng Brother Feng from now on,” Xu Yaqing said calmly.

“You…”

Xu Tian was furious. Xu Yaqing knew that Ye Feng and he were at odds with each other, but she still made such a request. Wasn’t she just trying to embarrass him?

“Why? You don’t dare?” Xu Yaqing started to goad him.

“I dare! Why wouldn’t I dare? I don’t believe you can get the contract.”

“Alright, Grandpa is here. I don’t think you dare to cheat.”

“Alright, alright, stop arguing. I’ll help you bear witness to this bet.”

At this moment, Xu Wanghai spoke up to stop the two of them from arguing.

Then, he said to Xu Yaqing affectionately, “Yaqing, I’ll be depending on you for this contract.”

“Grandpa, do you really believe that she can get the contract?”

Xu Tian was displeased to see Xu Wanghai’s attitude towards Xu Yaqing change.

“Then will you go?”

Xu Wanghai’s words rendered Xu Tian speechless.

“Alright, I’ll leave the signing of the contract with Qingfeng Pharmaceuticals to Yaqing. Does anyone have any objections?”

Everyone expressed that they did not.

“Then let’s end the meeting.”

Hearing that the meeting was over, everyone left the meeting room and went to their posts.

“Owner, I’ll have some cold noodles.”

Outside the snack stall opposite the Xu Corporation, Ye Feng was smoking a cigarette as he leaned against his little electric motorcycle and ordered dishes.

“Yo, young man, you’re here again.”

The owner was also familiar with Ye Feng.

Ever since four years ago, Ye Feng would come here every day to order a serving of cold noodles. He would squat by the roadside and eat. When the company opposite him got off work, he would leave.

“Young man, are you here to pick up your girlfriend? Why don’t you go in and pick her up? Instead, you stay here every day until it’s time to get off work.”

The owner had some guesses about Ye Feng’s identity. He knew that this was probably the son-in-law of the Xu family who had caused an uproar in Jiang Zhong a few years ago, the number one gigolo in Jiang Zhong.

Everyone liked gossip. How could gossip heard from other people compare to gossip witnessed firsthand?

“She doesn’t want to see me, and I’m rather free, so I come over every day,” Ye Feng said indifferently.

“Brother, I see that you are not an ordinary person. Are you willing to be like this forever?”

The owner had not seen many big shots, but he was used to seeing all kinds of people. He was very good at judging people. Besides, if a normal person could still be so optimistic after being scolded for almost four years, he must be someone or a fool.

“Owner, you’re right. I’m not an ordinary person,” Ye Feng took the cold noodles that the owner had packed and said mysteriously.

“Oh? Then who are you? Tell me.”

The owner was excited. Was he finally going to find out who this famous person in Jiang Zhong was?

“Let me tell you something. Actually, the doctor told me when I was a kid that I had a bad stomach and I had to eat soft food1.”

Ye Feng smiled.

As for the owner, he looked like he had eaten something bad.

“Kid, if this were ten years ago, and you tricked me like this, I would definitely stab you.”

“I’m so scared. Big brother, don’t stab me, okay?”

Ye Feng begged for mercy exaggeratedly.

“At least you’re sensible,” the owner replied smugly.

Ye Feng did not take it to heart. Men would occasionally joke around and boast with each other.

Ye Feng squatted by the side of the road, eating cold noodles while chatting with the owner.

Finally, it was time to get off work. Ye Feng saw Xu Yaqing walking out of the building. He bade the owner goodbye and drove his little electric motorcycle away.

As Xu Yaqing watched Ye Feng leave, a ripple appeared in her heart. She knew that Ye Feng would be waiting here for her to get off work.

Xu Yaqing would only take a taxi home after watching Ye Feng leave.

As she thought about Ye Feng’s performance in the past few years, Xu Yaqing flagged down a taxi and went home.

When she got home, Ye Feng had already prepared dinner and the whole family was waiting for her.

“Yaqing, don’t you know what Xu Tian is thinking?” Song Qian asked before Xu Yaqing could sit down.

Xu Liang had already told Song Qian about what happened at the company.

“He wants to drive me out of the Xu family so that I won’t get a share of the assets.”

“You agreed even though you knew?! Are you stupid?”

“Mom, I can get the contract. Don’t you trust me?”

“It’s not that I don’t trust you, but this contract is too difficult to get. Aren’t you pushing yourself into a fire pit?”

“Mom, since Yaqing dares to take this job, then she’s surely confident.”

Ye Feng tried to persuade Song Qian.

“What does this have to do with a piece of trash like you? Do you understand any of this? Stop interrupting.”

As soon as Ye Feng spoke, Song Qian exploded like a fused bomb that had been lit.

“I just feel that you can trust Yaqing. After all, Yaqing wouldn’t do something she isn’t confident in.”

“Alright, you still dare to talk back?! Do you not know who this family listens to? It wouldn’t be you who asked Yaqing to take this assignment this time, right?”

“Yes, it really is me because I believe in Yaqing’s ability, and she’s able to accomplish it.”

Ye Feng’s nonchalant explanation made Song Qian even more agitated.

“Sure enough, you are a jinx. You don’t know anything and only know how to blindly command. Watch how I tear your mouth apart today.”

Song Qian raised her hand to slap Ye Feng, but Ye Feng grabbed her hand.

“I’m very annoyed these days. Leave me alone.”

Ye Feng had been troubled by the Ye family’s affairs for the past few days, and now Song Qian was going to make a scene and slap him. Ye Feng couldn’t bear it anymore.

Song Qian looked at Ye Feng’s eyes and nodded subconsciously. She felt that if she didn’t agree, she would be killed by this good-for-nothing son-in-law.

Ye Feng returned to his room without eating.

Not long after, he heard Song Qian crying in the living room and mentions of divorce.

Ye Feng was at a loss for words. In the past few years, Song Qian would try to get Xu Yaqing to divorce him whenever something happened.

He opened the window, lit a cigarette, and sat on the windowsill to smoke.

After a while, Xu Yaqing also walked in.

“My mom is always like that. But she wants the best for us.”

“It’s okay. It’s my fault this time. I didn’t control myself.”

“Why do you think I’ll definitely get the contract?” Xu Yaqing asked curiously.

“I can’t tell you that. I’ll tell you when the time comes.”

When she heard Ye Feng say this, Xu Yaqing didn’t say anything else.

This was a tacit understanding between the two of them.

“By the way, don’t wait for me at that roadside stall anymore.”

Ye Feng was stunned. He didn’t expect Xu Yaqing to know.

“Just wait for me in the company lobby. You can come pick me up every day.”

Ye Feng remained silent.

“Are you willing?”

“Of course I’m willing,” Ye Feng said.

Xu Yaqing felt a little guilty as she looked at Ye Feng who was now nodding furiously.
