Chapter 8: Confrontation

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

He Dong arrived just in time to witness the lovey-dovey couple feed each other intimately.

They were nicely dressed for the occasion and their looks weren’t half bad. From afar, they looked like an ideal couple.

He Dong came up with tons of hypotheses in the car. He wanted to persuade himself that Huang Ruobing was merely dining with a friend, so he never expected to walk in on such a scene.

He Dong was aware of what their engagement was based on, and for this reason, he didn’t think that Huang Ruobing would try to embarrass him publicly. When He Dong came to know of their engagement, he had thought of Huang Ruobing as his possession. As for whether or not Huang Ruobing objected to their marriage, he couldn’t care less. But this still didn’t mean that he would allow her to flirt with others in public.

“B*tch, how dare you!”

At this point, He Dong’s gentlemanly manners had practically been tossed out of the window. He furiously marched over to the couple and raised his hand at Ye Yang.

Although it may have appeared like it, he didn’t actually intend to hit Huang Ruobing. He Dong knew that if he laid a finger on her, the Huang family would never let him off so easily. Moreover, if news of him hitting a woman got around, he would become the laughing stock of his social circle.

No matter how terrible things get, on the surface, he had to maintain peace for the sake of the community. This was a principle He Dong understood well.

Hence, from He Dong’s perspective, Ye Yang was the best person to vent his frustrations on.

But how could Ye Yang just let himself be hit by someone else without retaliating?

As He Dong’s fist was milliseconds away from smashing Ye Yang’s face in, he effortlessly grabbed his assailant’s fist and smiled half-heartedly at him. “What? Trying to start a fight?”

By now, He Dong knew that he was no match for Ye Yang. He tried to pull his arm away from Ye Yang’s grasp, but to his surprise… it wouldn’t budge.

There was a hint of mockery in Ye Yang’s eyes as if he was laughing at He Dong’s powerlessness.

It was also this reason that triggered the impulsiveness in He Dong, who had initially thought about retreating. Instead of running away, he used his free hand to attack Ye Yang, or at least he tried to.

However, Ye Yang suddenly let go of his arm, and with a swift movement, he turned He Dong to the side. He Dong was caught off guard. Losing his balance, he ended up falling flat on his face inside the restaurant.

Huang Ruobing who had been watching the fight unfold from the sidelines couldn’t resist giggling like a giddy schoolgirl.

Since Huang Ruobing had announced that Ye Yang was her boyfriend, almost everyone had been watching them carefully. There were quite a few busybodies that even deliberately came over to the restaurant, just to watch the drama.

When He Dong appeared, everyone’s attention basically zeroed in on them. Hence, when He Dong embarrassed himself, many people couldn’t resist the urge to burst out laughing.

However, they didn’t dare to laugh as loud as Huang Ruobing did.

With the support of his assistant, He Dong got up. He was naturally aware that everyone was laughing at him. And so, He Dong raised his voice to order the bodyguards behind him, “What are you standing there for? Get him!”

Unperturbed, Ye Yang glanced over at the bodyguards behind He Dong. He cracked his knuckles, eager to try out the moves he had mastered in the past.

But suddenly, Huang Ruobing chuckled icily. “Would anyone dare to take up the challenge?”

While the bodyguards served He Dong, they knew of Huang Ruobing’s relationship with their master, and this made them hesitate. They turned to look at He Dong.

“B*tch, how dare you shield him?!” He Dong was seething upon hearing Huang Ruobing’s words. But what she said next came down like a splash of cold water.

Huang Ruobing looked at He Dong. “Do you think this is a place where you can do as you please?”

Although the He family was influential, for such a high-class restaurant to be able to operate required just as much background support as they themselves had. If He Dong caused a scene here, the people running this establishment would definitely hold him responsible.

Upon hearing this, He Dong realized that he had no other options. After trying it out earlier, he acknowledged that he was certainly no match for Ye Yang.

The atmosphere suddenly fell silent. After a while, He Dong could be heard saying, “Just you wait.”

Then, he turned and left.

He Dong’s aggressive entry and exasperated exit were witnessed by many.

With a playful look in his eyes, Ye Yang said to Huang Ruobing, “From my perspective, it looks like he cares a lot about you.”

Ye Yang was leaning very close to Huang Ruobing. Under normal circumstances, Huang Ruobing would have been repulsed by such a behavior, but for some reason, she didn’t feel revolted by Ye Yang at all.

“Such concern is not something I can accept.” Huang Ruobing scoffed. She knew why He Dong was here, and Huang Ruobing was actually aware of He Dong’s intentions towards her.

The only miscalculation on He Dong’s part was that Huang Ruobing wasn’t an ignorant rich young lady. Instead, having received an excellent education and being capable of shouldering the Huang family’s business in Riverside City, Huang Ruobing was more than competent. She was a woman with authority.

After this incident, Ye Yang knew that He Dong completely despised him now. But Ye Yang didn’t really care.

Having been trapped in a ten thousand year loop, it wasn’t like Ye Yang didn’t have any women. Quite the contrary, in fact, as he had his fair share of them.

With his already charming looks, many women were willing to have flings with him, to begin with. But after such a long time, Ye Yang gradually lost interest in these superficial one-night stands.

Instead, he began yearning for a real relationship.

For him to appear in Huang Ruobing’s world wasn’t only because he wanted to be her boyfriend in name. Ye Yang’s target had been her all along. He was hoping to show her his most excellent side so that Huang Ruobing would come to like him. Instead of being like He Dong, who only knew how to behave in a way that Huang Ruobing despised.

Also, in his quest to obtain Huang Ruobing’s affection, Ye Yang was already opposing He Dong’s goals. No matter what Huang Ruobing thought of Ye Yang, Ye Yang was destined to be He Dong’s rival in the war of love.
