Hua Tang looked him in the eye.

“Thank you, Mr. Yin, but I prefer my own food. If there’s nothing else, I’ll get back to work. You should return to your office as well. If Bi Ying’er sees us having a private conversation, she’ll make a fuss again.”

“TangTang, are you so unwilling to talk to me?”

Yin Zhaoyang saw that his current approach wasn’t working, and then he had an idea. He chuckled and said to her, “Actually, that wasn’t a social invite; we’ll be dining with a client!”

Hua Tang stopped in her tracks, her gaze hesitant.

Yin Zhaoyang smiled. “The client is French. I checked, and you’re the only one in our company who minored in French when you were in university. ”

Hua Tang’s eyes showed slight interest, but she did not answer.

“This client was supposed to visit tomorrow but changed flights at the last minute. The translator I previously arranged can’t come today, so can you help me?”

Yin Zhaoyang continued to tempt her, “You won’t just be helping me; this will be good for you, too. Such connections are hard to come by.”

Hua Tang wanted to refuse, but he was right. The company had a limited number of foreign clients, and the client must be a high-quality resource to garner Yin Zhaoyang’s attention.

If she didn’t go, she might lose a potential client. Moreover, Yin Zhaoyang was a petty man. If she didn’t go, it would be tantamount to disobeying his orders. He might even cause trouble for her in the future.

They were going to a restaurant in public, so Yin Zhaoyang probably wouldn’t dare to get handsy with her.

Yin Zhaoyang saw she was wavering and promptly added, “If we can negotiate this deal, you’ll get a commission. What do you think?”

Hua Tang pursed her lips and nodded in agreement.

Before long, she arrived at a nearby hotel with Yin Zhaoyang. There were indeed two blond and blue-eyed men waiting there.

Hua Tang greeted them in fluent French and did her best to translate. The Frenchmen were also very impressed with her capability. After a meal, they already had a preliminary intention to cooperate.

Only then did Hua Tang smile as if she had been relieved of a heavy burden. She took the initiative to raise her glass gracefully and wished both parties happy cooperation.

This scene happened to be witnessed by Yu Chidong, who was passing by.

Only now did he seriously regard Hua Tang. He had met many beautiful women in the past, but Hua Tang gave off a different feeling from them all.

‘She does have a distinct charm. No wonder Fu Yong delayed his plans to return to Haicheng City…’

Yu Chidong chuckled and took out his phone to make a call.

“Fu Yong, I had an appointment with someone at the Huifeng Hotel, and I saw your wife again!”

There was no response on the other end of the call.

The silence was Fu Yong’s norm, but it didn’t stop Yu Chidong from continuing, “I didn’t know Hua Tang speaks French. She kept that close to her chest… The man sitting next to her is that senior of hers, right? He looks a little sleazy and not gentle at all. He had his hand resting on the back of her chair the whole time…”

“The address,” Fu Yong demanded.

“Hmm?” Yu Chidong asked.

The voice on the other end of the phone suddenly turned cold as Fu Yong snapped out, “Don’t make me repeat myself!”

Yu Chidong heard him clearly this time and immediately sent his location to Fu Yong. Then, he let out a long sigh of relief.

…

Hua Tang sent the two foreign businessmen to the hotel entrance and was about to return for her bag when Yin Zhaoyang suddenly grabbed her wrist.

Yin Zhaoyang was slightly drunk, and his gaze was indecent as he said to her, “You didn’t eat your fill just now, did you? Let’s go back and get more food. My treat…”

“No need.” Hua Tang tried to break free but failed.

Yin Zhaoyang gripped her wrist tightly, and his eyes roved over her body. “TangTang, you don’t know how beautiful you are…”

Hua Tang struggled against him and cried, “You’ve had too much to drink! I’m going back.”

During the fray, she reached into her pocket with one hand.

“I’m not drunk!” Yin Zhaoyang pulled her into his arms. “TangTang, I’ve never forgotten you… You’re a hundred times prettier than Bi Ying’er! If it weren’t for the fact that her uncle was a shareholder, I wouldn’t have reduced myself to dating her. If you’re willing to be with me, I can give you anything except marriage!”

“You slept with the director to sign a client. If you sleep with me, I can also give you a client…”

“Ah!” Yin Zhaoyang screamed as he was attacked before he could finish his sentence.

Hua Tang was stunned. Immediately after, a tall figure stood behind her.

After a few muffled sounds of blows hitting flesh, Yin Zhaoyang fell to the ground and cried out in pain.

“Since you have a filthy mouth, I’ll help you keep it shut!”

At the familiar voice, Hua Tang’s tense nerves instantly relaxed. She threw herself into his warm embrace and hugged his waist tightly with both arms.

She pressed her face against his chest and felt a sense of security when she heard his strong heartbeat.

She even had the time to space out and wonder, ‘He saw everything just now, right? I hope he doesn’t think I was hooking up with another man behind his back!’
