My Wife, The Ice Queen President - Chapter 18: How Are You Going To Thank Me?

A furious voice cried out while he was halfway through taking off his clothes. “What are you doing?”

“Why are you so alarmed. We’re both adults with needs.” Ye Xiong continued undressing. He soon had his shirt off, revealing his fit body. “Don’t worry I won’t tell anyone that you’ve bent the rules for me.”

“Pervert!” Du Yuehua screamed as she stared at him. “Either put your shirt on or don’t blame me for being cruel.”

Ye Xiong looked at Du Yuehua. She was glaring so angrily that her eyes were about to pop out. She seemed to be furious.

He immediately put his shirt on and asked softly, “President Du, what are you trying to achieve here?”

“That’s what I’m supposed to be asking you. Why did you take off your shirt out of the blue? What do you take me for? A prostitute?” Du Yuehua asked irately.

‘I didn’t take you for a prostitute, just a lonely widow who hasn’t been satisfied.’

“President Du, I thought you’re…”

“Did you think that because my man has passed away, I’ve turned into a lonely widow who hasn’t been satisfied? Did you think that you could use this opportunity to take advantage of me?” Du Yuehua started tearing up.

Ye Xiong did not expect her to start crying so suddenly. Nothing matched his expectations, so he immediately tried to explain. “I didn’t mean it that way. It’s just… Sigh. I don’t know how to put it into words.”

“Just tell me the truth!” Du Yuehua took out a tissue paper to wipe her tears.

“Then I’ll just be straightforward. Your hotel costs at least one hundred million dollars, right?” Ye Xiong asked.

……

“So, you knew it costs at least one hundred million dollars. Why did you offer one million dollars then?” Du Yuehua asked angrily.

“That’s exactly my point. Many people have come to negotiate but you wouldn’t entertain them. However, you’re interested in me even though I only offered you one million dollars. In fact, you seem pretty happy just to be talking to me. I don’t have any good values except for being handsome. Think about it, in this situation, what else am I supposed to think?” Ye Xiong explained.

Pfft!

Du Yuehua could not help but burst into laughter.

After she gave it some thought, this guy’s explanation did not seem unreasonable at all.

“Don’t you recognize me?” Du Yuehua stared at Ye Xiong skeptically and reminded him. “We met one week ago on Construction Street ¹ .”

Ye Xiong looked at Du Yuehua’s face and the light bulb in his head lit up. He finally recognized her.

It was that lady. He had saved her from that Porsche the other day. He was in a rush back then and her face was drenched in blood. That was the reason why he had not recognized her immediately. Now that he had heard her out, he finally remembered everything.

“It’s you.” Ye Xiong was astounded.

This meant that the reason she was willing to talk to him was not his domineering aura or the fact that he was handsome. She was willing to bend the rules for him because he was her savior.

“I believed that the guy who left quietly after saving me would be a big hero. I didn’t expect him to…” Du Yuehua stopped. Anyone could tell that she was disappointed by her tone of voice.

“President Du, I wasted all my energy pulling you out from the car. You’ve no idea just how terrifying that scene was. It was shocking and incredibly dangerous…” Ye Xiong described the situation. His mouth did not stop there. “If it wasn’t for me, you’d definitely be dead. Hence, shouldn’t you show a little appreciation to me?”

“What do you want?” Du Yuehua had a bad feeling.

“In order to thank me, your savior, shouldn’t you hand over the hotel to me? Naturally, I won’t let you hand it over for free. I’ll still give you the one million dollars…”

“Enough!”

Du Yuehua felt that she might go crazy if she kept listening to him.

He planned to take over a hotel that was worth one hundred million dollars with just one million dollars. She had never seen such a shameless man in her life. Could he be more shameless than this?

“I’ve got an idea. I won’t sell the hotel for now. Instead, you can help me manage it. This one million dollars of yours will be considered the shareholding fee. I’ll give you twenty percent of the hotel’s profits if it makes money. If not, your one million dollars will be wasted. What do you say?” Du Yuehua asked.

“About that, isn’t twenty percent a little bit too low?” Ye Xiong pondered for a moment before showing her five fingers. “Let’s split the profits in half.”

“Fine. I’ll accept your demands.”

Ever since her husband had passed away, Feiyang International Hotel often got vandalized by people. They were also losing money daily since eighty to ninety percent of their customers had fled. She would not mind giving Ye Xiong half of the profits if his management could turn the hotel around.

“President Du, verbal promises are empty promises. Shouldn’t we sign a contract?” Ye Xiong was like a magician as he pulled out a contract from behind his back.

Du Yuehua looked at it and was shocked.

It was a management contract, stating that Ye Xiong would be managing the hotel and any profits would be split between them. However, there were a few things left blank that needed to be filled in.

From the very beginning, this guy’s main objective had been to get hold of the hotel’s management rights.

It seemed that she had underestimated this guy.

Du Yuehua laughed as she filled in the amount of profit-sharing and the management rights without any hesitation. However, she remained the highest authority in the company and could fire Ye Xiong at any given moment if the hotel was not making any money.

As Du Yuehua signed the last page, Ye Xiong picked up the contract and burst into laughter.

“I’m rich. I’m going to be rich.” Ye Xiong was going crazy.

“Don’t be too happy just yet. I’ll have you know that the hotel is currently operating at a loss. If managed incorrectly, your one million dollars will go down the drain.” Du Yuehua reminded.

“President Du, why don’t we make a bet?” Ye Xiong giggled.

“A bet?”

“If I can turn the hotel around within three months, will you fulfill one of my requests?” Ye Xiong said.

“What do you want?” Du Yuehua refused to believe that he would succeed.

Ye Xiong looked at her mature appearance. This kind of lady was the most lethal for a guy like him. At first, he was going to tell her to sleep with him for a night, but he soon realized that that request was too shameless. Hence, he switched it to something else. “If I win, you’ll have to kiss me.”

“Pervert!” Du Yuehua scolded.

“What’s wrong? Are you scared? Are you scared that you’ll fall in love with me if you kiss me?” Ye Xiong giggled.

“Who says I’m scared. Fine, I’ll kiss you.” Du Yuehua refused to believe that she would lose. “What if you can’t make it? What will you do?”

“If I fail, I’ll sleep with you for a night without any conditions. I won’t even accept any money from you,” Ye Xiong replied seriously.

“Get lost!”

Du Yuehua threw the document right at him.

Ye Xiong had a contract in his hand by the time he left Du Yuehua’s office. He was over the moon.

When he found Wang Tong, the latter was chatting happily with Lil Mei. The two were laughing and looked extremely close.

“Did I come by at the wrong time?” Ye Xiong entered the healing ward as he smiled.

Lil Mei immediately put away her smile when she saw Ye Xiong entering. “Lil Bean, I’m taking my leave now.”

“Have a safe walk. Hah!” Wang Tong waved his hand as he sent her off with a perverted look.

When did the two of them become so close to each other?

Ye Xiong thought that his flirting skills were amazing. Who would have thought that he was trash when compared to Wang Tong.

“You’re amazing. You’re even able to conquer this Lil Mei who has a climacteric syndrome. I’m incredibly impressed. Just look at her flirtatiousness, she seems to be in love.” Ye Xiong giggled.
