My Wife, The Ice Queen President

Chapter 217: Chapter 0217: Hitting One with a Brick (First Update)_1
 

Xiao Fangfang was already beautiful enough.

Dressed in pink high heels, her hair dyed light red and styled into wavy curls, she wore a pair of red-framed glasses. Amidst her intellectual charm, there was a touch of allure. Her scream had an erotic undertone; its pitch was particularly high, and just the sound of it could bring a man to climax.

Ye Xiong’s face turned dark. If you’re going to be a vegetable, do you have to scream that loud?

“Vegetables don’t need to eat?” Ye Xiong rolled his eyes.

No sooner had he spoken than he felt he was stating the obvious. Of course, a vegetable didn’t need to eat.

“When did you wake up?” Xiao Fangfang came over, excitedly asking, “I went to the hospital to see you not long ago. You looked so terrible then, pale as a ghost, like a dead person.”

Ye Xiong’s face turned green. Can’t a person eat in peace?

“I just woke up and felt a bit hungry, so I ran out to find something to eat,” Ye Xiong replied.

Xiao Fangfang and Yang Xinyi were best friends, and they shared everything. Probably she would tell Yang Xinyi the moment she turned around, so he absolutely couldn’t reveal the truth to her.

“I guessed you just woke up. Think about it, Xinyi took care of you for a month, yet she missed the moment you woke up, but I ran into you instead. It’s destiny!” After saying this, Xiao Fangfang sat down next to him and asked, “You don’t mind if I sit here, do you?”

“Go ahead!”

What man wouldn’t be pleased with the company of a beautiful woman?

“Why don’t you call Xinyi? She’ll be thrilled to know you’ve woken up,” Xiao Fangfang said.

“It’s the middle of the night. I don’t want to disturb her sleep. I’ll tell her tomorrow,” Ye Xiong replied.

“You’re really considerate!” Xiao Fangfang sighed.

“Boss, another bowl and a couple of stir-fried dishes, please,” Ye Xiong called out.

“Sure thing!”

The proprietress ran over and asked, “Handsome, what would you like to add?”

“Uh…” Ye Xiong didn’t know what to order at that moment.

“How about the scallion chicken you ate last night?” the proprietress suggested.

Ye Xiong broke out into a sweat.

“If you don’t like that, how about a plate of the ‘No-see-um’ from the night before?” the proprietress continued to ask.

“Boss, you’ve got the wrong person. This is my first time eating here,” Ye Xiong hastily explained.

“Come on, handsome, don’t joke with me. A man as handsome as you is like a firefly in the dark; how could I ever mistake you?” To prove her exceptional memory, the proprietress counted on her fingers, “The night before last, you ordered a plate of ‘No-see-um,’ stir-fried noodles, stir-fried snails, a bowl of rice, and drank two bottles of beer; last night, you had a scallion and garlic chicken…”

If being handsome was a crime, Ye Xiong felt his offenses were monstrous. Damn it, with such a high turnover of people here, how could she remember him?

“Boss, why haven’t I ever seen the boss?” Ye Xiong instinctively asked.

“He died in a car accident last year, alas…”

Well, Ye Xiong finally understood why she remembered him so clearly.

She was definitely trying to make him take the boss’s place, wasn’t she?

“Handsome, what will it be?” the proprietress persisted.

“Ask her.”

Ye Xiong covered his face with one hand and pointed at Xiao Fangfang with the other.

Why cover his face? Obviously, because he was too embarrassed to show it.

He could imagine that once Xiao Fangfang told Yang Xinyi on the phone that he had woken up two days ago, what Yang Xinyi would do to him.

Xiao Fangfang carelessly ordered two dishes. After the proprietress left, she looked at him with a playful expression, torn between laughter and tears.

This was the first time in her life she had met such an odd man who had clearly woken up from a vegetative state and yet still lay in bed pretending. It made her feel both annoyed and amused.

“Um… Fangfang, can we talk about something?” Ye Xiong lowered his hand from his face, deciding to face the difficulty head-on.

Now, there are three methods to solve this.

The first is to kill, the second is to silence.

He couldn’t bring himself to kill, so he had to silence them.

“NO, NO…” Xiao Fangfang waved her finger, smiling, “Given my decade-long friendship with Xinyi, I would absolutely not do such a deceitful thing to her.”

“A thousand bucks?” Ye Xiong raised a finger.

“You, the son of one of the Capital City’s top ten tycoons, are trying to silence my mouth with just a thousand?” Xiao Fangfang was nearly infuriated to death.

He had revealed his identity to her, so Yang Xinyi probably knew all his secrets—did Xiao Fangfang know as well?

Did Xinyi tell her about him possessing a sky-soaring mighty weapon?

“What will it take for you to shut up?” Ye Xiong didn’t beat around the bush, deciding to be straightforward.

“I’m curious, why would you do this?” Xiao Fangfang asked with keen interest.

“Do you want to hear the truth?”

“Nonsense.”

“Then I’ll just say it.”

Ye Xiong recounted Yang Xinyi’s meticulous care and all those sweet words he had said.

“I’ve never been taken care of like this since I was little, and in my excitement, I decided to lie there for two more days, to experience the tenderness of a wife. That’s the reason.”

“I’m afraid it’s not just that, what about the other two women?” Xiao Fangfang asked.

“I can’t bear to part with them either,” Ye Xiong admitted honestly.

“How about this, I’ll ask you a question, and if you answer seriously, I might consider not telling Xinyi that you woke up long ago,” Xiao Fangfang suddenly said.

“Ask away!”

“Of these three women, which one do you like the most?” Xiao Fangfang asked.

Ye Xiong fell silent at once.

He liked all three women.

If he had to choose a favorite, Du Yuehua and Yang Xinyi would definitely be in the first tier, with Luo Weiwei slightly behind. But between Du Yuehua and Yang Xinyi, if he had to choose, which one would it be?

“Is it that hard to choose?” Seeing him silent for so long, Xiao Fangfang continued to ask.

“Ask me another question,” Ye Xiong said.

“Okay, let me ask you, if Du Yuehua and Xinyi both asked you to pick one of them to marry, whom would you choose?” Xiao Fangfang continued.

What’s the difference between this question and the previous one?

Ye Xiong rolled his eyes and said, “Ask me another question.”

“Fine, I’ll ask you one last question. If Du Yuehua and Xinyi both fell into the water at the same time, whom would you save?” Xiao Fangfang posed the third question.

“I’d pick up two bricks, bash one with each, then jump in myself to commit suicide. Are you satisfied with that answer?” Ye Xiong said irritably.

Xiao Fangfang suddenly clutched her belly, laughing so hard she bent forward and back.

In her excitement, her chest heaved with such enticing allure.

In Ye Xiong’s mind, a third alternative suddenly emerged other than killing or silencing.

If he got Xiao Fangfang into bed, she definitely wouldn’t dare to say anything to Yang Xinyi.

As this thought surfaced in his mind, Ye Xiong realized his smile had become wicked.

“What are you thinking about? Are you considering that if you get me into bed, you’ll be able to seal my lips?” Xiao Fangfang scoffed.

How could she know that? Could she be the worm in my gut?
