Chapter 1147: You Want Me to Get Lost?!
"Hmph!"
As soon as she heard Hao Jian speak, Zhao Yating's pretty face suddenly turned red, her heart pounding like a little deer. Then, she remembered something and hurriedly pulled her foot back from Hao Jian's embrace.
She glared fiercely at Hao Jian, then tidied her hair. Her beautiful eyes quickly returned to calm as she looked indifferently at Sun Bing and said, "Why are you here?"
"Just happened to pass by, so I dropped in for a meal. But I didn't expect to see this scene."
Sun Bing couldn't possibly admit that he had been monitoring Zhao Yating and had followed her, so he casually found an excuse to brush it off.
This damned bitch, so it turns out she was distant with me because she's having an affair with this punk here?!
Seeing the situation before him, Sun Bing was extremely angry. After all, Zhao Yating was a woman he had fallen in love with at first sight and regarded as his private treasure. How could he let another man touch her?!
But now this man wasn't just touching; he was blatantly taking advantage of her! Plus, in his eyes, Hao Jian wasn't even as handsome as he was. How could Zhao Yating possibly like him?!
"Isn't that the boss of the Singe Leather Company, who's been quite popular in Hua City lately?"
"Yes, it really is that boss..."
"What's he doing here at this time?"
As Sun Bing had recently gained a lot of attention, he felt better upon hearing the guests' chatter. He then displayed a proud look. Even though he was just the CEO, he held a certain amount of shares in the company, making him a shareholder, so being called the boss wasn't wrong.
He was a bit surprised that someone here could recognize him, though.
"Singe Leather Company?"
Hao Jian also heard the guests' discussions but had no impression of the company. Or rather, he really wouldn't pay attention to such "small companies."
"Hao Jian, this guy is a bit annoying..."
Seeing Sun Bing with his proud demeanor again, Zhao Yating's pretty face showed a hint of disgust. People who thought they were the best in the world just because they had some money were the ones she hated the most. Even as a member of the Zhao Family, she never intended to use her family's power for personal gain.
Instead, she always lived steadily, completely different from people like Sun Bing.
Then, Zhao Yating quietly told Hao Jian about some things regarding Sun Bing. In any case, for both her and Hao Jian, Sun Bing was just a minor character. Either the Zhao Family or Hao Jian could easily bring down Sun Bing's company in no time.
Although Hao Jian found it strange that Sun Bing, who had to be about thirty years old, knew Zhao Yating. After all, one was just a student, and the other was a company president; it was hard to imagine how they could have any connection.
Now that he heard Zhao Yating's explanation, Hao Jian understood, and his expression turned a bit odd, though more so that there was a hidden disdain in his eyes.
After waiting for a minute and seeing that neither Zhao Yating nor Hao Jian intended to speak, but instead were whispering to each other in front of him, Sun Bing couldn't stand it anymore.
"As the CEO, it's rare for me to have a meal outside. How about we share a table, Yating?" Sun Bing smiled at Zhao Yating, completely ignoring Hao Jian.
But Zhao Yating's next words made him have to reassess Hao Jian.
"If we share a table, you should ask him."
Zhao Yating threw this matter to Hao Jian to handle, not because she was afraid, but because she had no way to deal with Sun Bing. From the school gate at the beginning to standing here now, Sun Bing had bothered her countless times.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have run home. The third reason she returned home was because of Sun Bing. Whenever he had the time, he would wait at her school gate, leaving her helpless.
She even ate at the canteen for two or three days because of this, but she really didn't like the canteen food, so she sneaked out of school again. Yet every time she stepped out of the school, Sun Bing was there to greet her.
Due to this, rumors about her and Sun Bing started spreading throughout the school, even prompting Che Xiaoxiao to come back and ask her.
For Che Xiaoxiao, Zhao Yating was a rival in love. Now having a chance to eliminate a rival was something to seize, but Che Xiaoxiao also understood the matter with Zhao Yating was completely baseless.
Upon hearing that, Sun Bing's face froze for a moment, then he looked at Hao Jian with a strange expression and smirked, "I didn't realize this gentleman has such a unique fashion sense. Are you an artist?" The full series lives on My Virtual Library Empire (M|V|L0EMPYR).
"Or are you working in some other field? Otherwise, are you Zhao Yating's teacher?"
As soon as Sun Bing spoke, Zhao Yating's pretty face slightly changed. However, seeing Hao Jian's still smiling face, she quietly laughed.
"Me?"
Hao Jian sat on the chair, crossing his legs casually, and smirked at Sun Bing, "I would like to have a job, but no one dares to hire me!"
Hao Jian spread his hands and said, "I'm just an unemployed drifter now. What artist? I'm just a poor wretch."
"Moreover, look at how I'm dressed, and my age - am I qualified to be a teacher for Tingting?"
Both Hao Jian and Zhao Yating detected the subtle insult in Sun Bing's words, but Hao Jian pretended not to notice and replied indifferently.
His answer seemed genuine; given his current status, there are probably only a few people in Huaxia who could afford to employ Hao Jian or dare to employ him.
But in Sun Bing's ears, the words had another meaning. He showed disdain, smirked coldly, turned to Zhao Yating, and said, "Yating, since this guy has no job and no money, he's nothing but a lowlife. Why do you associate with such a person?"
Sun Bing's disdain was even more intense, no matter what low-status job Hao Jian might answer with, he could refute it while belittling Hao Jian to highlight his own superior status.
Zhao Yating, upon hearing this, suddenly turned angry, slammed her palm on the table, stood up fiercely, pointed her slender fingers at Sun Bing, her eyes burning with anger, and shouted, "Sun Bing, what are you talking about?! Get out!"
"If you want to come here to eat, I won't say anything. But if you're here to cause trouble, I won't let you off!"
To Zhao Yating, Hao Jian is her man, and now her man has been insulted by a suitor. How could she tolerate it?!
"You are nothing to me. You have no right to interfere with my affairs! Who I choose to be with is my own business, none of it concerns you!"
"Uh..."
Hao Jian was still thinking of teasing Sun Bing thoroughly to make him lose face, but unexpectedly, Zhao Yating cursed him with even more strength than Hao Jian himself could muster.
Her words didn't contain a single vulgarity yet were incredibly infuriating. Hao Jian felt as if he was meeting Zhao Yating for the first time and couldn't help but wonder, when did this girl master this skill?
After finishing, Zhao Yating's face still carried anger, but as she glanced at Hao Jian to see his expression, upon seeing Hao Jian's curious look, her face instantly blushed and she quickly turned away.
Even her rage had dissipated quite a bit.
This guy wouldn't hate me, would he?
Zhao Yating twisted her hands, feeling uneasy inside.
The situation didn't allow her to calm down, though. After hearing Zhao Yating's furious roar, Sun Bing's face darkened like water. He had never been treated like this by a woman before!
Who was he?! A company president worth billions! Those who saw him were always trembling in fear, even the beauties in his company were played with multiple times, and the secretary beside him was toyed with daily.
And now, just coming out to find another woman, he ended up being publicly insulted by her?!
"What... what did you say?!"
Sun Bing couldn't believe what he heard was true. Behind his water-darkened face was incredulity, his trembling finger pointing at Hao Jian, "You... You actually for such a man, a lowly scum, scold me and tell me to get lost?!"
"You actually told me to get lost?!"
Sun Bing's voice quivered tremendously, eyes wide with anger, and he shouted at Zhao Yating, "You filthy slut! Don't think you can do whatever you want just because I like you!"
"I... I, Sun Bing, am a high-profile figure worth billions! How... how could I possibly lose to such a despicable thing?!"
"Boom!"
Just as Sun Bing finished speaking, a huge hand suddenly enlarged in his pupils, followed by a powerful pain that almost made him faint, directly coming from his face.
Hao Jian slapped Sun Bing's face in an instant, the force directly sending him flying backward, finally crashing fiercely against a table, smashing that table into pieces.
"Bastard! You lowly thing, how dare you hit me?!"
Sun Bing clutched his torturously red and stinging face, eyes blazing red, he crawled up from the ground and roared angrily, "Kid, you're dead meat!"
"Dead meat?"
"Humph!"
Hao Jian snorted coldly and sneered, "I never engage in suicidal behavior, let alone for me, you're just an ant!"
After speaking, Hao Jian lifted his foot and viciously kicked Sun Bing, who had just rushed towards him trying to fight desperately, once again sending him flying.
"Ignorant fool, hurry up and leave! While I'm still in a decent mood, or else you'll suffer!"
